The foot licker continues to sneak in his licks! I'm sure it doesn't feel good. Like giant popped blisters on his feeties.

Today I am off to get my hair colored and cut. I've had a lot more hair loss in the last few months. I'm sure I could always do better on my protein. I'm taking my iron and my doctor upped my anti-thyroid meds (having your thyroid off in either direction can cause hair loss). But it's probably most likely the protein. I haven't been on the scale in eons. I'm ostriching having lost my mojo in the last month. I'm on the highest dose, but the carb food noise is back with vengeance.

Later I need to plant a little. Who would have thought 21 plants would be a lot to plant (haha, what was I thinking)! I'm planting 3 a day. The ground is rock hard, so that's more work than it sounds... My inner thighs and rear are so sore from it. Funny what muscles engage with different tasks that you wouldn't expect.

Last night I did a deep tidy of the kitchen. I am so bad about not putting things away. The piles of stuff -unread magazines, papers, Amazon purchases, confiscated dog toys and other dog paraphernalia, reusable grocery bags, clean dishes, and collections of food packages on the counters (instead of putting things back in the pantry after using or shopping), were creating a lot of visual clutter. I'm not a dirty person - everything is clean including dishes, counters, stove etc - but Lordy am I messy! I think it starts with not everything having a home to put it away and then it expands to nothing getting put away, even things with a home because clutter attracts clutter. Sigh.

Anyway, off to get showered. Take care!

WOW! More excitement than is needed for a vacation Monday morning!

I didn't intend to be posting yet, but we've had a little adventure. At 7am their was an announcement that a fire had been reported in the building, and we must evacuate. As we came down the stairs from the 8th floor we could smell smoke, so not a false alarm. The restaurant's kitchen was on fire! So many fire trucks! The sweet hotel manager was standing with a clipboard, calling out people's names, Miss Amy, are you here? No,... Mr . Ryan? Then suddenly Miss Amy would yell I'm here! And so on. It was like an SNL skit. We're back in the room, deciding where to have breakfast, as it won't be at the hotel today.

Oh my goodness - poor Kirby!

Yes, you do live in a rough climate for anything needing water or shade. Beautiful but harsh.

That makes sense: You do need a lot of it!
