Hour commitment - We need to take our walk before it gets too dark (time change) so I'm going to eat dinner early.
Ok, quick dinner. Now I won't eat again until tomorrow.

Where do the days go lately? I feel like I am busy from the time I get up to the time I finally sit down to eat and then promptly start falling asleep in my recliner watching the news or whatever show we are watching.
Its just been one thing after another for the last week I guess. The studying has also taken a chunk of my time, and trying to squeeze in my workouts . I literally feel like I am running from task to task and every time I turn around there is some other mess to clean up between the old lady dog , the kitchen post dinner, the cats, the horses or some other chore or task that needs doing. I don't know why but I feel disorganized and out of rhythm right now. Things will get sorted out eventually but in the meantime I am trying to keep up.

- woke up to a major #2 mess with the dog- and dealt with her having diarrhea episodes all day today. So she spent alot of time outside. We aren't sure what is causing this but I will be calling the vet tomorrow . We almost decided to euthanize last weekend for the same symptoms but then she rallied and went back to normal and now here we are again. I am actually exhausted dealing with things and the stress of worrying constantly which might be the main reason I am out of sync.
- Worked all day in between taking the dog outside multiple times (grateful for a flexible schedule)
- Walked 20 minutes on my walking pad during a meeting but didn't get my workout in
- Completed one very long complicated chapter in my course and need to get the practice exam done tomorrow and get atleast two more chapters done tomorrow as well ( Off for Veterans day)

Good morning! Cold, gray and windy in our part of Wisconsin today. I’d best get used to it, as it won’t be going away anytime soon. Well, the cold temps anyway…and those are doable if the skies are at least blue…this gray overcast stuff gets old real quick!
Our Green Bay Packers lost last night. What a game…. We normally hear the fireworks from Lambeau Field when the Packers get a touchdown but it was pretty quiet last night. 🥺
Today is treatment day at Oncology, so I plan to get my walk in early and if I have time I want to run over to my mom’s for a quick visit. I usually go there on Tuesday afternoons to watch the live stream of a quilting show we like, but I’ll be at my appointment today. I’ve been spending time every day down in my sewing room piecing together quilt blocks. It’s so relaxing. I’ve really been enjoying it. 🥰
@HappyDonkey75 I sure hope your lady dog gets better soon. It seems too soon for you to lose another! Hugs, friend.
@cschmitz110515 restaurant across from museum….The Depot By chance? I haven’t been there in years and they have such good food! Yum…. Pizza there is good too. Curious, since I don’t get out of town much…which highway are the expanding from 2 lanes to 3? Hwy 43 maybe? I used to drive to Sheboygan a lot for work and it was pretty decent traveling on 43. Glad you had a nice time with family at your dad’s 91st!
Just for Today- 24 hour plan & assess
- Bible plan
- Journal
- Water 64 oz
- Walk Maddie in this INVIGORATING blustery weather
- Oncology appointment
- Fold & put away laundry
- Swap seasonal clothes….seriously…it’s time!
- Log all food…every bite!
- Start bedtime routine 30 minutes early
Remember….Weightloss happens between Hunger and Enough 🥗☕️🫙🌤️

@HappyDonkey75 So sorry for the health issues of your lady dog. On top of everything else. Stress is, well, stressful. Hugs to you!
@PackerFanInGB Ugh, what a horrible game last night. I actually multi-tasked so I couldn't dwell on all the mistakes too much. The dog so wanted me to turn off the TV and go upstairs to bed, and with the final two minutes feeling like the longest ever, I was tempted! I was hoping for a miracle, not really surprised by the ending. Yes, we ate at The Depot. Good food, and I love the red ale (still made by Titletown Brewing, I believe). The highway expansion is I-41 starting at Appleton all the way up to Green Bay. Going to be 3 lanes each way. Construction has mostly been in the southern section, and they're working their way north. So far, a lot of overpasses have been rebuilt to accommodate more lanes. Also they started roadway prep for the new South Bridge to cross the Fox River (connects I-41 to east side without going completely through downtown DePere).
