      Fri 19: 149.4 🤓 I was wondering if this uptick is connected to the fact that I have started interval walking/jogging to get my steps in. I did a little research, and sure enough, there it was, in black and white. When you start jogging, the muscles hold on to fluid for muscle repair. Can be several lbs, and it sorts itself out when the body acclimatises, so I'm sticking with it until it settles down.
      😂 Just when you think you have it all sorted, one little change throws it up in the air again. I'm guessing that this is temporary.

      THURSDAY:
      - Homeschool (lots of meetings today)🟢
      - Log food / stay green🔴
      - Exercise (weights & cardio)🔴
      - Landscaping🟢
      - Pick up dining room and porch🟢

      I did so much work outside yesterday. We are taking down an old fence and making room for a new one. Yesterday I worked on taking out a couple of fence posts, moving a wood pile 🥵 and clearing space for the new fence. It was in the upper 80s and humid, but I tend to do better in the heat. My husband was thrilled when he got home because he was dreading moving the wood pile.

      JFT FRIDAY:
      -LAST DAY OF SCHOOL - This morning I woke up to cards from my kids, thanking me for being “the best homeschool teacher”. 💕
      - End of year meetings and one teacher visit
      - Out of space on Gmail. Need to start making room
      - Exercise
      - Make pulled pork and coleslaw

      Be well! 💕

      - JFT :smiley:
      - pick up meds :smiley:There were a lot of them this time. But hopefully, a couple of them we won't have to pick up again for a good long while. Thank the Lord for prescription coverage.
      - actually cook dinner NO TAKE OUT!!! :smiley:Some slight confusion but I made baked chicken and it was yummy
      - Dishwasher :smiley:
      - Gather clothes for laundry :smiley:It's amazing how much room I have in my bedroom when all the clothes are off the floor. Lol
      - Make shopping list :smiley:Done. Lol.
      - Finish lessons in creating writing unit :smiley:Did it on and off throughout the day, but got it all done

      Had a good, quiet but productive day. Got everything done. Once I finally went and got the meds I was in the groove and got it all done while Matt was playing video games with his friend. It kept him out of my hair. Lol. Definitely a plus. Today is going to be a day of running around but I got up early and am already at the laundromat. I knew that I should have worn shorts but I thought since it was only like 65 degrees out it wouldn't be too bad. Boy was I wrong! I'm very very hot sitting here. Lol. I think after I post this I'm going to go sit outside in the chairs that the awesome owner put out for people. And the owner just opened the front and back door so there's a nice cross breeze.

      Okay, onto some goals!

      JFT, 6/19/20

      - Aldi
      - Walmart
      - Laundry :smiley:
      - Grilled chicken salads for dinner

      JFT Thursday

      - Weigh :smiley: Down a bit, yea!
      - Work :smiley:

      Have an awesome day! You've got this!

      Another good day. This one was tough though. I was literally hungry all day. It was legitimate hunger so I tries to find good alternatives to junk. Truth is in the evening I really wanted a candy bar, but the fact that I had "No cookies/candy" on my goals stopped me from doing it. I'm glad I stuck to my plan, it feels really good to be in control.

      Today, I have nothing to do but laundry. Why is there always soooo much laundry? I guess we are blessed with abundance.

      Hubby and I decided we would do an old style camping weekend in July with our girls and their friends... Tents and no electric, but we will go white water rafting and the park has some natural water slides. I doubt we will take bikes (might rent), because I'm not sure how to transport 6 bikes. We may have to take 2 vehicles as is to get all the people and all of the stuff there. I'm going to set up the trip today. I'm super excited! I love WW rafting and haven't been since college.

      JFT Friday
      - Sleep in
      - Check in on MFP
      - Put away clean laundry, sort and wash dirty laundry
      - 30 -90 minutes of exercise (not sure about the weather)
      - Log everything
      - Stay green
      - No cookies/candy
      - No alcohol


      Y'all deserve health and happiness, go out there and get it!

      - Focus on veggies.
      - Exercise
      - Put away sewing supplies and beads/crafting boxes that have been sitting out over the week. This will lead to cleaning out the game closet yet again. Find 5 things to give away.
      - Drop off donations
      - Drop off cloth that needs to be recycled
      - Clear off the coffee table

      I think the clutter in the house is effecting me mentally and emotionally. At the beginning of the year I was able to focus on getting rid of the excess around me. I want to get back to that. I am, starting today!

      Thursday: everything logged! And that was a challenge, because my neighbour invited me over for a socially-distanced dinner and she loves to entertain. There were 4 courses to the dinner (fruit, lettuce salad, chicken with scalloped potatoes, dessert) so it took a bit to recall all the different things I'd eaten and get them into the diary. But I said I would do it, so I did it.

      Friday: log everything!

      1L of Water
      Log all Food
      Gratitude Journal

      I have gone back and read everyone's posts, but didn't make notes as I'm at work and it's shaping up to be a busy day.

      I am going to visit my cousin in the hospital this evening, she had skin cancer removed last Wednesday from her nose and has a 5 hour reconstruction surgery today to start the process of getting her nose repaired. She will need several more surgeries before it's completed.

      We finally received the quote yesterday to have the trailer levelled and it's gong to be $1650 by the time the taxes are added in. It desperately needs done and we can't put new flooring or anything down until it is.

      Well I should go and get to work, everyone have a great day!

      Scale goals
      End of 2017: 174.6
      End of 2018: 189.2
      End of 2019: 196.4
      End of January: 194.6
      End of February: 196.2
      End of March: 193.8
      End of April: 192.6
      End of May: 191.8
      Today: 192.4

      Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut
      1. Purchases: Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for On Writing (Stephen King), Dying for a Paycheck (Robin Hardman), The Prince (tr. Tim Parks, Russell Price, or Robert Adams), The Secret Adversary (Christie).
      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. Schedule assessments for Fall 2019; plan out return times. Write 1 reflection weekly; type one in Classroom by Weds. Copy-paste to discussion board for comments due Friday. Homework: Online journal Mon due Tue; Reflection Tue due Wed; C&P journal in class Wed; Comments Thu due Fri. Bonus if you are the first response; further bonus if you respond to comments on your post. Grammar practice Mon & Wed; quiz Fri.
      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. NOTE: ATTENDED PRE FLEX DAY.
      6. Medical: Dentist call to schedule cleaning. PCP July 15 10:30. ObG schedule for October. PCP - allergy shots? left toe joints. Sleep center 778 3316.
      7. Theater: 1984.
      8. House: Crawl space repairs. After that - siding? Or perhaps bathroom floor.
      9. Fun: Open beading on Thursdays. Coloring at library on Tuesday. Put jewelry away. Edney Hack Nights alt Weds. ASL? Spanish/Portuguese practice? Practice piano. ROL Secret Adversary. Buy bike rack for car.
      10. Volunteering ideas: Theater. Library. Animal shelter. Community Kitchen. Emerge Georgia training.
      11. Family: Google Hangout. Dinners?
      12. Other: Practice hair braiding with D. Check on appts for drs. Remind D to ask his dad about the table and check with home repair contractors. START BLOGGING AGAIN. 3 posts/week? Create test for MLA format. Create test for infographics and visual information. Therapy exercises: lunges, push-ups, ankle lifts, box jumps, plank. Remember that M does not like surprises! Check dates of classes and update semester plan. She Should Run vision statement. Update standards on board. When to change bulletin board?

      WFTY: Progress. Longest run ever today. I am zonked.

        JFT Friday
        - Sleep in :smiley:
        - Check in on MFP :smiley:
        - Put away clean laundry, sort and wash dirty laundry :smiley: Made a dent!
        - 30 -90 minutes of exercise (not sure about the weather) :smiley: Or 2.5 hours
        - Log everything :smiley:
        - Stay green :smiley:
        - No cookies/candy :(
        - No alcohol :(


        Y'all deserve health and happiness, go out there and get it!

        Okay I had 2 beers and 4 marshmallows, but I burned over 1000 calories today, and everything was in moderation so I'm okay with that.

        I got up and started the laundry then went for an hour hilly hike which kind of kicked my *kitten*. It was a beautiful day and I hated to waste it so I asked hubby if he'd like to hop on the bikes and do 20 easy miles. We stopped at a restaurant on the trail for dinner where I had pulled pork and 2 beers. We came home and decided to build a fire and I roasted a few marshmallows. Pretty much an active date day. Now it is 2 am and I am wide awake... ugh.

        We also planned 2 camping trips for July. One in PA where we'll go white water rafting and one at a lake in OH with friends. Both are only 3 day trips, perfect time span for tent camping. I get grumpy sleeping on the ground much longer than that.

        Saturday, I'll finish the laundry and get my gray covered (Hair appt). I may swing by a nail salon for a fresh coat of paint. I will likely exercise, but not sure what I'll do.

        JFT Saturday
        - Sleep in

        Last night I woke up after sleeping ~hour and was awake for awhile (hot here). Ended up downstairs and in a mini binge of chocolate and more. Today I mostly stuck to plan, but right before bed turned my calories red by grabbing more chocolate. Guess I need to keep it out of my house. Usually chocolate is not a big pull for me but something’s changed. And the heat has really messed up my sleep patterns—I’m wide awake near midnight when usually I’m a pumpkin by 10pm.

        Hope you all have a great weekend!

        @ZizzyBumble -I’m so sorry your mom has declined. I’m glad she’s in a place to get the care she needs. Sending prayers of strength to you and peace to your mom and family.💕

        FRIDAY:
        -LAST DAY OF SCHOOL - 🟢
        - End of year meetings 🟢
        - Make space on Gmail. 🟢
        - Exercise (weights)🟢
        - Make pulled pork and coleslaw🟢

        I ate TERRIBLY yesterday. Today officially starts summer and for the next couple of months I really don’t have much to do outside of taking care of the kids and house. That means that I have to start focusing more on losing again. I’ve basically been stalled since the beginning of the year. I want to lose about 10 more pounds. I’d love to get that done by September.

        JFT SATURDAY/SUNDAY:
        - Landscaping
        - Start sorting paperwork from school
        - Continue clearing out Gmail
        - Computer work: Taxes, Budget, Product Reviews, Review resume

        Be well! 💕

        - Aldi :smiley:
        - Walmart :disappointed:
        - Laundry :smiley:
        - Grilled chicken salads for dinner :smiley:They were really really good. Matt said grilled is his new favorite way to eat chicken. Lol. So I guess I'll be doing it more. That's fine with me!
        - bring up trash can :smiley:
        - clean bedroom :disappointed:
        - wipe down kitchen counters :disappointed:

        Nothing really to report. I have been working on getting an outline ready for a rewrite of a story. I'm going to start writing in July and try to get at least 50k of it done next month.

        Matt's job had to stop taking in bike repairs. His store accepted 35 of them in the 2 days he was off. So he has something like 50 to work on. It's going to take weeks to do it. He still has to finish all the repairs he didn't get to before the store closed in March. But he can't get to those until at least Thursday He's going to have a whole lot of scheduled hours and maybe some overtime. That will be really helpful.

        Um...I think that's it. I'm not feeling so well so I'm probably not going to eat much today. We'll see how I feel in a few hours.

        Onto goals.
        JFT, 6/20/20

        - JFT :smiley:
        - Dishwasher
        - wipe down kitchen counters(take everything off first! Don't be lazy!)
        - work on a few lessons of the writing course
        - meet step goal. It's supposed to be gross out so do it a bit at a time
        - clean grill plate
        - work on cleaning out the fridge
        - pick up bedroom floor

        JFT from Friday 6/19
        - Focus on veggies. ✅
        - Exercise
        - Put away sewing supplies and beads/crafting boxes that have been sitting out over the week. This will lead to cleaning out the game closet yet again. Find 5 things to give away. ✅
        - Drop off donations ✅
        - Drop off cloth that needs to be recycled
        - Clear off the coffee table ✅

        JFT for today, Sat 6/20 😋
        - Focus on veggies
        - Prepare the meals I have planned (rather than grab and go)
        - Exercise
        - Declutter the bedroom. I don’t have a meaningful way to quantify this even though I know would make it a more of an achievable goal.

        @ZizzyBumble - I’m sorry to read about your Mom. Hugs to you.

        @pridesabtch - I have to confess I’m a little envious of how much you and your hubby do together.

        We have decided to go camping in mid July. We are borrowing our daughters pop up tent trailer. I can’t handle tents at all!

        Saturday 20 June

        I’ve had a physically and emotionally exhausting week and I’ve not been focussing on my normal goals. My mum has had to move to a hospice and I’m going to return to my usual health goals. I’ve been grabbing quick and easy food and having a bit too much to drink without exercise with the expected consequences! Today I’m meeting a friend and going for a horse ride to blow the cobwebs away and have some well deserved “me time”.

        Log :)
        Stay in the green :)
        5 fruit and veg :)
        Water :)
        Fitbit exercise goals :)

        I had a lovely ride and it was good to get out of the house and do something different. Thank you for your kind wishes.

        - No alcohol

        - No soda after lunch

        Be your best you today!

        Complete change of plans. Because of a wrong weight in my Garmin, my deficit has apparently been too aggressive lately leaving me weak and dizzy today. We were at WM and I got super hot and dizzy. I lost my balance and fell. Crazy embarrassing. I needed to boost my blood sugar in a hurry so I had a candy bar.

        Coach ordered a rest day and excess calories. I’m trying to keep it reasonable, but I know he is right. If my numbers were right I should have lost 3-4 pounds so far this month, but I’ve lost almost 7.

        Y’all take care...

        I’m a bit disappointed that my weight seems a bit stuck, but I’m going to keep on with what I’m doing for another week to get a better idea. I wasn’t going to post, but then I thought that’s stupid. So here I go again - just for today (Sunday), I’m going to log everything and stay in the green. Also aiming to get outside for a walk with a friend and clean up my flat too.
