Good Evening Everyone!
Thanks for all the support!
Rain most of the day. But walked to do some shopping. Felt a little better today. Work went well. Still have to make taco dip for my friends after work. My Son is here for the weekend.4 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all having a good morning. Today is New Year's Eve and I am looking forward to celebrating it this year. Usually I just go to bed early but this year I have something to celebrate. My Fiance. I look forward to being with him for the rest of my life. I want to grow old with him.
@majork29 - I am excited for 2023, but likewise it is hard to think that it is almost here. I get married in June 2023.
@dmsl977 - That is great that you are working on all of that. I am sure you will get there and with all the new stuff it will be great. I should get some more workout clothing.
@LindieMaeP - It is pretty nice outside. It will I know not stay that way. So we will eventually be colder and wetter outside.
Well it is time to get some food. I hope you all have a great day.

I have worked in HR for years and we always lay off workers when we take over a business and the rehire them. It is so that they sign all our onboarding paperwork, adn that everyone starts the same way, that way we don't get we a clause in the work agreement that we want. Example, employee X gets to have the same vacation time every year... I see this one all the time. It may seem harsh but it is paperwork for the most part every current employee that is laid off gets rehired. Terms of employment may change and there is a probationary period again.3 -

Good morning from a colder Edmonton, it is -16C this morning. Puppy of course got me up at 5am to play, did you know that 5am is a great time to play?? I didn't know this until recently. Good thing that i am a morning person, but 5 is a little early. Oh well, I am making my new schedule for the month and think that I will make 5 my start time.
I have been working on getting some goals written down for the year, they are still a work in progress. I have been trying to think about where i want to be a year from now.3 -

good morning everyone! it is a mostly rainy and mild day here today. my daughter says hi. she is working at her part time job today. both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! i went for a short run earlier this morning and i really enjoyed it. i went for a walk and i feel great! i will definitely be doing some dancing later on. later on today here, the transit will be free to use. from about 7pm to at least 3am, there is no charge to use the transit here today. even the Go transit is free to ride here from the same time i mentioned above. even where my parents live, the local transit there is free from about 7 pm to about 2 am. once a year, on new year's eve, transit is free in the evening hours, so everyone taking transit can get home safely from any new year's eve celebrations. this has been going on for quite a few years now. happy new year's eve, everyone! take care and stay safe.2

Good morning! I am taking an easy day today to recoup from this week. Well as easy as my 2 German Shepherds, plus my son's German and Aussie Shepherds that I'm puppysitting, will allow. Lol @tslose I too am looking forward to 2023. The last couple have been good professionally, but tough in so many other ways. I'm ready to make my health and happiness a priority again.4

Good morning everyone, hope you all are going to slide into 2023 happy,healthy, safe and satisfied in a good way. I intend to spend time today to make a schedule for resistance training - just 5 - 10 minutes a day to get used to it and as it grows on me let the time go longer on it's own. I will commit to the 5-10 and after that it's a freebee so to speak. I will continue with my normal exercise as well as my health allows. Other then that I just plan on watching movies later today after some volunteer work I do with my congregation.
@Dianedoessmiles1 I looked at this week's bible reading and decided to watch the Josia movie as it goes hand in hand so to speak. How are you doing? How is Izzy doing ? I am debating getting another cat for Gene he's starting to work over time again and last time he did that it got out of control and he wound up in hospital. He's working 11 to 7 today I said good i will exercise in the living room without disturbing you. Transit is free today at some point - but not sure all day or not I'll tell him to check ...
@majork29 been there to your city - the Edmonton Mall was interesting but too big for me LOL Hope you figure out your goals ok. I know where I wanna be!
@tslose woohooo last day of the year, I am happy to say good bye to 2022 and happy to see what 2023 will bring. Health wise my over all goal is to get to 150 lbs but I don't intend to get there over night, so if I can meet the 5% challenges that will help immensely. In the end, no matter what, I will have learnt something along the way and that makes us all winners !!
@dms1977 I am not cooking today, that's my easy day - no cooking - it's all cooked and I just have to heat and eat lol Enjoy your time with your pups !!
@Tabatha_Cain you have a lot to look forward to in 2023 with your wedding and all !! Enjoy your evening!
@everyone have a good morning and afternoon - stay safe, healthy and wise !!

I pray that 2023 will be a year of reaching a few goals, of joy no matter what, and of having love in our hearts!

Good afternoon, I am heading out to Safeway shortly before any rain appears on the horizon - I want to pick up a couple of items and get my walk and steps in, good way to do so. I don't make new years resolutions. I do set goals but do not need a new year to do so. I keep them in front of me all the time so I can work on them. The small goals I do lead to big results so I am happy about that. I want to loose 5% of my weight on this challenge, I have yet to do that so keep trying. I want to also be more agile so I will be looking at ways to build that as well. And as long as I keep particapating in these challenges, come what may, I am already a winnah in my mind. I will blog more about my goals later. May you all have peace!2
-
@LindieMaeP,,I agree...as long as ya keep trying ..keep moving..focus and refocus..you're a winnah!! We can do this..Just look how far we have come and there are miles left to travel!!
I am stuck in a clichés kinda mood for some reason..To be your best- do your bestdon't worry about the rest! How many would love to be able to do what you do everyday and can't..count your blessings. Thus is my mind circling today!!
I think I need a break and a cuppa..so off I go.
Oh no...yep one more!!

@KatieCondy1 are you sure those aren't the golden arches on that there poster tryign to bleed through??? LOLOLOL I so agree with it but then I saw that and thought - golden arches. You know I am not far from MickyDees and I could go for a walk to there and back but am not interested. I just did a walk to safeway, they had the medium sized frozen pizza on sale for 2.99 and Gene and I like that brand, plus I always add more - well not coleslaw that goes on the side LOL I also got some sweet potato fries I can do in the air fryer because I was thinking chili fries for dinner - well there's a part of me that is still a junk food junkie so I try to do it healthier and get the same results. ( I am Irish, does that count ?? ) lol I also picked up a much larger spaghetti squash to do another casserole this one will have bacon bits in it - I will cook that one next week when it can bake longer.
For the new challenge in the new year I want to add some new goals and do so in a way that won't cramp my current style - can't have a gurl cramped ya know ... I am looking forward to the new challenge and what can be accomplished.
I had what I thought was an amazing thing to blog about last night while going to sleep and then this morning I canna remember a thing about it.. it has aluded me ... it will come back again, I just did not want to get up and write it all down... such is the life at times.

BUSY BUSY CHAT!!! @Katiecondy1 ,,, LOL IMPRESSED by the "WINNAH!" very much so!!
Bit by bit, we'll get therah!!
@Lindiemaep ,,,, Today another friend down the street is out. They're telling her not til Tuesday!! YO!! LOL on the iphone we know I feel about them. Ahhhh love my Samsung though. That's okay it's why variety is the spice of life. We will go soon to look at kitties again. Monday I'll be busy , Tuesday I have a Dr appointment followed by 2 MRIs so maybe Weds or Thurs we can. THe movie is a great one! Thought of it as I've been reading, of course have a little bit left before Tuesday. Awwww Izzy LOL POOR IZZY kitty!! I had my GGS here on Weds so she's STILL tired. They did play some together she's so jealous of him when he's here, yet she's willing to share my lap with him. There are so many kitties needing a home, I hope you both get one.
SORRY to not give everyone a personal reply. This woman is also quite tired. It's been a cloudy dreary day, with foolish temps near 50 and that'll continue until Thurs. WOW we've only had one SMALL SNOW STORM of 4"s. ONE!! I may have to relocate to MinnieSNOWDA!

Happy New Year to all!2

Good morning and Happy New Year's!! I'm coming to terms with the sound of 2023. Not sure how it isn't 1999, but time marches forward no matter how we feel. I have done a reset of my account. I ended the year with a net gain in weight. I was upset with myself last week but now I am determined that this is the year that I finally make permanent changes.
Today I weigh in at 288, that is the highest I have been in a few years. I want to be around 125-135 on paper that means just over 1 pound a week, which should be completely doable.

Good morning2

Good morning everyone, I hope you all got through the night safe and sound and are enjoying or have enjoyed a nice breakfast - I'll be having mine shortly. It's a wonderful day in the neighbourhood so much to look forward to and to accomplish on this next challenge that we take 1 week at a time and see what we can do. There is no such thing as failure when one is learning new things to help them along. I am starting this challenge at 207.4 or course on Saturday I will put the official start weight - it's up from where I wanted to be but at least it is a start and I can go from there. I want to reach 199 on this challenge we will see how it goes and how my body will respond, well my mind too cause sometimes my mind fools me !! I always feel that weight will fluctuate and it has since I weigh in on WED and SAT too. I like to see how I am doing mid week. I will be focusing in on fiber - seems I have not been getting enough, and you would think it would be easy to get in each meal - nada !!! I will also be doing resistance training, firming up muscles slowly and go from there. I wish you all well with your plans for this challenge - you can do what you aim to do!! Have a wonderful day all !!

@tslose ,, GOOD day!! WELCOME to the chat!! How was your day?
@Macrat12,, HI Sarah!! What did you do today?
@Majork29,,, what I do now is to just set a very reasonable goal for myself per challenge. The 8 weeks wrapping my head around it is just easier. Since my body is such a brat (but it's the only 1 I have and so I do love and cherish it, but it IS A BRAT! LOL) with smaller goals if I need to reset I can.
@Patti241 did you watch the ball drop? I did not. I was up, but LOLOL didn't watch. It's a new year, but that's about it in my wee mind. We'll see what it brings.
@LIndiemaep,,, Awwwww CUTE GIF!! TY TY TY TY!! I find fiber to NOT be at all easy, but we know my view towards freggies which has something to do with that! Keep in mind also fiber is in whole bread (weirdly for a junk food person I LOVE a very fiber bread!) cereal (ALSO usually LOVE) and I think I'll go back to some of them. Yeah adding that to my phone grocery list (TY TY TY TY!) One day at a time. I too am adding ST more so. I want my body to behave better so I have to treat it accordingly (NOT the freggie though).
LOL If anyone is watching the Packers game this is something to to see. Its now the 4th quarter and it's 3 Vikings and 34 Packers. Ohhhh I have a friend from Wisconsin who though she lives on the other side of the city I CAN HEAR HER!! (Lolol). BUT I DID SO EARLIER when the Pats played the Dolphins. Hmmm maybe ,, nah ,, am I sorry @Catwmncat? NOPE!2 -
A New Year.. A New Challenge..every day is a chance at a new success. Today has been a quiet one. As the days begin part of my years promise to me is to start each day finding a reason to give thanks..then at the end of the day check to see if I did in fact get thru the day with that foremost in my mind. I love the idea of writing down daily at least one good thing that happened that day, put in a jar ..then at years end review . Now to find a spot to put that jar so I don't loose it.
Headed in to make some supper for the crew..wishing each and everyone an awesome year .

@Dianedoessmiles1 hahahaha it should have said LINDIE not DIANE but I am ok with it saying DIANE!! Fiber 1 cerial gives a lot of fiber and I add it to my yogurt every morning along with flax seed, cinnamon, and of course blueberries - 1 serving is 1/3 cup that is 11 fiber but I don't use a full serving as I only need 5 fiber per meal. Peas are next on the venue to give fiber but I do the summer peas or baby peas and then pears if you like fruit give a good amount of fiber so sometimes it comes from veggies and sometimes fruit. I've bought them for individual serving sizes in packages but have not been able to find them lately so a small box will last me a month and it costs me 7.00 a box !! Gone up in price indeed ! WHO DAT !?!? I don't do footie too violent for my taste , I stay away from violent sports. Still looking for a good fiber bread, but really only need 5 grams a meal so should be ok. See my blog if you have time and are feeling up to it. I went out today with a couple from my KH and we had a good time and discussed many spirtiual things!
@katiecondy1 nice idea to do that. I give thanks many times a day, there is so much I am thankful for. Good food, good times, good friends, yup all is good and I am thankful for them. I hope you blog at the end of the year what you learnt about your jar contents!!
I am having a light dinner tonight, just a slice of pizza and coleslaw - I went out for lunch and had fish and chips so still full from that ! I gave the recliner to my sister and she came and got it while I was out. I hope she is happy with it. I know her son Michael liked it. I rearranged the living room this morning and got the 50+ y.o. envovled, he was not happy but did some vaccumming and I washed the floor after the carpet was rolled up, it's being trashed time for it to go and he needs to figure out what is going to the dump so I can pay the fee - I might get my sister to take it, it's amazing what she can pack in her car! Anyway I asked him where he wanted the couch and he put it right back where it was !! Then he put the coffee hutch and ice chests back too same place... ok he's not ready for change... but at least I got the floor washed eh !! I still have to get some steps in so I will do that after dinner.2 -
Good Evening Everyone!
Happy New Year!
Yesterday was a very long day. Prepared my taco dip for my friends New Year's. Had to work in the afternoon and then partied till Midnight with friends, Hubby and Son. Hehe he got to see his Mom actually have fun and party. The looks he gave me were definitely the best. It was great seeing him actually socializing with people he didn't know. I hope I can give him more opportunities like that maybe he'll make some friends he can hang out with eventually. Granted he was the youngest one there. Most are older than me.
Anyways today I obviously slept in. Sent my Son home so he could get ready for a gathering he was going to with other family members. Then got ready for work. I am not used to a coworker who doesn't do their job. As my weekday coworker has definitely been stepping up. The weekend one moves slow, she doesn't get half of what the weekday one does. My friend/manager got a text from me about what she will find when she gets to work in the morning. Dishes that should have been done before we left. I would have done them but I was doing other cleaning and don't quite feel comfortable getting my wrist that wet yet. Today is the first day I showered with out it covered and definitely wasn't the best feeling. The skin is still very new and very pink. I even keep it wrapped most of the time so I don't damage it.1 -
Good Evening, All! The first day of the New Year is almost at an end. The warm weather in this part of the world has been a gift. Billie and I have been taking an hour walk each day. She's been staying out of trouble.
Glad to see so many on the chat!
Tomorrow's word is FAITH.
And I learned a new trick with my phone camera:

Good morning, I got my Christmas tree taken apart yesterday and a few other things done. Of course, not as much done as I wanted but a good start. I got out for a walk with Farley yesterday, he is really starting to love his walks. Which is good.
Today is my last day off until I leave for Mexico on the 14th. I work straight through until the evening of the 13th. So, I have decided that I will putter around the house today, take the puppy for another walk and the work on finishing the afghan that I am doing for a friend. It is almost completed. The bonus is that if I am working on the afghan while watching TV I can't eat!! (snack).
