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.

Me, just keep getting assignments done. Found some automated extensions for VS Code which has helped to get the code formatting so that if passes the validation. Waiting for the pages to update so I can see the changes. 

Need to do a picture for today and eat something. 

Hoping that the site is formatted correctly because I had planned to submit the assignment yesterday. I don't want to put it off another day.

@Tinywhisper11 the tech team moved all the folders to a new location and now it takes me twice as long for me to do practically anything. Renamed a file and it took three minutes for it to update. Actually I had to refresh the file before I could see the name change. Saving files is another story. That can take at least five minutes. May not seem like a lot but when you've got to get through around 120 every single day....

@IchooseLife79 well the CSS pages are validated and I got the main HTML page validated. I am actually a week past where I had wanted to be.

I only copied the code from the main page to my work email so I will have to fix the code to the other three pages when I get home but I spent entirely too long on this. 

That fact doesn't exactly make me feel intelligent. I mean, if this were an actual job situation, I couldn't spend over a week on something simple

I'm hoping this week will continue to remain status quo for me....there are a bunch of things on my plate but that is how I roll....I have added one more, purposefully....I signed up for an online course so I will be chipping away at that the next few months....its a study/complete at your own pace, as long as its done and you have tested within 180 days of starting.....I need to buckle down and spend some time doing it...I've spent about an hour each day this weekend and am about halfway through the first chapter of the book.....its going to be a long course, and it will not be easy, I'm sure.....

@IchooseLife79

I have enrolled myself in a Certified Personal Trainer course with an add on of Certified Sports Nutrition Coach through the National Academy of Sports Medicine online course.  I love working out and fitness and I'm not sure why I haven't done it sooner.  I am going to use it to bring in some extra cash when I retire in a couple years.....I'm thinking I will start off working at a gym rather than on my own, but we will see what happens....that is still a little ways away.....

I guess my goal this week is to work myself and the kids into our normal routines. It’s always so hard after any type of break. I do feel mostly better physically so that part should be ok. Mentally I am feeling unmotivated and overwhelmed. I have been enjoying not going out. I could do that forever, but I only have until Thursday!


I hope everyone is having a good Monday so far!💛

Getting back in the groove can be tricky sometimes. I'm like you, I'm kinda enjoying the downtime but stressing a little bit getting back in the groove too. But we can do it..... I hope..... Uggh....🤣

I'm glad to hear you're feeling better physically. That's great. 

Wouldn't it be awesome if we could hit the lottery and do whatever we wanted to do, still do responsible stuff But..... you know..... It would be so nice.😁

Feeling ok, I attempted to skip my Tylenol this morning (have been alternating Tylenol and Ibuprofen every 3 hours) and it didn’t go well. My mouth and jaw are still very sore. With the meds I am pretty comfortable though. Thank you for asking! 🙂

@IsayUncle yep I went and sat outside with my son for a hour yesterday😁 ❤ piggies are awsome, I'm trying to play with them and cuddle them like I normally do, I have the long haired one a bath😁 but I'm definetly overdoing it. I'm still to weak, I need to slow down and recover properly. But I'm ok ❤

And yep spooky day soon, I'm gonna  miss out on my spooky season art and crafts, but hopefully will be ok to do my Xmas art and crafts 😁❤

I just got home and getting ready for bed. I'm really glad you took care of the important stuff. Hugs to Joshua from me. That was wonderful that you were able to go out and sit with him. 

I think that was OK to overdo it a little bit on your first day back our first couple of days but you're right now and it's time to rest up and get your strength.

And got nothing accomplished today. 1 of 4 webpages are validated and three CSS files are good. I'm going to have to try and fix them at work if I can find the time since my job now takes twice as long as before since the tech department wasn't satisfied with where the data was housed. They moved it and now it's taking longer for simple things to process.

And, I'll have to pull background checks on new customers and ones who haven't been active for a couple of years. And the new month starts which means that the supervisors will be asking me where the daily reports are even though I can't do today's until tomorrow...

Spent like two hours trying to get the code validated at home which delayed my meal and now I'll maybe get 4 hrs of sleep before my alarm goes off which means I will be tired tomorrow when I have all that stuff to do...

@Tinywhisper11 I don't know either but since it's just me, I don't have a choice. Right now, I'm trying to figure out why the code I sent to my work email isn't the same as what I had saved.

It's okay though. I remembered my GitHub username so I was able to pull the code from there. Hopefully I can get it fixed after I get caught up with work.

----Sometimes I think if I slept less, I'd accomplish more but that would probably make me sick and I don't have time for that.

Have 108 reports left and one from to fill out. With it taking so long to save the spreadsheets, I've pasted one of the HTML code files into a site I found yesterday. It's called HTML online viewer. Free and it gives you a preview of how the page will look also explains the errors to where one can understand. Not like "attribute found at line 77 not allowed. Suppressing further errors".

According to the site, on my contact page I have an open tag. Doesn't say where but at least it tells me the type so I can at least look for it.

@IchooseLife79 well after using three different online tools and looking at numerous blogs/tech sites, I was able to get all the code to be error-free!

HTML is like a foundation and the CSS is more of an aesthetic. I have to tie it all in at home (hopefully that won't take me 2+ hours) and wait for the site to update. I'll need to get this submitted soon or else I'll get an email warning about lack of engagement.

@IchooseLife79 on that front, yes. But other things have given me more stress. Went through some mail I hadn't gotten to only to find that a medical bill will be going to collections. Was wondering why I wasn't getting payment confirmations. But, I recently made a payment and the account said current...

I thought that with the refund from financial aid, I'd be a little ahead. Apparently not.

@IsayUncle I had a response last night but my elderly cat wanted attention and I must have fallen asleep....

Things like this always happen. And I'm going to be delayed on the assignment even more because the navigation links aren't working. I'm getting a 404 error. I had the background and logo working for a bit plus a side menu bar (which could only be seen in dark mode for some reason). I'm definitely going to fail this because I won't have the time to do all the assignments. 

Guess it's just retribution for embarking on a folly to widen my skills.

Hardly anything I do seems to come out right.

@Enthenia

NO, Please don't think like that. Sometimes it's just 100% times harder than what we think. And then also, it seems to take so much more time than what we have.

Those things make us doubt ourselves. Don't doubt yourself.. You are strong, smart and amazing. It's better to face the reality that things are a little harder than you thought they're gonna take longer than what you anticipated. It's a whole lot better to realize that.

Take a breather, dig in, gear up and get ready to plan your next attack. the-avengers-marvel.gif

If "never failing" was an option, nothing would have any value.

I am really really sorry you feel so worn out and discouraged.

That could be nature's way of telling you that you have conquered many mountains behind you. For this one, you may need to regain your strength and restock your fortitude.

Whatever you do, don't doubt yourself. You are stronger than you know.

@IsayUncle And again I had a response which I completely wiped out because my fingers don't fit the virtual keyboard on my mobile.. My fault naturally.

I am taking entirely too long with this course. I'm like a month in and I still have 70% left to complete. I can't seem to manage the most basic of things. This actually happens quite a lot. Being totally inept I mean and one can't survive on that. 

And, I don't know if I'll have time to try and figure it out here at work because I'm behind since I had to redo a background report pull because of my inability to read names correctly...
