    Hi everyone! Gosh I've missed you! It's been over a week since I had hip surgery and I have been trying to log on but by the time I do, I'm so tired, my eyes close. I finally just read through about 300 posts between last night and today. Holy crow! Lots happening!

    I have taken notes but don't have time tonight to write you individually. I will hop on her tomorrow morning now that I'm caught up and touch base with you more. Thank you for all the good wishes! Surgery went well and now it's a waiting game to see if it worked. I fell down the day of surgery when I got home...the walker flipped out from under me and down I crashed on my bad leg. So I'm hoping i didn't undo what he fixed!

    Hi Everyone! Still receiving family and friends... Tying up loose ends, the financial part of the arrangements for our brother. The funeral will be Thursday beginning at 12:30 for viewing and service begins at 1:00p.m. Repass following.
    The workouts have helped keep my stress level under control. I will be relieved when this is over. ANYWAY....
    JFT
    WALK
    LAUNDRY
    FUNERAL HOME
    ???I'LL FILL IN THE REST TONIGHT

    Didn't even get to log back in to complete my yesterday.... Can you say guest overload... Between manning the phone, answering the door, keeping up with dishes, and trips to handle business concerning my brother... I actually found myself frowning... LMBO can you believe it? Hahaha, me frowning. It's 1:07a.m. and I'm not asleep and my sister has volunteered me to go out with her today to BJ WAREHOUSE to get stuff for the Repass on Thursday.
    The positive in that is getting in my steps for today.
    I love you all and hope you all have a great day!!!
    I'm determined to make
    Lemonade out of all of these lemons

    Okay, goals for tomorrow 9-3-18

    1. Log all food! :)I even attempted to log the food I had at D's house which is usually where I give up. Lol
    2. Get up with Matt :DI did, stayed up for about 45 minutes and then went back to sleep for and hour and a half. Lol
    3. Coffee outside :)I drank the second cup at 10:20 out on my front stoop. It was nice but I got eaten alive by misquitos
    4. Work on budget :):)All done! And it wasn't even that difficult! AND I will be able to put money away and start paying off debts!
    5. Take out trash :(I totally forgot when I left for D's and then just couldn't be bothered. The DH is home this morning so I'll make him do it. Lol
    6. Cleaning :|A quick tidy but not really what I wanted to get done
    7. Gym :pEnded up going over D's and spending an hour with her in the pool. It was awesome!
    8. Dinner/Dishes :)The DH wasn't feeling well when he got home so I didnt make anything until 730ish. But I did make it and clean it up. I just have to rinse out the pot that I had soaking overnight.
    9. DH time :)We just hung out on the couch and went to bed early. It was nice.
    10. Tech off by 1015 :)Was in bed with the light off by 10:15. Lol. I'm not sure what time I fell asleep but probably right around then.
    11. Lights off by 11 :)See above!

    Had a really good day yesterday even though I didnt hit all of my goals. But that's okay, I still hit most of them. I went to bed early and slept pretty well. Woke up refreshed too. I actually woke up at 4:45 and almost decided to stay up but that's way too early. I laid back down and all of sudden the alarm was going off. You know when you close your eyes and then about 5 seconds later the alarm is going on an hour later? That's what that last hour felt like. Lol. I still popped out of bed and got right in the shower. It's now 6:45 and I'm still awake and chipper! Lol. That's pretty unusual for me.

    Today I am covering at a different branch and I'm a tad nervous about it. It is the branch that is about 2 miles away from Seaside Heights where the boardwalk is. This branch has a lot of the arcade and bar accounts so it will be very cash heavy today. I'm a little scared that I will screw something up. I know that I just have to take my time, use my calculator, and dont mix deposits but it's still kind of nerve-wracking. I won't be the only teller which is great! There will be two others and another CSR. The reason I am covering is that the branch manager and the other full-time teller are on vacation. Because of the holiday, they needed the three tellers. I know I am probably making it worse in my head then it actually will be but if all the praying sisters out there could send up one I'd appreciate it! Lol.

    D gave me a half a box of picture printer paper so I started working on the wedding photo album I've been meaning to put together for the last 4 years! (Did I mention that last night? I can't remember. Lol!)

    Okay onto goals, 9-4-18

    1. Log all food
    2. Prep lunches
    3. Leave note for Matt(garbage, cat food)
    4. Stay calm, cool and collected at work
    5. 815-5
    6. Dont over do it on coffee or junk food
    7. Bring a change of clothes
    8. D's house
    9. Eat sensibly! Only one serving!
    10. Home by 9
    11. Bed by 12

    Okay!

    Very busy long weekend. Market on Saturday; spent rest of day/evening with friends. Met granddaughter for lunch on west side of the state and spent several hours with her on the deck of the lodge overlooking the lake. Then met a couple of friends for a concert. Went to brother's house for the day on Monday for a picnic and get-together with his family and some friends we've known since childhood ... lots of fun ... got home really late. I think I did ok on meals but the scale will let me know tomorrow. Back on track today. Hope Y'all have a fun and successful day today! :p

    JFT - Tuesday

    1. Log all food for the day
    2. Drink at least 8 glasses of water

    I’m actually surprisingly bored. Lol. I’ve had a handful of customers, most of them with cash. But nothing that’s really above my level. I had one customer who had several cash transactions and he got kind of huffy that I was taking so long but I just ignored him and kept on going the same pace I was. I can only go so fast without making a mistake. I just did a drawer count after a whole bunch of cash ones and it came out perfect. I really hope I didn’t just jinx myself though. Lol. I would really love to be able to make it through today without a shortage! *knock on wood*



    So how is everyone else doing? It’s pretty quiet here today.



    @Bex953172 I hope that Saskia has an awesome first day tomorrow. Don’t cry either! I bet she’ll be excited! Is it full day or half? Here it can be either. The reason my mom out me in the local school and not the private one I was going to 1st grade was because it had a full day. Mom wanted me out of her hair for as long as possible! Lol



    @maryrobinson40 Is the funeral today? I’m sorry that I cant remember! I hope you are having a great day! Keep that chin up and your eyes to the sky!



    @PackerFanInGB I hope that you are doing well today! I’ve missed you so much! I hope you are felling good today and that your recovery is speedy.



    Oh! I heard from Toaljasa. She and her husband had some deaths in the family and had to go to a really rural area with no wifi or cell service. They should be home by the end of the week. I’m hoping that she comes back on shortly. Keep her and her family in your prayers.

    WELCOME BACK!!!! We missed you, and have been praying that your surgery went OK, and you are doing good. My, you do have a large family. There is bound to be some drama with that many people ..... I've learned everyone has drama, hard times, etc. Its how we choose to deal with it. So hoping you can close your sewing room, and sink yourself in something that you truly love.

    So sorry to hear about your fall though ... that had to be very painful.
    THis is the time to take care of Tracy!! We love you here, and so glad to see you back!

    @ABJ1014... It's total unconditional, no strings attatched LOVE for you Sis😀💜💜💜💜💜🌹

    Awww, Mary. Love you too, sis!!! I'm thinking of you lots lately. Keep turning those lemons into lemonade. You are a bright bright light!

    I like this thread! Ive been loosing 1lb a week since April, honestly mainly through diet. Just starting regular gym workouts. Today was self care Sunday, I did nothing, watched movie on Netflix, had a very long bath (fun fact epsom salt bath knocks 2lbs off the scale lol its very temporary but just for a moment you can kid yourself that it really is that easy... just lye back relax and the fat will melt away.... ah dreams!) ran (walked some) 5km yesterday and my hips kinda hurt today... tis normal... as I have not ran in... a long time... Park run is fab... def join: once a week you will meet ppl in your area who are also getting fit and healthy. Have to remember to check in here everyday! its a good little mental kick.

    Self care sunday. Love it! I've been meaning to try an epsom salt bath for several reasons lately - this is a nice added bonus I did not know about!!!

    *sigh* you know when you've been busy all day with other people and they say "ooooh your kids will sleep well tonight..." well I feel like ringing them at 11.15pm to tell them that one of them is vomiting everywhere..

    Marley's being sick I heard her in her room then start crying, she was covered top to toe. Straight in the shower, pyjamas in the BIN (yeah that bad) got her redressed in some clothes and put her on the sofa whilst I strip her bed but she threw up again. Luckily I caught her about to do it and got her over my lap to throw up on the floor (laminate) so I didn't have to wash her again. She's now back asleep, just had to put a wash on, disinfect her bed, disinfect her bed and disinfect the lounge floor.

    Fortunately (in a health wise view) I don't feel like eating snacks right now. I can't stand vomit.

    Just posting cause I'm bored really. Gonna stay awake for her to make sure she's okay!

    Oh my gosh, Bex! Hope you all feel better soon. Just want to say your writing style always gives me a laugh - the way you introduced that story was hilarious!

    JFT Tuesday

    - 8 glasses of water
    - Be in the green
    - Exercise? Maybe..
    - Walk dog x3
    - Write down morning routine
    - Label Saskia Uniform and iron tomorrows outfit!
    - Stop eating the cake my MIL brought to us! I don't know how many calories are in it!!!


    Dogs annoying me atm. With his breed being mostly whippet he likes to run, he's so fast, but the last 3 days he's just messed around sniffing the whole field. Ideally I want him to run and burn energy because it stops him being a pain in the house. He likes being chased so I normally do that which burns decent calories for me! But he's having non of it. He comes to me when I'm about a foot away from him but other than that he doesn't listen. I took his ball today, not interested. Didn't even sniff it.

    Ah yes, my dog usually drives me nuts like this a few times a month!!! Selective hearing to the max! I'll grab a box, anything I can find, crumple up a bunch of newspaper, pile in all her toys, and then sprinkle some kibble into the box so she has to sniff around everything to find it. Keeps her busy for maybe 5 minutes at a time but I'll just keep adding in bits to keep the game up. After 15-20 minutes she's usually pooped!

    He's not motivated by treats or play! He just likes running. He's so hard to train! I wish he was a bit more of a normal dog lol that fetched balls and begged for treats! He's quite a character but also very sneaky. I dislike his sneaky side LOL

    But it's worth a try!

    JFT - Monday Sept 3
    2L of Water - :/ I can't remember but I don't think I made it.
    Calories in Green by 150 - :/ In red by 47, but I think I had more movement than I accounted for too.
    Outside 15 Minutes - :/ No, weather didn't cooperate when I finally had some free time to get out
    Only 1 Evening Snack - :) Finally one happy face!
    Walk if weather permits - :(
    Write in Journal - :(
    Finish craft room - :):):) Finally! I now have a room that I don't mind stepping in. I was getting stressed every time I looked in before. Now I have it tidy and organized. I should feel better about doing my yoga and pilates in there now.
    Laundry - :)

    JFT - Tuesday Sept 4
    2L of Water
    Calories in Green by 150
    Outside 15 Minutes
    Only 1 Evening Snack
    5 Fruits/Veggies
    Walk if weather permits
    Write in Journal
    Move every hour at work, reinstate 10 Somethings?
    Yoga or Pilates - NO EXCUSES

    I had some discouraging news this weekend. J is not going to be starting her business right away. She has been offered a position at the company that I used to work at that is too good for her to pass up. I am quite disappointed but happy for her. This will give her the funds that she needs to move forward later on.

    I received an email this morning that the Business Development guy is supposed to be up tomorrow and Friday. That will be good as long as he follows through.

    I have looked at my weight loss to date and feel that it's not as fast as I would like it to be. Then I think well maybe this time it will stick since it isn't as fast. I want to amp it up a little bit though and I need to come up with some plans to do that.

    The fruit/veggie challenge has been eye-opening to me. I don't eat enough on a regular basis. I also have to start looking closely at serving sizes of these. I am going to go to the produce place that opened up near me and stock up. I don't even have lots in the house.

    Fruits and Veggies
    Sept 1st - 0/5
    Sept 2nd - 3/5
    Sept 3rd - 4/5

    I'm adding more frozen veggies and frozen fruits - I always feel so bad because I dont eat the fresh produce fast enough and it goes bad. So far I really like the birdseye steamer bags! Unsweetened applesauce is another one I used to eat as a snack a lot that I should add back in!

    I am so incredibly fortunate. I could actually stop at this new produce place on my way home everyday if needed. I agree though, fresh produce is so hard to get used up, especially with just two of us in the house.

    1. Hang in there almost done!!! :D Haha still not done. Landlady giving us til Sunday. Forget I ever said anything negative about her telling us to clean up! I feel so bad about that! She's been really flexible since then and the apartment looks squeky clean and I was able to rest yesterday and know I can finish moving the last heavy tv when I don't feel like my bones are breaking!!!
    2. Be kind :)
    3. Eat food :)
    4. Log yesterday :)
    5. Log all food :)

    I dont think I posted yesterday? How wonderful would it be if 4 day work weeks and 3 day weekends were the norm - I feel like we all would be so much less stressed. I finally decompressed yesterday and it was so nice.

She's been really flexible since then and the apartment looks squeky clean and I was able to rest yesterday and know I can finish moving the last heavy tv when I don't feel like my bones are breaking!!!

    That's awesome that she has given you a longer time, hopefully she is not charging you extra for this.

    I had friends that work 4 10 hour days a week and have a 3 day weekend every weekend. I wish I had that. My son in law works 12's and he works 3 days one week and 4 the next. It works out to a 84 hour pay cheque. I would really love that one!

    This is what I get for not logging on a long weekend: 99 new posts on JFT! I'll catch up reading posts later.

    Sat. was middle brother's wedding & did not log food but did eat at least 3 wedding cupcakes (had to try the different flavors, you know). Decided on long holiday weekend to continue not logging food on MFP. Started logging again today, Tues. but chaotic at work since spent morning still in process of relocating desk/office and getting computer updated properly ~ why this is not done automatically is very frustrating to me. >:) So now I can finally post JFT...

    JFT T 9/4/18 ~ Rest day b/c thunderstorms before work + sad dog
    1) Move hourly / stairs breaks at work
    2) Meals & snacks prelogged / stick w/ plan / net calories green
    3) Unplug 9:00 / FLOSS / RETAINERS / bed & TV off 10:15

    Hey all, didn't really stick to my goals today. I'm so busy! I kept munching on the MILs cake, I didn't even cut a slice I just got a fork and ate from the cake. Gross I know. Anyway I've binned it now lol, just get rid of the damn thing!
    Gone into total Mum Mode getting everything sorted. Changed a few sizes on her uniform so everythings perfect. Downstairs has been cleaned hoovered and mopped! She's been bathed, hair washed dried and straightened.
    And I've got everything laid out down to the bobble and bow she's gonna have in her hair!
    I'm gonna grab a shower tonight and get all my makeup out of the car ready for morning!
    Don't think I could be more prepared! Glad she's having hot dinners and not pack lunches!

    Anyway last few bits to tidy upstairs and then it's time for bed for me!
    I've not had to get up for school for over 10 years now LOL, not long enough!

    I made it through today. Son is outside putting garbage in large can. He's been gone a while.
    I have 2 more rounds of drops to do and I am just quitting anything that did not get done.
    Wednesday-Garbage needs to go out to curb. Drink more water. Insert drops. Watch calories like a hawk. Set alarm for surgery 5 am. Get kid through school time so he is ahead for Thursday. There's leftover chicken so that's up for eating. It was a fairly good day! OOPS do not forget to go to session at church.

    @bex95123 I had a dog who didn't care for treat and wasn't motivated by normal stuff. He was a pain to train, but he was loving and loyal for more than 11 years. He never learned fancy stuff (like lay down, roll over, shake, or stay), and he didn't do well with strangers, but he stuck close to my family and me. Now that I think about it, sit and come were about the only two commands he ever figured out! ;-)
