When I selected this picture, it appeared as if it was a specialty coffee drink. Instead, it is a picture of a hot fudge sundae at Ben & Jerry's in Mt. Kisco. Yum!

Why did I keep the picture at the top of this entry? Well, it's a reminder of indulgences that I have avoided (or eased off on) over the past couple of weeks. And it's a reminder that my weight has dropped over the past few weeks. Yay! And yet, it's something to monitor, as lethargy and weight loss can mean many things. So I will make it a priority to see my GP soon.

The first thing on my docket for today was seeing my friend MSJ for lunch. This was not a day where we would review changes she made to her resume. Instead, it was a day which we exchanged stories of Thanksgiving related disasters. All too soon, 1:30 pm came around, and we had to go We'll be talking next week, and seeing each other in the new year.
Next, it was off to bring my old phone to the fix-it shop for battery replacement. The lady behind the counter was a little surprised that I came with a phone battery in hand. But then, I have previous experience trying to get battery replacements done on other Motorola phones. She told me to give her 30 minutes. So I went across the street for some hot chocolate while she replaced my battery. When I returned, the phone was ready, and it was time for me to go home to nap.

Around 4 pm, I started a load of laundry, and then got ready to go out. After I brought the laundry upstairs, I drove down to Yonkers for game night. Although I thought DS might come tonight, she was visibly absent. The loud mouthed fellow that I know she doesn't like was there, and he was in fine form. Not only was he scattershot in explaining rules to games he may have played once or twice, he was very loud in his arguments (that's a stronger word than I'd like to use) about game rules. I was getting annoyed too. It's easy to see why DS is absent most of these days - she is tired of this fellow making himself the center of attention.
We ended the evening early, and noted that our next gathering will be in 3 weeks, and not the usual 2 weeks. That's fine with me, as I could use the extra Thursday for my own purposes. But I'll have to figure out a way to give the host/hostess' children their Xmas gifts before Xmas.
