Weekly sharing of Goals! Week #17 2024 (Monday 04/22/24 - Sunday 04/28/24)
I welcome anyone to commit to a goal here today.
But importantly, talk about getting it done..... or why it didn't happen yet.
To praise each other for our efforts and wins.
While supporting each other through trials and setbacks.
And to continue trying and not give up.
Remember:
Every Goal should be considered "Worthy".
Never belittle your achievements and be proud of yourself for your daily accomplishments!
Whether they be Complex or Simple.
Getting out of bed is a good day..... Good job I say!
Share your goals today, for support and encouragement.

THIS IS WEEK #17!
I think we all have been working very hard.
@IsayUncle wow! This year is flying by. And um.*coughs* my name isn't on the tag list *cough cough* 😁❤happy monday uncle ❤ happy Monday everyone ❤ so my achievement today, well I ate some soup ❤ which is good cause I haven't felt well enough to eat the past few days. I actually have a Easter egg I still haven't eaten 🤔🤔 I should probably throw that out.😁 I hope you all have a great day, and a great week ❤❤
@Tinywhisper11
ummm, ermmm, ooops no excuses. next week for sure! Don't eat old eggs. They make you stinky farts.🤣...
Good job on the soup. Are you able to cook and make your own foods? We have to eat good stuff because it's good for us but it doesn't show up as easily as the satisfaction of eating junk foods. yum yum.
@IsayUncle stinky farts 😂😂😂😂 no I can't safely use the oven and stuff. I'm not even allowed to make my own coffee. They say pouring boiling water is to much of a risk, which is kinda true. But here at the nursing home, we have chefs😎 yep! That's right I'm treated like a princess😁❤ I did some art today😁 I haven't done any in a while. I haven't finished it yet. I'm making it for my son ❤❤ and what about you? How's your day so far???
@Tinywhisper11
YEP because You are a Princess! Does anyone in your nursing home have their own kitchens and the ability to cook? It would be nice if you could make your own pop tarts. If you can do your own art the way that you do it I don't see why you couldn't make a pop tart or two.
So we're learning a little bit more about each other. How old is your son and I'm guessing he is in an Adopted/Foster home? How often do you see him?
If i'm ever being too nosey just burp through your nose and send me this icon 
And what kind of art project are you making for him. I hope you get it finished up today. Or I should say I hope you're feeling well enough to get it finished today.
Today was kind of a crash and burn day for me. I had a series of unfortunate events the past few days. But I did forget to tell you my vroom vroom is running. It's a beautiful day outside and I should be working but I broke my backhoe at the job yesterday and it's gonna cost about $700.00 to get fixed. It's in the shop right now and it should be done today.
And then also, kind of messed up the job by making a mistake and things like that have a way of dampening ones spirit.
Every cloud has a silver lining and mine this morning is having time to talk to you. I kind of slept all morning so I better try to start my day.
You didn,t eat that old egg, did you?
@IsayUncle 😂😂 hey! Ladies don't fart.. We simply spray bum perfume😁 what are pop tarts?? We all have a small kitchen area in our rooms, most have bought microwaves and kettles and things. There's room for a fridge and there's a sink and stuff. But we have chefs so most people don't do any cooking. I wasn't well enough to finish my art project, hopefully tommorow ❤ my son is gonna be 13 years old in July ❤ tw - death, he's in heaven now, my owners didn't let him live very long😥 oh wow £700 is a lot of money, and mistakes happen, but it does bring you down I know, bless you ❤ maybe you should rest for a day or two, relax, eat icecream😋 just chill and have a giant tiny hug ❤❤ squeezes you tightly ❤ I hope you find your smile soon ❤❤ I love you ❤
@Tinywhisper11 hopefully this will cheer you up 😁
@Tinywhisper11
You make me laugh! That boy has some moves! 
@IsayUncle 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Tinywhisper11
You are 100% right, my mistake. Especially a princess like you. Pop tarts is the brand name of these large type breakfast cookies I guess. They're not very good at all but for some reason as kids everyone likes them. Very dense dough with a thin layer of fruit in the middle and a hard icing on the top. They are to be served warm and were designed for a toaster and that's why they're called pop tarts for when the toaster pops up.
That is wonderful for you to keep your sons spirit alive.💙💗💚 
When you speak with him, remind him you are loved and being cared for now and he should follow your example up in heaven, even though he's found his peace, he's watching over you closely.
When you say "my owners" do you mean "ex-owners"?
@IsayUncle wow! Pop tarts sound pretty gross😝😂😂 yes ex owners ❤ my carers put a cross for joshua (my son) under the willow tree in the garden. My favourite thing to do is sit outside and watch the sunrise and just talk to him and God ❤❤ how are you feeling today? Have you found your smile yet??? Let me know if you need more cheering up ❤
@Tinywhisper11
Thanks. I do have to find my smile again. 😶
@IsayUncle 🤔🤔🤔 have you looked in the washing machine, you never know what you might find in the washing machine😁 would you like to talk about it?? I'm always here for you, i have some nice shoulders to cry on ❤sometimes venting can really help clear your mind ❤ gives you a giant tiny hug ❤❤squeezes you tightly ❤❤ trys to make you smile
@IsayUncle
Just to say hi. I hope everyone is well. It's a very busy week, so just want to say hi. Have a great week everyone.
Check in
I got dressed this morning for my Live Poshmark even though I wanted to crawl back in my comfy bed. I'm going to go to the gym too it's my 5th day and I feel good afterwards
@compassionateCar7091 yaaay well done ❤❤ I did 5 laps around the gym myself today😁 maybe tomorrow I'll even go in😂😂😂😂😂😂
sorry I make alot of jokes 😁 but really well done you ❤❤
@compassionateCar7091
Hey again, good to hear from you, thanks for checking in. That's good, you got up and going, the hardest part sometimes.
I had to look up poshmark. What an interesting website and marketing tool. How did your live seminar go? Were you able to sell a few things?
WOW! 5 days steady to the gym. Thats great
it does feel good too afterwards so stay at it.
Hey hey everyone! Hope this week has found everybody doing ok. Took a break from cups and just popped in
This week has been super busy. Got accounts closed and an estate account opened. Paid off my father's out standing IRS debt (Uncle Sam always wants his money 😂) slowly but surely reaching the end - thank god 😅 moved some hay and made room for another load to come this weekend
@mytwistedsoul
Hay hay back at you.... no pun intended, well, maybe sort of.
Good to hear from you. Especially about the estate stuff, and paying off your father's outstanding IRS tax. That has got to be a load off of your shoulders. WOW, so very happy for you. Freaking awesome job done there! That has been a tough road to ***, but you persevered and are nearing the end. Be proud of yourself and stand tall.
The farm work never ends does it? Do you use hay or straw or both. How many bails or rows do you go through?
@IsayUncle Lol! Puns can be - well - punny 😁
@mytwistedsoul ooooo! Plum tree 😍 I used to have a peach tree, but it was stolen😥 I was peachless😭😭😂😂😂
@Tinywhisper11 *smh* 😂😂 that was a good one! I ap-peach-iate your sense of humor 😁 😂
@mytwistedsoul
*h. o. e.*
I like that saying and any gardener farmer to know how true it is. But if done right the fruits can be plentiful
@IsayUncle if you can't be the smartest tool in the shed... Be the h.o.e! 😂😂😂😂
@mytwistedsoul wow! That's a very busy week! I wondered where you'd gone, I miss you when your not around ❤ gives you a giant tiny hug ❤❤squeezes you tightly ❤
@Tinywhisper11 *hugs you back just as tight* I missed you too ❤️❤️
@mytwistedsoul don't ever leave me again😩😩
@Tinywhisper11 awww I try not to but I'm like a bad penny and always turn up 😂
@mytwistedsoul oh no! I wasn't prepared for this 😱😱😱
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Tinywhisper11 It's kind of hard to prepare for being duct taped to a wall 😂
@mytwistedsoul 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sometimes I can look and see that things are good for me but for some reason I can't generate energy from that. Especially when things go wrong. When things go wrong that's when we need the most energy but usually, for me, I tend to shut down and make things worse.
The good thing that's happening is the possibility for me making good money is 100% but the bad that is happening is that my partnership is not gonna work out and I gotta end that today or very soon. I got this cloud over my head for not being able to forgive or discuss things with my ex and my niece that I have a broken relationship with. even though my business has the potential of making good money, I am currently in the hole and then I just messed up a big job and broke my back ***. I picked up 3 stray dogs but I haven't had time to hunt the home for them so it looks like I'm stuck with three dogs. They are pretty awesome dogs though but six dogs is way too much. I'm losing track of my core balance, my arms ache and pain, I got doctors and physical therapy appointments I can't keep up with, end up going from 262 lbs to about 272 lbs which is very stressful for me. I can't find the time to shop, cook and eat right.
It's time to dig deep and fight hard.
Be in town by 8:00 AM, withdraw $1000 from two bank accounts which will bring those bank accounts close to empty just to pay for my broken backhoe. 8:15 AM to 8:30 AM go talk to the health inspector about how I messed up on that septic system and see what our solution is gonna be. (worried, stressed). Pick up some grocery essentials while I'm in town. 9:30 to 11:00 - go pay for and pick up my backhoe. The welder that fix my backhoe said he might have some work for me to do there today to help work off some of that expense so that's good but he so overcharged me on the work that I feel like I'd be working for free anyway. But most of all of that was my what or not getting this price specifics to begin with......
If I do some digging for him, I can't plan too much ahead of that because I don't know how long that's gonna take but on my way from there I will probably stop and drop off my backhoe on the other job that I'm working at and get that unloaded.
On my way back from there, I should stop by and try to finalize things with my soon to be , ex-partner. And if I have time after that, help a young high school student pressure washer to his house.
I had all this stuff to do yesterday and all I did was lay around the house and absorb drudgery and dread so I can't do that today.
Step one - get dressed! (do everything today with focus, purpose and urgency)
@IsayUncle 🎶🎶 something's in life are sad, they can really make you mad, other things just make you swear and curse, when your chewing on life's grizzled don't grumble, give a whistle and this will make things turn out for the best. 🎶💃💃💃 I'm sorry your relationship is not working out 😟but you gotta do what's best for you ❤❤ when one thing goes wrong it's so easy to spiral downwards, but when it's a few things well it's not easy. Throws you a tiny rope, and pulls you out of the hole. It's ok to lay around and feel sorry for yourself sometimes. I do that more than just sometimes😁 I'm so glad and proud of you for opening up about your feelings and issues here ❤ you support so many people, you deserve all the love and support back ❤ I'm never far away, I'm always just a tag away if you ever need me ❤ gives you a giant tiny hug ❤ I love you ❤and yeah! 6 dogs! Damn! Wrapping some up and giving them to people as birthday gifts, seems your best option there😁
now let's get you motivated.... Gimme a u gimme a n gimme a c l e, what does that spelll... Uncle goooo! Uncle
@Tinywhisper11
You make me smile. Really really big! 
@IsayUncle 😂😂😂😂😂 that is one creepy big smile😂😂😂😂😂😂 I'm glad you found it. Was it in the washing machine after???
@Tinywhisper11
You are such a smarty pants.😁.... no, it was not in the washing machine....... ummm erm, in the dryer.😝
@IsayUncle in the dryer!?! What kind of fool looses their smile in the drye.... I mean yaaay! Easy place to loose it 😁
@Tinywhisper11
better than losing it in the wetter! omg... horrible. 😖😂
@IsayUncle Oh man 😕 I'm sorry things are so hectic right now for you. You definitely have a very full plate! It sucks so bad when people over charge for work like that. Alot of times I think they do it on purpose because they know we're desperate to get our equipment back in a timely fashion because we depend on it
You guys are all just too much.
Thank you ALL for the real and the wonderful
SUPPORT!
@IsayUncle
I want to eat healthier this week and try to stay positive :)
@heavenSun3877 you can do it ❤❤
@cloudySummer
How's things? Did you see the Athens red sky Sahara dust phenomena? I saw it on the news this morning and thought of you and your poor windows.🤣😒
Hello all! My goal today is to Read and analyze the research I conducted. There are 5 PDFs in total, and quite a thick stack. After that I need to compose a literary analysis of 3 of the PDFs.
By Monday I must write an essay based upon that research. My goal with this research is too bring notice to the criminalization of our LGBT communities in various countries and the disrespect of their basic human rights, and what we can do to implement change.
Encouragement would be much appreciated!!! If you believe in prayer, than please pray I meet my goals!
@RisingPhoenix1987 by monday😮😮😮 oh no! Quick start now!!! Says a little prayer to help you along ❤ and a great topic for an essay, well done ❤❤ don't worry you'll get it done in time, I believe in you ❤❤
Thank you!!! 😊 Yes I know, I don't have much time. Oddly I do my best writing when I'm closer to the due date. For some reason the pressure is motivating, if that makes sense LOL 😂😅 !
@RisingPhoenix1987 if it makes sense to you, then that's all that matters😂😂. How you getting on so far?
I have gone through 1 of the articles yesterday. Today I'll go through the others. And work on the literary analysis in conjunction with each article I get through. And of course I keep my late mother's advise on my head..."if it starts to feel overwhelming step away, and come back later." I'm glad she left me with that piece of wisdom!!!
@RisingPhoenix1987 awww your mother was a very wise lady ❤ now a wide angel looking after you from above ❤❤ yes nothing is worth risking your mental health for, so take breaks and drink coffee. Good luck sweetie ❤ we are right here for you ❤
@Tinywhisper11 wise angel* not wide, damn! Autocorrect
@RisingPhoenix1987
For sure , YOU GOT THIS! Stay at it. Sounds like a lot to me but I think you got it. 
So now I'm working on my third assignment. I have to code a program that shows my name, pictures, a favorite food and a specialized font. Right now, I'm getting the software set up to get the code in. After this assignment, I will have two more assignments and then the course will be completed.
@Enthenia
Is this in JAVA script?
It seems that you are getting more comfortable with your assignments.
@IsayUncle actually it's just Java. Jacascript is different and deals with webpages. I won't have that for a couple of classes yet.
I don't know about being more comfortable with it or not but I've been trying to keep up with the phrasing of the programming language.
I've also been working on practice questions for the COMP-TIA+ exam (which is technical and confusing) but I haven't gotten past 47% which is not enough to pass.
@Enthenia
Thanks for teaching me something. I didn't know there was a difference between Java and JavaScript.
I looked up COMP- Tia+ or Comptia and that looks like a great learning venue. I think it's wonderful that you are involved with that organization. It looks like you have time to improve, stay at it.
Your third assignment sounds like a good advancement. I hope you get your code right for the requirements like your name and your food, font, picture and etcetera. YoU cAN Do iTTTTT!
Does this particular course have a title, name or designation? Will you get a certification when you finish it?
btw.... I start a fresh thread every Monday. Would you like to be added to the tag list?
@IsayUncle I think it's called Intermediate Java Programming. I don't get a certificate because it's part of a degree program. The Comp-Tia+ test will give you a certificate sort of like taking a test to get a real estate or insurance agent license.
You can put me on the list but I might not always catch it.
@Enthenia
Heeeyyyy, L👀K at You go. It was only several weeks ago that you didn't know if you could ever get this JAVA programming down. NOW.... You are taking intermediate and I mean intermediate courses. That's after working your way through computer problems, program problems, software problems and then dealing with work and now studying and learning more and more.
WOW... WOW... WOW... HOLY COW! Color me impressed.
btw, no worries if you don't catch the tag, just makes it easier if you have the time and plus I love hearing about your journey.
@IsayUncle well I had to email the oeodessor because I can't get the output I'm supposed to get even though it says successful.
I don't know about improving. I'm still looking at the works of others and code examples.
Now I'm appeasing a dog who let me try to figure something out for two hours (& I didn't get it figured out...)
@Enthenia
Happy Dog....
You let me know when you figure out that problem you've been working on for two hours. Let me know if you get it or if you have to give up on it.😕..... Don't you give up on it! 😅
@IsayUncle I can't give up. It would affect my grade. I might search for a solution at work tomorrow.
