**AND ANY & ALL "NEWBIES" THAT WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH US
🌞This past week went well, & was a fairly busy one.... I kept up with and on track with various things, a few appointments, grooming for the furbaby, workouts/activities, meal-tracking & planning, hydration goals, vitamins, (& sleep was hit or miss depending on the day) & I did have a few days of feeling a little exhausted & worn-out". But took the time that I needed for some self-care & relaxation when needed.
🌺 I started the weekend off again with a few local festivals where there was (lots of vendors, food, music, & activities).. But I did manage to get in Plenty of walking and steps just browsing & walking through it all. And again managed to log in another 20,000+ steps!... I am really enjoying the return of Spring/Summer Festival season as it also brings more of them to the area. And it allows me to get in more weekend activity & helps me to reach my step goals quicker while also doing something fun and that I enjoy..... I also continued to stay on track with my regular morning Group Fitness classes and have managed to reach my April Goal that I set for myself and my health this month!
🌼 This past week the weather was nice & mild allowing me to continue to get outside more, & for more continued walks with the furbaby. Today so far, its been cloudy... & I have no real intentions or plans since its just myself & the Furbaby today... So I decided to sleep in this morning & catch up on some rest. I Then got up & got a good home workout in. This afternoon intentions are to get us both out for a good walk if it doesn't rain... Sunday is another local art festival with more vendors & activities, so intentions are to get out to that as well (to get in more activity & steps) while also continuing to work on my health goals. In the week ahead, I'm looking forwards to the end of April & the beginning of MAY (and the summer ahead)!.... As well as a probable impromptu trip to the Beach as the weather will turn much warmer & more Summer-like next week.~
JUST FOR FUN:... You are going on a Vacation and can only visit "ONE" place that starts with the "FIRST" Letter of your "7cups Name"... WHERE are you choosing to go?!!.... (PARIS)!!
@PoliteOcean Here's how the past week went. Today is Sunday, but from now on I'm going to have to post my updates on Monday for the previous week. My Obama phone won't let me connect to the internet. I'm going to take it in to the Smart phone repair shop this week. I hope it doesn't cost too much. I hardly saw Sifa at all last week, so that makes me happy. I went to the library 4 times and went for a walk 4 times. Chuck is such an idiot. I really hate having him as my driver. Saturday I tried reading my devotional book but Tai started to blast music in the back yard so I had to stop. Saturday night Chuck took me to Taco Bell so I could use my food stamps to pay for dinner. It gave me a nice break from the lousy food Leslie feeds me. I really need a back and leg massage. I used to get a lot of massages but I can't afford that now. I have to find a way of financing it anyways. I have a muscular condition called myofascial gelosis which makes my muscles get glued and stuck together. Getting a massage for me is a medical necessity. I haven't made a Starbucks run for the month of April. Maybe I can do that in the next few days. My brother Greg sent me $20. Pretty pathetic. It's going to take $12,000 for me to get cured.
@Regmo
Hey there Regmo~ Hopefully things get figured out with both your phone & internet situation soon.. sounds like both a hassle & a challenge. As far as Sifa, I didn’t realize she was still in the picture or around anymore?… That’s great for you that you are continuing to keep up with both your library visits & your walks. It’s good to get out of the house, get out & about, not to mention the fresh air and activity…. Nobody is perfect that’s for sure, (Even if someone thinks they are)… But I think it’s good that despite Chuck’s imperfections, that he’s continuing to stick around for the caretaker job and seems to be trying to be as helpful as he can for the most part…. As finding a good & decent caretaker can be quite the work & hassle…. Have you discussed with Chuck why his driving has been bothering you so much? Or what things you’d like to see change? It Seems like he’d listen & try to do better & maybe correct things if he knew it was bothering you? After all he is working “for you”… I think it’s really nice that he got you out for both a change of scenery as well as dinner plans to give you a break & a change of pace on something different to eat... As for your medical condition, I wonder if the medical insurance might help to cover your massages if they are “medically needed”., I’m sure a spa-type place wouldn’t cover it, however maybe massages with a physical therapist (or the alike), might qualify if an order was written by your doctor? But it’s something you’d probably have to look into if you haven’t done so…. I think it’s pretty nice that your brother took the time to send you something (& money is always nice) to use on something you like. I’m an only child therefore don’t even get that luxury… Or I know siblings of others who don’t even bother at all…. $20 will be a nice amount to either save for another time when you really need it, or to maybe spend at Starbucks on a nice Drink & perhaps a sweet treat or breakfast item. I like their breakfast choices even though it’s rare that I get them or have them. Thanks for checking in this week to share and for keeping us updated on everything & how things are continuing to go.
@Regmo
God bless you, Reg. I admire you for going to the library and for walks. You're so internally strong.

@purpleTree4652 Thank you purple. You are very kind.
@PoliteOcean
Hi, Ocean,
You're so inspirational, keeping up with your work outs and meal planning and hydration. Plus you go places like festivals. I used to enjoy those so much.
Hey Everyone~ Happy Weekend~.... How was your week and how are you doing today? I've been working on my last big final. I had the time for it since I'm not working. I worked on it most days for hours. It's finished, but I haven't submitted it yet. I'm ruminating on it to be sure I don't want to change anything first.
Also, I had a friend who was negative toward me. Nothing major, but I had to let him know that I wasn't interested in being as much in touch anymore. It was necessary, and so it lifted a weight I had been feeling.
🌺 This is our "4th & Final" Check-in for the month "APRIL"~.... This Month has again, truly flown by!.... What do you feel was your biggest Accomplishment for the Month?.... How would you Sum up the month of April for yourself? I hung in there and fought the good fight. Last week you asked about my losing the new apartment, too. Yes, since the new job was canceled, the new apartment complex did a 180. While they first approved my application and I was readying to move in, once my new job fell through, they declined my application. So I am still in my old apartment.
🌼 What are your "Feel Good Plans" for this Last Weekend and Week ahead of the month?.... In what ways will you care for yourself in positive and healthy ways? I'm not sure yet.
🌞 JUST FOR FUN:... You are going on a Vacation and can only visit "ONE" place that starts with the "FIRST" Letter of your "7cups Name"... WHERE are you choosing to go?!! Let's go to Paris!
🌺 What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?.... How were you able to work through your challenges?! I tried to look at the bright side of my new job falling through. I took advantage of the time off and relaxed. I let one person go, and worked on a new friendship. Life is heavy.
Thank you for asking these questions, Ocean.
@purpleTree4652
Hey there Tree!~
Thank you again for the lovely reply of support.. it’s greatly appreciated. After the pandemic & an injury instructing outdoors, I just got off the wagon for the longest time it seemed... I really had to take a break, & then inevitably climb my way back up to getting back into the groove of things again. And checking in here along with you all certainly helps keep me accountable for some things as well! You all Continue to inspire me too! As far as the festivals, I like going to the smaller ones. I’m not a huge crowd-goer by any means, but it does give me some great walking, activity & steps. And a nice way to break up the weekend. (Ps: I Never buy anything)! lol I just like to look and browse.
———-
I think it’s awesome that you have continued to work on and push through in getting your big final completed! Yay! .. I don’t blame you for taking the time to go over it before turning it in…. Take the time that you are allowed until you feel the best about it!
Wow , good for you on letting go of things that you felt no longer served you a purpose (including that negative friendship)! That can be a challenging thing for some people. So Good for you in knowing and realizing that it was time & necessary for you in order to thrive better & move forwards!
As far as the (job and apt), things will definitely work out and come through for you again with that. I know the “waiting part” is always a challenge. I get that for sure as I’m not the most patient person when it comes to waiting things out, but I am certainly big on Prayer! And HE knows our needs. And is Always on time for us.
(And woo hoo! Yes “PARIS” it is! Let’s go!!)
I think it’s wonderful that you took the time you needed to look on the bright side of things and also took time for yourself to relax! (As well as working on a “new” friendship)! Would love to hear more about that when or if you are ready to share. Until then, continue to keep up the great work that you are doing for yourself! All those smaller things add up to so much when it comes to our well-being!
And as always thank YOU for taking the time to simply stop by and share your week with us. And for letting us know how things are continuing to go. Please continue to keep us updated.
