Hello everyone, I started my workout early this morning. It was a tad cooler for a bicycle ride. ST was a little harder since my shoulders have been giving me grief. But good news is my knees are doing well!
Someone in another group asked...
What habit do you want to break, what is your plan this week to start to change it and how do you plan on continuing?
I really need to cut out chips again! I have a one day streak so far!
I'm not sure how to combat it other than finding something else crunchy like pickles. Does anyone have any good Ideas?
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Thanks! That sure is a peaceful pic you posted! Beautiful!

@Tabatha_Cain hope the day went okay?
@Patti241, today has been showery and fogged in or cloudy!! I am HOPING I can get in a walk around the area in just over a half hour as I throw the wash in. I need to dress to do laundry (we don't have them in our units) for me it's a floor below or above (high rise). So while it washes I'll walk, while it dries I have a tiny bit of housework I can do. I normally have help on Tuesday, but she's on vacation tomorrow. She NEEDS it LOLOLOLOL and Oscar PLAY HARD!! She wears him out for me, she's younger by quite a bit and he LOVES to be chased, by HER!! LOLOL I get to laughing so hard!! I never understand though I watch her how she EVER gets my place into 100 TIP TOP SHAPE in only 2 hours with all the fooling around we do, but SHE DOES!!1 -

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Things were hectic yesterday so I was not able to respond to all my groups. We got a new puppy. See photo below.
She is an English Golden Retriever and she is 12 weeks old. Born May 2, 2024. She is definitely a handful and it is tiring. Today I want to sleep all day. I am so tired. Since my husband and my bonus son are working full time I am the one taking her out to go potty all the time. Every couple of hours I am taking her. Which is a lot. I am hoping that things will be ok when I start work on the 12th, so that I can work and not have to have the dog in here with me.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I am doing good. I am tired today, but otherwise good. This puppy is exhausting.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday
Tabatha

@Aalley5, I am over the summer!! But as you may remember LOL I ADORE Winter!! I hope the Dr appointment went well!!!
@Tabatha_Cain,, awwww your puppy is SO CUTE!! OH MY!!! Oh yes they are a TON of work when babies, as a human baby is!! Yesterday I was looking at Oscar and thinking "I MISS HIS KITTENHOOD, or DO I?" And I laughed they are adorable, but THANKFULLY they grow up in my mind, to quick!! YET so thankful they do!! Oscar is a kitty you'd THINK it'd be easier, but he's a kitty on steroids!! He's so cute, that's his saving grace, but he's part Siamese, the YOWL LOL I am afraid my neighbors will think he's being hurt, when he's just YOWLING because HE CAN!! Awww enjoy that sweet pup!! Does it have a name? Awww look at that sweet face!! TO CUTE!! CONGRATS!!
@Patti241 we got a few rain showers today and looks another one is about to hit us. But, in NH and VT (both are in the local news area, sort of we border NH which does VT) . HOPING Saturday will be NICE!! I am holding a BBQ at a local park for 5 of us, IF IT STAYS at 5, LOL it has grown.
@Kuritize those on the Rain Dancers team would LOVE THAT!!! And it's true. Many of us grew up hearing "Don't cry over spilled milk." Just take care of things and go on.
Today was nice!! The weather not as much, but it didn't stop me from enjoying life. I've upped my steps quite a bit this challenge. Tracking my food, I WANT THE WEIGHT GONE!! The surgery did me so much good!

What a cute puppy 😍
The rain is torrential at the moment. I had thought of trying a short walk to the pharmacy and back but my husband went to collect my prescription for me, before it started raining thankfully, I'll just walk around the flat because I'm really not up for playing in puddles like Pooh & Piglet 🌧️

@BodyTalking , Glad your H got the prescription. I often walk around in my unit. Its a very teeny one, but hehehehe it has the best view which is why I wanted it. I had visited a neighbor in the high rise I live in, and WOW!! I wanted this! When it came up WOOHOO!!! But, yes teeny teeny. Do you find walking inside (you probably have a lot more room) your calves look AMAZING? I weigh 180 and mine look SO GOOD!! Now for the rest of me to catch up!! That video is funny!! TY TY TY!
@Patti241 today mine went AMAZING!! One small glitch, and it worries me, but yet, it was amazing day also! Any plans this weekend? Tomorrow is the BBQ I organized.
@Aalley5, good advice there and from my post to @Patti241 its the way life 99% of the time. LOVE the days that are smooth and enjoyable!! Glad yours was good and WOOHOO on the exercise! WTG!!

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well. Oh man is this puppy keeping me busy. She is a littler feral. She did not have a lot of human interaction I don't think. She suffers pretty bad with pack mentality. So any time we try to take something from her she tries to attack us, or she will attack another dog if they get too close to her food. I did call a trainer and she gave us some suggestions. So we are working on it and it is going a bit better. She still likes to bite us a lot and I bruise easy so I have a lot of bruises on my arms and scratches from sharp puppy claws and teeth. We have a vet appointment today and I am going to ask about what we should do about that. We pulled out the pool for the puppy and she absolutely loves it. Being she is a English Golden Retriever she loves water. So we filled the pool like 4 inches deep and she runs around in circles biting at the water and growling having a ball. Then comes inside and falls asleep for a while. Gives us a little bit of free time. Here are some more pictures of her. We have named her Chloe.
The last photo is after her first bath because she laid in the mud. That was the first photo.
@aalley5 - Oh she is definitely defiant. She totally likes to chew on us rather than toys. I bruise easy so I have a lot of bruises.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - We have named her Chloe. She is a handful. I can guarantee you are not missing out on the Kitty phase anymore. I have a howler as well. He is part Maine Coon and he howls when he wants attention.
@BodyTalking - I would definitely stay out of puddles. Those can ruin your shoes. That was nice of your hubby to grab your meds before it started raining.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday.
Tabatha

Lol, @Dianedoessmiles1 😂 I need to get a full length mirror to admire my calves. Funnily enough, that part of my body, and ankles, have always been slim and look good. My flat is just 50 sq metres, so not a lot of space, nor a good view, just another building, although, if I sit right against the window, I can see part of a tree lined square at the end of the street. No direct sunshine either, which is tough. Sunshine and a nice view can make a huge difference.0
