@shanaber - that is sad about Hilde and I'm sure it is stressful for you. The bathroom need is a major pain, I have no advice since I get it too. @elise4270 - Yes the school will keep you busy. That sounds painful to play Cello with shoulder pain! No major drama at school today. Just super busy. I got take away Indian…

It's been such a busy week, haven't had time to check in. Woke up at 4am and read everything here but now I don't quite remember it all. Not sure school will get better. We are doing so much to prepare with class sizes, lunches, movement between classes, just everything. At least I am not prepping for classes. I worked…

@quilteryoyo - adorable pics! @elise4270 - LOL that's an interesting keto diet! Nothing interesting salad ideas. I make the same thing all the time, other than adding different vegs to it. @RunsOnEspresso - Ahhh I see! Well I signed up! Hopefully it goes to a good cause! Just got a text from principal that we are closing…

Are we doing the ScoobyRun? Looks good - I'll sign up and use @RunsOnEspresso coupon code. I hope the storm/hurricane will just stay a little bit west, away from the coast. The Realtor said that it shouldn't get any thing blown on windows since it's the 9th floor. Yikes! The funny thing is that little section of the east…

Wow! You all have been busy! I read through but don't have time to say much. I'm very busy with school work and just no time to check in. Mostly scheduling changes, but also prepping for teachers to get back, and figuring out how to identify the kids who are home, moving schedules around... it's all so crazy! This is one…
-
@bearly63 - amazing ride!!! Love the collage you made! Yes, I'm keeping the bunk beds because Ella and granddaughter #2 who will be here end of Sept can use them eventually! @shanaber - We won't own the condo until 9/4 assuming all goes well with closing. IDK if he will go back or not. They were just called mini cucumbers.…
-
@elise4270 - I will ask my DH who is a financial advisor and may know companies. But I think @RunsOnEspresso is probably right - they all will drag their feet. DH had stomach issues after lunch yesterday (he thinks because he ate too much!) so he wasn't up for Indian leftover dinner. I could have eaten mine anyway but…
-
Download the RunBet app. He will see several challenges there. The one I'm doing starts tomorrow so it's at the top. Yeah, Garmin is really having trouble. I just rode Pellie and Garmin won't connect to the app at all. What I'm going to do is turn on Strava when I run and my Garmin watch. RunBet may have to take some other…
-
@elise4270 / @quilteryoyo -- I hope he comes to pick up the stuff too! DH just told me that he noticed some of the clothes had tags on them in the closet. If he doesn't come to clean it out, I guess if we find something sentimental we could save it. Though it can be difficult to tell what's sentimental! We've only spoke…
-
One more thing -- I think I'm going to join a Runbet. I've never done it but DD did it when she was training for the Big Sur Marathon a few years ago. I never joined a challenge because I was always running way more than the challenges. But since Pellie came to live at my house, my runs are way down. It is 6 weeks of 4…
-
@elise4270 - crazy is in HI! What the heck? I thought they still had the quarantine if you go there. Glad that the monument set works and that they have security. I can't fathom someone breaking in for cremains. @RunsOnEspresso - well that is a bummer about the Mexican being disappointing. We had Indian last night and…
-
@quilteryoyo - nice job on the healthier breakfast! Thanks! We are excited. Though I still can't believe we did it, especially during this crazy time. @bearly63 - you can have top bunk! Hey a MFP Runners who need nutritional help week get-away in Daytona! I fear we wouldn't be very nutritional though. Maybe next summer!…
-
@RunsOnEspresso and @shanaber - yes it does look staged! I don't know if they rented it out but this building has a one month minimum rental. We looked at buildings that had one or two week rentals and they were so beat up. This one looks like it has hardly been used at all. Yes, I was thinking that about the spin bike in…
-
@RunsOnEspresso -wow the most colorful meals! Love it! @shanaber - yes it's awful how bad CA, TX and FL are doing. @avidkeo - ugh on the pain. Yes, we would all do the same thing! Forgot what else I was going to say. The condo contract is signed! I cannot believe we are buying this! In these times! Yikes. But DH is a…
-
@RunsOnEspresso - you made me laugh with your explanation of the 2.5 min biking! When I first joined my cycling club I thought I was so fit that I'd have no trouble at all. After all I ran half marathons! Well... the first Saturday I didn't even make it to the 3 mile spot before I was dropped. It was a very cold day for…
-
@quilteryoyo - Glad you took the time for you and John. That is important. @elise4270 - that is so true about your DD. But I'm glad she wanted new dresses. @RunsOnEspresso - cool on the bike! I love the Peloton app! Florida continues to impress with the COVID #s. Scary. Teachers keep quitting and the schedule keeps…
-
@RunsOnEspresso - beautiful plate of food! I started to say beautiful plate and then though, oh, it sounds like I like your dishes. They are nice too. @shanaber - Vista would be difficult to get much working these days. Frustrating! I always think I can get around stuff too and keep trying "just one more thing" and…
-
@elise4270 - Pot pie sounds hard to make to me! Hope it is delicious! Condo shopping was fun and our Realtor was very safe. Gloves, mask and lots of wipes! We are probably going to make an offer on one in Daytona Beach Shores; close to Wilbur to the Sea so not in the craziness of Daytona Beach. The one we like the best has…
-
Yesterday the school informed me are going to do block scheduling instead of the regular way we’ve done it. This limits kids passing in the hall. Causes me lots of changes so I’ve worked tons since Friday morning. Didn’t have time to catch up. Florida is number one. Not that I’m proud of that. Food is good. Did two twenty…
-
@elise4270 - hope you are feeling okay. I have same problem remembering pills. I have a piece of paper where I write down the exact moment I take it. I also have the little seven day pill container by my bed for thyroid which I take in the middle of the night when I get up to use bathroom. I always kept lists of when I…
-
@shanaber - oh wow, that's interesting about the La Mer! I will look. Though I have a lot right now. Glad you felt better and you even ran some. What do you mean by NP said it was okay? Off topic: Normal long busy working day. Awaiting Orange County FL to delay the opening of schools, PLEASE! We follow what they do.…
-
@elise4270 - we both liked the cauliflower pizza! I think someone on here, maybe you, had mentioned it and that's why I had it in the freezer since March. I think what you are going through is normal grieving. It's got to hurt, it's part of it. As @rheddmobile said, you did the best with what you had. There is so much…
-
@shanaber - wow, that PM story is just scary! I'm so glad it is better now and that they apologized. My gosh. Tell us what DD says about that! Happy anniversary! My 35th is Dec 24th! @elise4270 - and other book discussers. The e-books drive me insane! Our school went to e-books about 5 years ago or so and I think they are…
-
@shanaber - I cracked up at Hobbes! He was determined not to do that one high step thing. So funny. Yes, the long-term effect of COVID is scary. It just seems like there is no good solution. Can’t believe our country right now. @elise4270 - that is a great idea about a suicide app. I don’t know if there is one. Last year…
-
@elise4270 - monument is really nice. I didn't know they could do them so fancy. @RunsOnEspresso - I have heard AZ has a hard time getting teachers and now 1/5 is thinking of not going back. And they probably won't tell them until the end. The poor schedulers like me will be busy the night before school opens moving…
-
@RunsOnEspresso - thanks for the tip on Garmin. I'll try it. For now I have it charging at an angle on my brush and it charges but it's annoying. I'm with you on the racing or any sports. @quilteryoyo - YUM! @shanaber - Sorry you feel weird. And the weight and muscle. UGH! You will be back though. Time flies and though it…
-
@bearly63. Congratulations to you and DD!!! That’s great news! @elise4270. Feel so bad for your DD and you watching her go through it with your own grief and post surgery. Not sure I could do cold tacos! Ha! I’m not much of a left over eater unless it is Chinese or Indian. Thank goodness DH will eat anything. Strength…
-
@elise4270 - you are making sense. Honestly when I post my food and exercise I always think, is this really important? Knowing what you are going through I'm sure it all sounds so trivial. But I like to hear from you and am thinking of you quite a bit. @shanaber - so sorry about Gatsby. I'm sure you do want to fly up…
-
@bearly63 - hope her scores are good! It's amazing how much we stress for our kids even when they are grown up. I hate the tiny calorie burn strength training provides but I really like the results. I like those little daily calendars where you pull off the sheets each day. For a few years I had the "Younger Next Year"…
-
I weigh everyday. But I know some people think that is not a good idea. Strength training yesterday and then Peloton today. May run outside tomorrow if I can get up early enough. I ran at 4:30 am for years but this pandemic sort of messed that up and now I can’t seem to get up early because I stay up too late! We had tons…
