Happy Sunday! Lots going on lately and I haven't been taking the time to log onto my computer to check in. I need to make it a habit to begin my day with y'all again. I did "Just for Today" for years faithfully and it helped me so dang much. But after I stopped working, I stopped spending 8-10 hours per day on a computer…

@Michaela_LaGata Very inspirational. I am in such a state of anxiety most days that your mindfulness and calm compassionate manner sounds wonderful. Has this always been your general approach to life?

@Bex953172 I had to chuckle at the clean laundry story. My kids used to not put theirs away either. I did the same as @Snowflake1968 and they had to start doing their own when they turned about 12 or 13. I used to find their folded clothes in the laundry because they'd throw it in the dirty laundry with the rest of the…

This one too! Thanks again for sharing! I'm not much of a cook but since I'm trying to get away from processed food as much as possible, I'm trying to learn. :)

OMG, this sounds absolutely delicious and looks easy enough even for me! Thanks for sharing!

1. My goal for this month (This July I will...") : Take my vitamins & medications every day on time. 2. The small actions I’ll be taking to accomplish this goal: I will put them in a cup the night before and set them by the coffeemaker. 3. The trigger or cue to remember to do my habit: When I set up the coffeemaker at…

Happy Saturday! Thanks for the welcome and encouragement @TerriRichardson112 and @Michaela_LaGata! Feels good to be forming routine and habits again. I’ve felt so discombobulated since retiring! 1. My goal for this month (This July I will...") : Take my vitamins & medications every day on time. 2. The small actions I’ll be…

Hi ladies! I hope you don't mind if I jump in. My name is Tracie. I'm 63 years old and live in Wisconsin. I've participated in this thread randomly through the years but it's been awhile. I'm no longer working since losing my job to the Covid furloughs back in 2020, and here I am 3 years later still trying to figure out my…

Hi everyone! It's been awhile since I've checked in but it's so nice to see this group is still going! I hope you are all doing well! I know it's the middle of the month already, but I do have health habits/health issues I'm trying to address so I'm going to jump in. I want to start with tiny things and build on them…

@Snowflake1968 How nice that Michaela went to ceramics with you! Her bank is cute…love her color choices. My grands are all getting to an age they don’t want to hang out with me anymore….although the older ones are starting to stop in when they’re out and about more lately so that’s nice. Hope everyone’s having a good day!…

I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble with your back! I’ve been MIA for a bit…did you hurt yourself or do you have back issues? I have arthritis in many joints and it’s miserable especially when it rains. Hope you feel better soon! 💞 I think it’s adorable that your grandson came early with his own cereal just so he could…

@Bex953172 Good for you! Glad the neighbor dramacsettled down. That can be quite awkward! I’ve never lifted weights, and I’m pretty sure I’d hurt myself trying! Lol. But I think it’s great you two are doing it together! Woo Hoo for being able to notice a difference already!!! Go Bex! 😋

Hi there! I forgot to come back and update my progress yesterday. I guess it'll take me a few weeks to get back into the habit of logging into MFP. I don't use my laptop much and I don't like trying to type on my iPad. As a matter of fact, I just had a big long update and the whole thing disappeared on me suddenly, so here…

I hope you are able to pinpoint the triggers and get to feeling better! Burn out and stress don’t help either. I know what it feels like to feel like you’re getting knocked back down every time you try to get up. I seem to be diagnosed with something new every time I figure something else out. It’s depressing, but like the…

@cschmitz110515 You did the Bellin Run! All 10k’s of it! Yay You!!!! 💥 I thought of you that morning and wondered if you did it this year. How are you finding retirement? Are you enjoying it? Did you feel a bit out of sorts at first or did you adjust quickly? I think I would’ve adjusted quicker if I had retired by my…

Hi everyone! I hope you’re all having a wonderful day and enjoying summer! I have a terrible habit of allowing life to overwhelm me and then getting depressed and eating my emotions & isolating. It’s time to pick myself up, brush off my knees and get back to it! I love seeing all the familiar friends on here…feels like…

Hi JFT friends! Phew! I just got done reading past posts from the middle of May to today, and there has been a lot of stuff going on. I am sure I won’t remember everything, but want to try to comment on a few things. @clicketykeys An Opera?! Oh my! That is so cool! Congratulations! I would think that must have been one for…

This sounds delicious AND healthy! Thanks for sharing! I’m going to try making it this week…I had made a commitment to myself to make a new plant-based recipe this week but hadn’t picked one yet. I don’t have any zucchini in the house but picked up a spaghetti squash yesterday. Do you think that would work in this recipe…

Just for Today* 24H Plan & Assess :) * WATER * Close activity rings * GD's Honor Society Awards ceremony * Home Care & Ta-Da's * Pick up Rx today * Early to bed.

OMG! I could have written this myself. My brain NEVER stops! I had the sleep study done also...they told me my brain is busy all night long and when it should be in a REM getting deep sleep, it's busy jumping all over the place. I can't seem to stay on task. I have trouble remembering things, sometimes can't even pay…

Good morning! Hope everyone is having a nice week. Cold and rainy day here today so not feeling real motivated. @pridesabtch Love the pic of your daughter. The girls look so cute! @littleblackskirt Hope you are able to clean your favorite pot! I have wrecked so many of my favorite pots and pans like that. @Bex953172 I have…

Good morning everyone! Not feeling great today, so keeping it short. Have a good one! Just for Today* 24H Plan & Assess * WATER * Close activity rings * Mom's for AQ video * Home Care & Ta-Da's * Call in Rx refills * Early to bed.

@teigansdad Your vacation sounds wonderful! I wouldn’t have counted calories at an All Inclusive either…the hike you want on sounds brutal! I love that Teigan named all the cats! LOL @snowflake1968 That’s a great idea, actually. I’ve lived in this city for over 30 years and never made any actual friends that I hang out…

@Snowflake1968 Wow! Your grands are getting so big! It just shows how long we've been friends on here. LOL I'm sorry the job is draining. I hope a new one comes along really soon for you! I've never done ceramics but was actually thinking just the other day that I should look into lessons on that or pottery. I think that…
