    Got a late start running errands with dh. He worked last night, home at 8AM and then slept a few hours.
    I did get a few loads of laundry done, cats all taken care of and a few other chores while he slept

    Picked up the limit of 2 on the corned beef that were on sale at two stores. Hope to go back one more time to get 2 more(Safeway is linked to our club card so only can do it once. Food Maxx is 2 per visit)1.69 per pound at Safeway and $1.77 a pound at FoodMaxx. ) Safeway ended up a bit cheaper because we get an extra 10% off their brand products beings dh works there.
    I will cook them in the pressure cooker, chill over night, slice thin then freeze in small portions. Some to take to mom's and the rest for us. Stock up when they are on sale.

    Walked the dog this morning before we shopped but don't think he will get much of a walk in two hours. It is raining so hard. May just let him out in the back yard- unless the rain stops around that time.
    Class tonight. Will dress in layers. Cold now but warm up quickly when the music starts. Will even end up with the big fan on most likely.

    The Korean spicy stew was delicious, but very filling! I staggered through the rain to French Circle, only to find food samples and wine being served as part of the French cookery demonstration! 😯 Starter was vegetables 'a la greque' - bit boring, middle was Goat's Cheese and mint tart - heavenly, and the dessert was Gateau Basque - very nice. Oouuff!!!!! I will definitely be making the tart. I had never thought of putting goat's cheese and mint together, but, honestly, it was fabulous. I took a photo of the recipe, which is in French. 😁

    I got an Uber home and watched a couple of TV programmes I had remembered to record. John had bacon and baked beans for his dinner. He hasn't had baked beans from a tin in years!

    Now in bed and too tired to put the duvet cover on. Never mind.

    Walked around the parking lot and then worked a little on my craft. Went to Ormo Beach where we met my cousin for a late lunch/early dinner. Just had a fish sandwich and veges with only water to drink.

    Barbara – Vince would like the tp holder to be reversible so that when you pull off a piece, the roll will move to the right (did I make myself muddy enough?). Alas, it isn’t reversible

    Debbie – your steps/day amaze me

    Did an extreme strength DVD today. The plan for tomorrow is to do an extreme cardio DVD then a yoga stretch DVD. Took some tofu brownies to the Y for their coffee time.

    Went to lunch with some of the ladies here. Had a fish salad and water to drink, Then played cards.

    M – hope your feet are feeling better soon

    Carla – have a great time

    drkatie – I, too, am having trouble getting used to the automatic double spacing. Congrats on the steps

    shamac – welcome!

    Scrubbed the rocket launch for tonight. Will reschedule, just not sure when. They are having a group at the fire pit tonight that we’ll probably go to

    Just got a text from the gal who ran the ceramics place that she resigned effective today. But she did say that a few of the people were getting together to have “painting parties”. She said she has enough paint. Wonder what will happen?

    😀 You are very welcome here. i hope you will keep coming back. I found this thread in 2009 and have been coming back ever since. This daily practice has helped me acquire good habits and lose weight. I wish the same for you.

    😀 I have been reading the AARP magazine and found a good explanation of Farmer's Carry Lanette and a section about the best cruises where someone said that when they couldn't find space on a cruise to Antarctica, the travel agent suggested a cruise to Svalbard Penny and it turned out to be the best cruise they'd ever gone on.

    😀 I completed several chores that are emotionally charged then sat on the couch and napped with Annie.

    Marketplace - local police stations here have marketplace meet up stalls in their parking lots. There is always a police officer monitoring the spot with cameras.

    Penny - it’s nice to see you!

    Tina - You’ll find lots of exercises on YouTube to help with PF. I find they do help.

    Machka - that sounds like a terrible day for your poor feet.
    Being in pain is exhausting.

    Rebecca - how long have you had your ears pierced?My DH had his pierced when he was a teen and he can still get an earring in it. He hasn’t worn an earring for probably 35 years, except every few years for a Halloween costume.

    I am finally having a relaxing evening.Monday my BFF and I had a FaceTime chat, it had been too long so we chatted for 2 hours and 9 minutes. I needed a break so watched a bit of The Voice and went to bed.
    Last night I called my DMIL to see how she made out at the specialist yesterday.
    It’s some wait and see although he agreed something isn’t right. She needs some tests completed before he determines the next steps.
    In our chat she again told me how my Mom is misbehaving at the nursing home, she claims my Mom is giving them a hard time, won’t eat in the dining room because of some man she doesn’t like, won’t walk, and won’t eat, but yet has gained too much weight.
    I love my MIL dearly but she does tend to have a jaded view sometimes.
    My Mom was always kind to everyone, it didn’t matter where you came from, what your status in society was, nothing. She picked up hitchhikers well into the 1990’s, she put me on the Zipper (carnival ride) with the town drunk at 12 years old and didn’t have a thought as to why that wouldn’t be a good idea with her almost teenage daughter because she saw the good in everyone. She shouldn’t have with him for sure. Anyway, it bothered me so much I called my brother to see if he had heard anything. He actually hadn’t, and he had just had her yearly care conference a few weeks ago. One thing let to another during our conversation like it usually does and we ended up talking for 2 hours 7 minutes. 😂
    I didn’t sleep well all night last night and I’m trying to stay awake long enough this evening to catch up with y’all and then I’m watching Masked Singer and heading to bed.

    I can’t believe tomorrow is Thursday already.

    I had them done as a teen and if they're not pure gold I get a little infection, especially if they're just cheap ones. I might check in towards the end of the month when I travel, and want to look my best.👍🏼

    Todays meal was a keeper. I toasted a bagel, open faced, with fluffy garlic and herb cream cheese, slices of crisp apple, and my roast chicken with mayo and a splash of ACV, then topped each with pepper jack cheese melted. It was delightful. Had to cut each in half so I could navigate them. So 4 pieces of heaven, plus apples I couldn't jam in,on the side. I opened my window up at noon and closed it at 3 pm. So today was a 21 hr fast.

    Tomorrow is shopping so I want to get some platters of sushi from the sushi guy. That and some Mandarin oranges. I will mix them into my grapefruit segments jar.😁👍🏼 I am going to treat husband to some 2 ingredient mousse'. Buying heavy cream, and some Lilly's chocolate. Then some sugar free canned whipping cream. Ooh I could make some sugar free Jello to have with the canned stuff. Core childhood memory of taking a knife and squaring the pans of different jellos and mixing them! Little squares of sunny colors! I will probably just buy the containers of sugar free stuff, though. Easier as its just me, husband isn't really a Jello guy.

    Tracey- that is great that the local police have the Marketplace meet up place for people to use.

    didn't walk the dog this evening(well, just around the little block- I didn't want to walk him in the rain. Rain isn't bad but the cold wind BITES)

    Had a good class.
    Ending my day with 14,000 steps.

    Not sure if I will get much walking in- depends on the weather.

    Made a huge taco salad for dinner. Used salad my friend gave me. He bought a big box and can't use it all before it goes bad. He is going to be gone all weekend for a quilting weekend. Topped it with the filling from two leftover tacos from lunch yesterday. Added a little grated cheese, a tomato and a little sour cream.
    Had a piece of Filipino cake that my zumba teacher gave me for my birthday. It was so good. Another friend who rides with the teacher gave me Ube empanadas.
