Morning all! Love the googledoc, dead easy to do and takes some of the pressure of the head of house. Good work Azsuzi!
Am off sales shopping today, hope I don't crack and hit starbucks beause of the stress!0 -

I'm new here I'd definitely like to join Ravenclaw xD 0 -
Hey everyone! I want to give this a try: I made a google documents spreadsheet for our weigh-ins. You would go there each week to log your own weight and other stats. Here's the link - save it as a favorite so you can find it again:

Let me know what you think...
Don't mind me over here in Ravenclaw I think that's a fantastic idea! I think it would be great even just when someone's going to be out of town or busy for a short while, then it won't be such a pain to go back and sort through lots of week's worth of posts. Good thinking! 0 -
If you're lucky enough to be a part of Pottermore Beta, and haven't been on for awhile, you should go check it out again! Dueling is up and super fun, and the potion brewing doesn't take as long so it's a bit more fun.
I'm excited 0 -

OK - **deep breath** - here's where we stand... I wasn't sure if there were any takers for the Head of House post, so I went ahead and set up the google doc to track our weigh-ins. Its going to take some maintenance from the HoH though - adding newcomers and making sure formulas aren't deleted - that kind of stuff. Then in one day, kellyisfat, lottee1000 and emmie_rene all volunteered! :laugh:
I'm going to leave it up to you three to decide who's going to take over. In the meantime, I will keep and eye on the google doc and make sure it's working. I can handle it for the next two weeks, but then things are going to get busy for me.
House challenges for this week - let's go back to basics:
Food: Earn 1 OWL for each day you drink at least 8 glasses of water a day (I've seen some of us are having trouble getting the water in again!
)
Exercise: Take 5 exercise breaks each day. Work these in when you take a bathroom break, during commercials or whenever you can throughout the day. Do some squats, wall push-ups, sit-ups, jog in place - whatever you feel like doing. Earn 1 OWL each day you take 5.
Spirit: Earn 1 OWL each day you drop by the common room and leave a post.
Inter-house challenge: Earn 1 House Point for each minute of exercise you do throughout the week.
When you weigh in this weekend, go to the google doc and enter your weight in column E, your total OWLs in column F and your total house points in column G. The formulas will do the rest of the work. ***PLEASE NOTE: at the bottom of the doc, there are 5 tabs labeled Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4 and Summary. Make sure you are logging your stats on the correct tab. For instance, this weekend you will log on the Week 1 tab. If you want to see where you stand for the month, you can click on the Summary tab and take a look, but don't enter any data on that tab - its all formulas!
That's about all for now. Kelly, Lottee and Emmie - when you decide who's going to take over, let me know! Thanks!!0 -
just a quick good morning Ravenclaw. very cold morning here in central Pennsylvania.
sue-great work in setting things up for the new Hoh and the rest of us!!
hope everyone has a great day!! :bigsmile:0 -
Good morning everyone. I had a pretty good day yesterday. Having a bit of a hard time getting going since it is 20 degrees here in Georgia. I will check in later!0

Morning all (well, it's afternoon here, but I only just got up!)... Yesterday was a bad food day, am hoping to make up for it with exercise today, but I can't do that until I do some work, and I can't do work until my hard-drive is fixed, which I can't do. Can I fix a hard-drive with superglue?! Am going to give it a go! Will message the others about HoH as well, happy Wednesday (hump day) Ravenclaws! xx0

Hello! Definitely happy to see some new Ravenclaws in our midst! Welcome to lalaloserpant and mish3131! 0 -
Oh man, thank you thank you thank you for the challenges! I need to seriously drown myself in water, lol, and it's amazing to have some challenges again that might help kick me in the rear and get me moving. Those five breaks should be an excellent way to make me start getting in the habit of some exercise before launching into something a little more serious again. 0

Hey Ravenclaw!! So, I posted challenges yesterday and what did I do? Totally forgot all about them today!! I'm like you, Kelly - I'm struggling to get back into my healthy eating and exercise routine. Ah, well - I'll try again tomorrow!
I hope you all are having a fabulous day!0 -
Apparently I've missed a lot in the ast couple of days. I thought we weren't changing the OWLs until the beginning of next week... not on Tuesday. Now I'm all confused.
And the google doc thing? Is that on someone's profile?
Went hiking with my brother on Monday. First time in YEARS. Was a lot of fun, until we hit a steep trail. Darn near killed me. Now I feel all sorts of muscles in my legs, even my ankles!
At my new job I go up and down stairs about 6 times a day. Don't log the minutes though; seems too short to count. Love the new job. Hopefully on the weekend I can figure out what's happened to this place. It's all turned upside down.
Have a good one!0
