Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Tuesday and it is going to be a great day. It is the last day of the month. I have struggled to get my memberships. I think I am at 4 for the month and I need 12. I am going to find a way to make up the numbers so that by the end of the year I am in an amazing spot there. That is my goal. I am going to get it.
@cormierannie - I am so sorry for your loss. I hope you are able to get your fiance's stuff out by the time you need to. It is nice of your friend to go with you. Enjoy the movie and I hope you win the gift card.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday.

Good afternoon all, hope your day is going well. I have been tired today and I don't know why. Need to push myself to get anything done. It is a beautiful day out. On my West Trail walk for Conqueror virtual walk, I am to 80% mark and planted another tree. That's all that is new with me. Have a great rest of the day, Can't believe April is over. Time is flying.

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Wednesday and it is going to be a great day. I am excited for today, but also very exhausted right now. I cannot believe how tired. I want to just go back to sleep. My FMLA was approved by my work yesterday. I can take 4 days off a month for my Fibromyalgia right now. I see my doctor on the 10th to go over my new meds and see how they are doing. So we will see how it goes.
@Kurtize - You are doing amazing. I am sorry you are tired. That does happen sometimes. I recommend listening to your body. If you need to rest definitely rest.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday.

Happy Friday and weekend, here is today's affirmation:

@Tabatha_Cain , I had a GREAT TIME!! THANKS!! Coming home of course with a little bit of 95 closed, trucks were "saving" time (HAHAHAHA) by hitting the other interstates. We traveled as we had planned on I-84 through CT and into MA onto 90 than 95 for the ME/NH borders. LOL We ALWAYS cheer when we cross the bridge from NH into ME!! LOL ALWAYS!!! It was a FANTASTIC time!! A very quick trip, but with the 4 of us, lots of laughs. COOL you were granted 4 days of time off for the pain. I'm not sure if your insurance will cover Acupuncture? Mine will ONLY if it's being done by an MD. Mine who does it, charges it to my insurance as an office visit. I just over the needles (15$ each visit so no biggie). It has helped me through the years!! I hope you are able to reach your sales goal!
@Cormierannie, Hon, so sorry!! So hard to clean out someone we love place. As we do so memories flood back, it can hurt, but it can also help. I'm glad his neighbors are telling you much about him and no doubt how much he meant to others. I live in a 55 plus and know when we lose someone we really care about, it hurts. Funny how living in a building or complex etc of others, it becomes a family of sorts. Here I know we do watch out for each other. I try to do so without being nosey though. I'm well liked and it shows, no doubt from the sounds of it, he was to. WHat an honor for you to know him, and enjoy his love.
@Patti241, how did the week go?
@Kurtize, TY TY TY For the inspirational quotes Joyce!! How's the leg?

While I wait for the Summer challenge to start, I figure I'll hang out at the VIP lounge. Hubby is bringing an egg hut sandwich from his night shift. I already tracked it. I really like the way the food tracker is set up here. I did WW for the past 1.5 years but never got used to not seeing micronutrients, fiber, cholesterol etc. Those are the values I monitor most. Today will work on my step goal 6000, getting my fiber, water and try out some pelvic floor exercises.
To all a great day!0 -

Good morning all. Hope your weigh in went well. I am happy lost a few ounces. Did the wash this morning. Put on compression stocking. It is one thigh high. This is the last day, thank goodness. I do get a good workout getting it on. Welcome back @Dianedoessmiles1, we missed you but very glad you had a good time off. Have a great day. Hugs and blessings.

@Schnootie WELCOME TO MFP and the 5% Challenge!! So happy you are here with us!! Very soon NO DOUBT @Ceriusly1 will get you onto a team! On the 5% Which team were you on? Just curious! And was this your Screen name? If you'd like to get in contact with your former team members, and they kept the same name, it's pretty easy to help one. Many have found their way back to the team they were on if that team is still together. We have 8 teams instead of 12, but many of those who were on the 4 other teams have rejoined their former team members on one of the 8 teams. LOVED reading how you've been doing!! On MFP you can change around some of the macros we track also. If you are a paying member you get more choices.
@Patti241, that's great!! for SUNDAY is a FUN DAY anything you got up your sleeve? Often I find lately LOL I include in the word FUN for SUNDAY is a FUN DAY It includes some relaxing, while also getting in my exercise.
@Kurtize, awww Joyce THANKS!! LOL that was WILD going to NY from Maine touring that day (our ticket said 3 hours, but we had also a private tour (Thanks to someone we know who arranged it for us, we didn't mind at ALL having others join us! It was fun watching their faces as well!) so it was 4 hours. I THINK I may of sat down maybe a total of 45 mins. OH MY FOOT, but so WORTH IT!! We had to go slow for myself and a friend who has asthama. LOL We shared a room, I SERIOUSLY thought when she was NOT MOVING for HOURS as she slept "maybe she died!" LOL DO NOT we HATE those foolish thoughts that can come into our heads??? She's my friend who is a 5 time cancer survivor (waiting to see if it's back again, we totally cheirshed having her with us!). I'm happy to see you are doing better Joyce! Your surgery was only last week!
@Tabatha_Cain maybe she's away this weekend? Tabathaaaaaaaa0 -
@Dianedoessmiles1 aww, thank you so much for the warm welcome back and the help with the macros!!!! I see that I was invited to a team, so I will run over there, grab some travel snacks and get buckled up in my seat. Wheeeeeee. I am super excited to be back in the game! Can't wait to see who I will run across here. I am sure many old and new friends are awaiting.

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Sunday. Yesterday I spent the entire day spending time with my husband. It was pretty amazing. I love spending time with him. It has been a while since we have actually spent time together we have been running door dash or spark for a few months now. We are doing well though and getting debt paid down. It is working well.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - No I am not away for the weekend. I totally missed you, but I am glad you had an amazing time out. Quick trips are definitely fun filled and packed. I have never thought of acupuncture. It sounds kinda scary. It is pretty cool that they gave me 4 days a month, but I have to use my PTO of at least 40 hours of it.
@Schnootie - That is great that you are able to monitor the macros you want to monitor. Steps are really good as well.
@Kurtize - Glad you are on your last day of the compression sock. Do you think it helped? I started my wash this morning. Definitely needed to get it finished.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.

@Schnootie Welcome to 5% challenge. @Dianedoessmiles1 and @Tabatha_Cain yes this Wednesday will be 2 weeks since surgery. I see the dr. Tuesday. I think it did help, my leg isn't as swollen as it was.
Not much new here. A little overcast but nice. Kayla and I went for a walk early today. Today is our Son's birthday, he is 61. Well that's it for now, hugs and blessings.

@Tabatha_Cain. So GOOD to see ya!! I've done acupuncture not only for pain, but GI stuff, SLEEP (helped!) migraines it's an amazing experience!! It helped so much, I was able to get off morphine (This was around 2018) and never looked back. Now it's not 100% Cured it'll never be. But now stretches will help me to reduce the pain down to 1 or at the most 2. If you can find a MD who does it, and s/he is willing to bill your insurance (many larger places do this now) WOOHOO!!! I do highly recommend it. You'll very quickly get used to the needles. They did not hurt me. So cool you and Joe got to spend time together yesterday! Awesome that you have (or will have) the PTO to use.
@Patti241, sometimes an unplanned day turns out to be the BEST! Hope you enjoyed.
@Kurtize, so happy it helped!! NICE!! Not bad at all on your recovery time either!! Thurs it'll be a month since mine. My scar is healing nicely. I did have some issues with swallowing this morning. I am not sure if that is normal. My lympt nodes get pretty swollen, but they were before the surgery too. Hopefully, all of us will be KICKING THE SAND this summer!! Or Rocks for those who do not live near the ocean or a lake.1
