**AND ANY & ALL "NEWBIES" THAT WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH US
🌷The past week went well... I stayed on track with all activity, workouts, sleep and hydration. This week is Spring Break, & I'm a little bummed that we didn't make any major plans to go out of town. But we are making the most of a long weekend and started it off by going to the Lake. It was nice to just sit for a bit and look at the water, and feel relaxed and "in the moment". Mindfulness was at its best.
☀️ This week continued to be mild in weather, and it was very easy to continue to not only keep up with Group Fitness classes & activity, but also to get outdoors for walks and other activity with the Furbaby. There are many events, and ZUMBA-Thons going on this past week locally. Many of the Local Spring festivals have also started and begun already.
🌺 This weekend I'm at a cross-roads on intentions. Theres so much to do & get done personally, & so much I'd also "like" to do just for pleasure. But at the moment, I'm just taking in the beautiful weather & sunshine of the day. And will follow the day where it takes me~
@PoliteOcean
Hi, Ocean,
Happy April~ How have you been the past week? I've been stressed, but doing my best to think constructively and still moving forward.
🌞What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?! I called an attorney about my car service with Carmax. The lawyer said they think I have a case. Their office is assigning the case to one of their associates. I'm supposed to hear from them in the beginning of the week.
I had to take my car in to Carmax for the last time, this week. It was to give them a chance to right their wrongs. It was a stressful appointment but necessary. They failed miserably. Never
Never buy a car from Carmax.

Hey there Tree~
Sorry for you that your week was stressed, but its so great that you are continuing to do your best to think constructively and continuing to move forwards! Great job to you at keeping a positive mindset about things. Keep up the great work there that you are doing!
We are sending you positive vibes that things get situated and worked out with your car! Hopefully the lawyers will be able to get things done for you and get a better resolution! Please keep us updated on how that continues to go for you!
I think its awesome that you are looking forward ahead to continuing to make healthy choices and goals for yourself. Its not always easy by any means (for many of us), but as long as you don't give up, and continue to work at it, you are doing something great for yourself. If at first we don't succeed, try and try again!... We are all in this together! And here to support you.
🌷 Happy April~ How have you been the past week?
It has been a very challenging week, though there was good in it, too. I work somewhere where we have a quarterly schedule, and this is the end of one quarter, so I got some work done before the new one rolls over tomorrow. But there are personal challenges happening in my family, and the pain is starting to impact me outside of just in my own thoughts. I could not sleep past 3.30 in the morning last night, I was getting the suffocating feeling every time I try. That used to happen when things were really bad a couple of years ago. Back now, I guess.
🌞 This is our FIRST Check-in for the Month of APRIL!~.... What things are you Looking forwards to the MOST in this New Month ahead?!...What is your favorite Part of April?
I don't think much about April, no one in my family has birthdays this month and it's odd transition weather. I am looking forward to hopefully being able to work with a new team for part of my hours. They are doing work I admire and would love to help with. I get more details on how my time is being partitioned out next week.
🌺 What New Goals or Healthy Habits would you like to create or work on for yourself in April?!... What Small steps could you take "Today" to start meeting those goals?
I am losing one day of gym time each week because of a change in meeting schedule (we have to meet with someone overseas in our early morning), so I'm hoping to increase the intensity slightly in the last four days from what I normally do. I can look at my plan and see what can be added where today so I'm ready with the updated one on Monday.
🌷 JUST FOR FUN: IF you could Travel Anywhere you wanted for SPRING BREAK, Where would you Go?!
I would go back home to Prague.
🌞What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?!
There are different struggles in my family right now, one that is out of all of our hands (illness) and one that is due to a family member's cruelty. Unfortunately when things get bad back to back like this it's hard to differentiate things, and everything starts to feel swirling and bad.
🌺 What would "YOU" Like to talk about, add or share with us this week?! ....WE want to hear from YOU!~
Thank you for hosting these threads, Ocean. When I don't participate I still read everyone's words about their weeks.
@nordurnStar
Hey there Star!..So nice to hear from you this week~
Sorry for you that its been a challenging week, but its great that you were still able to find some "good" in it too!... Hopefully the personal challenges of your family comes to a resolution quickly with whatever is going on. We are here for you!
I agree. April can in fact be a an "odd" weather-transition month. Its that in between weather here, where its 50 degrees one day, and then 80 the next. (Like you never know how you will have to dress during the month from one day to the next)!..... Hopefully you will here or know something positive soon regarding working with the team that you desire to be with. Please keep us updated on how that goes for you!
Sorry that you are losing a "gym time" because of schedule changes... I know how that can be. Especially when you are used to doing things a certain way. I love my Gym/Fitness time, and don't like when a wrench gets thrown into those plans. I personally like to stay as consistent as I can or it gets a little challenging when it gets off track. Hopefully its the case for you. And that you will be able to figure out something that works for you. Its great that you are taking and making the time to think ahead on things and where you can make it happen for yourself. Keep up the great work.
Again, sending positive vibes with the situations going on with your family right now. I know how challenging family matters can be. Remember we are here for you!
And you are so welcome for these weekly check-ins! I myself so enjoy reading over everyone's week. Good or not, we are all in this together. And its nice to know we are not alone in our struggles and challenges. Remember we are here for you! And thank you so much for sharing with us this week. Please keep us updated on how things are continuing to go for you!
@PoliteOcean Here’s how the past week went. Sunday I prayed for Russia and I watched church on TV. During the week I tried to be faithful in my prayer life when Alan wasn’t being an interference. Dennis hasn’t come out of his bedroom for 4 weeks so that makes me happy. Monday, Friday and Saturday I went for a walk. Monday and Friday I went to the library and took notes on my poetical interpretation book. I paid $20 in delivery fees for my groceries. I can’t afford that. Fortunately, I found a solution. Tunde said he can pick up groceries from the grocery store when I order them online. I’m happy to announce I used sprouts on my sandwiches this week. People who live here have a problem with closing doors when it’s cold outside. Sifa dresses in fashions from the 1980’s. The 80’s were a great decade but that was 40 years ago. Leslie still likes keeping dead flowers on the dining room table. Thursday Leslie was using the vacuum at 7:20 a.m. in the morning. Thursday I finished my art history book, so I read some extra poetry on Friday and Saturday. Saturday someone (I think it was Alan) put a huge package on top of the couch. That’s really stupid and inappropriate. For this upcoming week, I’m going to order two more art history books and two more theology books. I hope to work on my poetry index soon, but I’m always worried Alan is going to take the remote control for the TV away while I’m studying. I always think of the right thing to say 42 years later. I’ve been working on a life plan for the next 7-8 years.
@Regmo
Hey there Regmo, (sorry for the late reply), It was a busier start of the week than I usually have.... Thats great for you that you are trying to remain faithful in your prayer life. I personally feel its very important no matter how things are going in our personal lives. Its good that you were able to get out and about and get your activity and walk time in. Good for you for doing such a great job with it. Keep up the great work with that. I think its awesome that Tunde can help you with the grocery pick-up (saving you delivery fees). I personally think if he is 'working' for you, then it probably should be something that he should be able to do for you anyway to help you out, especially if you are unable to go on your own to get them. Good job on your continued healthy dietary changes with the sprouts. Keep up the great work there with that as well. I had to LOL at the 80's comment. lol.... I personally am in LOVE with the 80's (it was my favorite decade for pretty much everything, mostly music). But that was a funny comment......720 is way to early to be vacuuming. I love to clean and keep things tidy myself, but not at that time of day. Wonder if she did it since maybe others weren't in her way and she could get it done at that time?? But still, not cool to wake others up at that time to do it. Thats good that you are taking the time to work on a future plan for yourself so far in advance. Thats a positive thing to focus on! Perhaps maybe you will share what some of those things are one day if you feel like it. Thank you for taking the time to check-in and share your week with us. Please continue as always to keep us up to date with things.
@PoliteOcean
The only thing for me to look forward to in April is Easter - and discount candy the day after...
@UberRuminator
Hey there Uber, thanks for checking in this week. We hope you enjoy your Easter ahead (and the candy too)!
@PoliteOcean What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?!
@MoonLightShadow423
Hey there Moon!
How lovely (and fun) to have family visit with you. I'm sure you had a great time. Its always nice (for me at least) to see family I haven't seen in a while. How fun that you got to babysit your nephews, we hope that you enjoyed your time with them!..
Its great that you made it through the other challenges that the week brought for you. We appreciate you stopping by to check-in and share your week with us! Please continue to check back and keep us up to date on how you are doing!
@PoliteOcean
This week i have cut down on my Cafeen and sweets.
@Gettingbettertoday
Hey there~
That is great for you that you are working on making healthier choices for yourself. I know Caffeine & sweets can be a challenging one sometimes for many. But just remember to start with small steps. Perhaps cutting back one cup of caffeine each day and gradually build up from there, or cutting back on a piece of sweets and swapping it out for a piece of fruit instead!
Every small step continues to add up to bigger ones overall. We are here to support you!
