Good morning.
This thread is for anyone that has been away from healthy eating, had a gain and is recommitting. We accept all forms of healthy eating here, whatever that means to you. We touch base daily for accountability and to encourage one another. This is a judgment free zone.
We all struggle to get the weight off and keep it off. Sometimes this is a challenge, but we never give up and that is the key. Regardless of our situation or where we are in reaching our goal, we count on talking to each other every day and are blessed to have one another as friends.
Feel free to jump in and join us. All are welcome here.
Our motto is persistence, not perfection.

Hello friends and Happy Saturday!
Well I guess my little nap yesterday afternoon messed up my sleep. Because here I am at 1:45am. I don't feel sleepy, but it looks like a long day for me. I'm going to try really hard to not nap later, so that I can get my hours back on track (hopefully).
No real plans for the day other than to get to the gas station and fill up the big 5 gallon gas can and drop off the water bill. The water bill just drops in a door slot, so no need to touch anything. We've got to get the gas so we can mow tomorrow.
Our Governor FINALLY announced the official "stay home" order (previously it was just a strong suggestion), not that it actually changes anything for me and Mark. We were already adhering to the recommendations. Hard to believe there are still states that are without any kind of keep your butt at home guidance. Sigh, I think she (the Governor) hoped that the previous recommendations would be taken seriously, and for the most part I think they were, but there is always a segment of any population that is going to have that "you can't tell me what to do" mentality I suppose. And honestly I don't know that the stay at home order will change that for some.
Anyway, supper last night was simple. Cheese omelets and sausage patties. Tonight might be pork chops. I have a big pork loin that I'm going to slice into loin chops. I'm a little tired of pulled pork with different all of my go-to seasonings. We haven't had pork chops in a long time, so that should be a nice change. I can slice it all up and what I don't use tonight I'll freeze in individual portions. I have a head of cabbage in the fridge, maybe I'll sauté that with bacon. That's always a delicious side dish.
Janet - sorry for your frustrating experience getting your time card submitted. Those kind of things are probably frustration for everyone involved. Hopefully next time will be smoother for all.
Jana - I hope you have nice weather and that you and Pops are able to get your walk in today.
Waving to everyone I'm missing. I hope everyone has a great Saturday! I'm sure I'll check back later.

Hi Everyone, Planning to stay put for most of today but may take a walk again around my development later. Need to vacuum and will work on decluttering. Later maybe start a different book. The one I started I think I dont like enough to continue reading. That's about it really. Tommorow I will shop for my friend and get a few things I need. I checked my timesheet and its still not fixed. She has to have it turned in by Sunday night before midnnight. If I see it isnt done tommorow evening I will text her a reminder again. Its my pay and I need it so unless she plans to pay me from her own pocket I plan to be a pain in her you know what. Lol! Have a productive day!

Good Morning ...Everytime I opened my eyes and checked the clock, I thought, "Why should I get up?" so I kept going back to sleep. I guess I was lucky to do so, huh Lora? But finally, DH and I both heard a bang and I had to get up and see if I could figure out what it was...didn't find anything except a rug in a box lid that could have fallen off of a shelf in the garage where I was working yesterday.
It doesn't look too windy and the sun is out, so I think I will take a gentle walk today. After exercising yesterday with weights and walking, a neighbor texted asking if I could help cut out fabric for face masks. I was happy to do something to help since I didn't feel comfortable sewing them together. She dropped off everything I needed and I set up a station upstairs and wore rubber gloves and a mask for extra safety. I cut enough fabric for 53 masks and delivered them to a neighbor who was sewing them together.
Thanks for the input on hiding the Easter eggs for DGDs and DGS!

Wow - I posted and the whole thing disappeared = that makes me sad. LOL
Susie what is your group doing with the face masks they are making? I guess I might need to try and buy a couple from somewhere. IDK - this whole thing gets crazier and crazier.

RobinMD - Ohhhhhh! I'm so excited, I saw my first hummingbird this evening! So I guess my day is April 4th! I was standing on the patio and the little booger flew up and hovered right in front of my face about 2 feet away. It startled me for a second. Haha. Then it zipped over to the feeder for some sips before flying off into the trees. I just had to come here and tell you. I hope it was a quiet shift today. Safe, quiet and uneventful.
