Put in a new Kohler toilet in the guest bathroom.
Each year, since 1979, a group of friends from college (graduating in '77 and '78) has met once yearly for lunch or dinner. Many times, we are not all present and often there are "extras". Today we met and all five "core" members all there.....Three of us are retired. ....
I graduated in '77 as well. I'm surprised that 3 out of 5 of you are retired, I have trouble finding anyone my age that is retired around here so I end up hanging out with so local retirees in their mid 60s and up.
Heh...that used to be my mantra....Just back from the family Christmas gathering in AL. Good to see everyone, but glad it's over. Will enjoy the next few days with the mutt, a bottle of wine and good food I brought back with me. And will enjoy some peace and quite. I'll start my diet January 1. I'll let you know what year later.
Heh...that used to be my mantra....
Mid November (my six month checkup), my doc at my weight. Since then I've changed my eating habits and the pounds are slowly melting away. I'm doing this mostly for health reasons and of course a little vanity.
I need to replace my digital scale as it's old and very touchy. For instance, the other night I weighed myself and it showed I was 20 lbs lighter than I was the day before. The only way that could have happened is if I had lost a limb....
I don't need a fancy one...telling me fat density (I know that), just one that is consistently accurate and I can see the number without using binoculars.
Hmmm...sounds like I need to see if he's accepting new patients.I can't read the scale very well either. I'm not changing. Now if I can just find one of those mirrors that makes me look skinny.
Actually when I went to the doc back in Oct, I told him I needed to lose 10 lbs. He looked at me, shrugged his shoulders and said nothing. I've always liked this doc.
Thanks...Nice going bam(bi) on the melting of poundage! And with the worst months of the year temptation wise too.
I like that digital scales today can weigh in increments of a pound--every little bit helps! Mine is pretty old, but very consistent with being 1.5 lbs less than any doctors office scale, from the beginning. Obviously someone needs to re calibrate all those doctors office scales.

Another '77 college grad here. And I also have trouble finding anyone my age around here that is retired, except one former coworker (and I've been retired for four years now! ).
Steamed two dozen super-spicy home made chicken tamales.
