Worked half a day today and then met up with an old friend. Ate lunch at a great little restaurant called Sunflowers and Greens. Walked in town for a little bit since it was nice out. Expect it will be nicer tomorrow. Got a run at a charity event tomorrow for the animal shelter. It should be fun.

Hope we both have a good weigh-in tomorrow! :carrot:

Today was a beautiful out. I did a bit of yard work trimming up bushes and picking up pine cones/magnolia seed pods. It was really nice. Hope tomorrow will be too, since I am going for a walk in a nearby State Park after Church with my dog and another lady.

Hope you had a nice Saturday.

It was a nice day today. Made a new friend during my walk. Enjoyed the nice weather while I could. Visited a bird of prey house. Loved the owl. He/she seemed very frisky today. Probably like the attention or warmer weather.

Getting ready for some spring cleaning in the house. Need to downsize and go through all our stuff and get rid of excess. It is so easy to accumulate stuff.

Hope you had a nice day and have a wonderful Monday! :)

It was a beautiful day! Most of the snow is melted. Went for a short walk in the fields, but they're really wet. I don't like to walk along the road.

Over ate a bit, but I'll get back on track tomorrow. Go Eagles!

Was at home most of the day today. I guess I will be back at work tomorrow. It was a beautiful day, and I even got my husband to walk with me at lunch time. We went to the bicycle shop so he could get a new bicycle seat, but they were closed for the week on vacation. So will have to try again next week. :bike2: Hope to get us both set up so we can ride together when it gets warmer out.

Rain headed our way. Enjoy your Tuesday!

My arm is getting better as far as movement after my fall at work, but it is still sore. Saw the Doctor today and she told me nothing is broken, and just to take some Advil for the pain. She told me it is all yellow and bruised on my elbow, which I hadn't even noticed. Guess I would have if I had looked at it in the mirror.

My waist is still expanded to the max. I need to figure out a way to get it down. I feel like a pumped up watermelon today. I don't want to have to buy any bigger clothes. Ugh!

I'm still avoiding the sweets which is good. Got to plan a luncheon at work for next week for hail/farewell and birthdays. Perhaps some Chinese food this time. I can order it and pick it up for folks. Usually we have a pig-in, but perhaps we will try something different this time.

Have a great Wednesday!

Boy did we get rain today! I'm glad it wasn't snow! At least the barn didn't flood. The sun came out in the afternoon and the temperature went to 85. I took a walk up around the fields and water was running all over the place.

Glad your arm is feeling better. I'm doing good with my food portions and snacks. I have some popcorn in the afternoon and it seems to keep me full until dinner.

Have a great Wednesday!

Wow you had 85 degree temperature yesterday? Are you sure it wasn't 65? So warm. Looks like you got some good walking in too. Crazy weather.

I had a long day today so didn't see any daylight. There was a car wreck on the way to work and someone had to be med-evacuated to the hospital. On the way home there was a brush fire. So heavy traffic jams both ways. Very long day.

Good job on your snacking! Hope you have a good Thursday!

How long is your drive to work? People are in such a hurry and distracted I'm surprised there aren't more accidents.

Sam was off so we moved some hay over to the barn where the horses are, then we fixed some siding that had come loose from the workshop building.

Have an awesome Thursday!

Oh no! Sorry your back is hurting again. My arm got a little better, but I can't pull and close the car door or turn it certain ways. I will give it a few more days before seeing the doctor again. I may have to get some physical therapy to get it back on track. Getting old stinks.

Hope you have a great Friday too!

Got up this morning to put my contacts lenses in and it felt like someone stuck a needle in my eye. What ever it was, it kept scraping across my eye and it was painful. I tried to wash it out in the sink, got back in the shower twice trying to flush it out. I even got my husband out of bed to help me. Eventually when I had given up all hope and was ready to go to the hospital, my husband tried once more and got the small piece of white plastic out of my eye. Where it came from, I have no idea. All I know is that it hurt very much. I wore my glasses all day, and will probably do so for a few days. My eye is still sore but will recover.

Next I went to church and enjoyed the service. Then took off to meet with my friends for lunch. We had a lovely time chit chatting catching up on things. On the way home I called my Dad to see how he was, and then I was home again to spend some time with the dog on a jog. It was a nice day otherwise even with all the rain. My husband was busy all day packing up things he wants to sell (old motorcycle parts). I think I had more fun then he did today.

Hope you had a good Sunday!

Ouch! That must have hurt!. Do you think it was stuck on the contact? Glad Mark was able to get it out and the rest of your day went well.

Went to church and stayed afterward for a stewardship meeting. I cook the Sunrise Service breakfast and run our Spring rummage sale every year. Both will be here before you know it.

Guess we're going to get a bit of snow Monday night into Tuesday. I'm meeting a friend for lunch on Tuesday and hope we don't need to cancel.

Yes, more snow headed our way. We will probably only get an inch by morning. I think I have had my fill of snow for this year. I am sure you have too. You always get more than us.

Hope it is nice this weekend. I planned a few more walking events, and I handful of people who have already signed up. So I am excited about it.

Nothing real special about today. I was getting ready to go home, when I noticed I hadn't had my lunch yet.....which is not good. However, I was lucky and somehow avoided having a headache.

Hope you have a great Tuesday!

Boy, you did a lot of steps! My knee would never be able to do them :(

Someone had thrown trash right next to the field the horses are in and some had blown into the field. I had to go clean it up before they got into trouble with it. I don't know why people can't take their trash home and dispose of it.

Put together some more purple martin houses I bought at the end of the summer. I'm hoping to have more this year. They won't arrive here till April.

Went out to lunch with a friend and had a nice visit. It snowed a bit, but the ground was warm and it soon melted. It has gotten very windy and cold. I hope it warms up soon!

Getting my spring perm tomorrow. I get about 3 a year. My hair is naturally curly and it so easy to take care of. Just wash and go. :)

That is horrible about the trash. People are just lazy and so inconsiderate! They don't think about the dangers of their actions and the results. So sad. I get mad when I see trash around here and even the dog poop that gets left behind. I always carry bags with me for my dog. I hope your horses don't find any trash to eat.

Oh that will be so nice to put a few more houses for the Purple Martins. They will definitely like that!

I only saw rain on my travels today, but my husband said he saw a few flurries here during the day.

Hope your perm turns out good. It must be nice to have a carefree hairstyle.

We need to plan a get together sometime soon. Perhaps in late February.

Have a great Wednesday!

On the way to work today, I heard on the radio that Dunkin Donuts has some heart-shaped donuts for sale. At work we have a Dunkin donuts, so I was good and avoided them as I came in to work. I thought about going and buying some for the office, but a few others in the office are on diets too. Plus I know I will tell myself I will only have one but then will eat more. So I avoided them in the morning. However at lunch time I went to the bank and Dunkin Donuts is nearby. So I thought it wouldn't hurt just to take a look at them. So in I walked and saw 2 different types. Luckily the lady was away from the cash register, so it gave me a moment to think about what I was doing. I took a quick sniff of the air and thought to myself, well that sniff is calorie free, so now get yourself out of here. I quickly left before I was asked, "and what would you like?" So I avoided eating any donuts today. Just had the calorie free type. :D

Hope you had a good day!

So went to the Medical center today about my arm, and was told that I probably don't have a broken or cracked bone. However, they did suggest there may be some muscle damage or pinched nerve, so I will be going to Physical Therapy.

Most of the rest of the day was spent doing paperwork stuff that hate. It was just too cold outside to do much of anything. I hope it is a bit warmer tomorrow, but I heard they are predicting a few snow flurries, so I guess I will just have to dress very warmly for my walk or jog.

Tomorrow is weigh-in. Good luck!

Renee, you still had a loss which is good. Every little bit counts. I bet next week it will even be bigger. Don't lose hope, you can do it. I know you can. You have been doing great! :cheer2: Almost 10 lbs this month.

Pizza and wings are good, just make sure that you don't eat too many. You can always have celery and hot sauce/salsa too on the side. They don't have too many calories. Even if you do indulge some, well you have the rest of the week to work it off until next Saturday. :ebike: Enjoy the game!

Today was a very, very cold day. I bundled up real good so the only part of me that got kind of cold was my face. Came home and took a very hot shower, which felt so good and later made some hot veggie soup. There is enough for a few more days too. I always end up making too much, but then it is a good way to use up all the vegetables before they spoil.

Have a great Sunday!!!

What a rainy day. All the walkers in the group cancelled due to the rain. I walked in the rain anyways with my dog and umbrella. Met a nice lady and dog at the dog park. Our dogs had a good time playing and running in the rain. Afterwards took mine and gave him a good bath. Had it planned that way anyways because he needed a good bath. Watched the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes" that I checked out from the library. Have you ever seen it? It is a good movie. A tear jerker though.

Hope your football team wins!

What a great football game yesterday!!!

We have an icy mess here. I needed my ice grips just to walk up to the barn. Luckily it was just crunchy snow behind the barn and I could turn the horses out. We're in for more of the same on Wednesday. I don't think we'll be able to plow with all the ice under the snow. I'm so ready for Spring!!!!

Yes, did 12 miles the other day. Jog for 30 seconds, and then walk for 90 seconds, repeat. I did that pattern the whole way, and it made it easy. Plus I had good company so the time passed by quickly too. It was a technique that my walking friend is using to train to do a half marathon. I tried it with her and was surprised that I did it too, since it has been a while since I have gone that far.

Are you going to get plastered with snow again? I think we will only get rain here in the morning, but we shall see. Hope it doesn't get too bad for you. Have a happy Wednesday!

Doing good so far this week with my diet. It helps that I don't have too much food in the house. Week is half gone.

Arm is much better now, so I am going to skip the Physical Therapy. Almost back to normal.

How is your Mother-in-Law doing?
