I assume you have your dress picked out? Doesn't it feel good to be back in a decent size?

Greetings all

There was a storm last night but it is sunny now. Had to wash my hair so I would not be revolting at the dentist. Also had to dash around to pick up studio payroll and get it delivered before the dental apt. All worked out. This was for the second half of the deep cleaning and all was fine. Took a chill pill which makes a big difference. Hope my stash is sufficient for the rest of the work I need this summer.

Aw CC poor Kirby! Sore feet and cone of shame. I am sure you know about those inflatable ones but maybe that is what he chewed. hoping for haling. And planting can sure be a recipe for a back ache. Take it slow.

Fire at your hotel DD! Not fun but sounds like all is well. The Civil rights exhibits must be so moving. I am old enough to remember the assassination of Dr. King and other events of that summer. Glad the history is preserved.

Peps yay you on 206. I bet that scan shows good things. You have worked hard and it shows. Nice going dude.

Water aerobics Liz. Time get to it indeed. And you know the best way to make pot roast is to just toss it into a slow cooker. I am like you - love the veggies.

So I have not gotten much done today due to driving around. No gym. Will get to it tomorrow. But at least dinner is determined - the omnipresent pot roast.

Cheers. Diane S

Back from our activities, after the morning excitement. The fire was in the restaurant kitchen, luckily on the other side of the building from us. First we stopped by the Peabody to see the ducks do their march from the elevator to the hotel fountain. It was a bit of serendipity, as we were on way to brunch next door to the hotel and just ducked (haha) into the lobby and saw the beginning of the duck ceremony. Very charming.

I don't know why I still struggle with this, at brunch I way over ordered. They had a biscuit and bacon board with different butters and it sounded so good. So 3 huge biscuits (I finished most of 1), 6 pieces of bacon (I ate 2). What I tell myself: what I ate was soooo good, it was okay to order what I wanted yada, yada. I mostly believe it, but I'm sorry the rest had to be tossed, because I didn't want to carry a doggie bag all day. In order to have some nutrition, I bought a container of Fairlife, and keep it in the room fridge, and drink 2 cups throughout the day.

We went to the National Civil Rights Museum at the Lorraine Motel. I'm left again humbled and amazed. Where do people find the courage to lay their life and body on the line in service of justice? I would highly recommend if you ever find yourself in Memphis.

We're taking a little break, or maybe a long one. We might walk over to Beale Street, or we might just stay in. Tomorrow we are going on a city tour and a riverboat cruise. It should be warm (72) and sunny.

75 pounds! Amazing accomplishment within any time frame!

206! Congratulations!
