Good evening,
Did not need a letter as the manager does not agree with the 4/10 schedule and starting Monday I am working 5 days a week. I get an hour more time in the morning and an hour after work so that I can stop living in sleep mode. Also makes getting a dog a little easier - dog walks and time between dog walks.
So things are improving on that front.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.1 -

Oh my goodness!!! Miss Sara, that is such happy, happy news! What a wonderful change for you. Things are looking up ☀️
Therefore, Philippe and The Boys will be having a very special Friday Happy Hour at The Cabana Club.🌴
I hear that there will be a few new hires for us to rest our eyes on. Mmmm. 🤩

Happy Saturday all~~
I am going to take myself to a museum today--always good for clocking some steps.
What are your plans?
Edit to add: 🧀 SARA! There is a grilled cheese festival this weekend in Sacaramento! OMG!

Good afternoon,
Lana - that is a ridiculous link - but I had Grilled Cheese and ham on Thursday at work...... Stockton a nearby city just had an asparagus festival and I would consider a Grilled Cheese and asparagus sandwich....
Dont worry my hairdresser's daughter told me the Korean Fried Chicken place just opened and it was between the hairdresser and Target. Got the Garlic/Honey option. Have enough to make rice and have 2 more meals.
Got some good steps in at Target looking for an MP3 player - got a cd player instead (items are not in stock making wall look bare.....) as I get Tuesday off phone and refuse to not have music.
Hotter weather upper 80-low 90 this week - no rain - so time to go through closet and rearrange.
Hope you get your steps in today Lana.
Wishing all a good day . Stay safe and sane out there.1 -

Oh boy! It's Sunday, and that means I get to go home tomorrow. There's no place like home.
Sara, I did get my steps in yesterday, and I'm hurting because of it. Today will be low key, getting ready to leave.
I do love asparagus !

I think there’s a problem with my app - I’ve only just been able to load the community pages? It hasn’t worked for ages 😢 I hope everyone is well, apologies if my posts get more sporadic I’m trying to figure it out1

Cruskit - so nice to see you! I hope that you can re-install your app and get things working again!

Good evening,
Shorter work day is a wonderful improvement. Came home took a nap and now I am eating dinner. Feel more human.
Lana how does your place in NYC feel with less things in it?
Weather is stupid warm here and may hit 100 on Wednesday. I just rolled my eyes.

Good evening!
Hope all is well. It was a pretty steady Monday. I kept saying today that I will take dogs for walk. Well I did and swarming bees in the backyard assisted with that decision. Huskies each got 22 ish minutes bichon only 11 ish minutes. They could have gone for more but it was later as I had to run errands after work and wanted to make sure all dogs got a chance. Home and walked them all in backyard for one last time just before thunderstorms came rolling in. Going to do the same tomorrow but maybe double the dogs up. We will see. Everyone have a great night and hope everyone has a great week if I don’t check in daily as the week sometimes or oftentimes flies right on by.

Good morning all~~
Sara - so happy for you with your civilized work schedule. Boy, the 100 degree weather is coming, isn't it?
The bedroom part of the apartment is a little more open without his tall shelf unit that held the TV etc, but the place is still the congested hole it always was because I am sorting things into big piles as to whether it goes in a dumpster or comes down to NC. It will be a long process for the rest of this year.
Missy - good grief! Swarming bees!? Yikes! That is scary.
Waving to all who stop by later on~~

Happy Tuesday,
Still learning how to do right click on the computer otherwise we would have a nice pretty sedate scene.
Boss hounding me daily 'do I like the new schedule?" I finally told her it has only been 2 days - gee whiz medication takes 2 weeks to show improvement but I digress. The official word is that she made the change and gets all credit for it - I get to have more of a life so I figure that's okay.
Lana - where are you???
Missy- Wow you almost need a dog walker - but think about all those steps. I bet you all slept well.
Spent the day listening to cds at work I havent heard in a long time. Boss was trying so hard to make as much noise as possible because she hates it when her staff has earplugs in. I was laughing to myself.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

Happy to report bees have moved one but they did not go back home to neighbors hive. If I see them again I’ll be knocking on their door. Lol. Got half of the backyard mowed last night. Took a good 45 minutes mower kept getting clogged up due to the tall grass (mower was broken and needed a new blade so grass grew like it is their duty). Got Zumba on the schedule for tonight and will finish mowing Thursday night.2

Good morning everybody ☀️
Now that I am back home in NC, my current project is to wrangle XDH's belongings that are still here in the house. Supposedly, packers and movers are coming next Tuesday or Wednesday to take his stuff away. He is a mental health mess and having trouble with his moving company, and this plan could change. I am just going with the flow....
Sara - Boy, your boss seems to have mental health woes of her own, right? You keep on jammin' with your tunes whenever you can 👍🏻 🤩
Missy - your next door neighbor keeps bees? Yikes. That's something I admire from a long distance!
Good for you on the mowing of the lawn.
Waves to anyone who pops by the Cabana Club today 🌴

Good evening,
Perfect weather for salads 98 with 13% humidity - yuck. Salad and greek yogurt for dessert.
Grocery delivery is more salads and yogurt - see a trend??
Lana one box at a time and it will get done - reward yourself by recreating the new space.
MIssy like that your neighbor has bees so long as they dont migrate.......
Ceiling fan on and blinds closed - it is possibly a long summer.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

Lana and Sara - yup admire from a difference especially when one of my dogs loves to try and eat them.1

Good evening,
Another twisted day at work in that I do not understand something said and will ask for translation. Boss will be back Tuesday.
Missy when dog eats bees dont they get stung???
Salad today and tomorrow for lunch. Dinner has been a bit of a sugar bomb, so the fruits and veg are masking some not so friendly eating.
However brain is tired and time to turn the volume from the world down.

Heavens! It's Friday today--always a good thing, especially for Sara, when Monster Boss is far away. 👾
Missy - 🥺 cannot imagine a pup eating a bee! Yikes!
Well, today is Friday, which means I get to take a nice drive in the country to pick up my veggies for the week from the new farm that started up nearby. Yay!
See you all later for the Cabana Club Happy Hour! 🌴 Hey Tracy, are you coming?

Good afternoon,
Will be at the Cabana club sitting on the woe is me couch until the music gets good.
Things at work are getting even more confusing and crazy (hard to imagine I know). Almost lost my cool and would have mouthed off non productively. Came up with an idea for ice cream at work this summer with a coworker which may have wings.
Windy and smokey as fires are starting up.

Serial starter...that's me!
Never been to WW, but am a TOPS member for many years in fits and starts. Same with MFP. Starting yet again. I have been on a long plateau which isn't the worst thing, but need to push a little harder again. New life, just retired, lost my mom, selling parent's house, what more can I change? Is there ever an age where life slows down? Nope. Just keep plugging on. 2 -

Good morning y'all ~~
Welcome to Flutechick! Very sorry about your losing your mother; that is really hard.
It is possible that life will slow a bit for you once the house is sold. Hugs 🤗
Sara - what the heck is going on at work? You certainly don't need to answer that. I feel frustrated for you that you can't just go there, put in an honest day's work in a peaceful, productive atmosphere.
There should be no drama, unless of course one is working in the theatre. Ha!
Enjoy your weekend 🤗
Missy - are you working this weekend?
Waves to Tracy and Cruskit and Jordanna and all who pop by this weekend 🌴

Good afternoon,
Got up in the middle of the night and started thinking about premade pork carnitas and decided to make it myself (lower salt and spice). So it is in the fridge and will be started later today - 2 hours in oven.
Think salads, with beans/rice and sandwiches - can also freeze. Like I said trying to make ahead meals and things are getting boring and way too hot.
I have to wait until I get a new phone as mine is messed up and then I can get an Internet/cable package and move home - tired of this I can and I cant stuff.
However I had a nice time shopping at the International Store and I am home for the day.

Hi! Yup I worked today. First two hours of my 6 hour shift was cleaning store. Exceeded step goal an hour in. I’m wiped. Dogs are wiped they don’t like the 86 degree weather out of blue.
And same to bad drama and work seem to go together even though it shouldn’t.0 -

The carnitas sound yummy. Now I’m hungry 🤤0 -
Oh, Sara and Missy, now I'm hungry too! I'll have to go look up what a carnitas is. 😋

Good morning all!
I am soooo close to loosing 40 pounds! It's been a crazy month for me. First I got covid, which was awful. And now I'm just getting over a terrible 48 hour stomach flu. It was sooo bad. But today I feel 100x better and am going to clean my house top to bottom. It's so sunny and beautiful here in BC so I'm excited to get outside at some point as well. We have a beautiful river here and so many great walking trails. I don't think my energy is quite there for the gym, but a nice walk will be perfect.
I hope you all have a great day!
