I thought you said these weren’t going to be crazy hard?!?!  No way I’ll make 72 today, but will try for 30. 4+ hours in a plane this evening…

I’m doing my best to be positive today. As my morning started out really crappy, I’ve had a few struggles, but I’m getting there! I’m going to get myself out and away from the house today, even if it’s a short trip. When I’m struggling, I have a tendency to isolate myself in the house with all the blinds closed. So, blinds are opened up and once I…[Read more]

I did! I love mine! I haven’t used the plate yet, but have used the bowl a couple of times.

Stress? Did someone say stress? My husband has to have another MRI. This one on his hip. His leg keeps going numb. All of this has gone on so long that I’m having problems making myself eat and when I do eat, my tendency is to just grab a protein shake or bar so I don’t have to think about what to fix to eat. That’s pretty much how my day went.…[Read more]

I have a visual of you running through the parking lot – lol!

I’m with you on stress. I have to be my corporate alter ego this week, a plus my bulldog children got a bad report card at the kennel. Ugh.

I really liked this challenge, even on the days it made me uncomfortable! I’m planning on continuing journaling. I think that I will start with Sara’s 30 day gratitude challenge, using each day as the prompt. Things aren’t going well here with my husband’s health and I think that I could use the reminder of all the good things that I have to be…[Read more]

Traveling to Chicago today.  Bfast was eggs at home, lunch will be a veggie snack pack and cheese snack pack from Hudson News. I walked 6k steps in the terminal before boarding, so off to a decent start!

I’ve started this. I can’t say that I’ve finished as I’ve set aside pages in my journal for ongoing lists that I will add to as I think of more things.

All done.

<p style=”text-align: left;”>I’m assuming that you got my sign-up for this. I acknowledged signing up on the forum page.</p>

All done for today!

Have you tried any of the protein waters?  That may be a way to get a little bit of nutrition while you’re recovering.  Best of luck!

Happy Anniversary!

I built a raised bed and planted some new veggies this spring and am LOVING them.  The red romaine lettuce and Swiss chard are my favorites so far.  Tomatoes and cucumbers haven’t arrived yet.

I’m missing the “one simple thing” concept.  Was it part of a journal prompt?

I love the idea of arriving just in the nick of time for a flight, but I am just too paranoid about being late!  So I typically get there with plenty of time and spend at least 30 minutes walking the terminal.

Once I get there, I’ll be with my coworkers from 7 am to 10 pm, so all the meals will be provided except any mini-meals/snacks that I…[Read more]

What are you going to plant? I’d love to have a veggie garden. Unfortunately, between the birds, the colony of rabbits and my veggie loving dog, it’s pretty much a no go here!
