    Worked today so no formal exercise, just steps. The plan for tomorrow is to do a body pump DVD. I'm getting tired of videos, they're all basically the same. So I'll take my laptop and DVD's

    M – I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to be isolated. Be away from people? That just isn’t for me.

    Rori – so great to see you. When is your birthday? Happy early birthday!

    Barbara – the foot has been feeling great for over a week. The MD said that it healed properly

    Meg – so sorry about your cat

    Debbie CA – (((HUGS)))

    Tracey – happy birthday to Rodger. I hope they can get to the bottom of his issues

    Well, I had my sourdough starter sitting on the counter for Christmas, mainly because I didn’t have room in the refrigerator. I’ve been feeding it multiple times/day and so far I haven’t gotten much of a rise. I think I just need to continue to do it.

    Jess came here and like I said, she drove all the way thru. Since her classes start on the 19th, I’m thinking that she’ll be going back this weekend.

    Debbie, my heart breaks hot you.

    Allie, continued prayers for your healing.

    Meg, welcome back!

    I had a pie crust left over from Thanksgiving that was about to expire and a can of sweet potatoes taking up too much room in the cabinet so made a sweet potato pie from the Skinny Taste site. I only ate a small sliver. It was pretty yummy. The recipe used brown sugar instead of white and only 230 calories for a whole slice. I plan to have a slice tomorrow morning for breakfast!

    After work, checked out a local rivulet to see if it might be suitable for canoeing ... this is only 2 or 3 km away from where we live.

    Morning, afternoon and evening, all,

    Meg
    It's so good to see you again. Hope all is going well for you...

    Debbie
    I woke up thinking of you--I know I've already said it, but I'm just so sorry for the loss of your dad.

    Spent all morning yesterday swapping my sewing area and my office. Now that I'm no longer working, I'm not in my office 8 to 10 hours a day, so need much less within my reach. Sewing quilts on a machine, on the other hand, always takes up significant room, so that 8-foot by 4-foot desk that Corey made for me will come in seriously handy...

    The good part is that, even though I can no longer hear the washing machine and dishwasher from my computer, I have this view:

    I even started it myself, something I usually leave for my husband, mainly because I'm a complete princess and hate getting my hands dirty!
    :smiley:
    OK, that's not completely true, but I definitely prefer to get my hands dirty only when I choose. Much like sweating--I don't mind sweating during any self-chosen exercise... but I do NOT like sweating when it is not my idea and I'm not dressed for it. OK, yes, I am a princess.
    :blush:

    Today is finishing up the shifting around for my sewing space so everything that's needed is in reach, and working on my niece's quilt. It's 18 degrees here this morning (-8 C) and definitely a morning to be tootling around inside the house.

    Love y'all,
    Lisa in AR

    :) New Year's Eve went better than I expected. There were fireworks set off near enough to our neighborhood to be noisy, but Bessie wasn't as stressed as she has been in years past. She came out into the living room to be with us while we were awake and then she came and slept on the floor next to my side of the bed overnight so she was far away from the window and any exterior wall. Thus I slept well, too.

    :) I averaged over 14,000 steps a day in 2020. What helped keep the average high, was the decision I made to walk in the evening. I finished today with over 14,000 steps so I've made a good beginning to the year.

    My word for 2021 is "lighten up"---yes, I know it's two words, but you get the idea.

    :) I don't see resolutions as measurable as much as attitudes to help me do better. I can resolve to lighten up, be more active, be more cheerful, drink more water and have them be guiding principles each day.

    :) There's a basket of laundry on the table and in honor of my resolution to "lighten up", I'm going to leave it until tomorrow morning.
