Pups look adorable! Great job packing, Bisky!
Carla, my niece's husband is from Spain, Valdepenas. Her wedding was there in 2009. I was there. No Bridezilla for this one...they took me around Spain one week before the wedding. Unreal. LOVED Barcelona!
Great job on exercise and food, M! Hate that you are still going in on the weekends. Yikes!
Today, mani/pedi...then swimming and Pita Jungle with my niece and her fam at my sister's.

Make it special everyone! And deeeeeeeelicious.
M, I am trying to stay away from the toxic people at work...there are three of them. It made my day yesterday so much better...I was actually happy. I didn't realize how much energy they had been draining from me. I am not being mean, just staying away/ignoring them. YAY ME!
2009 lowest weight...I think 135. Barcelona!

Look at you skinny minnie, Nanc! The pic is a little fuzzy, but you look happy and sassy.
Stayed at the office from 9 am to 6 pm and got quite a lot done, but still a long way to go. The gal who came in to help was there about 5 hours but she wasn't feeling well so she went home.
Stopped and got some napa cabbage, cucumber and cilantro. thinking I can make a nice salad with that and some edamame. Will make that tomorrow. Tonight is just steamed kale and mushrooms with chopped apple. Too tired to cook.
A couple of high school friends who I haven't seen in 30 years are coming to the party, and that is very motivating to stay on track and lose a few pounds before then. LOL

Oh Carla I am so happy for you. We loved Spain! If there is an excursion to the ALAHAMBRE IN Grenada don’t miss it…an amazing place. We stayed in Malaga and visited the castle and museum. Best sangria I have ever had.

Magic - good for you not renting head space to toxic office people. Not worth it. You look great in that pic.
Mihani - when is your party? That salad sounds refreshing.
Well, I have been on a matcha green tea latte kick made with creamy oat milk, plus watermelon and my bad snack…pumpkin flavored almonds. They have sugar but better than chocolate, cookies or pumpkin flavored Starbucks drinks. Plus only takes a few to satisfy my sugar cravings.
Brooks and I played pickleball early am. So fun. Walked dogs and now going through clothes (again). Two more large bags to women’s shelter. Now going through papers, jewelry and stuff. Took a large number of fish, snails and plants to 2 local aquarium stores. Going to a 3rd tomorrow. I am thinking about having an aquarium just to grow water plants to sell as I seem to have green thumb. Lately I have been making $200 each weekend but I feel sad when I sell my baby fish. Plants not so much.

Mornin' all, slept in until 6:30 and got my mile in on the treadmill. I have hit over 5,000 all but one day out of the last 7.
Bisky, everyone seems to be in on the pickleball craze lately. I have a few friends who play regularly and I have been thinking about going along. Just making the time is the problem. Party is two weeks. Won't be nearly the prep of the last one when I had so much to do around the house.
I'm really enjoying having my oats for lunch instead of breakfast. Seems to stay with me longer than any other lunches I've tried, and gives me energy to finish up the day at the office without caving to the snack monster. I do keep some apples or other fruit and Dr. McDougall soups at the office just in case I really need something.
Plan for today is a total repeat of yesterday. The steamed kale and mushrooms last night was really good. I used the microwave steamer 4 minutes then sprinkled with some nooch and a little bragg's and sriracha. Skipped adding chopped apple but had a peach for dessert. Best peach I've had this year.
