145.3. Down a smidge.
Weather getting colder again, tomorrow it will be below zero with wind chill. Yuck!
Most of the outdoors decorations are going up today (thanks to DH). Have 2 white lighted trees that should be delivered tomorrow to add to the mix.
Homemade chicken noodle soup for dinner! Perfect for a cold day!
Not much else to report. Take care all!

118.2 I realized that I will be north on my normal shot day. I don't feel like bringing it since I will be back home by 10 am the following day so I will just delay for a day.
I have started to pack for the short trip. If I have extra room I will bring some gifts I purchased here to go to SIL's where my ordered stuff is going. That way we will have less to bring the following week. I will pick it up the day after I return north.
After I get home I will only have 5 days before we go north for Christmas. Need to figure out what day to do Christmas with DH and I want to fit in a small ****tail party with a couple of neighbors and friends. I wish my missing chair would turn up... Time to call again today.
Today is going to be a beautiful, warm day. Justice has an appointment with his new vet and DH has an echocardiogram. Possibly a beach club visit in between, then dinner at an outside restaurant on the beach.
I wish the holiday felt more restful but I don't think that is happening anytime soon. Have a totally calm Tuesday!

It never occurred to me that people working in schools actually weren't supposed to leave mid-year but now that I think about it it makes sense. Back in time we didn't see staff leave mid-year except for health reasons. It does sound like a good time to be leaving. Sometimes life makes certain decisions like retirement easier.

Ron and I watched Man on the Inside and LOVED it!!!! We watched an episode or two per night over a week's time. I'm quite happy another season is in the works!
Classroom teachers seem to be the only ones that adhere to the old school year rule where I am. Support staff - even credentialed - seem to come and go throughout the year without a thought to consistency for the students. At one school we are on the THIRD speech pathologist for THIS school year!!!!! And this one only sees them remotely on Zoom while a para sits in the room with the student. WTF???? I want that gig! LOL!
Funny!

Yes, usually just twice a year for the full drain and refill. Weekly chems much like a pool!

LOL on the dogs and pot roast. When I made slow-cook pasta fagioli a couple of weeks ago the dog had to smell it all day too. He seemed ravenous at dinner that night.

As I recall a Dexa scan also measures muscle percentage? I had one after I reached my VSG goal. That was also when I had the test that measured how many calories I needed for maintenance. I bet your muscle percentage will be much higher than average!
