Aww, happy anniversary to you and your hubs! Hope you were able to celebrate a little given the situation. :)

Mornin' All!
well between helping to pack up and clear out my late friend's condo (was there again on Saturday), spending several hours at the ER with my mother yesterday (she's fine - just a scare), and attending the virtual genealogy conference Thursday-Saturday (when I could - fortunately, the sessions were recorded and up on the Web site, since there were some I really wanted to watch but had to miss), I am hopelessly behind on classes. Plus one of my film groups meets on Friday (so I have to watch the film this week), and we have the Hindu wedding this week, 11-3 on Thursday for the ceremony, and 5-midnight on Saturday for the reception (and no, I am NOT kidding! I've heard that in India weddings can last several days! But I'm not upset about the time - I'm actually really looking forward to this!). So I will be reading, reading, reading this week. And watching the film. Which is fine. Hopefully nothing unexpected will pop up again, though!
QOTD: I'm not a big grudge-holder - in fact, I was just now going through the file cabinets in my brain, trying to remember when I've held a grudge. I'm pretty good at mentally separating myself from unpleasantries, although it sometimes takes me a couple of days to work through them.
B: plain skyr with fruit, coffee with half & half
MS: I'm going to water aerobics in a few minutes, and then to a coffee get-together with some friends, so I guess just more coffee - or an iced latte (with SF syrup). May take a protein bar with me just in case
L: salad with diced ham and light dressing
AS: protein shake or protein muffin
D: ?? If I get around to make a spinach kugel today, then some of that - otherwise I'm not sure.
have a great day, everyone!

Glad your mom is okay. And that you were somehow able to find extra time in the weekend to help with your friend's place again. That wedding sounds like it will be an experience! Good luck balancing what sounds like an incredibly full schedule!

Good morning ~ I am usually good at avoiding the breakroom crap. Donuts aren't my thing, but a few weeks ago with the oatmeal cookies? that happened. I usually imagine others having touched each and every one with their grubby hands and that is enough to turn me off. Lovely rainy weekend - the kiddo couldn't make it over yesterday so I still have Mando to watch. I started watching a few new shows - Trues Lies I thought was kinda bad, The Company you Keep was great - LOVE Milo! Not Dead Yet was pretty cute. Otherwise I read and got a lot done around the house and that feels good. Work today, my boss is sick so that cancelled my meetings. That means more time to catch up and get organized - yay!
QOTD - I used to take things so personally and could not get past that kind of hurt. Anymore - I've learned to distance, let go and move on for my sake. I ain't got time for that ****
Accountability - None, just none.
B- coffee, eggwich
l- frozen mystery food - its either pork chili verde, green pozole or white chicken chili
d- pork chops and green beans
Have a great day!!

LOL!! Pot lucks - so my soon to be old unit does them every month which I can totally avoid now! but my new unit brings in lunch stuff every week to share - like sandwich stuff for the panini grill. Smaller group, less grubby hands, but I don't partake. They also pick up take out at least 2x a week. It's brutal.
