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.

Maybe you need a treadmill there at the gallery LOL.

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).

Wow! You were energized for sure!

Calories as in -necessary burn able energy nuggets - I guess sometimes for me, calories are just that- calories- no matter the source. Thanks.
Greetings all
dull day at the gallery. Not one person has come in. I was listening ro some mediocre music decided to listen to all of Les mis instead. Crossword puzzle done and local shrimpy paper reviewed. Did some walking and will do more.
grateful that you all have lots to report. Liz your dd is indeed being proactive on health issue. Hope that continues. Information is your friend. Hours on a beach sounds grand. Unlike hours at home which are taken by tv or snacking, beach is healthy relaxation.
y'all are on a clean out binge cc, peps and all. Yay y'all. Good reminder to us all that it can be done. Getting started is 90%.
bonnie sorry your bil took a fall. Good for you all for helping. Will he need to consider moving.? Not a thing to look forward to.
dd glad the parent visit was good and that your dh defused the ranting. Blesses relief.
i mixed the chicken with some veggies and orzo last night. Dh was happy. Me too.
well sorry for crappy typing. One finger with less than ideal vision is recipe for errors.
looking forward to Oscar's tonight and to getting out of here in 3 hours. Feels like detention.
