Happy Friday! I’m a little exhausted from yesterday due to the pup not feeling well and having accidents inside the house. I’m going to work from home today, just to make sure I am around in case he needs to go out. Hoping to find some energy this morning for my workout that I have planned.5 -

Not getting discouraged, I know several changes I can make. Had a lovely kayak yesterday after work and planning to do the same today. happy weekend all!6 -
Hello Team,
I have not been doing well, but I am giving myself some grace, I've been feeling a little down due to a falling out with a friend, so I am turning it around. I am taking off a half day today, and going to the pool, it is finally really nice out, mid 80's with low humidity...
Tomorrow hubby and I head up to Longwood Gardens, they are having a fireworks and fountain show, it's always themed, and tomorrow the theme is Prince, so everything is choreographed to his music, it's going to be so much fun, they put on awesome shows. Anyway, since the weather is co-operating, we are planning on getting there around 2-3pm, so we can adventure around and walk all of meadow trails. We got a hotel up there, so Sunday after driving home, will be grocery shopping, laundry and food prep. Or blow all that off and go to the pool, we will see how the day goes.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend !9 -
Happy Friday! I made it to my CrossFit class last night, and man did it wear me out! Tonight I finally get to meet some of my husband's favorite coworkers by going out to dinner with all of them. We're going to one of my favorite Mexican restaurants and I already have my meal picked out. Then, tomorrow, I get to play pickleball in the morning. It should be a fun weekend!
What does everyone else have planned for the weekend?2 -
@wishfuljune - great loss
@Gidgitgoescrzy - don't get too down on yourself, friendships can be difficult. Have a great weekend.
I've had a busy week with work but so excited for tonight. I've just found out my cousin is eloping tonight and getting married. It's only myself and another friend who knows. Tonight, they are having the wedding ceremony with dinner after. I'm still in shock that they decided so last minute to get married and it's not typical in our family to elope, but so excited for them and that I get to celebrate with them.
My husband and daughter are off camping this weekend for a father/daughter weekend. I have a few jobs around the house I want to tackle.4 -

Glad the heat is finally back to just normal hot instead of insane here. I skipped my walks earlier in the week because it was just too miserable, and cut today's a bit short because I feel like I have a cold... it's a wierd reaction to dental anesthesia a couple days ago, and my nose hasn't quite recovered yet.
@Gidgitgoescrzy Longwood is so beautiful! I'm jealous, I haven't been there in a very long time.3 -
Great losses @Ruth_2024 and @wishfuljune!!
@Kali225 that's right, don't get discouraged. Just look at what you did this past week and small tweaks you can make.
@cleaneater80 have fun at the elopement tonight!
@MaddawgMadsen I have no plans this weekend! I go to the gym Saturday mornings and it may be cooler. So I am going to get some work in the yard done.
So today was stressful. Anyone else have trouble with their computers? More than 1/2 our computers wouldn't start and kept having the blue screen of death. I'm just glad it's Saturday tomorrow!!3 -

Hi all!
I have been very far from my computer these days, and never log in on the phone - but it feels good to dip back in and hear all your news. I'm enjoying just hanging out, being outdoors (especially now that the horrid hot muggy weather is over at least for a bit), and not doing much. We're catching up on lots of house sprucing up, which always seems slow and not very interesting but needs to be done. The garden is always calling - it sure liked the hot humid weather! The tomatoes are so huge I had to get out there with more stakes and tie them up so they would not flop all over the place. First eggplants are getting ripe - but the beans are slow.
@Ruth_2024 So glad I'm not the only one who has weird reactions to dental anaesthesia! Upper jaw always messes up the sinuses, and lower jaw is wicked on the glands, ear pain, and general swelling. My dentist now only uses half doses, which seems to work just fine. I hate the days of repercussions. The half dose manages to kill all the pain, so next time I'm going to ask for even less. Hope yours feels better soon.
@ashleycarole86 congrats on the Gran Fondo even if your distance was not like last year. It's so good you were back on the bike 🚴🏼♀️
This weekend? Horseback ride with a friend Saturday morning, walk with a friend Saturday evening, a vernissage of an interesting art exhibit, and a demonstration of some kind of fancy carving by a friend of my husband's on Sunday. Should be fun, and we'll surely fit in some work on the porch and more painting and garden work in there somewhere.
Have a good one, everyone!

Hi I’ll like to be exempted please. I’m down with COVID4

@zankash23 oh no! Feel better soon!
@jugar any pictures of your garden?
I had a perfect day today! I stayed under calorie goal and did 4 miles on the eliptical. I did something to my back (not sure if it was deadlifts during body pump) and was in a decent amount of pain Thursday. It's feeling better today, but didn't want to chance it with my regular body pump class today.
It did rain a lot though, so I didn't get to do much outside. But we needed the rain, so that's ok. Tomorrow is my sleep in day and then we will see what the weather brings. My tomato plants are starting to flower, so I hope for some tomatoes to start growing soon!!3 -

Thank you! I was very consistent with my workouts, walking my dog in the morning before the heat, and snacks throughout the day. I have been living for protein bars, light string cheese, and fruit as snack options.

Didn’t do well on my goals this week, but the scale went down at least. My goal this week is to lose again next week instead of gaining the same weight back.4 -

Great week - good rest, smart decisions and mindful workouts. Hit a new road record of 24 miles on the bike / 40.5 km (this morning) - trying to add light weights and stretching this week.
Congrats to all who struggled, stuck with it and gain a little victory.
