    Smoke from the wildfires has returned. My allergies are going crazy! Trying to moderate and get in some exercise every day. Some success- the scale will tell.

    Wishing everyone a great week!

    Syd, glad you had a great time. Gary, the haze is awful.
    I am surviving. Hope all is well with everyone.

    Our son has been working in Japan the past two months. He met a Japanese girl there a year ago and after several trips got engaged. So he was staying with her while working. So glad he did. Evidently she is a problem drinker who gets physically and emotionally abusive. Last night she went nuts. He was able to get his backpack and luggage in his rental car but she managed to get the door open and steal his luggage. He spent the night in his workplace parking lot and talked to his US boss when the plant opened. He was afraid she would make a false claim against him causing him to lose his passport while it was being investigated.

    Six hours later he was on a plane which just landed at SeaTac. Thankful he made it, but may have lost his belongings.

    Drinks with him tonight if he can be awake that long.

    It was a pretty rough weekend. I didn't moderate. But as Gary says, "Today is a new day!"

    Hi Ann!
    I've seen Kate post a couple of workouts the last day or 2...so it looks like all might be ok.

    Does anyone here meditate? I'm into my 2nd week and it's interesting. Maybe if I get good I'll cut down on the wine :D:drinker:

    The summer has flown by hasn't it! School has already started here.

    Have not tried any meditation, but anything that helps with relaxation- go for it!

    We got a backyard playground project done and I posted a few pics of it on my profile page if you want to check it out.

    Have a great extended weekend!

    Yay...good luck, Robin!

    Can't believe it's September. I'm always a little depressed when summer ends, but I'm hoping to start off the month strong (ignoring this past weekend where I ate and drank too much!)
    Hope you're all doing well!
