@CupcakeCrusoe WOOHOO! Reaching the 170's is awesome! I know how hard you've been working to get there. Great persistence and determination!! Thank you for your service at the polling place tomorrow. It will be a long day and I hope for only pleasant people and smiling faces to show up. We usually vote in person but were…

It's 8:15 PM and I'm finally getting around to doing my computer work. I had an early lunch with a friend and we chatted for 2 hours. Then some shopping and when I got home my son was here visiting so that was a surprise treat. My son-in-law is a college asst. coach from Texas and his first game was on ESPN+ at 5 so I had…

I decided to make checking in here part of my daily computer routine...read the news, check emails, do a French lesson and now ... myfitness pal. It all takes about an hour especially on those really hard French days. Today I got a 64%! Getting 100% seems to be a part of the past! So far today I've checked off 4 boxes.…

I lost track of time and missed logging Monday’s weigh in. Can’t believe we’re 1/3 of the way through May! SO much time spent at track meets, softball games, karate practice, and concerts this month. Throw in a couple birthdays and viola! there goes the time! Loving it all though and getting lots of vitamin D ☀️ Feeling…

@KeriA Glad to hear from you! You might not remember me because I’m here and gone, then back again and don’t post much, but I remember you. I’m looking forward to hearing how you like retirement in May. It’s an adjustment, but has been awesome for me. It’s a great time to set some goals without all the stress that comes…

Well, this is embarrassing! I said I would going to do day 12 pushups before going to bed last night and 5 minutes later I totally forgot. And here it is, 11:25 pm and I still haven’t done today’s😖. I was away from home both days…no excuse! So the streak will undergo a reset… Day 1 (64 days, I think). 11:30 ✅ and now it’s…

I just realized I lost a day and I’m farther along in my streak than I thought. So… Day 11✅ Day 12 … not yet but will do 11 wall pushups before going to bed. I’m having trouble making this an after shower habit. Maybe a sticky note on my mirror would help me remember 🤔

Day 8 pushups…did them first thing yesterday when I got up and discovered my body needs a little more warm up time. My shoulder is a little sore and not in a good way. I took 1 Advil and it feel fine now. Day 9 pushups… did them right after my shower. I think that might be a good time to get them done. Sometimes linking a…

@Velveta here is your quote to me… @nebsip - Don't over think it. You've got this! Keep up the great progress. 👍 .[/quote] Your comment has me laughing out loud! Because when I was learning to etch sayings on metal cups, the first one I made was for me. It said “hold on, let me overthink this!” So true!🤣

@CupcakeCrusoe I love everything about your post! Special yum to that breakfast plate 😋 and your knitting is beautiful! Birthday parties are the best, especially the fancy ones. Sounds like a fun family. Enjoy 😊 Day 7. Got up and did wall pushups immediately because I knew I’d be at my grandson’s martial arts competition…

Day 6. Switched from the wall to the steps for push ups to make it more challenging. Used 3rd step up today. Food macros came out on target and was under calorie burn 🔥

Other accomplishments today…a silver sneakers YouTube work out, outside time walking, a little weeding, enjoying the perfect 70’s day 😊 Almost finished with quilting my granddaughter’s quilt. 🤞 maybe tomorrow I’ll be able to assemble…

Day 4 wall pushups 👍 Posture exercises 👍 Below calorie burn 🔥 I almost forgot my exercises yesterday. 11 PM and I was like, dang! But I did them anyway because I want to keep my streak going. I got my hair cut in the afternoon and when leaving town to go home I drove right on by DQ and A and W without stopping. I had to…
