Amy, you've got me craving lentil soup! yum!
AH! Work is SO tedious! THere's major problem and for days having all day online meetings! It's not like I can actually contribute anything or help! It makes it awkward to get my PT exercises in.

I am so sorry Deb. It is nice to be off work and when you go back to work its very hard. That's why I decided not to go to school or go to work. I really am happier not working because my sleep differs than others . Sometimes I sleep in late morning the best

I decided to stick to 1 can of progress lentil soup and my 2 moms meals. That is a little under 1500 calories. I went on my bike for 4 minutes yesterday and boy was I out of breath.

Good Morning. I am down a pound so far for our challenge and I am good with that.
We are re-thinking our vacation in May. His back is just too unpredictable for a long drive and all the walking around. We wnated to do the New England States. He wanted to go up to Maine, but I just don't see all that driving right now.
He gets a shot in his back I think he said at the beginning of April. The pain relief lasts only a few weeks. We need to figure out something else for him. I personally think that if your back already hurts and they are not going to do anythng else for it, you may as well go to the gym and figure out what you can and cannot do to relieve the pain. But then, it isnt my back.

mY DOCTOR sad to lose weight and exercise easier said then done gaining this weekend for sure. bought for next week after I looked at consumer reports a water cooler which takes 3 or 5 pound jugs of jwater bottom filled and chills them I think the water out of . I go t it 6 payments ./. I borrowed from the reserve fund I have to pay some things. I I bought a wagon to. put jugs and take them back home from the store. I do not know how much that costs. I have a low budget for food next month maybe only 2 meals a day/. I will pay everything back next month and have everything paid. I borrowed 131 and charged 77 for an online series of seminars in a few days starting next week. My stationary bike is together. I have a hard time dong exercise. I get Wednesday the wagon and Tuesday the cooler. it is electric and stands up. it bottom fills. pay 43 this month and pay off 211 next month I bought the wage with debit card. Borrowed 131 and figure maybe 50 dollars max in interest tower paid March 3.. But everything will be paid. My printer and clock to tell the. time was 275 and paid with my checking account. so I borrow enough to pay everything and 43 toward the the ocoler I will pay in in March. 43 is 1/6 psymrny of the item. I psif paid today for my fax/lsnf line internet withy checking account too. I was charged today for utube tv also on my credit card which I paid today too. I have a credit with my utility. but I cant pay anything in March either. Ihope I don't owe anything.

I can eat oatmeal for breakfast all February without haven to buy it. I am getting something I do not totally understand a Brit cooler with that dispenses hot or cold water with jug of water but you put in the bottom not on top where iis hard to lift.Somehow iHOPE This would let me transfer to water a 5 pound jug or 3 pound jug. I also bought a wagon to haul the jugs in once it comes and is put together. I may not have money till March for someone to put the wagon together. But I rearranged things so I could put the tall Brit near an outlet near the refrigerator. I moved the desk the microwave was on where a chair wa sand put the chair nearer to the desk with enough space to get in and out of the kitchen. Scott won't like it till he realizes I need room for the Brita. I found a place for the bike.i put the stationary bike nea=r the dresser while you can watch tv and then I can push it back and to left near the bed where there is a space right nea it I made to get out of the way. and during inspection.But tomorrow I want to do the Brita. I will not be able to afford renting jugs or getting them till April probably. But that is ok. The Brit is coming Tuesday and It is tall and I need a place for it. Had I not moved everything Scott would have said there is no place for it.

I had oatmeal for breakfast and will have my moms meal for lunch and moms meal for dinner. I am getting the Brita water cooler for bottom filling. The 4 jugs I will bring to grocery store to fill good water is 35 cents a 5 pound jug. I am getting a wagon for local store tool I do not know the price.This is costly but I want to try to do what I can. I will pay all excelpt the Brita off in March. I will pay Amazon for the Brita in 6 months. I also have mad a batch of air popcorn today. I have enough snap from this month to last 8 weeks February and March to spend 48 a week. The oatmeal for two boxes in 8 dollars., I can buy kernels for 4 dollars. And then spend for 3 packs of diet soda. And I have cash enough for filling the jugs. The Brita I have to pay in 6 months which I can. I can probably pay it off in April. I feel it is not a perfect solution but if I like the water cooler and the water I get in the 4 5 pound jugs a week. I will be happy. I am just paying for my hair cut the jug filling with can and some money I owe to someone and rent. That will allow me to pay what I usually a month for what I get tube tv. internet land line etc. and rent. I This is the last month of the pandemic high food snap and so I decided to get what I could this month. I also will be getting I hope something for a laptop I returned to ups when the screen had a big space I could not control.
