Just For Today, Saturday / 12/21/24* Make 24 hr plan & assess yesterday’s :blush: Done * Drink 64+ oz water. Drink at three fills of pink stainless steel bottle. Can have a hot cup of herbal tea also. * 30 minutes intentional activity. Close Activity Rings on watch. Goal = 6,000 steps. Get outside and “touch a tree”!…

Happy Friday JFT friends! It looks like a winter wonderland out my window today…very pretty and Christmasy as long as I don’t have to go outside. ☀️❄️🎄 Got peanut butter balls and peanut clusters done yesterday. Today is spritz and jello cookies, and hopefully decorating sugar cookies. I really do not enjoy frosting…

Good morning! Snowy day in Wisconsin. Winter warning in effect, so my plan to go to H’s wrestling meet and give grandson T a ride to and from basketball practice has been cancelled since they just announced early school release and no after school activities. I’m good with that though. Snow days are perfect for baking,…

Good morning! Happy Hump Day! Getting lots done, although it doesn’t feel like it. Yesterday I had to stop and remind myself that every year I stress out worrying whether I will get everything done…and not once, ever, have we had Christmas ruined because of something I didn’t get done! Whatever HAS to be done, will get…

Good morning! Got some baking done yesterday and a few areas decluttered. Boy, when we put these decorations away, I really need to do a thorough declutter of this whole house! It's ridiculous the amount of stuff I've saved and shoved in a drawer or closet "just in case". Today is more baking and husband is putting lights…

@TerriRichardson112 Nice to see you! Good job on your Weightloss. I agree with @cschmitz110515…you really are an inspiration! @pridesabtch that’s a LOT of baking! I’m baking for 30 people who will be here on Christmas Eve and that feels like a lot to me. @clicketykeys I hope you can take a breath over the holidays. You…

Good morning! Happy Monday! Got some baking and decorating done this weekend, so I’m feeling better about that. Today will be more baking, decorating the tree (finally) and running the grandkids to and from practices today. Our Christmas tree has been in the stand in the living room since Friday, but it was frozen so we…

Oh Joan, I’m so sorry. Depression is hard enough to deal with but adding pain and stress of a surgery on top of it, that’s a lot to handle. Your poor daughter has had such a rough go of it. And that’s really hard on a mama who just wants to take all the hurt away. It’s a helpless feeling, for sure. But you’re right.…

Happy Saturday! 10 more days until we have 30 family members come for Christmas celebration. Oh my! I’d best get my *kitten* in gear! Hope everyone is well! At least it’s above 0° today in Wisconsin… Have a great weekend everyone! Hugs & prayers to those who need them and love to all. Just For Today, Saturday 12/14/24*…

Good morning! Happy Friday! Busy day doing Christmas stuff and attending grandkids’ sports. I’m so far behind. Energy is lagging and the below zero temps do NOT help. Still trying to figure out why I live in a northern state! 🥶 @kaynelvb welcome back! Good luck with your goals today! @Bex953172 Good for you! You sound like…

Hello JFT friends! Didn’t have time to hop on yesterday. We went to Tim’s aunts funeral, went to my oncology appointment and then my grandson called and asked if I would come to his basketball game, so of course we did that! Today is going to be spent getting stuff done around here. I have not done one single thing to get…

Good morning! I had a pretty sedentary day yesterday but made pretty healthy food choices and logged everything in MFP, so that was a win. My husband fell off a ladder getting Christmas decorations out of the attic in the garage on Saturday so is laid up on the couch elevating his ankle, and I spent most of the day hanging…

Oh Bex. I’m so, so sorry! This is such sad news. There’s no way to plan for going through something like this. All you can do is take it day by day and just be there when your MIL, FIL, Ash or the girls need you to listen…. I wish I could give you a real in-person hug, my friend. I wish there was something I could do to…

Good morning! Happy Friday! Yesterday was a bust…lots of ❌s. Boo. Today will be better. 🥸 Cold, gray and windy here in Wisconsin. 🥶 I have been very tired this week, and it’s almost like I’m fighting a cold today. My brain wants to get some activity but my body wants to cuddle under a blanket and hot beverage with a book.…

Good morning! Pretty good day yesterday. Didn’t get my water in AGAIN…not sure why this is such a struggle! I mean it’s just water! Today’s a new day. I’m going to use my 26 oz aqua stainless steel water bottle and fill it 3 x before bed. See if that helps. 🤷🏻‍♀️🥸 @cschmitz110515 Yes, I’m sure it’ll take time for your…

Good morning! We are expecting snow flurries today and the sky is rather gray and gloomy. I can handle the cold weather of Wisconsin winters but the gray skies can be so depressing. Makes it hard to want to get out of my pj’s and actually do something. Yesterday was my first StayStrong session. There were only 3 of us…

Just caught up on posts. Too late to post goals for today but wanted to check in. Today was my first session of StayStrong, which is the strength and balance program that follows once you complete LiveStrong. I hadn't done anything that physical in a few weeks so I sure did feel it today! My knees were really aching. I…

Good morning! I have a ton of stuff to do today! We do all the food prep and baking today, and we have over 20 people coming tomorrow, so that’ll take up most of my day! Happy Thanksgiving Eve to my American friends! 🦃🍁🍷 @pridesabtch Sounds like you’ve got some fun busy days ahead! Enjoy! @cschmitz110515 I’m glad you’re…

Good morning! It’s only 24° here today but it’s sunny at least. Windy, so with the wind chill, it feels like 12°….🥶 I need to take my dog for a walk and I’m procrastinating. My husband usually takes her, but he’s not home from deer camp until tonight. My 12-week assessment at LiveStrong yesterday was so good! I went from…

Happy Monday JFT friends! This will be quick. It’s my last meeting with LiveStrong. We are having the assessment done to see how much progress we made in the 12 weeks we met. I can tell I’m stronger, but my balance is still very bad, so I don’t think my numbers will improve when I get assessed on standing on one leg…but…

Photos of the quilt I referred to in my post above. I made it for my my granddaughter who has black, white and red in her dorm room. Unfortunately it doesn’t look quite like this after washing it…. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Good morning! My goodness, there’s a lot going on! @cschmitz110515 hope your sweet dog go is healing well. 🫂🩷 @pridesabtch Ugh….roaches, termites and mice? I would’ve felt creepy crawly too. I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. @Bex953172 Ouch! That had to hurt like heck! Let Ash pick up the slack and let it heal so you…

@HappyDonkey75 I’m sorry to hear about your knee pain. I hope you get some answers and feel better soon! 💞 I’ve heard similar things from friends when they go off or lower the dose of their GLP meds. The chatter in their brain is louder they said. Did you have it before going on GLP med? I’m curious, is it back to what it…

@cschmitz110515 Awesome photo! I’ve never seen an upside rainbow before either. Good luck tomorrow with your dig’s surgery. 💞 I also wanted to congratulate your latest scale success! Good for you!

Happy Thursday! @pridesabtch that really was a crappy day! I’m glad you weren’t hurt when you hit the deer and your car isn’t damaged. Good luck with the exterminator’s inspection! @mytime6630 Have a wonderful visit with your son and grands! I think your menu sounds wonderful…something for everyone. Perfect! Nobody will go…

Good morning! Happy Monday! It’s a gray, windy cold day in Wisconsin. I guess I’d better learn to suck it up since we have 6 months of it ahead of us… 🥶😶‍🌫️ @more_freggies76 I think you’re correct as far as fasting labs and coffee…. Good luck with them! Hope all goes well. @mytime6630 I’m the same! I posted every day…

Checking in! Hope everyone had a great weekend! I’ve been fighting coming down with a cold, so although I don’t feel good, I don’t feel sick either if that makes sense. I’ve been resting the past couple of days, but today I felt a little better so I attended online church service and then spent time in the kitchen batch…

Good morning! It's a beautiful fall day in Wisconsin. Air is crisp but it is sunny with blue skies so I'm happy, happy, happy. Husband is sick, sick, sick. He's had a cough, headache and sore throat since Tuesday, and today he woke up with body aches that have him lying on the couch. He rarely ever gets sick so I feel just…

Good morning! Fall is in the air in Wisconsin, that's for sure. We had record breaking 80 degree weather earlier in the week and today it's....well....brrrrrr. Sunny though! Last night it got cold and really windy for the kiddos who were trick or treating. Felt so bad for them. Didn't get as many as we usually do so have a…

Still trying to catch up, but had a few things I wanted to comment on... @mytime6630 Triple Irish Chain quilt? I had to Google it. Oh my goodness, they are so pretty! They look very difficult too. Are you doing machine embroidery of the animals or embroidery by hand? I'd love to see a photo when you're done! @clicketykeys…
