Today for ME, I spent my gift card from last night on clothes for YWM2017, window shopped at the local outlet mall (3+ hours on my feet, no wonder I crashed earlier & am know “drowsy”)

i had fun looking at stuff for the teen & MYSELF.  I even tried on sleeveless dresses; didn’t buy one but sent selfies to hubby

I’m driving hubby crazy with our “matching”. So easy figuring mine out but his?

Yesterday was an Interesting day!  Daycamp closed early due to flooded entrances, paths & bridges. Wee one started her Taco Bell job & I went to a bra focus group.

Not much in exercise as my abdomen has been a mess since Tues pt (who knew abdomens needed open to help with deaftist posture?) & the weather has been me majorly hiding in my tub.…[Read more]

What is tabata?

I’ve always had a few irrational fears, some I’m even talking about in therapy; what if I failed in setting my kid up to succeed with supports? I have a negative Nelly train that will happily pull out my past as an example; today, my largest fears are health related & im so tired.

My goofy fear is down escalators; I don’t know where I got the…[Read more]

Naps are part of my everyday care care routine & im really trying the tub/early bed thing. I succeeded this night, mainly due to day camp week & exhausted.

I get my liquids in but not always food. Trying to learn a mechanical eating schedule & rebelling big time.

I did a whole lot of sitting around once I finally got home from work. Work is going to happen this weekend, too 🙁 but i determined that bringing it home but ignoring it for tonight made the most sense. I love this day of the challenge. And that it’s on Friday!

Sat outside this morning and drank coffee and just enjoyed the pool and nature.  Loved listening to the birds and watching my hummingbird.  Then tonight I went swimming after dark.  Usually don’t do this and want to every night so it was enjoyed very much.  Spent more than an hour doing what I want to do!!! 🙂

Perfect task for a Friday!  I spent an hour watching one of my favorite shows and shopping for shoes online just for fun.

I spent this evening working on something for my Your Weight Matters Convention costume.  I am very excited about it.  Lots of fun.

Two hour nap this afternoon at my husband’s urging. Today is my son’s big move in day. He and my DIL were up all night packing, getting ready for the movers today. We figure there will be a “please, please PLEASE come get Gabe out of our hair for just a little while!” phone call sometime tomorrow.

Today has been a somewhat crappy day and I can’t even tell you why. I woke up tired, I haven’t wanted to eat and I haven’t come close to getting my fluids in.

I did get my steps in, cuz that’s just what I do.

Breakfast/Lunch… part of a vanilla premier protein shake used as creamer in my coffee.

Dinner… leftovers

Early bedtime (if I didn’t…[Read more]

Spent an hour reading a book … relaxing … ahhhhh …. SIL is moving in tonight so here we go ….

Not in the cards for me today..  moving in day for my daughter and 3 munchkins.  So very tired and it’s only 2:10!!

Welll, I didn’t buy flowers, but I did acquire 2 plants from my daughters house!

I spent the morning building Leggos and puzzles with my granddaughter. Best mornung ever!!

On plan for the week, both food and exercise-wise. I’m having some knee issues, so cut back on walking and doing more intense weight lifting and tabata instead. And still trying to get in 64+ oz. of water a day!

So I’ve discovered recently that I have an irrational fear about traveling in foreign countries. Yes, I’ve done it, but always with responsible, trustworthy adults who spoke the native language! Thoughts of going alone (or with my husband) conjure up images of “Locked Up Abroad”.

BUT…I recently spent a long weekend in Canada and I’m…[Read more]

I picked a beautiful dark purple hydrangea for my desk. Love it!
