What's on your Monday Menu?
We don't even give them an option of tearing up the garbage we just chuck good leftovers in the back yard. Ron put a water bowl out because we have not had any rain in a long time. Our grass is completely browned out. As I was making my coffee yesterday morning I saw the fox drinking from the bowl. It was pretty cool. It was there for the squirrels, but the fox has been very happy.

Good mornin y'all.
I've not slept much. I've been up since 12 something. It's supposed to get to 103° today. Yay. This morning while giving myself one of the insulin shots my arm jerked and the needle tore a big scratch. It's amazing how much blood a little needle can drawl. It's hopefully stay mostly at home day. We need to run to a certain grocery store this morning. I also need to drop a package off at the post office. I've worked my arse off with chainmaille this past weekend. So I have a large shipment to send.
I'm hoping for a nap or six today hahaha. I'm on my third cup of coffee. Pain is excruciating but it has helped a bit, the upped pain med. my neck and shoulders are really getting to me, hopefully they'll approve the MRI on my neck.
QOTD: I have inserts on an old pair that the cover of the soles came off of...just cheap ones. Other than that none at all.
food is up in the air. Breakfast was the usual...eggs and what not.
here are some of the pieces done this weekend, the earrings are mine, they get a lot of compliments.

Good morning, everybody!
Marilyn gets home this evening. She must be having a great time, because I have barely heard from her. I sent a longish text update and got a thumbs up emoji back. As for me, I would love an extra day of weekend, but I'm back to work and swim class today.
The fishing trip that my son and I had planned for yesterday ended up being rained out. Hopefully we can do it next weekend. And I got the worst lane at swimming last night - right up against the wall and my hand hit both the ladder and the lane rope. I called it after 400 meters. Plus, i realized that I didn't order the hardware to install my new bicycle seat. Still, it was a good day, all in all.
QOTD: I used to wear supports in my weightlifting shoes, but my overhead mobility is better now, so I don't need them anymore.
Breakfast: English muffin
Lunch: catered
Dinner: Steak
Have a great day, all!

Good morning ~ Our cat never comes out for company. He usually hides well, but the plain site hides are the best. I've been sick all weekend and was feeling better yesterday, but woke up with a full on sinus congestion w/headache this morning. I'm staying home, no WFH, just rest and maybe catch up on laundry and put on some fresh sheets.
QOTD - Yes and no - some shoes I have are orthotic - sandals, slippers, flip-flops and I have inserts in all my boots, sneakers and gym shoes. The only bad boys are my Uggs, Converse and Rothys. My feet scream after a while in these, but I love them.
Accountability - none - I ate like crap and did not move! Oh wait, 3 active minutes and 4,246 steps. Saturday was worse - 2 active minutes and 844 steps. 170.0 today and zero exercise planned but will eat on plan - no excuses.
b- coffee, eggbeater and cheese wrap in the airfryer
l - costco chicken bites with buffalo sauce
d - costco sirloin, mashed potatoes and gravy
s - cherries, watermelon, jerky
Have a great day

I saw on Tictok if you spray your feet with generic Bactine (equate brand) it helps relieve foot pain. Ron tried it with a lidocaine-based sunburn reliever, and it helped instantly.
