A little drop!!! A new "low"!!!! LOL!!! Amazing how excited I can get when the scale declines even a tad ... reminds me of how excited I was when my little boy used his potty chair successfully for the first time!!! We humans are indeed funny!!

I actually am not feeling great. Started last night. A little congested and headachey. I think it must be the weather. It is HOT here (especially written for my buddy Glen who thinks 95 in the desert is actually like 78 because it is a "dry" heat and who giggles at those of who think 95 is HOT!!! Well actually, Glen may not "giggle" per se ... he may be more likely to guffaw!!!).

Maybe my body is just readjusting, detoxing, I found myself overly thirsty last night. Up my water again today and I will be fine. Don't need to work a full day today. Yay!! I gave my hair stylist a sample of the Greens I've been taking and she texted me and asked how she could get more!! So I'll be stopping by her salon this morning so she can order some. Those Greens. I do love them. Once you get past the color you just can't stop yourself! Some paperwork in the office then I will be scooting back home.

DH has been working long, long hours. Earlier yesterday he told me he had to work today and Saturday. Well, he wasn't up yet so I just went upstairs to ask him what time he was getting up. Well, it changed. He does not have to work today! He forgot to tell me. That's how tired he is. He does still have to work tomorrow but at least he gets today off. Road construction in snow country means things come to a halt by November 1st, so the company is pushing to get as much done as they can.

Well I guess that means I should move onto my own exercise then? Elliptical today. I did get on the bike yesterday though I didn't want to. I've been slacking in the Pilates department though. It is very challenging to do 30 minutes on the bike or elliptical AND do 15 to 30 minutes of Pilates on a work day. I just can't get it done. I think getting up at 4 am is early enough. Any earlier and I might as well give up sleep all together.

Grateful today for ...

Payday Friday!!
Chimneys have been swept so no worries about chimney fires hopefully this winter.
DH is still alive ... doing okay ... grateful for every day we have.
Managing to stay on track for 3 weeks now I think it is (time passes so quickly I forget).
All the buddies I've made here on fatsecret who are still my buddies as the years have passed.
Coffee ... it's the one thing I just can't seem to give up!

Okay my friends ... I really must go. Hope you all are well and taking good care of yourselves. I'm doing my best ... imperfectly to be certain but my best!!

TGIF sweetie, and pay day, mine too. Love those pay days. And glad you saw a drop on the scale. Hope you get some rest over the week-end. Did you get the wood chopped yet? And how is the generator holding up?

No wood split yet. Generator is still acting weird but we've been too busy to do too much about it. Hanging tough!! Thanks for asking Isabel!

I will say that I am used to the warm weather now and I just love it.. I look at the temps in Buffalo and London Ontario right now and I am just happy that I can be warm. I hope you are feeling better today Carol.
