Hello @pupowl !
I love a good puzzle too! Only upside of the pandemic!
There is a place in Boulder, Colorado, where my daughter lives, that makes these beautiful wooden puzzles with unique shaped pieces, like animals or other images in the puzzle design. I love them.
I am still recovering from Covid. It’s been 17 days since I first had symptoms. No fever for 12 days and a negative test so I was able to drive to Houston for my husband’s hip surgery tomorrow, but the traveling wiped me out. Today was the first day I’ve been able to exercise in a while.
On a good note- my golden retriever, who was having surgery when I got sick, had is stitches out today and is doing well. His tumor is cancerous but he is otherwise quite healthy so a good candidate for chemotherapy.
I still plan on my regular weigh in Friday but it might be ugly from comfort eating, wine and so little activity. But next week is a new week.
Hello to everyone else as well! Planning on sticking around and getting to know everyone better over the next few months. And maybe lose some weight too!4 -

@PatriceFitnessPal thank you!! Yes, one of my favorite things to do on my birthday with my family is do a mini-hike. Usually it's too hot down here this time of year for us to do a full hike, so we did a short hike yesterday!
Step Goal: 8,000/day
6/27: 5,447
6/28: 7,530
I was SO CLOSE yesterday! So I am promising myself to get to 8K today!!
Go ahead and send me your steps from Jun 26th...that's the day our monthly stats started for July. Thanks!

WELCOME to the team @StacyAru and glad you found us! I'm Jessica, your Captain. On behalf of the whole team and our two motivators @angmarie28 and @PatriceFitnessPal we hope you find our team to be an extra dose of support!
Do me a couple of favors...first go back and read our first page of postings and you'll find our FAQ which will answer a lot of your basic questions about how things work. If anything you'd like to know is NOT covered, just post and one of us will work on getting some answers for you. Secondly, take a minute and introduce yourself and tell us a little about what goals you have for July and beyond. It will help us get to know you and give us an idea of how we might be more supportive.
I hope you find this group to be as helpful as I have during my time here. We do have a great group of people!
Good luck in July!
Jessica

@SavageMrsMoose I would love to know the name of the place in Boulder with the wooden puzzles. Would make a great gift for my cousin who ADORES puzzles. Do they have a website? Please let me know and thanks!

Feeling so much better after my bike today that I signed up for an 8 week running challenge starting July 4th. It’s to improve my pace. Could I join the step challenge? My start to the month is pretty rough cause Covid but hopefully it will improve. Or I can wait until next month- that’s okay too.

Steps 29 June: 12.402
Good morning Shape Shifters. Another busy cleaning day with vacuuming, mopping, cleaning the bathroom, toilet, stairs. It was also a hot day and I didn't feel like worrying about my steps so I didn't make my goal for a change. Went to bed very early because my body was so done.
Happy Thursday everyone
@SavageMrsMoose
The pandamic sure helped with making jigsaw puzzles more popular! I looked at the website for the wooden puzzles and they are gorgeous. Good thing I don't live in the US; saves me a lot of money.
Sorry to hear you are still dealing with covid. Hopefully you will be back to your old self soon. Good luck with the treatment for your dog, that sounds terrible to go through! It is always so hard when our pets are ill.2 -
@jessicakrall8 ahh sorry about not having June 26th on there! Here it is!
Step Goal: 8,000/day
6/26: 5,234
6/27: 5,447
6/28: 7,530
6/29: 8,655 (FINALLY!!!!)
Last day of June, and we are all going to rock it!!
We are done moving finally!!! Now comes the fun part of being able to unpack and organize our new home, which I have been incredibly excited to focus on this whole time. We did some unpacking, but most of our focus was finishing the actual moving. Today's focus after work is getting the playroom in shape and getting up some curtains. We have my mother-in-love coming into town later this evening, and we want to make sure the playroom is in good shape, so she can rest and re-cooperate from her travels without a bunch of cardboard boxes and clutter around her. I'm making it a point to get those 8K again today too!
I hope everyone has a fabulous Thursday!

Hi all,
I'm Stacy. I live in Colorado, USA. I'm 52, married, and have two daughters, age 14 and 17. I work in IT and work from home full time. I have a dog named Moose, who is a 17 pound Pitbull/Chihuahua mix and a ball of mischief, and a cat named Flower(he's a boy). I enjoy reading, hiking, and golfing.
I'm happy to be joining you, it seems like a great group. Lots of serendipities, so I must be in the right place! I have the dog named Moose (MrsMoose), I went to school in Boulder, CO, and I'm currently working on a project at work, an ERP system going live on July 1 in Netherlands. Oh, and I'm headed to San Francisco in a couple of weeks... will add Presidio to the list of possible places to visit!
I have always been athletic and active, but age is catching up with me. About 12 years ago I had to stop playing volleyball due to knee issues. I was still doing triathlons, but had to stop running two years after that. I can’t play tennis due to elbow issues. But, I can still hike and golf! And swim and bike, and do lots of things. Working from home and menopause are proving to be additional obstacles to overcome, I think. My weight has continually crept up over the last decade.
I joined this group for accountability, awareness, mindfulness, connection, ideas. It’s easy to go mindlessly through the day, and not take responsibility for all the choices I make. I know that I need to plan, need to make lists, etc. If I don’t have a plan, I don’t stick to a plan, lol.
Looking forward to getting healthier with you all.
