Do not disappoint myself, be conscious of my choices.
My perm went well yesterday, I actually don't think I'll wash it out today like I did last time. I was my daughter's first human model last summer and her final one yesterday for school. She still has the provincial's to write though.
I have a phone interview at 1015 today for a job that I do not want. I applied because I really want a job and if it's offered I feel I'll have to take it. I will worry about it when and if I'm offered a position.

I never really got back on yesterday to comment on people's posts. It was a busy day and I took the evening to really just watch tv last night.
Faebert – I agree with you about some days weight loss and health just being another responsibility and burden. You have worked so hard and done so well, it must get tiring being in maintenance. I think I understand the frustration. I agree if you are tired, you can't keep it up. Aiming for 6 hours is a great goal, I don't know how you survive without sleep! For something that the body needs naturally to function it sure wreaks havoc in a lot of people's lives. I know so many people with sleep issues.
I'm so sorry that you have had to make the decision you have to make, but if it lessens your risk and allows you a longer life I'm sure it's the best decision. It must be a terrible decision to make though.
Mytime6630 -It's so nice to see you posting again! I missed you.
Clicketykeys – Oh leftovers! I throw so much food out because we never seem to eat the leftovers. There are some things I just won't eat as a leftover and hubby never thinks of eating them. I have been trying to put some things in the freezer though and making them in serving sizes.
Nlmackey98 – I understand the mentality about not eating enough and eating too much. This is my third time losing the same weight. The first two times I restricted myself too much and feel that that is why it wasn't sustainable. This time around, I am trying to take it slower and make it so that it is sustainable for the long haul. I eat meals that I would eat when I'm not trying to lose weight, but smaller portions and not as often. I try to move more but am not doing heavy, heavy exercise. I am losing much slower than previously and find it frustrating at times because I know I can do it faster, but I keep telling myself this is sustainable for the long haul. I eat back most of my calories, when I'm exercising though.
PackerfaninGB – I'm so happy to read you had a great vacation. Sorry the weather was so cool.
Maryrobinson40 – Hugs, it is so hard dealing with sick children and feeling helpless.
I'm out of time again. I'll have to try to catch up later. I want to clean at some point today and see what I can find to apply for.
Have a great day.2 -

January 2019: 186.0
Today: 189.6
Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut1. Purchases: Go to Mac store and see if they can retrieve the files off the iMac. Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for Design for How People Learn (Julie Dirksen), On Writing (Stephen King), Dying for a Paycheck (Robin Hardman), The Prince (tr. Tim Parks, Russell Price, or Robert Adams).
2. E2: What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options. Create vocabulary lists for each unit that come from the texts used: Animal Farm, Julius Caesar, Wes Moore, I Am Malala. Find a way to incorporate changing words from one part of speech to another. Students need to know how to review multiple sources and synthesize information in order to draw a conclusion. Need practice with the difference between transitions and overlapping (at end of paragraph - "another issue is Y" vs "there are other issues besides X"). Quit using "in conclusion" and "I believe" and other writing-about-my-writing phrases. Confusion between direct/indirect objects and prepositional phrases. Use the UDHR and the Declaration of Independence to study paraphrasing; use that to front-load Machiavelli and how to deal with challenging texts. Confusion between everyday / every day and similar constructions.
3. E1: Need practice with quoting & paraphrasing sources, identifying claims that would need support, use of last names for reference, and capitalization practice (common/proper nouns, titles). Difficulty using possessive nouns in their own writing. Honors: practice subject/object pronouns (my friend and I / my friend and me).
4. Curriculum Development: Writing mini-unit. Review scholarly research on 5PE. (I think I can have this as an intro to the research unit so that they also get exposure to how quotes are integrated and cited.) Parallel structure; use of emotional language, specific detail. Use "Write About a Pebble" lesson from Atwell. How long should each unit take? Do research on characteristics: curiosity, persistence, resilience, creativity, responsibility, optimism, courage, integrity, authenticity, leadership, self-awareness, humility, compassion - others? Include grammarly check on essays!

Big thank you to you guys! I came home frim work early because I was bored and exhausted. Which meant there was enough light to do my hike. I gotta tell you, if I hadn’t listed the hike as a goal today my rear would have been on the couch, probably napping, and in for the night. It was a tad slower than normal, but it’s still 3.5 miles of hills.4

Is this a "Oh NO!!"""",,, or "happy for you"??? It sounds like you were unhappy with where you were working? I hope the right job comes for you that you love. Sometimes, things can be blessings in disguise.1 -

I saw myself be mom, minister, counselor, nurse, teacher ( KUDOS TO THE TEACHERS AS WELL)

my husband has a separate life from us. I believe my children deserve a quality life. Somewhere in
the midst of the family split, miscarriages, physical issues, my daughter lost her way. I'm
believing that she along with proper medical help will be delivered and healed.
This journey is important to me for many reasons, but the main one is I WANT TO LIVE! FULFILL
MY CALLING IN THIS LIFE! AND PLEASE GOD.
I'm walking, driving, and doing what I can to reach my goal.
I'm so proud of each of you for keeping your heads up, and for every effort

Hugs to you .... you are doing great with reaching your goals! I hope your daughter is doing bettter!
Sister... I'm keeping the flame of hope burning for my daughter. It hurts to see them so burdened and
having moments where they shut down... I commend you on being a terrific mother. I applaud you for
your successes too. I'm proud of you and I love you.🌹👏💝💝💝💝💝💝💝2 -

Goodnight all4 -

Morning all! It’s my big girl’s 10th today - cannot believe I’ve been a mum for a decade. Feeling a bit emotional. So proud of her. Yesterday was completely crazy. The plan was to go for a run or workout, then drive over to my parents to pick the girls up, drop the oldest at her friend for a play date, then do shopping, a late lunch with the little one and some colleagues, then cook and bake for today. So already quite busy.
I went for a run (smashed my longest distance, fastest mile and fastest 5k - yay!) then came home and realised that it’s been a while since my car has been serviced. Then remembered I had it taxed but did I do the MOT? Then checked and realised it wasn’t done and therefore not legal to drive - oops! Still sweating and panting from the run I made a couple of calls and managed to get it booked in but needed to be at the garage within the hour. Then had to get two trains to my parents place in a rush. Then got a taxi to the play date and on to the shops with the little one. Then struggling home with a gazillion bags! Then the cavalry arrived in the form of a mate I haven’t seen for a while and he gave us a lift home but said his kids missed mine and could we get them together that evening. I said yes, not really thinking about how much I had to do. Then had to rush on foot with the little one to pick up the car then go and meet the colleagues for late lunch. Then come home and frantically try and bake the cake and make lasagne before picking up my other daughter and then going round to the friend’s house for a movie. Got it all done, kids not in bed until gone 10 - absolutely shattered!
If you made it through that essay congratulations! Suffice it to say that I am a bit tired today but very relieved I got it all done and happy that my birthday girl is so happy. On to the goals...

Happy Saturday!
So that gym membership I kept putting off cancelling.. It was so fast and easy, I don't know why it took me so long 🙄
I weighed myself for the first time in a month and a half, I am down 2 lbs so that is nice. I am already a healthy weight, my goals are just vanity weight and improving fitness and body composition, I feel that my body fat is too high for what my weight is.
We want to start trying for a baby soon, and I guess this sounds silly since I'll be gaining weight anyway during pregnancy, but I really want to get closer to my goals and be in better shape before getting pregnant. I would like to continue working out to the level that I can and be fit throughout the pregnancy and keep the weight gain within the normal range. I've never been pregnant before so I guess you could say it gives me a little bit of anxiety because I don't really know what to expect or how my body will respond.
Anyways, enough of my rambling, here is yesterday 2/22:
1. Stay within calorie goal 😁
2. Go for a walk at lunch😁
3. Leave work by 5:15😁
4. Cancel gym membership that I don't need (been putting this off for months 🙄)😁
JFT 2/23:
1. Stay within calorie goal
2. Get a minimum of 4,000 steps
3. Do workout
4. Make a budget
5. Cook dinner4 -
Thanks for the messages yesterday all. For those that are newer, the background is that my mum has had breast cancer twice, and in August last year my older sister was diagnosed and had surgery in September. My younger sister has had preventative surgery following some scares and that is now the plan for me. So yesterday’s appointment was a mammogram and more tests, which together will pin down my exact risk. But I was told I’m already well over the threshold for risk reducing surgery so I’ve decided to go ahead and the next step will be pre-surgery counselling. I’m still quite scared, but the stats are pretty stark. There are long waits for all of these appointments so I am going to try not to dwell on it for now.
Busy day today and weekend coming up. My big girl turns 10 on Saturday! Can’t believe it - where does the time go?!
Thursday goals recap:
- morning workout ✅
- Water ✅
- Leave by 10am ✅
- Buy book and healthy lunch at the station ✅
- Online grocery shopping on train journey ❎ couldn’t get a delivery slot to suit
- chase P birthday party potential venues ❎ couldn’t do this on the train and got home too late to call anywhere
- Evening plans unclear - my kids are staying at my parents so I could go and see bf (it’s been over a month) but it will depend where my head is at after the appointment 😕 he had to take a trip away at the last minute, but it meant that I could have my early night ⬇️
- Early night ✅
Friday goals:
- morning workout/run

- Take P to play date
- Grocery and card shopping with L
- Meet colleagues for coffee with L

Love and hugs Sister. We are here with you and walking this out with you. The love and support runs
deep. You're doing great!.👏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😇1
