Haha!
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.

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.

Serving wine on golf courses and dog shows? Why wasn't I informed until just now?!
Greetings all
Checking in while my hair dries. It is another calm sunny day. I will be going to the gym shortly. I may try to get DH out to take a walk with our without dogs. Nice day for it. I still use the treadmill because I just feel safer - not likely to fall. Might stop in at an open house nearby.
Meanwhile, a pot roast is in the slow cooker and is starting to smell nice. Years ago when I was employed I would sometimes put a pot roast in, go to work and forget about it, and then open the door to a wonderful welcoming smell.
Hmmm Liz, those people should have invited you. CC is right - different than a formal dinner. Your building is not huge right? And I have been thinking about weight bearing exercise. What if you wore a small weight belt while walking Justice? Two activities at once. But yeah it seems absurd to try to add weight for any reason.
Paula two days right? How freeing! Looking forward to your adventures in moving.
Peps Best Puppy at Napa! A big deal and money!!! I met up with Peps at those shows years ago. The show where you buy a glass of wine and keep the glass and get refills. Still have mine. Good luck today.
DD glad to hear the beautiful buck will be spared. As you said, he didn't get that way by being foolish. How interesting that wildlife camera must be!. Stay warm.
Our team won last night and the new kid quarterback was quite good. There is hope for our team. I am so getting into college football I feel like I should talk to CC's Dad.
Well if I don't get moving soon I never will.
