@ThursLins A beautiful picture.

@Tabatha_Cain I hope the DJ shows up. Odd he won't reply. Hang in there!

mkksemail Your a good Mom. That is so sweet of you guys to bring pizza and cake. Happy Birthday to your baby. My baby is in her 30's as well. Time flies.

@Evamutt I'm glad you are getting back into the swing of things. Keep going, you're doing great!

@LindieMaeP ... What a cute shop. I would have stopped too!

Good morning Airport Friends:

I hope you are all having a great morning. Today is going to be a good day. I have my bachelorette party tonight. It is literally just my kids and I handing out because no one else wanted to do anything on Father's day. But it was the only day my daughter was available because she was in another wedding earlier this month. She is my Matron of Honor. So she has to be at my bachelorette party. We are going to go to dinner and have a few drinks. That is pretty much it. Nothing big or surprising. I am glad though that I get to spend this last bit of time with my kids right before the wedding.

@mkksemail - That is awesome that you took her some pizza. We love pizza here. We are definitely a pizza family.
@Evamutt - I am not sure what your current help situation is but if you are able to increase your walking. That is how I lost 80 of my pounds is I walked 90 minutes a day. It will also help with those cigarette cravings if you walk every time you want a cigarette. I quit smoking while losing weight too. So I know the struggle.
@jeanhickokhaley1 - He actually responded yesterday, He said he had been super busy and will have out time line this week sometime to approve. He is super pumped about our wedding. So I am glad. He had really good reviews so I was worried when he all of a sudden was not responding.
@LindieMaeP - That is awesome that someone would do a huge garden like that. I do not think that person would have minded if you had gotten out of the car and took some photos. I do have a back up plan. I have a spotify playlist we can set up with the church sound system. They just said in the reception area the sound system is not great. It will work in a pinch but they recommended a DJ for the reception. The sanctuary has a better sound system.

Well it is time to get something to eat. I hope you all have a great day.

@LindieMaeP What a beautiful garden & house! I love walking in my neighborhood, hardly any 2 houses are alike & so pretty.
I had 2 part time jobs that I loved, one was for an animal rescue I volunteered at for years & I worked 2 mornings a week(paid) & it was very physical. On March 24, 2020 is when I got a sudden excruciating pain in my right arm to where I couldn't move it 1 centimeter without very bad pain . I had to sleep on the couch sitting up, couldn't move it at all or the pain would get worse. I assume it was a pinched nerve because I talked to my friend who saw this in her 25 yrs of working in physical therapy at the hospital & I always loved to play badminton, tennis, racquetball, using my right arm.Had to quit my rescue job, it took couple months to be better & would hurt more when I used my arm more like for cleaning walls etc Covid just started so my Dr did a phone appointment with me & thought it was that too but I couldn't go see her. It's all gone now but my pt friend told me that where ever you get it, that part will always be weaker so I don't want it to come back. The pain was right below childbirth. I stopped plating racquetball, or using the rowing machine , weights etc but my legs I can use. Due to my bought with covid last November & fainting, hitting my head & getting a head bleed & just started not feeling too fatigued couple months ago & had retina surgery last Wednesday so a little unbalanced. In a nutshell.... I want to work to get back to more exercise but I don't think I can do as much as before but I'm ok with that. Started back at the gym last week & been going to the pool so far & a little on the treadmill, 10min at a time

@Tabatha_Cain ... I'm glad he finally called. Having dinner with your kids is wonderful. Sounds like everything is coming together.

Happy Monday afternoon. Quite warm, here 96 and feels like 108. I dislike Texas weather.

Not much new, we had a quiet father's day, kids called Don and granddaughter's sent messages.

Have a great rest of your day. Hugs and blessings

Good Morning Airport Friends:

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is my last day of work before my wedding. Today is going to be a good day. I am so happy that I am learning new things and will get to branch out on my job and do new things. They are training me on domestic travel. So not only can I help you with your insurance but I am also able to help book a hotel stay, car rental, flight, domestic (inside the USA tour). I can get you attraction tickets. It is great. I love it. So interesting to learn. I am still learning until the end of next month but I will get it.

@mkksemail - I am so glad they let you come in later in the day. That test is really important. Pizza sounds so good. Juneteenth was pretty good here. We had a celebration over the weekend. It was great. There was music, bouncy house for the kids, food trucks, vendors, games, and lots of facts. It was pretty awesome.

Well it is time for some food. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Tabatha

Happy Tuesday, travellers! 🙋‍♀️

Tabatha .... Ooooo, I'm excited for you! 👏 Hoping you have perfect weather, on the day! Your Juneteenth celebration sounds fantastic! Good time for all 😄

Still 😝 weather up here in Maine. God rather than rain today 🤪

Wtg, macrat!! 👏
(Still wishing for paragraphs in your post 😊)

Hello everyone! I am new to the challenge! I have been off and on (mostly off) MFP for ten (!) years now. I almost always hit my goal and as soon as I stop logging my food and exercise, I gain it all back. Sadly, I have noticed an upward trend in my highest weight with each cycle of "dieting". I am the very definition of yo-yo, lol. I signed up for this challenge because I have hit my goal and I really want to maintain it! Looking forward to meeting you all, my team (unassigned right now), getting started, and learning from each other!

good afternoon everyone! it is a beautiful, warm sunny day here today. my daughter says hi to all. she is working at her part time job after school today. both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! i went for a short run earlier this morning and i really enjoyed it. i went for a walk a while ago and i feel great! i will be doing some dancing later on. i went to a free drop in art program this morning at the building that is not too far from my building. i like to do things related to arts and crafts whenever i can. have a great day, everyone! take care and stay safe.

Good afternoon folks, a cool rainy/sunny day here, got my exercise and the LTGL all done and accounted for. It's been a quiet day here today, not much going on - too much munching though, gonna have to boot that snackmonsterintothecorner!!
@Tabatha_Cain - woohoo won't be long now and you will be Joe's Mrs!! I am sure you are excited and nervous as well - it's finally arriving and everything seems to be coming together !
@p21usa welcome to the 5% challenge, have you ever been on sparkpeople? Just wondering. I know I was on and off MFP for a few years as well but I did like their tracking but now I am not so crazy about it. I like these challanges as they teach me new ways to manage my food rather then diet - managing food puts me in control MOST of the time, but I do allow for a crazy day here and there, today is one of them, munching everything in sight almost. Good thing it is cherries and apple and less useless carbs... anyway welcome again !!
@everyone hope you have a wonderful day and evening and you get a lot accomplished. I remind myself that success is not always related to a weigh-in scale - sometimes the win is in something else !!

Hsppybl Birthday,! How fun 👏🥳
