Happy birthday Tweety!  Sorry to hear about your old roommate

Hi NJ22

Ado I'm often surprised too how quickly the money goes out

Stars some days my cat has reduced appetite, never sure why.  If it's ongoing then in her case it usually means a hairball

Dianah sounds like you're making good progress and finding ways to adapt your diet

Good day at work, nothing unusual or too much to do.  Ran an errand or two after work, did some packing, and emailed my aunt and cousin to let them know when I'd be arriving Friday

Today after work will do the grocery shopping and a bit more packing, then attend a event with the gay group at a local candy shop

Will be quite warm today, nearly 90, with storms expected this afternoon

Good afternoon.

Joe, hope that you have a good day.

Yes, it is crazy how quickly money goes.  I just dropped $140 at the grocery store yesterday without blinking.

Not much going on today with me.  Didn't sleep to hot but got up and mopped, prepped lunches and will make a noodle dish and go to yoga.

its cold and rainy. I was about 5 lb heavier after a 2 mile jog. The dogs needed a lot of persuasion to go out for business. dh and I were going to help youngest grandson with his garden, but I don't know it that will happen. Trivia tonight. I got a call from the medical insurance that handles are Medigap. They have my number for dh's policy, cuz I make all the payments. But they won't talk to me cuz they don't have permission. dh needs to call, cuz I think I messed up the auto pay. And I can't do it online. So now Im worried his CPAP won't be covered. He does not share my worry. 

Yes, money seems to evaporate.

I meant to congratulate Dianah on the weight loss.  Best of luck on your journey.

Thanks Tweety!  As always, I wish it was faster and less painful (I.e., I can eat whatever I want, whenever I want, LOL!).  The real test will be how my labs come out, in three months!

I made stuffed portobello mushrooms for supper.  Also I tried a low-carb dessert, made from a 32oz Greek yogurt combined with a package of sugar-free jello.  😮  Mix all, microwave X 1.5 min, mix then microwave another minute.  Pour into sprayed pie tin, and refrigerate X 2-3 hours, then slice and eat!  Looked good in the photo, so hope it turns out.  I chose lime (as in key lime pie). 

I skipped on the walk with friends today, as the mushrooms were still in the oven.  Not good planning on my part.  I need to walk or use elliptical tonight, though, instead. 

Dh is taking a short snooze. 

Not much else planned for today.  Have a good evening!

SiL brought supper over for me when she brought Nannie back. AND, a while later, she called me and asked whose name was on the TV-WiFi service....(hubby's name still is.) I will call them tomorrow and if they need a death certificate, I have extras. SiL and BiL said to change it into Nannie's name, and then THEY will pay it each month. That's GREAT! $186.33/mo. That means I can get my new glasses (or tires, or , or, or, or...) a little bit earlier than I had planned! Well, a couple of months earlier, anyway.

Time to put Nannie to bed so Momo and I can come up and laze around for a while before we sleep. She did eat her breakfast today, by the way.

So, goodnight for now!

Dianah, no doubt the labs will look better.

That's awesome Stars.  

Ado, I think that's my sister's plan, to make the commitment to take care of my parents until their death.  Not sure if that's good for her mental health or physical capabilities or not.  It's not etched in stone, but it's a tough commitment.

I missed my exit going to yoga on a new causeway they opened to make things faster and when I finally got back on there the exit I needed didn't exist going the other direction.  But I had good intentions.

I've gained weight and am not comfortable with that.  I can't do low carb so not sure what the approach will be.  Bleh.......
