Hi Everyone,
Friday was a busy day. Took CJ to school, rosary, Mass, back to Jen’s to take Milo to my house. Home did some cleaning, cooked for spending weekend at work. Walked Milo twice packed car time to go back to Jen’s. Got to Jen’s quick cook fish and scrapple for meals they were already there, picked up CJ then to sleep I went. Up 10 minutes early to get box at Taco Bell which would be 3 meals. got to work on time. Ernestine wanted to talk so after putting stuff in car she came back in and didn’t leave until 1150pm. No time to post from work.
Saturday watched religious online and TV, fill out for GYN forms online for appointment Monday took 15minutes for both. They really want your life history medical wise. did other things online, to car to get sleepover bag, got sofa in lounge ready for sleep, Rose phone call then to sleep I went in. Up put things where they belong I use little fan and radio, took sponge bath, which really wakes me up water get very hot, had dinner which is now 2 meals, did PeopleOne check in now posting here
Ok I finally found and bookmarked this thread thought I had done it before but NOPE and that is where I have been posting. I also posted this on the Winter thread. I will be back reading post to get to know everyone2 -

Good morning, it stayed above 0C last night. The snow is melting fast. I didn't have to shovel any water yesterday from my back parking pad. Today is going to be a housework day and I am am going to try and get to the Running Room when it opens to see about some new walking shoes.1

After a DVR'd premiere Christmas Hallmark movie, hubby and I listened to the sound of Les Brown's big band. We danced! Great date night at home.
We're glad to see another day well into the 40°s. Looking forward to taking a nice walk for a few groceries to also get a little sun on my face. Yay!
Do try to make the best, this day, of whatever the circumstances around you. Hug, hug!
PS Virtual hugs may not be as nice as the real thing, but know the sentiment is real as the support we get from our fellow teammates is immeasurable. I have enjoyed your many updates.3 -
@marg750me ,,YO Marg you are so busy!!! Sounds like fun though!! Hope your appointment tomorrow goes very well. So happy you found us.
@Patti241, they said today it'd be 56 and sunny. But the fog hadn't lifted as of yet right along the coast ,, well at least where I live so it's 43. That's a LONG WAYS from 56 and sunny!!
@Majork29 ,,,, WOOHOO Spring is a coming. Of course most know I am really a WINTER GAL ALL THE WAY!! LOL Good thing since I live in Maine. Nice going on housework, I've got a little bit to do myself. Hope you found new sneakers? I've got some from online (can find on Amazon)
.
So far I really enjoy them. Also ordered shoes.
Hope you found some you enjoy!!
@EjoyEvelyn ,, What a wonderful date night!! ALL couples should do this, all the way on up through. It makes for a stronger, move loving marriage. Hope you enjoyed the sunshine as you went to the store, I am going to head out soon to ours. It's literally in my backyard so it's an easy walk!! When I was well about 2 mins, now it takes 5, but I enjoy it. It's foggy, but that's okay, I love a deep fog as long as I am NOT DRIVING and when driving people really should make sure they're more visible. I love the support here!

My latest book is finally out - https://store.bookbaby.com/book/feral-fables
It was an ebook on Amazon for a few years but clients asked if they could get something where they could make notes, thus the paperback. It is also available on Amazon or Barnes & Nobel, and I think other places, too, but they haven't put up the cover photo yet. I took the photo of the Jackson chameleon on the ebook cover but the paperback has a better (wilder?) picture.5 -
Hi to all....fun to see so many encouraging, posting here & sharing life.
Happy Spring!!

Good Evening Everyone!
Today has seemed extra busy maybe it's my new Fitbit. LoL. Studied, laundry, got dishes finally caught up, went shopping again, and did some exercise but not everything that was planned. Fitbit is helping me remember to get a minimum of 250+ steps every hour for 9 hrs. Tomorrow is going to be another busy day but that's ok because it's healthy and keeps me out of the food.3 -
Hi Everyone
Fell asleep night3 -
I made this dinosaur cupcake cake for my daughter's birthday party. Super happy with how it turned out!

Happy first day of Spring! It is nice the weather is starting to warm up in Minnesota. No spring flowers or shrubs budding here yet. The pictures were beautiful from Canada.
I play Wordle and Wordling! (similar to wordle) daily. I added Quordle tonight as I saw it was mentioned here, I got the 4 words in 9 tries but it was much harder, then 1 word in 6 tries!
I started online WW this past week to help me and look forward to the new Spring challenge. Have a great Monday!

HI All!! Yesterday afternoon I spent time with a friend. We went to the ocean (LOL Less than 2 mins from where I live, and I overlook the harbor) to chat and enjoy. It was foggy which is so cool anyways. I've lived in Maine all of my life with a few exceptions and under 2.5 years in total. I've also lived right on the water for over 20 years. BUT STILL I love all the changing weather ,,, no matter what!

@Dianedoessmiles1 -thx! Right now waiting on the washing machine.2
-
@Dianedoessmiles1 just click your heels and say "there's no place like home" ... hehehehe I do love living by the water myself and have enjoyed most of my life being close to water. I grew up on the shores of Lake Erie, that is the Canadian side, and enjoyed summers when not too hot. I also enjoy being by lots of water ways here in BC too, I just can not imagine living anywhere NOT near water - but sometimes one must. Nice pictures.
I hope everyone is having a marvelous Monday, make it or break it eh !!

Good Evening Everyone!
🌤️. Today has been a busy day. Studying, some exercise, laundry, dishes, took Son for his first orthodontics appointment, and walked home. I am truly enjoying my Fitbit. I love the more accurate step count and the reminders to get up and move. Also am learning about my sleep patterns. Wednesday Son goes back for his scans and pictures of his mouth. Tomorrow is rest and weigh day as well as TOPS. Do I have any clue what will happen with the scale? Nope. Do I care? Not really. I know what I have done this week and I know how I feel.3 -
Checking in, back from a vacation that began just after the last challenge ended. As I understand it, the start date for the Spring Challenge has not yet been announced, but should be announced soon. I think my body has finally healed itself from various crises, so I can begin the rebuilding process. Growing older is an adventure.3

Bookienj,, Do you have your own machine or have to go some place? We have machines on the 2nd, 4th and 6th floors, we CAN have them in our own places, but YO they charge a ridiculous amount though I have insurance! of course I have insurance, but how many times do we hear "My burnt down/flooded etc. and I have no insurance." Being a high rise it only makes sense that they charge so much more. Is your wash all done for at least a day or 2? I grew up in a family of 8 kids, 2 adults my Mom and that thing she married. So laundry was done practically 24/7 it seemed. I learned to truly enjoy it. You have your sweet D's so no doubt yours runs also a lot. Does housework ever get done? Nooooo Not even as I am now a family of 1. Its STILL never done.
@Lindiemaep ,,, I love the mountains even more so than the water. I do love the water, but I am at peace in the mountains. On Sunday as an illustration our speaker asked "What's the first thing you do when you climb a mountain?" As you know it's on Zoom, and my computer screen shows 25 people at once. I of course, looked quickly it was so easy to see who has climbed at least one mountains, we were ALL SMILES and our eyes were sparkling!! You HOLLER "HELLLLLOOOOOOO" And it echo's back! mountains are so much fun!! I've seen your pics looks like you have BOTH!! WOOHOO SO COOL!
"There's no place like home, There's no place like home."
@Csequin2 ,,,, WOW you were so SUPER BUSY!! You've got A LOT done in the day!! I sure hope this works out for your S!! Is he easy there or gets upset? Shoot even at my age I THREATEN THEM EVERY SINGLE TIME to SCREAM!! Of course I do it just to get them laughing. I ask "Can I please scream?" Often before I am even fully in the chair. "Why? are you in pain?" "No, I just want to scare the little kids." They always laugh because they know from my grin , I am just yanking their chain!!
Oh I HOPE YOu take the words, and write them where you can see them often, and be so cool if others do, because WHAT STRENGTH THESE SHOW!! So very very powerful!! So I played with it for you.

Hi Everyone
My day CJ to school off to GYN appointment, left there called Judy asking if she needed food at work. This is a person whom I don’t like somewhat but I knew she had no money or car to get anything and she had been at work since 245pm Saturday sleeping there between shifts she didn’t get off final shift until 230pm. SSOOOOOOOOO she said yes to needing food. Dr’s office is 5 blocks from work which I have to pass to go home. She said she had no money I said I didn’t ask for any. She texted me what she wanted from WAWA SURPRISE SURPRISE bill$18!!!!!!!
Dropped food off to Jen’s to walk Milo then home by 1155am. I did a few things finished minutes for Praesidium meeting at 630pm, Rose call, lunch off to get CJ. Back to Jen’s and found out I left paperwork for Curia at home NOT NICE!!! Started religious Rose, Gay phone calls. Back to religious and Jen came home OH WELL!!! I was able to finish religious. Off to meeting. Home by 805 on 3rd call from Rose she called during meeting. Late light dinner Gay call Checking as to why I didn’t come by. Vicky then Dee called there went 75 minutes. Next Kaleb oldest grandson called needed help to get tires for his car. Sent money played a few hands of spider solitaire then thought time to do all checkins
@ RevivingRachel – cute nice job
@ Mango1960 – I wish I had the time to try Wordle maybe in a couple of months
@ Lessennan – great exercise day
Ok can’t do all time for sleep
Night
After the challenge starts I will explain to the newbie's about the religious

Hello Everyone!
I am slowly trying to get some balance in my life. Things have been absolutely crazy lately and I need to breathe deep. On the positive side, spring is so exciting. Although the ground is not warm enough to work with at this point, I have been outside a lot and the plants that I have started indoors are doing great. It was in the 60s yesterday and my DH and I took a good walk on a beautiful nearby trail. That is just what I needed. I only got through some posts and I hope to catch-up more. Have a wonderful day everyone!!
@Dianedoessmiles1- Thank you for the warm, welcome! Things are not really settling down much, but I am trying to carve out more time for myself. I love your shoe choices. The second one looks attractive, supportive, and comfy. I have so much trouble finding shoes that fit and I have to order online. There is a town a few hours from here. Mt. Horeb, that is famous for its trolls. My husband sometimes jokes that they may have a shoe store with shoes for me…lol. I love changing weather too! I must visit Maine someday. I am glad you had a good visit with your friend.
@lavalily - I imagine that it is wonderful to live in Hawaii. It is on my “must visit” list. Congratulations on your book!
@aalley5 - So happy that the migraine meds are working. Migraines are the worst. I have few of them now, but I did for years. I LOVE the images that you post!
@CSEGUIN2 - I am glad that you are enjoying the fitbit. My “250” reminders often catch me when I really cannot get up for a short walk. It sounds like that is working great for you. You have inspired me. Maybe I will try to pay more attention to that part.
@RevivingRachel - Your dinosaur looks wonderful!
@Mango1960 - I live in Wisconsin and the last two days have been wonderful. I cannot wait to get into the garden more. Spring is always so exciting and full of promise. I am considering online WW too. Let us know how it goes.
@Lessennan - Wishing you a great week. I am constantly creating schedules and then something takes me off track. They do help though. At least I see where my time goes…lol
@macrat12 I get so excited when the temperatures hit the 50s and 60s. My husband says I should have become a “weatherperson”. Of course, he also says that I should have taken up farming since I spend so much time in the garden. I love your quote today. I have been working to find the good because it can be overshadowed by everything else.
@LindieMaeP My DH grew up by the ocean and misses it so much. I agree that being near water is wonderful.
@marg750me It is nice to see you! You are so busy. I do not know how you do it. I guess I am too since I cannot seem to find time to read or play piano. I never finish my to do list. I hope that you have a good week
Enjoy your Tuesday!
Donna

Good morning, it is starting to get more spring like her in Edmonton. I have not been good the last few days, over eating and not getting my walking or exercise in. The good news is that I continued to track my food and blog. Today is a work day for me, so I will get more steps in. Later today hubby and I have an appointment at the bank to sign some papers.2

@bookieNJ thanks for the nerdle idea. My daughter loves math puzzles. I miss the Spark diet suggestions where I think you could find a low sodium diet.
@Retired_Sue I love having little visitors too. I get 3/4 on quordle
@LindieMaeP Thanks for the info about New Balance. Hubby wears size 14 so he orders online but I know he would like to go into a store, so we'll try it.
Word Archive gives you more wordles https://www.devangthakkar.com/wordle_archive/?2362 -
@bookieNJ Have you got started with the DASH diet? I miss the Spark diet suggestions on the nutrition tracking page.
@CSEGUIN2 I have to be well rested to exercise too, otherwise I feel like I am being tortured. What new things have you learned in the course?
@Dianedoessmiles1 How do you get "oh it's a great day for cleaning" days? I need an inspiration to launch spring cleaning.
@Grannysue91 Yes the in between challenges are helpful.
@Lessennan You sound so ready to start the challenge!
@macrat12 How long have you had the outside cat? What it's name? I love this - Being more active will increase your energy levels and make you feel amazing!
@Patti241 Temperatures in the 80s would be a heat wave here.
@skaniski26 Did you pick a team?
@sunrisedancer1 When I lived in Northern Alberta in the Borealis Forest the sand cranes nested there. For a long time they were a protected species.
I had Chunky Monkey for breakfast - overnight oats. I substituted blueberries for bananas.
Today I will get to the gym for sure! Yes plz hold me to it!
