@midwesterner That's really funny! I have had it happen to me - I got mistaken for a waitress at a few restaurants because I was wearing my all black Starbucks uniform at the time...
But really, sometimes it is difficult to find people who work at the stores - especially retail clothing stores with no set uniform!0 -
I'm still cracking up about the resting nice face.0

I have the worst case of RBF. Plus I live in southern WV but I'm from DC so I have kind of a harsh monotone voice and everyone else has a southern accent. So I like to say I also have the vocal equivalent of RBF. I swear I'm really nice I just don't look or sound that way. Also I'm pretty introverted so I have trouble making small talk with strangers. Also when I'm being sarcastic people think I'm serious and often when I'm being serious people tell me I'm so funny. I'm a mess!!! lol3

It's Say It Saturday!
It's the Weekend!!! Yay! I'm determined to be easy on myself today. No beating myself up saying I have to do x,y, and z. I know what I have to get done and will get there.
I'm also trying to think of mantras for the weekend to motivate myself. Of course I found one for the group here too...
Haha! I LOVE it! Scream it with me now....5 -
If I screamed that now (3:43am) my poor sleeping husband would have die either from fright or from falling down the stairs trying to get down here to find out what's wrong! So... maybe later I'll scream that out
haha

Have had a tough few days and haven't really got online much - have missed the forum - am off on holiday on Wednesday to visit my sister - she lives on an island off the west coast of Scotland which is idyllic and peaceful, going to be spending 10 wonderful days there. I have fallen off the ZC wagon unfortunately and it's not going to be easy getting back on while at my sisters - she is pretty much a vegetarian and shops on the island are limited and over 20 miles from my sisters house - so have decided to go with the flow and eat whatever I am given as close to LC as I can. I am also going to take the time to work through some binge issues that keep coming up and try some new strategies to try to get rid of them once and for all.
Hope everyone is doing fab - have a great few weeks everyone6 -

Since I traveled so much for work I know many airports like the back of my hand - I'm that person who will always jump in and help when someone is lost or finding their way. Sometimes it doesn't work out so well for me though - I want to help but I have no desire for small talk with strangers at an airport gate. I once spent 2 minutes to tell a woman where she needed to be and it happened to be close to where I needed to be...I spent the next two hours learning all about her life.
So is it weird I don't want to do that in airports but on here I want to know about everyone?0 -
Good morning everyone!
It's Something Sunday!
My brain just won't work for me this morning! So you guys get to think of your own title for today!
I feel like I cleaned all day yesterday. Knowing my kids when they wake up it will look like I did nothing all day! I did manage to make some curtains for my bedroom they aren't finished but I hung them up anyways. I'm going to put some wooden beads on them eventually. I also got around to finally fixing my body pillow that had a few bursting seams. Oops!
I really wanted to do my Bollywood exercise video last night but I've somehow lost my DVDs remote in my recent cleaning obsessions. So I decided to try out some kickboxing instead. I didn't have one lb gloves to wear so I though I could use my 2lb weights instead! Ha! My arms never knew what hit them! I will say it was fun, and my arms definately need the toning and strength! They were still in shock when I went on to my yoga for the evening which led to some really shaky poses.
Anyways, I hope everyone has a great day! I'm going to enjoy my coffee and fantasize about the bacon I'll be eating in a little while....

Do Something Sunday? Something you don't normally find/make time for during the week. I think I'll go to the park with my Pokemon-chasing kiddo.0

Thanks, @Phrick Do Something Sunday sounds perfect for me. I went to vigil Mass so the only thing scheduled is a soak in the Jacuzzi to ease my sore back and thighs. My other goal is to get my floors cleaned. (Dark, dark wood floors and a shedding orange tabby don't go together very well.) And when the heat climbs to over 85 I'll be sitting with my crocheting and a pitcher of ice water.1

Um....does sleeping til Noon count as something on a Sunday? I couldn't get going today at all - that coupled with a lousy headache...I did make keto pancakes for the kids at lunch and put some deer chili (no beans) in crockpot...and watched a LOT of TLC shows...2

I kept some of the more expensive pieces...maybe I can get those tailored.
I think you should take the plunge @RowdysLady. You will feel better!
You are probably right...maybe this next weekend....0 -
Sunday was spent cleaning/organizing. I moved several pieces of furniture to open up more space, provide storage in rooms that needed it. Of course, as I started I kept seeing other small tasks I wanted done...re-potting plants, extra dusting, oiling wood, mopping all floors... was getting out of hand. Decided to designate a cut-off time and focus on 3 areas...that was my workout for the day.

I was out late Sat. night... went to bed about 4-5 hours later than normal, so I slept in until 11am. So I called it a lazy Sun. Did the last thing due yesterday for class, mowed the lawn, did laundry, some other cleaning, and sealed up seams and holes in all of the visible areas of ducts in the basement (it might help a little with energy efficiency, and it is easy, so...).
I noticed there is a rapidly growing fungus on the trunk of my giant silver maple (by giant, I mean my best estimate based on measurements and average growth rate is that it's about 243 years old). The good news is that the fungus has been identified as an oyster mushroom, which is edible if I choose. I need to look at the macros on that and find some recipes.3 -
Afternoon everyone.
It's Man Down Monday for me. Well it should be woman down, but you get the point.
Went to bed with an achey hip woke up and could barely walk and the pain now goes from knee to under my ribs on the side. Ugh.
Called off work, hate the idea of that since I really can't afford any missed days.
So it's eating on plan, drinking lots of liquids and taking painkillers.0 -
Get well soon @ProCoffeenator!
Today has been your standard Monday...getting caught up from the weekend at work. But it does make time go by faster, so I guess that is a plus.
Weekend was pretty busy...very social. My boyfriend's mother is in town visiting so we went out and had some dinner/drinks. Also have friends visiting from Toronto so I met up with them as well. All this running around has made me a bit tired.
But that's where coffee comes in. It is definitely my saviour on days like today. Got my workout in...albeit had to skip the bench due to time constraints and both of them being used up, but I can add it to tomorrow's work out.
So I have a confession to make: I have never really watched Seinfeld before. I bring this up because my boyfriend and his mother had been watching it while I came over and while I kind of know about it...I have never really sat down and watched it. Do you guys like it? If so, what episodes do you suggest I watch?0 -
Hello everyone! I'm Jessica, I'm 25 and been on MFP for a year and a half now. Today is my start day of Keto. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. I've been reading posts and getting lots of information thank you all so much!
I'm hypothyroid and while I lost close to fifty pounds in my first six-eighth months here I've been pretty much stalled ever since then.
I'm getting married next year and I have that dream wedding 'look' that I'm hoping I can get too!
Wish me luck on day 1!5 -
Feel better @ProCoffeenator and welcome to the world of Keto @procolorer I love it and I hope you do too! Just a normal work Monday for me here - but I've only had my BPC today and am very conscious of my habit eating. I'm trying very hard to only eat if hungry today. Today starts day one of conscious eating! I went up a couple of pounds and I can't seem to drop them off so hopefully this will make it happen...I can't keep going in the wrong weight direction.0

I can't stand Seinfeld. Couldn't stand it when it was on 20 years ago and can't stand it in reruns now. Just never quite got it.1 -

No, see, most Canadians are way too polite to ever do this....

@samanthaluangphixay Seinfeld can be very alienating as you'll either love it or hate it. I love it. My husband hates it. Also I'm sure there are some exceptions but in general I found if you were of age to have watched sitcoms in the 90's you either liked Friends or Seinfeld and rarely both. I detest Friends. My favorite episodes in no particular order: The Chinese Restaurant, The Serenity Now, The Soup Nazi, The Parking Garage, The Junior Mint, The Fusilli Jerry...I could go on. lol1
-
@anglyn1 Thanks for your input! I am actually a Friends fanatic - a master of trivia, if you will. I will give Seinfeld a proper try - and see if it clicks.
Is the humour like The Office? It took a few tries for me to get into that show but I like it now.1 -
Today has been good as far as Mondays go. Lol. I woke up with more energy than I've had in awhile, had my lunch prepped last night and had the time to sit and sip my BPC. I have Zumba tonight so that will be fun.
Hope everyone is having a fabulous Monday!1 -
@samanthaluangphixay I find it hard to compare Seinfeld with others shows. It's maybe a little bit drier humor than The Office. Not quite as awkward maybe? Jerry certainly isn't as loveable as Michael Scott. It's like taking that one random tiny part of your day that didn't go as planned or just a normal annoying part of life and making it into a whole episode...but not in a bad way? lol.
Anyhow let me know how it goes! I hope you end up liking it!0 -
Has anyone ever heard the Chris Rock joke about how the easiest way to get away with murder is to kill a rapper... because the police never solve it? As part of the bit, he points out that Tupac was killed on the Las Vegas strip after a Mike Tyson fight. He says that more people saw Tupac get killed than saw the last episode of Seinfeld. But what is that, like 2 people?! Just kidding... calm down if you are a Seinfeld fan.2
