I'm trying to get my dad in the habit of taking a daily walk, and he likes to take them at 8 o'clock at night. We've missed them 2x because other activities, so I'm going to walk in the morning to make sure I get mine in and then I'll walk in the evening again with him.
Exercise: Nope
Calories: Nope (I need to stop eating the chips/bread they serve at restaurants. It's really putting me over).

About today's topic @znaoiec it is so true. At some point in life I realized that it was always my own decision how I ultimately felt whenever I was unhappy due to X, discovering I ultimately control my attitude. I don't have to be happy about X, but that doesn't mean that I have to be unhappy. And having a better attitude always makes the effort seem a lot more doable.7

How is the first week into the month of July going? July is proving to be another very busy month. With our holiday vacation over the 4th, and kids/grandkids coming to visit for a week (coming in on the 9th), I doubt I'll be in the Winner's Circle this month - but that doesn't mean I'm not going to give it my best shot!
I'm just not going to stress out about it! I'll continue to remind myself that I'm very blessed and that being part of this terrific group makes me a CHAMPION! 5 -
@WhatMeRunning You're always SO consistent! Kudos! You inspire me!
I've also learned over my 40+ years as an adult that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. So I CHOOSE to be happy. I CHOOSE to not dwell on negative things, happenings, and people in my life. I CHOOSE not to hold on to bitterness or anger. 3 -
@mshawski Your post made me smile. I "hate" that sweaty feeling.... but lately I've had to remind myself that I complain when it's too cold in the winter and now when I'm too "hot" in the summer.... and that I need to stop complaining so much and go GET 'ER DONE!! 1

@SummerSkier I started back to working in the office this week as well - when we all began to WFH at the beginning of the pandemic, we had to empty our desks and take everything home. Even now, because of "cleaning" our desks every night, we are not allowed to have any personal items on our desks. This j-o-b is really messing with my morning routines (LOL), but I'm working on switching things around and trying to make it all work! I'm perpetually a "work in progress" !!

@GrandmaJackie James Clear's book is chocked full of insight regarding habits - how to make 'em and keep 'em, and how to break 'em!! I listened to it on the audible (Libby) app from my local library about a year ago and am going to reserve it again to listen to AGAIN! It's one of those books that I'm sure I'll learn new things EVERY TIME I read it! Thanks for the recommendation!1

LOL. I never complain about cold. I LOVE BEING COLD. You can always put more hoodies on, you can only take so much off before you're a Human Resources nightmare.5
