    Hard to stay on track when you are out of your routine. I'm sure you will see a difference next week. Actually I think you did good with only a .4 increase.

    Off for groceries this morning. Told hubby we will stop for lunch before driving back. I don't think one fast food lunch is going to make a big difference in my overall weight loss plan. Will probably be up a bit due to salt but I know it will come back down. Have now lost 12 pounds from my all time high in July of last year so 26 more to go.

    A clothing store in Canada is closing down and it is one that I liked to order clothes online from. Sad to see that but I guess it is harder and harder for retailers to compete. I still have one Canadian store that I like for clothes and know what sizes to order from them. Problem for me is pants as they are usually way too long....I'm 5'4".

    I have the opposite problem with pants. My inseam is 32. Regular pants are 31 and tall sizes are 33. I get tall sizes and hem them. Lately, I have been getting boot cut fleece lined pants from RBX. Website says it is a 31 inseam, but I have bought 3 pairs and they are all 32 and perfect length on me.

    Back from nice trip but now have a nasty cold. I ate a lot and walked a lot. Such is NYC. Too exhausted to write more.

    Hope you get over your cold quickly.

    Bought some cans of diet pepsi in the mini size. Trying to cut down on drinking diet pepsi as I know it is not a good drink choice but is a habit that I am struggling with. The smaller size should help (hopefully).

    We have a herd of elk that have been showing up on our field right across from the house every evening for the past week. So nice to see. Have noticed that vehicles are slowing down when they spot them. Have counted 24.

    Glad you had a nice trip but sorry you came home with a cold. Hope you get over it quickly. A lot of nasty viruses are circulating right now.

    How blessed you are Joy to see elk in the wild. They have been reintroduced to Virginia but I havent seen one yet.

    Yes lots of viruses. Wish I could get better and exercise!!!
    Elk are amazing and so majestic. I hope they can do well in the East.

    Quite a few kids getting sick now in the schools and I certainly keep that in mind when out and about. Hope you get over it soon.

    Such a tragedy in the skies today. Sad for all affected.

    We are under another snowfall event with temps plunging back down to close to minus 30 by the weekend.

    Our elk are so nice to watch. They seem to be thriving as they don’t appear to have any predators that I know of. No one is allowed to hunt in our area either. Doing well in the west (Alberta).

    Just saw in our local paper that three area schools shut down this week because of flu. Evidently, it is rampant.
    I was a slug today. Stayed up too late last night and was just worthless all day. I am going to bed early so I can try to do better tomorrow. It’s raining, so no outside exercise but we need the rain to control a couple of wildfires in a nearby county. Tomorrow I plan to tackle the mess in my laundry room and drop off more donations.
