I slept 8 hours last night, which I haven’t done in weeks – clearly I needed It!

I have an addendum to my earlier post. The pick up has a blown head gasket (very bad news), a tow truck has been called. All the moving boxes have been loaded into my husband’s truck and they (and my son) have been delivered to the new home. Luckily, my DIL was there unpacking what she had brought in her car so my son has a way back to Killeen…[Read more]

I always take my vitamins every day, part of my routine. Usually good at meal planning, but it could be better. Water……let’s not go there!!!

No nap today, although I felt like I could use one. I should be heading to bed very soon.

Got myself distracted in watching the prime day deals and never got around to doing anything that I should have. I’m beating myself up over this, but I know that isn’t going to help anything. Anyway, I didn’t complete today’s challenge.

Its early bedtime for me tonight.  going in a few minutes.  getting my workout cloths ready then shower then hit the sack.   Night all!

I tried to take a nap today. Twice. And someone called me both times. So I decided that I was going to go to bed early. And the truck that my son borrowed from his father in law to move broke down on the interstate. So my husband has gone to help my son and I’m on stand by incase they need me to bring more tools, etc, out to them. I don’t think…[Read more]

It’s a special day/week for many, I guess. Today is my wedding anniversary!  We’re both working (opposite shifts), so going to bed early is no problem at all.

Nik, I have a hard time powering my brain down, which is why I do sudoku and listen to music – it helps me stop thinking about all the things I need to do.

Happy 40th! (I spent mine having WLS)

It’s a great idea to be in the moment rather than to post about the moment. Enjoy your time with your bestie and treating yourself right!

OMG, this is perfect. I just spent 3 hours out in the plant, with no fans and it’s hot and humid (and I was “observing” more than working) and I felt like crap before I even started. I could easily take a long nap. I was considering going home for a shower (I feel like I smell, which is pretty sad for just 3 hours in the morning) and then working…[Read more]

Thanks for this item on the list. Maybe it should have been before the affirmations, so we could use it for the positive things?

This challenge is hard for me. Especially since I have to turn off my sarcastic wit to do it. (and sarcasm and wit are high on my list of attributes, but it’s easy to hide behind self-deprecating humor and this isn’t…[Read more]

Getting at least 8k steps a day, meal planning and food logging are all pretty automatic for me. Vitamins are great on weekdays when I have a normal schedule. But water is always a struggle.

Today was hectic – I almost didn’t log in to check the challenge. But glad I did – this was a good one.

My list has 5 things on it and even those were hard to put down on paper.  Nagative comes a lot easier to me.

Okay so no derby practice but a momma/daughter evening……

I’m learning tonight with her that I’m a good mom.  I know I have challenges with all 4 of the s in the house but being present & realizing a neurotypical teen girl can be fun. I’m able, tonight, to talk with her about her day, relate to a wider view & appreciate having watched a…[Read more]

I did this… and may add to it over time.  I find it hard to look at and recognize the good about myself!

Monday’s during the summer are our “adventure” days as hubs is off work, kids are free & we can relax.  During the school year, Monday’s are the day that I set up our weekly tasks/appointments & get our weekly dinners planned.

I’ll work on this while kid is at practice; it will distract me.
