**AND ANY & ALL "NEWBIES" THAT WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH US
🌞 This past week was standard for the most part... Last Saturday we got out & about, enjoyed the beautiful day & weather, took a drive, did lots of shopping, went to a Summer Festival, got some healthy take-out and enjoyed some good movies at home after~....On Sunday I got up & got a morning home-workout in, and then spent time in the Pool relaxing afterwards (as these summer days are dwindling away)... I stayed on track throughout the week with my workouts, meal-planning, hydration, activities, appointments & even Sleep goals!
🌴 Throughout the week I tended to some personal matters that upset my well-being a little bit, but I attempted to do as well I could to keep pushing through while I continue to work on things.... I also stayed on track with all my Group classes which continue to keep me accountable in getting in my workouts & step-goals each day... and I continued "early-morning" walks with the Furbaby before class times to "beat the heat"~...... Its continued to be really sunny & beautiful here, (and still hot). Yesterday (Friday), we again got out to another Local Summer festival. Although I was a little disappointed in that one because it barely had any vendors that I was personally interested in.~
🌊 For this weekend ahead, I have no real intentional plans.... But, I got up early this morning to start my day with a Zumba workout, will do some household chores, then get in some Pool-time for a bit (as again, these summer days are dwindling down fast), ... then wherever the rest of the day leads & takes me from there~ Sunday I will use that day to just relax a bit before the Upcoming week sets in.
@PoliteOcean Having James here has been catastrophic. My muscles are excruciatingly cramped because of emotional duress. I asked the AI chat bot if it's possible for my back muscles to snap my spine. It said no, it's not possible but it certainly feels like it. James has had 6 medical appointments here at the house. That's really inappropriate. This is supposed to be an independent living facility. Leslie is a narcissist and is blinded by James' money. Leslie's adult son Tai has a huge anger problem. I'm glad he likes me. Late Friday afternoon I got a new list of potential caretakers. Tunde won't be able to start working for me for another two weeks. He can only work 3 days a week but I want someone who can work 5 days a week. The last time I ordered groceries online Amazon Fresh charged my credit card instead of my food stamp card. I have no way of changing it.
@Regmo
It can be challenging when we have to be around someone we don’t care for, for whatever reasons… Despite your dislike of James it might be the best thing to try to place focus into the things that you like to do in the household before he got there, (If possible)… as that might help to cut down on some of your stressors if you try not to focus too much on what he’s doing or has going on…. It’s good that you are still getting lists of potential caregivers. Hopefully for you something pans out with one of them. However if you can’t find one for all 5 days do you think you will hire Tunde back on when he returns?…. As far as the Amazon Fresh situation, is there perhaps another avenue where you could shop to avoid that problem? Im not sure of all the fresh food deliveries as I’ve never used those, but maybe you could do a search if you haven’t already done so? Thanks for checking in this week and sharing. Continue to keep us updated on how things are going.
@PoliteOcean
🏖️ I don't have a most ideal vacation getaway. It's more how I feel when I'm on a vacation getaway and who I'm with that counts.
@communicativePond1728
⛱️ Yes agreed
@PoliteOcean
Hi, Ocean,
I sure hope everything is ok. I don't know if I should ask personal questions about what happened. But I hope all is going well.
Hey All~ Welcome to the Weekend~ How are you?.. How am I? That makes me laugh. My life is ploughing ahead like it always does. My class start this coming week. So I moved on the 8th. I started my new job on the 12th. And my classes start on the 21st. I decided to buy flowering plants on thursday. I also decided to rest today. What is something fun or positive that you could do for yourself this weekend ahead?! I've got to do little errands tomorrow and little tasks in the apartment. It's nothing major so I feel ok about it.
🌴 This is our "Third" Check-in for AUGUST~... We are officially at "Mid-point" of the Month~... Take a moment & take a deep breath, relax, & tell us What your week was like?.... What is something that you felt Achievement or Accomplishment in doing?! My week started off a little rough. I told you that I had a bad fall on the first day of my new job. Luckily I'm ok. The rest of the week at my job went well. The people I work with are nice and I love getting to work with all the library materials. I found a childrens book by M. Night Shamalan. It was super interesting. I liked it.
🌊 As we have been moving along on the Fast-track this year, we will soon be entering a New Month, a new season, & the Last part of the year.... Lets take a moment to reflect on the past 8 Months... Whatever it is, what is something that you feel you've learned about yourself so far this year?... In what way/ways do you feel that this "finding" serves a positive purpose in your life? This is a serious question. I'd like to think about it and come back to answer it later.
🏖️ JUST FOR FUN:... As we are still in "Summer-mode", WHAT would be your "MOST IDEAL" Vacation Getaway?! I picture myself on a long, lonely stretch of beach, walking and thinking.
🌞 What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?.... How were you able to work through your challenges?! I'm a still strugglin' and a highlightin'. lol I'm moving forward toward good goals, moving, working, classes. It has had it's struggles though, just being a lot to face and deal with.
@purpleTree4652
Hey there Tree 👋🏼~
Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind words as always. And you are always welcomed to ask me anything :) My pms are always open :)
———-
I can relate to your response (How are you), it seems like whenever I get asked that question myself, it’s like there’s some inner turmoil on exactly “How” to respond to that! lol
But gosh, you do certainly have a lot coming at you at once with the move, class starting & the job! But I Know that YOU are seemingly “resilient” in all that you’ve been through! And if anyone has got this, YOU do!... I’m so glad that you decided to rest today. I think you deserve that! And Im also glad you decided to treat yourself. Flowers & plants sure do brighten a home. I truly have Absolutely NO green-thumb whatsoever but admire those who do and can keep them alive!
It’s good to hear that you are still doing well from that nasty fall! And it’s so great to hear that things are going well with your job and that you are getting along with your co-workers! That definitely helps and makes going into work so much better! … The library is definitely a marvelous and interesting place to be! It’s so easy to “get lost” in all the materials there!
….ahhhh… I love your (ideal vacation response). It seems we are “Twinning” with the Beach!… It’s definitely easy to get lost in ourselves & in our thoughts while there.
I’m glad to hear that you are still continuing to move forwards (especially towards good goals!) despite the struggles of all the recent changes in your life. But again, as I always say to you, I’m going to say it again! Lol… (You’ve GOT This)! 🙌🏼 🙏🏼And you are winning day by day! Keep going! Dont stop! And keep up the great work that you are doing (and have always done)!
And Thank you as always for sharing your week with us. And please continue to keep us updated on how things are moving along!
@purpleTree4652
Ok, so here is my monumental answer.
Oh my gosh. This makes me want to cry…for a good reason. Just this month, I moved into an apartment that looks like a castle. It’s got vaulted ceilings and 4 ceiling fans and…it’s almost 300 square feet bigger than the last place I lived. It doesn’t have roaches, and the last place was infested with roaches. I have a big patio and very tall doorways. The bathroom is huge with a huge tub and a great shower. I’ve got lots of closet space and on Tuesday I’m having my own washer/dryer installed. It’s got those windows where the top is half a circle. They must be 10 feet tall. I’ve got a large patio with two sets of doors to it. And I can afford it. The people in the area seem mostly nice and classy. It’s got a peloton work out area in the gym, a pool, and a lake. I keep thinking someone is going to come and tell me I have to leave because it isn’t mine. I am starting my second year of graduate school. I can’t believe I made it through my first year with a 3.75 average. I am working in my chosen field. I’m just an assistant, but I am working with the professionals, and I’m learning so much. I did it! I am making it. Of course I still have 1.5 years of graduate school to go, but this month, I leapt forward in my life. I’ve been struggling all my life and this month, I did it. I can barely believe it. I’ve got a long way to go but this month I blew ahead lightyears. I can make it. I can do it.
@purpleTree4652
As I have responded to your above check-in, just as I stated there, THIS most recent response of yours just “re-iterated” why I call you seemingly RESILIENT!
Your apartment & new life sound absolutely amazing! I wish we were real-life friends so I could come visit you & see it for myself! Lolol … And we could celebrate you together! Girls night in, great movie or show, great food (& definitely relax by the pool for a bit)! 😂
Truly Tree it’s so awesome for you and YOU did it all by yourself! (And our Lord had his hand in it too of course)! 😉
Amazing Response Tree! And it’s only continuing to all come together for you! ❤️
@PoliteOcean
Challenge was me and my wife got Covid for the 3rd time.
Gòod thing was my parents brought over groceries.
Also shared my artwork with family and friends online,
Played piano.
@Swordpsalm
Hey there Sword!
Oh no! That sounds like that’s been very challenging for you & your wife. We hope that you both are on the mend! Speedy recovery to you!
That’s really great that you have family help that you can rely on while not feeling good! That certainly helps! And is very beneficial.
And it’s also great that you are able to stay in touch and do things that you enjoy online with your friends & family!
It sounds like you are hanging in there and doing the best you can. Keep up the great work. And thank you for sharing with us this week. Please keep us updated on how you are doing and how things are going for you.
@PoliteOcean
@KatePersephone
Hey there Kate!
Good to hear that you are doing well, having & enjoying what seems to be a nice relaxing weekend for you!
Good job to you on not only doing things you enjoy but also balancing things by working on some small tasks for yourself in recording your productivity & by creating a list for yourself on how to continue ahead without being too strict with yourself! Keep up the great work!
How fun to travel back to Greece for some beach time! Beach time is the best time (next to family time that is)! That would definitely be an ideal vacay! ..And on also getting to watch your movie. Sounds like a pretty deep movie to keep you awake like that! I may have to check it out myself! Sounds like despite being kept awake that you also thoroughly enjoyed it!
Thank you for checking in to share your week with us! Sounds like you had a great one! Please continue to keep us updated on how things are going for you.
