    Scale goals
    End of 2017: 174.6
    End of 2018: 189.2
    January 2019: 186.0
    February 2019: 187.0
    Today: 192.0

    Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut
    1. Purchases: Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for On Writing (Stephen King), Dying for a Paycheck (Robin Hardman), The Prince (tr. Tim Parks, Russell Price, or Robert Adams), The Secret Adversary (Christie).
    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). Poetry: Revise "Songs are Poetry" handouts.
    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! Review assessments. What is the purpose for each unit? What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options. Schedule assessments for Fall 2019; plan out return times. Write 1 reflection weekly; type one in Classroom by Weds. Copy-paste to PB for comments due Friday. PB usernames 6 digits, no 19 or 20s, no birthdates. Homework: Online journal Mon due Tue; Reflection Tue due Wed; C&P journal in class Wed; Comments Thu due Fri. Bonus if you are the first response; further bonus if you respond to comments on your post. Grammar practice Mon & Wed; quiz Fri.
    5. Professional Development: Write blog post weekly. Comment on 3 posts each week -Tu Th Sun? Check with PSC. Talk with Z about articles and/or conference proposals. NOTE: ATTENDED PRE FLEX DAY.
    6. Medical: Dentist Oct 29 8 AM. Onco Oct 22 9:30. PCP Schedule for July. ObG Oct 22 10:30. PCP - allergy shots?
    7. Theater: Mamma Mia. Next?
    8. House: Mineral oil on tile spots. Check with D about ceiling.
    9. Fun: Open beading on Thursdays. Coloring at library on Tuesday. Put jewelry away. Edney Hack Nights alt Weds. ASL? Spanish/Portuguese practice? Practice piano. ROL Secret Adversary. Buy new bikes and bike night for car.
    10. Volunteering ideas: Theater. Library. Animal shelter.

    (I saw 181.8 this morning before getting dressed, but I have only been recording my weight when fully dressed. I only have 7 more pounds, and I will be in the "normal" healthy range .. yes, the top of the range, but at least out of the overweight section! I am hoping to get there by thanksgiving, if not before, but I am a slow looser at this stage.

    I am slowly changing my habit of junk food in the evening ... when I do my stressful, emotional eating. Now, I keep a large bowl of fruit on the counter .. trying to grab that instead.


    Goals for today
    1. mindful eating
    2. drink 4 glasses of water before I drink a diet pepsi. 8+ water total
    3. eat only what I have planned for today.
    4. ONE planned snack after dinner

    @pridesabtch - of course I will have you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. I’m sure you are feeling really scared right now but it sounds like you and your daughter have an amazing relationship. She trusts you enough to confide in you and wants to get help, and you have responded calmly and with love.

    As parents one of the hardest things is knowing that we can’t protect our children from all pain. All we can do is build a strong enough relationship so that they can come to us and lean on us in troubled times. And hopefully that makes the pain easier. You are doing a wonderful job- stay strong.

    Big hugs x

    I absolutely agree! Many children do not confide in their parents so you are doing a great job at keeping the trust and communication door open. I am praying for you and your family!

    I'd like to ask for your prayers for something I can't tell my RWF. My daughter told me last night that the burns we occasionally see on her arms aren't from curling her hair, but intentional.

    I have a daughter will very similar mental illness.. except she was cutting herself. She hid it from us for many years .. telling it was from a razor, or that she fell, etc. She now confides in us, and is on the proper medication to help her.

    You should be very proud of your daughter that she confided in you .. and trusts you. She is asking for help, and she knows you will provide that help to her. Hugs to you ... I understand, and I will keep you in my prayers. I am here if you ever need to talk more. We have been dealing with this, plus many more issues with our daughter for 10+ years. (Our daughter has schizoaffective). It is hard to accept that they need help.. but there is help out there for her so she feels better. For years I blamed myself or my husband for the pain she was in. I realize this is something passed from genes, and no one causes it. It is just the hand that God gives us. Hugs to you also ...

    Scale goals
    End of 2017: 174.6
    End of 2018: 189.2
    January 2019: 186.0
    February 2019: 187.0
    Today: 192.0

    Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut
    1. Purchases: Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for On Writing (Stephen King), Dying for a Paycheck (Robin Hardman), The Prince (tr. Tim Parks, Russell Price, or Robert Adams), The Secret Adversary (Christie).
    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). Poetry: Revise "Songs are Poetry" handouts.
    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! Review assessments. What is the purpose for each unit? What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options. Schedule assessments for Fall 2019; plan out return times. Write 1 reflection weekly; type one in Classroom by Weds. Copy-paste to PB for comments due Friday. PB usernames 6 digits, no 19 or 20s, no birthdates. Homework: Online journal Mon due Tue; Reflection Tue due Wed; C&P journal in class Wed; Comments Thu due Fri. Bonus if you are the first response; further bonus if you respond to comments on your post. Grammar practice Mon & Wed; quiz Fri.
    5. Professional Development: Write blog post weekly. Comment on 3 posts each week -Tu Th Sun? Check with PSC. Talk with Z about articles and/or conference proposals. NOTE: ATTENDED PRE FLEX DAY.
    6. Medical: Dentist Oct 29 8 AM. Onco Oct 22 9:30. PCP Schedule for July. ObG Oct 22 10:30. PCP - allergy shots?
    7. Theater: Mamma Mia. Next?
    8. House: Mineral oil on tile spots. Check with D about ceiling.
    9. Fun: Open beading on Thursdays. Coloring at library on Tuesday. Put jewelry away. Edney Hack Nights alt Weds. ASL? Spanish/Portuguese practice? Practice piano. ROL Secret Adversary. Buy new bikes and bike night for car.
    10. Volunteering ideas: Theater. Library. Animal shelter.

    WFTY: Climbing. I'm REALLY tired. Had nightmares, including one in which I was executed by lethal injection. My mother was there, and I was really sad that we wouldn't be able to do things together any more. I was scared. The anesthetic in the IV was cold. And then it got dark - not in from the sides, like when you faint, but all at once - and I could feel my body relaxing and shutting down, like it was harder to breathe. And then I woke up.

    Yeah, that was fun. Not.

    And I left my headphones at school, and last night I forgot to take some of my makeup to the performance, and I just feel tired and frustrated and discombobulated. :(

    Happy Saturday! It's 12:30 already and I've not even showered yet. So, I could call myself lazy, but instead I will say that I slept in because I've been tired and needed it, and then our GD who moved out in June stopped over to do laundry and stayed for a visit and it was wonderful because I haven't seen her in a month or so and it was such a nice visit and lastly, after our GD left, I called my mom and wished her a Happy Birthday and we chatted for 45 minutes and had a nice talk. So, not lazy, just having quality time, right? :)

    I'm hopping in the shower and going to my other GD's high school football game to watch her play in the marching band at half-time. They will be in uniform this week for the first time, so that will be fun. Hoping it doesn't storm and cancel it. It's a big rivalry game, so it'll be fun to watch.

    J4T, Saturday:
    • Journal every bite
    • Drink water and track it
    • Go to WHS football game
    • Research how to use my Apple watch, because it is useless to me right now
    • Go to gym I joined this week - treadmill or circuit, tan and massage chair
    • Go through the package I got in mail and return what I don't want
    • work at how I want to arrange squares for my quilt top, so I can start sewing it together
    • "Me" time this evening: mani/pedi? meditate? walk?
    • Bedtime routine: Gratitude journal / Inspirational readings / daily dialog / read until I fall asleep

    WOTY 2019: TENACITY I will NOT quit. I will NOT fail.

    @pridesabtch - praying for your family and your daughter. You are so fortunate she talked to you, too many don’t.

    @clicketykeys - is cant imagine having a dream like that.

    @PackerFanInGB - not lazy just enjoying the important things in life.

    I have been sick all week with a cold and a toothache. I finally went to a doctor last night for an antibiotic to see if that will help the toothache until my benefits start and I can get to a dentist. I had my 3 months in at work yesterday and they are giving me a whole other function to do and I’m quite excited for it.

    I want to get back on track with my weight loss and I truthfully don’t have the energy for it right now. Maybe when all parts of my body stop hurting I can knuckle down and get at it. In the meantime I swear on Monday I am getting up and posting goals!
