111 this morning.

47° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 54°/31° and cloudy.  It was 19° when I went out to feed the cats, inside their house was 41°. All the outside water bowls (except the heated one on the front porch) were frozen solid, but inside the kitty house no frozen water. I don't think I need to put a heated bowl in there after all.

Well, what I can make out on the Bone Density scan report is my density is Normal, meaning no Osteopenia or Osteoporosis. They did find the results of my original Scan back in 09/2004 and did comparisons so I guess the findings are good news! II'll get a better explanation when I see my pcp in January.

Only one more dr appt this month, Podiatrist to have my claws trimmed next week. That's it. for the rest of the yeat!

85 this morning. Salad for dinner always gives me a good fasting number.  Our high yesterday was 85° and it may be a bit warmer today.
Glad your result was good Barbara. One more thing you don't have to worry about.

Yeah when I lived on the mountain I got a lot more driving in and didn't mind it because it was what you knew was part of living in a remote area and it was worth it but as I have gotten older I do appreciate not having to drive as much and it is so nice to have everything so close. I do like living in town and this is still not a big town and nothing like bigger cities.

Speaking of bigger cities, Los Angeles is getting fired up about the World Series as the LA Dodgers are hosting the first game against the New York Yankees in Dodger Stadium tonight and I can't imagine how insane the traffic will be there. The other thing I can't get my head on is that the cheapest ticket for the game is $900 and it goes up from there to several thousand dollars for just one ticket. I remember going to Dodger games paying $10 for a box seat ticket. My how times have changed.

Crazy isn't it!  They have to pay the players their crazy large salaries so it trickles down to all the costs involved with getting tickets/food/parking (I suppose)/etc. dumped on the fan. I can't fathom paying those kinds of prices....yep the times they have changed...not so much for the good...

89 this morning. We don't do Taco Tuesday here, any day can be Taco day and it was last night! ~hgr~

Our high yesterday was 87° and it is supposed to be the same today and tomorrow but cooling down a lot on Monday and all next week so we may finally see the leaves turning. So far it has been just a little bit but with overnight lows in the 30s they should all turn.
Amazing, I looked at my calendar and I have no appointments next week. I am ready for that.

125 this morning.

48° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 65°/35° and clear.  28° when I went out to feed the kitties. I overslept a bit and they were quite anxious to be fed!! 45° in their house.

I know the feeling Wally, I only have the Podiatrist next week then nothing until Jan 9th! I barely even count the Podiatrist as a dr appt!!

I think today is going to be a lazy day....

107 this morning. Our high yesterday was 87° again and it is supposed to be the same today then a big cool down tomorrow and WINDY. It's about time for the temp to drop but not looking forward to the wind but that is normal with a front going through.

We had spaghetti last night and I use "zoodles" and do pretty good with the zucchini noodles and no sugar added sauce. I think that one of the best kitchen tools I ever got was the spiralizer to make the "zoodles".

124 this morning.

60° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 56°/31° cloudy with some showers in afternoon/evening.  25° when I went out to feed kitties, their house inside temp 40°. The oil heater is doing its job perfectly.

I need to make some order in my office for the crystal lady's visit tomorrow. I'm trying really hard to keep the focus each visit on a specific area instead of flitting all over leaving me not knowing exactly what she has seen and not seen. LOL, I'm getting her trained but I have to have an area ready. That is today's project.

Otherwise, I kind of liked the rest day yesterday so may try some again today!  ~ cat ~

ETA: I'll second your thought on the spiralizer!! Best tool, right along with my Magic Bullet.  I use the little steamer cup that came with the MB a lot to steam single servings of veggies.

109 this morning.

Yesterday's high was 61°, today's forecast is 57°/31° with possible light showers in the morning and evening with a possibility of light snow in the night.

Crystal lady comes at 9AM, she usually stays 2-3 hours. Then I have to take garbage up to road. If we get the showers, the leaves are going to be a mess to try to rake. I may have missed my window.

I have to go down to the other town tomorrow for Podiatrist appt. I think I will look around at leaf blowers while I am there. My better hope would be up in the larger town north of me, but I'm not going that way this week. My local Ace is a choice too if I don't find anything tomorrow.

The rest of the day I think will be lazy, my knees are reacting to the change in the weather so want to rest them.  I'll just let the cat curl up on my lap and watch TV and read other things on the computer.

85 this morning. Our high yesterday was 84° and now it is going to get colder with a 71° prediction for today and it is supposed to be windy but so far it has not started.
I am not having a very good nights sleep with the sciatica waking me up during the night but I am still managing so I hope that it will get better.

If I trusted the seller it would be fine.  LOL! Do you have one to sell?  ~kdn~

Tomorrow when I get home I'll check out Craigslist.

I did know it would sound like that. Even if I did have one, the transportation costs would be unbearable.

Another 109 this morning.  32° when I got up at 6:15am.

Yesterday's high was 50°, today's forecast is 46°/23° cloudy, possibly a rain/snow shower in the morning.

Today is Podiatrist appt so I go to the town to the South. Still learning my way around there. Another drop off at Goodwill and I think I know where the Ace is there for a quick look at leaf blowers.  Hmmm, I wonder if they could be used to blow powdery snow too??
