Lanette All my windows open also but starting to see my sleeping temp of 66 rising. I will turn on AC when it hits 68. 103 predicted high for here today.1

Machka: You have been busy! I am impressed by all the things you’ve accomplished.
Pip: It looks like you’re nearing departure. I hope you have a wonderful new adventure. :flowerforyou:
Allie: We’ve never let our dogs sleep in our bed. Our dog does sleep in our bedroom, in his own bed. Long years ago, I had a kitty that slept in the bed. She was an amazing cat and I still miss her, 50+ years later.
Lisa: I don’t take a fiber supplement. I enjoy some relatively high fiber foods. I love medium grained brown rice, celery, green beans, and salads made with romaine lettuce. Once in a while I have the treat of corn on the cob. I love broccoli, but DH can’t digest it so I don’t get it very often. I’m not an oatmeal fan, either. I use it as an ingredient when I make meat loaf, though. :flowerforyou:
Deliafayefox: I love the rainbow photo. Gorgeous!
Machka: We do many things the way you do. I wash my clothes and DH washes his. We have a dishwasher and I’m the one who usually loads it and then puts the dishes away. DH pays the bills. Thank Goodness!!!!! We had a cleaning lady come in every other week, but no longer. She refused to wear a mask even though I offered to buy her one. Because she declined to wear a mask she is NOT working for us anymore. DH has medical challenges and getting the virus would be life threatening. Which means I’m the cleaner now. :ohwell:
Karen in VA: The plant is gorgeous. Is ii a coleus? :huh:
Lanette: It is 67F right now and the forecast is 96F by the late afternoon. We usually have an afternoon breeze this time of year and sit on the deck to enjoy it.
Today while we are running errands, we’re stopping by the Vet’s office so he can see the lesion on Schooner’s back end. It is likely cancerous, and the question is when to have it surgically removed. Schooner is an old dog and surgery has a level of risk.

Some bean soup or cottage cheese, Keep it higher in protein, lower in carbs, no more than 10g sugar if you can help it.
thank you for all the suggestions-0 -

Doing another overnight thursday
I have trouble sleeping all the time- I used to use Melatonin but didn't like feeling groggy the next morning.
Started using this: works faster and doesn't leave me so tired/groggy in the morning.

Lisa, I loved your description of camping as pretending to be homeless. Someone once told he that her idea of "camping" was staying at a two star motel that didn't have HBO. I like my own house best and a nice motel second. When I first met Jake, he asked me if I like camping and when I said no, he was delighted because he didn't like it either.
My (now ex) partner and I went camping once - bought every known gizmo and gadget known to mankind, bought great tent, planned, and set off with high hopes. First night the blow up under mat developed a puncture, the tent leaked and the night was as cold as ever known in the UK........ so in the morning we packed everything up, drove to a holiday chalet, booked in for a fortnight and sold every single camping thing we owned 6 -
Started back to logging everything. Adding walking back in since temps are more tolerable, and I found a fasting app that I’m trying out. Starting with 14/10 and will see from there.
Working on making 3 more chili pepper banners for rangers here. Almost done. DH drew me an alien pattern and want a flag if that. I’ll post Pic of finished product when I do it.

Did a body pump uTube video. The plan for tomorrow is to do some Dressed Up Drills
Debbie – those masks look really nice. You did a great job! I got my masks from this lady who made them as a fundraiser for the soup kitchen that I volunteer at
Mcrait – welcome. No, this isn’t a closed group
Masks are required almost everywhere here too. Even if they aren’t required, out of habit I put one on. But I must admit, the second I leave the store, off comes the mask.
SueBDew is the only person I know of who has CV
Dflk – oh, those blackberrires look so so good. I especially like that they’re thornless
Barbara and Sharon – so sorry about the accidents
Saw a lady at the gym today and I know she usually goes to the Y which is why I was surprised to see her here. She said that the Y still isn’t open, but they do have classes outside. Sounds like they’re about the only gym that isn’t open, not sure why
Here’s hoping is OK. Anyone know what part of TX she’s in?
Lisa – Metamusil never upset my stomach
M – I’m with you, a place for everything. I TRY to throw out something so that I have room for it. Like I gave away my pressure cooker when I got an IP. Just don’t always do that with clothing, tho. I usually do exercise DVD’s. As you can see, I do have one or two exercise DVD’s
As far as cleaning house: I usually decide to do one thing (like wash the floor). Sometimes that causes me to do something more, but I don’t plan on that happening. If it does…wonderful
Bananas – interesting (touching the earth)
Off to the pool now (after going to the bathroom)

Thanks for the comment on the masks- I have been having fun making them- I did have a few days where I had wished I hadn't promised to have orders ready so quickly-had to stay up late, get up very early to do it but I did.
I am hoping to get some more Disney fabric/sheets tomorrow- The Frozen ones turned out really cute.
I LOVE blackberries- have picked the wild ones all through my childhood so when dad started the thornless ones we were all thrilled. I love spending time picking with him. Have to work close by if we are going to talk as his hearing isn't very good, even with his hearing aids in.
This picture is when my son was a lot younger(he is now 22yrs old) That is only a small part of their garden- everything is in 100ft rows in the front and in the back.
We have always had a huge garden(plus raised all of our own meat)- it was to feed the family/extended family etc. Then they sold at farmer's market until the fees got too high, then sold to up to 8 local restaurants but have cut back to two and now that the virus has hit, they are buying less- they are trying to sell more off the property this summer.

this picture is even older of Jona. Joke that I found him in the cabbage patch(but that was really broccoli I think)

I updated yogi's microchip address and used this as his profile pic. Kirby has 4 more work days to go the POD is full and closed. all we have left is what's going in the airstream, like kitchen stuff. we will be leaving the dishes, he wants to buy new dishes there.

Barbie glad to hear you’re doing what you must to heal, no matter how hard it is for you to scale back your activities.
Sharon sorry to hear of your Costco parking accident. I had a fender bender today too and am still shaken.
Belated welcome @tripsmom3! Our Better Bones and Balance coach recommended resistance bands and they really help build strength, IF you use them. With the wide band above our knees we did sit to stands and all kinds of weird sideways or crescent walking. Really made the “bacon sizzle”. We used the narrow bands for presses, pushes, rows and (with a dowel) hip hinges. I sure miss that class!
Belated welcome @josephinebowman Gwendolyn from VA
Ants: when they appear, we “puff” food grade diatomaceous earth around the perimeter of the house and in any cracks between the deck and the outer walls. Wear a mask as you don’t want to inhale the dust when it’s clouding. Dogs don’t lick it nor do we put it out thick or wide enough from them to get on their paws, just a thin line at the base of the house does it.

Tina- I have done that too often- think I am keeping my calories too low most days- do not go over 1000 , even when I have extra to use after exercising.
Trying to find a happy balance where I start loosing again. Staying at 1000 for the past year+ and haven't lost any weight since Jan.0 -
On day 4 of re-committing myself to making better choices. Its so wonderful to wake up fasted, feeling strong, less bloated, and leaner! Not sure what feast I am making today. Last night I came up with a couple, but more toward noon I shall forage! The hunter, gatherer approach.😁

We are all different. I'm mostly at maintenance and want to keep it off. So if I have a day where I am significantly below allocation and am not hungry, I don't eat more just to hit my allocation. I call that a semi-fasting day. I sleep better on an empty stomach, so I would not push my limits.
When I was trying harder than I am now to build muscle, I would have used those 300 calories for a high protein snack such as cottage cheese, yogurt, or scrambled egg whites.
Good luck.

Good for You!!! You go, girl! I found eating 5 small balanced meals a day is the best for weight control. Waiting for my ride out further east to pickup world-famous Hermiston melons. Yea!!! I may not sleep tonight as have no self-control eating a vine-ripened melon if they are sweet. Great diuretic. Reports are they are great this year. Stay dedicated to your program.

Lisa - most fiber is from psyllium, but Heather's tummy fiber is from acacia instead. My tummy likes it better! Amazon carries it.
I'm bummed today. I had been texting a guy I met online for maybe a month. He said the sweetest things, to the point where it was really too much, but flattery always feels great. Now he asked me for money.
So I guess I will block him, even though I half believe his story. I do not do banking with people I barely know, even if he says he loves me. Scam or not, the relationship was one-sided and going nowhere.
Oh well, there is already a new guy on the horizon. I just hate to be rude to the old guy. Guess I will have to put my big girl panties on and just block him.

I enjoyed my afternoon just listening to my languages on YouTube.
I've found a good German site. My German is definitely better than my Norwegian.
I've found that, if I like the presenter, I'm much more likely to turn to it. Their personality is very important. It should be fun!
Karen - How are you getting on with Pierre?
I hardly slept at all last night, for some strange reason, but felt ok most of the day. I did succumb to a short nap this afternoon.
I was in the middle of writing this morning when my lovely brother rang to see how DH was. My bruv is having a kidney stone op on August 4th and the whole household, wife, two children and one boyfriend, are in isolation for 14 days beforehand. His granddaughter had a gallbladder op today and her whole household of 5 adults and a baby had to isolate for the same time. Not allowed to go out at all. Not even to walk the dog. They have a niece who is walking the dog!
My DSIL resigned her teaching job through anxiety and has just got a new part time one helping out at a blood donor centre. Starting end of August. She is 16 years younger than my bruv.
Then I went onto Google to research some of the things my diary entries were referring to that I couldn't remember. All places in Brighton in 1965. I found a defunct department store and a famous coffee house.
Talk about memory lane! I had the receipt from Wades, the department store, tucked into the pages. Shame those are dying out. There are none in Brighton. It was in a beautiful 1930s building that is now a Next. People were reminiscing about going to see Father Christmas.
I also must have gone on the train with my girlfriend. The direct train line from Horsham to Brighton was cut by Dr Beeching in 1966. Now you have to go a longer way round. The girlfriend I went with was Shirley, who died 18 months ago of a horrible degenerative disease of the brain stem.
So many memories! We had a Wimpey and chips (fries) for lunch.
Brighton figured largely in my teenage years and my youngest was at university here. Our move here was obviously meant to be. :-)

I am trying to loose 10 pounds, would love to loose 15 that would put me at 125 which I haven't been in years.
I can NOT sleep if I am hungry- I toss and turn until I get up and get something- usually just a few crackers or a little peanut butter but have to have something.
I did really good about keeping it balanced but lately seem to be obsessing too much and eating too little. I will figure out a balance where I start loosing again.1 -

I have struggled with sleeping for about 20 years. I always thought it was related to allergies. I live where allergens are ever-present. I have changed up medications and nothing really worked for that. However, it took me 20 years, but I found out when I was doing a fasting period to lose a few pounds and hence drinking a ton of water, I was able to sleep a lot better once I convinced myself I was not hungry. I started remembering my dreams, which had not happened for decades. It took a lot of mental preparation to ignore the hunger, but sleeping is a very nice thing. I didn't realize how much I missed dreaming!

Annie, what Rebecca said! The guy is a total scammer! Run away and don't look back!
Lisa, your cleaning strategy is similar to mine! lol (looks like there's been a struggle!)
Sharon, I love the stained glass in your door's window. I saw a few suggestions for a strategy for cleaning that I try to implement myself. One that works for me best is assigning a time limit, usually only 10 or 15 min "I'm going to do dishes for a certain length of time, not just I'm going to clean, that's far too ambiguous, but a specific task for a specific length of time. Good luck!
Thanks all, for the birthday wishes! Getting the food at the trattoria with no parking was a bit of an adventure, but I only had to go around the block twice, then parked in a "residents only" spot, figuring that by the time someone realized I was there and called bylaw enforcement and they showed up I would be gone. And I was only parked there for about 5 min, so no harm done. The food was good, but I wouldn't go all that way for it again. I ordered a lasagna that was supposed to be made with a bechamel sauce as well as the tomato sauce, but I didn't find any bechamel! I had one last year when we met up with friends up island, OMG!!! it was so good! I would go back there for their lasagna, but that is a few hours away so definitely a very occasional thing.
Camping, never with my parents, a few times for Girl Guide projects or badges, but really did not develop a love of sleeping outdoors. Now, being out in the shrubbery during the day, well, that's fine, especially if there is at least an outhouse nearby, but I need my bed to sleep in. I was fortunate to find a man who feels the same way!
I have started tracking again, not sure why I stopped, lazy I guess. Anyway, the weight is creeping up again. I know part of it is because it is so warm here (well, warm for here, lol) and I'm not drinking enough water but my salt intake is up. I could really feel it a few days ago, my hands felt so tight, not just the rings, but the hold hand. Uncomfortable for sure. They feel better now, but rings are still too tight, a sure sign that water is at least part of the problem. I haven't been doing a lot of overboard eating, definitely a few things that shouldn't have passed my lips, but..... Anyway, back to tracking!
Hope everyone has a great day/evening/night! Hugs for those needing them, congrats to those celebrating and welcome to the newbies!

A quick lunch and we are headed out of here! High today for this desert place is 104. We had planned for Thursday but the high predicted for that day is 109. It is 92 here now and no breeze. I always like to get my melons direct from the farm. Faye heading back west

Thank you, Annie!
I really appreciate the suggestion - and yes, my system does not react well to psyllium fiber even in very small doses. Pity, because it's cheap.
Regarding the money asker, yeah, you've gotten the advice already. I hate people who scam for money and thieves - I swear they'd work less hard if they'd just get a real job.
Later, y'all,
Love,
Lisa in AR
