    @ZizzyBumble - I’m so sorry about your mom. She was lucky to have you taking care of her. 💕

    MONDAY:
    - Log everything / stay green🔴

    Rain, rain, rain! We hadn’t had any rain for weeks and now we’re stuck under a cloud for the next few days. My kids are normally outside all day, so this is a challenge. I think I’m driving up to the beach this afternoon just to park and have a picnic in the car. Anything to break up the day.

    JFT TUESDAY:
    - Log everything / stay green
    - Exercise (weights)
    - Laundry / housework
    - E softball practice...might get cancelled
    - Continue clearing gmail

    For today, Monday 6/29 (yesterday)
    1. Run errands from last week. Get car inspected and reregistered. ✅
    2. Record everything on MFP and stay in the green.👎 I went slightly over.
    3. Write in my journal.✅
    4. Be kind to myself and others. ✅
    5. Clean off kitchen table and counters. Too many papers stacked up! ✅

    I just have not been feeling well and it is frustrating and that has bled into not sleeping well. Is it the medicine I’m taking? Allergies? The food I’m eating?

    For today, Tuesday 6/30 . Take care of myself!!
    1. Eat familiar foods in smaller amounts more frequently and see if that helps.
    2. Exercise - walk for a minimum of 30 min.
    3. Take a nap this afternoon if I am tired.
    4. Write in my journal.

    JFT - Tuesday June 30
    1L of Water
    Log all Food
    Gratitude Journal

    I didn't post goals yesterday, it was a terrible day work wise that started even before the clock struck 8. I am hoping that today is better. I came to work instead of using a sick day so that's something.

    There was a lot I wanted to comment on, but didn't make notes thinking I would remember. I got distracted and now don't remember.

    My cousin that was told she had skin cancer at the end of April had some good news yesterday, they got all of the cancer. They were concerned that it had gotten into the soft tissues in her throat but it was clear! She has one more reconstruction surgery on July 13 and then should be able to start the healing process.

    I hope everyone has a great day.

    - Bed by 11:30 :(

    Have an awesome day y'all!

    Tuesday is club ride day, and I really want to go, but I'm tanked. I've hit it fairly hard recently and my legs are just heavy and slow. Not a great combo for riding. I've also been a little queasy the last few days so calories have been low. Also NOT good for riding. I'll try to work on healthy calories today and hope I perk up by evening.

    Tomorrow we leave for our camping/white water trip in PA, so there will be some laundry and packing this evening. I like when my Tuesday is like a Friday!

    JFT Tuesday

    - Work on calculations for new test
    - Call photographer to set up Sierra's senior pictures
    - Get in at least 800 calories before ride - damn, forgot my lunch.
    - Log everything
    - Stay green
    - No alcohol
    - No candy/cookies
    - Club ride, just a few hills, but they are sizable. Anytime the road has the word Ridge in it's name it's a clue.
    - Dinner with the club post ride
    - Load vehicles for trip
    - Bed by 12:00

    Have a great day y'all!

    Goals today will be simple again,
    1. log all food
    2. concentrate on water
    3. go for a walk. Its raining now, but hoping tonite to get out.

    @azulvioleta6 I know what you mean. Because of my age and compromised lungs, I've been in isolation since early March. My state opened up very minimally mid-June, so I have gone out for a meal or two. Maybe check out YouTube videos for exercise ... they have just about everything you can think of.
    @Snowflake1968 that's great news about your cousin. Hope you had a better day today.
    @pridesabtch your PA trip sounds like fun. Enjoy!!
    @mytime6630 Hugs Back!!

    @annettehangartner You're right! To quote someone in here (foggy memory) -- we're all in the same storms, just in different types of boats. Congrats on the cake and the ceremony; sounds like you did a fabulous job!!
    @cschmitz110515 I decided I was so far behind I'd never catch up ... so just started from yesterday.
    @Bex953172 good to have you back!!

    @cesse47 - I wish I could say I did, but that would be a lie. At least tomorrow is Canada Day so I don’t have to work.

    @Bex953172 - it’s so nice to see you back! How are the littles? How was homeschooling? I hope you are doing well.

    Good day today. My first meeting wasn’t until 9:30! (Luxury!) Didn’t feel like I was fighting illness, just allergies. Another mini mid-day binge, but only 100 calories over. Need to figure out what that’s all about.

    For June I focused on intentional eating and strength training. For July I’m going to focus even more on the intentional eating, and set a goal to get to at least 10 pushups in a row (in my late teens I could drop and do 50...I’ll settle for 10 to start, now!).

    So many people having tough times right now, I'm really sorry for what you're all going through and hope there's some light ahead soon. I like @mytime6630 's point that we can still (mostly) control our health, so I'm going to keep trying not to let 2020 derail me.

    I've managed to log everything (and stay within calories) for nearly a month! But I realised yesterday how much poor sleep impacts on my eating, so I'm going to add in a new daily goal.

    JFT (Wednesday): log everything, stay in the green, get to bed by 10.15.

    Bike ride went well, I didn't walk any hills. Pace still isn't what I'd like, but I will get there. I get a little stronger every week. Yea me!

    Also my weight is down today which is nice. I guess the monthly bloat has gone away. Nice to see the scale move in the right direction.

    JFT Wednesday

    -Up early for a walk :smiley:
    - Load cars
    - Straighten house
    - Shower
    - Head to the camp site, 2.5 hour drive
    - Set up camp
    - check out the surroundings
    - Hot dogs for dinner & roasted marshmallows for dessert.
    - Hang around the camp fire.

    Can't wait to get away! Happy Wednesday y'all!
