I do like family trees, my nana has lots and lots of documents for ours but when she passed away I'm not sure who they went to, it will be one of aunties and uncles I reckon. But I don't feel like asking them to look because my nana found most of it out! So she knows all the little stories about the people she's found.josephinebowman wrote: »Tuesday!

Any of you like family trees?
Although now you've mentioned it I may just go look anyway

Good morning JFT Peeps!!! Well, since I know I only did about 50% of my list yesterday, I'm going to write a new one today and not even update yesterday's. I get discouraged by the number of frowns I have to add.
Today I see the surgeon for preop appointment and will find out what exactly I'm having done next week. I am happy to be getting my hip fixed, but I'm bummed out also because I know how sedentary I will be and feel like it is the end of my summer.
But you need an ending to get a new beginning, right? One chapter ends, another begins. I can't wait to be able to walk without limping and being in pain! I'm hoping I don't have to miss Art Street though. I look forward to it every single year. Not sure when it's being held, so I will have to look it up.
Hope you are all having a great day! I wasn't able to get caught up last night. I was exhausted. I really need a day off to just rest when coming home from a trip.
Just for Wednesday, 8/15- Journal every single bite.

@AJB1014 congrats on your new home! I hope you will be very happy there.
Hugs to those that had a bust yesterday - me too!
@snowflake1968 I am actually now a little underweight. I’ve been pushing so hard in maintenance to keep things going because it’s like I don’t actually believe I can do it! But the stats on regain for people who lose a lot of weight are not encouraging so I guess it’s right to be vigilant?? Losing weight is hard, but achieving balance in maintenance sometimes feels even harder. I wish I could relax a little more sometimes. X
It's such a balancing act this body of ours. I wish you luck. I personally feel that I will need to track, log and weigh forever to keep myself in check. I'll see when I get there I guess, I am taking this loss much slower than my previous two in the hopes that helps make some more permanent changes in my habits.1 -

Work has been pretty slow today. Only a handful of customers and not that much paperwork for me to do. I got my 90 day review…about 90 days late! Lol. It wasn’t terrible. I was just below average. But with everything that I went through dealing with LK it’s not really surprising that my work wasn’t as good as it should have been. LM said that she already noticed a marked improvement in my work and attitude since LK left. There were some definite areas of improvement but there are also some things that I do really well. So I’m pretty sure that my job isn’t in jeopardy. Lol!
The last few days my stomach hasn’t been doing all that well and I’ve been sleeping a lot which is either the precursor to my time of the month or something much more exciting. I’m not going to hold my breath though. This has happened several times before and has come to nothing. So I guess we’ll see in a few days.
This made me laugh, my last job had very strict policies on reviews and employee satisfaction. It apparently went to the employees in the field only because I was a manager that wasn't given 2 reviews in 7 years. The first one at the 3 year mark after I begged for it! I think reviews are important so an employee knows how they are doing, where they need to improve and should give them an opportunity to speak to a manager about how they feel within the organization.
Also and more importantly - I'll pray it's something more exciting for you!!!!1 -
😐 Just tried to feed Casey porridge and she screamed the house down! Never had a baby reject food before. I'm wondering if she was already too hungry. I'll try again later with that!
Still tired! Feel like I'm in a forever state of tiredness lol!

I wrote a family history book with my cousin on my Dad's side. I am hoping to start working on a genealogy scrapbook for my daughters with 4 branches of their trees. I have all information for my side of the family all sides, need to start working on their Father's. I find it fascinating!1 -

I love family trees! What do you do at the Center? I find ancestry so interesting!
I used familysearch.com (its a free resource!) to do my family tree last year for a family reunion. I got back to about 1800 but Ireland records seem to be kept my the churches so not as well digitally documented as some other places. My DH ancestry goes back to Newfoundland and I was able to get to about 1700 for him. Very cool stuff that I hope to carry on!2 -

Hopefully you still get to the Art Street, surgeries are scary and recovery usually sucks, but you feel so much better in the long run! I agree with needing another day off from a trip. When I travel to NB I always make sure I have a couple days at home to get rested before going back to work, the time difference alone makes me exhausted. Good luck today!1 -

Yesterday was just a day of No's - We had three contracts cancel yesterday, two of them were only temporary so not a surprise but the third one was completely out of the blue. This leaves us with one 40 hour contract. So the branch now has 208 hours worth of Supervision/Management and only 40 hours of someone to supervise.
I called the VP who I report to directly to ask him what he wants me to do about staffing if I need to lay people off or not and he snapped at me "I want you to sell". I have been trying and then he has been making me give high quotes, so I really feel this is a no win situation. He told me that if I don't get business they will be closing the branch. I am not so concerned about myself, I will have EI and I already have something else in the works, but I feel awful knowing that I am responsible for 32 others livelihood. I told the VP in our first conversation when they contacted me about this position that I was not the person to help them build a branch and I was promised that I would have to manage and they would sell. I was told he would be here once a week to build relationships and get clients, he has not been here since the day he hired me in January. They hired the Business Development guy in early June and I was told he would be here weekly until we got business up and going. He has been here twice. It's an awful feeling being set up to fail and that is how I feel. I spoke to the Bus. Development guy on the way home yesterday and he told me to just sell or he figures there is only another 2-3 months they will keep the branch going. I'm not even sure what to do at this point except keep doing what I'm doing.
A friend came last night to look at my stacking washer/dryer I bought used that wasn't working. It can't be fixed. So I spent $50.00 for nothing on that! I'll try to post it for free and hope that someone wants it for parts or something.
I ate like crap yesterday, I'm sure some of it was emotional eating. I very rarely do that so I'm not beating myself up over it. Today is a new day and I'll be on the right track again. I did have a couple of positives yesterday, for the first time in at least 6 years I have two bills 100% up to date! It was such a nice feeling opening the gas bill and paying it immediately! Only about 3 more to get caught up! Hopefully I don't just get them caught up and end up right behind again because I'm out of work.
Today is going to be great, I get to see the Grands for the first time in 2 Weeks! I have a little gift for each of them, I can't wait to see them.
Sorry for the gloomy post

MARY!!! You're post is speaking to me this morning! I LOVE my comfort foods. And my love language tends to be FOOD. I also have a hard time saying NO. You got this! I got this! WE GOT THIS!!! Have a great day 2 -
@Snowflake1968 That is a really crappy position your VP put you in! It's very deceptive! I would have a very difficult time with the situation too. But just remember it isn't your fault. You are doing what you were hired to do, plus some! When do you plan to make your switch to the new company your friend is starting up?1

Thanks, I had a bad vibe about this position when I accepted it. I took it because I had been out of work for going on 4 months and I needed money. I won't regret it and I'm grateful to have had it, but I would gladly give my notice today if I could. I feel that physical security guards (which is this business) are all being replaced with cameras and technology. Unless there is a huge loss it is just cheaper for businesses. I really should have ran the other direction when the thing the owner and VP were most worried about when I started was that I didn't kill a cactus here in the office. LOL
She is hoping to have the funding in place to hire me on as a salary position no later than October 1st. She was hoping for September 1st, but it doesn't look like that will be a go. I have signed the Shareholder agreement though already! She has received her incorporation, and has been doing some networking and meeting with banks. I have a lot more faith in her and this brand new business than I do in what I'm doing now.2 -

@cschmitz110515 I totally forgot about the power muffins! Isn't that a mix someone had posted on here a while back? Can you remind me how to make those or what mix to get? I can't believe all the walking you do in this hot humid weather! You go girl!1

Thanks, but I am getting sick of getting up early even on weekends to beat the heat & humidity! From @MLHC1 Kodiak Cakes Power Cakes Flapjack & Waffle Mix ~ hubby and I love the Dark Chocolate. Recipe for power muffins is on the box, and so easy to make. I have purchased mix at Target and Woodman's, not sure about other stores.1 -

I'm trying to post in the mornings so I can accurately record my august challenge.... but morning are harder for me to find the time. So I may still post my goals in the evenings, and just update the challenge in the mornings. But wow .... I had to go back 5 pages just to find my post!!

It's funny how you can't do the same with each child isn't it? Just shows their have their own little personalities, likes and dislikes at a very young age!0 -

Haha I know, I've been extremely blessed that I get them to sleep through the night at an early age! And so far not-so-fussy eaters. I just hope I can win Casey round lol!2 -
What a great thread folks! Your idea of accountability and support is really motivating. I am familiar with the JFT/ODAAT sayings from a different group and I had thought about applying some of these principles here too. I’ll be back tomorrow to get started properly!
I am just at the beginning of my weight loss journey. (Presently I am 11st and aiming for 8 1/2 st. I am 33 years old and 5’3”). See you tomorrow 😊3 -

I am just at the beginning of my weight loss journey. (Presently I am 11st and aiming for 8 1/2 st. I am 33 years old and 5’3”). See you tomorrow 😊
Hey and welcome!
Look forward to seeing you tomorrow!
Where do you live?
Glasgow. Presently it is damp and dreary and grey although all the trees and flowers are very grateful.
Ahhh so the UK then! I'm in Cheshire, England. I thought you might be from the UK when you used Stone for your weight lol!5 -
