    Tuesday April 7

    I missed posting yesterday and failed to do my exercise (first day missed since the start of the bunny challenge). I need to catch up with my logging again! I Leo need to log my bunnies on here.

    @PackerFanInGB it’s lovely that you mum is happy in her new house and yes I knitted the pullover myself. My granny taught me to knit many years ago and I’ve restarted after a long break. I have some new wool and can knit while keeping my mum company.

    @PackerFanInGB -- thanks! I've added the Happy Yoga vid to my Watch List. It's nice to have 2-3 to choose from. I appreciate the info on the massage. Sorry to hear you have lymphedema which is causing so much pain for you. I do know how debilitating pain can be. I am interested because I have swelling in my foot, ankle, and lower calf on one leg. The doc said to use the RICE procedure which does help for a bit ... then it's back. This may be something that could help me. There is a DIY vid on Yahoo that explains how I can try to do it myself that I'll give a try ... especially since I can't get out to a doctor because it's not "essential". I had a radical hysterectomy about 15+ years ago and they took a huge number of lymph nodes. If that were part of the problem, wouldn't this issue have risen before now? Oh well, hopefully the DIY vid will help. Thanks so much for the info.

    I'll definitely let you know if I find any others. Have a good night!! :)

    Morning all. It’s a beautiful day, and I have lots planned.
    I am grateful...
    • ...that we live right on the edge of the countryside where we can walk in relatively solitude.
    • ...for the resources at my fingertips on the internet.
    • ... that I have the expertise to improvise.

    Terri, this is awesome! I do a Gratitude journal at night where I list 5 things I'm grateful for that day, but thinking about it at the start of the day is a great idea. Thanks for sharing this!


    @maryrobinson40 What a beautiful picture of the sunrise! Pink skies are my favorite... I have to live vicariously through you to see the sunrise since I can't seem to get my rear-end out of bed early enough to witness it myself! :mrgreen:

    😂😂😍 Trust me Sis... I don't get up often enough to catch it either and that one made me soar.

    Got exercise today but paid for it because I chose to walk. My shin splints got much worse. Iced a couple times tonight but really need to keep off now. Frustrating because I finally got back to jogging after at least 3 years and now I have to sit out for awhile and slowly build up again. Grrrr. Otherwise a nice, productive day. A little bit of work, a little home chores. Feeling my head start to clear which will be more helpful later.

    I’ve been frustrated in that I’m eating in a similar manner and exercising well, but on my walk today I realized there are a few things different about being at home that may be contributing to my weight loss stall out:

    a) cortisol up from stress—can partially address with daily meditation
    b) when I drove to work, I worked out before leaving. Now I’m exercising more middle to end of day. Maybe I’m losing the benefit of that metabolism rev and it’s just enough to keep me from losing. —can address by moving back to morning workouts
    c) when I drove to work I listened to HalfSizeMe to stay motivated, and I spent my morning exercise in deep thought. Past 2 weeks the only time I had to listen to podcasts was while out walking/jogging and I lost out on deep thought/planning sessions. I think this also affected my stress and my focus each day. —can address by having at least one silent exercise session each day (I think better when moving)

    I hope these tweaks help me out. Trying to hold on and be ok with at least maintenance but it’s gnawing at me that I can’t even blame it on fun nights out, comfort eating, or anything similar. Just my body refusing to let these pounds go!

    Tomorrow!

    Daily habits: track, exercise, journal

    OMG...I am right there with you! I even started a new medication from my doctor that is supposed to kick-start metabolism, curb cravings and appetite and help you lose weight... Well, I HAVE really cut back on how much I'm eating, I'm actually NOT craving stuff like I used to and I am STILL at the same weight after 2 weeks! WTH? Starting to feel a little depressed about it...but am trying to be happy that I'm at least not gaining right now.

    I totally feel your pain.

    @PackerFanInGB Hi Tracie, thanks for the kind words! It is so frustrating, isn’t it? I did get my head in a better space today with some specific things I’ll try to do different (see my tasks post) but right now I can only hope the small tweaks will make the difference. But like you said—at least not gaining! Focus on our gratitude!

    So...grateful for beautiful weather, my general health, and my sweet husband! Here’s a pretty flower arrangement he made for me from the yard today.

    Forgot to write my goals yesterday...
    Was in the red... oh well

    Goals for today
    Stay green
    Workout
    Mow lawn
    Hang with family

    I have a meeting I could go to but with the COVID planning and what that means to my schedule I’ve been swamped with work emails and I gotta day it’s pretty much been trying to ruin my vacation.
    I feel just as stressed as if I were at work.

    Adding to my goal for today... don’t checking my email more than twice

    Me going out for bits last week all geared up haha! I took the pic for ash because he doesn't believe I wear my protective gear because he knows I get paranoid over my looks

    However. After Time of Month, I had a horrendous breakout of spots all around my lower face.
    And the mask.. covers it all hooray!!! No one knows :D


    Also can I ask you all a question...

    So I know some of you know my age. But how old would you say I LOOK. But I'm forever getting IDd for stuff. (It's THINK 25 over here so if you look under that they ask)
    Some b!t€h yesterday IDd me and she was younger than me! And I knew, she just did it to be a cow you know?

    I've temporarily lost my driving licence ID (it's somewhere in the house lmao!) and don't feel comfortable taking my passport out and that's all I have!

    Went to another shop.. no problem.. *eye roll*

    Love the Icelandic sweater and the beautiful irises. Mother Nature is unperturbed, as she dons her best threads.

    For those of you with kids, let them learn by doing. Get them involved in cooking. And antthing else you are doing. Any create things together. Art competitions are good fun.

    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
    Today: 197.4

    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. PB usernames 6 digits, no 19 or 20s, no birthdates. 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 Apr 30 8 AM but check on meetings and RS. Onco Apr ???. PCP Schedule for July. ObG schedule for October. PCP - allergy shots?
    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.
    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. Uff. Big jump in weight. Hopefully it's because of TOM, but it may have something to do with the fact that my husband made raisin bread yesterday XD

    @clicketykeys The calories for dried fruit are insane! I was going to add some to my nut mix until I saw the figures.
    @PackerFanInGB it’s great that you now have your mum nearby and that she loves her new house.

    My dad has lymphedema in one of his legs from a procedure he had done last year and he actually has a compression stocking he has to wear daily now that goes from his toes to his thigh. I think having it in the leg might be tougher to control because I'm able to be careful about lifting heavy things with my arm, and not using it when it's irritated, but our legs can't be babied as easily. I think I would google lymphedema massage for leg and try doing that, and then maybe get some compression stockings to help keep the swelling down after you do the massage. I'm not a health care worker at all though, so probably best to ask your doctor before doing anything I say! LOL!

    @packerfan - what is the name of the new med and are you noticing any side effects

    It's called phentermine and the only side effect I notice is that I feel like I drank a pot of coffee when it kicks in, but that only lasts for a little bit. I do have to have my blood pressure taken once a month by them to make sure my BP doesn't rise, as that can be a side effect. Other than that, I'm good!

    6) Finalize grocery list / order bread for Easter
    7) Floss / retainers

    Late posting today b/c keeping busy at home and really enjoying being with hubby once he wakes up. Used to be, he'd sleep while I went to work at my office job, I'd see him on my one hour lunch break, I'd come home from work to the cat and dog for the entire evening, then be sleeping when he got home. Repeat Mon. - Fri. At least now, we see each other awake a few hours each weekday, and I'm loving that!

    My usual grocery store just announced only one person per household in store, so can't shop with hubby on weekends like we've been, social distancing others of course. Have my grocery list almost complete, planning on Easter dinner for just the two of us, on a much smaller scale. Already have most of the basics, just need to fill in a few gaps, and plan ahead for another two weeks. Not so bad, but I need to organize list better before I go, so I can be as efficient as possible.

    I WILL get back to you. I've just typed out a response twice and lost it twice so I had to stop before I launched my phone at the wall lmfao
    But everything's good :) do you use what's app?

    Hahaha! Oh good! No, you are not worse than I am. I'm just a paranoid old woman. :mrgreen: I've never heard of the what's app...I'll have to see what it is!

    By the way, I think you look very young and pretty. I'm not good at guessing ages so I'm no help there, but you sure do have beautiful eyes! Are they green?

    It's just like a messaging app but uses data not minutes/texts. But you can call over wifi. Free calling I think but I will double check!

    They're hazel but more green than brown. Like green on the outer side and brown nearer the iris lol :) xx

    Good morning, all. Today is calm, and surprisingly warm.
    I am grateful...
    • ...that my morning meditation centred me for today.
    • ...that I have made some masks to wear when we HAVE to go for essentials
    • ...that I have much to occupy my mind positively.

      For all those essential workers still going out there....
      🙏🏻 Thank you for your service 🙏🏻
      Everyone else, please stay home!!!

      What am I doing to keep busy?
      To name a few...
      • I’ve joined a 14 day on line art challenge (search for painters on line on Facebook)
      • structuring my day
      • morning and evening meditation
      • Using the internet to ‘talk’ to family
      • crochet, jigsaws, journaling, gardening, reading, writing .......
      • HIIT videos off YouTube,
      • yoga/Taichi
      • Walks with DH
      • Cleaning! Cleaning! Cleaning! 😂
      • Decluttering
      • Stress relievers (search YouTube for Paul McKenna)
      Keep your chin up!
      The only failure is giving up!
