Thurs 3 Dec

Hoping I have good energy to walk with Kathy this morning. My legs still feel a tad weak, but otherwise I feel okay. My scale was under 150 for the first time in quite a long time, so the decrease in appetite has been helpful. Hopefully I'll be able to work off of this when my full appetite returns. Successfully completed a walk with Kathy, and must not have been too slow as I got home around the usual time with my 10,000 steps. Fortunately, I'm also not totally wiped out so I will be fine for tutoring. Went out erranding this afternoon and got the goodie bag for the Advent tree from church done. Bought the ingredients to make cookies tomorrow afternoon for the choir bake sale on Sunday. And discovered a good selection of fairly reasonably priced artificial Christmas trees at Kmart so I'm taking Bob back to possibly buy one. It certainly is easier, and possibly cheaper in the long run than buying a stand and possibly replacing lights. I just can't bear using that ugly thing we had to buy at the last minute last year when the selection was so picked over. Cooked a Mediterranean quinoa mix from Aldi's to go with the salmon but it was so salty we couldn't eat it.
