**AND ANY & ALL "NEWBIES" THAT WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH US
🌞 This past week went well (and again went by pretty fast)~ I pretty much had a standard week, stayed on track with my goals, kept up with meal-planning, hydration, & activities. And kept up with an appointment I had scheduled. I set a goal for myself to stay on track with everything for "Every" day in February with it being the shortest month, and I succeeded in that!... So I'm setting a new, Similar goal for March.
🍀 This week was supposed to be Milder and warmer.. but we only actually had "one" day of that, and it was last Monday. The rest of the week turned Colder here with rain throughout the entire week. I guess its Winter trying to still hold on, and get in its 'last hoorah' before Spring~ So only one day of Outdoor time this week.... But still managed to stay on track with all my Group Fitness & classes. Next week is supposed to finally be more Spring-like with temps.....
🌺 This weekend It will be milder again and thankfully no rain~ Intentions are to get up & get in a workout, and then run some last minute errands and enjoy the evening ahead... As we will also be celebrating TWO of my Family members birthdays and we will be having a double-party on Sunday for them.... So I'm looking forwards to that and spending time with them.... Since I met & completed my February goals, I intend to enjoy the weekend ahead in moderation, and get back on Track in the new week ahead and continue on with my goals for March.
@PoliteOcean
Hi, Ocean,
🍀 Hey Everyone~ Welcome to the Month of MARCH!~ How are you doing today and how was your week for you? It was up and down. I'm so glad february is over. I misread an assignment and could barely make the deadline. I have disability accommodations at the Univ. I have to send letters to the professors each semester so they know that I have a disability and am permitted extra days to make deadlines and extra days off. So I had to ask for extra days for an assignment. Instead of giving me those extra days my professor gave me 15 extra days to submit the assignment.
🌈 This is our FIRST Check-in for the Month~.... MARCH tends to be the month that many of us associate with a period of "Renewal", a New & Refreshed spirit & outlook, or even New & Fresh beginnings as we leave behind winter & look forwards to Spring, Sunshine & Warm days ahead.... WHAT are "YOU" looking forwards to the Most this Month ahead?!
Just getting through it and the warmer weather and the seeing the end of the semester, and springing ahead with our clocks. And I'm going to try to move. If I find a place I'll be able to look forward to that, too.
🌞 What are Some "New" Goals or Intentions that you'd like to Focus on, incorporate, or continue with in this Month ahead? I hope to move, so I'll be packing. Completing my assignments.
🌺 JUST FOR FUN:... IF You Had To Live in the "LAST" Movie that you watched and be roommates with the Star, WHAT MOVIE would you be living in, & WHO would your Roommate be?! I don't remember the last movie I watched, but I remember the last tv show that I binged. It was Narcos and Pedro Pascal would be my roommate. Aren't I the lucky one! 😍
🍀What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?! That's about it. I'm exhausted. I think this is the most I can answer.
@purpleTree4652 Keep up the good work purple tree. I'm proud of you. Thank you for your support. It means a lot to me.
@Regmo
Thank you, Reg. You've got! I'll support you the best I can.

@purpleTree4652
Hey there Tree~
That sounds like a challenge for sure In trying to meet deadlines… I do remember you saying that you were granted extra time with your schooling because of the disability.., so it’s wonderful that those accommodations are being made for you when situations like this arise!...
I too am quite looking forward to “Springing ahead” with the time change! … I think you have some great outlooks there for the month ahead. And How nice for you that you are looking to move to a new place?! That’s definitely something to look forwards to. Sometimes change is just needed with certain things and situations. Good luck on your search! And with finishing up your assignments.
We appreciate that even though you are feeling somewhat exhausted that you took the time to check in this week and let us know how you’re doing. Please continue to keep us updated!
@PoliteOcean
How are you doing today and how was your week for you?
I am doing okay but a little bit tired today for some reason. My week was okay. I just had alot to do last week. Like attending groups, taking my meds, talking to a counselor, going to my appointments, and being on 7 cups as a listener. I also got to go back to my house and spend some time with my family and my three dogs. Before I had to go back into the group home.
WHAT are "YOU" looking forwards to the Most this Month ahead?!
What I am looking forward to the most is making the most of my time at the group home and learn how to live more independently. Also I am looking forward to the staffing on March 11th that determines how long I have to live here.
What are Some "New" Goals or Intentions that you'd like to Focus on, incorporate, or continue with in this Month ahead?
Some of my goals that I have for this month is continue losing weight that I want to lose, getting back into exercising, and completing some of the trainings here on 7 cups.
One of my intentions that I have for this month is incorporating self care and treating my body with love and respect and knowing that I am also important and that I should take care of myself before I help others.
JUST FOR FUN:... IF You Had To Live in the "LAST" Movie that you watched and be roommates with the Star, WHAT MOVIE would you be living in, & WHO would your Roommate be?!
The last movie I watched was five nights at Freddy's. If I had to be roommates with one of the stars I would have to pick Elizabeth Lail. I barely watch movies. I am more into TV shows.
What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?!
One of my highlights of this past week would be spending quality with my family and my three dogs. When I was spending time with them I got to watch TV while I was eating and drinking my drink that I got from Starbucks. After I got done drinking and eating I gave tinkerbell a bath . Since my mom wanted me to wash her. Because she was turning light brown in places where she is supposed to be white and was starting to smell and plus I am Tinkerbells adopted mother. So I had to take care of her. After I gave Tinkerbell a bath I let her run around the house and let her dry off her own self. Which was funning because she was making a flood and soaking up the couch were people couldn't sit on the couch or walk around the house .
One of my struggles that I had this past week was trying to pay for my groceries and the machine wouldn't accept my debit card. After a while I had to get help from an attendant to see what was going on and why my card was not approving. The attendant told me that I should check out closer to where she worked at. So I had to pace everything back inside the cart. When I got to the other lane I was Happy that I didn't have to unload everything. Instead the attendant told the machine what I was buying and transfered the prices into the other check out Lane. After I clicked on the button to pay with card option it still wouldn't work. So I told her that I wouldn't buy anything since my card wasn't working. When I said that the worker decided that she was going to hold onto my things while I went to the bank to fix my card. But then I finally noticed that it was the wrong debit that I was using and was able to find my new debit card. After I realized that I was using the wrong debit card. My new card approved everything that I was trying to buy.
What is something that "YOU" want to talk about, add or share with us this week?!
This last past week I signed up as a listener and I passed the exam and the active listening test.

I think it’s awesome that you have some amazing goals for yourself this month. It’s wonderful that you are focusing on living a healthier lifestyle. As well as putting in some positive efforts in your personal life as well as here at 7cups. Self care, love, & respect are ALL amazing starts! And you are exactly right, that we have to start with ourselves first. And the better that we are for ourselves, the better that we can be for and towards others too! Continue to keep up the great work!!
How nice that you got to spend time with your family, (and Tinkerbell!).. while treating yourself & enjoying a great drink from Starbucks! Sounds like you had a nice (and fun) time & experience.
It’s great that you got the struggle with your bank card figured out and was able to get the things you needed! I think that part is definitely a highlight that you didn’t have to go without the things you needed.
Awesome job to you on becoming a listener here at 7cups! 👏🏼 Good for you! And we hope that you enjoy your experience here! We are here to support you! And please let us know if you need anything.
Thank you for checking in and sharing with us this week. And please continue to keep us updated on how things are going for you.
This past week was ok. I went out with my Mom. We had Chinese food, pastries, pasta, hamburger, potato salad, hash browns, donut and coffee.
I am going to start exercising every other day. I will use the treadmill and seated elliptical.
I weigh 171 lbs. now. My goal is 163 lbs. by Easter.
@AliceJasmine
Hey there Alice~
Thats good that your week was ok for you. And How nice for you that you got to go out with your mom for some good food! Sounds like you had a great time!
I think it’s awesome that you are going to focus on a healthy living routine for yourself by creating an exercise regimen! Your goal is an attainable one. And it sounds like you’ve got this! Keep up the great work.
Please continue to keep us updated on your progress and how things are going. We are here to support you.
Looking forward & things to focus on: finish a project at work that has been way too long overdue. Start applying for new jobs and opening new opportunities ahead. Women's day on the 8th of March! And a course I'm doing at the end of the month. Plus getting back to a strong exrecise routine and understanding better my diet.... I hope I don't have too much on my plate.
Roomates...? I'm done with it, I've checked that box already... Can't do it again.
Week: struggle to get back to work and my exercise routine.
@Suen00

Despite your struggles of the week it sounds like you will have a lot of highlights to look forwards too this month. Keep up the great work. And continue to keep us updated on how things are going for you.
@PoliteOcean Here is how the past week went. Sifa is so rude. I hate rude people. Leslie has done a good job of feeding me breakfast this past week. The last two weeks Tony was here he really dropped the ball on fixing me breakfast. I went to the library 4 times and went for a walk 4 times. Leslie's adult sons Tai and David, and adult nephew Junior were having a party in the morning on a weekday. That's really irresponsible. Leslie's 8 year old daughter Rachel had to use the toilet when Stuart left his fece stains in the toilet bowl. Sifa keeps the curtains open on the windows at night time in the ghetto. What an idiot. The good news is we've got about 60 rolls of toilet paper in stock. Tuesday I spent 30 minutes trying to login to my *** account at the library but couldn't get it done. Fortunately I went to a different library on Friday and was able to get it done. I hope to move out from Leslie's by May 30th.
@Regmo
Hey Regmo~ That’s good that Leslie finally picked up the ball and has done a better job with your breakfasts over the week. Hopefully for you it will continue… That’s good that you were able to get out and about so often throughout the week to the library and to get your walks in. Great job at getting in your activity…. It’s good that you were also able to have better luck accessing your account at a different library. And even better that you have a goal date to attempt to be out of Leslie’s soon. Please continue to keep us updated on how that is going. And thanks for checking in and sharing your week.

Get back on track for sure more moving with better weather. Less snacking in the evening too.
🌺 JUST FOR FUN:... IF You Had To Live in the "LAST" Movie that you watched and be roommates with the Star, WHAT MOVIE would you be living in, & WHO would your Roommate be?!
Well it would be a show Three’s Company totally … I am polyamorous so I have my hubby of 25 years and my two partners long term 7 years ..
🍀What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?!
My partner Rene had a stroke so it has been hectic February. . She is improving slowly. I support her daily as I can long distance through video calls and sent her care package. I may fly to visit her to help her with her recovery. Health is so important as we age.
🌈 What is something that "YOU" want to talk about, add or share with us this week?! ....WE want to hear from YOU!~
@SunShineAlwaysGrateful
Sounds like you’ve been experiencing some various matters recently that have knocked you off of your regular course and out of your routines. That’s totally understandable as “Life” happens.
But it’s great that you are ready to get back at it and making intentions with the better weather ahead! I personally admit it does make it easier to get out & about more and incorporate more outdoor activities.
And great job on getting back to your routines this week. 👏🏼 Keep up the great work. And thanks for sharing with us.
