Welcome, @angela233Z! It really is all about mindset. I am sure that you will be successful! @Meghan509 Have fun with all those appointments! I did a long fast on Monday as a reset. I felt so much better after, but then I have been terrible this week. :/ The commute this morning was the best... like ever! I either need to…

The traffic has been so light this week! I am off tomorrow. I hope it stays smooth the rest of the week. I am finishing up the stack of files that I have been working on. It did not go as smoothly as I was hoping. BUT, I will have it scanned in so if we get hit with a snow storm in the next wee bit, I will be able to work…

Well, I am back! We had a great week! Lots of family and friends and relaxation and getting stuff done. I hope it was a good week for you too! Now, to catch up on work from being a week away! :open_mouth:

@Meghan509 It sounds like you have a wonderful week off planned. :) It is really quiet here, too. I have a short stack of things to do so that when I come back, I won't have to dive into anything difficult. Also gotta remember to water my plant well. It is a succulent, otherwise, I would take it home with me. This weekend…

@Meghan509 I looked at the CRV when I was car shopping last year. I am short and it wasn't as easy to see out of as the Rav4, otherwise, I would have gone for it. Also, I totally feel you on the to-do list. I was fully unmotivated after lunch yesterday, but now I really want to get this stack done so my desk is clear…

Nothing ruins a Friday like realizing it is only Wednesday! LOL I am actually having a pretty good day. I am getting over the sinus infection I have been battling for a while. The stack of files I just pulled looks like it won't be too bad. We are having a department luncheon today (pizza and chit-chat). And only two more…

@Meghan509 Sounds like you are on a roll this week! Way to go! It is so great when you work with a nice group of people. I hope your good week keeps going! I was on such a roll yesterday. Today, not so much. But, only three more alarms and then a week off! Have a good one!

Good morning! I had a nice weekend. I made a lot of progress on the quilt I am trying to finish, went shopping with my BIL's wife, watched a lot of silly Christmas movies, and relaxed. Five days and then I have a week off! I hope the weekend was fantastic for you, too! Off to finish the tricky stuff and have an easy…

@Meghan509 I hope today is a good day and you enjoy your afternoon and lunch! Glad the colonoscopy went well, too. Not much going on here. I did not get nearly as much done yesterday as I wanted. This stack of folders is all messed up and I have to untangle records. Oh, well. If I get this all done today, I can start next…

Holy cow! That is a bad commute day, @Meghan509! Glad that you have a nice group to work with and the new VP is nice. Good people make all the difference. I dropped a whole bunch of water weight overnight and I feel much better today from all the things I have had going on. Not much going on in my world today. I want to…

@Meghan509 I hope your luncheon was nice. I hope things slow down a bit. I had to laugh about the pushy salesman. My husband went to take his new vehicle in to get its first oil change and they hung a note on the rearview mirror asking if he wanted to sell it... he hasn't even had it a year yet! I am doing the boring part…

@Meghan509 I am working the same days. Best wishes to your BF. My husband had to have one a few years ago. They are not fun. At least it is conveniently located and you can bring him a snack when you pick him up! I am on a roll already today. I have all the motivation! I came to a horrifying realization last week that was…

Welcome to Monday! We had a nice weekend. Got the tree up and some decorations out. I officially decided that I *must* clear out the holiday closet when I am off at Christmas. It has gotten out of hand. :open_mouth: I baked bread yesterday, took it over for dinner at with my husband's brother's family and it was a hit.…

Happy Friday! Just chugging along today. This weekend I am going to get the house decorated and give myself a little spa day after I get all the Christmas shopping done. The office Christmas lunch is on Monday. I am just bringing meatballs. Super easy. I plan to sail through to the end of the month quite smoothly. I am…

I just slogged through a nightmare file. I am having carbs for lunch because my brain hurts now and I am cranky. Today I woke up feeling better, but sounding worse. I think I am now better both ways. :) I think mine was just sinus drainage that moved south. @Meghan509 That is a nice surprise! I hope your weather stays…

@Meghan509 I am glad your day is going well! I would love to go see the museums in DC! That is great that you will get to do that! I am taking off the week of Christmas, and then the next week will be super slow with New Year's off. It will be nice. I am feeling annoyingly cruddy today. Not enough to actually go/stay home,…

Haven't gotten anything done today, but I *did* talk to a coworker that has been working at home since September and is finally able to be back in the office! Super exciting! I completed a 39.5 hour fast. I feel so much better! I am also cruising on down on the scale. :) @Meghan509 I have been watching the national…

Happy Monday! I made it into the office, got all the Monday/long weekend/change of season things done this morning. I am also back down to 20 lbs down. I am in the midst of a 36+ hour fast and my system is feeling better. I hope all is well! Have a great week!

I can't believe it is already the end of the year! November really flew by!

Glad you had a nice day, @Meghan509! We had a very nice Thanksgiving. ☺️ Gratitude, family, and mashed potatoes, who could ask for more? I *did* hit my 20 pound goal Thursday morning. I have definitely rebounded a wee bit. I am going to do a 36+ hour fast starting Sunday. That should reset my system and send me on my way…

I am cruising through my last day this week. Five whole days off is going to be lovely! I hope Thanksgiving is fantastic! Off to try to accomplish something. I am NOT very productive today. I need to get through this stack of things so I can get them in next week... probably not going to happen, but a girl can dream. Have…

@Meghan509, looks like we were posting at the same time! That is a GREAT deal! I am helping cook for Thanksgiving and I am also planning on making a skillet chocolate chip cookie to take for dessert. I might make some bread, too, just because I can and I like to bake and there will be people to eat it. :)

Much less of a Monday than last week! I will take it! :) I got the refrigerator, freezer, and part of the pantry cabinets cleaned out before I ran out of room in the trash. There wasn't much in the fridge and just a bit in the cabinets, but we all have a bad habit of sticking things in the freezer and then never eating it.…

@Meghan509, I hope your week is finishing well! I am on a roll at work, I exercised again, and I am over 21 hours for my fast. I am rockin' this Friday! Have a great weekend!

I am super non-productive today. I guess that balances out the last two very productive days. I have the attention span of a squirrel on meth. I also feel super gross. I am taking all the supplements so that I get over whatever it is fast. We have older people coming to visit for Thanksgiving and I don't want to…

So far, so good today! I exercised again. I am going to need a yoga mat or something if I am going to be doing this in my office. The carpet is very scratchy and the floor is concrete. There is an "exercise" room in our office, but it scares me a little. Maybe I can make it nice and take it over. The roofers are still at…

So, I said I would share my new exercise app. It is called TriadXP. You can build your own workout or use one of theirs. I was actually looking for something exactly like this. I wanted a way to put together a voice-guided version of a couple of little workout routines I have used/found. I was really excited that they…

@Meghan509 I am taking the same day off next week and we will also be closed on Thursday and Friday. Sounds like you had a nice weekend. I shop at the Kroger store here because they have online coupons that make things cheaper than Walmart and the produce and meat departments are so much better. I looked at our dryer. I…

Today has been a MONDAY of a Monday, so far! Let's just say that it started with finding out that my dryer is broken first thing out of bed this morning and it has been all downhill from there. It will get better? Right? BUT I have new computer glasses that make my screens very clear. @Meghan509 I hope you had a nice…

Never did manage to get much done yesterday. But today is Friday! This morning I was thinking that I hadn't packed my lunch and that I would either run and get something or have the same as yesterday from my desk drawer. I went to leave and grab my lunch bag and it wasn't on the counter. I realized that I had packed myself…
