What a pain having to deal with that Costco nonsense. Good to know that Eli Lilly was helpful. I will probably buy vials from them once I use up my existing supply. Since I am on Medicare my insurance shouldn't be run at all.

From the 80's to the 40's is one drastic change! And I complain about a 15 degree change...

I thought of telling you all I was pregnant for an April Fool?s joke but know that I have have mentioned menopause too many times for it to be believed!

Greetings all

It is sunny now but boy was it raining earlier. Started the day with Scrabble where I played terribly and lost all my games. Boo Hoo. These people are getting too good for me. After that I stopped at the store for liver sausage since it is dog pill day and that is the only way to get them down. Bought a few other things but nothing too terrible. Then it was on to the studio for art time. One Scrabble friend came by to use our balance scale since he has some old pennies that might be valuable which have a weight difference. No jackpot found.

So DD on to Graceland. What fun. I hear it is marvelously tacky. Should be fun.

Liz glad you have a gold buddy who is fun. No fun to take it too seriously.

Well Peps I will have to see what they mean by visceral fat. Regardless of the scan numbers, you are doing great and should be proud.

Ditto Paula. So slim you mom did not recognize you! My mom once asked me if my husband and I were planning on having children. I had to remind her I was 64 years old!

And speaking of kids, little miss Vivian is doing fine. She lost a few ounces as newborns often do but it working on putting it back. They have a lactation consultant and all kinds of services at this high risk baby hospital so she is getting all that is needed. The kid has such long fingers - she will either be a piano player or a surgeon.

Not much else in this long day by my standards. More pot roast tonight. Yay for that. No April fools jokes here.

Hello from the land of the Delta Blues! Beautiful day with sun and 70s. Today we took a city tour whi*****luded a BBQ stop, and then the Rock and Soul Museum. 2 times I've learned that Ike Turner's Rocket 88 is considered the first true Rock n Roll song. I told DH his well deserved unsavory reputation makes it difficult to acknowledge his talent. In fact, I didn't know he was so talented, I thought he was just good at marketing Tina. It reminds me of a controversial club discussion about supporting artists who have done really bad things, even if it was well in the past. I guess somewhat similar to wearing old fur coats...is it okay as long as you're not supporting the current fur industry? Anyhow, I thought it was interesting to think about some artists like Ike Turner and their impact on our culture.

After the lunch and museum, we went on a riverboat cruise. The Mississippi starts in Northern Minnesota and we've been to the headwaters. You can walk across it. And now it's Old Man River after that it's flowed so far from home.

We had an early dinner, then walked back to our room. We're going to try to head back to Beale Street around 8pm because it sounds like it is going to rain hard tomorrow night and all day Thursday. Its supposed to be in the 80s tomorrow and windy before the storms roll in. Tomorrow's tour is Graceland.

Very confusing results - quite surprising I think. Does this imply that if 1 pound of visceral fat was lost, that same pound was gained in another part of the body?
