    Break time! Woohoo! It needs to 5! We have a long weekend! I have a whole bunch of cleaning to do! Paperwork and research. A friend suggested that we look into getting him temporary/partial disability.

    I'm with you, I am anxiously waiting for the day to get gone! I have a lot I want to be doing at home and can't do it here.

    Exactly! I can start my budget here but I really don't feel like.

    I want to dig into my craft room some more, I was on a roll yesterday when I got interrupted.

    I get in a roll when I'm doing personal money things like budgeting. It'll be a lot easier when their isn't a husband demanding attention. LOL!

    Can feel the excitement for the long weekend from across the pond! We had ours last weekend and now feels like we are hurtling towards the return to school at a terrifying pace. I’ve had all this time but I’m not quite ready!

    Had a good day today. As my older daughter was on a sleepover yesterday and then went to cooking club with two friends, I did one for my youngest at home. We made two cakes (Victoria sponge and lemon) for my niece’s bday tomorrow, chocolate chunk cookies, fudge chip cookies, a loaf of bread and a humongous mac and cheese. Then picked up my older daughter and two of her friends and they all spent the afternoon together here. So some of the pasta and cookies have gone!

    BUT I am literally staring at a pile of temptation. I have been avoiding it as I just don’t feel strong enough to moderate at the moment. Plus I ate all the food last weekend with the bf so can’t really justify it!

    Friday goals recap
    - morning workout ✅
    - Laundry ❎
    - Cooking day! Make bread dough/cookie dough and leave to rise/chill ✅
    - Jog down to cafe for a coffee with the munchkin ❎ out of time, had to drive
    - Buy cocoa powder ✅
    - Cookery class! ✅
    - Pick up older daughter and her friend at 2:45 ✅
    - name labels on uniform/shoes - half ✅
    - Early night ✅

    Saturday goals
    - morning workout
    - laundry
    - finish name labels
    - freeze leftovers
    - birthday tea for niece
    - stay within calorie goal
    - rest

    Have a fantastic long weekend those who have it. I will be thinking of you @snowflake1968 - please keep us posted x

    Unbelievable ~ I started this post this morning at work, and it's just been crazy today... I am packing up my office space for relocation on Tues. then learned the space I'm moving to is (sort of) empty this afternoon. So I've been packing my boxes as planned today, and then moving and unpacking today! At least I'm getting lots of activity at work instead of just sitting at my desk. It's dead in the dept. this afternoon, only one other co-worker still here before the holiday weekend. Anyway...

    Recap Th 8/30
    1) Walked dog before work ~ gorgeous morning! 3.27 mi 57:51 ~ a little short so I could do #2 below = happy dog B) & happy me B)
    2) Washed / hung 2 loads laundry outside before work / take down after work before leaving (see #3 below) :# Since sun didn't make appearance until late afternoon, had to throw some clothes in dryer before folding ~ can tell it's late summer.
    3) Usual breakfast, lunch & snacks prelogged / 10-12c water / tonight is another "Taste" event filled with food & adult beverage samples ~ this time downtown in 2 block area with 2 music stages ~ attending w/ friend(s) (not sure who's showing up) ~ will enjoy whatever samples I decide to try / not logging anything tonight (how could I?) + no regrets! Month end weigh in will be skewed + who cares? :smiley: 12c water. Arrived at Taste of Broadway hungry! Had a wonderful time enjoying food samples, adult beverages & music with my friends. <3 No regrets! :D
    4) Move hourly / stairs breaks at work ~ tomorrow is last day of workplace step challenge that started in April! = Wow, with dog walk, stairs breaks, laundry outside & street event, steps really add up! Fitbit 19,771 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) & 37 floors :smiley:
    5) Floss :s / retainers :s / bed & TV off 11:00 :smiley: (walk dog before work F)

    JFT F 8/31
    1) Walked dog before work & saw turkeys sitting on fence along conservancy, looked so funny! 3.58 mi 1:01:18 / stretched = happy dog B) & happy me B)
    2) Move hourly / stairs breaks at work / pack up stuff in office for desk relocation on Tues.

    Sat. is middle brother's wedding. There will be lots of car time (est. 4-5 hours all-told) plus the ceremony plus the dinner and I have no idea about any reception (remarriage on both sides & they're trying to economize).

    Today's intention was to get a gel manicure and a pedicure. And I got that done. Got a call from my Dr. who said that my B12 is low and to come in and get a shot once a week for 4 weeks and monthly afterward. So that is done.
    Looking forward to a weekend of college football and perhaps a boatride. And of course, my intent is to do my exercise every day.
    🙋👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
    Once those B12's get into your system...look out world...you're going to feel a lot better.

    When does school go back for you? My grandson starts back on Tuesday.

    Monday for us. I am excited but nervous about starting fresh with a new class. They always seem so small in the first half term!

    What grade do you teach?

    Year 1 (5-6 year olds). Lots of fun but very tiring! They transition from a more informal, free play style in Reception (age 4-5) to desk-based, formal learning in Year 1 and lots of them find the first term really hard.

    But it’s a magic year too. Watching them really get the hang of reading and then learning to read for pleasure is pretty cool. They come in as babies and leave as confident little learners (hopefully!). X

    I bet it's so rewarding. My grandson is going into Grade 2 here, he will be 7 on the 13th. It's remarkable what he accomplished last year with reading. No secrets by spelling words now LOL

    Guys I jogged! Ahoy, I jog I'm a jogger I'm jogging (insert What About Bob reference here). Audible has released some free workout playlists for members, and one is a walk to run one-mile series. I did the first easy one last week, and playlists two and three are indoor workouts, so I skipped to four tonight. I've been doing 30 minute brisk walks a few times per week for a while, but holy cow Batman. This workout had me alternating 1-minute jogs with a few minute walk breaks in between for the first half, then alternating 30-second jog/walks for the second half. I bet I jogged a total of 8 minutes or so, which is a lot for me! Super sweaty with major tomato face at the end, but I did it! Was very proud of myself and had to share with my tribe :blush:

    Guys I jogged! Ahoy, I jog I'm a jogger I'm jogging (insert What About Bob reference here). Audible has released some free workout playlists for members, and one is a walk to run one-mile series. I did the first easy one last week, and playlists two and three are indoor workouts, so I skipped to four tonight.

    Hi everyone, I have hundreds of posts to read and no time to do it now, but the end of August has served as a wakeup call for me. I made no progress toward my fitness goals in August. I'm still trying to find a rhythm with my new job, but it's now been 6 weeks and it's time for me to get with the program again!

    No more excuses! It's a new month (and a month in which I'm going to turn 44!) and it's time to get serious about moving in the right direction.

    Goals for Saturday, 9/1:

    1. Log all food eaten and stay under goal.
    2. Drink at least 8 cups of water before leaving for work at 3 pm.
    3. Yoga routine.
    4. Read Don Quixote for an hour before work.
    5. Make a food plan through Tuesday.
