Friday Roundup

Weekends are a bit like rainbows; they look good from a distance but disappear when you get up close to them.

Good morning everyone. It's Friday. Used to be my most favorite day of the week. Now it's just another day. In fact, I always think Thursday is Friday now. Don't know why. I just find myself looking for Bluebloods at 10 pm and then it hits me that it's only Thursday. Oh, the freedom of retirement!!!!

I had a good night's rest last night. Went to be at 10 pm, fell right out, bathroom run at 1am, another one at 5am, but this time I didn't lie awake after the 5 o'clock run waiting for the noise to begin. I was able to fall back asleep until 6:30. Wonder how long this peace will last. Who will be upstairs next?  I'm expecting Leadfoot at some time today.  It's rent time, and he has to pick up the bill and clean up after his 'guests' left.  Grrr!!!!!  But, little does he know that the wheels are already in motion to get him out of there.

Stayed the same on the scale yesterday.  Cannot break through this plateau. Not giving up though. I'll get there. Just have to tweak a few things to get my metabolism re-started.  It's been months now.  -.2, stay the same, +.2, stay the same, and then the same sequence is repeated over and over again.  And I remain 3.6 pounds away from the 50 pound loss mark.

It's going to be a cool day out today with some showers on the way. I'm off to do my monthly banking today. Can't believe that bill time is here already. Seems to come quicker every month.  Wouldn't it be nice if everyone gave us a one month's grace period on our bills?  Oh, what I could do with that extra money.

Have a wonderful weekend.
