Buzz - Your granddaughter's post is such a special tribute. So sweet. Phoebe - ( from you post: "I think it's time I faced this issue. I've been trying to downsize, paperwork and general 'stuff'. It seems like I'm pulling from the bottom of a pile that just gets bigger.") We have been downsizing/organizing for some time…

Buzz - So sorry. Words seem inadequate Sending you hugs. Marcella

Completed my "at home" office work! Yippee! Yesterday's eating was better. So, here's for working at this to be the day I get completely back on task. Will just keep trying till I get there.

Ditto my day again. BUT--- Going old school for awhile. See if that helps. I put together a notebook yesterday. (ebook "My Weight Loss Success Plan" - I have printed it and put it in a notebook with cute little tabs. I also printed a form that I've used in the past to write down what I eat during the day instead of…

Marie - Sorry to hear your blood sugar is so high. Hopefully, it will be back down soon. Please take care. Anne - Loved the doggy sweater. I'm sure the next one will look nice too. Jilly will probably be a bit more thrilled with the sweater when it gets cold outside this winter. Phoebe - I'm curious to hear how the rug…

Yesterday did not go as I hoped. Today, I will choose to make excellent choices. o:)

My cat woke me up this morning meowing for attention. I finally got up and now that I'm awake, she has curled up and gone back to sleep. I'm thinking maybe I'll wait a little bit and then go get real close to her and start meowing loudly at her! >:) Marcella

Just for today, I will complete my office work, eat no processed foods and drink no wine. (Even if my 24 year old son decides to be rude for no apparent reason.) Today, I will be "back on track" and making healthy moment by moment choices. B)

Marie - Glad you're doing better. Take care! Buzz - Hope you get everything worked out with your computer and internet connection. That can be incredibly frustrating. The hubby and I are watching the Falcon's game, hoping they hang on against the Chargers. Jim (the hubby) has the week off and we're planning to spending the…

Exactly. This past week, I just focused on getting through the week and was trying to get back to normal (whatever that is). The good news was that, even though I didn't log or even check in with MFP all week, I was only up 0.2 pounds. I'll take it. I did get a ton a things done that needed doing and I did get back into a…

Phoebe - Drive carefully. Stay safe. Buzz - Your graphic made me smile. Thank you. Lin - Me too with the Saturday thing. It's my day to enjoy quietly. I've learned that works well for me to set it aside and just enjoy. I don't like going out or forcing myself to do anything too heavy duty. I like that. Anne - I loved the…

Thank you.

Lin - Love the round puzzle. Phoebe - Love the piece of art you won in the auction. It's beautiful. This week is going better now. Amazing how much it helps to get some sleep and eat nutritious food. It's also been helpful to spend some quiet time contemplating life a bit. I guess I get so caught up in getting through the…

This week has gone better. I've eaten better, slept better and been more active. Things look a lot better today than they did a week ago. The death in the family was actually my brother. It's been a reflective week and certainly a reminder to make time count. This week has been about assessing, reassessing and making sure…

Thank you to everyone for your condolences and well wishes. It was not an enjoyable trip. I was tired and, to stay awake while driving, I munched all the way there and all the way back. I returned home late Saturday and slept and rested until this morning. Now that I am back, I feel the need to change up my routines a bit.…

Lin, Happy Birthday! Marcella

It will be interesting to see what my weight is Monday morning. There was a death in my family so I had an unexpected trip to Florida. I didn't sleep well and was a bit out of sorts, so driving was difficult. My motto when driving tired/sleepy is that it's better to munch on whatever will help me stay awake and arrive…
