I don't use this, or anything like it. I tried it once, but the trouble is I have 9 separate water buckets that get filled daily and I'd go through it "like water". I find antlers and bones work better and last a long time. So, that's what we use.
Well, I was full of sh*t - literally! LOL! I weighed 202.2 again this morning. A few minutes later nature called. After a productive visit to the commode, I weighed again and had dropped down to 201.6. LOL! I'm going with the second weight of the morning!
I slept way too late today, but I went to bed way too late last night. It is true - one can't hoot with the owls at night and expect to soar with the eagles at dawn.
UGH.... It is tax day here in CA. I always hate paying property taxes. I seem to get so very little for what is charged. I'm sure that is one of the many reasons CC fled to AZ!
I am having some trouble being productive this week. I have things that I should be doing and am unmotivated. I am vowing to make today a productive day. I am chocking up my malaise to the winter chill (makes me want to stay in and be "cozy"), retirement adjustment (lack of daily structure), and family Christmas traditions disappearing (Dad's declining mental state and brother's distance have led to our lifetime family traditions falling by the wayside).
Liz, I bet you are looking forward to alone time! I know I would be!
I am hoping for a Winning Wednesday!
Greetings all
Sun this morning but now the fog is back. Ho hum. Today's plans include a visit to the gym and then the studio. Glad I got all the errands done yesterday. No clue on tonight's dinner so a drive by to the hippie dippy grocery may occur. I would love a pot pie but DH has decided he does not like the ones from this store.
So DH has had a flurry of packages arriving. Another exercise device that I can't figure out but he says it helps do deep squats. He has become very concerned about loss of leg strength and balance so his solution is to acquire devices sold to help those issues. A "step" - like from old step aerobics has arrived. I actually would sort of like to use that one as it is a low step. Anyway I have advised him that he needs to get rid of junk from his office to make a usable desk and exersise area for this stuff. He say oh yes of course. We shall see.
So Liz the "Sister act" is coming to a close. Nice to have your home back for a bit. Home alone time is valuable.
CC glad the vent project is done and that the other things are moving along. I am posting a picture of this dog breath product that seems to work. Peps have you tried this stuff? (on your dogs I mean, not you LOL).
Paula I have wondered about Hello Fresh and other such services. We will be interested to hear if it is worth while. I think CC liked Hungry Root.
Our nephew with the new baby turned 44 today. Yikes I remember when he was 12. Time flies.
Time to get moving and, as DD says, make a mortgage payment.

yay for this. But I might have had a few words with that designer. ds
hahahah lord knows what he calls me. Actually he is a very refined gentleman who is a walking dictionary!

Re the fountain... I don't think it would need to be drained and cleaned very often when it's on all the time. Maybe once a year if that? But being stagnant for two months making it attractive to wild animals sure made a mess!

Last full day with the sisters! Hopefully the sun is back out so they can get a last beach day. Then tonight they are taking us out for one last dinner. I am looking forward to staying home alone tomorrow night though DH is going out with some golf buddies.
Today I may or may not make it to the beach if they go. I have water aerobics this morning, then Justice has a vet appointment at noon to get his shots updated. But first his usual long walk.
Have a welcoming Wednesday!

I haven't tried Hello Fresh yet because we just haven't been on any kind of schedule this year. Not sure if/when that will happen next year either.
Good luck with the new hairdresser. That's always a critical choice!

Anna does sound a bit nuts - I don't think I could tolerate her. Good news on the "attic" cleanout! Always nice when you know your former treasures are going to someone who will enjoy them. But yuck on the fountain. Gross cleanup. Maybe you should have them on a regular cleaning schedule?
