Morning Airport Friends, back later to read and do personals.

Happy Saturday! Excited for the new challenge to start and fire a fresh start! My goal this challenge is to be on top of things with posting my numbers, chatting, and finally achieving my 5%! For awhile now, I haven't been chatting much since I just haven't had the energy for it. I still don't, but I need to force myself to push through the fatigue. I need the support and the focus, and supporting others in turn helps me to. Otherwise I'm not even really "connected" to my journey or accountable. So my goal is to be present!

Anyone remember Bill Thompson from Sparkpeople? I know he commented on a lot of people's blogs. He should know I think of him often. He WAS a diabetic. I remember a blog where he said his insurance and Dr no longer considered him a diabetic. I wrote down in my notebook many things from his blogs. I'm essence, I'm emulating what he has done to reverse his diabetes to reverse mine. Trying anyways. I'm so deconditioned and with fatigue is a struggle. I'm doing stuff for my fatigue. Being post menopauseal hasn't helped. I know I'll start to feel better, I just gotta push through this initial wall.

@Tabatha,. So sorry to hear that you're having a bad run of things lately, and I pray this morning is the last of it. I know that feeling for sure! Hugs to you!

@Kurtize,. I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend. Hugs to you!

Have a great weekend!

Good afternoon all. It is a very nice day today. Sunny and 77. @ Catwmncat sending hugs and to al you also @Tabatha_Cain. Hope things are a little better.

Have a great rest of the day and weekend. Looking forward to the challenge, really hoping to do much better this round.

@DID_60LBS_BY60: I can only echo what Diane expressed. Holding you close in prayer. You do have a bit of solace knowing that he was ready and received the last rights. You are not alone and am holding you in prayer.

@Tabatha_Cain: Sorry that you are hitting a rough patch. During those times I remind myself that there is a beginning, a middle and an end. Maybe that might help when you think that circumstances are not turning around.

My project today was staining some doors. I took a photo but it doesn't do the job justice. The area looks so much warmer.



Tomorrow's word is UNDERSTANDING.

Ginnaboots: Good morning.

Good Afternoon Airport Friends:

Yes I am checking in at a different time today. We had so much on our plates today we just did not have time to do our morning check ins. Joe was having some pain and we were not sure if it is from his kidney stone or something else so we just kinda lazed about at his parents and really did not do much but watch movies. We did watch church online though. We never miss a week.

@ForeverFitNHealthy - Thank you. Things seem to be a bit better today. I am tired and worn out for the day and have barely done anything.
@ginnaboots - Thank you. It does seem to be a bunch of little things that are bothering me.
@DID_60LBS_BY60 - Oh My. I am so sorry for your loss. My little problems are nothing compared to what you are going through. We are I am sure all walking with you in spirit and praying for you. I am sure there is some comfort in knowing your son had his last rites. I will pray for your peace.
@NovemberGail - Those doors look great. Thank you for the advice. I am working through the rough patches. At least I am trying to anyways.

Well it is almost time to go grocery shopping. I hope you all have a great evening.

Tabatha

Dear @DID_60LBS_BY60 - I am so sorry, my prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. I can't imagine what you all are going through. Hugs.

I walked over four miles today without really even realizing it. The weather was beautiful after the heavy rains. Just a wee bit muddy in the yard and trails.

Tomorrow's word is BALANCE. (Isn't life a juggling act sometimes??



Bluets and one of my favorite small flowers. Some folks call the nun eyes.

It seems like most of my orchids decided to bloom at the same time. Here are a few of them.

Good Morning Airport Friends:

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is going to be a good day. It is my last week at my current job and then I will have 2 days next week. I am nervous on what the day is going to look like when I get to work. Am I going to be training others to do my job. I do a lot and I don't think they are going to be able to keep up. I just don't think they are going to. I am sorry for dropping them like I am but I just really feel that this is what is best for me. They were unwilling to adjust my pay based off what I do so I feel it is only fair that I look for a job that does just what I want and I make the money I want.

@CSEGUIN2 - That is great that you exchanged phone numbers. Also nice that you were able to go for your walk
@NovemberGail - That is great that you got that walk in. I am so ready to get out and get some exercise out side in.
@LindieMaeP - Nice that everyone got together and had some fun. Love the photos.

Well it is time to get some breakfast. I hope you all have a great day.

Tabatha

@DID_60LBS_BY60 -That is so heartbreaking! I am so deeply sorry for your loss. Lots of hugs.

@NovemberGail -The doors look great! Way to go on the 4 mile walk.

Diane-I sure do hope you start feeling better! Hope the doctors get it figured out.

Lindie-I hope you like the vibration plate. Take it slow because it doesn't feel like it's gonna do anything, but trust me it does. Drink lots of water because it drains your lymphatic system getting all those toxins out. So drinking water helps you pee them out. lol. I did it for 28 minutes on high one day and I felt it big time the next day. I would start out at like 5 minutes a day for a week or so. Enjoy! Love all of the beautiful pictures.

@lavalily -Beautiful orchids. Love the deep purple one. Mine is on its fourth bloom. That is really good for me because I do not have a green thumb at all. My grandson was into plants so I bought him some to keep here and all we have left is the orchid.

Tabatha-I feel for you on training the new ones. Hopefully if you end up doing it, all goes well. That is the one part of my job I do not like. I have to exercise a lot of patience and that is not one of my
virtues....hahahaha!


Happy Monday everyone!

Good morning!
Anyone use a Fitbit? Since the challenges are now over, I joined the Stridekick app to join in on challenges. So far a really like the app! I just need more friends, so I'd thought I'd share. Come join me on Stridekick! Here's an April challenge:

Good morning everyone, I hope your Monday has shaped up to be a good one, the sun is shining here and I might get out in it this afternoon, maybe a walk to Safeway as I need yogurt! And I have some $$ left frombowling so I can use that lol
@Tabatha_Cain I sure hope Joe is ok and that you have a good last week, I know what you mean about not being appreciated by others especially the boss, now they will see when they have to hire 2 or 3 to do what you did and it would have been cheaper just to give you a raise.
@ginnaboots thanks for the informaiton, I have passed it on to Gene so he drinks water too and not coffee all day! I did 15 minutes today sitting but will try what you said about the 5 minutes - Gene is like a monkey on the platform and hopefully that passes too LOL How is your day going ?
@ForeverFitNHealthy for me the challenges are not over, I am still invovled in the In between challenge and Saturday starts the practise week for the spring challenge that starts in April, so we actually go from one to another without missing a beat. Enjoy your challenge on fitbit - I am with Apple's Iwatch. Let us know how you are doing!!
@lavalily if only I could be there to experience those lovely orchids and to take in the fragrence !! Beautiful !!
Well I gotta get a move on, and I hope your day is just "ducky" lololol

Happy Monday
