    I managed to get rid of the sync error, but my Fitbit has died 2x in the past week. :( I've not been very good this past week. This coming week, we have testing...then next week, I am on my own and working from home. :) Our first week is going to be easy...not getting a full caseload, and only getting the people that we see twice a year. Getting time to settle in, and will be shadowing the more complicated cases for a few more weeks.

    I hope your testing goes okay. Once work schedule settles in you will be able to get your walking in.

    Yeah!!! it finally rained. This is the first rain we have had since the snow left. Probably not enough to lift the Fire Ban for the long weekend, but everything looks clean and the dust is settled for a few hours!!

    Glad to see you all sticking to it and doing well this month! The last 2 weeks were a whirlwind here. I thought I would get to be better during my first week at home, but I had to spend most of the week at my desk reviewing my cases. I was given 88 charts to become familiar with. I have absolutely no idea where I'm at, but I know it's not good...I didn't even hit 2 miles some days!!! Here we go:

    15- 1.47
    16 - 2.39
    17 - 2.79
    18 - 2.31
    19 - 2.51
    20 - 2.94
    21 - 5.03
    22 - 2.51
    23 - 1.73
    24 - 0.92 (My fitbit died and I didn't realize it until late in the day when I checked.)
    25 - 2.58
    26 - 2.35
    27 - 4.73

    Total = 81.0, 3/10, 5/12 (I stopped counting formal workouts, but I'm pretty sure I didn't have any! LOL)

    mlh37214 ....Once you settle into a routine your workouts will come back. Make sure you don't overwork. I make that mistake sometimes when I work from home, I want to finish something and think it will only take another half hour !!

    Week 4 = 27.8 miles = 104.8 running total

    So made one goal 10 days over 10,000 steps. I am over 100 miles and would have had better steps yesterday but a revolving door of company yesterday afternoon.... but you have to have that once in awhile too!

    And rain.... rain and rain !! Yeah = we needed it. We planted potatoes and the ground was dry.

    I hope everyone is have a great weekend.

    Great advice Lilymay! I have a coworker that I've been instant messaging with and we tell each other when we are reaching 5...the end of our work day. The bf also gets home from work at about quarter til, and he's always hungry, so I wrap up when I'm supposed to, to either go and get something or get something cooking! I keep thinking there are 2 things that I would like to get done this weekend (long holiday) but haven't allowed myself to go to the office and turn on that computer at all!

    We had a good day yesterday, went for a walk, shopping, and what seemed like a lot of activity. Got home, only to find a dead fitbit...yesterday's # was only .84. I forgot to look at the page before this to get my running total, so I will do that when I check in either tomorrow or Tuesday. Not to wish the days away, but I'm ready for June and to get back in a routine!!!
