Happy Friday, we got some sad news this morning that our dear friend passed away, it was quite unexpected. We just feel at such a loss. Sadly we don't live close any more so can't be with Cynthia.
I do wish all of you a great day. Hugs and blessings.

Good Evening Everyone!
Today has been a chilly day. With that being said I still went for my walk and even added walking to the grocery store before going home equalling about 8 km. Did stop at Tim Hortons to use the bathroom so bought some timbits to take home. Also stopped at McDonald's for a sausage and egg McMuffin for breakfast. Normally I would have bought a combo with a diet coke. But not today just the sandwich. When I got home I spent over an hour doing the rest of my exercises. After lunch Hubby and I played Wii sports. Boy am I tired.2 -
Rainy days seem to put me in slow motion. Though, I did do some cleaning and some walking. As I get ready for bed, I am glad that there isn't a McD close that offers 24-hour breakfasts. Those Egg McMuffin's sound delicious.
@Kurtize: I am so sorry to hear of the death of your friend. 💐
@Catwmncat: Don't you feel just drained after getting work on your teeth finished? Time for a bit of TLC.
Tomorrow' words are gratitude and birth.
I looked these tiny flowers up on the internet: Whitlowgrass. It seems like every year I discover something new (or I had forgotten).
Have a great weekend!3 -

@Kurtize I'm so sorry for the unexpected loss of your friend.
@NovemberGail I could use some TLC, but not due to the dental work. That was very minor. Isn't it great that when we forget things we just get to learn about them all over again!
Have A Great Caturday and Don't forget to Weigh-In if you are staying accountable!3 -

Good Morning Airport Friends
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is going to be a crap day I can tell. Nothing already seems to be going right. I seem to have done everything wrong recently. I am at this point just ready to walk away and be done with it. I have been having such a bad run of things lately.
@Kurtize - I am sorry for your loss of your friend
@CSEGUIN2 - You did do a lot. I need to get my act together and get some exercising done. I have not done hardly any this whole practice round
@NovemberGail - The Sausage Buscuit is really really good. Rain does make things harder.
@Catwmncat - Yeah I know and I did offer. So it is no big deal just a lot of different scenarios I have to write down and go through.
Well it is time to get some food for Joe. I hope you are all having a great day.

Happy Saturday! Excited for the new challenge to start and fire a fresh start! My goal this challenge is to be on top of things with posting my numbers, chatting, and finally achieving my 5%! For awhile now, I haven't been chatting much since I just haven't had the energy for it. I still don't, but I need to force myself to push through the fatigue. I need the support and the focus, and supporting others in turn helps me to. Otherwise I'm not even really "connected" to my journey or accountable. So my goal is to be present!
Anyone remember Bill Thompson from Sparkpeople? I know he commented on a lot of people's blogs. He should know I think of him often. He WAS a diabetic. I remember a blog where he said his insurance and Dr no longer considered him a diabetic. I wrote down in my notebook many things from his blogs. I'm essence, I'm emulating what he has done to reverse his diabetes to reverse mine. Trying anyways. I'm so deconditioned and with fatigue is a struggle. I'm doing stuff for my fatigue. Being post menopauseal hasn't helped. I know I'll start to feel better, I just gotta push through this initial wall.
@Tabatha,. So sorry to hear that you're having a bad run of things lately, and I pray this morning is the last of it. I know that feeling for sure! Hugs to you!
@Kurtize,. I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend. Hugs to you!
Have a great weekend!

@Kurtize -So sorry about the loss of your friend. Lots of hugs sent your way.
Tabatha-Sorry it has been a rough day. Hope things smooth out soon. That was my week, lots of little things that were adding up and causing me stress. Feeling better now that I dealt with all of it. Hope your day gets brighter.
@Patti241 -Good afternoon...hope you have an amazing day!
@macrat12 -That ice cream recipe sounds good and has protein in it. A win, win. Nice job on the exercise!
Trina-Nice to meet you. My dad was diabetic, but he didn't do anything for his health to control it. Hopefully you can find something in your notes that will help. Is Bill on Facebook? Maybe you could reach out to him. I know there was a Sparkpeople group on Facebook, maybe he is on there.
Hope everyone has a great evening.2 -
Good afternoon all. It is a very nice day today. Sunny and 77. @ Catwmncat sending hugs and to al you also @Tabatha_Cain. Hope things are a little better.
Have a great rest of the day and weekend. Looking forward to the challenge, really hoping to do much better this round.

Good Evening Everyone!
Today has been rainy, windy and cold. Got most of my exercises done. Got some chores done and played a couple of games of cards with Hubby.1 -
Our son Jon had recently relocated to Ottawa. Hubby and I were so happy and excited that he was home. In the middle of February he was diagnosed with an aggressive Cancer, hospitalized and placed in Palliative Care. On March 12th he tried to get out of his hospital bed on his own and fell backwards. The results were a concussion as well as cracked and split his skull in half and multiple internal bleeding on the brain, They attempted to save his life, the damage was inoperable, On March 21st at 11:10 pm he passed away.
Before passing we were able to spend all our time with him at the hospital. Last Sunday he was given his last rights. Yesterday he was cremated
Our hearts are breaking beyond comprehension. He was such a loving, caring son who loved laughter, who called at least 6 times a day, and texts as well, and would always end by saying " I love you"

@DID_60LBS_BY60 OH HON!! I am so brokenhearted by this!!! I feel so horrible for you all. Life sure can kick us and kick us hard. The loss of a child is so unreal and horrific no matter how old or young they are. Oh, hon!!! We are walking quietly beside you, holding you when you want, crying as much you need/want/can though it'll not change things it'll help to not bottle things up. If you like at any time, even years from now, and only when and if you'd like by all means tell us about him. We are with you. So many hugs.3
-
@DID_60LBS_BY60: I can only echo what Diane expressed. Holding you close in prayer. You do have a bit of solace knowing that he was ready and received the last rights. You are not alone and am holding you in prayer.
@Tabatha_Cain: Sorry that you are hitting a rough patch. During those times I remind myself that there is a beginning, a middle and an end. Maybe that might help when you think that circumstances are not turning around.
My project today was staining some doors. I took a photo but it doesn't do the job justice. The area looks so much warmer.
Tomorrow's word is UNDERSTANDING.

@DID_60LBS_BY60 : I'm sorry to hear about the passing of your son. Many hugs and prayers for you and your family.
Good afternoon everyone! It's a beautiful sunny day here today. My daughter says hello to all. 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 a while ago and I feel great! I'll be doing some dancing later on. Have a great day, everyone!

Good Afternoon Airport Friends:
Yes I am checking in at a different time today. We had so much on our plates today we just did not have time to do our morning check ins. Joe was having some pain and we were not sure if it is from his kidney stone or something else so we just kinda lazed about at his parents and really did not do much but watch movies. We did watch church online though. We never miss a week.
@ForeverFitNHealthy - Thank you. Things seem to be a bit better today. I am tired and worn out for the day and have barely done anything.
@ginnaboots - Thank you. It does seem to be a bunch of little things that are bothering me.
@DID_60LBS_BY60 - Oh My. I am so sorry for your loss. My little problems are nothing compared to what you are going through. We are I am sure all walking with you in spirit and praying for you. I am sure there is some comfort in knowing your son had his last rites. I will pray for your peace.
@NovemberGail - Those doors look great. Thank you for the advice. I am working through the rough patches. At least I am trying to anyways.
Well it is almost time to go grocery shopping. I hope you all have a great evening.

Good Evening Everyone!
@DID_60LBS_BY60 I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Hugs.
Today has been a beautiful day full of movement. Walked to Church and had a great fellowship. The one lady close to my age that I have gotten to know well decided today we needed to exchange cell numbers. I was so honored. After leaving Church it was sunny and nice so decided to go for my walk before going home. Also completed my workouts, dishes, did some laundry and played Wii sports with Hubby. No excuses to day!!2 -
Dear @DID_60LBS_BY60 - I am so sorry, my prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. I can't imagine what you all are going through. Hugs.2

HI ALL!! I'm trying so hard to feel better. They think I'm on a med that just needs to be changed around, and if so I'll at least be a tiny bit better or more. In the meantime Ever wish you could REALLY get that last bit or more off? The OAL's talked it over and our VERY OWN @Hicim705 came up with an updated Countdown Activities. I did the first one tonight and I DO feel more motivated, and I can see I'll have a doable plan!! I encourage all of us on the 5% To please doing us ,, here's the link (it's under discussion feed Countdown & Pre-Challenge Activity #1: INFORMATION and YOUR INPUT! ℹ️🔠https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/144485-2023-spring-5-community-team-plz-join-us

I walked over four miles today without really even realizing it. The weather was beautiful after the heavy rains. Just a wee bit muddy in the yard and trails.
Tomorrow's word is BALANCE. (Isn't life a juggling act sometimes??
Bluets and one of my favorite small flowers. Some folks call the nun eyes.

Good evening everyone, it's been a busy day starting early and ending now, I am ready for bed !! This afternoon the family that lives here, well most of them, got together for 5 pin bowling and what a blast we had. We were creative, funny and just had a good time. We do not get together too often as we are all busy with different activities. Then the lifepro vibration board my son order on Amazon came today and he's been busy figuring that out but I'll wait and try it tomorrow. I hope everyone has a good night's sleep and that they have a good monday. The picture below is from last night I believe.

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is going to be a good day. It is my last week at my current job and then I will have 2 days next week. I am nervous on what the day is going to look like when I get to work. Am I going to be training others to do my job. I do a lot and I don't think they are going to be able to keep up. I just don't think they are going to. I am sorry for dropping them like I am but I just really feel that this is what is best for me. They were unwilling to adjust my pay based off what I do so I feel it is only fair that I look for a job that does just what I want and I make the money I want.
@CSEGUIN2 - That is great that you exchanged phone numbers. Also nice that you were able to go for your walk
@NovemberGail - That is great that you got that walk in. I am so ready to get out and get some exercise out side in.
@LindieMaeP - Nice that everyone got together and had some fun. Love the photos.
Well it is time to get some breakfast. I hope you all have a great day.
Tabatha4 -
@DID_60LBS_BY60 -That is so heartbreaking! I am so deeply sorry for your loss. Lots of hugs.
@NovemberGail -The doors look great! Way to go on the 4 mile walk.
Diane-I sure do hope you start feeling better! Hope the doctors get it figured out.
Lindie-I hope you like the vibration plate. Take it slow because it doesn't feel like it's gonna do anything, but trust me it does. Drink lots of water because it drains your lymphatic system getting all those toxins out. So drinking water helps you pee them out. lol. I did it for 28 minutes on high one day and I felt it big time the next day. I would start out at like 5 minutes a day for a week or so. Enjoy! Love all of the beautiful pictures.
@lavalily -Beautiful orchids. Love the deep purple one. Mine is on its fourth bloom. That is really good for me because I do not have a green thumb at all. My grandson was into plants so I bought him some to keep here and all we have left is the orchid.
Tabatha-I feel for you on training the new ones. Hopefully if you end up doing it, all goes well. That is the one part of my job I do not like. I have to exercise a lot of patience and that is not one of my
virtues....hahahaha!
Happy Monday everyone!4 -
