    @acrylicfox @teigansdad I find it helpful to not focus on a goal or date, but making this my lifestyle one day at a time. The rest will follow.

    Some good advice!
    Thanks :heart:

    Wednesday
    No beer❌😐
    No M&Ms❌😐
    Zwift workout✅
    12 pull-ups✅
    25 push-ups❌
    At least I was still in green 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Thursday goals
    It’s already been fairly productive... the schools opened back up again. My wife works as an SLP and now has to be there early to help check kids Temps.
    -I wish she would look for a different job. She had been in the school system for probably 15 years. I think she’s gotten a raise MAYBE 4 times. Never even keeping up with cost of living. Plus with pandemic and some remote school she’s easily working 12-14 hr days.. if you March it out she’d probably do better as a manager at Burger King. How’s that for messed up?! The only academic priority NC politicians and I guess majority of tax payers is sports.


    Sorry for the rant

      So I think the interview went really well on Wednesday. Thank God I tried on my interview clothes earlier in the morning because they didn't fit! So I had to run to the store to buy more. $85 later. *sigh* And then stupid me didn't realize that I still had tags on the suit jacket until I got home from the interview! I really hope the manager didn't see them. Lol. But he seemed really excited throughout my interview with my work history and how open my availability is and things. He said that I should hear back today so keep those fingers crossed and those prayers coming!

      I want to go to school on Monday and tell them that I'm not coming back after Thanksgiving. Which isn't making me feel as guilty as I was yesterday because a bunch of the faculty thinks that the district will be going back to full virtual starting the week of Thanksgiving and going until the end of January, so they have more than enough time to find a replacement for me. Yay!

      Um...I started on a new story last night. I have no idea where the ideas came from, but they randomly popped into my head. It's a fantasy about a powerless witch whose parents force her to go to a magic college and all the mayhem that ensues. Lol. I'm really excited about it! I have to do some research today into mythological creatures for it, though.

      Okay, onto some goals!

      11/13/2020

      - Up at 7:15 :smiley:
      - Post goals :smiley:
      - Work (7:55-11:15)
      - Peddle for 30 minutes
      - Doc appt at 3
      - Dishwasher
      - Research mythological creatures for AC
      - Come up with a list of 5
      - Write at least 1 scene for AC

      Read a free form poem on Thursday night by Portia Nelson regarding the psychology of change. I’m stuck in chapter 3

      Chapter 1
      I walk down the street.
      There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
      I fall in.
      I am lost… I am helpless.
      It isn’t my fault.
      It takes forever to find a way out.

      Chapter 2
      I walk down the street.
      There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
      I pretend that I don’t see it.
      I fall in again.
      I can’t believe I am in this same place.
      But, it isn’t my fault.
      It still takes a long time to get out.

      Chapter 3
      I walk down the same street.
      There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
      I see it is there.
      I still fall in … it’s a habit … but, my eyes are open.
      I know where I am.
      It is my fault.
      I get out immediately.

      Chapter 4
      I walk down the same street.
      There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
      I walk around it.

      Chapter 5
      I walk down another street.


      For Thursday, honor my 3 day streak

      :

      This is awesome ... it really makes me stop to think about things. I also love chapter 3. Did you write these?? Love them!! Thanks so much for posting. I am going to save this.

        @HEGoddard0928 my fingers are crossed that you get the job. You did make me laugh with the tags on your new clothes, even if the interviewer noticed I don't think it would go against you. it shows you're keen.

        JFT Friday 13th Nov

        Be diet aware well, I was aware, but ate very badly anyway, not the plan!
        No snacking emmm....
        Dog sit yes
        Walk 30 minutes yes
        Admin yes
        Attempt to sort car insurance, again yes
        Tidy up garden yes

        My family suggested pizza, and also brought cake. It was lovely, but I felt much too full afterwards. Why do I do it, I should know better! I weighed myself this morning and refuse to go back up into the next stone so have to sort it now.

        JFT Saturday
        I will not give up, I will walk 30 minutes, and do 30 minutes gardening if it dries up.

        Saturday 14 November

        I am feeling better this morning after a much better nights sleep. I also noticed that, according to my Fitbit, my heart rate had been higher than usual whilst I was feeling ill and it’s now back to normal. I’m hungry as well!

        Log
        Stay in the green
        5 fruit and veg
        Water
        Fitbit exercise goals - no but will do something other than flopping around all day
        Happy Scale weight trend ⬇️ 1.2kg lost in last 7 days but that’s because I’ve not been eating much!
