@Tabatha_Cain , How did door dash go? How did the chiro go and the interview? Today was nice, I joined a Silver Sneaker core exercise class today online, that was good for me!! I NEED one on balance!! I think you all know my left foot is not normal size, it does create issues.

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Wednesday and it is going to be a great day. I am scheduled to doordash from 12 to 3:30 today I believe. I am hoping I make decent money. It is raining today, so the weather is going to be yucky I think. I will figure it out though. I am hoping I can make it through the day without a nap. That would be nice. Yesterday I think I napped once.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Door dash went alright. It was not hardly busy at all. My interview went well. They said I should know soon. The chiro was great at well. That is awesome that you joined the silver sneaker class. I do think you have mentioned your foot before.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday.

@Tabatha_Cain , Tuesday I think are the slowest day for people eating out. Weds though it picks up some. How did today go? I'd imagine the best day would be Friday for people at work ordering food well that is if the majority of people get their check deposited etc. on Friday. SO HAPPY now a days we do not need to go during lunch to a bank and spend most of it waiting and waiting in line using up our lunch break! Rarely do I do see anyone at the bank I use. Its been there for an eon of time, but how? No clue on that either!! Hopefully you'll hear about the job soon. Yes, Silver Sneakers is pretty neat! I am enjoying it.
@Patti241, LOL not like we get a choice huh? This coming week back in the lower 80s, but I'll take that any day over the 90s!
@Aalley5, are you heading to the ocean? Swimming in your future? I am surprised how much I enjoyed swimming again!! Last year when a friend and I went, we were in the ocean for about an hour and my core temp dropped to low. YO!! Scared me!! But I just swam and swam this week with no issues. It was in the high 80s, low 90s when I started to get chilled to much I went out of the water and was fine. Hope your knees feel better today? Are you bone on bone?0 -

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Thursday and it is going to be a good day today. I can tell. I am hoping that things will be a little bit busier with Door dash today. Yesterday I literally made like $12.75 for 2 hours. Not a good day. Weird though because Wednesday are also a payday so you would think it would be a bit busier.
@aalley5 - I do hope those cushion shots work for your knees.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Yesterday was super slow for me. I did not make that much. I am hoping for better today. I do think Fri, Sat, and Sun will probably be my busier days. I am hoping I hear something soon from AAA. It would be nice to be offered the job.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Thursday.

Diane: Yeah we don't have any choice. It was better outside yesterday so I was able to mow the back lawn.

Good afternoon all. Another warm day in Amarillo. Kayla and I did get a walk in. I am really trying to get back on track. Today set timer so I get up and move and get away from computer. Been very lazy and tired and watching too much TV. Well I need to move. Hugs all. Have a great rest of the day.

@Tabatha_Cain if persistence were a job you'd be HIGH UP in the rank!! You keep going and doing your best. That shows the character you have!! Its so good to be a leader with you!! WTG hon on NOT GIVING UP!!!
@Patti241, I MISS at times mowing the lawn. It smells so good as one does so.
@Aalley5, NEAT I like that video!!!
@Kurtize, is it the heat that has you not wanting to move around? Thankfully this weekend the humidity will be LOW!! I want to get out though not yet quite sure what I'll do. A friend and I haven't hung around, I think a beach walk is needed!1 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Friday and well it is going to be whatever it will be. I am going to have to get my exercises going and stay strong in those. I have to get them done. I cannot slack any longer.
@aalley5 - That is awesome. So glad you were able to go that exercise program with modification. That is definitely a step forward.
@Kurtize - I hope it is not too warm for you today. I have to get back on track as well. I have to do something. I have to get away from the tv.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Sometimes I don't do my best. Last night I had a slice of pizza with a slice of italian cheese bread for dinner, and for lunch I had a double chocolate muffin that was 710 calories. So I know I did not do my best yesterday. I stepped on the scale and gained weight. That really stung. I am a bit depressed from not having a job. So I am eating junk again.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Friday.

Not much new, Kayla and I went for a walk at 8:30, then shopping and to Goodwill, gave away some exercise equipment I haven't used in a year and decided I most likely will not use them so away they went. Other than that nothing new here except right now it is 97. Hugs and blessings all.

@Tabatha_Cain , How did Sat and Fri go Tabatha? Hope you are okay.
@Patti241, I do miss the smell of freshly mowed grass, not sure why I do not smell it here when they do it, ohhhh YEAH!! LOL My AC is on and windows closed! Hehehehe! But, I DO enjoy it.
@Aalley5, GREAT JOB!! WOOHOO!! My surgery also did me a world of good too!! Nice to hear how well you are doing!! For the Olympics I LOVE Swimming, diving (WAY MUCH SO) and gymnastics. Did you all know when I was in HS I was on the schools gymnastic team? In my Senior year I was the Captain!! My Favorite was the uneven bars! ITs a special feeling FLYING in the air and do a spin gravity FREE for a moment!! SO COOL!!! I could do well enough also on vault (key for me was to do a simple vault, but do it perfectly!! Hehehehehe some would vaults they at times couldn't hit right, and well POINTS OFF for that!! Stick with what I knew well, and SCORE!!! I had a floor routine, but LOL others were WAY better than I was!! And I did NOT AT ALL like the balance beam!! YOu have to be able to see well enough, and that held me back!!
@Kurtize, WOOHOO on going for the walk early!! HI Kayla!!How's she doing? Oh NO DOUBT someone will LOVE the exercise equipment!! I guess 97 is better than 103? YO!! SO HOT!2 -
@Dianedoessmiles1- Thats awesome and fun to know about gymnastics! In HS, during Phy Ed we had to try everything. Also went to a lot of meets with a friend that was on the judging panel. I absolutely love watching athletes and respect the art.
Today my NSV was the first time in a year that I finally passed 10,000 steps!

Good Afternoon Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this evening. joe and I had church in person today and we did not get up in enough time to get all my morning chats done. So I am finishing them now. I got the phone call Friday that I am being offered the work from home position with AAA. The official offer letter will come Monday. I am so excited. I cannot wait. Joe and I have 6 days until we head out of town and have a little mini honeymoon. We are only going up North a bit and staying and we will have 4 days to do whatever and the 4 days of Unity. So we will be in a hotel for 8 days. That is going to be awesome. I will be taking my laptop so I will still be doing all my morning things and we will be taking our scale. So there should be no issue with weighing when I need to. I think.
@Kurtize - That is awesome that you donated some exercise equipment. I wish people would do that around here. They usually try to sell it and want an arm and a leg for it. I would love to be able to get an inexpensive treadmill. That would be great.
@aalley5 - It definitely got hot quick. Sorry you have so much smoke from the wild fires.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Saturday was not good. Literally hardly anything, but we did have a festival in town so that may have had something to do with it. I am doing alright. I did get hired for the AAA remote job. So I will be working from home starting August 12. That is awesome that you were captain of the team.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.

@aalley5 , OH HOW COOL you got to travel with your friend who was a judge!! AND WOOHOO On your
