Kathy - yes...we are around the same weight.....happy to be buddies
We love Highlander too! They tone down the sex as it progresses....I agree a bit much!
So I’m in Barcelona for vacation. This will be our 3rd full day here....4 more full days to go. Be
autiful city...clean....friendly...a lot to do...amazing food. Trying to enjoy but not overdo it. My hubby and I are trying to still fast until lunch. Eating more carbs than usual , and loving every bite. We are walking fools.....8-10 miles a day....my legs are screaming...but all good. A few pics 1 -
189.8 this morning. I’ve totally lost focus. No excuses. Know what I need to do. Joining the Wellness Center at one of our local hospitals. They have everything, a pool, cardio classes and machines for strength training. I need a structured environment. And must get my cravings under control.
I do have some good news. My Thursday night tennis team has made the city finals. We are so excited.
Our Sunday team first playoff match is Sunday. I’m in the lineup.

Okay, back later...maybe.

Karen, have fun! Thanks for the pictures....BEAUTIFUL!
Kathy, hope the Wellness Center is what works for you.
Shelley, I got some Wisteria today. One Black Dragon and two Amethyst falls. Have to transplant them this weekend and hope they like our back yard. Now to think of where to plant them. We are Zone 9 so they should do really well here. We'll see.

Karen beautiful pictures. And I wish they would have cut more of the sex out of Highlander. I read the book years ago. Had forgotten all about it. But enjoyed the series. The architect and stone carvings are the buildings are simply amazing. It would cost way to much to do that today. Funny you mention you are fasting until lunch. I got busy and missed breakfast so decided to just skip it!
Kathy congratulations to you and your team. I bet it is due a lot to your being in better shape and able to get around so much quicker! And the Wellness Center sounds marvelous. I would love it.
Chris the mall is great. Watch the Wisteria. They can get carried away. But so beautiful.
We had a storm yesterday. Not sure how much rain but it poured. And the lightening and loud booms were awesome. But sadly if did scare my four legged kids.
151.8

Okay, I hit 150. Need to track again. That whiskey goes down easy - no carbs but calories galore.
So sorry to be missing here - got all your harrassments I mean, well-wishes. Yes, I am fine. Living IRL right now. Realizing these are probably the best years of my life.
Been going to lots of bars to dance, making lots of friends, lots of cute guys out there, many of them interested in me (some of whom aren't even wearing beer-goggles) but no chemistry yet. Still a seven-year virgin with the looks and health of an attractive forty-fifty year old.
From the perspective of someone who just broke up with a perfectly nice good-looking guy, I not looking for just a nice, good-looking guy. I'm super picky and shy and nervous and insecure too. I crave excitement and spark and depth. Maybe unrealistic, but it's hard to be real and control feelings at the same time. (I call my feelings "stupid thang" - she has terrible taste, but I've got to live with it.) It's up to fate and god and who knows what at the point. In the meantime I'm just appreciating so much wonder in the world.
There was a couple dancing in a Belmont bar who'd been together five years. I want someone who looks at me the way he still looks at her, wowzer. Fell in love with them both. Dancing is so much fun. Music is magical. There are some enchanting beautiful people in the world. And it's fun to dream.
In the meantime, the two people who tortured me at work have both exited. I am the only full-time person in our department now - with four open position. We have help from good temps and consultants. We're making it work and being appreciated. It is fun and rewarding.
I need to get on the ball and finalize my divorce, end the landslide lawsuit, finish organizing Mom's finances, and go backpacking before it rains. Busy. Also dancing a lot, working a lot and coming home exhausted.
Too much about me. I need to go back and read all your stories now.
Love y'all,
Paula

Paula so nice of you to touch bases. I have a Fit Bit. At work now. Touch back with you soon. And yes finish that law suit! That is crazy.

I did not log in yesterday and I lost over 2500 days...
...sigh...DAMN!
I'm going to my room to cry now.

Hi Paula! Nice to see you! And what Shelley said.
Okay, a friend on another challenge told me how to fix my days!! Yes! I'm happy now!
Chris1 -
Chris lately I have only been able to fix one day at any time. I often good off and not lot in until after midnight. Lost a lot of days that way. But never 2500 days. Kathy lost here once and I was able to help her. So glad that you are better now.
Took your advice and kept the fitbit. I like logging my meals on it more. Been keeping in my goal for almost two weeks. And weight is down 3 pounds. My uniform will fit me better now.
When I drive into my driveway it started dumping buckets of rain down. So I decided to just sit in my Escape until it subsided some. I sat there for more than 15 minutes. But I had my book with me.
Paula I am so excited you are back. Sounds like you have been having a blast.
