Good Morning Airport Friends:

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Friday. It is Joe's last day of work at his current job. It is going to be so hard sleeping in. This morning we were up at 4:15 am. Both Joe and I had to use the bathroom and I think he is a little nervous to go in today. I hope he has a good day. Today is going to be great. I can tell. I got 2 more memberships yesterday for my job. I am at 6 for the month already. I am excited to get more. I really am. I like getting memberships.

@CSEGUIN2 - Good luck with everything. I do agree that sometimes just talking about things that have to be done cause more stress.
@Kurtize - That sounds amazing. How did you get signed up for that?
@Sand_TIger - Thank you for the recipe. I cannot wait to give it a go. Will possibly be making them this weekend. So if I need to tweak it I will let you know. I am not a baker. I just follow recipes. My daughter is a baker. Unfortunately we are not talking right now.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Friday,

Tabatha

Good afternoon all, happy Friday and weekend. Getting ready for take off.
@Tabatha_Cain- I started doing these challenges a few years ago. Got it away from it when we moved to Texas, but decided to start back up. They keep me motivated. Here is link to the challenges. They do cost money but it helps plant trees or clean plastic from ocean. The one I am doing was a special one so not sure if it is on the list.

It is a little warm in mid 80's but not bad. Not too much new here. Have a great rest of the day and heading to the airport.

Good Morning Airport Friends:

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Saturday and I am thinking it will be a good day. Joe and I are going to do some grocery shopping today and we are going to get his car an oil change. We might move his motorcycle from my sisters garage up to his parents to be put up for the winter. He usually fills the tank up with fuel and puts the battery on the trickle charger over the winter to keep the battery from being dead due to the cold in the spring. He forgot to do it last winter and he had to charge his battery before being about to take it out on the road. It is suppose to rain on and off all day so I am not to keen on him driving it up the 44 minutes to his parents. I just don't feel it is safe but he has driven motorcycle long enough to know if he can handle it.

@CSEGUIN2 - That is awesome. I knew you would do well. I am sure you will do well with the final assessment. I do a last minute study too. I always have and it works for me.
@Kurtize - I did 2 5k runs in 2022 and then stopped because I did not have time to train in 2023 due to planning my wedding. I now want to get back into jogging and stuff. Although now it is going to be super cold. So I will have to figure out different ways to get my jogging in. Thank you for the link. I went through it with my husband. We actually may do those. We bookmarked the link to come back to to sign up for one. They look really cool.
@Sand_TIger - Congrats on the new position. Joe is a pumpkin spice diva. We have already bought 2 bags of pumpkin spice coffee so he will have it all year around. I am trying to find a way to increase my exercise. We are seriously thinking of doing the virtual challenges that Kurtize posted. It would be a great idea. My husband and I could do it together and they have one called Jesus walk which is suppose to be the same path that Jesus took on his mission walk. Obviously it is virtual so there would be an app and we would not actually be there but it looks really cool.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday.

Hello all!

It's been a rough week for me. Glad it's over.

My dietitian ordered me to try a vegan diet. I am cutting back slowly!

I've done those conqueror challenges and they're a lot of fun! I stopped doing them when my fitness tracker bit the dust.

Nice sunny morning! I harvested two beans. (Long beans again. About 12-18 inches long usually.) Shortly I'll go out and get more rat-tailed radish pods and some African huckleberries. They love my constant full sun! Mystery squash vine dropped one of the fruit so I dissected it, looks like a baby yellow squash of some kind, basically cylindrical in shape. Glad it's not a zucchini. Another fruit is doing fine and growing and there are more flowers coming out.

I got a lot of mild walking yesterday during errands, I always park as far away from the store as I can because this is one of the few ways I can go for a walk. I also started using my mini stepper again, basically it's a small stairmaster without rails. And did a bunch of gardening which involved a lot of bending and squatting. Stayed well within calories. I'm thinking about going back to three meals on days when I have a lot of activity and saving the time restricted eating (11 to 7) for days when I'm sitting most of the time and don't have as much time for exercise.

Today the plan is to do more gardening, mostly harvesting and weeding, then more stepper, then finish off with a good full-body strength session with my small weight collection. I have more time today so I'll use it! Wishing everyone the best as we begin this challenge.

Good evening, everyone! It's a cool day here today. My daughter says hello to all. 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 after lunch and I feel great! I'll be doing some dancing later on
Have a great day, everyone! Take care and stay safe

@Tabatha_Cain, hon I am so sorry!!! I can't imagine the fear you feel. I lost my Mom to a very aggressive cancer, but that was in 92, things are better now. I sure hope they can help her. Please keep up with your own exams. We are here with you. Walking helps with anxiety as does any ST you do. It won't take care of it, but it's a healthy alternative to eating (So many of us are emotional eaters). If we could reach out to you physically for a hug we SURE WOULD Tabatha!! This will have to do
@Kurtize, LOVE the progress!! Excellent job!!
