We’re in our RV at the county park where we spent the 4th of July week last year. It is overcast & looks like possible rain. The dog is happy, DH is doing okay & I am pleased to be away from the war zone at home. I don’t have internet service beyond my phone so can’t repond to posts as I would at home. 🌸🌹🌺5

Goals for June:
-do 30 min core/knee set at least twice per week - 100%
-do 30 min upper body set at least twice per week - 100%
-walk outside at least once per week - 50%
-move 10 minutes at a time, twice a day (stretching, yoga, cleaning, walking all count as movement) - 80%
-meditate in 10 minute blocks once per day - close to 0%!
My new goals for July:
-the same as above, except for meditation. I've given up, for the moment, on intentional meditation.
-go back to basics regarding non-nutrient-dense foods (eg. junk food, processed food, "treats") and keep them out of the house. if I want a "treat", I will have to plan it and go and get it the day I want it. I was doing fine for awhile with having these things in the house, but things have changed a bit, so I need to switch it up.
-treadmill, twice per week, 10 minutes at a time, until I can do the whole 10 minutes without stopping! Then I'll push up to 15 minutes at a time.
-yoga video twice per week, minimum 10 minutes at a time.
After a 7.5 lb weight gain (over the months of March-May) I am once again on the decline (lost 2 lbs of that 7.5).
It's taken me months to get some semblance of balance again. Starting daily exercise in January sorta knocked me off balance with food a bit. But I think I'm finally getting it together and it feels good. I wasn't beating myself up about it, because I knew how difficult it was to start and maintain an exercise program.. but at the same time it was giving me a little anxiety. I'm relieved!
Thanks for helping me stay motivated, ladies!

I won’t use mothballs for that very reason. I spray around my campsite with clove oil diluted in water. So far no snakes or ants!

Spent the day fixing the network connection at the visitor center. Felt like I was back at work! Did get it working though. Park superintendent was smiling ear to ear watching me hack the system to fix it. Sad thing is that IT department for park system did not have passwords or access. At least I got it fixed.
I also got a request to teach an online computer security class. Told them I was interested and where I am. We will see.

Did Jenny Ford’s Hi-Lo Cardio and abs DVD. The plan for tomorrow is to go to the water class then I’ll stop by WalMart on the way home.
I got a friend request again from a cjfields with the message “hi again beautiful”. Really? Doesn’t the fact that I declined you once before say something? Oh well…some people….
M – I was just about to ask Allie if a program couldn’t be used? I see you beat me to it!
KJ – where are you going on the field trip? When the kids were little and I took them to the pool, I always put brightly colored bathing suits on them for the exact same reason – so I could find them
Allie – if your system isn’t automated, suggest to your boss that he purchase a package that can be used. You can pitch it from the standpoint that it would be more efficient, in the end he’d come out ahead. The mathematical chances with a computer doing it are much less than if a human did it. Initially, there is the cost of inputting the data. But once that is done he’d realize a profit. Win Win. Plus…if ever he had to hire another person, it would be so much easier for that new person to just update the information and the computer would tell the amount owed. So training a new person would be that much less. Your boss won’t care how it’ll make your job easier. He’ll want to know “what is this going to do for ME”
Aldi had cherries on sale for $1.87/pound. WalMart was something like over $3 a pound. So last night I pitted some and just finished pitting some more. Now I have one bag for the freezer. Made some more brownies for Vince. Last time I made them I accidentally only put 2 eggs in the batter and they came out real hard. The recipe actually calls for 3 eggs so that is what I used today. Guess we’ll see how these turn out. Just finished making him mashed potatoes to have later in the week. I’m good for making things ahead of time then just reheating. Update: the brownies look good, now letting them cool and I’ll try cutting them later and see how they are. Update Update: they came out quite good
Annie in DE – Welcome! This is a great group. I don’t know how to accurately describe the differences between a group and a forum, but you’ll find lots of wonderful ladies in this group. Keep coming back. Oh, BTW, what part of DE are you in?
Suebdew – happy birthday
Deb in So. Cal – welcome!
Barbara – how wonderful, your weight and that you got a Wii
Pip – did you get your hair cut? It looks really nice. Did Kirby?
We just went to go see “secret Life of Pets 2”. This one kid screamed and screamed and screamed the entire time from about ¾ of the movie to the end. The mother didn’t take him out. How selfish can someone get. Not the boy, but the mother.
Katla – enjoy! We’ll be thinking of you
Debbie VA – how in the world can you be broken? If you think you’re “broken”, let us fix it for you. We care.
