    Well group I have to apologize yet again for not being around as much. It's been a struggle lately to help with my wife, kids and the house. Plus this app is messing up. My days are meshing together.

    @Katmary71 it could be a Dad answer. However it is a strapless dress and finding a way for it to be more modest. My wife almost didn't let her get it. Lace would look good as a shawl/throw.

    @laurelfit57 I'm happy to hear it was a good day, way to go!

    @micaroo4 OK sounds good, just double-checking will it be for this week or next week?

    @865jessica I'm glad the doctor is checking your A1C, if your blood sugar is swinging it can definitely cause that. I hope you can get back in with the NP.

    @trooworld Hugs to you, I'm sorry to hear about your bad day. Did you find out what had happened? It sucks having sleep disrupted you never end up feeling rested when you get up.

    @TeresaW2024 From what I read the link is sent to us tomorrow but we can watch on our own, is that what you understood? Oh no I hope everything is okay with Maggie and it's something that will heal fast. Good luck with the meeting!

    @Veta2018 Haha I'm glad you enjoyed listening to her! Rosemary Gladstar and Herbs with Rosalee https://www.youtube.com/@HerbsWithRosalee Are ones I also follow, Funny they all have similar first names. Rosemary Gladstar teaches in an herb school now but also has come out with various herb books. I have a lot of gardening favs but for herbs they're go to's for me. If you want some fun free herb recipes check out Mountain Rose Herbs, it may be in the blog area but that's where I found the scalp scrub and hair refresher recipes. Yikes I hope the well company solves the problem and it's something small.

    @ninyagwa It will but my Dad tends to watch people work the whole time which would drive me crazy in their shoes so I'm hoping to get him to go home after I'm back. Love you slaying that stairmaster these days, woohoo! Oh my gosh that house sounds terrible, especially that it's a daycare I'm sure there's mold in that basement, yikes!

    @askewcr Oh my goodness I'm so glad you did, I'm glad you're feeling a little better no wonder it was lingering.

    @19shmoo69 Praying for you, hope you're feeling better soon.

    Hi team. I went to the farm for a little this morning and was so exhausted I napped between that and my doctor's appointment. I saw a nurse practitioner (with no red strikes against her) and I liked her a lot so I'm going to stick with her, she's willing to fight for me if there's pharmacy issues. Of course when I was “kicked out” (before the doctor's office straightened it out) I filed a complaint against that pharmacist so they may not want to treat me after that comes out anyway but I'm avoiding the couple people at the pain clinic the pharmacy is not happy with. I moved everything in the yard so it's not in the way for the tree company and have to do a little straightening up but I'm super exhausted and planning to go to bed early. These charity meetings every Thursday night are getting old. Have a great Thursday!

    -tracking is good today, weight isn't going down at all though but I had a big bowl of popcorn late at night two nights ago so that's not helping anything.

    Hello team!

    I had an amazing training yesterday. I learned to weld, which was so cool. We were exploring tech and skilled trades pathways for students in high school. One of my roles is Guidance and helping our grade 8 students plan their transition to secondary.

    I had a teensy weensy success today: I didn’t snack tonight at all. I know those small choices add up, so I just need to keep at it. Basically, my feet and ankles are in constant discomfort so I reminded myself that I have the power to make myself feel better.

    I walked for 90 minutes today on an indoor track while my son had football practice. I’ve been doing it twice a week for a month. Which is great, but I need to get my diet on track to make the most of my active time.

    Anyway, I’m pleased to have a success today. Here’s to another day with more good choices.

    @TeresaW2024 Thank you, I did have a better day! And a colleague brought in cupcakes because of how our day wetn the day before. I did have one lol. Yes, all I need is for my condo to catch fire! LOL How is Maggie today? What did you find out at the vet's? I hope she's okay, poor little girl. OH gosh, I hope your meeting didn't run too long. Did you enjoy time with your great-nieces and nephews?

    @Veta2018 It totally did. We did, too! LOL My husband went out and walked around the building and into the parking lot looking for the source of the smoke but he didn't see anything. I'm sure it was a homeless person starting a fire in the canyon, as there are homeless people living in the canyon. That's good you reported that driver, you could have saved a life! Thank you, I did have a better day yesterday. :) I hope the well company can help fix your water pressure tank problem and it's not too expensive.

    @ninyagwa Yes! Ugh. It was actually not my coworkers but some internet drama: my work has a Facebook page and I had made a post in our group and someone from the public posted some nasty responses and seemed like they were trying to get me in trouble. I did try to let it go and step back and say, "this is an idiot person on the internet" but I just couldn't let it go lol. I do feel better today though. What is "window food"? Fast food? I'm glad you tracked. I'm also glad your cat is feeling better. Oh gosh, that house you and your sister went to see sounds terrible! What a deception!

    @askewcr Oh gosh, I'm sorry to hear that. I hope the new meds help.

    @19shmoo69 How is your wife doing? How are YOU doing? Sorry about the app problems.

    @Katmary71 Thank you! The fire? No, I didn't find out. The firetruck came but that's all I know. I felt so run down yesterday from not sleeping well. I'm glad you got a nap in. That's good the NP is willing to fight for you. Hugs about the weight.

    @megnolia82 That's cool you learned to weld. Small choices do add up, so congrats to you for not snacking! And great that you walked.

    @tfelts147 Way to go, Tim!

    Hi all. My day was better yesterday but I was so exhausted from not sleeping well that I went home early and took a nice nap. I am ready to celebrate National Library Week today: we are having a prize drawing for our students and it's always a fun day. Yesterday was really nice weather: it got up to 80F. I didn't get to enjoy it but I did walk my dogs and it was nice during that period.

    @askewcr Glad you’ve got some diagnosis and medicine for treatment. Feel better!

    @19shmoo69 Sounds like you’ve got a lot going on! Hopefully you’ll find a rhythm that works for you all.

    @Katmary71 I know how hard it can be when you’ve established care somewhere and some of the docs or nurses there are difficult or have the worst bedside manner! I had one practice I went to for prenatal care where a nurse practitioner made me cry, so I made sure I never met with her again.

    @megnolia82 learning to weld does sound cool!

    @trooworld Window Food is Fast Food. I just call it that because it feels more fun for me, and the food does come out a window. I get the internet drama thing, my real estate team has a public Facebook page and every once in a while I have to delete some internet troll’s nasty response to some of the posts, even ones where it’s just highlighting a property they have some nasty remarks.

    This morning did not start off the way I wanted. My almost 6 year old is a little dictator. We were trying to get out of the house early to get my 12 year old daughter to school early, so I suggested a more travel friendly breakfast to the younger one, but she insisted on having cereal with milk, and rather than deal with her 20 minutes snotty cry fest melt down, I gave in. She started it at home, it went into Tupperware and then she finished it at school. Sometimes I’m just no good at negotiating with her, and she’s so strong willed that “putting my foot down” ends up in emotional explosions. We’ll get there, and she was happy when I left her at school. I read somewhere once (and I’m paraphrasing because the idea stuck, not the specific words) that yelling at your kids or fighting with them before school and expecting them to have a good day, or yelling before bed and expecting them to get good sleep, is not realistic. I try to keep that idea in mind when I have to discipline my kids at inopportune moments.
    I had a good food day tracking yesterday, and have been good this week. I had a good workout yesterday, but probably wont have a workout this evening. My weight has been over last week’s all week, but slowly going down, so hopefully tomorrow’s weigh-in will see a drop!
    Happy Thursday!

    @ninyagwa - I'm always surprised how people sell things. You would think, they would at least clean and make it look presentable to get the most profit. Wow, scary that the parents don't observe the smell or appearance of the place their children spend their day. I'm glad your cat is doing better. What's her name? I am looking forward to my workout too. The first 10 minutes is a struggle till my body gets warmed up then it just feels good.
    @askewcr - I'm glad your starting to feel a little better. Struggling with breathing issues can be very scary.
    @Katmary71 - Thanks, I'm currently learning about succession planting. I'm hoping it will help with not producing to many veggies all at once. I love this quote I found... “If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.”-Cicero.
    @megnolia82 - You're making great progress!
    @tfelts147 - Congrats on the loss this week! Well Done!

    My husband asked me to make the calls to have the water pump fixed. One company said it was too small of a job, another said they were too busy, and the other never showed. I googled it and when my husband got home from work, I helped him fix it. We drained the dirt and minerals out of a clogged tube and Woala! He's going to buy a new pressure switch($15), just to be safe and replace it tonight when he gets home. It was a beautiful day yesterday. I got a few hours of gardening time in. Although, I tried to move my bench by myself and broke the leg. :'( Today it's raining so, I'll be doing some house cleaning and reading.

    💪Mission Slimpossible Strong!💪

    @trooworld Congratulations on selling your artwork at the gallery and on FB !! Was the person who bought your art your neighbor? What is your favorite art style? Wow, you live beside the canyon, that must provide some good views. Happy Library Week

    @Veta2018 Your weight loss journey is so inspirational. Thank you for sharing. You look awesome in the baby shower picture. I like your quote about gardening and the library. The past 2 days have been raining for us too. Glad you could get some gardening done. I have a few seeds I need to finish planting. Awesome weight loss this week !!

    @tammymccrady6278 Congrats on weight loss and making it on the leaderboard !! Congrats on your job. How was your first day at the job?

    @txcritter69 Congrats on weight loss this week. Your picture of the eclipse is awesome !! Sorry to hear about your back. I hope you are feeling better now.

    @Katmary71 Aww your nephew is so cute. You are right, he has the best smile. I find eggplants easy. They just need lots of sun. I made the mistake of placing them near tomatoes and they were shaded last year but once I moved them they grew up well. You look awesome in your picture. Epsom salt baths sound fun, I never tried it before. Good to hear that NP is fighting for you.

    @TeresaW2024 Awesome weight loss this week !! I hope the vet visit went well and Maggie is doing ok. Aww how nice to meet your grand nieces and nephews.

    @Cornanda Congrats on making it on the leaderboard. The plant shirt looks awesome. Hope you have a fun time with your parents.

    @littlebabekitty Nice weight loss this week. I like your idea of consequences and rewards. I should start incorporating it as well.

    @AyaTheTyga Nice weight loss. Eid Mubarak !!

    @micaroo4 I hope Rich feels better and I hope you both have a wonderful time in Colorado.

    @ninyagwa Glad to hear your cat's doing good. OMG, that house sounds horrible and people leave their kids there, unbelievable. House hunting has changed so much post-pandemic.

    @vegan4lyfe2012 Aww Sophie looks so cute! Advance happy birthday Sophie !!

    @laurelfit57 Ty is so cute!! Hope you get back on track

    @askewcr Hope you feel better soon.

    @trooworld – I wish it would be a fluke to be up 2#, but I know what I did and I knew better. Depression just got the better of me.
    @Veta2018 – I’m sure I’d have a different opinion if I was in 100% totality. Glad you had that time with your son, though. That makes it worth it all. Nice job fixing the pump!
    @ninyagwa – Glad I wasn’t the only one that thought the eclipse was anticlimactic hahahaha So glad your cat is doing better. And how can a daycare operate in those conditions? Seems like the state would shut them down. How awful for the babies!
    @Katmary71 – Holy smack! A werewolf would’ve been epic! I actually have a story about a big wolf. It was about 20 years ago. I was a smoker back then and didn’t smoke anywhere in the house except when I’d stand at my bedroom window and stick my head out (it was the kind I could open from the top and the screen was only at the bottom half). So there I am, almost midnight, moon almost full, everything around glistening with snow. I’m puffing away. And then a huge animal came running past my window, headed for the woods nearby! We have coyotes around my area, but it was way bigger. I’ll go to my grave telling everyone that it was a wolf! (And one was actually killed here in April when a hunter mistook it for a coyote, so they may very well be in my area.)
    @865jessica – I hope the NP restarted the program. Smart of you to realize you need more support than what you have now.
    @trooworld – Hope you’re having a drama-free day today!
    @TeresaW2024 – I hope Maggie is doing better.
    @askewcr – I hope the medicine clears you up quickly.
    @19shmoo69 – I hope things calm down for you and your family soon.
    @megnolia82 – Nice job on making good small choices! They really do add up!
    @tfelts147 – Woot Woot! Nice loss!
    @Divya365 – Awww Leo looks so handsome!

    Dreary, rainy day here in SW Michigan. Supposed to rain for the next 4 days or so and there’s a flood warning for the St. Joseph River by where Hunter lives. And, of course, I need groceries. All out of my salad fixings. Ugh. I’m exhausted. I feel like I have 2 full time jobs since I pick up Oliver right after work and keep him until Syd gets off work around 10pm. He’s such a sweetie, but this is quite the reminder as to why most 50 year old women don’t have babies LOLs. I’m going to do a little meal planning and I’m thinking I’ll do grocery pick up so I don’t have to get him out in this rain. I hope everyone is having a great Thursday!

    What is your favorite line or line you quote a lot from any movie?

    Most quoted:
    Lauren: You like fruit punch, too, Keith?
    Keith: Yeah, I do like fruit punch.

    Hunter or I will say the first line and the other will say the second. It's from a Christian movie called Unidentified from 2006. It's one of those comfort movies that has been on repeat in my household so often that I have two copies of it and I also bought Hunter her own copy when she moved out. We've probably watched it at least 300 times.

    Glad this week is coming to a close! Got plenty of movement, but feeling sleep deprived and emotionally exhausted, its been difficult resisting comfort foods. So I allowed myself a bit of chips and chocolate, then firmly closed the gates. Unfortunately, I can still see them ...

    What is your favorite line or line you quote a lot from any movie?
    Wouldn't call them favorites, but they've definitely been used more than once! :D
    May the force be with you and the forever classic ... frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.

    We are in Colorado. This is my first time here. It's very brown. Houses all seem to be brown. Not many trees. Beautiful mountains. Yesterday was a long, tough, travel day. And I started coming down with Rich's cold, which was bound to happen. Rich seems better, but still coughing.
    We're on vacation, so I intend to push through and do some exploring. Today, Garden of the Gods. We are within walking distance.

    @ninyagwa Ah yes! Yeah, trolls are the worst! I'm sorry you have to deal with it on occasion as well. I don't blame you for giving in, that would be difficult for me, I'm a softy. That's great you've had a good food day and good week. And good workout, wow, great day!

    @Veta2018 Wow, you guys are incredible! Congrats on fixing it yourself. You probably saved a lot of money! I'm glad you got some gardening time in.

    @Divya365 Congrats on the loss! Thank you. The person who bought my art in person was a neighbor about 12-15 years ago, believe it or not! The person who bought it on FB is actually my sister-in-law but insists on paying for it (I was willing to gift it to her but no, she wants to pay). My favorite art style...that's tough because I can appreciate almost all styles. I would say abstract art, surrealist art, or abstract expressionism. I do NOT like it when there is just a black canvas, or just a white canvas, and they are calling that art lol. I love living next to the canyon: we see red-shouldered hawks and other birds flying back and forth in the air and into their nests which are in the trees. There are houses on the other side of the canyon but it's mostly a great view. Thank you! :D I'm sorry about your back. Good job tracking and pretracking, woo hoo! Aww, Leo is adorable! So handsome!

    @vegan4lyfe2012 Awww, sorry honey. HUGS. I did have a drama-free day yesterday, it was actually a fun day! Sounds like you need some sunshine. Are you doing crafts? That might help with the depression. It sounds like you may be too busy to craft right now. How long are you taking care of baby Oliver? I forget.

    @askrewcr Congrats on the loss. I hope you are starting to feel better.

    @reshii_devi I hope this next week is easier to resist the comfort foods.

    @Cornanda I hope all goes well, Lisa.

    THURSDAY ICE BREAKER QUESTION: What is your favorite line or line you quote a lot from any movie? My memory is like swiss cheese lol so this is tough for me. I don't remember any. If I can think of anything, I'll post it.

    Hi all. We had a great turnout for the National Library Week drawing and 3 happy winners. I am doing okay. My scale is giving me trouble this morning, @Katmary71, I may have to weigh in tomorrow (or use last week's weight) as I am not sure my scale is still alive and may need to order a new scale. I'm charging it now but it doesn't look like it's charging. Grrrrr. Stay tuned.

    Good morning! Sorry that I didn’t check in yesterday. I was busy typing up the minutes from our meeting, which went extra long. I also had to work on graphics for upcoming things we do for the church. I read all your posts, so I’m caught up. :) The vet visit for Maggie was informative. It seems little dogs have issues with their kneecaps coming out of the socket in which they sit. At this time, Maggie can put her kneecap back where it belongs, and she is doing much better and not limping as often. If it ever becomes a real issue, we might have to do surgery. I hope not! 😬I listened to Mel Robbin’s 1st video, “Make it Happen.” Her main focus was discussing my goals for the next six months. I have decided on the following:
    1. Get back into Onderland by losing 50 lbs. In 6 months, it is doable, but it will take some real dedication.
    2. Spend more quality time with Joe - I don’t want him to die and then be upset that we didn’t at least try to make more memories and share more laughs. I bought a Scrabble game last night for us! :)
    3. Deepen my relationship with God—My Bible sits next to me up open, and I have several books that I want to read. I will set up a time each day dedicated just to Him.
    4. Be more mindful of my spending - Since taking over our finances, I have no one to reign me in with my impulse spending. I will work on stopping that bad habit and save some money! :D

    What is your favorite line or line you quote a lot from any movie?

    From Rainman - I’m an excellent driver :D
    I say this one mainly when I’m in the car with my sister and make some stupid driving mistake. :D

    @Veta2018 Our older cat’s name is Sparkles (or Lady Glitter Sparkles) which is what my older daughter named her when she was 5, she’s an all black cat. I named our second cat Diva because she meowed at me the entire 1.5 hour drive home and didn’t stop until I held her. Hooray for the at home fix, sounds muuuch cheaper!

    @Divya365 Leo is so pretty after his grooming! Hope your back is feeling better.

    @vegan4lyfe2012 Grocery pickup is a great idea for those “I don’t really want to shop today” days, and I might actually schedule my own, you’re an inspiration! It’s dreary and blustery and rainy here in New Hampshire today.

    @Katmary71 Hope you had a good board meeting!

    @reshii_devi At least you found a silver lining with plenty of movement!

    @micaroo4 Garden of the Gods, sounds like I need to see pics!

    @trooworld My scale might need to be replaced, I had to stand on it 5 times today until 2 weights were the same to track!

    @TeresaW2024 Your goals seem achievable and impactful!

    Today is going swimmingly, I mean I could probably swim in the parking lot at work with all this rain, but it’s not a bad day. I forgot my phone at home when I dropped my daughter off at before school care, so I had to go back and get it, but my husband is home today so I got to see him again. I’ve had a bunch of meetings today, but they actually yielded results and didn’t bore me to tears, which usually happens. I have about 20 minutes of bandwidth for meetings and then I’m looking to do anything else.
    Hope you all are having a lovely Friday and have a spectacular weekend!

    Thursday Ice Breaker Question
    What is your favorite line or line you quote a lot from any movie?

    Favorite quote from movie is "Life is not the amount of breaths you take, it's the moments that take your breath away."- Hitch
    Most often used quote from movie is “There's no place like home.” - The Wizard of Oz
    I'm an Introvert, A homebody. I can go days without leaving my house.

    @reshii_devi - You're making progress with resisting comfort foods. It gets easier. I put those tempting foods on the top shelf out of my site and reach.
    @Cornanda - I hope everything goes well with your parents visit.
    @micaroo4 - We drove 16 hours straight on our trip to Colorado. I took lots of pictures of the beautiful mountains, only to be disappointed in all the boring pictures of the same thing. There's nothing like the view in person. Coming from someone who looks around and sees miles of corn fields...hehehe. I hope you enjoy your vacation.
    @trooworld - I like to draw more of a nature style. I prefer to draw animals and scenery. I would definitely find the red-shouldered hawks impressive. I still get excited whenever I see a deer in my yard, and it's a common thing. Happy National Library Week!!!
    @TeresaW2024 - I listened to Mel Robbin’s 1st video. I feel like a lot of the things I want, in the next six months, have already been set in motion.
    -Health & Wellness- I built healthy habits and lost 47 pounds.
    -Money - I payed off some debts and have a great credit score.(818)
    -Relationships(Love, Family, Friends)- I've been working on new traditions to bring the family closer.
    -Happiness- I practice Self love by doing things I love.(gardening and reading)
    -Purpose, Spirituality, Meaning- I've been working towards daily prayer, participating in a Bible study, and practicing mindfulness.
    I have the energy and motivation to make things happen. I've done this in many aspects of my life. Now that I have this energy and momentum, I want to keep it in motion. Training #1 has helped me discover there are so many more things I want. However, I keep doing things alone. I tried to draw others in, with similar interests, but all my attempts have failed. You have great goals. I believe #3 will help get you there. My favorite verse- I can do all things through Him who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13.

    I'm looking for a partner for next week's group "Partner Walking Challenge". Is anyone interested in joining my team?

    💪Mission Slimpossible Strong!💪

    @TeresaW2024 I'm glad you got some info from the vet. I hope she never has to have surgery! Those are good goals/things to focus on.

    @Ninyagwa Congrats on the loss! Yeah it might! LOL Mine is definitely dead. I ordered a new one, will be here tomorrow.

    @Veta2018 I do some nature-ish styles, too, but probably not like you. I have a variety of styles. I would love to see some of your stuff! The hawks are super interesting: they get in fights with the crows (the crows always start it!). I remember seeing deer when I lived in Ohio, they are so cool looking. Thank you! I wish you luck with the walking challenge, I'm afraid I'm out of that because of my plantar fasciitis.

    @Katmary71 and all: I can't weigh in today, my scale is definitely dead. I ordered a new one and it will be here tomorrow morning, so Kat, you can either take my last weight (245.4) or I can weigh in when I get my scale tomorrow. Thanks for understanding.
