    So I have taken over quite a few of my hubby' s chores as he is having health issues. Sunday is clean up the dog area. Ok I was so happy the neighbors dog is back on their electric fence. All I had to clean up after was my one dog. Maybe they suddenly noticed their yard had no dog poo? Maybe they heard me talking to myself the week before.LOL I don't know but I appreciated it.

    So the doctor would still like to do surgery on my ankles. The best I can explain it is my ankles have no mobility. My thought is not everyone is the same. It's something I have never had it is not like I lost mobility but it could wind up a failure and I would lose stability too and end up in braces. I don't see any pluses to do it. My ankles work on a hinge only mechanism. My thought is it should have been done when I was younger not now when I am caring for my parents and my husband and I work full time. If it doesn't bother me why mess with it.

    @2020pinktogo - Wow, surgery does sound like a big risk. Glad you are comfortable with your decision. :-)

    After reading your post, I will enjoy and appreciate the predicted "cooler temperatures today" of 74 degrees (23 for those of you who use celsius).

    A cool but sunny day here in Saskatoon. It was 12 degrees Celsius which makes walking outside very enjoyable. I must say I am not missing the heat that we experienced in Palm Springs.

    Does anyone log in their water? I carry a water bottle around at school but I'm not sure how much I actually drink each day.

    I don't log it. I drink a lot of water all day long (100-120 ounces plus) and having to log it all would be annoying and not helpful to me personally. I know a lot of people who do find it helpful though.
