Travel
Gotta be careful today! I was ready to leave the house to go to the library and then to the gym, and decided to hit the bathroom before leaving. Lo and behold! I realized I put my sweat pants on backwards this morning, with the drawstring tie in the back! It feels good to be exercising on the treadmill again. I haven't done any exercise at all since my dental extraction early Monday. I'm feeling great - never had a moment's pain after the tooth was pulled - just from the injection sites, and they still hurt a bit. I'm glad that's over with although I have to see the dentist next Monday so he can be sure everything is ok.I've been dealing with travel plans this morning and still haven't figured exactly what clothes and shoes I'm taking along. Jeannie and I looked at dresses at Macy's, and I found one that was okay but not anything to rave about except it was on sale. Jeanne mentioned that she had several dresses that would probably fit me and that I should take a look and try them on before spending the money for a new one. I tried on four dresses when we got back to her house, and selected one that I like very much and it will go well with my new sandals. I'll post a picture when I wear it in Milwaukee. I have two lovely dresses, both long and both rather bare on top. Milwaukee in Feb. isn't the place for "bare shoulders"!
All I have left to work on with my 1000 pc. jigsaw puzzle is blue sky! I wonder why I always save something like that for last. Every time I walk past the puzzle I spot a piece that fits, but I doubt I'll have it together before I leave next week. I'll be glad when I can put it away, or give it to Joe & Sarah to work on. Steve gave several puzzles to me and Joe took one home - he and Sarah finished it in two evenings. My eyes were a heck of a lot better when I could do that, but I'm surprised I do as well as I do.
Not much going on here except I'm going crazy trying to get all my reservations made, papers together, list of things to do before I leave. It'll happen and a week from tomorrow I'll be in Milwaukee enjoying a beer!

February Is Flying By!
I look at the calendar and think "It can't be the 11th of February already!" I have too much left to do in the next couple of weeks, and I spent at least an hour today working on the puzzle. I'd like to get it finished and boxed before...

Blood Pressure - Again
I finally heard from my doctor regarding the blood pressure readings I sent him a couple of weeks ago. By now I don't want to touch any bp medicine with a 10 ft. pole! He says to keep monitoring and we may need to start a low dose of bp...

Waiting Out The Heat
It's still unbearably hot, but after the triple digits all this week we will get back into the 90's. I never thought I'd be relieved to be in 90 degree weather. Have I said how much I hate hot weather? I dropped...

Making Plans
Jeannie called me this morning and told me that Arianna said to her, "I'm so excited about camping. I already know which dress I'm going to wear, but don't worry, it isn't white so it won't get dirty!" I said I wondered...
