    If you don't normally read the Blog posts on MFP, you're really missing out. They give great tips, ideas, challenges, suggestions, recipes and information. Here's a great article that goes right along with some of our comments this week about all the hot/muggy weather. Here's the link:

    This came just in time for me to procrastinate cleaning my house for a few more minutes 😏.
    I was finishing my coffee and trying to get motivated to get up and start doing some housework. Then I decided to browse and find a new podcast to listen to while cleaning. I find that listening to a good podcast makes the time go by easier when I’m doing something mundane. I enjoy True Crime podcasts, and anything with a good storyline. But today will be trying out “Smartless” for something different.

    It's been way too hot for me today. Temperature in Durham (UK) was 32'C (about 90F), my sister lives in San Diego & says it was cooler there!.
    I have spent the last 3 hours in my study/craft room with my Happy Planners. I'm almost thro a year of a fitness mini so I gathered up all the unused pages & got more months out of - thank goodness for frixion pens- I managed to rub out some & get it set up until the end of the year!!
    Now I need to commit to every day!!

    This was an easy one for me. Seafood and I just don’t get along, if I skate I fall and cookies are my nemesis.

    @drearn15 I never received a request to include you for July, so you're not listed on the chart. Hope you're ok...tough week...I get that! Hang in there...dust off and get back on it...you know the drill! HUGS!!

    Hooray - finally hit my step goal! It’s the wildfire smoke that’s really getting me. My asthma has flared up - finding it difficult to go outside at all

    @jessicakrall8
    Hey, I’m heading out camping next week. Leave on Sunday morning. My weigh-in day is Monday. Can I submit my weekly weight on Sunday morning (one day early)? Thinking I will be out of wifi range until the following weekend.

    @Waifer003 Yes, you can post to the chat thread or send me a PM, whichever you prefer. Have a wonderful trip! I hope you're doing the camper, RV or cabin deal and not a tent...it's just so hot lately...

    Perfect! We’re going to be in a cabin this time. So relieved not to be in our tent trailer like our last camping trip lol. Usually I love our tent trailer, but the heat plus the smoke is making it seem not quite as appealing as usual 😂
