What's on your Wednesday Menu?
Did they leave your dad extubated after he pulled out the ETT (breathing tube)? I am happy to hear he stabilized and that his surgeries went well. You definitely don't need the added stress with the car. Make sure to do some self-care to keep your stress level in check.

I loved that meme when I saw it on FB the other day!
I hope things will improve with the car and I'm happy to hear your dad is stabilizing!

That meme is perfect. To wake up beautiful...ahh the dream.
QJB-I like your attitude about the party. Why fight it since it only adds to your stress level, but I am sorry you may have to get a job to make it work out. That is a bummer since you seemed to be busy between the cookie business and school. But you gotta do what you gotta do. You should send pictures of the new space. I assume it is a commercial kitchen at the college? I hope it is everything you want it to be.
My mammogram went well. No changes to the size of the calcifications. Therefore, another mammogram in 6 months, they will continue surveillance for 2 years, then if no changes back to annual. I was happy with that news. Plus, I was able to make an earlier yoga class time but didn't get my weight workout in due to timing. So that is the plan for today.
QOTD: I have an iPhone, which of course is Apple. I have never had the opportunity to use a Mac computer. I hear once you use one you would never go back to PC.
Accountability: Excellent
meals are the same as yesterday.
E: 60 min yoga, back, rear delts, biceps weight workout

To be fair, I do not have to get a job to fund this party, I just feel the weight of "what if" looming and worrying about what happens if I don't get a job or the economy crashes or another pandemic hits..Ahhh!. I just feel like it would be more responsible to make sure I am not hitting the bottom half of my savings this year, and unfortunately this party gets me a lot closer. But again--oh well. I am going to eat the CRAP out of the blackened fish taco appetizers we ordered and get my money's worth :)
