Jay-nee's journal

[jay-nee]

Well, I jumped on that bike last night for 20 minutes! And, it felt good. It was hard though... I really hope this charges the battery soon, I'd much rather ride "hills" than do a constant 20 minutes of a high level.

No rest for the weary, DM is coming (with dogs and parrot too) on Friday and staying through New Years to recover from total knee replacement surgery (scheduled for this Monday). So things are going to be NUTS!

So I really need to commit to this 20 minutes a day and not let our "revised" schedule muck with it. Plus, I need to get my eating in check again. Freakin' Halloween messes with me every year. I swear I gain 5 lbs and this year I only got into the candy on Halloween. What is probably happening, more likely, is that I start to ramp up my eating because it is darker and depressing and I am not as active either because it is dark by 5pm (!!!!!) these days...

Well, I need to jet for work but I have to work late so I figured I'd write early!

Happy Wednesday!

wow..your going to be busy!!!!!just think at least 20 minutes u can do it!!

Have a great day. Don't stress too much about your mother coming. It will be crowded with all the animals but the kids will probably love it.

 

[jay-nee]

to be very positive about the whole experience. Just worried lately...

BTW, I did my 20 minutes last night, so I hope I'm back on track. I've put on a couple of lbs since Halloween and I want to nip those in the bud. I don't want a couple to become 10 then 20 - so I am trying to keep things in check...

Happy Thursday all!

you can do it jaynee--i know things get tough, but hang in there!!

Well, today is the day that DM moves in with us. I'm actually feeling pretty good about it. Just wish she didn't have those dogs!

Well, I am trying very, very hard to get my eating on track. I am truly a sugar addict. Once I get a taste, it pulls me in. I guess it's like any addiction. NOT GOOD!

I think I have about 95% of my Xmas shopping done. Thank God for eBay and on-line shopping in general. I LOVE it! I really hate to shop and I really, really needed to keep the costs down this year. REALLY! But, I've done really well and what little I did put on a CC will be paid off when the bill comes at the end of the month! WAHOO for me!!!!

I did exercise again last night so I am up to 304 minutes so far for the Xmas challenge. Which I think puts me right on track for my exercise goal.

I am up for the Thanksgiving loose 5 challenge, but it's not looking good. I am trying though! I seem to be getting back on track and I feel good about my current direction in general so I'll keep plugging along.

Happy Friday ALL!

Hope things are going well with your mom. I know things are hectic for you, but don't forget to take care of yourself!

Hope things are going well for you and your mom is recovering from her surgery. Enjoy the time with your mom over the holidays.

Find some time for yourself and continue with your exercise. It can be a great stress reliever. Did you ever get your bike fixed?

Have a great evening.
