    Today I am going to take my walk early and try to figure out what I am going to wear to my interview tomorrow. I have had dreams twice this weekend where I was told I didn't get the job. I hope that those dreams don't come true. I really want to get back to work, on the other hand being off for the next 6 weeks leading up to the wedding would be nice too. It will play out the way it's supposed to, worrying about it only makes it worse.

    I am off to do some crafting for the wedding.

    Have a great day,
    Tracey in Edmonton

    All the very best for that interview!! :heart:

    Made it home late Saturday after a week in Mexico. Lots of work with my daughters 3 little ones. Some from up North came with us. It was his gift to me. So fun to have him around for a week.
    Absolutely exhausted from lots of walking and not sleeping well. Spent most of Sunday in bed then Mother’s Day dinner at daughters.
    Back at work with the usual crazy busyness today. Thankfully don’t have to get up early tomorrow as I am on nights. Walked so much I lost 3 pounds. Now to figure out how to add more activity to my day on a regular basis
    So many posts to catch up on!!

    Had a busy week which has made it harder to log my food and check in with you, but I'm back on the bandwaggon, but so much to do and don't have time to catch up with all your news, I will try and catch up, but I need to cut the grass whilst it is dry, it's like a jungle out there so I have to strike whilst the iron is hot - so to speak :D

    Wishing everyone good health and happiness and hugs to those in need. I'm a bit worried about my dad, he seems to be going downhill. To be honest I think he has had enough, but he's hanging on in there.

    Love to all <3

    Hi all, we are going on a guided walk this afternoon, as part of the festival. It's about smugglers, anarchists etc. :laugh:

    This evening it's Swing dancing, so we will be pretty well knackered. >:)

    DH didn't sleep at all last night and disappeared into the next room to read all night. I didn't realise he had gone, so took myself upstairs when I had a wakeful period in the night. I read for about 45 mins and then drifted off. DH heard me go upstairs and went back to our bed. He was having an anxiety attack, IBS, etc. :( It is most likely because his younger daughter is still suffering from the painful residue of a bowel operation and is upset about not being able to sell her apartment. There are noise and nuisance issues from upstairs, which is not what she needs right now. Poor DH always gets upset when she is having a bad time. His anxiety appears to be free floating, but there is always a trigger.
    Eventually everything settles down and he is ok again.

    A woman came along yesterday and asked us to sign a paper for a street party at the end of June. They have to have a road closure up our end, though the actual party is further up, so we won't have to move our car. 11 a m - 11 p m. Not my idea of a great time, but it's a way to meet the neighbours, I guess. ;) Apparently they have it every year. I can rustle up something to eat, I expect. It's the music I find irritating.

    Lovely weather again for the walk.

    Lisa - You sound like me last week. It seemed to be one thing after another! Grrrrrrrrrr! We just want to feel well, or even ok. We know it's not life threatening, but it drags you down.

    Lots of love, Heather UK xxxxxxx

    last classes today and tomorrow. may not get much else done, spent 5 hours correcting papers and taking notes or noting for feedback...I'm tired now. glad I made it to the gym for 15 min at elliptical (+ walk there and back) I think I only produced 14 page yesterday not 20 and that there was a bug making extra big margins...
    still way behind-only at 38 pages and not 100 as I'd hoped to be.
