     Today was a settling in day.  Hubby and I haven't quite adjusted to being back from vacation yet and hubby ended up going into work an hour late.  I woke up when he was getting ready but went back to sleep until I got a phone call from my friend Pat, the one having the estate sale I am helping out on.  She called at a decent hour, 10am, and I woke up to talk to her.  We talked about the progress she has made on getting things out and priced.  She is going to pick me up Wednesday to take me over to the house so I can take pictures of the appliances and get those listed on craigslist, see if there is anything we want to list on eBay, and check out what we will be selling next weekend.  I told her I would call her on Tuesday to set up the time to pick me up and give her directions to my place.
      I woke up and weighed myself.  I'm back up to 197.2 pounds.  I had eaten a lot on vacation and gained back a bunch of weight.  I continued to graze Sunday, the first day back.  Today I did better, managing not to eat all day long.  I did eat half a ham and cheese sandwich for lunch and later I had a danish for a snack.  When hubby came home, he made spaghetti and meatballs with a salad and some bread and butter.  I ate a some of everything and managed to eat one meatball with sauce.
      One of the other things we did today was give all the dogs a bath since Kira had a poop butt.  Being a corgi, she has a fluffy butt and sometime when her bowels are loose, it sticks to her fur.  Well, she got on the bed and got poop on the comforter so tomorrow I need to wash that and hang it out to dry.  I cleaned her up as much as I could and when hubby got home, we popped her into the tub.  I trimmed her butt a little after we washed and dried her off but she needs more trimmed.
      Tomorrow I have a bone density scan scheduled at 10am and therapy at 1pm.  I have to give Steve, my therapist a post dated check for $130, good at the end of the week.
      When I told hubby that I had gained this weight back, he said we will have to start bicycling now that the weather is nice.  I agree and hope I have the balance to ride mine.  Ultimately I want to get an adult tricycle but they run around $400.
