JUST FOR TODAY -- One Day at a Time .... Daily commitment thread for 2019

@snowflake1968 the job opportunity sounds interesting. Think you’re right to find out more rather than reject it out of hand. If it’s right then hopefully the transport situation can be sorted. Good luck with working the polling day- I imagine it will be exhausting! Well done for planning food ahead of time. X[/quote]

I second Faebert's message about checking out the job possibility. Hopefully, transportation can be worked out. I've done the polling day, bringing in food for the day. It was a long day, but fun--in slow times, we got a chance to talk with the other workers and it was nice to see neighbors that I don't see on a regular basis. Being with other residents of my community, I learned a lot about what was going on in our township. And, I commend you for responding to our group's posts--it does mean a lot, to learn that others are reading and responding to our daily challenges.

Yes, they figured it out and we got to come home. Thank you for asking! Yes I’ve been keeping up with the challenge but this one is a little different. Every day you have to add another set. I try to complete them first thing in the morning. That way I know I will get them done. I do a set when brushing my teeth and continue while I’m doing my morning face routine etc. lol I know it sounds silly but it really helps.

Thankful everyone is home and doing well.
I am the same...I don't do squats while brushing teeth, although I did think about it last night. But I do them while I wait for my water to boil, or toast to brown, etc! I just have to get a hundred in each day...not sure I could do more than that!!! Keep it up...you are going to have some strong legs!!!

Oh my God. I am SO stupid!!
Ive downloaded these apps in the past and thought i had to do 100 IN ONE GO!
I always deleted the app because i thought sod that!!! As if i could do that!!!

😂😂😂😂

Last week I was in the green by an average of 287 which beat my goal of 250. Yay! This come out to about a 1/2 pound loss which is good but oh soooo slow. Oh well onto:

JFT 4/16/19
Pre log my day
Spend the morning with my mother helping her to organize her kitchen (purge)
Try and make the 1:00 class at the gym
Chose smaller calorie snacks, drink water first (am I thirsty and not hungry)
No wine or snacks after dinner

Just for today I will eat my evening meal then stop. I will not be tempted by a little bit of cheese, or even one teeny weeny sugar free sweet. My goal is to be at target on 1st June. I can do it if I have determination, persistence and patience, and I will just do it. 🌞

I received this friendly reminder yesterday...thought I'd pass it on to you!

what's the squat challenge?

@aubyshortcake, I can imagine the worry about your babies. I've gone through that, and it is so scary to think they are out there somewhere. Just know that if they can, they will find their way back to you. You keep your chin up as well, it will be okay. I really do hope you find those babies because that would be so awful to lose them. Is Rukia one of your dogs? I assume that is true. I have to give one of mine pills every morning and night also--the tan dog in the pic I shared, she has epilepsy. Best to you!!

Hi Everyone... I hope it's okay for me to share some pictures with you. I have a lot of nieces/nephews, and
Great nieces and nephews, and great great nieces and nephews. 😁

My brother's son and his cousins

So, the first picture is of my last living brother, me, my oldest living sister Madeline, and my 6 year older
sister Wanda. Brother's name is John Henry.

The girl in the polka dot dress is my oldest daughter who almost died... God is awesome to raise her
up from that chronic asthma attack, ICU life supported state, to that smile...

Well, I think that some folks use an app?? But I am just doing a challenge with a few other friends (not on here), to do 100 squats a day...not all at once time but just a total of 100 squats.

Honestly, when I saw the "girl in the polka dot dress" my first thought was, "She is so pretty! And has joy on her face!" Thank you for sharing, Mary. You have a fine looking family!

Peace and joy!

Agreed. Your daughter is beautiful @maryrobinson40 x

I was really sick last week and over the weekend. Went back to work yesterday, but decided to take things easy. Time to get back in the swing of things today!

Tuesday:
1. weigh in
2. 10,000 steps
3. walk on at least one work break
4. go to gym--cardio/weight workout
5. no social eating at work
6. register for tango glass
7. get swim pass after work
8. drink 8+ C liquids
9. try to get to sleep early

So I'm over at D's house tonight hanging out/watching over her son Al who has Downs Syndrome. He really is a great guy. He's 22 already! I've known him since he was 5. It's amazing how fast time goes by. He was my dinner date. We went to Roy Rogers and got food and he spent the first hour I was here telling me all about the movie Chucky. It was hysterical. But God does it feel good to be out of the house and in a social situation. I'm taking him over to Boy Scouts tonight also. My Dad is the Scout Master so I'll probably hang out for a while. I'm also bringing Al home after the meeting but his parents or brother should be home by then.

I got a call back from the Doctor and it was actually the Doctor himself that called. He said that there wasn't really anything he could do to stop the food from coming out the south end until they know what exactly is causing it but he did prescribe something that should help with nausea. So we'll see what happens with that. I am waiting for the text that it's filled and then I'll go pick it up. If it's before Scouts I'll drop Al off and go while he's there.

Matt made it to the store and back for food. I haven't been cooking dinner or anything so the only way we've been getting food is from the store down the street. I have to go food shopping when we get money on Friday. I'm not sure how Matt's feeling now. I'm probably going to call him in a few minutes. I guess I really needed to get out of the house though. I actually feel a lot better. I also spent some time praying while I was waiting for Al to get dropped off from his program and I think that also really helped. I am feeling much more upbeat. It's still hard but I guess I have a brighter outlook on it? I don't know. Lol
