    Good afternoon,

    Missy oh dear that snow is the stuff of nightmares. Are you working from home? Can the dogs get out?

    Back from church was nice to see people it was only half full and our pastor is dealing with family health issues which is out of area. New pastor is fine but she likes to talk...................

    Finished shepherd pie and enchiladas with fat free refried beans are on tap to make tonight. Like I need help passing gas loudly - any colon work even appendix causes imbalance in colon and extra noise. I decided I make more noise than the stupid antics in guy movies.

    Football? Used to watch it, would rather watch soccer.

    Wishing all a good day. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Wow - it's the last day of January and hopefully February will bring some temperatures a little higher for the rest of winter.

    Wishing everyone a decent Monday 🌸

    Good evening, Cabana Crew!

    Tomorrow is the long-awaited consult with a rheumatologist. I don't mind if he doesn't have an answer right now as long as he is not dismissive of my symptoms.

    Appointment is at 3:00 pm. I will leave around 8 to get there around 11and visit a very nice mall in the area.

    We have some nasty ice coming in Wednesday and Thursday.

    Will keep you posted on the doctor and the weather.

    Tracy - sending you good vibes for a successful visit with your specialist tomorrow.
    Also I hope that you find something nice for yourself at that mall!
    Safe travels to and from 🚗

    Good evening,

    Amazing, I put "Honey BBQ sauce" and found out in a big glob of it how much hot sauce is in it, the emoji with clouds/steam coming out of the head is just about right.

    Made enchiladas (beef) and put non fat refried beans in to go containers for work. Had one today, soup is tomorrow. Nice to eat out of less boxes.

    Tracy safe travels and glad you can make productive use of a long day.

    Lady at work is pissed because she has to wear the heavy masks in the building, people are dropping like flies from Covid (not wearing your mask at your desk didnt work too well....). I have been wearing mine since I got put back there and n95's for weeks. Just roll my eyes. People's priorities are odd sometimes.

    Fell asleep last night after dinner which would be fine but I had to get up this morning to work so I messed my sleep schedule all up - trying to stay awake as long as possible today.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good morning! *teeth chattering*

    It is so cold in my apartment. My little space heater died. I contemplated changing my flight home, but eventually decided to stay until Tuesday morning, as planned. I figured that I should use this time to get some sorting, tossing, and packing up accomplished. It's got to be done sooner or later.
    Plus, being cold has got to burn a few extra calories!!

    Missy I can appreciate those photos. Oy! I hope that you get through this without injury (shoveling or whatever you need to do).

    Jordanna, does your gym have a hot tub or steam room or anything that would help your back?
    I do hope that it feels better going into tomorrow. Big hugs!

    Sara - I wish I were out in California with you today. I would walk with you~~

    Hey Tracy and Sherry - how are the Tennessee girls?
    Tracy - do you have to travel this week?

    Time for a hot shower and some warm clothes.....

    It is definitely cold out! Got my exercise in but didn’t wear my Fitbit whoops. Thank goodness I have a working snowblower otherwise I’d be shoveling out until yesterday lol 😂 no injuries just some right muscles. Dug my bichon an area to do her business but she decides that she can follow huskies paths. She’s crazy. Hope you have safe traveling today!

    Dogs can get out I had since dug an area for the bichon. But huskies just run around in the deep snow. They are very happy puppies to be in their weather. Lol. Saturday work was closed yay 😀 and I was able to get out to get to work on Sunday and yesterday. They did a good job plowing the main roads which was nice. Totally different from previous blizzards.

    Sounds like nice dinners. I’ve been wanting to make shepherds pie. Guess that is my que to do so lol.

    Yeah sometimes that honey bbq should have a mild to hot spice rating on it. And it is nice to eat out less of boxes 😊. People are dropping like flies here too. Seem inevitable that we all will have or have had it at some point.

    Good evening,

    Another fun day with the fire breathing dragon. Glad I get a respite as she is in high gear.

    Groceries delivered tomorrow with eggs so I dont have to make a special trip. Part of me is lazy and part of me doesnt want to be in busy /closed places.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good afternoon,

    I know what day it is but not the date (rent check is dated tomorrow - good news I also get paid tomorrow it was meant to be).

    Being 02/02/2022 there might be a lot of marriages going on.... never know.

    Will make ground beef,fresh spinach, onion and scrambled eggs - usually made for breakfast but works for me.

    I need to debox the house as a way of dejunking. Love getting things in the mail not too fond of the tossing out boxes.

    Wishing all a good day. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Sara - I missed posting yesterday 🤦🏼‍♀️ I had a morning appointment, and that threw me off.
    Yes, the date yesterday seemed an auspicious one. My sister pointed out that Feb. 22nd will also be a pretty spiffy day as well.
    I did decide yesterday to re-commit to healthier eating. That stint up in NYC was no good food-wise.

    Waving to all who stop by later on 👋🏻

    Good evening,

    Spinach cravings are being fostered, and I am not listening to the pizza voice.

    I mascara -ed my eyebrows (they make is specifically for eye brows) and used concealer for my under eyes (not too lovely in the morning). Makes me feel a little better going to work.

    Things are not close by and paying to have food delivered is at the moment not in my budget, so I am trying to keep better things in the house.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    *** February 4th ***

    I've been having trouble with waking up in the middle of the night and then not being able to fall back asleep. My mind is ready to get up and bounce around and do things, but the body definitely needs more sleep. Ugh.

    I'm going to hunt around for a recipe that makes many servings in a baking dish, so I can prep and cook once and get many meals out it. I'm thinking chicken, pasta sauce, some veggies, and some cheese.....

    Have a good day Sara. Your eyebrows look great! (I love that "mascara" for the eyebrows.)

    Waves to Tracy and Sherry and Jordanna and Missy (and the floofs) and anyone else who pops by today 🧡

    Good evening,

    Had booster, did not have to wait long and got junk food before I left.

    Soup for dinner may be the way to go this weekend if the rumors of this booster shot are true.

    Its Friday night and its time to burn some calories by dancing. I do mine in the kitchen but it doesnt make any difference.

    Lana do you like to read? Read book while you are up in the middle of the night.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good morning everybody ☀️

    Sara - how are you feeling today?

    Missy - how fabulous that you have a day off today! Whew!

    I hope that the rest of The Cabana Crew is doing OK 🌴

    I have a phone visit today with a long-time work colleague that I had gotten out of touch with once I had to retire. They texted me; I wonder what's driving that. I will let you know....

    My meals are planned for the day mostly because I need damage control for my weigh in (home) tomorrow.

    I am so glad that I weigh daily, because if I didn't, I would shoot myself this morning, my "official" weigh in day.
