I took my dog for her nail trim today. She was very good. My one close neighbor drove us. It's her birthday. She doesn't celebrate it tho as she is 74 and feels birthdays are just one year closer to death. Not too cheerful! I respect her wishes tho i did send an email with a fun gif of a flashing birthday cake and candles. She likes email and said it was very thoughtful of me.

We've had two days of bad weather and my diet is a mess. I don't know what to do. The appetite suppressing effect of drastically reducing my diet cola consumption has worn off and now dieting is just as hard as it's ever been since menopause. I am not optimistic.
