Weight 121.8. I am planning on weighing mostly daily (when I have time/remember) now that I am in maintenance range. Still losing weight so I need to work harder at eating. Always makes me feel amazed when I say that. I did have a snack of cottage cheese last night and I felt like I ate plenty for dinner (pizza) but I guess I need more snacks, as I really don't want to go below 120. I did drop my dose of tirzepatide to 5 mg this week. From what I am reading the step-down should be similar to stepping up - 4 weeks at a dose before changing.

It turned out to be a cloudy then rainy day yesterday so no beach. But we did take Justice for a 4 mile walk on the Cape Cod Canal mid-day. Always a nice walk and there were tons of boats going through the canal. It looks like today will be rainy this morning but potentially dry in the afternoon so we may find a good place to take the dog for a walk after I get my annual state inspection on the car. I hate having to do that. My car is going to the dealer for servicing on Wednesday so I was hoping they could do it but they don't have inspection facilities on-site.

Not much else on the agenda though I should trash some more things left behind from the big clean-up and take pictures of Christmas stuff for DD to view to decide what she might want. Hopefully the Purchase and Sale contract gets signed today, just leaving their mortgage approval as the last hurdle before the deal really feels final.

Have a macropodine Monday!

Greetings all

Another great day here. Overcast start, sunny now. Same thing every day. Works for me.

I did some work at the studio. Glazed and made a few items and tidied others for firing. This is getting to be a job! I heard from the gallery today that I am almost sold out again. So much for price raise. The whole gallery is going gangbusters this summer. We are going to have to do some serious planning for year end.

Watched the rest of the Olympic opening ceremony last night and the tower light show did not disappoint. Love this stuff even though I am not much for sports. But I can't figure out how Snoop dog got to be such a big deal in the Olympics and carried the torch. Just because he cooks with Martha Stewart?

CC the next door RV party sounds like a pain. But I doubt slamming windows would do any good. They would not notice. Any clue when they are leaving? Does Kirby bark at them?

Yay on dress Liz. Glad thats all going smoothly. Now I have to go look up quahog and what they are stuffed with.

Paula keep prospecting on the art shows. There are probably a million options in Florida. Our gallery sells lots and many are photos of local stuff. People really like the nature scenes.

Burgers last night were great if I say so myself. More tonight. DH got both dogs out for walks today. He did his good deed for the day by chatting with a 94 year old man who was out walking and mostly talking. Small towns have benefits.

Still doing walking and trying to do as much as I can without holding on. Noticeable difference.

Good for DD! I wish DC 1 could afford the GLP 1s or even weight loss surgery for that matter. They are pushing 300 lbs. and only 5' 7". I hate to see them physically struggle with the extra weight!

Down 15 lbs. and 7th shot in! I'm very pleased with the results! I can see the difference in my face already! Now the belly!

Went to an art fair with DC 1 this morning. As I suspected, many of the photographers there didn't adhere to only offering Limited Edition prints! I'll have to see if the rules are rigid in FL or not. Fair was fun and it is always nice to spend time with my kids!

Overcast and warm but not hot. Perfect weather really! Tomorrow will be cloudy too so I may head to the Botanical Gardens as overcast days are the best for my photography!

Liz, glad the dress fitting went well. I like the idea of having the back ties to make it adjustable. Is she continuing to lose weight with the meds? I had to look up the stuffed dish you had, clams! Nothing like that around here! I've never really traveled out east with the exception of NJ and NY once. Would love to see the Cape!

CC, sorry for the rude neighbors. I would have slammed my window shut too! I take it Dad and Claudia are back to their normal state of health!

Making chicken enchiladas for dinner. Man, I can't get enough Mexican as of late! Besides seafood, it his been the thing I crave the most! So glad that sweet cravings have seemed to go away. I rarely have a sweet treat anymore!

Sunday breakfast, bed stripped, sheets washing, vacuumed, tidied. A good Sunday morning! It's going to be warm here today. South wind means hot and more humid.

The temporary RV park next door was active with a Margaritaville sing along at 11:15pm. I might have slammed my bedroom window forcefully to express my displeasure. Go down to the beach if you want to do that or do it earlier!

Not much else on the docket for today. Maybe a trip to the recycle bins in town and sitting outside a while under the umbrella...
