Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Saturday and yesterday I literally got so much done in cleaning. I got my computer room done, and organized, I got the hallway upstairs cleaned and the stair way all the way down to the main floor vacuumed. That was a lot carrying the vacuum down the stairs while vacuuming. It was great. Today I will be working on the living room or maybe tomorrow, but I am going to get the living room done as well. I am seriously working hard at getting the house rearranged and organized. I love doing this it is just a lot.
@Kurtize - Well at least you got a beautiful Rainbow. That is great that you and Kayla got a walk in.
@aalley5 - That is good that you found a website to help you with the proper amount of protein. What are you using for protein substitutes since you are not eating meat?
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday.

@Dianedoessmiles1 - it is wonderful being back home and we did enjoy every minute with family and friends. I only had a 5lb gain, which far better than I thought it would be.
@Tabatha_Cain- right now I'm eating beyond burger, chicken hormone feed free cage free and eggs, salmon and other white fish, Greek yogurt and Kiefer.
@Patti241 - Hope you have a good day!
@kurtize, I hope you had a better day without storms. I've had enough of those for awhile.
Have a great Saturday everyone!

Happy Saturday!
I'm not sure if this is the place to do the team chat that is on our challenge for this week or not? Anyway, I was up way too early this morning and just got home from the golf course. I am a tired pup! I walk a lot on the course in addition to all the club swinging. I'll be ready for bed early tonight.
Have a great weekend!1 -
@Tabatha_Cain , I am so sorry they didn't give you a send off party!! OH MY!! I get why you are leaving. LOVE the idea of 10 mins of going through your closet!! Mine is very small, but yeah I also need to go through it!! GREAT JOB on getting so much done!
@Aalley5, I am so happy you had a great time with family!!! In 5 weeks I'll be in upper NY!! Also with family! LOLOL other than the UGLY AUNT It'll be fun. There are few I am not super comfy around, it's been so many years, but others if I were trapped in a room for weeks, I'd be LOVING EVERY SINGLE MOMENTS!! That's 97% of them!! NOT BAD!! I feel pity for UGLY AUNT, but she keeps that way. There's a reason I am sure, but she's in her 80s LET IT GO!! You are eating some healthy items!! WTG ON THAT!!
@Primalgal, WB to the 2024 Spring 5% Chat!! for your points please also post on the team you are on (Fit Force, Gr8ters, Red Hots, etc. etc. sorry not sure which one you are on). NICE JOB On being on the golf course early and all of the walking!!
@Kurtize, OH MY OH MY!! Nooooo 100!!??? NOOOOOO!!! OI think it's on the hot side today and it hit 71! THANKFULLY we've had a number of showers/t storms come through today, but after it reheats up again.1 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Sunday and it is going to be a great day. After church Joe and I are going to go to my mother's and help her with some projects. My stepdad is no longer physically able to help do anything. So it really puts a strain on her and my brother is useless as he doesn't know how to do anything. That boy could not do physical labor if it bit him in the butt, or any type of house repair. So it falls to my husband who does it willing because he loves my mother.
@aalley5 - That is awesome. Joe and I are always trying to get the right amount of protein in. Sometimes we really struggle with that.
@Primalgal - That is good that golf is able to give you all the exercise. It is a pretty active sport between the walking and swinging I am sure it is a good core twist as well as arm strength.
@Kurtize - Ugh I am so sorry you were in the 100's yesterday. I hope that is not the case today, and you are able to cool down a bit today.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I was so tired after getting that all done. Yeah I was bummed that I got nothing, but that is alright. It just shows how toxic that environment was. In almost every job I have had a going away thing for me. When I worked at Farmers one of the agents brought me in flowers and mini cupcakes for the office. It was so nice.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.

Funday Sunday, It's so hot here that I'll be working out inside today and skipping the motorcycle ride and luncheon today. 🏍 💐
Thanks @Patti241! I hope your weather is better than mine.
@Tabatha_Cain- I'm glad you were able to check the article out.
What does everyone think about the MFP Newsfeed going away?
I found this link that introduced activity feed and nothing about the Newsfeed going away.

Good evening all, happy Sunday. Today was cooler, 84. We did have thunder and lightning but no real rain, Thunder and lightning again today around 7. Today is Kayla's birthday, she is 9. Here is picture when she was born and this one a couple of weeks ago.

@Kurtize - cute pup! Happy birthday to her!
@Dianedoessmiles1 - so sorry you have to deal with an ugly aunt. Hopefully it will be okay! Maybe she needs a hug.
One of my team mates just posted this about the newsfeed.

Hello Team.
Popping in for a quick 'hi." Yesterday was a busy day but so much fun. We had our final retirement party - with family and friends this time vs. work. We order food and even though the food ordered matched the number who attended -there was a ton left over. I sent a lot home with various people but so much left. Cupcakes are in the freezer. Back to my plan tomorrow. 😀
@Kurtize - your pup is a cutie!2 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Monday and it is going to be a great day. I am really nervous for my new job today. I know it will be good, but it is a new environment and I am not quite sure how to deal with that stuff. The last couple of days my pup has had a cough. Every once in a while she will get one and they add a steroid to her heart med and then the cough goes away and she is fine. This is the first time this year that she has had to get back into the doctor for the cough. I am wondering if it is not allergies of some type. We will see. So today I will be calling to get her into the vet. That should be fun. I will have to do that Saturday.
@aalley5 - Sorry you had to skip your motorcycle ride. Those are my favorite. I am not sure how I feel about the newsfeed going away. I use it sometimes, but mostly I don't. I just read it.
@Kurtize - Kayla is adorable. I have 2 dogs. One is going to be 13 in November and one will be 10 in July. Sorry you had some bad weather.
@Lopeyp - Wow sometimes I think restaurants plan for people to take bigger portions than they actually take. We had a ton of extra food from our wedding. I am glad you were able to either freeze it or send it home with other people to eat.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Monday.

Good morning!
My plan today is to get my circuit training done and track my meals and water. I'm also looking into setting up a blog on blogspot since the newsfeed will be going away.
I'm unable to find where I can add friends on MFP, it must have changed too.
@Patti241 - hope you day is great!
@Tabatha_Cain- it was just too hot for me, I have to cover exposed skin so it makes riding in the summer challenging.0 -

Good afternoon. Today has been a raining day but has cooled down the temps. Not much new here.
Sorry Diane about your Aunt trouble/problem. @macrat12 wanted to tell you I like your quotes. Luckily Kayla and I got our walk in before it rained. On my American cancer society- 30 mile dog walk in June, Kayla and I have walked we walked 8.74 miles, 306 minutes, and I burned 1295 calories. Average = .874 miles per day, 30.6 min, 129.5 calories per walk for us. This helps me to get moving in morning and get out and walk. Feeling good.
Thank you for Kayla's birthday wishes.
Have a great rest of the day, Hugs and blessings.

@Tabatha_Cain , Aww so nice of you and Joe to help out your Mom. I have NO DOUBT she really appreciates it. LOL I have a brother like that, but he really has NO CLUE and when he touches things, they RUN away from him or die upon his eyes resting upon him. Its always been that way. Highly intelligent, but otherwise LACKING EVERYTHING!! So sorry they didn't do anything for you on Friday. How did work go today? It usually takes me a bit to settle on in, and others to get used to me.
@Aalley5, I hope today was a good day. The newsfeed doesn't bother me, I rarely look at it now. I did at first, but not now. However, I know many love it, and use it a lot. LOL I AM AFRAID to hug my aunt, but if it's really HOT OUT I WILL cause that lady is COLD!! Okay that was naughty, but she's liked any signs of affection. She really doesn't fit in with the rest of the family. But, I know my Grandmother never stepped outside the marriage so she must be related, somehow.
@kurtize, Awwww Kayla was such a CUTE PUP and now just the SWEETEST DOG!!! Awwww Kayla!! It does NOT seen she sould be 9. WOW!! You have done AMAZING with the walk!!!
@Lopeyp , Sounds like you all had a really good day!! YEAH!! I love sending food home with others, so much less for me that way.
@Aalley5, and others.

@Dianedoessmiles1- so sorry about your aunt. I did try to add a new friend that way but it didn't work on the app. Maybe it would on my PC.
I'll check tomorrow. Thanks0 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Tuesday and it is back to the new job I go. Things went pretty well yesterday. Watching some training videos, filling out tax paperwork, and setting up log ins for the companies we work with. I need access to be able to go in and make payments for the clients. It is definitely going to be an easy job. I really feel so much better about this new job.
@aalley5 - You go to the persons profile and click add friend. That is from the computer. With the app I have no idea. I do the same. I have been on motorcycles my whole life and was always told to cover myself and plan for the fall. So I wear pants, tie shoes, long sleeve jacket and full face helmet. So I get it. When it is around 90 it is too hot to be out on that motorcycle in full gear. My sister laughs at me, but I am not the one who was trying to wear heels on a bike and fell off the bike and broke her leg. So that says something.
@Kurtize - That is good that you are inspired to get up and walk.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I was nervous yesterday. I feel a bit out of place, but people did come and talk to me so that is cool. I did some training videos yesterday and set up company log ins.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday.

@Aalley5, glad it helped to do it that way on your PC. That's where I was doing mine also, PC. Ohhh you are doing it a longer way than I am. I just type in: Myfitnesspal.com/and copy and paste the name needed into that. It takes me directly to their page, but really either way is AWESOME you can still get there!! WOOHOO!!
@Tabatha_Cain , GLAD to hear it is better than the older job. Training videos are always fun, does yours require the testing as you go along? I was so BORED about all the chemicals and interactions, I knew I'd not be working with any, but it's good to know! LOL I GUESS!!! TY TY TY for when you ride to dress well "in case of a fall." NO ONE WANTS to fall, but let's face it many drivers are super aggressive now, it can happen in the best of weather, never mind otherwise. I HOPE You never fall. EEEKKK that your sister thought HEALS WOULD DO!! Oh my !! Yeah, I am imagine she learned not a great ida, okay NOT an idea to be done. LOL
@Patti241, Enjoy Weds the weather up here will be TOTALLY GORGEOUS, than it'll start to warm up. We've been so fortunate that we haven't on the coast hardly hit 80, mostly this past week and tomorrow 60s or low 70s. It'll start to warm up on Thurs in the mid to high 70s and we'll GO FROM THERAH!0 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Wednesday and well it is going to be a rough day. I finished day 2 of my new job, but I did not know it but I made a huge mistake. I questioned one of their agents on how she was quoting a policy. Well then after work the owner called me and said that I was not the right fit for the position and fired me. So I currently have no job. For the first time since 2014 I have no job. I did reach back out to AAA and they are working to get me back into the office there in Battle Creek. So we will see how that goes. I wonder how long it is going to take for them to get me back in there. Meanwhile I have no income. I am going to be door dashing every since day until then to make enough money to survive. I am so stressing out bad.
@aalley5 - That is good. I am glad it worked.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Thank you. I always cover my body when riding a motorcycle just like I always wear a helmet.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday.

Good morning everyone!
My blood work results came back already and my glucose is high, but is in the normal range. Everything else looks like it's in the normal range. I looked up how to bring it down and discovered I already knew how to do that. I just need to lower my carbs a little more and move more though out the day instead of doing one or two workouts.
I've already finished one workout and am going to try to do another 10 min a couple more times. I'll see how that goes.
@Tabatha_Cain - My heart hurts for you! I'm so sorry things didn't work out. I hope when one door closes, another one will open for you.
Please know I'm wishing you all good things!
