Greetings all
Sun is out big and it's almost hot. I went to the gym to resume walking. Mid day is definitely the geezer hour. Hardly anyone there. Works for me and no grunting. After that I stopped in at the hair salon to make an appointment as no one there answers the phone. I have a new person as the previous one is gone. Works for me. I am no longer fussy about my hair and just need it chopped. Also stopped at the hippie food store and got a pot pie and a few other items. I carefully inspected all of the cookies from the bakery but bought none. Was craving some kind of comfort food like cookies and milk but overall, gluten free does not cut it. Settled for just the milk.
We turned off the tv at about 9;30. Not happy with the election and DH is downright despondent. I told him to take a dog and go walking since it really is lovely. Next I will allow him to watch whatever stupid sci fi alien show he wants.
I also worked on our lease counter proposal. Someone came up with some good comparable so will use that. Hoping for progress.
Well CC, so Kirby has a girlfriend! Well Kirby, enjoy the feeling while it lasts. Chop chop.
Bonnie fresh made tahini! What a gift. No clue how to make that stuff. Enjoy.
Liz I think Disclosure is on Apple tv. We have run though the available episodes. Enjoy water aerobics.
Not much else. Found a pot pie for tonight. Ultimate comfort food.

I was just thinking we hadn't had a good Kirby story in awhile. :)
True but very different viewpoints on other things too. And a lot more positions are elected vs appointed compared to Mass.

Unsurprising given Massachusetts is a "blue" state and Florida is a "red" state.
Congratulations!!
I was generally unhappy with most of the Florida results. Not quite like living in Massachusetts.

No basements here in Florida for the recent tornadoes. Most people hunkered down in their bathrooms.

I broke through! I logged 219.8. An achievement of which I am proud! I'm pleased that a focus on goals and not diet was the catalyst for kickstarting the weight loss.
I was not glued to election updates last night. I figured I'd know soon enough the outcome and I was right! California issues that I supported did well. Sort of no brainer issues like marriage freedom and getting tougher on crime (which is ridiculously lenient in CA!). The other two issues that did well, surprisingly, were the two health care issues on the ballot: one limiting how HMOs can use federal subsidies for drugs and the other ensuring medi-cal health care for low income families.
Not much else here. Focusing on the same old same old - dogs, retirement, organization and eating disorder recovery and weight loss.
132.0 bouncy bouncy....and totally ok with that
We've had over 6 inches of rainfall in the last few days as well as spending sometime in DS#1's basement during a tornado warning Monday ( no tornado, but did call attention to the fact we haven't covered a severe weather plan for the house). Kind of amusing my surprised confusion when the sirens went off and, ooopsie...there was no basement to trip down to and with solid banks of windows everywhere and virtually no interior rooms.
But the sun is out, at least for today and with nowhere or nothing important to do, here I set in the kitchen enjoying the view from those very windows that seemed so threatening while fresh made tahini awaits the garbanzo beans simmering on the stove for hummus. It is going to be a roasted vegetable, boiled egg and homemade pita bread kind of day.
There are things to do, places to be and people to see, but I have arbitrarily removed them from today's calendar and magically....No plans and will simply ostrich from the world and all its shenanigans.
Magically created winsome Wednesday!
