Friday I will start the week off right by planning tracking hydrating and moving. Donna is coming over to spend the day with LuLa and me while Carl goes to grand jury. It's going to be bitter cold tomorrow so we'll bundle up for our hood walk. Right now it's sleeting but not supposed to last. Sweet dreams all  |

Ann, it will be nice for you to have Donna’s company while Carl is gone. Definitely bundle up and walk carefully.
Becky, I hope you can make your appointment. My doctor had an x ray technician at the office so I could always see what was going on with my knees. I hope this doctor is good and thorough.
It’s move, track and hydrate for me too. We are going out to dinner so I have to be careful about the rest of my day. I may be visiting my friend who has depression and other issues but she often cancels. Today she had a bad headache so I told her to call me in the morning. If not, I’ll call her.

Yes, Ann, you and Donna bundle up.
Becky, sure hope you get to your appointment.
Audrey, never give up on your friend.
Sounds like you Ladies have a good plan!
I will do what I know to do. Wear my WILLING shoes, peer through my AWARE glasses and know that I have the ABILITY to do it --- if I so choose.

<waving> late Thursday since Friday morning will be early and intense. The Young Marines are providing an honor guard for a Veterans Tribute at a hotel 30 miles north, right by the George Washington Bridge. We are heading out at 6:30 AM since it will be Friday morning rush hour traffic.

I can:
* write before I bite * move * hydrate * stay positive
I signed up for a 21 day whole food plant based challenge that was to begin the 4th of November and the demonstrations and roads closing happened before I went shopping. I haven't given up and read and listen to the videos but some of the ingredients in the recipes aren't easy to find so have not followed the menus 100%...Ah well...a work in progress making progress
As for crazy scale...down 2 pounds overnight so hopefully some of the pounds that found me are water weight...if there is such a thing 
I have the women here on Wednesday so need to come up with a menu. I am not sure but am contemplating doing a vegan menu for them...if I can come up with something I think they would all like.
Hubby says there might not be rain till Christmas...argh...
SUSI: one of my new goals might be to plan meals in advance...not sure when...but someday.
JUNE: It is good to be in touch with family by computer rather than relying on the tiny cell phone!
ANN: Hope you found time for R&R and enjoyed it, too! I have read Janet Evanovich...gave up on her Stephanie Plum series because she never could make her mind up between all the hot guys. I mean...keep them all or make a decision? Anyway...hope you enjoy your book! Sleet? Yikes...be careful outside when you walk!
MJ: Good to see your longer post and hear what you have been up to. Sorry your gut was on the fritz.
BEE: your soup sounds delicious! No crock pot here but I am sure it could be made on the top of the stove.
LADONNA: What did you end up eating after PT? Did you cook, pick something up or??? I know you will enjoy Jayleigh I, too, know what to do but don't always have the mindset to do what needs to be done to drop weight.
AUDREY: When my weight is nearer goal weight the fluctuations are usually five pounds or less but now...five pounds fluctuation can happen in a day...so weird the way the body is.Perhaps it has more to do with % of total body weight or something? Ah well. The protests continue. The students were in the streets with teachers at the elementary/HS next to our house. The government has been made of by religion and with families that were in power for decades if not centuries. There is corruption, theft, bribery...you name it. Anyway...it is time for change and was time for change a long time ago but...who knows if the demonstrations will create change or not.
BECKY: I hope the ortho doctor has a solution for the pain!
Just lost government electricity and the village generator kicked in. When I moved here forty years ago there was electricity 24/7...another corruption thing with people making money selling generators and stealing govt electricity...ANYWAY...I am going to go doo my first 10 minute walk and then return to the computer to do some more catching up AFTER I hang the laundry on the line outside.

Bee happy 'doing what you know works' Audrey I shall be extra careful. I do not play well with ice. Hope you get to visit with your friend today. Becky praying that your doctor visit goes well and he is able to help you. Keep us posted. Waving to all I missed and wishing all a happy Friday and OP day. Will CBL |

Scale slid down at WI. Not a lot, but a slide down of any amount is sure appreciated.
Yes, Cathy, you could do it on the stove.

Sorry about that Becky. Enjoy your shopping.
Just came back from a very invigorating walk. Sunny but the real feel is 18 degrees.
Time for coffee.

Glad its Friday - weekend will be busy. Jayleigh tonight then a celebration tomorrow for one of our oldest church members who recently went to an assisted living facility. She chose to do this on her own. She was a music professor at Lenoir Rhine College in Hickory NC for her entire career. She never married and lived in her parents gorgeous home after their death and her retirement. It was too much for her to keep up the older home and grounds so she sold out and moved. She is doing quite well. Some of her former students wanted to honor her tomorrow with a piano recital and reception and invited her church family. It will be good to see her! I hope Sunday will be church and the rest of the day free to do as I please Ann, wow that sounds really cold! you ladies enjoy your girls day together. Becky, sorry you didn't get to make it the dr. take care Audrey, we're taking Jayleigh out to dinner so I'm keeping it light as well - hope all is well with your friend Bee, what a great statement- we DO have the ability when we choose to use it MJ, be careful Cathy, I ended up with another veggie omelette and fruit - same as the day before LOL but it was good! I hope you will be able to get your shopping done so you can do the 21 day plan you signed up for. Sounds like it would slide you on into onederland Susi, enjoy not much going on - we need days like that every so often. |
