    14. Just for fun: Start sketching dragon on a pile of books, offering one to the armored knight, & banner that reads "Treasure should not be hoarded / It should be shared." Use AI for ideas.

    JFT Sunday 13th

    Log everything yes
    Stay in the green no, 44 over
    Foot exercises yes
    Back exercises no
    Only one snack yes
    Tidy something (anything!) up yes
    Phone mobile phone company yes, frustrating service

    I didn't do too badly considering I was out with my sister-in-law (she is much taller than me and very active so can eat a lot more). I limited it to a scone and refused the cake. Later she bought ice creams for us both. I wasn't going to have anything in the evening, but son asked for help again, and when I got home for the second time (unsettled again!) I decided to have toast. Just sat down to eat it, and son, grandson and dog arrived in my house again. By then I was desperate for some quiet time! I've realised that although I like spending time with friends and family, I also need some alone time to recover. I need to learn to not eat when it gets too much. More willpower needed!

    I won't be logging today as grandson is here, but will be mindful with food.

    JFT Monday 14th Aug

    Foot exercises
    Walk dog
    Be patient!

    JFT 8/14
    - log food and water
    - Reintroduce Greek yogurt
    - Edit
    - Write
    - Run dishwasher
    - Figure out medical bill

    Biggest priority today is figuring out this medical billing issue. The first statement they sent me was messed up; they fixed it and sent me another one. I paid it, now they sent me a THIRD bill for the amount that I paid plus an extra $400 tacked onto it. So I don’t know how much I owe or why.

    Gotta love Mondays

    - log food and water 🤷‍♀️
    - Reintroduce Greek yogurt ❌
    - Edit ❌
    - Write ✅
    - Run dishwasher ❌
    - Figure out medical bill ❌

    Some of my food log is an estimate - did a lot of grazing in the afternoon and didn’t pay attention to exactly how much I was eating. I wasn’t hungry at all, I was just comfort eating. Didn’t reintroduce the yogurt like my nutritionist wanted me to. I found out I have to go into the office tomorrow so I didn’t want to risk it.

    I’m so tired and it’s been throwing me so out of whack. Woke up at 3:45 this morning thanks to noisy neighbors blasting their car stereo and I’m really hoping that doesn’t happen again tonight.

    Do you guys find it overwhelming to set too many goals etc for one day? I feel like I can focus on one or two things, and everything else is secondary. Like today I had to work and I was low energy so I didn't know if I could handle anything else. Ideally I would make a list of like 20 things but I would only be able to do all of them like 30% of the time. Sometimes I get too overwhelmed to even make a list.

    I have the same goals daily, I’m trying to make them habits again.
    Once I get those down I’ll add more water, and a calorie limit.

    I used to have 6-7 goals I want to get back to that.

    We're all different. I try to list all of my "have to do" things, and maybe one stretch goal. If I list to many maybe things it gets overwhelming and sometimes discouraging. Good luck!

    Tomorrow is a big day. Moving the youngest into her dorm. Tonight we pack, and if I can swing it I really need a pedicure. After we move her in we are driving to Charlotte, then on to Sumpter SC early Thursday and home Thursday night. Or at least part way home depending on how late it is and how tired we are. Friday is a vacation day at home, maybe I'll hit the trails either on foot or on the bike. Saturday I teach spin and then prep food for Sunday. Manageably busy week. Glad I took Friday off, wish I could also take Monday, but there are too many "important" meetings.

    JFT Tuesday
    - Morning meetings
    - Safety training
    - Meetings
    - Home by 5:00
    - Pedicure
    - Pack
    - Load vehicle
    - No alcohol
    - Bed by 10:00
