Actually CONNIE I think Yoga pants and sweats are the Baby Boomers forward generation's equivalent of a house coat. I totally get the logic of making your bed. But then there's the logic "I just have to mess it up again at night." I'm all about energy conservation. Especially MY OWN!! haha
And SUZE sure... you can borrow our wigs. I wear the wig nekkid a lot and Bob and I play "Lady Godiva and the tax collector." And at home I'm either in flip flops or bare foot no matter the season. MAYBE footies on those 5 days out of the year when my toes are cold. I used to get very cold feet. Not any more.
hahaha BECKY tell us how you feel about your internet! DON't hold back.
I took a walk and as usual instead of 20 min it was over an hour. And a glass of wine. It's hard to get around our neighborhood w/o stopping to chat.
So Bob was home when I got here. But I went in and put on footies and a housecoat and came out and he looks at me and sarcastically says "NICE Mumu" It's HEINOUS. I took a pic and was going to make it my avatar but lord.... I may not have very high personal appearance standards... but I have SOME. Left over turkey, pumpkin, white beach chili. I was going to make spaghetti and meatballs over the Shiratake noodles but I spent too much time "chatting w/ the Chickerings". She's a fascinating lady. She has some MAJOR essential tremors marginally controlled by beta blockers. She's also funny and smart. She used to be a judge in California. We joke about how in California we were the MOST conservative people in the whole state. The looked at us as if we were fascists. We got to Texas and didn't change a single opinion and we look like "bleeding heart liberals". That's the theory of relativity.

JT I'm glad you are having less swelling.Be careful if you feel off balance due to the cast .
Celeste LOL on the 1 snack.I usually have my snacks between 7:30-8:30.You notice I said snacks not a snack.You do have a vivid imagine in your story about Suze and her Poole fellow.I do notice one central theme in your story.Maybe the hippie costume has gone to your brain.Only one fruit yesterday???Is that even possible?I know you don't like fruit but 1??
Suze I think I need a drink instead of a cigarette after that story.
Sandy I'm sorry Dale is having so much pain.I have heard RA is really painful.I hope he can get some kind of relief.Kenneth has constant pain in his right arm unless he's sleeping from a stroke incurred after an operation six years ago.
Welcome back Louise.
I can see it now.Tom Selleck as Turner Poole with Mark Harmon as Sloan.All we are missing here is Sam Elliott and we would have a hit western.
Suze You are trying and that's what counts.Don't stress about it.There is always the next meal or the next day.
Angie How long were you a nurse before you started teaching?I'm glad Rick is doing well.Gotta keep the pool guy around in case you ever get to use your pool when it's not covered with snow.
Connie I know your quilt will do well at the show.Good luck tonight at work.I wish you had a fill in that actually wants to work and good luck on the computer maintenance.Pollen has improved around here for some reason today.

Celeste We went shopping at WM today too.We have a super Walmart but they don't do much business during the week which means they only have 1 or 2 checkout lanes open.I normally use the self checkout but there were some heavy items in the cart so Kenneth checked out at one of the regular lanes.He hates how they want to check receipts as people leave the store.There is one nice door person who lets me go through and she always sees us together so she lets us go through.The wind kicked up here again but it was 75 when I walked this afternoon.We have a 60% chance of rain Saturday but out of that they aren't expecting much rain but sporadic through the day.If I can get 30 min where it's not raining I could get my steps in but the recumbent bike doesn't give my as many steps as a walk plus getting steps other than the 250 steps especially in a mobile home doesn't give me very many.No wearing housecoats here.I do have some thin slippers I wear when I'm not going back out of the house.They are more comfortable than wearing sneakers all day.
Connie I have to wear slippers too b/c we have no carpet and I don't keep the hardwood floor spotless for sure.
Suze Maybe we can flip for Bob's wig.We only have 1 pickup person at our local Walmart.She is super nice and loves her job because she loves doing things for people.
We have satellite internet b/c so far that's all we can get out here on the ranch.It's not that it's that slow for me but lately I type out a long post and then it has a dang yellow triangle although my modem shows it's working.I'm not the only one that doesn't like it.The people who use this internet constantly complain about it being slow and about the people who run it are liars.I haven't had problems with CS but according to the others they can't get to a live person.My contract runs out in June but I doubt there is anything better but I'm going to be looking.I thought you meant you walked for an hour and I was going to say how impressed I was but I would have stopped for the wine also.LMAO on not posting the new picture.I really would like to see that standards or not.

Connie....fingers crossed for your quilt...hope you will send a pic of it on display. Good luck tonight....sounds like it could be a bit of a challenge between your non-help & the computers.
π on that pic Ms Godiva & friend! What was the occasion?
Too funny on the great housecoat plan. My California grandma used to wear muumuus when she came for her annual visit...oh my!
I do have a seersucker light weight robe ... only wear it after I shower until makeup & hair are done. Yoga or fleece pants & a T-shirt or sweatshirt/ fleece are my comfy clothes. I have to wear something with foot support ... good flip flops or crocs.
Becky...my internet has been spotty today, too...which is unusual. Annoying for sure.
Over 12000 steps today....gym plus went to the mall & a couple of other errands. Ok on the rest of my daily goals.
Have a book due tomorrow that I need to finish tonight...

OH YESSSSSS I like your choice of leading men, BECKY. Kind of the TRIFECTA of FOM!! (fine old men) Our WM is a SUPER also. I self check even when there are lots of cashiers unless I have a ton of stuff. We don't have receipt checkers at WM but we do at Costco.
ANGIE the pic here is the past Halloween party at Frisco Lakes, but the nekkid Godiva was b/c it was THURSDAY!! LOL I wear flip flops most of the time and I LOVE Vionics. They have the best heel cup and arch support and they're CUTE!

Okay, so I opened up to the unknown hippies and a romance novel!! Wondered where WW went..Poole boy can come shovel snow and pick up sticks. I'm sure there would be a "nice" view!!
No housecoat here. Either sweats or I'm in my pjs and bathrobe. Always have slippers on as my feet are always cold.
GO CONNIE!! You'll have to show it to us. Fingers and toes crossed for you.
Waving to all. Need to wind down and go to bed. Check in tomorrow.
JT

hahaha JT you want FROST BOY. Favio Frost. Half Italian. Half British. All sex machine!! Watch out about crossing your fingers. With that cast they might STAY that way!! Probably if I lived in your cold climate, I'd have to buy some sweats. I mean I'm too busy wearing my housecoat!! hahahaha #frumpierthanhell ANGIE don't get rid of your sweats and Uggs just yet!! OK i'm off to bed. I'm clean. I had a chunky peanut butter and kosher pickle chunk sandwich as a bedtime snack. I hope it doesn't give me NIGHTMARES!! LOL I did well on snacks and I'll have a 2nd fruit so I'll be good on the F&V. Ciao bambinas.
