My big yarn order came today and I happily continuing to knit my blanket for Project Linus. I am fussy about brand, weight, and color of yarn so it pleases me to have found a place where I can order exactly what I want.

Where are you ordering your yarn from? I'm quite particular myself. Typically Red Heart yarns. Currently I'm on a journey to use up a stockpile of donated yarn. Some of it is impossible to work with but I feel compelled to give it my best try. It's donated to our PL chapter and the ladies automatically pass it on to me.

Cheri, the company is called Herrschners. They have Red Heart yarn is many different weights and colors along with a lot of craft items. I ordered on August 5 and my yarn arrived on August 13 so not super speedy like Amazon but I wanted what I wanted. When I bring my blanket to the Project Linus shop, they always offer me the donated yarn, but I've learned to refuse it if it's not exactly what I want.
Happy Birthday, Carol, You look great.

Pip--I like your chairs. They should last a long time.
Michele--Like the towel topper. I have several of those my grandma made.
Beth--Glad to hear your son is home and now you can make sure he gets what he needs.
Tracey-- Hope your time off and with your grandchildren gives you the break you need and maybe when you come back next week things will be better.
Carol--Very happy birthday.
I remember growing up we had the wringer washing machine and two metal tubs to raise the clothes. Being the oldest I got to do the wash and used a wooden spoon to start the clothes to the wringer. Sometimes if I wasn't fast enough the spoon would go through too.
Had my 6 month blood work done this morning for my appointment next Tuesday. I was worried because of all the meds they have me on for the hives. My AC1 is 5.7, so happy about that. Several blood levels are still low, but better then a couple months ago. I am just tired of being worn out most the time and then the last couple days the hives are back.
I am off the weekend and so looking forward to it. Going to enjoy the time and sounds like we (DH & I) are going on a motorcycle run tomorrow with a group of riders. That should be fun.

Sounds PERFECT!!
Enjoy every minute of it. I would have to skip the ice water-instant asthma attack for me. Can't eat or drink anything cold unless I have it with a cup of hot tea.

Another 45 degree morning.... we'll take it The gravenstein apples are ripe and beginning to fall, I think I'll dehydrate a bunch but it's going to be too hot for a few days to run the dehydrator, so have them squirreled away in various rooms of the house.

Faye ~ How do you get all the pics of yourself? Do you have a friend who takes them. I can barely take a "selfie".

Yes, Herrschers! My daughter just got a Harry Potter puzzle from them.
I'm just getting to the point in life of owning a "I deserve this" attitude for myself. Meaning I don't need to take what's given or what's the most economical. Spending on myself and not others.
Thanks!

Motivation to lose weight:
I needed a hip replacement, and NHS will only put you on the list if you demonstrate that you can get down to a reasonable weight.
I started in late 2014, lost 45 lbs, had the op in September 2015, and just kept going. Have discarded 78 lbs so far. Weight, and BMI are in the normal range for my age and height.
I did a 12 week Bodytrax course at my local gym last year and the body analysis gave this 74 year old a body age of 63 at the beginning of the course. Since the middle of June I have increased my Muscle %age by 2.3%and reduced my Fat %age by over 3%.3 -
Our piece of furniture came in! Wrong color, but don’t want to deal with the return, it fits with my decor anyway kinda bummed but oh well..

PIP It all looks good and very inviting to me. That dresser has a nice contrast with the floor. Would that outdoor rug work as a yoga mat?2
