Goals for June 26:
1. WATER and LOTS of it!--Did okay.
2. Healthy choices and log all my foods.--Yes.
3. Go for a walk or do a workout--at least 30 minutes!--Not a walk--pulled weeds, etc. for a couple of hours, though.
4. Bed by 9:30.--Yes.
Well, just as I had decided that I wouldn't mind a cut in hours and made plans for various things, I got called and my hours are back to their usual. I do wish that my coworkers hadn't been laid off, though!
For Steph--(My mom used to say this all the time when we complained about the dishes. I know what you mean! They are NEVER done and there are ALWAYS some in the sink! And we DO have a dishwasher!)
Thank God For Dirty Dishes
Author Unknown
Thank God for dirty dishes;
They have a tale to tell.
While others may go hungry,
We're eating very well
With home, health, and happiness,
I shouldn't want to fuss;
By the stack of evidence,
God's been very good to us. (Hope I don't sound preachy! Dishes are the ONLY part of housework that I DON'T mind doing! HATE sweeping the most!)
My daughter was looking for the guitar lessons and as far as I know she never followed through!
Momma--I used to roadbike all the time but now I use an electric trike (leg problems and also I'm not getting any younger! LOL!) Anyway, I used to walk and workout every day but lately I have been very lazy--or more tired--I'm not sure which!
Teresa--(and others) I drink mine hot most of the time--once in a great while I'll have the coffee iced. My nighttime drink is always chamomile tea, though--hot.
Leela--once my kids were old enough I only cooked breakfast when we had it for dinner! They didn't want a cooked breakfast in the morning anyway. Their goal was to stay in bed until the last possible moment!
Goals for June 27:
1. Water.
2. Healthy choices and track my foods.
3. Bed by 9:30.0 -

Have a great day, everyone!0 -
Momma, sometimes I do eat according to unplanned meals! I can have everything planned to the T and then something will take me off course. you can't always predict what's going to happen. but I try to think about every circumstance that can (and usually do) come up!0

Missed a couple days... :blushing:
June 29:
1) Shred D1L3
2) BFBM
3) Eat well - No excuses, cause I already made my dinner and it's not even noon!
4) Plan a lesson outline for my tutoring session
Mommawarrior... Mmm... Iced coffee... again, I only like the flavoured ones though. Don't really like the plain coffee (even with milk and sugar) taste. SUNSCREEN!! :noway:
pmjsmom... Thanks for sharing that poem! I love it. I wanna print it out and put it right in front of the sink! :happy: I enjoy sweeping. I don't like to vacuum, nor do things that involve the effort of having to retrieve something - mopping comes to mind. You gotta get the water, get the mop, put on shoes. It's too much work in general. With sweeping, it's the broom, pan, and you're done!
Right on!! :drinker: Sorry about the stress at work. Have some chamomile. :flowerforyou:My nighttime drink is always chamomile tea, though--hot.
Teresa... Lift those weights! :happy: Good luck with work!
JAG1224... "Make healthy choices while out today with my family " That's a good one!
therobinator... "Attend Muay Thai class. " AWESOME! "Scoop the kitty llitter boxes. " :laugh:0 -
Hope everyone is having a great day.....just taking a little break from my unplanned cleaning spree. I hardly slept at all last night and woke up with a terrible headache, so no farm for me today. I did manage to get in a 6 mile run. I decided no matter how I felt, I was running, even if I puked my guts up (I didn't though, thank GOD!)
Leela, circumstances always come up just when we think we are good to go.....unplanned meals.....still laughing over that.
pmjsmom....TAKE YOUR LUNCH FROM HOME RELIGIOUSLY! Don't fall into that trap of "it will be okay this time I guess". I take my lunch everyday cause the guys on the farm eat out EVERY and I mean EVERY meal. At first they thought I was a nut taking my sandwich in where ever we go, but I didn't care and now they just know better than to even ask if I want anything.
Steph, can I please get an iced coffee? Oh yeah, hold the sunscreen please!
