After a long day at a work “retreat”  I am going to go to bed VERY early (8pm) and watch some TV … catch up on my DVR and try to get some much needed sleep tonight

It’s been a crazy stressful few days.  I asked my husband for help, which I don’t usually do for this kind of stuff, and then I took my dogs to daycare and vegged in solitude for a couple of hours. {{big exhale}}

An hour, eh?

i have slipped out of a community theatre showing of Fiddler on the Roof due to a NASTY sinus infection commingling with the special needs adult kid being “forced” into resigning from her job ($3 ain’t work h stealing regardless how badly you wanted whatever)

i may go find liquid adult medicine (margaritas ?)

@nikki-massie  – I hope the August challenge isn’t a daily report in. I get confused about doing a daily check in here and a daily check in for the challenge. It seems duplication (I realize not everyone is doing the challenge).

Yippee! I’m getting my hair done tonight. treating myself and meeting the challenge all at the same time 🙂

Hey @nikki-massie, do you need this picture today?!? Hugs!!!

I’m excited about this!

My treat for today was a nap! After keeping my 2 year old grandson yesterday, I needed one. So, apparently, did my dog, who joined me at some point! 😁

Well, I think that I have figured out what was causing me to be so queasy all the time and my digestive uproar. Inulin. I know that I’m sensitive (very) to it. So, in my efforts to figure out what’s been going on, I have been reading every ingredient label of everything that goes into my mouth. Up to and including my tea bags! And there, in the…[Read more]

Dinners were pretty much on target, but breakfasts and lunches well I could have (should have) chosen better choices most days.

Never did much with structured PT exercises and my recumbent bike, however I did walk quite a bit and also did some heavy duty house cleaning a couple of days which meant I got quite a bit of activity this week.

I finally got around this morning to making the Blueberry Cheesecake Protein Bread that I was supposed to do last week (see my update under Recipes Forum). So I had some for breakfast.

Other than that, food wise, not sure yet for rest of today.

I need to run a couple errands this afternoon and unsure about the rest of the day. I’m feeling a…[Read more]

@nikki-massie I will be thinking of you today and sending you lots of hugs!!!

So I finally got around to making this bread today. I did make a couple of modifications, but thought it still was delicious.

Cream cheese and I don’t always agree, so I substituted with part skim ricotta cheese (read somewhere this is a good substitute). Used Sola as sweetener and ground rolled oats (oat flour) instead of whole wheat pastry…[Read more]

Check. Now can someone help me with all the legit emails I still need to respond to??!

yay! always a good task. I enjoyed this. Too many emails that need to go away…

Got rid of a few today.

I did not do this today … I think it is a good activity but really didn’t feel like going through them today … oh well.

Done!!!  I did this not too long ago but still had ones that either didn’t take me off their list or new ones that I needed to unsubscribe to.  I love taking the time to do this!!! 🙂

My body is sore, not looking forward to a tilt table or cardiac MRI stress test. (Even having the dogs on the bed sometimes is more than I can do BUT their my pupper-ronis & I gots to love them)

i see the rheumatologist tomorrow & need to call my gyn re a hysterectomy for AFTER YWM17.

My body is tired…..   thinking my newest “illness” a…[Read more]

I spent my 2-3 hour tub time reading for fun & i’ve missed that.
