Mom has been in the hospital but back home . turned down the nursing home, but we are having help come in and spend the nights. Not sure how that is going to work out. Feeling sad, losing my "job". Very emotional times, and dealing with the sis, who really does not want to continue to travel up and relieve me every few weeks or so.
Trying to keep up with the stepping. today, so far, 8,507. By the end of the day, I should hit the 10,000. My goal. I see Elaine is being the over-achiever! Wonderful. One busy lady.
Skimming back I see your gals are keeping busy! Great job. I will return!! :)

I didn't get into ancohort with my county because so many people applied. So I decided to go at alone. I submitted component 3 . My question is can I go ahead and register for component 1 or do I have to wait for the window to open back up?

Hello any teachers who read this. I am currently a student doing research about problems in schools and it would be greatly appreciated if you could fill out this survey to help me out

Thank you for helping make schools better
Men, your life is so full. How wonderful that DGS shows promise in running; our DD had a high school/college/post college running career, and it was an amazing time in her (our) life. With how well you take care of yourself, you'll be boosting your longevity big-time!

Yesterday I eeked out 12,178 steps with 3 walks; the last one with DH was a bit of a bust--lots of high water that we had to tiptoe through, and we were a bit disappointed that the mayflowers aren't out yet.
Today I have 10,603 steps in so far + a yoga class. It's hot and muggy--way too nice to stay indoors. There are two meetings on my horizon yet; otherwise, I'd be grubbing in the mud--ha! I have only 4 chapters left in my audio book: "Before we were Yours," a sometimes brutal story about the children (abused and many died) black marketed to adoptive parents in the Tennessee Children's Society Home during the 1930's. It takes my breath away. Maybe I should walk a few more steps--ha!
men52 Thanks, Elaine! I took it easy today like I said, for myself that is. I had to take my daughter to a couple appointments, met the school staff (there's only 7 of us!) for a luncheon, picked up my daughter after that, prepared supper, took the youngest to the fairgrounds for her mini 4-H workshop on insects, brought her home and took the fifth...See Moremen52 Thanks, Elaine! I took it easy today like I said, for myself that is. I had to take my daughter to a couple appointments, met the school staff (there's only 7 of us!) for a luncheon, picked up my daughter after that, prepared supper, took the youngest to the fairgrounds for her mini 4-H workshop on insects, brought her home and took the fifth grader to the high school athletic track to practice running a mile again. He qualified to run the mile at the school track meet this week so I have been taking him to the track lately.
I am really supporting him on distance running as he shows a lot of promise for cross country. He has the right body type, he loves to run and he's competitive. Fortunately this jr/sr high school's cross country is a very successful sport in the state and many kids get scholarships to Div I schools. That is his best chance at going to college financially. The youngest one is very well balanced in her activities and is strong in academics. I like to think I will still be around to see them going to post high school but like everything else, one never knows.
Anyway, although I took it easy, the whole day is over already. The rest of the week looks to be similar as the schools try to pack in a lot at the end of the year.
I hope to go on a special bike ride the community is organizing this week to commemorate the college student who was killed this month on his bike. I think I can fit it in.
Keep movin''

After a frustrating morning at the DMV, I took a long and lovely walk, followed by lovely and calming M&Ms.
