  • JFT 1.) Recommit to coming here each day to post & support others. 2.) Not tell myself I am going to fail 3.) Weed around my flower bed tonight 4.) Take dog for walk after work 5.) Use up 2 items out of cupboard to start getting rid of too much food in pantry. I tend to over buy & then do not know what is in there.
  • Happy Monday, Sam officially is done with 8th grade, off to high school next year. I am not sure if I should cry or be happy. :'( We had an end of school party at our house Friday night for his class. Small school; he has 14 in his class. We had a movie night with lots of snacks and fun. Was able to get the boat out on the…
  • This is great, you are an awesome writer. I totally do that, I call myself the "fat girl", I guess I never realized how that is holding me back. Never made my walk tonight, ended up in a huge family disagreement. Stressful, aweful & draining. We ended on a better note. I think meditation needs to become a goal.
  • That is a true sign of a great parent!!! It will be way better enjoying with your loved ones than it would be alone. I am so jealous, Italy is on my bucket list. I need to start planning to make that happen!
  • I have been lost too! I am trying to get it together but struggling. I have come to the conclusion work takes up too much of my time. hahahahaha. I did get both of my gardens planted over the weekend and tons of yard work done. Maybe I need to focus on the things I have accomplished rather than the things I have not. Goals…

  • 3furballs- it sounds like you are doing better but just try to brush off the doctors scale.

  • I have some problems with mine too. when I run it says I run further than I do and a faster pace, when I walk it sometimes says I went less than I did. I noticed if I am chopping veggies it thinks I am stepping:( For the most part it is okay but I wish it was more accurate. If I am pushing a shopping cart it does not…

  • Here is the picture of the birds eggs that were laid in the birdhouse my son built. We will get a picture after they hatch. I am pretty sure they are purple orioles! Had a great mother's day.

  • You are in my thought Vicky!!! I hope you are doing better:)
  • Curious- yes, I feed the orioles jelly & oranges. I bought a new feeder for them last year. We have a pair of purple orioles right now & they laid eggs in one of our birdhouses.
