If you are waiting on weight loss to love and accept your body, I hate to break it to you...but true love and acceptance should be unconditional. Your body doesn't need to look like or do anything specifically to be loved, accepted, appreciated or deemed worthy. (Some words from a Connect Post.)

Happy Halloween! Final weigh in:

Good morning all. Enjoyed my day yesterday even tho it doesn't seem much was accomplished, at least on the home front. I have a list today but see if football or more crafting takes priority! Was looking back over my AF days, I keep rechecking my numbers as I'm trying to get a reality grip on what I've been up too. Annie Grace is making me look a bit deeper. I always look up what day of the year it is, by the way, 79 days left of the year!! When I use yesterdays number and subtract my AF days it shows I've drank on 36 days this year. When I see that it feels much better than what my head thinks. That's like a month, which often would be times 9 by this time of year if drinking everyday. I need to keep my focus on the positive days and not get caught up on the detour days. It's hard to do. Like with food, when I think I've blown it, when I see the overall week or calories vs points, I usually stay pretty consistent and do alright. Here's to keeping the positive mind set going til the end of the year and into 2025. It's sunny and nice out currently but they are talking about rain coming in later. I will get myself out early before that happens, need to get more steps today. We watched the exciting DUcks game last night, I had to go upstairs at the last 5 minutes, couldn't stand the thought of them blowing it at the last chance after all the antics of the game and not taking extra points when they were available. Even DH said they didn't deserve to win after the Rude behavior of one of the players who spit at an opposing team mate. I hope they sit him for next week or at least maybe his mom or dad will come unglued on him. Just so uncalled for and so beneath the standards of the team. Dumb. I just went over to feed the cat, Velvet . She's so funny, just wants belly rubs and has the tiniest little meow. She's totally spoiled with her Sheba cat cans, which she doesn't even eat. I usually just scrape out the day before's food and put new food in her cute little china bowls. She'll be glad when her people come home today. Of course after yesterday's class I want to go out and buy some new cricut toys, but will wait and see. At least Hobby Lobby is closed today so that will curtail some spending. The girls from the class said they like their Vinyl and products for the cricut the best and better price. I figure I haven't bought myself any fun Birthday present yet so see what happens. Of course we are going to drop a huge $$ amount on getting new shingle siding put on the dormers and back of the house so can't go too crazy. Better get my FB off the charger and go get some breakfast. Enjoy your day all. Jan

Cindy. Glad you can get in earlier for your infusion. Yay for your team winning! Some good games yesterday. Glad DS is feeling content and able to make do with the jobs he's picking up for his boss. Nice the GF brought flowers for your anniversary but hope she doesn't overstay her welcome next week. It was my Sis anniversary too. I figure we'll just call our booth the Emporium, and I envision and old timey store full of all the things you want and don't need .

Cathy Hope you can keep the mosquitos on the outside of the house. Glad DD is keeping things organized and that you could talk.

GG. Sounds like a nice time at the wedding and now you are done. How much time will the theater production take up? Do you do rehearsals and such? Any luck for the boys with the hunting? Can they each get a deer? That's a lot of venison!

Carole Hope you enjoyed you spooky movie and glad you didn't have to overdo it on the mini Hydrox. I don't think I had one S'more this summer but I know the kids made some at the cabin. I know I did eat the hershey bars, tho, that were in the freezer Enjoy your extra day tomorrow, doing anything fun?

Amy Sounds like a lot of $$ for the Fright Night but glad you enjoyed it. We used to have Johnny Rockets but they've closed around here. Glad you got to see the panda's before they left. I'm always surprised by your calorie burn too on FB. I can get mine up pretty good when I do any extra activity and 18,000 steps seems like a lot for not much return. I know when you're in line and not getting your heart rate up it makes a difference. Also I guess because I'm taller and weigh more, I burn more, but you are getting gypped . It makes sense to buy the star shape now that I see that the holes are oriented differently, wouldn't work as well if they were all straight up and down like regular canvas. After Fright Nights does the park close for the season or is it open year round down there? I think I've given up on Stridekick and will probably take the app off my phone. Just wasn't using it much, kept forgetting. Wish FB would have put the challenges back on.

Off to find some breakfast and then get moving before the TV comes on . Check in later
