Thread Name: FITNESS & Declutter 2022 - Pandemic redux
Subject: RE: FITNESS & Declutter 2022 - Pandemic redux
Today I've moved two COVID posts over to the COVID thread [looking at you, Don] - let's keep posts here related to declutter topics and references to the pandemic dropped mainly in passing.

Reports suggest we got about 8" of rain here, this part of town is soggy but fine. The yard didn't flood though I think there was water over the bridge at some point during the night.

More clothes moved over to the "no longer fit" pile and trying on other stuff at the back of the dresser drawer or in the closet. My older swim suit fits but is a little snug in the shoulder straps, but given a little more work will probably fit ok. I'll hold onto both and when I reach the point when I'm ready to head to the pool I'll try them both again.

Making more pickled okra tonight, and for lunch today I had a plate of fried okra. Measuring it (for MyFitnessPal) shows that five or six 4" pods add up to 1 cup of the nuggets, a nice portion and quick to cook. I have to take some okra next door also.

In other diet news, it has been my habit for a while now to put a scoop (~1 tsp) of gelatin into my banana-strawberry-yogurt smoothie and I'm finding my fingernails are in pretty good shape. Too bad I don't play the guitar. :)

Dorothy, I hope you get your stove fixed before the upcoming family visit.
