Good morning ~ I slept pretty hard and it felt good, but I'm still tired! I will survive. I had a productive day yesterday and hope to continue that into today. I have a lot to do starting with a very early meeting so I need to get moving!
QOTD - A piano player. Like the ones that can sit down and play absolutely anything - pop, showtunes and classical... Unfortunately, it requires talent I don't have.
Accountability - great, 47 exercise minutes and 11,176 steps. Today 168.6 with 30 minutes done on the treadmill.
B- coffee, yogurt and strawberries
l- pork chop tacos
d- the last of the pork chop in a burrito
s - jerky, cutie, watermelon
Have a great day!

I can't imagine being that close to a "swing" state. The political ads are bad enough at normal levels.

Good mornin everyone.
I'm about to throw two cats outside(no not really it just sounds like justice right now, I would never). They won't leave Tange alone AND Tange loses her **** when she is close to them. I was able to get a Feliway for mutation cat houses yesterday. It can take up to 7 days to notice a difference. It's been a frustrating night with them and both my mom and me are going to be working on little sleep.
We'll be running to the bank today...maybe Sam's. Not sure what my mom has planned. My digestive tract is still all wobbly. It just mostly seems to be upset at all times. Like someone has gone in there and roughed up my intestines.
QOTD: archeology field I guess. I wouldn't want to be too deep in mud for longer than a day or two then I'd be over it. I'd like to do some of the early America settlements...like Jamestown. Just to have a front row seat for a bit.
Breakfast was eggs and coffee
lunch will probably be some chicken
Dinner is unknown
Good Morning!
Yesterday was again, not productive 
This procrastination is getting dangerously CLOSE 2 DA EDGE ? if you eighties babies know what I mean ?
Yesterday was a wash except completed 2 terrace boxes ( a lot harder than it looks since it involves composting ,and water holder so containers don?t dry out when I?m gone for weeks or months to Florida ( hopefully real soon- it?s COLD! ) then chiropractored walked briefly and attended the amazing season premiere of Rigoletto at the Met (total theater standing ovation , first row orchestra seat - gosh I?m spoiled )
Spoiled with not having a commute too and being able to enjoy a scenic walk while poor drivers languish on the parkways.
Exercise - 4.5 miles B- bites of IKEA S- fresh berries w Stevia L- monkfish chowder D - 2/3 of a ? BIG AZZ? fried chicken sandwich from a truck stop Sunday ate in the car on the way to the opera . Surprisingly good but hard to choke down that fast 
so as to not miss the first act. Accountability- four Tates cookies last nite in bed 
This morning I booked Physical Therapy for 8:30 hoping to knuckle down to ( very necessary and timing sensitive) work afterwards.
I?m SO frustrated with myself for doing anything but what I need to day after day after day ?
I REALLY need one of Dr. Now?s amazing Bariatric therapists to help halt this destructive pattern ? seriously!
B- ff omelet , Yemeni coffee latte
L & D tbd Movement tbd . The inner muscles of my mid- back and shoulders HURT constantly unfortunately.
Getting a neck back ( no longer a bowling ball on hunched shoulders ) and dramatically straighter posture but the price for gently forcing stretching and correct spine alignment is temporary deep pain just where I can?t get to it .
Meloxicam ( a muscle relaxant ), Salonpas annd Voltaren , arthritis pain reliever and even Oxycodone ( a prescribed pain reliever I haven?t yet picked up ) will help if I actually take them ?. but my posture ( in clothes ) looks GREAT was prancing like a show pony last nite .
Feels great to get out and realized I need dress- up fall clothes and shoes ASAP. When you have the honor to sit with folks in tuxedos and beautiful evening dresses who paid half a thousand dollars for their tickets you can?t go in sweatpants and army boots .
So shopping?s in order too . Still 15 lbs away from my best weight but the right clothes can still fit well
Have a great day !
It was more like the officer trying to keep the traffic away from the sea lion, and the sea lion was like "I'm just gonna stand here, enjoying the view of the fields, and pretend this whole traffic jam is not because of me!"

Mornin' all. Yesterday was a pretty busy day, and I hope today will be too. Lots of little projects going on at once, which is when I'm happiest.
I am SO TIRED of political ads on TV. They aren't even ads for anyone I can vote for. They're all from New Hampshire. It's too close to MA, and they don't have large media outlets, so they use ours. My favorite is the idiots criticizing the mayor of Manchester because the price of burgers and fries has doubled. Apparently the mayor sets those prices. Who knew?
QOTD: I'd like to be a pilot for a day. That seems like fun for a day. But boring for every day.
Happy 100th, Jimmy!

G'morning all!
JB - being in HR is not for everybody, kudos to you for dealing with all the weird stuff. I always look at HR as customer service, you are never happy when you end up in customer service or HR. You guys wheats get the trouble issues.
This is one of those "only in Santa Cruz" and why we have bumper stickers that says keep Santa Cruz weird. The sea lion decided to hop on the freeway to see what's going on. CHP had to stop traffic in order to escort the sea lion to the beach. We always think the grass is greener on the other side.
QOTD: my one day job would be luxury travel planner. I know it has a lot of details to take care of, hence not really wanting the job, but to plan really high end travel with no budget constraints would be a dream. I also would like to do the personal shopper, but who are we kidding? I'd keep all the shopping for myself.
My meals yesterday:
- Coffee
- TikTok cucumber salad w/hb eggs & avocado
- Cuties X 3
- Protein Icecream - choc chip cookie dough
- E: 6 miles wog
Happy taco Tue!

Happy Tuesday, Friends. Welcome to adulthood, where I will share how tired I am with you all, haha. The crappy thing that happened last week at work came to an outcome yesterday. I think it went well, but it was stressful, and I dreamt about it on a loop all night. Today should be a pretty quiet day (knock on wood).
QOTD: If you could try any job for one day, what would you try? I can't decide between being a food critic or a high end personal shopper. Who am I kidding? -- food critic.
Accountability: Not perfect by any means, but still better than most days last week. Still no Wegovy, so I am winging it, but I was on track for the first few meals. I ended the day with leftover pizza and wine, though, which wasn't great but it felt like a fitting end to my stressful day, nonetheless.
- protein coffee
- chicken & broccoli
- honey garlic chicken
- chickpea tortellini cacio e pepe
