    Good morning folks, start of a mini heat wave here, have lots of water and can use cool gel pads if necessary but think the A/C will be enough when needed. Hope youall are enjoying your weekend. Stay safe !!

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Tabatha you're getting a great workout. Now to keep it going when there is no festival.

    Today has been hot and humid. Didn't sleep well last night with tornado warnings in Michigan and storms here. Went for my walk and then walked to and from the farmers market. Did some laundry, dishes, played Wii sports with Hubby for multiple hours and started my Greek pasta salad for tomorrow. No strength today.

    @Sparkuvu I googled Craving Change and got this site: https://www.cravingchange.ca/
    The google review before I clicked the link said it was created by a psycologist and registered dietician. Not sure about their credentials. WHat people are saying, when looking at it, mention Shah and Cannon - no idea who they are, the creators maybe ? The about tab shows Our Company and Cognitive-Behavoural Model.. Did you explore that ?? I also took a look at the "reviews" which seem to be selective - I prefer reviews that show what's not working as oppossed to it's wonderful ... it also shows an Alberta address as well. From what I gather, it's a pay into program. worth it? Dunno .. not paying ... BUT it might have some ideas - One of the reviews mentioned a free "tool" they used in their zoom discussion about "why we eat" ... They also seem to have a facebook, linkedin site as well but again, most likely private or limited in information. When one has something to sell, they dont' give away the farm so to speak. What did you find that appealed to you ?

    Thanks for looking! It was the blog on here about 'cresting the wave' regarding fighting craving that attracted me. But, as you say, unless you join a paid program, you can't find out much info. I'm not much of one for programs, but this sounded intriguing enough to look into. The blog here also mentioned the program going deep into why we eat, which also interests me, and I asked her for specifics, but she apparently us no longer on MFP. I did play around quite a bit on anything that came up on search hoping for a little back door break in to find out more, lol, but was not sucessful.

    I hope you are all doing well this Sunday Morning.

    @CSEGUIN2 - I do plan to keep the exercise going. It would be great if I could. I just have to find the time. 76 fitness minutes from Fitbit would be amazing every day. What area of Michigan had tornado warnings?

    Well I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.

    I hope you are all doing well. I went to Unity Christian Music Festival from Wednesday to Saturday and then regular church on Sunday to continue my worshipping and let me tell you it was wonderful. We had a wonderful time and I got a wonderful tan on my legs. Finally after 4 days in the sun my legs tanned. That has never happened. I am so happy about it. Woo-hoo. I am darker than my native american son and that says a lot. He looks at the sun and gets a tan. I walked almost 4 miles a day. and I am down 4 pounds in 4 days and let me tell you I ate a bucket of Fries with my husband, shared a huge 8 inch diameter chicken pot pie, had a slice of pizza and ate a different flavor of ice cream every night, drank tons of water. We did pack sandwiches for lunch and had chips with the sandwiches, or had crackers and cheese with the sandwiches. But hauling both camping chairs, a back pack full of snack and a cooler bag with ice packs and tons of water into the Festival every day and then hauling it out every night I got a lot of strength exercises and a lot of walking. I got a couple of free books about God and a woman's soul and a marriage book. I know Joe and I took marriage mentoring class but if I read a bunch of books on making the marriage work then I will be well equipped to make the marriage last forever.

    Well I hope you all have a wonderful Monday.

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Tuesday. Yesterday I was so busy at work. I loved it. I did not have a bunch of time. Did not get any of my breaks except for lunch, but that is ok. I will just have to find a way to get my snacks at my desk. Today probably won't happen though. The boss is there and she does not want us eating at our desks.

    @Kurtize - My cousin lives in Anna, Texas. She mentioned on Facebook that you are all having a cold spell. Then she showed the weather forecast and it was like 92 degrees F for 4 days. I laughed because that is your cold streak and Michigan would so be complaining about it yet you never really hear anyone in Texas complain just more like well here is another hot day lets keep going. You are all built tough.

    Well I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday.

    Good afternoon all, hope you are having a great day today - it's warm here a little too warm for me, but the wind is kicking up some what so that is nice. The A/C is on as well and will run for a while. took the above picture while walking home from Safeway today.

    Today was cooler, a breeze and 93 degrees. We have been talking about it and checking out different places and have decided to move. We are staying in Texas because at our age we don't want to go through drivers tests. We found a place in Amarillo TX, which is north western Texas. Its 55+ community and the home is smaller. It is about a 6 hour drive from here. We listed our house today so will see what happens. Amarillo is still hot but not as hot as here. Been watching the temps. Well that is my latest news. Have a great rest of the day. Hugs all.


    Optimism is a prerequisite to progress. It provides the inspiration we need, especially in hard times. And it provides the encouragement that wills us to chase our grandest ambitions out into the world, instead of locking them away in the safe quiet of our minds.

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Wednesday and I am so glad we are getting close to the weekend. I am excited because I have Monday and Tuesday off work. So that is going to be great. I am loving it. I get some more time off. I do love my job but I love spending time with my husband as well. He is my everything.

    @LindieMaeP - Nice photo. Maybe go for a walk in the morning. It has been raining here the last couple of days so I have not been able to go for a walk. It really stinks.
    @Kurtize - I hope everything goes as planned for you. That would be nice if the weather was a little easier on you.

    Well I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday

    Good morning everyone, got out for my 10 min outside early, did a tour around the block - took me 12 minutes as I had to walk slow due to the knee issues. I got some great garden shots though. I saw a woman out at the building that is kinda behind ours and she was cleaning the area - I thanked her for caring that much, the building is kind of derilect condos due to be torn down one day, not today though.
    @Tabatha_Cain thanks, and hope your day goes well. now remember you got to get outside to maintain those tanned legs !!

    Good afternoon all, hope your day is bright. It did get up to 102 but down to 93. Yesterday was 93 almost all day and it was great. I think cooler weather is coming. LOL to think 93 as cooler weather.

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Thursday and I am almost there to the weekend. Only today and tomorrow. I am looking forward to this weekend. Joe's Daughter is getting married on Sunday. I am excited. One more kiddo down and married. We just have to get our boys to cooperate now and get their lives together. His son is having trouble getting a job as in he is 23 and only wants to game all day so he is living in a camper and playing video games all day while his girlfriend works a part time job so he can buy more video games. He has no want to get a job. The camper is on his grandparents property and they told them they have to be out by the end of October because they are not keeping the heat going in the trailer. So not sure what their plan is there. Joe is upset with his son because they had an apartment together and when Joe moved in with me he told the complex he moved out but they would not remove him from the lease. Well his son skipped out on the last month and now they put the apartment on Joe's credit as a delinquent bill and we just don't have the 1,000 to pay it right now. So we are not able to start looking for our own house. He has talked to his son several times about getting a job and getting that paid off and his son just says oh well not my problem.

    @LindieMaeP - I am definitely working on getting outside more to maintain my tan. Today we are suppose to get thunderstorms so today will not be the day for that. I am glad to see you got out a little earlier yesterday.

    Well I hope you all have a great Thursday.
