Up early to walk the dogs and be back early enough to accompany Jake to colonoscopy appointment. I didn't expect to sleep much so when I didn't sleep much, I wasn't surprised. It's snowing this morning and the dogs and I had a blast walking before breakfast.

Had to take my bike into the shop, not shifting right. Having to ride my summer bike. Came out of the gym and someone took my pouch from my bike that had my rear light. Great8

It snowed through our entire after breakfast walk, Sasha was covered with snow when we got home.

NYKAREN I remember you've had success with challenges by reframing. Will that work? Sending much energy.

This morning I am wearing my Learning Coach hat. We are getting ready for 8th grade Writing SOLs in March.
First we did a Health Quiz. The answer choices had my grandson giggling. Apparently someone with a sense of humor designs the Health Quizzes. He says that is now his favorite class.

Barbie I wish I could come to your line dance class too! Your class and you are like this thread, safe, warm, compassionate and fun.
Friends who drop friends for no apparent reason:I may resemble this remark. Had a friend I thought was a good (though difficult) friend, good enough that I imposed myself and my dogs on her for nearly a week when I left my husband. Stuck with her for years, despite other friends cautioning me that she was not as good a friend as I thought, that she said and did unfriendly things behind my back. Though I continued to support her “parties” she stopped coming to my house for any reason. When we moved away and I repeatedly invited her to come visit us on the coast (I know she loves and misses the ocean) she finally begged off that it was unlikely she’d ever travel that far. OK a sort of sigh of relief release that friendship back into the universe. Recently received a gift magazine subscription from her (we haven’t exchanged gifts in years). After some struggle and thought, will shop for a Thank You card, but keep the tone light, not ask any questions, not provide any news, just be as emotionally distant as I feel. So while not for no reason, nor do I want to invest the emotional energy in explaining. So be it.
A very happy birthday to you Kylia! Hope this year brings lots of joy.

Lanette “Is it my imagination or do spouses seem to want to chat during times like this when they can go for days without really wanting attention otherwise?” Exactly! If it weren’t for TurboTax’s tax history and easy transfer of information from year to year, I’d take our paperwork to the AARP volunteers. For a small donation to the Activity Center, they’ll prepare and file for you.
Cathy great to see you back and Hubba Hubba. Hooray for line dancing and Zumba gold.
Machka SMH at your department’s last minute “scheduling.” Can not fathom not knowing instructors, days and times of classes before signing up for those classes, much less not until a day or two before. :noway: Not even knowing in which courses their students are enrolled? How do they get away with it?

Any way your gym could provide a secure room for bikes, or bike lockers?

i've thought about it. i'm gonna ask. the other gyms let me put them inside. we'll c. i'm glad i had another light to use as a rear blinking light and i still have my vest that blinks, AND it was raining and snowing too6 -
Wandered up to the doctor to put in my repeat prescription request. It's only at the end of the road.
Then, after lunch I toddled round the corner to the hairdresser. I changed from the owner to a senior stylist (cheaper) and she was much better at cutting and nicer. Very pleased. It's just a trim and a rough dry so I don't pay for styling. It's not worth a blow dry with all the exercise I do.
Sitting in the chair, under the salon lights, I could see my roots were really showing, so I caught the bus down to the mega supermarket and bought hair colour. On offer! I only do my roots and it takes 25 mins every couple of months. I will have a go on Wednesday afternoon. I also bought a few supplies we can't get locally.
Tonight we are having a repeat performance of the cabbage I made yesterday. I have half a cabbage left and half an onion. Sea bass. Potatoes for DH.
We are still talking about what to do for DH's 75th birthday in October. A new brochure for Saga dropped through the letter box this morning. We are tempted by a cruise to Greece. I keep telling him it's his birthday, his choice, but he doesn't really get it.
He has been to Greece many times, but I have never been. But it's not my birthday. 
It's quite expensive, even for the cheapest cabin, as it's a long trip. But I'm not going to think about that. :noway: One slight problem is that it will be a new ship which we don't know. This would be its fourth voyage.
Discussion , decision.
The alternative is a flight to France for several days or a week. Or anything he wants, but he doesn't know what he wants. :sad:

Hello ladies!
Just a quick drive by to check in - busy day at work today (I took Friday off so am playing catch-up today). I'm behind in reading so I'll try to catch up with that later today. Had a relatively good weekend. BIL is out of the hospital and in a cardiac rehab center. It's slow going, but at least he's making progress.
And my DD got a full-time job offer. She had been working 30-32 hrs a week at her current job, at the new one she'll get a full 40 hours with benefits plus a higher pay rate. Should make it a lot easier for her to afford the car she just bought (and the insurance on it). Also hoping this will help with moving her towards adulthood and being more self-sufficient.
As for me - the 1# that I lost the previous week found it's way back
. Not really surprised, though - I've been skipping some workouts and not paying as much attention to my eating as I should. Back at it today!

Decided on vegan spaghetti 🍝 (no cheese or meat) with garlic butter squash y onion 🧅fried in water y pan cooking spray .
Spaghetti has tomatoes 🍅,squash 2 types, corn 🌽, onion, Prego garlic 🧄 y onion sauce,olive oil,spinach leaves,pepper,garlic powder,squash flavored noodles 200cal Barilla GMO free. Yummy 😋 JRs fav. Can add cheese if I feel like it for dinner on our plates.
Crystal light peach tea to drink 5cal I drink 2 glasses sometimes.

Made it in bulk so can grab it or peanut butter pancakes 🥞 for JR per meal or a slice of pizza for him.

Kelly, yes I seem to get heartburn if I eat too much sugar. I can have some but have to be careful what it's in too.
Lisa, I am also impressed with the fellow who sought you out in the store, good karma will get him!
Evelyn, trying to get caught up again on sunny (!) Vancouver Island3 -
Pip, a pox on the such that go around stealing other folks stuff! Well, karma will get them too and it won't be the good karma that Lisa's guy will get! Glad you had other ways of lighting yourself up.
And now I'm off to the gym!
Evelyn, who is all caught up! (didn't take as long as I thought it would)4
