Really warm here today. Put the horses out in the back pasture since there is more shade back there. Goats have a nice shady spot already. Doctor reduced the H2 blocker that I take for reflux by 75% and I am having really nasty rebound reflux. I feel sick if I eat and if I don't eat and my throat is really sore. I think I will message her and see if we can do this in a more gradual way because this is not fun.
Allie - Your cape trip sounds like fun.
Glad some of you are getting rain.
Rye - Love the picture.
Everyone take care, Sue in WA3 -
Barbie: I love the baby hats. What a wonderful service project.
Rita: Love the photos! :flowerforyou:
Lanette: Today was lovely here. Warm enough but not uncomfortably warm. I hope we get more days like this.
Sue: I’ll be sending good thoughts for your doctor’s visit and improved vision.
This morning I went out to the stable and spent about a half an hour with Arrow. He was pleased to see me, and we just walked around in the pasture a bit, then I came home. DH & I brought the RV home and put water in the tank. Tomorrow we head east to DSIL’s place after a stop for fuel on our way. We haven't seen her in person in many months, and we're both looking forward to it.
Prayers for all in need.

How'd I Do?
August:
✖️1. Lose weight.
➡️ Nope. Gained.
✔2. Monitor blood glucose
➡️ Yes. Daily.
✖️3. Exercise - avg 30 minutes/day.
➡️ Nope. My head just wasn't in the game.
✔4. Track daily in MFP.
➡️ Yes. I tracked most days.
✖️5. Declutter. 30 Bags in 30 Days.
➡️ Nope. Just not feeling like doing much.
I'm not sure what's wrong with me. Likely some depression. As I've shared before... It's been a rough year and doesn't seem to be letting up. I'm trying hard to focus on the blessings. And, I need to get out of this house. I spend far too much time here.
September Goals
1. Lose weight.
2. Track blood glucose.
3. Walk daily. Minimum 15-30 minutes.
4. Track daily MFP.
5. Weekly outtings.

THANK YOU!!! Yes, I shouted that! I am thankful for all the suggestions. Lack of water and more alcohol probably are the most likely causes. I have had lots of water today. I had a banana with breakfast (I forgot about that and need to log it) Done, still under calories, so all is good. As for sodium level, I do tend to eat less sodium, but being on vacation means eating out lots, I have actually been over. Not ruling that out though. Milk-YUCK- Not sure how anyone can drink it...my favorite is frozen-hehe! Even that is occasionally as my belly doesn't like it. I will keep in mind though.
Walked 5.5 miles with 161 active minutes! Yay! have a couple of tender spots on feet, but wore sandals to dinner. Different tennis shoes tomorrow as heading into Gatlinburg with friends. Had a nasty storm come through this evening. The wind and thunder were starting as we headed down the mountain. My truck got hit with a few nuts falling from trees. Made it to dinner before it started raining. Was done raining about the time we finished dinner. Lots of tree debris on road heading back up mountain. Apparently it was bad up here. Found that the power had gone out while we were gone. Found the door mat about 20 feet from the door. Everything calm and cool now.
Lots of prayers for healing! Sending them!
Husband whining that I am on computer. Guess I will call it a night!
Oh, Ginger.....try a gratitude journal...several ladies have them....somedays it may be that you are just grateful that you didn't kill someone other days it will be the sun rising. We are all here for you!

Kayla wearing good shoes with support also makes a difference too for your legs. See if that makes a difference too. I too forgot bananas are helpful. I eat mine at breakfast too. They are also helpful if you eat before bed.1

Lol my Grandmother hated milk. So do I. I eat mine frozen too. She sucked it up when her legs hurt though and drank it.2 -
Thank Kylia. I actually had “journal blessings” as a Sep goal - then decided to not make it a goal - just work on doing it as part of my nightly routine. Keeping it short.

Valuer coming between 8 and 8.30, so, unusually, we have our clothes on. I usually do my exercises in the vest and knickers that I wear in bed. He should be quick as it's just for a mortgage, not a buildings survey.
Grrrrrrrrrr! Still had to get up early and make sure things are ship shape. Yesterday we spruced up the yard and outside paintwork, patio etc.

Thought the dog lovers among you might like this. My elder son posted it on Facebook. The brown and white one and one of the black ones are his, sisters from a rescue organisation. The other black one is his girlfriend's.

Morning ladies
I'm awake and sitting in bed with Alfie watching the morning news..then will do the usual walk the dogs and feed my FIL.then meeting my DB at Dad's with a real estate agent and get it on the market..and have her be aggressive to get it sold...6 -
Still hanging in there... one more busy day today, culminating with a 5 pm to 6:30 pm teleconference, and then three days off to get a few more things done in the house. Flying out next Monday to El Paso, back home Friday, then flying out two days later, on Sunday the 16th, to Midland, doing a bunch of driving and meetings, and back home on Thursday night. Then one whole week at home before I'm back to Midland at end of month. Definitely my busy season... but four plane trips later (got one left to go in mid-October) and I'm hopefully done traveling for the year. We'll see.
The whole "trying to stay in the present moment" thing, yeah, that's not happening.
Been keeping up with y'all, but not saying much--by the time I capture one thought, the rest have all flown the coop.
Best of luck, Pip!
Love y'all,
Lisa in AR6 -
Feeling blech today. Not sure if I've got the flu or if it that time of the month which decided to make a reappearance.
Did get a brisk 6.1 km walk in to the Botanical Gardens and back.
Did not eat lunch. I wanted to buy lunch today, and walked into my favourite place ... stood there a couple minutes ... and walked out again. My stomach said, "Nope!"4 -
Good morning all! Happy Thursday!
Allie- I can not tell you how happy it makes me to see your posts of plans you have with friends and photos of you and your friends out doing things! With all of the issues you are currently having with your dad's place, it is wonderful to see you have this time to be happy and enjoy yourself! You do see this complete turn around from last fall, yes?!
Pip- Woo-hoo! Almost race time! Good luck! Have Fun! I know you and Kirby will be amazing! You do us all proud!
Ginger- Don't be too frustrated with yourself and your goals made or not made. Like you said, you have had a rough year so far. Been there. You know, when you go into that auto-pilot mode, when things get hard; sometimes you just have to hang on and ride it out for a while because adding anything else to your load feels like it will break you! Hang in there. Ride the wave. Keep paddling. Soon you will be on top and ready to stand back up and get s**t done. We are in your corner and have ears/shoulders ready for you!
Kylia- I am a pickle juice girl! I drink a lot of water, though (80-100 oz/day). When I was running every day, I would drink about two or three ounces of pickle juice every day. Not hard for me, as I have done this since I was a child. Love the stuff! I never drank milk when I was a child. I hated it and my mother wouldn't buy chocolate to mix with it, so...no milk for me. THEN, I got pregnant with my daughter in my early twenties and craved milk! I began drinking about 20-30 ounces of skim milk a day throughout that pregnancy. I don't drink much of it now, though. Maybe an eight ounce glass a week.
BArbie- Love the hats! You are so talented and I think it is wonderful that you can put that talent and compassionate heart to use doing/making things for others!
Rita- Roswell looks to be in the middle of Nowhere! No wonder aliens landed there! I am so excited for you and this part of your RV journey! I am following you closely on this adventure!
Mary- So glad your daughter's surgery went well and will keep your daughter in law in my thoughts and prayers as she continues to fight this infection! Is this the same one that she had a few months ago?!
Suebdew- Thinking of you and your beautiful eyes! Hope you have a successful trip to the doc and they can figure things out and get you back to seeing the world a little better! Sending lots of prayers and hugs your way!
It has been a busy week so far (glad it is a short one)! Tuesday work all day then my provider meeting in the evening, Wednesday work all day until 8pm, today work all day then get Tim, Colin and myself to the next town over for fingerprinting (state mandated), tomorrow I work all day but I plan to do absolutely nothing in the evening because I will have Trentin early Saturday and Sunday morning until mid afternoon each day. On the upside, Trentin's mom has asked if I can take him an extra evening during the week and possibly every weekend beginning in a month or two. That works for me!
Ah well, the day marches on! The sun is finally coming up and I better get things ready for the kiddos! Love and hugs to all who need them ttfn xoxoxo KJ (Kelly)

Thank you again for all your suggestions. Really pushed the water yesterday, downside, up twice to go pee, but no leg cramps, so right back to sleep!!!! I know that my body adjusts to the water in a couple of days. Will try to drink more in the morning today. Enjoying God's sunrise this morning! Birds singing. It is a gorgeous day!
Have a blessed day!
