Linda sorry to hear about your FIL. Dahlia I am being post challenged too. I have been logging food and exercise but I am sure I missed a calorie or two along the way since I am so busy. My main job is part-time, steady but doesn't pay as well as my profession which was hit by the downturn. Finally I got a job in my field also part-time, not steady but much better paid so I have been juggling 2 main jobs. I also have 2 small jobs that I needed since my 1st job was part-time and low pay. So I have 4 jobs but one (teaching art) is on holiday Yay! So I am getting on here as much as I can. I picked up my daughter and her friend last night from the airport for winter break and we will have my husbands birthday party tonight. So alot of celebrating. Next weekend we go for an overnight to celebrate our 30th anniversary on our 31st anniversary (last year I was working too much to get away with a seasonal job).
Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Yes

Ladies - Saturday I will be posting a new Daily Check In for Winter. I hope to see you all there!! So - How did the fall go?
For me, it was better than the summer. I exercised more. I am down to 204.5 and my goal was199. I will keep plugging along until it happens. Hope to get to working out consistency for 5 days and not 3 one week and 5 the next. Eating - keep trying to get my portions under control and make better choices when eating out.0 -

Took my husband to the ER yesterday afternoon. At 230am he was diagnosed with pneumonia and a bladder infection. He was hospitalized. I'm glad we are finally getting somewhere. In the meantime, my daughter has an appt at 240 today - possibly a sinus infection. Luckily it is high 40 - low 50's today and I am opening windows and airing this place out...LOL Washing sheets, floors, etc... I hope I get through this without getting sick. If I don't catch something for hanging out in the ER waiting room for 5 hours I will be surprised - yep a total of 9-1/2 hours in the ER.:noway: I will keep you posted.:bigsmile:
I'm glad I got most of my shopping done early 0 -

I hope they find out what is wrong with hubby, that's a long time to be sick. Make sure

getting sick twice. Hang in there my friend. :flowerforyou:
