    Missed you @Saragirl and @slittlemeister!

    @OConnell5483 - the job sounds great! It was all meant to be!


    I like the idea of the gallon jug. I have the hardest time getting my water in also - might have to do this myself!

    Good luck on the cookies swap - this time of year is when I get in the most trouble also! Going to babysit my grandsons from saturday-thursday. Since they will be in school, I am going to do my xmas baking there --- that way the boys can decorate the xmas cookies, and I can leave the cookies there!

    As for low fat evening snacks, I am going to keep sugar-free jello here at home. But I would love to hear of ideas you have. Evenings are my worse time for snacks - and I always seem to want cold stuff (like ice cream!).

    Friday 12/1 JFT:

    ✔Woke up late so the kids are having school lunches :disappointed:
    ✔Breakfast w/ hubby
    ✔House Manager Office Work, lol
    ✔Lunch
    ❌Walk Dog ~ 15 min.
    ❌Sm. Grocery Trip
    ❌Regular afternoon routine for kids
    ❌Elliptical
    ❌Dinner by 7pm ➡️8 pm
    ✔Family Movie Night :smiley:
    ✔Bedtime after movie

    Well today has turned out to be more eventful than I had ever wished for. I was sooo excited that the day was going productive and lunch was very pleasant. Then as I prepared to get on my elliptical (no joke) I received word that there was a suspect with a gun at my son's High School :cold_sweat: So I immediately loaded up my dog and rushed down to the high school. Swat didn't clear the school until a little past 4 pm!! Needless to say, my afternoon plans were all cancelled!! Thankfully our police controlled the situation, response time was 5 min and they apprehended all suspects. Luckily it is Friday, which gives everyone some time to take this all in. We'll see what develops from this. Sorry to ramble on about this drama, but it drastically affected my goals for the day :D

    The most I'll acknowledge the silly, nonrelavent drama here on JFT, is to say.....I do not give attention to "cry babies" throwing tantrums. Therefore I will just continue with my regular JFT. I hope everyone is doing well and can overcome any negativity that is surrounding them. Be blessed and have a good evening / day :blush:

    Happy Friday!

    I am SO happy for you --- I can tell by your posts that you are in a much better place, and you sound so much happier!! This is the life you were meant to live!! And wow --- to have a gym membership!!!! Congrats to you for taking that leap of faith in this new job -- and in a new you!!!!

    Thank you Joan! I really believe this was meant to be! Very happy.

    Enjoy your time with your grandsons. It isn't supposed to be terribly cold in WI, so I'm thinking Michigan should be pretty close to the same weather. Have a wonderful trip! We'll be here when you get back! :blush: xoxo

    Wow - that is scarry! We had a similar lockdown at one of the high schools near us yesterday- they spotted someone carrying a gun not too far from the school! It is so sad that little kids have to worry about things like this.
    I am glad that everyone is OK! That would derail any exercise time for me also! But glad everyone is OK!

    Thank you for understanding. It is sad that kids have to deal with these events but I believe every generation has their struggles. Luckily my son is very educated about evil existing in our world and he was not traumatized by the situation. However there were some who seemed traumatized. We do live in a Christian community so I believe the churches and schools will come together for all the kiddos.

    @joan6630 I hope you enjoy your trip! Have fun, laugh, and don't stress over any silliness :blush: We all care about each other here and I know I'll keep on keeping on :wink: Be blessed young lady :wink:
