Rainy Monday

 

Howdy. It's Monday again and it's finally starting to cool down. We are getting rain today but it's much needed. Soon we will be buying pumpkins and decorating for Halloween 💀and then Thanksgiving 🦃. With so much going on in the world, it's a stressful year.

My long weekend was good. My daughter and I made homemade salsa We always make chunky salsa 🍅 but this time we mixed it up a bit. We made chunky salsa and some restaurant style. We made a huge batch and included 8 jalapenos 🌶. It’s hot but its damn good LOL We took some to my parents, kept a container of each in our fridge and froze the rest. We love having extra stocked up and ready to use for the winter.

Well, my 10th week on WW and I lost 5.8 lbs. for a grand total of 36.4 lbs SO FAR. I'm really starting to feel a difference and I can see changes in my body. I am going to start incorporating more exercise and I know that will help.  I haven't really been anywhere so I don’t know if anyone can tell. My daughter can so that's a good thing. I would like to lose at least another 40-50 lbs. before we go back to the office. We are still working from home and have no date when we will be back in the office. Honestly, I hope they wait until winter ⛄is over since I have a 45minute drive in good weather. 

Well, time to cook dinner. Have a good one and keep smiling. 

UGH another Monday

 

Monday's are rough. On the weekends, my daughter and I stay up super late watching movies and such so Sunday nights, I don't want to go to bed. It's at least midnight or 1am before I'm able to turn my brain off and head to bed. Most times it doesn't bother me Monday morning but today, not so much. 

The temps are getting cooler which is a good thing. Fall starts this week which means fall and/or Halloween decorations 🎃💀.  From what I hear, it's supposed to get hot again. Really doesn't matter during the week though. I have a desk job and sit in front of a computer. At least I can enjoy the sunshine coming through the window. 🌞🌞

Weighed in this morning and I lost a whole .6 lbs.  Yes you read that right, .6 lbs.....not even a full pound. It's my fault though. We had some late nights last week which led to me (us - my daughter and I) getting the munchies. Guess I paid for it huh?? Oh well, it's Monday, another week and I am on track today.

One of my best friends 👩at work called me over the weekend and they are doing away with her job. She is hoping to take another position so she can stay with the company. I really hope so. She is from Colorado and if she can't stay on with our company, she will be moving back home. 🙁 It makes me sad. If she does move back to CO, we are going to plan a vacation together next spring/summer. We're thinking the beach. Sounds heavenly. ⛅🌞🌊 (the blue one is supposed to be wave lol). 

So that's about it for today. Have a great week and I will write more later this week.  

             

Almost another work week

 

Well, it's Sunday evening already which means tomorrow is another work week. Again, I am off Thursday and Friday. My work year end is September 30 and I am trying to get my vacation time used. If we dont use it, we lose it. Nothing much planned. Between the pandemic and having no money, that pretty much dictates what I will be doing on my two days off............watching TV, sleeping or working around the house. 

Not much going on today so not much to share. Oh, I weighed myself today and I am down another 2.6 lbs. with a grand total of 30.4 since July 18. 🎉🥳 That's pretty good for 8 weeks. I hope I can keep going. My goal is to lose another 30-35 by Christmas. I think its feasible. I just keep plugging away. I have a LONG way to go but I am doing this for me so I'm not stressing if I have a bad day. 

So anyway........later my lovelies  💓..............
