15 degrees! Yuck! I feel cold when it is below 70 these days.

You must make criminally amazing banana bread! I used to travel to Seattle on business every 6 months and frequently I would purchase quite a bit of this great cheese from Beechers. Whenever I did, my bag was also searched. Probably looked like some sort of plastic explosive on the x-ray?

I love having my desk up against the window. Good that you got it fixed.

Aside from not liking the nail gun, I think he thinks this is his best week ever. Today he got big pets from 5 workmen and the 2 designers!

Glad you are feeling better CC!

12 Mohs surgeries, yikes. One was enough for me!!I agree, if you can prevention beats intervention any day!

Holy home repair Batman! How does Kirby do with all the commotion? Our dogs go crazy at first but usually settle down pretty quickly.

Boo on the shark winning scrabble again! Sounds like it was very close today! I guess there is always next time!

Enjoy the yum, yum sandwiches! Taco Tuesday sounds yummy too! I'm always down for Mexican!

121.2 today. Still good considering my old range was 125-130 and my new range is 120-125. I got a call from a health coach today (benefit through my health insurance). We discussed weight and fitness goals moving forward. Weight goal is as stated and fitness goal is to increase my resistance training to promote lean body mass and strength!

We had a window sill that had water damage and we were concerned about how far down the water had gone. Thankfully not into the walls but the contractor made us a new window sill (out of real wood, not the warped MDF he replaced). Our realtor down here has been wonderful for these types of referrals!

Now that the window is fixed, I am able to start to get my office in order (the desk butts up to the window so I wasn?t able to get things in place). Started to patch up nail holes and will paint over the patches in the next few days.

Got our first rain (but not much) since we moved here. I guess this is the drought season! I?m not complaining about sun and high 70?s to low 80?s.

Hello Fresh tonight. Barramundi Baja Bowls. They were very good. Last night was shrimp, asparagus and peas with ravioli in a creamy sauce and tomorrow will be one of my favs, chicken Schwarma in pitas. Yum!

I love that your Dad asked you how you would answer the question about his age instead of just asking how old am I? I also like his response that he doesn't know his age but knows his birth year and they could do the math if so inclined! Good days are the best!

Nice redirection on the dog inquiry!

Liz, I like your dermatologist's plan too. While recovery sounds like it will be more difficult than your recent procedure, your insurance will pay for it, it will help prevent skin cancer and your skin will look better (once it peels off!). Sounds like a win, win situation! Have fun with the SILs, glad they are fairly self sufficient!

DD, I'm so sorry your parents are being difficult about getting the help they need. Maybe attack it with the angle of once on Hospice all medicines, medical supplies and medical equipment are "free". She would most likely get at least weekly in home visits for care, maybe more! I was surprised at how much stuff we got and if more was needed, all I had to do was ask! I like that you tried to explain she is already on the journey even if she doesn't want to accept it!
