Donna – ugh for a new problem, yay for a solution to an existing problem?

I talked to my therapist and she agrees, yay for boundaries. It’s an issue with me, so it’s progress.

Did 3 thank you notes and mailed 2…getting stamp for other one tomorrow. This was one of my favorite things to do Thanks!!

I dont do coffee but I had a lovely cup of tea at my local Panera and just sat and watched people walk by!

Im late as usual but for 2 reasons this time! One of them being that this was really hard for me. But I finally came up with 2 things! Not sure if I will get to do them but I am going to tru!!

Thank you note written and ready to be mailed tomorrow!!! 🙂

My sister is my hero. And she gave me support today right before I read the challenge task. She’s good like that…

Note (email) sent to one of my biggest supporters!! My mother-in-law!!! I should have also sent one to @nikki-massie as she is always there to support us, and this group has given me for the first time the courage to express myself without feeling I am being judged all the time and afraid to speak up without always feeling I am inadequate. This is…[Read more]

Thank you messages sent to my 2 best supporters

I had a shake for breakfast today and things have gone much better. I’ve had a lot more energy today. Lunch was a shrimp cocktail and dinner (presented to me hot and cut up by my hubby), was grilled chicken and green beans. I’m now impatiently waiting for my 30 minutes to pass because I am SO thirsty! It’s still over 100 degrees out and we’re…[Read more]

It does? Well darn it. I must not be an adult then. 😁

I’m all signed up!! 😊

Thank you for your ideas!!! I think I may have stopped being quite as mindful when eating. I also think that lately I have been busier than before (more active), so only stop long enough just to get some nourishment in because I am losing energy and just “want to get it over with” so I can continue with what I was doing.

Yes @nikki-massie, I have an Android phone. That would be great!!! Thanks!!!

Best I could do with this one was since it was the only day without rain, I sat on my back deck with my morning coffee and enjoyed the peaceful sounds of nature.

Since a lot of the fun things had been planned before the challenge, it was a little difficult to plan any more (especially with my physical limitations). We have 3 vacations planned (Florida August, North Carolina October, and New Orleans December). I have already gone to lunch with a classmate of mine that I hadn’t seen since grade school (over…[Read more]

With all the rain we’ve been having this week, my knee has been on the sore side (dampness, chilly). I didn’t get any structured exercises in (what I mean is recumbent bike, leg exercises), but did quite a bit of walking and housework so I have been active. I needed to adjust dinners a little since my husband will be home tonight (he originally…[Read more]
