After a challenging week, it was nice to have a quiet, relaxing weekend. My younger son and his partner came down to visit and helped my husband and me with some yardwork. I wasn't able to contribute much because my HR is back up, so I'm trying to move up my follow-up with the cardiologist. Today I'm trying to get back on…

I taught my last class on Monday and had my cardiac procedure yesterday. Both went well, although I woke up with a wicked sore throat from the TEE. My HR is back to a normal rhythm, so I'm hoping to get back to a normal energy level and my regular activities in a few days. I spent much of yesterday sleeping off the effects…

@HappyDonkey75 - So glad to hear your dad got better news from the second doctor. I'm hoping that his treatment goes smoothly and successfully. @pridesabtch - I hope all goes well with your father-in-law's surgery and that both you and your husband find joy in Sierra's accomplishments.

@Bex953172 - I'm really glad to hear your dental work went smoothly. To be honest, I was surprised when my dentist referred me to an endodontist because my previous dentist would have done the root canal himself. I don't know why, but a lot of medical professionals here tend to specialize. My dentist does fillings, crowns,…

This week has been a challenge, and I haven't set goals. I went in for a root canal on Tuesday, but the endodontist wound up recommending extraction and referred me to an oral surgeon. However, scheduling that is complicated because I take a blood thinner and will need to stay on it for at least 6 weeks after my cardiac…

At the top of today's agenda is a trip to the endodontist for an emergency root canal - ugh! - so I'm not going to post other goals. I imagine I won't be eating much anyway.

Didn't get much done outdoors yesterday, but I managed to get all caught up on grading. This will be the last full week of classes for the semester. I'll have a ton of final papers coming in, so I'm glad to have gotten all of the preliminary assignment grading done. Today's forecast is for showers on and off, but i'm…

Low energy again today - the heat and humidity didn't help - but I managed to get in a short walk. My husband and I had lunch out and then stopped at the garden center to get some pond plants. He worked on the garden while I took a nap. And that was it for the day. As my afib has gotten worse over the last few months, I've…

Yesterday's weather was lovely, lifting my spirits and my energy level for a bit. I got a lot done early in the day but took a nap later in the afternoon. I'm hoping to get some work done in the garden and walk with my husband before the rain moves in. I'm still working on reading posts but thinking about all of you. Recap…

@mytime6630 - Happy (belated) anniversary! I hope your husband's surgery is scheduled soon and goes well. @Bex953172 - So sorry for your loss. I hope you and your family find comfort in your memories. @HappyDonkey75 - Glad to hear your knee issue is less serious. Good for you on doing something for yourself. As women, we…

Hi JFT friends! I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday. The last couple of weeks have been busy ones with a couple of birthdays, Easter festivities, and the grandkids' spring break. I had a couple of days off because my early college classes were also on break, so we went on a mini road trip with the older grandkids to…

Well, I got off to a really slow start this year, but March turned out to be a good reset for some healthy habits. I even lost a few pounds. Posting on JFT made me more accountable, and logging regularly helped me make better food choices and keep my calories in the green. This month's focus will be on getting more…

Hi everyone! I need to catch up on reading posts, but I hope all is well. Last week was my college's spring break and there was just so much going on that I took the week off off from logging and posting. I did my best to get some exercise, limit snacks and portion sizes, and make healthy choices, but trying to log would…

Didn't post goals today, but they were the same as yesterday's. I was up super early to take my husband in for a minor medical procedure with general anesthesia. He took the rest of the day off, so it was nice to have some quiet time to catch up before another busy weekend. I finally got my errands done this afternoon, but…

Yesterday was a mixed bag. I logged, staying under my calorie limit and staying hydrated, but I didn't hit my other goals (exercise, chores, grading). Instead, I went to Joann to pick up some fabric that I need for a craft. While I was there, I picked up a bunch of yarn, mostly their Big Twist store brand. I'm so sad their…

Not sure what's up with MFP. Lists are automatically double-spaced, including the goals I copy-pasted from the day before. Looks like we have fewer editing tools too. :(
