Family is so important. They teach us so many lessons growing up.
What did you learn from your parents?
I learned:- Honesty is often the best policy. If you did something wrong and owned up to it, the punishment was always less.
- When you give your word, stick to it.
- A good marriage is not about love, but trust, commitment, communication and often putting your partners need (not like, but need) before your own. (I'm still happily married after 27 years, so I think I learned this one well
)

Exercised?: Yes. Walked 3.1 Km in 24 mins (hills).
Calories?: Yes.
Tracked?: Yes.
Pre-breakfast short walk. Busy day with drone race time trials and flying out to the UK. (Writing this in the airport lounge)
I am now officially not the slowest drone racer in the club. Yay! I still need to do large repairs on the drone as too many hard landing have cracked the frame. Boo!
Unfortunately now 24+ hours of flying ahead of me (cattle class). May be unable to report in tomorrow, but I will try from the airport lounge in Dubai.

All of yours Craig and my parents favorite quote "God doesn't give you more than you can handle."
Let's just say that quote many a time pushes my buttons.3 -

Another lesson I learnt along the way, keep trying, being determined!!!!4 -
Hmmmm, nice topic for a Sunday as we approach the holidays. I learned so much from my parents it would be very difficult to detail all of it here. My father was a bombardier in WW2 and attended USC on the GI Bill before I was born. This was a unique opportunity for him as he came from a very poor family and he made the most of it. Between his education and his courage I had some tough shoes to fill. He had no son and so being the oldest between my sister and I he lavished me with attention and I have to say training. Honesty, independence, grace under pressure, curiosity and an open mind. He left me a diary he wrote during his 36 missions over Germany and it was after he died that I realized exactly how brave he really was and so I try to be brave too. My mother was a fabulous woman and taught me how to care for my family and throw a great party!!!
I've been happily married for almost 40 years, my parents reached 60 years and so I'm hoping for the same....LOL Here's a pic of my husband and I during yesterdays Thanksgiving Feast at our house with his family and our daughter.
Hope you all have a great Sunday and a warm, family filled holiday season!

Ate some leftovers today from our dinner yesterday and still stayed under calories. I've lost almost 2 lbs this week so I'm going back into maintenance again. I know some of the loss was just eating light after dental surgery but I managed to get the 5 cushion pounds off I wanted plus a couple extra so I'm going try to stop losing for now.
Exercise: Yes, 46 min walk with the dog. Planned on going to the gym but was really too tired so walked instead
Calories: Yes, easily under
Tracking: Yes, even the leftovers!

Thanks to @craigo3154 for his help during my vacation in Central America.

I'm the oldest child of teenage parents, so what I learned was to take care of myself and siblings. I developed independence and industriousness. I don't thank them for that, but I made the most of the situation.

My life lesson and biggest pet peeve. Don’t complain unless you’re doing something about it. If you can’t do anything about it then find a better way of looking at it. Life is only as good as you make it.1 -

@dejavuohlala thanks for the kind words. Unfortunately the Cleveland clinic heart center has been part of our lives for the last 13 years.
@LuluNacia congratulations on the scale being where you want it to be.!!
Three yesses for Sunday 11-19.
My dad was my idol. He grew up in orphanages and reform schools. Worked every job imaginable and through the help of the GI Bill went to college and ended up the a PHd. He ran a 1/2 way house for messed up kids as he had been. Way too many life lessons taught to list here.2
