Good Morning ShapeShifters,
My Name is Jen, I live in a small town in Southern Alberta Canada. I work at the Post Office, I'm married and this August will be our 22 Anniversary! I have a 20-year-old son and my daughter just turned 18 last Thursday! I love reading, I'll read just about anything, fantasy, romance, thriller, mystery, biographies ect. I also love music of all kinds, I enjoy camping with friends and family.
Steps:
Mar 25= 10,800
Mar 26= 6639
Mar 27= 12,520
Mar 28= 8758
Mar 29= 9413
Mar 30= 6671
Sorry for so many days at once, the Easter Weekend and daughter's B'Day kept me very busy.
I would like to sign up for the April step challenge, please. I'll keep my steps at 10,000 per day. When the weather is nice I like to walk around my neighbourhood.4 -

Hi! I can't believe another month has passed by so quickly again friends. Well, I feel like I repeat myself on the welcome posts, but I'm a 49 year old eccentric living in the Pacific Northwest / Oregon Coast. I collect Lucky Cats (cat lover!) and have been learning Japanese. I'm visiting Okinawa in May! Maybe some of my studying will pay off when I can locate a bathroom or exit, lol.
Yesterday I went to Longbeach Washington, it's about a 45 minute drive from my house and has an excellent trail, coffee and kites. Here's some photos
Kites
The cool boardwalk that runs along the ocean.
A sign warning about goat head stickers in the grass, but soon this sign is going to be covered in cool stickers, as is the tradition here.
My favorite cat, Wookie Bear -- I hate having favorites but she's just so adorable.
I'm originally from Oklahoma, lived in the Ozarks for a long while and taught (tech and design) and now for health reasons I'm 'retired' and painting / arting on the coast but just personal stuff, not gallery works yet or anything (I have a BFA in fine art so have done the gallery jam, it's just kinda hollow and weird). My dream is to go back to running. Cheers!

Whoever wants to participate can - list your step count for each day at the beginning of the month and where you like to walk and post your steps every day or every two days - the captains enter your steps in a spreadsheet0 -
@izzyred9400 - I like your Easter tradition of cleaning and dressing up your decorative rabbit!
It’s a cute way to mark the transition to spring! ☺️1 -

@DaffyGirl88 It's mentioned in the FAQ posting on pg 1 of each month's thread. If you know where the weight chart is to see all of the weigh in stats, you simply scroll down under the weight chart and there's the Step Challenge chart. You agree to post your steps every 2-3 days in the monthly chat thread and your Captains will keep the chart updated. I announce the winners (top 3 walkers) every week and at the end of the month, I post the Monthly winner. Just an extra chance to be a little competitive and active every day. Post your first name for the chart please. Good luck!

Sunday ~ March 31
Good morning Shape Shifters. As I promised myself, I stepped on the scale. There was a 6.5 pound gain which I thought was not bad at all after 9 days of practically binge eating. I was mostly worried I wouldn't be in onederland anymore, but I (just barely) was! I am looking forward to seeing the number go down again.
I had a nice walk in a little bit of fog. I love walking on Sundays because it is so quiet. I saw a male bullfinch in the forest for the first time. I have only seen this bird twice before when I was at a bird hide with my mom, so seeing one in 'the wild' was very neat. There were also new ponies in the field to pet.
I started and finished a cute wooden puzzle. It was only 199 pieces, but still a nice challenge. I had a lot of fun with it. In the afternoon I did my gym rings workout and then I mowed some grass in the front yard. One area was getting really bad and today was sunny and dry so I figured it would be good to get that done. After that, I cleaned up my kitchen and did the dishes. I had been saving them up for like two weeks, so it was pretty gross and long overdue. It is interesting that the state of my kitchen always reflects my mental health, lol. If I don't feel well, the kitchen is the first and only area of the house that turns into a disaster. I planned to clean Saturday already, but I was too tired so I am glad to have it done now. Happy Monday everyone

@jessicakrall8 Thanks for the pointers, I've found the steps. I still don't see any FAQs, though, on either the F2F main page or page one of this thread. Am I looking in the wrong place?0 -

FAQ for New Shape Shifters Members
How do I sign up for the Step Challenge?
Send the Captains a message that you'd like to join, provide your daily step goal and tell her your favorite place to walk. It's that simple! Please be aware though, you're making a commitment to post your steps every 2-3 days, which helps the Captains keep the stats caught up. If you're not willing to do this, please do not sign up. (THANKS!!)
@DaffyGirl88 It's halfway down the first page. Jessica always posts some information. Above is the quote about the step challenge.
