Hello from cold and windy Edmonton Alberta. We are starting the day at a nice brisk -11C, but the sun came up just after 7 this morning so things are looking up. I saw that this weekend we are to go above Zero!! I'm so ready for spring.2

@Dianedoessmiles1 -your scale sounds great. My electric one is back! Just needed. Batteries. Yup we won’t get results for about 10 more days. I think she was in shock more than anything-that and we were rushing to dance. Her schedule makes life tricky but we do it because she loves it.2

@ LindieMaeP It isn't that hot here. Today we had a low of 71 and a high of 85 and if you live at even 500-1000 feet above sea level, it is cooler still. At 5000 feet here it gets down to 40s and those who have a home at that elevation just love it. I lived at 2000 feet for about 10 years but I like the warmer climate of the coastal areas. We have all but one of the climate zones on my island. The real problem that many people don't like is the humidity.3

Thanks for the information, I think in a couple of years I might want to visit so more information is always good.
@Dianedoessmiles1 these pictures are for you - not only do they have snow in them, they also have buildings. The first one is the ugliest building and I shake my head wondering why they allowed it is it so out of scene !!!
There's still some snow on the mountains, but I don't go that way anyway - the pictures were taken from the bus I was on heading down town to join up with my granddaughter Charise for dinner - we went to Cactus Club and she really enjoyed it, so did I ! Afterwards we went to Indego and I was able to find 2 items I was looking for one is Memory by Lisa Geneva - she's a neurologist and has written several books. A neighbour of mine got her copy of the book from the local library and exclaimed it was a good book. Now I just have to find time to read it lol
Hope everyone is having a wonderful day and enjoying what you can. We have sun today and then possibly snow tomorrow but most likely rain.

@Lindiemaep ,,,,Oh PA is so much fun!! Though I've not been to the Good and Plenty Restaurant, but it sounds like good!!! @Ceriusly1 ,, I imagine "Its good with plenty" of food. Can't go wrong with that!! We were in Lancaster also, several times over the years. We did of course one trip stop in Hershey and OHHHH YUMMY!! We did take the tour of the candy place, you know what? On that trip there were 8 of us, and I do not at all recall anything, but SMILES!! TY TY TY TY Hershey's!! HAHAHAHA!!! We went crazy in the discount store. That whole area just smells so SWEET!!
@Lavalily ,,, OH NEAT that you aren't bothered in general by them!! Nice at the 71 to 85!! UGH on the humidity that about does me in, but yeah if you live on the water, you're going to have humidity. Your area sounds lovely.
@Catwmncat ,,, I plan on using this feature to see how I am doing daily!! COOL huh?
@Cseguin2 ,,, sometimes it's nice to lay down and enjoy being with your love one. Actually precious time without others around. Hmmm I had a Mario brothers on one gaming system, but I do not remember if it's the Wii or not, don't think so, think it was my playstation???? But I got rid of that one when the kids became adults, but I DO have my WII. I should take that out and do some golfing etc, LOL I'm HORRIBLE at the baseball, and yet, it makes me laugh. However I am GREAT at bowling. ENJOY the books!!! The neat thing about break is the flexibility of it. Though I am TRYING to hold to as much of my routine as possible. WAHHHH my favorite neighborhood ice cream place HAS opened! LOL!! But I can get a small and that's totally okay. They have a non dairy, non sugar that is AMAZING though I'd of NEVER THOUGHT it would be, it is for under 100 calories for the smallest which I am fine with.
@Lessenan,,, WOOHOO Hey HI!! WELCOME!! Great job doing your walk!! Glad it's a nice day, it is here too. LOL A lady stopped me today "Do you don't have a coat on.!" I had to giggle I hear that A LOT!! But it's SUNNY and 47 so why would I? You can actually feel the warmth of the sun.
@Mjw205 ,, HI WELCOME to the 2022 Spring 5% Challenge!!! TOPS If I'm right is Takes Off Pounds Sensibly, but hopefully @Cseguin2 will tell you more.
@Majork29 ,,, Brrrr THAT IS COLD!! In F it's 12, and yes that's cold especially now,,,,, though we aren't much warmer on some mornings, but it warms up. Hopefully the snow is about ready to leave your area in the next month? I am on the Positively Strong 4 Life team, as is another leader @Cheriridell who also lives in Edmonton! WELCOME!
@BookieNJ, glad all it needed was a battery!! YEAH YEAH!! Indeed at 13 ,, that'd be so freaky!! It was in my 30's!! And than in my 60s when it decided ,, my body to just go CRAZY it was surprising ,,at first. Now I've adjusted to it, and it's routine. LOL A male friend had a spot frozen it was basal cell. He cried in TEARS "I AM DYING!!" Since he's a little bit emotional I knew that probably wasn't it, but I understood his fear. He's fine now. Hopefully hers will be non cancerous.
@Lindiemaep ,,, That's kinda a COOL and FUNKY building!!! Is it condo's? Or hopefully NOT owned by a bank,,, LOL We have so many banks here, I think we have MORE banks than people!! Those mountains are so PRETTY!! SO VERY PRETTY!! Do you ever go up and climb any of them? Or walk on some of the paths? I imagine they're pretty!! So glad you and your GD had a great time!! Yummy on enjoying the food and finding the book you wanted!!
On my way out soon to meet up with a few friends, one has no clue I am coming it's a surprise LOL if Theresa does not tell her!! I have a few mins, I'll pop around MFP for a few more before I go.

Good Evening Everyone!
For me TOPS Day is the day I go to my TOPS meetings.
Today has been a good day so far. Very productive. Exercise, laundry, dishes, and almost completed the challenge I am working on. Also played a little Mario Galaxy and cards with Hubby. Might try working on the afghan that I am trying to do for my cousin's baby. Would like to have it done by Easter for when they visit but we'll see since it's barely started.1 -
@LindieMaeP I think the building in the first picture is cool, not ugly!2
-
it is a mostly cloudy day here today, with some snow on and off. my daughter says hello to everyone. i have been for a walk and i feel great! my daughter has a week off school next week. she will be working for two of those days. both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! i will be doing some dancing after supper today. have a great day, everyone! take care and stay safe.1

Good Evening Everyone!
Today was snowy but most has already melted. Today was a very productive day. Exercises, dishes, laundry, started writing about myself, cleaned for client, ran some errands after work and played Mario Galaxy for about half hour. To ight will be reading and crafting. My next lesson for my course came today so will start that tomorrow probably. Also going to my sister's to sort through Mom's jewelry, and visit with my friend tomorrow.1 -
@Cseguin2 ,, Sneaking my 3 dishes over to your house, throwing in 2 days of laundry, hmmmm how I sneak in the vacuuming? LOL CONGRATS on getting so much done!! So cool you and H enjoy being together playing games etc!! Tomorrow it's mostly snow for the majority of Maine, the mountains will get 8 to 12"s, but here in Southern Coastal Maine? MAYBE 2"s ,,,,, OH WELL!! It's starting to get warmer, so I just have to go with it!!
@Catwmncat and @Lindiemaep ,,, I AGREE it's a fun looking building. It's AMAZING the ones they build. I watched one day a documentary of the skinniest building in NYC being built! It was AMAZING!! There was a historical site underneath the building part they were doing, so they had to preserve it. After they did so, they built up.2 -
It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring.....remember that little ditty we used to sing? Well, all 3 things are happening here right now!

Good Evening Everyone!
Today has been an off day. But that's ok. Got some studying done, went to my sister's to go through Mom's jewelry, and some exercise. Also visited with my friend who lost her husband. She invited us over for his birthday to celebrate him which is on Wednesday. She is also working on a celebration of life for him as he didn't want a funeral. Tomorrow will be a more normal day hopefully.2 -
Good morning everyone2

I've signed up for a dance/fitness class that starts this Thursday. I'm excited/nervous for it to begin. I am so out of shape right now and I am a little worried it is going to be full of in shape people who know what they are doing and I am going to feel like an idiot as I struggle to keep up. Wish me luck!3
-
@RevivingRachel Yay you! It's normal to be excited/nervous when starting something new but if we never venture out we limit ourselves and our journey. Prayers for you as you work toward becoming your best self.
PS: I love the name! My Mom's name is Rachel. She's 87. I'm going to borrow your Reviving Rachel for her.1 -

Good Evening Everyone!
Snowed quite a bit today but is already mostly gone. But it's freezing out. Today was a very productive day! Lots of exercise, chores, phone calls, multiple other tasks, and played cards with Hubby. Trying to stay busy so I don't eat when not hungry. Found out that my Labor Day weekend is a go! Woohoo Harrow Fair here I come!1 -

@CSEQUIN2 that is right it's going to be Harrow Fair time soon - my family is very invovled in that fair - They all contribute from baking to artsie stuff and garden stuff too. I know my neice Sarah gets quite excited for that fair - I never cared for it, but then I never liked crowds anyway. Do you do anything at the fair such as baking, or other stuff ? If your familiar with the old Pike Rd off Howard Ave going towards Amherstburg, you'll pass my brother's place, Andy Capp - he's been there for over 30 years ! I too have to keep busy so I do not eat, and today has been a somewhat grazing day but I am about to put a stop to that !! Dinner will be same as last night and that should be it for the day. I try not to have anything after 7 PM ...
Hope everyone is having a productive Sunday. I got an airfryer and my son has been using it non stop, so happy he likes using it, he's making meals for himself not just popcorn !!2 -
Hi everyone! Super cold day here but we didn’t care! Went to watch my daughter in st Patrick’s day parade! Tiny high school, tiny band we don’t care!2
-
@Cseguin2 ,,, So sorry its not a great day. I hope you were able to get some jewelry you can enjoy. So sorry about your friends H, my cousins H passed away a few days ago, covid. The hurt is there for all. I like the celebration of life. Hope tomorrow will be better.
@Patti241 ,,, HI Patti!! Hope it was sunny today. It was here!
@RevivingRachel ,, I had taken a Zumba class (LOL okay it's been awhile!) I told that to a lady who was also waiting for the class to start that day. She went all the time. She told me "Oh, don't worry! When we see you newbies coming in, it reminds of us of where we started. Please keep coming!!! You'll learn." I did learn quickly over the weeks, we invited a bunch of people to join us for the class and though I still felt in the "awkward stage "Soon as it started I heard "Diane you are so GOOD at this!" And you will reach this point. My best advice is go and just have FUN!!! Have you been a gym? When I was going and I'd see someone come in who was new, often wanting to lose weight, I was CHEERING THEM ON!!! Over 99% of us were!! So ENJOY!!! ENJOY!!! Expect to not get it, be frustrated it, but no do quit!!
@Lindiemaep ,,,, OH COOl that your S is using the air fryer!! I totally LOVE mine!!
@BookieNJ,, I agree it was cold out!! WELL I only saw that from the inside.2 -
Sorry for all you folk where it’s still snowy and cold. Just evicted the overwintering plants from my greenhouse3
