    Good morning everyone I hope your day is going well. The sun is playing hide and seek with the clouds and the air is chillin' cold. I went out this morning to safeway and got some stuff and walked there and home and I bought only what I went for - ok I bought one more thing, 4 rotisary chicken legs I can freeze for meals later in the week. I do need to go get some more beef though and make some beef dishes. I almost have all my steps in from that walk !!
    @Dianedoessmiles1 Kartmen howled like crazy going into the carriage but once outside, he calmed down for a while and enjoyed the walk - I did not do it too often and of course he went to the vet in it as well. Sadly we had to put him down when he developed a blood clot in his hind legs and the vet said they could desolve it but he would never be the same, so we let him go to sleep. It was a hard decision to make then too and took months to get over it, time heals and will for Amigo as well. That's the part of owning a cat Gene does not want to deal with. I understand. I hope things are going well with Izzy and Oscar and yes good plan for when you have to go into hospital for any length of time. They will keep each other company even though they are independant little things. I understand the long drive for the events - I don't relish it either but at least I do not have to walk there, I am sure you understand that... any news from the doctor about your tests ?
    @Tabatha_Cain I sure hope Joe is feeling better and is able to deal - stress can be beneficial at times but the wrong stress ie work stress is not beneficial - it's too bad - I hope you both can find ways to deal with the stress.
    @Catwmncat you look fabulous no matter what you wear or do not wear - I hope you had a good evening and great tht you got to meet a member of the team. Continue to care for yourself and share your food !! LOL to your first love, thought I was the only one who felt that way about food, it's not the enemy!!!
    Time to skidaddle outta here, ya'll have a great day and enjoy what ever you have planned.

    @ALL THANKS!! I did read though the chat. Tonight I am going to be busy for the In Between Challenge and it'll take a bit of time, plus I've not eaten yet (Its just after 7) supper, and I would like to get in another 35 mins of exercise (I have in 55, I'd like 35 more for 90,,, I am trying to earn the SUPER BADGE on our team that gives them for doing at least 90 or more minutes of exercise or 5 days a week or more. SO I am not slacking off, but hehehehe you knew that. Izzy does have the cold Oscar brought in, so she's resting on her own today and last night. I HOPE she feels better fast, it's not a bad cold and tonight she almost came out to see him, but said "NAHHHH!!" AND BACK in she went. I did giggle. I'm heading into the bedroom to use my laptop there and spend one on one with her.

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Yesterday was rest, weigh and TOPS day. Gained another pound. Extremely frustrated but know if I keep doing the right things and improve on others it will eventually turn around. Took the rest part literally. Did get a small walk in at the mall getting Hubby's gift. I also used the holiday as a cover to eat my feelings. Hubby went out to get my gift after lunch. He came home with 6 long stem red roses and an Amazon gift card. He also informed me that something would be delivered the next day.

    Today I completed all my workouts, did dishes and laundry, and also studied. Did some organizing and also played Wii sports with Hubby. My delivery came and it is a beautiful flower as arrangement. I feel very loved and special this year.

    I tried to post the pictures of the flowers but it wouldn't work today.

    Good Evening, all ~

    This is one of those days where I'm glad that none of my plans were written in stone. Got a phone call to say that one of our guests needed to release her pet who had leukemia. We are fortunate that we know a vet who specializes in putting down pets at your residence. We all gathered to say goodbye to Ben and had a touching service in gratitude to such a sweet little dog. Afterwards we gathered and had lunch that brought some healing to the day.

    Later I went to the west side of the property and picked up branches and took out two rather large wild multifloras. The mule was quite full when I took the brush to the ravine. Then Billie got two walks today since I am not letting her run wild on that foot. I think I will sleep tonight.

    The beautiful weather of 60 degrees will disappear tomorrow and tumble into the 20's. Brrrrrrr.

    Confession time: I ate a lot of the wrong things but didn't overeat. When I am having feelings, my cravings for sweets goes up.

    Tomorrow's word is healing. (That seems to come up a lot.)

    So glad to hear that some of you enjoyed your Valentine's Day! Enjoyed all the posts--except hearing that Oscar brought a cold home to share with Izzy 😞. Have a great Purrsday!

    Good Morning Airport Friend:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today I again work both jobs. I am hoping it will be a good day. I learned last night how to do a soft serve cone. Lets just say I need lots of practice.

    @LindieMaeP - We are working on the stress. I am sure we can get it taken care of.
    @Dianedoessmiles1 - I hope you are able to get everything done.
    @CSEGUIN2 - That is great. Those gifts are amazing. It is ok that you ate some feelings. I do it too.
    @NovemberGail - I get the need for sweets. I t just happens. I really need those sweets sometimes.

    Well it is time to get ready for work. I hope you all have a great day

    Wednesdays Eats
    Fast Breaker ~ Soup and a Buffalo Chicken Blue Cheese Sammie on Dave's Thin Good Seed.
    Dinner ~ Baked Chicken Thigh, Sweet Potato and Squash w/ Onions.
    Dessert ~ Coffee Chocolate Chip Bar and a Sea Salt Chocolate Covered Caramel.
    @LindieMaeP thank you for the kind words but I'm not so sure many would think I look fabulous in what I don't wear.🤣😂
    @NovemberGail Such a blessing that you all were able to be there for the guest when she needed to be surrounded with love. I tend to gravitate to the sweets whenever the emotions hit as well and its a constand battle right now. The picture you posted reminded me of a heart with a spot that needed to be healed.

    Good morning, just finished scarfing down breakfast - well almost lol it was the usual breakfast - maybe tomorrow will be different and a picture will follow. Nothing spectacular to do today other then exercise and cleaning and maybe a few laps to the mailbox downstairs and back, sometimes I do it just for the steps... it all helps...
    @Tabatha_Cain hope both shifts go well for you - soft ice cream, you'll be a pro before you know it... just don't eat your mistakes LOL 🙄😉😂
    @Catwmncat still cannot get Dave's bread these days - oh oh oh wish I could miss it but life goes on - I had chicken last night too but no sweet potato - you know CAT you would look fabulous in a potato sack cause you would KNOW how to wear it !! BUT at my age I look better with clothes ON then OFF !!! so ON they stay LOLOLOL 😉😂😂
    Hey everyone!
    @melissaaridgeway hello hello and welcome !! How you doing ? lol
    @NovemberGail I am sure that cleaning helped with the saddness of the day - it is so hard to loose a furbaby - or any loved one....
    @everyone, do have a wonderful day on this PURSDAY !! and have fun - you can do it !!!

    @Tabatha_Cain I am an Ice Cream Junkie and vanilla soft serve is my all time favorite.🍦😋 I'll be happy to eat all your practice mistakes, but hopefully you are a fast learner, my waist is quite large enough already.😂 Hope you had a great day!
    @LindieMaeP Your so funny... I'm pretty sure we are very close in age and I look better with clothes on as well!

    @Cseguin2,,, So sorry about the gain. Have you reset your tracker in the past month? Or gone to https://www.calculator.net/calorie-calculator.html ? Life changes, we change, perhaps what had worked in the past worked very very well, but may not be now. By redoing our stats and following what it suggests though we may not wish to do so, can make a difference. Around emotions, OH MAN it seems ALL of us are going through so much. Oh so very very much then ever before. I do encourage actually everyone or most everyone to see if perhaps talking to a counselor could help. Many of us are not as healthy as we were, or our circumstances in life have changed (some of us drastically) etc. Etc. Right now Connie work and where what you can find is a stressor. I know our unemployment office has job counselors who know not just of jobs, but if you'd like further training, how you can get that often WITHOUT COST!! The job of your dreams may just literally around the corner!! If you desire that. If my health was better though I am not at all young, I'd seriously consider going to school for certification to work with children in elementary school. I LOVED working in the classroom, my pay would of been higher. There are options to help us deal with stress. Its such a hard time in our history.
    @Patti241,,, did you all hit the 60s today? We are close to it. Hmmm it's FEBURARY!!! OR it's SUPPOSED to be. SIGH!! I miss our blizzards, and yet, I am not healthy enough to shovel or even get the snow off the car. I do have a neighbor who does it though for those who wish at a very very kind rate. My friend who is a co owner does not want to pay, it's really not much.
    @Novembergail ,, that's so kind of you all to have such places available so the guests can have any resources needed. I belong to Nextdoor ,,, in that I had read about a local vet I had NO CLUE is here. I took Oscar there and I LOVED IT!! VERY MUCH SO!! I'm going to make Izzy an appointment! It's small it's a nice small place that the Vet is the owner!! Therefore Izzy and Oscar will have the vet who will know them. WOOHOO!!! Where I've gone for almost 45 years has grown to big and vets are in and out of there really fast!! NO TY TY TY!! Izzy looks like she's feeling better today, but her breathing isn't up there up to it's normal "not that good" but, she's out here with me and looks happy.
    @Tabatha_Cain ,, Awww TY TY TY a good part of what I needed to do last night is done. It was fun and interesting though. I'll take one of those cones please!! Though presentation is nice, at least the ice cream machine works!! Hmmm the MC place that's RARE or at least it's VERY rare here. I know someone who worked at the MC place who said it wasn't down they just didn't want to clean it. SIGH SIGH!!
    @Catwmncat ,, YUMMY on that sandwich!! Buffalo chicken blue cheese!! OH MY OH MY!! Was good talking to you last night though you HUNG UP ON ME (LOLOL she's whine and say it was an error LOLOLOL) Oh I'll help you a TINY TINY Bit with @Tabatha_Cain practice cones. LOL
    @Lindiemaep ,,,GO For the steps!!! Indeed, right now awwww Izzy is out here with me and on my lap and Oscar is in the bedroom. He'd rather be out be out here , but LOL She's purrring so LOUDLY!! And I do hear him playing in there as a happy boy.
    @Melissaridgeway ,, WELCOME to the 5% Challenge chat!! Please ask ANY question(s) you have!! And pull up a chair!! It's nice and cozy here around the fireplace!

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Thanks for the support. I know it will eventually come off. I know my calories are not helping but at least I keep trying. I am just use to having a little hiccup and then getting back on track. This is a huge mountain.

    Today has been cold and cloudy. Completed all workouts, studied, did dishes, laundry and decluttering, worked on my TOPS program for Tuesday and played Wii sports with Hubby.

    Happy Thursday, hope your day has gone well. Our son is arriving tonight and will be in Lindale tomorrow, we haven't had a visit in 2 years so we are really looking forward to it. Have a great Friday and weekend. Hugs and blessings

    Pause to smell the roses, to breathe, to take a quiet moment for yourself.
    Let today be a day to remember that you get to CHOOSE how you spend your time.

    @Cseguin2 ,, You are an amazing woman!! A very strong woman, we know you'll be fine. We ALL go through various situations/feeling etc. that can knock us for a bit. BUT it's usually during these times we are doing our HARDEST work, and figuring things out.
    @Kurtize ,, that's so SUPER Exciting!!ENJOY that visit!! Oh I have NO DOUBT YOU WILL!!! CHOOSE how we spend the time is a wise thing to do. We can fall into a routine and not realize how much wasted time we do. But, if we were to write down for the day the details of what we do, we could take that wasted time for ourselves or to do something very meaningful.

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well. Today is going to be a good day. I hope. I have a doctor appt for my migraines. They are back with a vengeance. I use to have them when my kids were little and then they stopped for about 7 years and now they are back really bad. So I am not sure what to do about them other than go to the doctor.

    @LindieMaeP - Last night I ended up leaving my day job and calling off my night job due to a migraine. It was bad yesterday and I slept from 12 pm to 5 pm and then again from 7 pm to 5 am. I am still feeling like the migraine might come back today. When making the soft serve I do not eat my mistakes. That would easily increase my waist line.
    @Catwmncat - I love soft serve ice cream. I didn't do too bad with my second and 3rd time doing it. Plus the kids don't care what they look like.
    @Dianedoessmiles1 - That makes me wonder because a lot of our MC's in town don't have working ice cream machines. Now I wonder is it truly broken or do they just not want to mess with it.

    Well it is time to get ready for work. I hope you all have a great day.

    Good afternoon everyone, it's been a great day and the sun finally stopped hiding behind the clouds and decided to join the day !! I got a good walk in and picked up my dress that was altered - it fits great !! I tried it on as soon as I got home, and am happy with the results. The other dress I will leave at the length it is and just enjoy wearing it.
    @Tabatha_Cain oh no to migrains and leaving work early, your weather has been yo yoing from what i see for Ontario - my daughter gets migrains as well and was told to take magnesium for it, makes on go but helps with the migrain - do you have meds you can take ? My mom used to get them too and she would spend days in a dark room - but I do not get them and I am happy I do not get them. I can get other head aches though...I hope you are feeling better!
    @Kurize enjoy your visitors !!
