Happy Fourth of July Y'all~~
Missy - thanks for the festive post!
I don't have anywhere to go today, so I will be cooking healthy stuff for myself on the grill.
Sara - what a drag about the heat. My sister in Redwood City has been doing her errands in the morning and then sitting in front of a fan. She keeps her hair wet, and that helps her. I asked her again about getting air conditioning, but she thinks that it would cost her $20K for her little house. She just hates not being able to do her outdoor walking and her gardening, etc.
Maureen, always a good idea - the shopping mall walking!

I’m back again
Started in 2014
My goal is to loose 10 pounds by the end of July, and see how this goes.
I’m 212 now
My plan is to drink more water and cut the smoothies out.

Happy Saturday!
Hope everyone had a great Fourth’s of July! I had a decent week. I joined a new gym last month and had a complimentary personal training session this past Wednesday. I definitely used different muscles that I haven’t used in a while.
2 weeks left of this class, then I get a break before the next one starts. After the next class I’ll be halfway done with the program.
Dogs are doing good. I took vacation this week to help family out after my stepdad had surgery. He’s all good just a lot of pain from everything they had to do.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! Looks like it is going to be a rainy/gloomy one here.

Missy - good for you on joining your gym!
Your studies are really coming along, aren't they? Yay you!
Sending wishes for your stepdad's speedy recovery~
There's a storm coming through here. I hope it rains - the smaller trees are drooping 😨

Hey, all. I’m exhausted. Hiked a hilly trail one day—only 2 miles but it was 97 and very humid! Only 1 of the many stream beds had water and I realized I probably couldn’t carry my dog if she overheated, so I stopped and turned around.
Next day it was 98 and I did a very flat path with no dog, totaled 3. Moved very slowly and it wasn’t too bad.
Yesterday was the first day I didn’t hit 5 miles in a while—and today I’m tired, haha.
Yesterday had to drive about 3 hours through a very heavy storm—Lana, near you!
Today I begin surgery-related appts—pt, pre-op, blah, blah. My sis and I are meeting to hike the great Smokies July 10-13. Rainy forecast each day. As long as I don’t fall, it should be ok. We plan to stick to trails rated “easy” anyway, and drive up for views.
Hoping all are well. Keep strong!3 -
Happy Tuesday,
Dropped off the planet. Too hot to remember everything. So here I am, catching up.
I asked neighbor who fixes cars to put coolant in my car a/c - I was not surprised when the thing was in the "low" category. Taking cannister back tomorrow after half day at work and getting a refund ( only in CA !!??). My two medical apts are tomorrow at 3 and Friday at 5-- both days HOT I told neighbor I would make cookies - his wife shut down that idea.... He is a human vacuum/string bean.
There is a chance that Friday is the last day of 100 plus and I hope so as I am getting tired of this even though I live here - we are heading for a record to break of most days over 100 in a row. So lucky we are!!!!
Will take a long weekend - just need to be a blob and set up food for meals.
So here I am, you know it all.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

Good morning all~~
Maureen - wishing you a safe time in the great Smokies~
Sara - wishing you a very safe time in the Sacramento heat! Definitely no baking for a while 🍪
I am struggling mentally, so I'm not doing well with the food/exercise. Things will turn around soon; they always do.
Waves to Missy and all who stop by later on 👋🏻 🌴

Good evening,
More disgusting heat until Sunday. Just is.
Freon put in car not quite working. I will pay for parts and neighbor will do labor. I offered baking something and the family is on a diet to keep grandson from gaining anymore weight.
Cottage cheese and granola, strange combo but not bad for dinner. Got my fruit and veg in and drinking enough water.
Lana - one step at a time. You will get out of the tunnel.

Happy Thursday,
Almost Friday. 112 today. Feels like being inside a toaster oven. Not good.
Half day tomorrow at work then dr apt. Off until Wednesday. Dragon is having a snit - I must do this and that her way. Just shake my head.
Going to see if car ac is cooperating, I dont want too many surprises tomorrow.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.1 -
Happy Friday,
8:45 finally under a 100 degrees. Short relief in a couple of day for a brief while. This is summer after all.
Test went - hot hot hot temps makes drinking 3 glasses of water so easy.
There is ice cream in my future this weekend. Just saying.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.2 -
Good morning all~
Boy, the days have gotten away from me. Today is a good day to get back on track.
Sara - I understand about the summer heat. Your temps really can get up there in the summer. Where I am it has been unusually hot. In any case, it makes it impossible to enjoy the old traditional summertime activities. I suspect it may take a toll on your church's activities, too.
Time to make some more coffee.....

Happy Sunday,
Wanted ice cream but got some decent Parisian pastries instead. That is hard to find in USA.
Spent today helping with food closet and will again tomorrow. I always get good walking numbers in when I do.
Also listened to the sister of the young lady who plays at church, give a small concert to raise money so she can visit her mother in Uzbekistan. Amazing how nice classical music is considering what I hear on my car radio.
Neighbor has a long haired dachshund that does not fit into her lifestyle and wants to give it to a good home. I need to do some research and meet/greet before anything is settled.

Good morning all~~
Sara - You had quite an interesting weekend 👍🏻
Definitely do your research on dachshunds. Would you ever choose one on your own? Talk to your former vet too.
They certainly are cute doggies (my neighbor is on his second). If your neighbor were to give him up to a shelter, he would be adopted quite quickly.
I have somehow managed to injure a muscle in my lower right back. I'll add that to the neck/upper back pain....
Time for some floor exercises to strengthen things....

Happy Monday,
Lana - you come up with these names, so are these men you have met?? Hmmmm....
I want a chihuahua - dachshunds need a steady person at home more often.
Made muffins for Thursday They are going in freezer. Got a real clear profile in a reflection - lets just say I can do better put more effort.
Tomorrow is teeth cleaning and serious dejunking.
Weather is kind again and I am grateful.

Hello All~~
Sara - I can see you with another chihuahua! Miss Tillie was an adorable floof of a girl! 🩷
I worked for years with a man named Kjell; he was a fabulous carpenter from Norway. Very tall and extremely handsome....
Applause for your taking care of your teeth and doing some dejunking!
I had another session with my new therapist. So far, so good. I got a little workout in the pool today. Also good.

Good evening,
Seems I have uterine lining they cannot explain- so now it is biopsy time. I will schedule an apt when I make contact with the lady who schedules (she calls me). I decided I have a pink dancing elephant inside my uterus. Why? ...why not.
Getting back to my regular walking schedule, the last 3 weeks of heat was too hot and unhealthy to walk extra. Back in the saddle again.......
Lana, nice when you can find a good therapist. I have had a few clunkers, but then maybe we all have. Keep up the good work in the pool.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.
