I check in every day, but am not participating as much as I intend. I want to correct that ! 139.6 and steady. I am safe from the wild fires, the one that is contained is just south of me and the big 30% contained one is about 15 miles north. Air is very smoky, but no evacuation orders. I have still not received my electric trike. "It may be lost". How do you lose a 85 lb. trike ? One of my cases closed and I picked up another one. I'm still invigorated by my Guardian ad Litem experiences. I can see how DSS caseworkers burn out, though !

Paula and Devon, your photos and successes have been inspirational ! DD and Devon, congratulations on your progress towards retirement ! Liz, praying for an excellent outcome for DD. CC, love your totems and cleaning stories ! Miss 150, it's nice of you to share Swann's therapy dog presence. Diane, I like Paula's idea of a treadmill at the studio ! Anne, can't wait to see renovation photos !

I treasure all of you !!

Still seems weird that it is March already.

Yesterday I was terrible at golf again. My practice session on Friday was great but I was making all my old mistakes yesterday. Especially at the end after we ended up having to wait 5-10 minutes at each hole because the 4 ladies ahead of us were incredibly slow. The wind was blowing at 22 MPH from the north at that point and the sun was low so I got frozen sitting there. I didn't even finish at the last hole - just took the max for that hole.

But we had a good dinner out with our friends. Need to eat home a bit more this week though we have a couple of events on the calendar.

Today is Justice walk, water aerobics, ? In the middle of the day, then a thank you party for people who volunteered at the tennis tournament last month in late afternoon. It is at a model home in the new section of our community so that should be interesting.

Have a minimal Monday!

BIL is lucky to have you and DH to help him. Those projects will get done eventually. It's nice to have alone time and just enjoy it sometimes.

Sounds like a good visit was had. DH has quite a skill in maneuvering the conversation.

Much energy in this group today between you and CC.

Memories about DD still do make me sad but I have certainly learned to live with that. When it is your child you always miss them and what their future would have been like. Much more profound than losing a parent or a sibling (since I have had those losses as well).

Calories as in -necessary burn able energy nuggets - I guess sometimes for me, calories are just that- calories- no matter the source. Thanks.
