Well I'm out for the night. Sweet dreams and have a good Monday tomorrow!

Had the following conversation with my dad
Dad: *brings up Downtown Disney*
Me: It's not called Downtown Disney anymore. Disney Springs, remember?
Dad: Next trip, we'll go to MGM and then to Downtown Disney.

Yeah we still lean towards calling it MGM. Downtown has been so so many names in my DS lifetime, doubt Springs will be the last.

I still love this show. They sure costumed her in trendy clothes.

The second shot is fabulous! That's an iguana, right?

Yes...I'm almost certain it is hormonal with me too. I know it has nothing to do with food triggers. Been through all that testing. Stress might play a part but doesn't seem to be a direct trigger. A lot of times, it is my body fighting off an illness. I don't seem to get sick the same way as other people in my family. The viruses seem to manifest as migraines. I don't think that's it this time though.

My triggers are definitely stress and not enough rest, and occasionally flashes of light. As far as I can tell, food and caffeine don't make much difference. I also used to cry through the pain and wish I could chop off my head. It's crazy how debilitating they can be.

I still love Hello Kitty.

Me, too! If I had the money I would decorate my home office with all Hello Kitty stuff.

 

[catmom46]

Me too. I was just thinking about how much aging has affected me. I used to do stuff like this and never give it a thought, now, although I'm not particularly nervous, I am anxious about it. I'm sure once I get places I will be fine, just not as sure of myself as I once was. (so you can imagine how obnoxious I was at a younger age. )

Was?

Working on an oral presentation with a PowerPoint on Spain, so looking at a lot of photos.

Disney should add Spain to Epcot, and maybe do a film. Seriously, Spain is gorgeous. I wanna go someday.

I'd love it if they added Greece.

 

[catmom46]

It is 44 here and 71 in WDW. I'd rather be in Disney.

It's 72 here, but I'd also rather be at Disney.

I've never done a cruise, but think that I would prefer to just take a two week trip and visit various parts of Spain. Probably Andalucía, Madrid, and Barcelona since those are the parts that would speak all or mostly Castellano (although they also speak Catalán in Barcelona).

why not? we had a great time on a cruise, perhaps you just need to experience it at least once

flrst 2 photos are indeed iguanas, one is just very young.
technically, both are young. As iguanas can go up to 1.7 meters big (including tails).

Happy Monday Y'all
Only 10 days until National Cat Day.

I've had it it's 25 horrid way too cold degrees here! I hate the cold! It looks like I'm going to have to pull out the fleece leggings to put under my sweat pants, I'm also going to need a long sleeved T to go under my sweater and sweat jacket. Hat, gloves, scarf, coat way too many layers as I'm going to look like the Michelin guy so @MinnieM123 please take all this cold to your house. Thank you xoxo

On another subject, @figmentfan423 , I thought I'd try to make a small attempt at eating a little healthier. So yesterday, I went to this place that has a farmer's market on the weekend. Figured I'd buy a bell pepper or a tomato or something, from a farm-fresh (perhaps organic?) stand. Well, I got there and it had shut down for the season. So I just wanted you to know that I tried. Drove over to Walgreens and bought a bag of M&M's instead.

It's the thought that counts

What a cute way to tie in Cat Day and Halloween

 

[Figgy1]

I love bread and butter too! Any kind of bread, and real butter. That was one of the things I missed at AoA , they changed from having real butter available to smart blend. Those plant sterols are really bad for your joints. I was feeling the effects by the end of the trip. No more of that for me!

Sympathy like. Have you tried the Earth Balance olive oil or coconut spread? You might have good luck with those and no dairy

 

[Figgy1]

I love that ride I have a few more pictures that I would like to share, I hope no one minds if I repeat some, I just can't remember what I posted.

Thank you and post away! xoxo

Thanks for relating this @figmentfan423. Gives me encouragement that I might lose some weight. I found walking at the end of the day, very painful. I didn't have that in June, so I have to do much better for the next June trip. I'm hoping I will be somewhat better before January.

You can do it, just do a little bit every day, do something different every day and remember to rest one day a week. You might want to look into some exercise DVDs for seniors. Good luck.
