There are several reasons that I like having everyone sign their posts with a location:
*weather and geography--when I know what part of the world you're in, it makes more sense when you write about your weather, flowers, amount of daylight, season, or how far you are from the vacation you're planning
*when there are two of us with the same first name, it's an easy way to differentiate
*a specific location isn't needed, just something general (UK, SE Asia, NW WA, mid-Atlantic)
Sunflower, great picture--I love sunflowers but because of all the trees around my house, there is too much shade and I can't grow them. A nearby neighbor in a sunnier spot grew some last summer and I made sure the dogs and I walked past them every day.
I just read an article that said that getting shorter is usual as you age and women can lose two inches of height by age 70.

Lovely afternoon and weekend ahead ...
Afternoon -- it's 12:20 pm and most of my work colleagues are departing for the Christmas Party. I've gone a few times but have been generally disappointed by the meals on offer, so the last couple years I've opted not to go. Instead of a mediocre meal and lots of noise, I will have my usual lunch and a very quiet afternoon.
Weekend -- my plan is to stay home and do homework ... and believe it or not, I'm looking forward to that!
4 of the last 5 weekends I've been rushing off to events, and 2 of those weekends had all-day events where I had to be up at 5:30 am and driving all over the countryside for the next 12 hours or so.
I'm looking forward to staying put and working at my own pace.
However, I do plan to get out on Sunday for a bicycle ride and maybe a short run. Sunday is supposed to be the first nice day we've had in a long time, so if possible, I'd like to get outside for a bit in the afternoon and just enjoy it.

Our Athena can sit up on her own like a big girl!
Our tree this year. Simple white snowflakes, plastic and crocheted, vintage ornaments from my mother inlaw, and kids glitter ornament balls. I had to string more lights because half the tree decided to stop working. Gaawh! My phone seat has been decorated as well!

Athena!!! Sitting up!!! Woohoo 🙌 watch her get up run soon enough!
Cleaning today kitchen 1section took 3hours. I am sooo slow! Rest tomorrow ran out of time ⌛️. I used to clean 12 kitchens this size plus 24 mini hotel mini bar areas in 1 day took approximately 8hours. Now 1 kitchen kicks my butt takes the same amount of time! Ugghh got to get faster somehow again.
Dinner Cheese sandwich 🥪 airfryer y waffle fries 8=160cal for this brand. Crystal light peach tea ☕️

No walking or weigh in just cleaning 🧹 a lot including dishes to laundry cooking 3meals today .2 -
Did a Mix It Up DVD. The plan for tomorrow is to do a DVD for the rebounder.
Went to WalMart after exercising to get more cough medicine. Got a few other things we needed then went to the Green Room then had an eye MD appt. I must say I wasn’t impressed with this MD. Ever since ours retired, I’ve been trying to find one that I like. So far no luck. He didn’t dilate my eyes. I feel like I got the barest of minimum visit. Our other MD did dilate your eyes as part of the routine eye exam. Newcomer bowling tonight
SuziQ – oh, yes, I know about the teenage years…only too well. If he’s anything like her, she’d better watch out! Personally, I think they’re going to have a real hard time (especially Pete) if he isn’t into “manly” things like baseball etc.
We have the Newcomer Christmas party tomorrow. The entertainment is a steel drum band. What this has to do with Christmas is beyond me. Maybe I’m wrong. We shall see. I know they have the election of officers, but I’m truly wondering if we even need to go to that meeting. It’s not like there’s anyone running against someone for a position. It’ll be like every year, the entire slate will be voted in unanimously.
Barbie – yea yea yea for your bone density
SuziQ – I’m so sorry for you
Hi there Suzi from Utah

I think it was last month we talked about passwords and being safe online.

Can you pick the one which might be legit and the one which is definitely NOT?

Rebecca I cannot believe adorable Athena is sitting up on her own! Charming baby. xoxo And I think your phone chair's vintage Christmas look is quite lovely.
I spent hours in the Social Security office and then on the phone with Medicare. I signed up for Part B. Pretty much wasted time otherwise; the people I talked to actually know quite a bit less than I do which is frightening. In-person insurance broker is next. I'm expecting a much more satisfying conversation. Geeez!

The tapas place we went to last night was exceptional and completely full on a Thursday night. I had a wonderful evening with my son and his girlfriend, but drank a little too much alcohol. Had to get a taxi back to the hotel instead of the tram.
Great night out.
Her house is lovely if a bit crowded with two teenagers and three greyhounds. She has an enviable crafting shed in the back garden which some of you would adore. Very smart, but filled with materials!!!!
I've had breakfast (I made them cook poached eggs) and I'm just relaxing before walking to the station if it's not raining.
I will be tired tonight!!!! Long journey home.

Look who has just started the cello!!!! It's actually a video, but I screenshot it. It sounds amazing. Her mother was a cello scholar at a famous school, so I guess she should be good. Edie is 6 years old.

heather Edie playing cello, be still my heart
First of 6 concerts down last night, I invited my colleagues to stay after work for a pot luck before the concert—my way of reaching out and staying positive—no regrets! The concert was filled with a lot of smiles and hugs amidst the squeaky scratchy sounds—lots of young drama.
Just going to crank out the work, I often think of my mom who when faced with a large, unwieldy task, would remind me to stop and look, stop and recognize what is simply wonderful or amazing or just perfect and stop looking ahead to tick off a box— “Oh, Karen, just look at that! She would exclaim to me—I’m keeping that mindset close to mind in the days ahead.

Machka - the second one is a scam/not safe. I just looked at the "from" emails.
Athena always looks like such a happy little girl, just gorgeous, and Edie with the cello is every mother's dream--love the shot of all the kids with the lanterns...
Up early due to a thunderstorm rolling through, quite noisy, but gone now.
Later,

Machka,
The graphics remind me of hurricane season here in SFla. If I were ever to move to your area of the world I think it would take me years to get used to the seasons. I probably would call summer winter.
Hope the me time is just what you need.0 -

Print of pics is way too small. I would probably say #1 is more legit just by overall sight. But, before I click on anything from an "unknown" I research the company/sender in another tab.
Typically I can tell just from the email address, if something is a no go. We get tons of malevolent purchasing emails at work (B2B tech reseller) so we are all well-versed in researching.3
