Back from today's activities. We went to the house where JFK was born in Brookline. It is run by the National Park System, and has just reopened after being closed for many years due to a mix of Covid and renovations. DH was delighted. As an Irish Catholic, he is a big JFK fan.
Our next stop was the Isabella Stuart Gardner museum. Wonderful, eclectic collection in a beautiful Italianate building. It is probably best known for the robbery in 1990, where the robbers came dressed as police, convinced the guards to let them in, and made off with 13 paintings. The museum chose to keep exhibiting the empty frames.
I think the maintenance phase of these medications is yet to be carefully studied. And according to my WLS clinic, bariatric surgery patients are not part of any of the studies, so we are making it up a bit as we go along.
I'm not decluttering in the manner most of you are. Stuff leaving our house currently is my clothes, papers, books. DH has tried to let go of a few things. One closet in a spare bedroom has boxes of slides, in those plastic carrousels. DH has been working on transferring them to digital format (he has some gizmo that copies them), but I know he will NEVER dispose of the actual slides. He also has bags and bags of negatives from pre digital photos.
CC, I hope there is a quick answer to your Dad's health struggle.
Peps the weather this summer in Minnesota, and the upper Midwest has been crazy and not normal. Big swing from last year when you were cooking in Stillwater.
Tomorrow off to Minnesota, but not until 9pm. I sure hope we don't have any big delays.
Pictures! That's a really hard one!
I literally have a closet full of scrapbooks! Many of them will go to the kids (they probably have 12 big ones each) but I probably have the same number for myself!

No restaurant work for DS anymore - he only cooks at home these days as he has been employed in technology for the last couple of years. He is working for a company with offices all over the US, but most work is remote. He was prepared to look for a new job if necessary once he decided to move north but his company is happy for him to continue in his current job fully remote except when there are special projects for which he would travel. Cape Cod really isn't a good place for a single young person as the year round residents are mostly older. Portland Maine is a fun city with a lot of places to go and a lot of people in his age group. And he has a couple of close friends who live close to the city which is why he was familiar with it and decided to move there.

Rainy day today! At least it took away some of the heat!
Bible study this morning was interesting. Had a storm brewing outside and inside at the same time! Two of the ladies got into more than a bit of a tiff with each other! Not what you expect when a bunch of Christian ladies get together!
Liz, good to take of of Justice's teeth. We started too late for our Bella girl and she only has two teeth left now! She does pretty well without teeth but does have problems with keeping her tongue in. I'll have to post a cute pic of her I took last week! Congrats on DS's second launch!
Hope your Dad gets everything taken care of today CC!
Congrats Miss 150 on maintaining! Good luck with the move!

I looked on the map, you're about 50 miles east of where I went to summer camp every year as a kid!
Isn't Katie Ledecky amazing!
I know what you mean about the drama. Sometimes I think that I will ignore something serious with my DS because everything gets so blown up.

143.2
-5.4# down for July and kept within a# of 142 for the last 2 weeks so I think my body is done and happy with where I'm at. Hoping when all the moving is over I will continue to be as active (in more enjoyable ways) and stay weight stable.
Still Uber focused with house stuff (discussion excellent yesterday around letting stuff go); the more I let loose, the less precious things seem.
Rolling stones gather no moss and more stones (stuff) making their way out the door today. Those picture albums, though--somehow- could go digital, but not the same...are probably making the move.
Inspection tomorrow and then- hopefully just the closing and moving...
Catch ya when I can.
