We really haven't encountered a lot of that in our community for the most part and there are a lot of people who are very well-off. Some self-made, some family money. But there are cliques to some extent (though they let you "in" if you attend enough similar activities).

Her idea is overblown. Have your cookie exchange anyway. It'll be a lot more fun and relaxed. BTW, where I come from, we'd just call her a *****!

122.1. About the same I think!

Yes, 2 more full days here and then we will take off early Wednesday morning.

Game day (night) for us today. It's going to be freaking cold! Layers will be my friend but might not be enough!

Tomorrow is POD load day. Most of the stuff is already in the garage so hopefully it will go quickly especially with the help we have hired!

Sorry about your inconsiderate neighbor's Liz. You two should definitely have been invited. I've heard rumblings of some of that kind of behavior in the community we are moving to. A friend of a friend lives in a newer section of the community where the homes are a *****eaper and smaller (since that's what the builder's can sell right now) and she indicated that some of the residents in the older sections have a we are are better than you attitude. I sure hope not! We are all equal humans no matter what our bank accounts say or what our former jobs were!

A few more days of high 70s, then fall/winter arrives in the form of low 50s and maybe some rain for a stretch. I will soak it up and convertible away!

Today I need to go to the DMV (I always forget what they call it here - MVD? Motor vehicle division). I paid off my SUV and they sent me a CA title that I need to have switched to AZ. I also have several phone calls to make, which I despise doing. And I need to wash dirty Kirby. He's not a stinky dog (we've had goldens who get smelly), but he doesn't smell or feel clean either.

I might go to Costco too, don't know... I'm a third of the way there at the MVD (honestly, MVD just sounds wrong)

Take care!

This may be one of those moments where being the more generous person is the better route, despite your feelings being understandably hurt. First, if your exclusion was intentional (which I don't think it was, seems more thoughtless rather than malicious), then you inviting them shows it didn't have the intended effect. Second, kill them with kindness. It's hard not to like people that are nice to you... Either way, it makes you the more magnanimous good guys.

117.8

Apparently the 40 degree low for today which I thought started this morning won't happen until close to midnight. It is about 72 right now and the temperature is supposed to drop throughout the day. Tomorrow morning it will be 40 with a high of about 60. Brrr...

Yesterday we had a good time watching the Patriots win at the Beach Club. Good group of New England fans there and a great atmosphere to watch it in.

Today I have water aerobics (lucky that it isn't 40), then a dermatology appointment mid-day to check the filler around my mouth to see if I need more. I think I do but we shall see what they say. It is definitely better than before the filler but looks like it could use more. This dermatologist likes to do it this way to make sure it doesn't get overdone which I am glad about.

I need to think of something to make for dinner. Maybe pot roast like Diane? I haven't made one for so long (not sure I have a slow cooker though - will have to check in the cabinets). Have a momentous Monday!

Pot roast - yumm. This might be the week to make some of that here. It is going to a bit nippy down here for a few days.

Yes, we are in a condo so the neighbor's doorway is next to ours on the 3rd floor landing. The party was sort of an open house (from what I was told) because people started stopping in around 5. At its height, the people spilled out onto the walkway which is how we ran into some of our friends. And the lanais are all staggered in the back so you can't easily see in them but you can hear people out there which is why we were kept up that night until about midnight because of the noise from the lanai. Anyway, as pointed out apparently these people that so many think are delightful don't care much about how we feel. Oh well... Can I be just as rude and not invite them to a building gathering? Somehow I don't think I can but maybe it will be at a time when they aren't here.

Sounds like a perfect beach plan in Brazil. Can't wait to hear all about it. Coming soon, so winter will be behind you for a while anyway.
