119 - feels good to have my weight settle back down, not that it was that high. Old tapes as Peps pointed out.

I stunk at golf yesterday though I had fun. I took the max at 8 of the 9 holes. BUT I got to practice getting out of the sand and actually did pretty well at that. And I was also hitting better on the fairway. So good practice at least and the 2 ladies I played with were great. Speaking of which I need to send them a thank you note.

SIL arrived without issue. She was very achy after the flight so we had some downtime for her with a heating pad (a crack in her ribs is very uncomfortable for her right now). I hope she slept well! We are driving to our old Florida town this afternoon. It is a 3 hour BORING drive past turf farms, cows and a prison. We are meeting up with a friend for dinner tonight. DH and Justice are having a guy's weekend LOL.

But first a long Justice walk since he hasn't had one since Saturday (and didn't want one in the cold up in Albany). Have a flourishing Friday!

Great to not feel pressure to find a new source for a while isn't it? Interesting that they charge more - did they use a different pharmacy? I actually paid less with my bulk order from HenryMeds.

I guess it is better to laugh about a lost finger than to cry about it!

Is the treadmill walking helping you with balance? I feel like I need to work on that as standing on one foot can be quite difficult these days.

Having that good weather is nice for Claudia and your Dad. It has been much windier and colder here in Florida so far this winter. I hope it flips around next month.

Hard to stop some of those old tapes. That 212 before the . does look pretty slim though!

Loving your pictures! We had a 5 hour time difference from home when we were in Hawaii. It was difficult to catch the kids sometimes.

Yay for getting 6 months of meds! I just ordered double my current dose (10 mg).

Funny finger story! Speaking of amputation, Mom had her 3rd right toe partially amputated today due to an infection that went to the bone. Unfortunately that infection has also spread to her right artificial hip so now she also needs surgery on her hip. At 88, any surgery is risky and she has quite a few comorbidities that make surgery even more risky.

That finger story is too much in all the ways. What a spirited person! I'm surprised one can leave the procedure with the amputated finger in possession.
