Unhappy Mystery oil leak

I have a 2007 Civic LX with 160,000 that over the last 6 months has started to lose a quart of oil every month. No oil on the floor of the garage. No sign of excess oil on the engine. No smoking, No soot on the plugs. It just disappears.

it's going out the tailpipe.
How much driving do you do a month? Over 500?
It's expected, just check your oil every week.
