As you know, I am doing 2 mg a week by injecting 1 mg twice a week. It has worked great for me.

Glad to hear the inflammation is better. Too bad you couldn't sleep but I guess that is a pretty common side-effect.

131, up 1/2 lb. The scale is just messing with me! Today was shot day. I will be getting my next vial of 10 mg Tirzepatide tomorrow which will make a total of 3 that I have stashed. If I go down to 2 mg/week for maintenance, that will last me 15 months! Hoping that dose will work well for me!
Woman's Bible study this morning was good. DH just got home from work early and DC1 hanging out as usual. Not much else planned for the day except going out for fish for dinner!

Wowee, that prednisone had me flying. I could not sleep last night (yesterday was the first 6 pills) but it has definitely taken the inflammation from my chest.
Very overcast here. We were hoping that even if it was cool, the sun would be warm enough to sit by the pool for a bit. We don't need to leave for the airport until around 5pm.
It wasn't the same trip it has been before, but we did get some sun, I swam a bit, and we enjoyed hours on the lanai. Better to be sick here where I could go outside.
Following your directive Liz, and wearing multiple layers so I can have a thermal Thursday.

Good day yesterday in that most activities were accomplished though we were rained out of the second of two games (we won the first). Now we need to reschedule that other game. What a pain.
Today I play golf with the ladies. Very nervous as we are playing the one portion of the 2 courses here that I have never played on as it is the most difficult. Multiple holes require shots over mangroves. I don't think I am using my good balls this time. They do allow special rules for our league in that if you get the first shot in the mangrove you can start from the other side of the mangrove with only a minimal penalty (that's to keep people from getting stuck there for a long time).
Not much else going on other than figuring out dinner. It will be cool today after a very warm day yesterday. It was almost 85 yesterday and the high today will be 68 with a brisk north wind (63 when I start golf). I will need to dress warm.
Have a thermal Thursday!

Ooh, that era of Mercedes convertibles are gorgeous classics!! This is a 2024 Mercedes CLE. It comes tomorrow!
You go, girl! Ain't nothing like a sexy car!
DH has a red 1986 Mercedes 560SL convertible that's so sexy it should be illegal. We don't drive it in the winter, obviously, but it's a lovely go-out-to-dinner ride during spring, summer and fall. I could pick up 25-year-old guys in that car. And the old guys fall apart when they see it--it reminds them of their younger days when they were the ones doing the picking up. LOL!

Yay for a convertible! I love them! My car up north is a convertible (my 3rd).

All these years living in warm weather states and no convertible? Well it is high time for you to have one! Can't wait to see some pics of you in the fun car!

Hey all! Finish up my last few days with my folks here. They go home Saturday. I bought a second car! Totally not necessary, but it was uncomfortable being trapped without a car when my dad was in the hospital and I thought, what the heck, why not have a second fun car? It's my first convertible and my first lease. It should be delivered late this week or next (they traded with another dealership).
This morning I had a call with the HOA board as our exit gate is failing and partially needs to be rebuilt. Later, I get my new doggie totem and then we are going to a patron's event for the Sedona Art Center at a local private golf club my folks have really wanted to see inside of.
We've finished 2 seasons of Bosch. It's really good if you aren't as behind the times as we are and enjoy cop shows.
I think that's all for me. Take care! Glad you got medded up, DD!
