Rest, recover, recharge
Sunday, March 07, 2021 12 comments Happy Sunday, spark friends! I am trying to not overdo it today. I got my first vaccine dose yesterday (Pfizer), and today I'm a bit achy and warm. I am scheduled to work all week. Here's hoping the temp is down by morning! DD borrowed... Read more
Wednesday Weigh-In
Wednesday, March 03, 2021 16 comments 151.7 meh I put my underwear on inside out this morning. I didn’t grab a mask at home, and it took me 3 mask changes and over 2 hours to adapt to the mask I’m wearing for the workday. I paid a bill with the wrong account number. *facep... Read more

Wednesday Weigh-In
Wednesday, February 24, 2021 16 comments 150.0 I don’t like it, but I look back to last year and have to give myself credit: 161.8 on 19.2.2020 and 163.6 on 26.2.2020. Look back without staring. We’ll see what the comparison looks like in 2 days. Benji yelped a couple times ... Read more
A Soft Place to Fall
Saturday, February 20, 2021 14 comments I am so sorry if I worried you! I used the phrase metaphorically, psychologically, in my friend feed. I didn’t compose it and I forget where I picked up the expression. It’s been a hard week here. While we are starting to thaw out, ot... Read more
Conserving Energy
Tuesday, February 16, 2021 16 comments Today my work was cancelled, but DH’s was not. They did cancel his outdoor responsibilities, for which I am grateful. We had the second coldest temperature of all time for our locale today. Yesterday I worked remotely, but to be honest, it was... Read more
Saturday nattering
Saturday, February 13, 2021 18 comments Today I am thankful for doggie daycare. Evidently Benji knows the word "lunch", so when I mused aloud about what I might eat, he paid attention. I heated some chicken soup, and put a few nibbles from it onto his dog food. When I put his bowl d... Read more
Thankful Thursday
Thursday, February 11, 2021 12 comments You know how when someone shares their imperfections with you, their insecurities and worries and flaws, how it sometimes draws you closer (if they’re not too needy)? I think that’s what yesterday did for me - for my relationship with myself. ... Read more
Wednesday Weight
Wednesday, February 10, 2021 11 comments 150.6 Today was a challenging day. I went to a self care presentation last night, grumbling all the way. Virtual, of course. As soon as the presenter had us close our eyes and take three deep breaths, I could feel my need to slow down. T... Read more
Winter Woolen Warriors
Tuesday, February 09, 2021 10 comments Each year, it seems, I am formally and informally grateful for wool. Absorbent, wicking, and warm, warm, warm! We’re in the deep freeze here, weather-wise, the depths of winter, so out come my brave strong friends. First up, the oatmeal heathe... Read more
It Snowed Again
Monday, February 08, 2021 15 comments Before the historic snowfall could melt away, we got another 4 inches of snow on Saturday and 2 more Sunday morning. The hardest part of scooping this snowfall was finding places to stack it. And having to work with the wind - tossing fluffy sno... Read more
Wednesday Weigh-In & I Appreciate You!
Wednesday, February 03, 2021 12 comments 148.3, 148.7, 148.2 I still play games with the scale, even though it's attached to my spark people ticker. 148.3? That can't be right. I ate candy last night. 148.7? That seems more reasonable. But it's heavier than I want to be. Let's co... Read more
Back to Work
Thursday, January 28, 2021 17 comments I surprised myself yesterday by napping for an hour and a half! The delayed onset muscle soreness let me know I had indeed worked out clearing the snow. I felt awake but kinda stiff when I got up. When I took Benji out, I saw that a plow pas... Read more
Mother Nature for the win!
Wednesday, January 27, 2021 12 comments 147.1 Wow. Shoveling snow must burn A LOT of calories! I didn’t track it, because...well, I don’t want to hurt SP’s feelings...the less conventional forms of exercise on the tracker don’t pan out well for me. I cannot eat as many calories as...
