    Doing well managing my calories and I've dropped those 2 lbs I gained. Let's see if I can continue with that and not blow up my progress over the weekend.

    Weekends are my enemy when it comes to drinking! Far too many free hours... ;):)
    That being said, I can't wait till I can sit on my deck with a drink! C'mon warm weather!!

    Hi all, Work has been a stressful challenge but I am hanging in there. We have been getting big wet heavy snow on and off today. Not sticking but yucky. I would like some warmer weather please. My weight, drinking and working out are about the same, so not good. It will all change someday. Take care my dearest lushes.

    Not much activity on the thread. I guess that means everyone is doing well.
    The weekend saw the son and grandson down. Fun and exhausting. Moderated a bit. We are suppose to leave on a three week vacation to the desert SW Friday but wife's dad is back in the hospital with a possible gall bladder issue. He has been in and out of the hospital for several months with a variety of issues, the last was earlier this month with a kidney stone.

    Have a great week lushes- no zeros for me in the works.

    Sydney- we just heard- surgery for gall bladder removal on Friday. They have go get his liver enzymes normal first.
    It will impact our trip.

    Oh well.

    As for where we are headed--- Great Basin National Park, Capitol Reef NP, Staircase Escalante Nat Mon, Chaco Canyon, Mars Desert Research Center, Trilobite hunting in Utah, Arches NP, Canyonlands NP, etc etc.

    If we get to SD, maybe we can go hang out at Blacks Beach with you? B)

    Surgery on the FIL tomorrow. Its a gall bladder removal which is not terribly invasive, just three little cuts, but being 80 years old and going under anesthesia always has risks.

    As for the beach we can go at night! :)

    Gary and Syd, you two are hilarious. I am still plugging along. I am in the process of getting invisaline braces. maybe if my smile is better I will be more motivated to get the rest of me better. One can hope.

    I will say the one time I went to Blacks beach it made me feel better about my body. It was many years ago but the average age was probably about 60 and I remember thinking, boy these people are old. :o
    Keep us posted on the FIL, Gary.
    Robin I'm so jealous!! Your smile is going to be awesome :)
    Started my spring planting. Keeping busy. The sun makes me happy.

    You guys read about this??
    https://www.cnbc.com/2018/03/29/under-armour-stock-falls-after-company-admits-data-breach.html

    I guess we should change our passwords or something. I dunno, like I told my husband, the only thing they'll see from looking at my account is that I drink too much wine and haven't lost much weight for being here for so long.

    Have a great weekend and Happy Easter to those who celebrate!

    Sydney- I saw that data breach as well. I don't have any personal info on the site so I can't see how it could harm me. Still I may change my password anyway.

    Have a great weekend!

    I am with you on the breach thing. Not much to find out about me on here. I am afraid if I change my password I will never remember it. It sucks getting old.

    FIL gall bladder removal went well. He has some unrelated infections they are getting hold of so he will be in the hospital over the weekend. We leave on our trip tomorrow. I will try and post some pics to piss everyone off!

    Hope you're enjoying your trip, Gary!

    I must've been jealous because I'm taking off on a last minute trip to Palm Desert. Going to enjoy some warm weather and relax at the spa before the Coachella crowds show up. Need to stop by the store to stock up on wine :drinker:
