Hi 👋

Did I miss the new chat thread? I'll check back again later.

@Katmary71 for some reason I don't really do very well with veggies. I think it's partially because when it's time to harvest, the spiders are out in full force. Lol… I freak out when a spider gets close 😅😅😅

I don't really have much going on today… I need to put some edging down in one of my gardens. When I water it, the water runs right out, instead of staying in the garden. So maybe I'll start working on that, I don't know, hmm... we will see what happens.

Y'all have a great day 😀

@baodell17724 There’s some confusion right now with the spreadsheet and your weigh-in, do you recall if you may have said your starting weight was 209.4 as that’s currently down as your starting weight for the June spreadsheet? I’m thinking the easiest way to clear it up since the spreadsheet for May is closed now is to put your starting weight for June as 208.4 and move forward if you’re good with that. I posted in the Captain’s thread to clear it up but want to make sure you’re not in the top three as you deserve to get recognized if you are. I’ll update you when we figure it out.

@trooworld Woot woot you’re a self-starter too! Oh no that caffeine headache sucks so bad! Yay way to go on joining the gym! That’s sweet of your husband to join too. Definitely ask if they have someone who can show you around most gyms would rather a trainer show you how to use things than for people to learn the hard way. Good luck with the exhibit!

@alimalli86 Welcome to Mission Slimpossibles, please jump right in we’re happy you’re here!

@TeresaW2024 LOL I’ve been tempted to get the same bird feeder your niece has thinking it would be fun for my cats to watch the birds. How do the squirrels get to it is there a ledge or something nearby? I actually was talking to another person at the community garden about fencing our stuff and what a pain it would be. It’s frustrating something took a bite out of my cucumber stem and killed it. I did try something I’ll talk about it at the end! Shoot I’m sorry the bestie couldn’t come. I’m sorry to hear about your sister’s job, I hope she does find something that is a better fit.

@askewcr Woohoo way to go on the weigh in! You went and got it, haha!

@DrewsAnna The new chat thread was started I’m guessing this afternoon. Oh no I’m not a spider fan either!

Hi gang! Long day I got up early and worked out then had checked Next Door for T posts and someone was selling 15 6ft new ones for $30 so I jumped on it, they ended up throwing some great fencing in too! I stopped at the Asian grocery store and somehow in between my excitement at finding a tea I love and picking it up I grabbed the wrong box, grrrr. I got a $1 coupon at checkout that I'm planning to use when I go back and grab the cherry hibiscus rose Ahmad tea (I got peppermint lemon which is good but not like the tea I wanted). I got some spinners for my garden at Dollar Tree too and dropped those off in my beds at the garden to hopefully deter squirrels. I ran by the Pet store to ask about the kittens and turns out there’s 6 of them so the plan is they’re going to divide them in half for two fosters. They were just trapped (feral) and they’re hoping to keep them with their mom for another week, they’re currently in a volunteer’s bathroom. I spent over an hour writing down prices and varieties of litter and food. I was nervous about feeding so many kittens quality kitten food but feel better after talking to another volunteer about it not needing to be high end. Got in some good garden time too but have a bad headache right now for some reason. It was 105 today and think deadheading in the heat got to me. Tomorrow’s cleaning the house, getting kitten stuff, and taking my two in for shots then getting updated on the kittens late afternoon. I was craving ice cream or popcorn so bad but had a really good salad instead and feel good about it. Have a great Sunday!

Admins will likely post this later, but if you are looking for it, like I was- here is the June thread:

@alimalli86 Welcome to the team! I can't wait to learn more about you!

@19shmoo69 you have to click on MISSION SLIMPOSSIBLE TEAM CHAT - JUNE 2025, not the link. It will take you to the right page. Congrats on the loss.

@TeresaW2024 Oh dear! Well, I didn't snack yesterday at all...no time...more on that below. I am primarily interested in free weights. I probably won't use the abductor machine, especially after you told me that lol! Well, that will be a big change for your sister. That's too bad she was pushed to her limit. I hope she finds a new job quickly. Have a good day!

@askewcr That's good your weight is going down and a good idea not to eat after 8.

@Katmary71 Yeah I didn't think I got caffeine headaches but low and behold, I do! I already got a tour when I signed up but they aren't going to show me specific machines and hand hold me through my workout like I want/need. I could have gotten one free training session but when they offered, my husband interjected and told them I didn't need it, which is not true but he didn't want to pay for more sessions so I guess I'm not getting the free one. :( Thank you about the exhibit, more on that below. That's good you got what you needed on Nextdoor for a good deal. 3 kittens coming your way...how exciting! When you do get them, be sure and spam us with all the pictures! :D

Hi all. Work turned out to be nearly 4 hours instead of a few. There were some problems with the installation of the exhibit and some very stressful moments. It's over though, so that's good. I had to go to Sam's Club and get a tire rotation after that and while waiting, I picked up a double-pack of card games: https://www.explodingkittens.com/products/poetry-for-neanderthals and https://www.explodingkittens.com/products/really-loud-librarians We played Really Loud Librarians last night, it was tough but fun. Then we realized that Poetry for Neanderthals is really a more-than-2-players game so we played the game Hive, which is really fun and a bit like chess. I really want to go to the gym today but the Rock & Roll Marathon is today and it closes down all the streets around the gym (and the coffee shop we like to go to) until mid-morning so we'll see if we go. I will prepare a workout just in case. I am using ChatGPT to plan a functional strength training workout meaning a workout that will help me get up off the floor should I fall, or if I get in the tub, I can get out by myself.

Tracked yesterday? Yes
