    @acrylicfox @teigansdad I find it helpful to not focus on a goal or date, but making this my lifestyle one day at a time. The rest will follow.

    Some good advice!
    Thanks :heart:

    Wednesday
    No beer❌😐
    No M&Ms❌😐
    Zwift workout✅
    12 pull-ups✅
    25 push-ups❌
    At least I was still in green 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Thursday goals
    It’s already been fairly productive... the schools opened back up again. My wife works as an SLP and now has to be there early to help check kids Temps.
    -I wish she would look for a different job. She had been in the school system for probably 15 years. I think she’s gotten a raise MAYBE 4 times. Never even keeping up with cost of living. Plus with pandemic and some remote school she’s easily working 12-14 hr days.. if you March it out she’d probably do better as a manager at Burger King. How’s that for messed up?! The only academic priority NC politicians and I guess majority of tax payers is sports.


    Sorry for the rant

    Thursday goals
    Stay green
    No beer
    No M&Ms
    25 push-ups
    12 more pull ups (already did 12 this am)
    2 hr trainer ride on Zwift

      So I think the interview went really well on Wednesday. Thank God I tried on my interview clothes earlier in the morning because they didn't fit! So I had to run to the store to buy more. $85 later. *sigh* And then stupid me didn't realize that I still had tags on the suit jacket until I got home from the interview! I really hope the manager didn't see them. Lol. But he seemed really excited throughout my interview with my work history and how open my availability is and things. He said that I should hear back today so keep those fingers crossed and those prayers coming!

      I want to go to school on Monday and tell them that I'm not coming back after Thanksgiving. Which isn't making me feel as guilty as I was yesterday because a bunch of the faculty thinks that the district will be going back to full virtual starting the week of Thanksgiving and going until the end of January, so they have more than enough time to find a replacement for me. Yay!

      Um...I started on a new story last night. I have no idea where the ideas came from, but they randomly popped into my head. It's a fantasy about a powerless witch whose parents force her to go to a magic college and all the mayhem that ensues. Lol. I'm really excited about it! I have to do some research today into mythological creatures for it, though.

      Okay, onto some goals!

      11/13/2020

      - Up at 7:15 :smiley:
      - Post goals :smiley:
