    Thursday
    - 8 glasses of water 😊
    - exercise😊😊
    - Be in the green😊😊😊
    - tidy house😊😊
    - laundry....❌

    what a day! walked to school and jogged back, did the food shop (think I said all this before..)
    anyway I drove to pick up sask from school which I'm kind of glad I did!
    I was tired at that point.
    I was really losing my mojo and I asked my partner to start dinner which is unlike me. anyway he said "I will in 10 mins I'm just gonna sit down for a minute" and me knowing him well enough knew he wasn't going to do it lol
    So I got up and started it. meatballs and pasta for everyone and I had meatballs and ... guess 😂 salaaaaad.

    anyway so I tidied up and mopped because we're switching energy provider so they need to put new gas and electric meters in. and then did ANOTHER workout

    I did a new one today though! it was so much fun. every bit of me is sweating lol!

    here it is if you want to try it!

    @mytime6630 oooo I've never seen them before! they're huge! I can see why you want to dig them out to stop them rotting!

    how are you doing today? how are your goals coming along

    @PackerFanInGB you would have burned major calories last night! glad you had a good time!
    I remember when I worked at the gym and my friend offered me a free ticket to see Rihanna. and a personal trainer actually said "why don't you go to the gym instead, is your fitness not that important to you?" my reply was "I don't give a *kitten* it's. free! And it's rihanna"
    And I actually did about 2 hours of dancing and them walking to get back to the street where we were getting picked up so it was like a big up yours to the PT.

    water 6 to 8 glasses
    track food
    grocery shopping
    get a nap in before work tonight
    prepare lunches for the week. (basically prefrying ground chicken and make rice and freeze into single portions. All thats left is to cut up veggies and make a snack for work which only takes ten minutes.)

    tomorrow
    water
    track food
    rest from exercise.

    I recently went back to the gym and discovered squash courts behind the pool. Squash involves hitting a ball against the wall and running back and forth. Talk about feeling the burn :p

    I'm rubbish at squash, and tennis lol. badminton though I'm awesome at! I think it's because I can hit it dead hard without it going too far! And squash I just always miss the ball!

    Morning all!
    Hope everyone's good!
    So I'm not too sore today, maybe the protein shake helped but I don't know. The cool down on the video I did wasnt very long so I did it twice and some extra stretches.
    I forgot to mention that I did do the November Challenge yesterday, but it was more part of the video I did. Did like 30+ squats though. Killer.

    JFT Friday!
    - 8 glasses of water
    - Be in the green
    - Exercise
    - Tidy the house (again)
    - Put the damn laundry away!
    - clean out rabbit
    - November Challenge

    Today: 188.2

    Upcoming to-do:
    1. Develop 5PE mini-unit. Use after JC as a sponge; combine with challenge books. Maybe a comparison with another required text? Have students ask a parent or teacher what the most significant text they studied was, and then create a comparison between their challenge book and that text - which has more value and why? Possibly do the one-sheet as an assessment. Working on this with The Prince!

    6. Go to used bookstore and look for Beauty (McKinley), Design for How People Learn (Julie Dirksen), Dying for a Paycheck (Robin Hardman) and The Prince (tr. Tim Parks).
    7. Create poetry project using Those Winter Sundays, Sonnet 18, and Sonnet 30.
    8. Go to Mac store and see if they can retrieve the files off the iMac.
    9. Make plan for classroom observations; ask other teachers about projects or lessons they feel confident about.
    10. Create vocabulary lists for each unit that come from the texts used. Find a way to incorporate changing words from one part of speech to another. Students need to know how to review multiple sources and synthesize information in order to draw a conclusion.
    11. Design minibuttons with school logo, mascot, crest. Minibuttons that say THIS IS WHAT ANTIFASCISM LOOKS LIKE. White text on black bars on red background.

    Update: Went to the Walmart near the school where I teach. THEY HAD FROZEN SPINACH! So the next step is to stop by the ones near my house again. Maybe it was just a strange, long-running coincidence of some sort. I will get to the bottom of this!

    @mytime6630 - Still working on the spinach. Went grocery shopping last night, but there's a new Publix, so we went there instead of to Walmart. There's one on the way home from school and I'm going to stop there today. We'll see if it follows the same pattern... hahaha!

    Ha! Hopefully they don't just SAY they have it like Walmart, and then you get there and there's an empty spot with a tag where it should be again! You'll have to find a THIRD store and then a FOURTH, and eventually they will all put your picture up in their employee breakrooms to warn their staff to watch out for the "Angry Spinach Lady"... :mrgreen:

    Good luck!

    Well, see, Publix had it! There's this major road that has a lot of businesses on about a three-ish mile stretch, and there are like half a dozen grocery stores among them. Aldi has the best prices but limited selection, so we go there first, and then after that to Walmart, which has not quite as good prices but much better selection. Or at least it DID. Frozen spinach is a staple for me, and Aldi doesn't carry it at ALL, so when it went missing from the Walmart we usually go to at first I was like "no biggie, I still have some, I'm just getting a little low" so we didn't get it, and then the NEXT trip I was out, so when they didn't have it again, I really noticed. That's when we went to the OTHER Walmart (there's a Super and a Neighborhood within a mile of each other) and found out that they didn't have it either! So we made a fourth stop just so I could have my frozen spinach (my husband is wonderfully patient) and I decided I was going to figure things out.

    Thus began the Mystery of the Missing Spinach!

    JFT 11/16 TGIF!!!

    Sat. is the city's annual Holiday (Christmas) Parade. I am one of the volunteers for staging; I have been doing this since 1991! :mrgreen: We line up the floats and other units in order block by block before the parade. This parade has 5 stages, or about 90 units, and bands and giant balloons feed in from other side streets. Stagers meet at 7 a.m. to get our assignments, clip boards, signs, walkie talkies, etc. then we go out and direct people, walk, stand (& sometimes run) until the parade starts at 10 a.m.

    It's always a challenge to get people to their assigned spot when they know nothing about their unit or stage number. Sometimes the weather cooperates, sometimes it doesn't. This year is looking ok: lows around 27-28 and light snow overnight, only an inch or so. Not bad at all; rain is the worst, followed by wind. I always make sure my stage gets to the start in correct order, then wave at each unit & wish everyone a fun parade as they go off. Then it's walk back to our meeting spot at an inn for lunch with bloody Marys & beer chasers ~ it's tradition!

    This year I want to track how many steps I take during staging, so if I can remember, I'll write down my current step count on Fitbit at the start and finish. I'd like to use MapMyWalk but would probably drain my phone battery. I'm taking the day off from logging food / exercise, since it would be a total guess, and I just don't want to bother!

    The Mystery of the Missing Spinach has had me giggling for days! I've been following it closely, you know... Reading this latest chapter has me chuckling again! Having to go to more than one store to look for my staples irritates the heck out of me, so I felt your pain! I do the same thing with Aldi's and Woodman's. Get what I can at Aldi's and pick up the rest at Woodman's. If I can't find what I want at those two stores and I have to add a third? Oh my gosh, look out...Tornado Tracie's coming to town...

    Oh....and no pressure, but now I'm watching to see when you WRITE A DOGGONE POST! :mrgreen:

    Have a GREAT day! xoxo

    @cschmitz110515 Have fun at the parade tomorrow! I've never been to it. I mean to every year and then never get my butt moving in time. So, this year I am going to try, try again! I was offered VIP tickets to sit in the bleachers but thought someone with little ones should use them. I'll have to look it up to see the route so I have some idea of where to go watch! :smile:

    @Bex953172 You sure are kicking some butt! YOU GO GIRL!

I used to go with the boys to deer camp and hunted with them, but now I stay behind. It was always such an exciting time of year....all the bright orange suits hanging outside "airing out", etc. I loved sitting at camp at night, joking and teasing, having a few beers. It was a blast!! Now I'm older and have found I love staying home and being warm even more! HAHAHA! Well, I'm not alone, but it feels like it since I can pretty much do whatever I want including watching what I want on TV and eating whatever I want for dinner! I simply cannot wait to leave work today and start the weekend!

    @mytime6630 - Still working on the spinach. Went grocery shopping last night, but there's a new Publix, so we went there instead of to Walmart. There's one on the way home from school and I'm going to stop there today. We'll see if it follows the same pattern... hahaha!

    Ha! Hopefully they don't just SAY they have it like Walmart, and then you get there and there's an empty spot with a tag where it should be again! You'll have to find a THIRD store and then a FOURTH, and eventually they will all put your picture up in their employee breakrooms to warn their staff to watch out for the "Angry Spinach Lady"... :mrgreen:

    Good luck!

    Well, see, Publix had it! There's this major road that has a lot of businesses on about a three-ish mile stretch, and there are like half a dozen grocery stores among them. Aldi has the best prices but limited selection, so we go there first, and then after that to Walmart, which has not quite as good prices but much better selection. Or at least it DID. Frozen spinach is a staple for me, and Aldi doesn't carry it at ALL, so when it went missing from the Walmart we usually go to at first I was like "no biggie, I still have some, I'm just getting a little low" so we didn't get it, and then the NEXT trip I was out, so when they didn't have it again, I really noticed. That's when we went to the OTHER Walmart (there's a Super and a Neighborhood within a mile of each other) and found out that they didn't have it either! So we made a fourth stop just so I could have my frozen spinach (my husband is wonderfully patient) and I decided I was going to figure things out.

    Thus began the Mystery of the Missing Spinach!


    The Mystery of the Missing Spinach has had me giggling for days! I've been following it closely, you know... Reading this latest chapter has me chuckling again! Having to go to more than one store to look for my staples irritates the heck out of me, so I felt your pain! I do the same thing with Aldi's and Woodman's. Get what I can at Aldi's and pick up the rest at Woodman's. If I can't find what I want at those two stores and I have to add a third? Oh my gosh, look out...Tornado Tracie's coming to town...

    Oh....and no pressure, but now I'm watching to see when you WRITE A DOGGONE POST! :mrgreen:

    Have a GREAT day! xoxo

    *laugh* Thank you so much! Who knows, maybe a little pressure would get me to write! But I get home and I have to work on my essays and such for my masters class and I just don't want to do MORE writing :P

    EDIT.
    18 mins in to my 35 minute video Casey started screaming at the top of her lungs. She's not settled unless she's sat with me..
    So now I've just got to sit until she falls asleep..
    So a little naffed at that but she can't help it I guess. But now I'm too tired to do the plank and I'll probably only get 6 waters in now.

    But overall still a good day!
