OK, SF.
How is your new start?
I'm still coughing my head off.
The good thing is very little appetite.
Bad thing is no real exercise.
Daylight savings coming soon and no excuses, right?!
Let's get super fit for summer?
You in?!

Hi SF!
I see you are making plans for a vacation!
Do tell...
I need to get serious about cycling so I'll be ready for my trip out west in June.
Hard to get motivated to ride when it's so darn cold outside and it's dark before I get home from work.
This weekend--I'll do it!

Hi SF,
Just popping in to say hello and that I hope things are going better for you.
I got the flu in spite of having had a flu shot--bummer!
I'm better, but not yet back up to speed.
Thinking about ya, Spark Friend! Hang in there--spring is on the way!

Sunflowers,
So sorry to hear that you had a rough week--between being sick and then your unexpected trip, you have had a lot on your plate.
I hope things go better this week--just know I'm thinking of you and sending you the best.
TM

Three more semesters left in your career?! As we say in the south,
"YOU LUCKY DAWG!" What are your plans after retirement? So weird for me to be building a career at this age...I will try to build in fun things while I'm working. Creating that balance is a challenge, but most things are.

Like you, I struggle with food. Hardest thing for me when things are stressful. When I was most successful, I planned and prepared my food for the whole day, recorded it and stuck with it. I have been winging it these days, and I know that's the problem. Also, my hospital got an Au Bon Pain and it is so inviting and hard to resist that little place of refuge. I will not throw in the towel though!
