    did zumba and then wanted to hit my 15,000 steps so had my son walk around the block with me for that last 2000.
    My Fitbit app says I am at 15,147 steps, 12 floors(flights of steps I think), 6.81 miles and burned 2,127 calories.
    MFP says I have eaten 767 calories.
    I will eat something but nothing huge- it is almost 9pm so don't want to over eat. Just ate a small amount before class(if I eat too much I get heart burn during class)

    going to make graham crackers with peanutbutter and a little Nutella- puts me at 1012calories for the day with 920 remaining(NOT eating that)

    Hope to get to sleep before 1AM tonight- walking MIL's dog in the morning then picking up meds for her

    edit- did a little more- now over 16,000 steps. Enough for today.

    Happy almost Tuesday everyone. I am successfully logging and bought a food scale to replace one that’s gone missing since the last time I was faithfully keeping track. I don’t weigh everything but I find it helps for some things, especially as I retrain myself to gauge portions better. Also walking a lot.Things are headed in the right direction at least.

    Grandmallie - glad you made the decision about your bed - hope you get your money back without having to fight them.

    Barbie - <3 Thinking if you and your Sasha

    All - stay cool and healthy.

    Thank you all for the anniversary wishes. Rodger and I were able to spend about 3 minutes together this morning. I have stayed up past my bedtime to see Rodger for a few minutes this evening. I guess this is a true example of marriage, it’s not all romance and candlelight. 😂 We do hope to get some time away this summer at some point and Rodger just asked me out for supper Thursday night.
    There were a lot of people that didn’t think Rodger and I were making a good decision when we married. His Mother was sure we were though and I’ll always love her for that.

    Machka - I can’t imagine being married and then not being together right away. My Grandparents were separated their first 4 years of marriage due to WWII.
    I need to post that stairway reminder somewhere I’ll see it regularly.
    I tend to worry and fret when I know that it all works out when you just take it a step at a time.


    Those little succulent cupcakes are cute.

    Lanette - I always thought it would be neat to sit on a jury too, I know myself better now though and if it wasn’t a 100% for sure “they did it” scenario I would doubt myself the rest of my life wondering if I made the right decision.

    We use regular coffee in the Keurig. We bought the reusable pods for this. It has saved us a lot of money. Rodger drinks coffee more than I do so this works because he spaces his out over a few hours.

    Kylia - I am finding it very hard to find a mechanic I can trust. That is what I went to my cousin’s the other day. He looked at it so the mechanic wouldn’t try to sell me something I didn’t need. However, he is going to fix it for me so I don’t have to take it to a mechanic at all. He is a mechanic, he’s just retired.

    Rebecca - we are having a drizzly cold week here. It is supposed to rain until next Wednesday. 😳

    Allie - I have a coworker that has a dog that is keeping her up throughout the night and early morning. These comments always confirms for me that I don’t want a pet even though I would love the company.
    Did they not warn you of supply issues at the time. We are being told to expect 6-8 months on most big purchases.

    Lisa - I didn’t know what bingo wings were and went to look it up. I hadn’t heard that term before.

    Sue - that is fortunate that your daughter stayed home. Junuary is an apt word for this month.

    Meg - Welcome back.

    Off to bed, I should sleep well listening to the rain.

    Went to doc today for UTI, different NP than my usual so she reviewed my chart then ordered an EKG and another that tests for blood flow and stress. Well EKG was good but stress one was bad. My physical stress levels are ok, but mental and emotional not good. I was referred to a doc that tests for current medication effectiveness and therapeutic massage. I then get home hand find I have 2 calls, one to schedule my sinus surgery and the other from the state tax office. 🙄🙄 and they wonder why my stress levels are so high!

    Sorry that you're under such stress.

    Is your sinus surgery similar to a surgery to repair a deviated septum? I did that 2 years ago. It was an experience!!


    What was the stress test? A multiple choice type of thing?

    That was what we said to each other ... when the war was on, people married and then went off to war. If they could spend time apart, so could we.

    I needed to finish my degree. I did try to move my degree to Australia, and was accepted at the university here, but I would have to finish it as an international student which is a lot more expensive than being a domestic student. We decided to save ourselves a pile of money by being apart 9 months.




    Bingo wings -- I know them as bat wings.

    Coffee -- here in Australia we drink instant coffee at home and at work, and strong Italian coffee when we go to a cafe. Some people (including us) have a French Press ... but ours rarely comes out.

    Uninvited guests -- if they're dropping in to say "hi" briefly, that's not too bad. If anyone were hoping to stay overnight, that would be a problem. We don't have room.

    But since we don't have a dryer (most in Australia don't) and we dry our things on a drying rack in the lounge room in front of the heat pump (like many Australians in winter), it could be a bit embarrassing having people in.

    Whomever posted the very cute succulent cupcakes...- Those are adorable and I am stealing that idea. I think I will make mini brownie bites and decorate them like mini succulents. So adorable!

    Love and hugs to all who need them! I have been reading but my brain is still tired and foggy. Know that you are all, always in my thoughts. ttfn xoxoxo KJ (Kelly)

    That was me. :) I thought they were very cute!

    I thought of you when I saw them ... thought it might be something you could do with the kids or for the kids. :)

    I follow a page on Facebook called Ideas & Fun and I like a lot of their ideas. :)

    Katla- you know the Great Blue is my favorite also,the hummers and Cardinals too..
    My mom read me the Thorton Burgess books to me when i was young and I will read them to Miles.
    I am just waiting on a call back from a bedding store that Tom and I have used and never had a problem with and thats probably where i should have gone in the first place.Once i get a call back that they have what i want in stock i will be canceling my other order..
    And they better not give me any flack.

    We’re having a quiet day at home watching birds and the river. Water is deep and several trees on the island across from us seem to be sitting in several feet of river water.
