Positive thought: My mom and I are getting along better than we have in forever. She is much nicer these days.
I think I may be feeling better, I ate Mexican last night and it didn't kill me. My stomach is still grumbling a bit, but not like it was, and I feel stronger after eating. My weight loss has also slowed over the last few days to a more reasonable 0.2# in 2 days. I'm just hoping that when I get hydrated the weight doesn't pack back on. Even if it does, it's ok because I'm tired of being tired and too weak to do things I like.
Now for my funny story of the day... The kids at church were making Mother's Day crafts Wednesday evening, and the teens decided to join them. Painted Mother's Day flower pots was the craft. I come downstairs and look in and someone said "You'll never forget this Mother's Day gift". My daughter proceeds to tell me that she was going to write Mother, but she instead wrote Mom. No big deal, but she didn't pay attention to what she had done. She told me she started to put an "e' in then realized an "e" doesn't go there so she did the "ther" still not realizing what she had done. My daughter is a 16 year old honors student who was designated "gifted" way back in grade school. I am one proud Momther. She told me she went ahead and put the date on it so I'd know she was 16 when she did it. The child has no shame, but at least she can laugh at herself.

I have been reading the posts (or skimming) whilst away as have wanted to keep up with what's going on with everyone! But I haven't posted as I'm supposed to be having a break (and am getting told off when I spend too much time on my phone...). Back posting in a few days!
P.s. congratulations on the interview @Snowflake1968 !
Have fun on your holiday! I figured that was where you were ... we miss seeing you on here! Anxious to see how your trip was.3 -

I guess I should make goals. I'm going to keep them easily attainable though.
JFT, 5-10-19
1. No candy tonight
2. Wash the sandwich containers in the sink
3. Bag the dirty clothes for tomorrow
4. Make the skillet meal that's in the freezer
5. Hang out with Matt
6. Drink 4 water bottles/ cups of water
Okay. I think that's good.
We missed you also! And glad you are feeling a little better today. Making small goals are what we need to do when things are getting us down. Thats what I've been doing lately ... just small, attainable goals are important. Hugs.3 -

I had an amazing day yesterday and I have a lot to share, but Lauryn and Michaela are here waiting to go shopping so I have to run. I will catch up with everyone's post and tell you all about my day later on.

So today ive had an okay day. Managing my emotions a bit better, holding my tongue a bit too to stop me flying off the handle.
I havent posted goals in ages.
And i didnt intend to, but today i logged.
Its my first baby step to starting again.
I dont think im gonna post goals still. I think for now its best i just do what i can in the day, and let you know what i managed rather than feeling like ive failed when i cant achieve what i planned. Does that make sense?
I did make a list last night of all the cleaning i had to do. A very detailed list so i knew EXACTLY what i had to do. And catergorized into rooms. I got music on and got cracking.
I blitzed the lounge and it looked great. Until the kids got home but i dont feel disheartened because i DID still achieve it. I would have got more done but we went out and got lots of new curtains and bits for the house.
Kids are away until tomorrow night now.
So thats a positive in that i can have a bit of a rest and get more stuff done.

Cschmitz110515 - That restaurant that specializes in Local is a great idea.
Nlmackey98 - Love the taco reference! That will be a Mother’s Day craft you’ll have forever. I have one from my daughter in Grade 2, it was the one where they have to say what they think about each letter in Mother. Her O says “other mothers aren’t as special to me”. I had that one hanging for years after she was an adult.
Lafayettenana- hope you have a speedy recovery.
Clicketykeys - what kind of storm kept the kids after school?
Hegoddard0928 - I hope Matt gets better soon. I understand how your depression is kicking you right now, and hope you are able to fight it back quickly.
AJB1014 - it’s hard when you have so many that love you and you love. Makes for hard decisions some days, maybe his Mother will enjoy having one on one time with him. I know I appreciate it when I get with my girls now because it is so rare.
Bex953172 - happy to see you posting, one step at a time and you’ll get there.
Well I said I had an amazing day yesterday. I spent over 2 hours shopping with the Maid of Honor and one Bridesmaid for supplies for the bachelorette party. We came back to the house and I made supper, Lauryn then arrived and we started crafting. Lauryn and the one bridesmaid left around midnight and the maid of honor and I worked until 4am! We managed to get a lot accomplished, but have way more to finish. She is probably coming out next Thursday as well. Her original plan was to spend the day today too, but she is a bridesmaid in a wedding this weekend and had duties for it today.
I took the time out from crafting last night to go to my swim lesson. I love my new instructor, he pushes me out of my comfort zone and gives me the confidence I need to do it. For those of you that followed along last year with all of my frustration with breathing, I GOT IT, I was so proud of myself last night. I swam back and forth and back and forth for about 40 minutes and only stood up once in the middle of a lap! Then we went into the deep end. I had faith that I could swim from deep end out, but not shallow end in. I did it twice, once he held his finger on my back to show me I could do it, second he swam beside me! If Rodger didn’t have to work and we hadn’t had a houseful he would have appreciated my energy waking him up when I got home!
Lauryn and Michaela picked me up bright and early this morning to go shopping and we got home at lunchtime. My eating today has been like a teenagers! I had coffee for breakfast, KD for lunch and am eating frozen pizza for supper right now. I know my calories will be over today because I’m too tired to work it off, but I had 500 calories in the green yesterday when I closed my diary so I think I’m fine.
I am going to design a couple of gifts for Lauryn tonight for Mother’s Day for the kids to give her. She said they are struggling money wise right now and she is sure Ryan has nothing planned.4 -

My eating has been out of control this evening. I was really ticked at myself, but then I looked back over my diary. I’ve felt poorly since the beginning of the month. There were only 2 days since May 1st when I ate over 700 calories. Im going to give myself a break and not fret over a few extra calories. Im actually hungry. I guess when my appetite comes back it doesn’t mess around. Guess my weight will be up a little tomorrow and that’s ok.3

Morning all, hope everyone had a good end to the work week. I ended up staying up quite late on the phone to my boyfriend last night and was tempted to snack but made a hot drink instead. V proud of myself as I was frustrated for various reasons, which I’ve noticed is a big trigger emotion for me, but I held firm. A later than usual exercise class for me today, but so grateful to my amazing mum for coming to take the kids so I could get my workout in. Off to shower, eat lunch and then join them now...

Scale goalsEnd of 2017: 174.6
End of 2018: 189.2
January 2019: 186.0
February 2019: 187.0
Today: 190.4
Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut1. Purchases: Go to Mac store and see if they can retrieve the files off the iMac. Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for Design for How People Learn (Julie Dirksen), On Writing (Stephen King), Dying for a Paycheck (Robin Hardman), The Prince (tr. Tim Parks, Russell Price, or Robert Adams), The Secret Adversary (Christie). Add lamp and wobble board to grocery list.
2. E2: What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options. Create vocabulary lists for each unit that come from the texts used: Animal Farm, Julius Caesar, Wes Moore, I Am Malala. 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. Need practice with the difference between transitions and overlapping (at end of paragraph - "another issue is Y" vs "there are other issues besides X"). Quit using "in conclusion" and "I believe" and other writing-about-my-writing phrases. Confusion between direct/indirect objects and prepositional phrases. Use the UDHR and the Declaration of Independence to study paraphrasing; use that to front-load Machiavelli and how to deal with challenging texts. Confusion between everyday / every day and similar constructions.
3. E1: Need practice with quoting & paraphrasing sources, identifying claims that would need support, use of last names for reference, and capitalization practice (common/proper nouns, titles). Difficulty using possessive nouns in their own writing. Honors: practice subject/object pronouns (my friend and I / my friend and me). Poetry: Revise "Songs are Poetry" handouts.
4. Curriculum Development: Writing mini-unit. Review scholarly research on 5PE. (I think I can have this as an intro to the research unit so that they also get exposure to how quotes are integrated and cited.) Parallel structure; use of emotional language, specific detail. Use "Write About a Pebble" lesson from Atwell. How long should each unit take? Do research on characteristics: curiosity, persistence, resilience, creativity, responsibility, optimism, courage, integrity, authenticity, leadership, self-awareness, humility, compassion - others? Include grammarly check on essays! Review assessments. What is the purpose for each unit? What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options.
5. Professional Development: Write blog post weekly. Comment on 3 posts each week -Tu Th Sun? Check with PSC. Talk with Z about articles and/or conference proposals.
6. Medical: Dentist. Onco. PCP. Call to set up checkups with Dass (October). GET MAGAZINES FOR COLLAGES FROM DOCTORS.
7. Theater: Audition for Mamma Mia??? House Mgr next Friday.
8. House: Mineral oil on tile spots. Check with D about ceiling and taking items to the dump.
9. Fun: Open beading on Thursdays. Coloring at library on Tuesday.
WFTY: Climbing.
Positive thought: Caught up with my fitness plan by doing my moderate run AND lifting yesterday. Go me!3 -
Oooo. It is supposed to POUR all day tomorrow. Maybe I should send the husband for groceries while I go to the Y today...
@Snowflake1968 - WTG on the breathing!
@nlmackey98 - I'm glad to hear you're feeling better than you had been. Hopefully the appetite will ease up
@AJB1014 - It's hard when there's a parent's holiday and there's multiple sets of parents ;D We're trying to juggle plans for tomorrow too.
Update: Husband said yes! The only downside is that means I get the older car without working AC and the drive back after working out is going to be even less pleasant. Oh well - if that's as bad as it gets, this will be a lovely weekend!4 -
Good morning!
@Bex953172 big hugs to you! It's nice to see you 😊💖
@lafayettenana I hope you recover very quickly!
@Snowflake1968 that is AWESOME about the breathing at your swim lesson, you should be so proud!!

I have the kids today while Lauryn is at work. I will finish her gifts and wrap them and have Jonah make a card for her. Michaela made one last weekend so I will give her an envelope to decorate today.
Today marks the 10th anniversary of me being smoke free. When I started that journey I swore I would never have another cigarette and that I wouldn’t gain weight when I did it. I didn’t gain the weight until three years later but I’m sure by my 11th anniversary I will be down. I have never had another cigarette.
Rodger woke me up early this morning and now has gone back for a nap himself. I may curl up on the couch, I still feel tired.
Have a great day everyone.4 -
@sunshinlineeze - I love your grocery note. Stick to the list! Wouldn’t we all save money and calories if we did that.
@Faebert - it sounds like you have a nice day planned.
@clicketykeys - it’s so nice when husbands help us out isn’t it?
@aubyshortcake - I think it’s important to keep posting goals and checking in, even when we don’t reach our goals, it keeps them in our mind then. After a year of doing basically the same goals everyday, I know what they are without thinking about it.
@MLHC1 - I hope you feel better fast and good luck on your exam.

2. Wash the sandwich containers in the sink Ended up doing all of the dishes in the sink...and then made dinner so there are a few more in there that I have to clean
3. Bag the dirty clothes for tomorrow Most of them. Got the rest in today and boy was it stuffed! Had trouble closing the bag!
4. Make the skillet meal that's in the freezer Very tasty but went right through Matt. *sigh*
5. Hang out with Matt We both just hang out on the couch
6. Drink 4 water bottles/ cups of water WAAAY more. Probably closer to 7 or 8. And each refill of the bottle was 24oz. I was in the bathroom A LOT.
Had a decent night last night. Matt woke me up with coffee this morning. He snuck out of bed and woke me up with a freshly made cup. He makes it really well. Lol. And then we cuddled on the couch for like an hour and a half watching baseball. I kinda was in and out of dozing. It was really nice. So I'm thinking today will be a good day.

Reigned in my people pleasing yesterday. Told mom sorry, but I cant do the game on such short notice but we will still have our sleepover. She of course is fine with that and totally understands. DH appologized for his attitude yesterday morning. Realizing more every day i cant control a situation only my reaction to it.
Glad to hear that your mom is understanding about it! Are you going to... the greenhouse, I think?1 -
So today, i will be in the green
Im starting to do normal things again, its a start, just need to keep building momentum.
The lounge got tidied again, as did the dining room.
So all thats left is to tackle the kitchen and then hopefully i can keep on top of it.
Think the only reason ill be in the green was the 2.5hrs of walking i did when we were shopping (in heels!) And then an hr of cleaning.
So baby steps!7
