@littleblackskirt good for you for taking every precaution opening your store. Your employees will appreciate it more than you know, customers too!!!
@AJB1014, thank you. I don't think I've ever mentioned it, my business is a holiday let apartment, not a store.
I usually clean it thoroughly when guests leave on a Saturday, obviously now I will have to clean then disinfect everything. Holidays are allowed from 4th July. The government guidelines are long! I have to use cleansers which have been tested on coronavirus, which I couldn't find in my town, thank goodness for the internet! I haven't been able to travel to the apartment since March, so will have to take shower heads apart and disinfect, so there is no chance of guests catching Legionnaires Disease. I feel very responsible for providing a clean and safe environment, but am also aware that guests could actually bring the virus with them from other parts of the country, so need to protect myself too. I would prefer not to open up, but have had no income while it's been closed, so it makes sense to accept the summer lets. It seems people are desperate to go on holiday!
Anyway, I'll be so busy there will be no time to eat, so Saturdays may be very good dieting days4 -
💜💜💜To all those essential workers still going out there....
I choose to feed my body the nutrition it needs and feed my mind with the quality thoughts it deserves

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.

@littleblackskirt Hope all goes well when your business reopens. It must have been a stressful few months for you.
@mytime6630 It's lovely to see you posting again. I understand your dilemma, but, as you say, your concern has to be with your husband for now. (((Hugs)))3 -

- 3 bullet points on my outline 6 actually! A few of them aren't fully fleshed out yet in the outline but I know what I want them to be about so I'm not worried about that.
- 2 mini goals
- actually cook something for dinner I only sauteed some frozen pierogies in butter. Lol. But it's still better than take out!
So Matt still isn't feeling great. His stomach isn't happy with him but he's been able to work which is a blessing. The next few days are going to have to be back to a really bland diet. Lots of plain chicken and veggies and maybe a little bit of starch from potatoes or rice. This has happened before and sometimes it has lasted a few days. I'm hoping it ends soon. I hate it when he feels like this because there's really nothing I can do.
We got out new couch delivered yesterday! We got it at a furniture thrift shop. It's wonderful! Lol. The delivery guy wasn't sure he was going to be able to get it to us yesterday but he did at like 5:30. Lol. We LOVE it. It has a recliner at each end, is kinda firm but still comfortable, and is made of great material. To get the previous one out Dad, Matt, and I stood on the back of it and pushed until it broke. Lol. We all almost tumbled forward when the wood gave way. It was really funny.
I am in a much better mood than I was a few days ago. I also spent most of yesterday sleeping. I'm not sure why. But it was glorious! I ended up taking 2 3-hour naps! Lol. One in the morning and one in the afternoon. Lol. I got up with Matt at 6 this morning too and then went back to sleep for another hour and a half before running to the store. Now I'm awake and plan to stay that way!
Okay! Enough of my novel!

Isn't it time for this year to be over??????????????
My Mom died in early March out of state. Had to arrange to bring her back her for her funeral. This was the first week of Covid shutdown. Funeral could only have 10 people in attendance; sad for so many reasons and on so many levels.
Then into full isolation due to Covid. Everything closed. Groceries delivery only. Dealing with isolation, boredom, major "cabin fever", lack of physical contact with other humans, etc.
Then, hit with 500 year flood and it's aftermath. Three days of Flood Watch to determine if I would need to evacuate while worried about family who already had to evacuate twice from two locations. Brother's house flooded over 5 feet inside house totally destroying everything. Can't help with cleanup so volunteered to do laundry (SIL major quilter so trying to salvage her finished work as well as other sheets, bedding, etc). Also making daily runs to Flood Distribution Centers for cleanup supplies, food, water, etc.
Finally, about first of June, Michigan starting to slowly open back up. Restaurants having seating available while following distancing guidelines, etc as mandated by state. Thrilled I'm finally able to get a restaurant meal occasionally, but still playing it safe for the most part.
June 9-10, had inspectors come in and they determined I had black mold in the house ... which grows and spreads mega rapidly. So, due to lung conditions and allergies, I had to move out of my house. Since all cleaning & restoration services in our state are heavily engaged with flood restoration, they are hard to get booked. Most were quoting 6-8 weeks before they could start. Luckily, I had an experience last year with Modernistic and promoted them heavily for their excellent work so they graciously worked with me this time ... but it was still almost 2 weeks before they could get into my house. Then had a house cleaning service come in to clean my house top to bottom and do laundry for any fabrics (like bedding, drapes, etc) that may have been exposed to mold spoor. Since I had never had mold issues in the 40+ years in this house, the inspectors felt I may have introduced it with the black plastic bags of flood contaminated quilts, etc that I brought into the house. GREAT!! I created this mini disaster myself.
So, I am back home (after living in a 10-foot camper for almost a month. Have laundry to do, inventories to do -- so I can put in an order for delivery, and make to-do lists LOL.
I seriously don't have the energy or time to read all the posts I've missed so will just start from here. Congrats to all who have lost during this time! Hang in there to those who've been maintaining or gaining!! Welcome to any folks who are new or who have returned after a time away.
It's great to be back. Hope to restart my new normal in this unnormal time we're living in right now. Hope y'all have a great day!10 -

@mytime6630 - I’m so happy to see you back. I can’t imagine how torn you are but I think you need to keep your daughter outside for your husband’s sake. Hugs to you.
@ZizzyBumble - I’m sorry that it is getting to be that time for your Mom, but I’m glad they have eased the restrictions so you can be there. It is so hard on families when they can’t connect at times like this.
@littleblackskirt - it will be nice to be able to open. The cost of extra precautions in both time and money are a necessary evil right now. We hired extra housekeeping staff and made checklists to make sure nothing is missed at our home. If I were you l, I would just make sure I was practicing good hand washing and remembering to keep my hands from my face while cleaning. I agree you need to have some income.

@cesse47 - I hope the rest of your year gets better.1

I’m up early, my brother spent last night at the hospice and I’m going to take over from him. We had been limited to 1 person at a time and a total of an hour visiting per day (COVID 19) but restrictions have now been lifted for us to be with mum at the end. I’m not sure how I will do with my goals but I might as well try.

Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut1. 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. G Suite tomorrow HAS to be a priority. Long run too.4 -

Y'all make it happen today!
I just wasn't feeling it yesterday. I went to bed at 11:30 and didn't get up until noon. I still didn't feel great, but knew I needed to get up. Hubby and I went for a nice bike ride today. Added a half hour to my duration, meaning I did almost 2 hours. Only got 28 miles in, but it is my longest ride this year. I'm happy with it. I couldn't log in this morning to post goals, but had a decent day all told. Cleaned and lubed the bikes while hubby grilled steak, then after dinner I babied myself a bit. Bubble bath, self tan, nails.
While I'm here, I post goals for Sunday.
- sleep in
- Get dolled up for a graduation party at 2
- Be mindful of food at the party
- If the weather holds off I'll walk, if it rains, I'll ride the Peleton

@cesse47 , I really hope the second half of 2020 is better for you, you've had more than your fair share of bad times!
@Snowflake1968 , I'll be working from checklists too. The main guidance is 20 pages long, with extra instructions from the holiday agency. I was self employed for many years, I'm not used to following instructions! It weighs on me that this is so important, I'm sure you understand that given where you work.littleblackskirt wrote: »

Saturday: everything logged
Sunday: log everything
I have now logged every day for the past 3 weeks, which is a great streak for me! And while my loss from last week to this week was small, overall I am very pleased with the results from 3 weeks of consistent journalling.
I hope all of you find something nice about today!9 -
Kitten!!!!!! I just created a long post and managed to hit the wrong button yet again. Duh!
I’m going to simplify what I wrote. Finally feeling more myself post oral surgery. My jaw is still really sore and I have to stick with soft, non-spicy foods for another 2 weeks. Ugh! But I’ve found some foods that work for me although I’m eating more sugar (fruits) than I was.
For today...
1. Eat 2-3 servings of veggies. Cut them small and cook until really soft? Soup? I’ll work on something for dinner.
2. 30 min of light exercise. I’m not suppose to get my blood pumping for a few more days or it could cause the wound to bleed or bust. ☹️
3. Laundry
4. Work on my to do list and calendar for the week.
Have a good Sunday everyone!7 -

@cesse47 Oh No. what a 2020 you’ve had. I’m so sorry. All I could think reading through was of a meme I read (not that my mom ever said this to me, but i thought it was funny):
“Is that offer still open to slap me into next year?”
I’m sure things will start to stabilize and you’ll feel better a year from now but I’m sorry you have to go through it all right now! 😢2 -
Happy Sunday everyone! I'm 4 days behind again, and I didn't get caught up from the days I missed before that. So if I missed something, please let message me and let me know!
I lost my job on Wednesday. Leadership decided that based on revenue, they were eliminating my position. Since I had the least amount of seniority in the organization, it was me who was let go. So, I've been in a funk, trying to figure things out. I've been working for 43 years, and the last 30 years has been doing pretty much the same thing, so not sure what I'm going to do now at 60 years of age.
Nevertheless, that is no excuse to eat mindlessly. I have not been overeating by any means...I've actually not been eating much at all which is the exact opposite of how I normally react to stress or depression! But I haven't been eating the most nutritious meals. I tried to get on here but couldn't get in for a day or two, and then I stopped trying for a few days.
So.....I hope you are all doing well! I miss you when I get behind like this.
Just for Sunday:- Preplan and journal every bite
- 75+ oz water
- Eat mindfully, sitting down, putting down my fork or food between bites and chew slowly. Pay attention to hunger scale!
- Do my daily readings and listen to my podcasts for mental clarity, chat with God, and write my Daily Dialog.
- Work on one sewing project today.
- Go see mom at some point.
- Try to keep my attitude in check...stop letting negative thoughts and worries take control. 6PM WT--make list.
- Evening routine: Brush/floss, lotion & face cream, gratitude journal, read & sleeping by 10:30.
Gratitude: Today I am grateful for unemployment, friends who have been reaching out, and my husband who is always so supportive!
WOTY: Persistence

@PackerFanInGB - I’m sorry you lost your job. Is there a chance you can retire early or do you need to work a bit longer?
I failed miserably with my eating last evening, it’s my own fault and tonight I’ll do better.
I have to do some cleaning today and other than that I think I’ll read more of Moms diaries. I am incredibly bored. I miss doing things and seeing my friends and family. I am very thankful that Rodger and I are friends and live peacefully together now and that this wasn’t a few years ago.

I'm so sorry to hear about your job loss. Are there organizations that will help you search for a new job? Or, are you on your own? Hang in There!!
When you log in and get a message that says there's a problem, click on the Community Tab to see if you can get to the Message Boards. That's worked most times for me. Then I can log food, exercise, etc. Just can't get to Home Page ... until they "fix" whatever the issue is.3 -
