For those that don't see it... We are getting snow tonight.
I can't take a photo of it, but today it was 38 degrees centigrade (100 fahrenheit) where I live in Australia, this is spring, and the seedlings I planted out a week ago are all wilting from the heat stress
Things are worse for those living near bushfires - 500 schools across the country are closed today due to fire risk, state and national parks have closed to the public for safety, and we have a state-wide fire ban in NSW (probably in other states too). Doesn't help that our Prime Minister refuses to acknowledge that climate change, land clearing, and mismanagement of our water have created the worst possible conditions for fire (& it's very hard for our firefighters to put fires out when some of these towns have run out of water) - and he's more interested in trying to stop citizens (whistleblowers, journalists, scientists, activists, and any concerned person) from speaking up about these issues than in actually addressing the real problems. Sigh.
Luckily it is not this hot every day!5 -

Good morning guys!!!
Hope everyone is having a wonderful Wednesday! It was 17F when I left home this morning...no snow
Mother nature is playing a mean trick on the deep south today!
Today, I brought my crock pot to the office and I have chicken chili started for dinner tonight. I like to do this because I can give it an occasional stir and also like to torture my co-workers just a bit.
The office already smells delicious!
Anyone have something wonderful to share with the group? A struggle you would like to discuss? NSV you would like to share?5 -

Chicken chilli sounds delicious!
NSV - When I started truly focusing in May i could barely zip up my size 24 jeans. Over the weekend I was wearing a size 17. Also, I went to the doctor yesterday for the first time in a long time and my BP is back to a normal range and other than my multivitamins I am off all meds (at least until my MRI).8 -
NSV - I know I already mentioned it but I love it - Completed my first ever half marathon on Saturday in 2:17:47 whilst raising money for ex-service personnel and their families. This is 24 weeks from starting to lose weight and 19 weeks from starting C25K as I couldn't run for a bus! Anything is possible

Another gain, and while I'm not surprised, I'm just glad it isn't worse. I feel like 225 at least if that makes sense, and believe me I don't wanna go back where I was. This gain is a result of two weeks of overeating and then trying to get back on track. With December and the holidays approaching it will be even harder. Yikes!
@boehle what an awesome pic to have. Sorry about the place closing though, best wishes!
@TheMrWobbly congrats on your "new position"!
You guys always impress me! I really enjoy reading your posts. Thanks for being awesome and something to look forward to!

My NSV is I thought I could get away with my winter jacket from last year. It is way too big. The cold air blows in as it is so loose. I have to get out and get a new one.
@TheMrWobbly congrats!9
