    Back home and in my jammies..
    Like i said just hung with the family and didnt walk around that much..
    Found out Don was doubly vaccinated but chose to drink 3/4 of a fifth of booze nightly and that did the damage and basically reversed the vaccine..so very sad and such a talented musician.. alot of people were there which was nice but they mingled and came and went ..
    Alfie had a nice time and Elena and Tom got me a couple of potted ppants for my birthday which i thought was very sweet,here is hoping i can keep them alive..

    Newbie here and need help logging my daily steps. I use an aura ring and don't know where to record my steps. Just found your page today!!! Loving the upbeat posts!!!!

    You can log exercise. Click the Exercise link and select Walking ... but you'll need to know the time you took to walk those steps.

    Did Cool It Off DVD today (stretching) then went for a walk. Work tomorrow so no formal exercise

    Cloudy today but, fortunately, not raining. Hopefully, it’ll stay that way and I can go for my walk later today.

    Dawn – welcome!

    It was beautiful outside but I was waiting for Vince to go outside. He finally told me that he didn’t think he was going to go to WalMart, so I went in the pool. Water was 87. Refreshing. Tonight I’ll probably go for a walk and then clean the spa then put my feet in it while playing mahjongg online. Update: Did this

    Speaking of the mahjongg, remember how I told you that they’d voted to play in person? Well, I did send an email to the gal and asked why she and one other couldn’t take their laptops/tablets to the gals’ house where they play and they can play in person but the gal who has a place in the mountains and I can also play? I just heard back from her that the gal whose house they play at is trying to figure out her wi-fi password (??). I guess this means we play. I did ask her to let me know if the gal gets it figured out. Update: they will. I'll take my laptop out by the pool (on the upper patio where there is electricity and lights. That is, assuming the weather is nice. They're calling for nice weather so far)

    Made a chocolate cake for Vince. Just added some water to confectioners sugar for icing. I really want as little as possible in my freezer since the corn will be coming in soon and I want room for it. I know that if I make icing, there’ll be leftovers

    katla – how long do you go before you feed your sourdough starter? Do you bake bread or just feed the starter?

    hi trying intermittent fasting still = skipping breakfast or more rather having very late breakfast since i like breakfast.

    after yesterday with intermittent fasting lots of sport it was a bit disappointing to see scale up but i know one day up does not make a real weightgain...it can be fluctuation.

    really uncomfortable again at 10 am with no breakfast. went for a leisurely walk before 8 am for about half an hour and then espresso no sugar at café. i'm not sure if espresso works well for me if i'm skipping breakfast. it might be a bit full on for my stomach or mood or something without food.

    i didn't drink coffee for most of my life except a few years at around age 20 and then the past 3 or 4 years now that they say it's good for you -- it's handy cause an espresso costs 1 euro 20 at the counter (not possible now, but usually yes) and 2 40 sitting. where as tea tends to cost at least the double. (and often 4.50 whether at counter or sitting).

    and i get used to it.

    i think i might sometimes feel more nervous or anxious after coffee.

    computer on the blink and not getting news till midday.

    a pain!

    helped a friend on his file for an hour this morning.

    its way more easy for me to help others than to work on things for myself.

    the collective aspect is motivating.

    ok i'll clean a bit meditate, do some paper work in the 2h before i get news about computer.

    Oh Penny, I feel for you! <3<3<3

    Julie - Big outlay, but it will feel so good when you've got a nice, shiny, new one. :)

    My son agreed with going back to Fatto a Mano for a family meal this Friday after our school pick up. So I emailed the manager and he has booked us a table for 7 with a free dinner! :D Hooray! :drinker:

    Sea bass and curried sprouting beans for dinner. I'm going to make a bit of coleslaw to go with it.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    Katla: I remember that song 😂

    Heather: Saturday was dull and grey here, but yesterday and to day were very sunny. We are fortunate that we are further north than you, and often get a cooling breeze to take the heat down.

    Barbie: I also concur with your advice to Allie. Vaccinations aren't foolproof, so we are intending to mask up and social distance for quite some time to come.

    DrKatie: I have trouble keeping up too 😂 And we all go through the doldrums from time to time. Just take it one day at a time.

    Penny: 💕💖💕 and (((Hugs))) Moving is so stressful, but it will soon be done, and you can settle into Tromso.

    I off back into the garden. We are hedge trimming at the moment. DH Always likes to,wait until the birds have fledged before we tackle our hedges. I have lots of shaped box hedges that I like to do. Very meditative work. Must make the best of today as the forecast for tomorrow is for lunch rain.

    I hope those of you in the heatwave areas are able to find a sweet cool spot to relax in.

    (((Penny))) –- I hope you will come to love your new home. Spending more time with your DH and meeting new friends in your new neighborhood may help a bit. :heart:

    Heather -- Enjoy Fatto a Mano with the family. :bigsmile:

    Our high temperature today is projected to reach 114 Fahrenheit. We have our curtains down and the air conditioner at work already, at 7:43 am. DH is grumpy already. He’s been up since the wee hours of the morning. I don’t know why. :ohwell: I slept well. :bigsmile:

    I made an appointment with a new dentist only to realize I have no card for the insurance I pay for. This is going to be a pain to track down. I made a gynecology appointment too. Next up is dermatologist and eye doctor. Such adulting!

    My writing group has a read out loud meeting tonight. I have nothing to read but I signed up anyway. And I have meditation this afternoon, so it's too late to write something. Oh, the pressure! I'm not used to this anymore. But at least the moody feeling has passed. Yay!

    I walked twenty minutes! Yay!

    RV-Rita--Glad to see you post. Have missed you. Sorry about your marriage. Sending Hugs and Prayers. <3

    This is supposed to be the last day of the heat here if you believe the weatherman. It is supposed to reach 108* way too hot. They are telling us this is a 1 in 1000 years event. I'm not sure I believe that either. I put my jeans on this morning just to run out and feed animals and they were still damp from sweating in them last night when I was outside. Yuck!

    Penny - Sorry you are leaving your beloved North pole but hope you are happy in the new place.

    Katla - I left our horses out in the pasture last night so hopefully they would be cooler. Can Arrow be out or is he shut in?

    Everyone take care Sue in WA

    :) got up at 4:30 so I could walk the dogs for 90 minutes, eat breakfast , and work in the yard for an hour before 8AM. Now I am hidden in the air conditioned house til I have to walk the dogs again at 1:15. We are not used to this heat.
