Rough week for me. Hopefully some of this is water that will quickly disappear this week.3 -

Here's my This or That this week before I forget to answer it:
Between Juggle and Ride a unicycle, my thought for including this one in the choices is "which do I WISH I could do" because I can't do either one...think it would be neat to be able to juggle...
When I drank regular pop, I would have picked Coke in a quick minute...even collected Coke memorabilia at one time...but when I switched to Diet (when my mother was found to be diabetic), I couldn't stand the taste of diet coke...and grew to love Diet Pepsi...weird...don't drink much pop anymore, just the occasional Diet Mountain Dew, but since I had to choose...
Hope ya'll are having a great weekend!

I'll get my head back on straight next week. This week was a rough week for me. While I was in Vegas on a business vacation last week one of my residents passed away unexpectedly. She was one of my favorites so needless to say I took it hard.
Then I had to go back to work this week and deal with the aftermath & everyday I'd get there still expecting to see her at the top of the ramp greeting me like she did every morning.
So yeah, my eating was a bit rough.4 -

Definitely feeling the effects of Friday the 13th. Those cardiac CT scan results that were so terrific a few days ago? The doctor who called me had interpreted the results wrong. I am actually at high risk for a cardiac event and need to go on medication. Scared. Upset. Shocked. Not the best day.
Just sending huge hugs 🤗 🤗 🤗.
Not the best at all when they've told you something different. I can totally understand your reaction. Key positive thing is now you know & they know and something is being done to support you. Look after yourself & we're here for you. X2 -
With changing weigh in day I'm not as focused on Sunday morning for a catch up.

11th 1,477- in dentist chair & on top of bed resting most of day
12th 2968- resting too
13th 6,884
14th 12626- University open day!! My foot is really sore! I was blaming myself for wearing ballet flats instead of trainers but when I got home I have a hole in the sole & a lump on the inside which matches my blister!! Looks like a small sharp stone or piece of glass was stuck in my shoe!!
Been to church today, recorded service for sharing to members & for the preacher as she's almost finished her training so wanted a copy.
Managed to eat the inside of a jacket potato 🥔 mashed up for lunch. 1st proper solid food. On Friday we went to Nando's with my cousin & family, I had halloumi fries starter- all 5 of them- mashed potato side, of which I managed half. I was last one finished & struggled to eat. If it wasn't so damn painful it would be funny. Taking strong pain meds too so feel out of it! Not good. At least I have no more wisdom teeth so this will never happen again.
I have managed to laminate a load of posters for classroom display. Tomorrow I hope to start my work- got about 3 days worth to do.3 -
Looks like a few are struggling or getting stuck. Now is not the time to give up.

Mid month always a challenge so this week take back the control.

Almost forgot: This or that
Thesaurus- because I would use the same word if I didn't look it up sometimes
Coca-cola- it has to be the real thing!
I love yo eat out because it's easier but we do tend to cook at home, because it's healthier & cheaper.
80s- I like some jazz but my workout music & house cleaning music is always 80s- I also behave like it"s then- I think my brain still thinks I'm a teenager/early 20s.
I love my fitbit watch but I also love my Pandora bracelets.
Love blinds- would prefer shutters.
Laptop.
Right handed????
I couldn't juggle or ride a unicycle if my.life depended on it.
🙏 prayer.
Have a great week everyone x1 -

I got up at 6 this morning to head out for my walk. Unfortunately, the sun didn't decide to show up until I was already halfway through my walk. Still pretty, but not as good as with some sun. I saw a deer and some nice birds. Also when I was almost home, there was a field with 14 stork in it! I haven't seen so many together before so that was very fun. Didn't eat a lot, which is fine after yesterday's pizza really.

Hi Guys:
Spent some time today walking in the grocery, taking advantage of the air conditioning. It's been sweltering here in Virginia for a week now and yesterday and today we're having thunderstorms, but it's not clearing out the heat...when the storm ends, the humidity goes right back up. Impossible to breathe outside. I got a mile done indoors today and yesterday did over 7600 steps...not too shabby. My eating this weekend has been ok, but not as good as it could be...gonna work on that this week and try to keep my activity levels up as well. Good to have goals...gonna be a hectic week with all I have to do. Hope ya'll had a nice weekend and that you'll have a great week ahead!

New workout schedule today. It was brutal, but I really like it. I had around 5 hours of sleep because my heart was acting up for 3 hours and it made me unable to sleep (probably nothing serious, don't worry). So I was feeling a little faint in the morning, but after I ate, it mostly went away. I just cleaned the bathroom and bedrooms upstairs because my mom is coming to sleep over for 2 nights on Wednesday. Will do the rest of the house tomorrow.
Something I am excited about: I am getting a fitbit tomorrow! I have been considering this for a while now. I love MFP, but I don't really believe some of the numbers in gives me when it comes to calories burned. I am also very curious about my sleep quality and daily steps. I don't enjoy spending money on myself, and I think this is mostly a fancy gadget. I know I don't need it to lose weight, but I still think it will help. Knowledge is power, right?

I'm a flutist, still play in a local wind symphony and with a semi-pro concert band. Played in the Marines as musician and majored in music in college. I've played jazz, listened to jazz critically, taken jazz improv, a history of jazz class, and worked for the Brubeck Institute. I have a huge appreciation of jazz, from swing to post bob to Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, and Hiromi. Out of the jazz greats always loved Thelonius Monk, Dizzy, Count Basie, Charlie Parker and of course Miles Davis. I enjoy playing latin jazz although I'm not great at it.
I would pick 80's music over jazz any day of the week. 😂😂😂

Work has been crazy with some upcoming deadlines so not able to chat as much in here as I would normally like. I have a surgery coming up so trying to get everything done before that point is just taking up a lot of time. But you all are awesome, keep up the good work and I will check in when I can.4
