🎄 This past week went well... and thankfully it also went quickly~ Things for the most part were Status-quo... I mostly stayed Home indoors last weekend due to the colder weather we had... However I did get up & get out to my morning Zumba class last Saturday, & got in a home workout last Sunday.... And Most of the day on Saturday I was able to finish getting all my Christmas wrapping completed & done!.. And was then able to focus on relaxing in the evenings, and spending quality time doing other things I enjoy.
🎁 I was able to focus on the past week & staying on track with my goals & intentions, meal-planning/tracking, Group Fitness classes, etc.... And was able to have a very productive week afterwards getting in any last minute Christmas errands completed!.... The weather here took a much "Milder" turn thankfully on Monday to start the week, And I was Finally able to get back outdoors for walks with the Furbaby~ Which we thoroughly enjoyed together.~ I also was able to keep on track with Sleep & hydration. Which in turn I felt much better this week & was less tired than I was over the past few previous weeks. (Now to attempt in some way to keep that up with the Christmas holiday ahead)...
🎅 This weekend ahead, intentions are to get up & get in my Last Sat. morning Zumba class for this month (as well as this year)~ Then take on the day ahead by getting all those last-minute errands done and things I need for Christmas Eve (when my Son & his pup will come to spend the night when we do all our Christmas eve traditions).... But Sat evening, We may also try to attempt another last holiday Festival or at least a nice Holiday Light show as well (if there's time & we feel up to it).... Then Christmas day will be at my mom's home... It will be very cold again this weekend ahead & throughout all of next week.... And all Group Fitness class have been very limited due to the holiday... So I will have to do my best there to motivate myself where & as much as I can when needed.... I do intend to enjoy the Holiday (and dinners etc..) in full... but I also intend to stay on track with my steps & workout goals as well.~ It will be about making the time to balance it all out..... But I'm definitely looking forwards to a much "slower paced" week ahead (one where I can relax a bit more, spend quality time with family, & I don't feel like I'm flying around all day long)!
@PoliteOcean I'm writing this around 11:30 a.m. Saturday morning. I'm supposed to go to the library and then for a walk by the marina this afternoon. I'm not anticipating any disruption. Monday I cancelled my outing with Tunde because I was still recovering from my illness. I went for a walk twice and went to the library twice. I started my Madame Bovary study guide. It's very helpful but it doesn't have any questions. Sifa didn't know I was a chronic pain patient. It's incomprehensible he could be so idiotic. Does he think I'm here on vacation? Friday I put Argan oil on my feet. It's very nerve-wracking. Leslie's grandchildren come over here on a regular basis. It's so inappropriate. Leslie and Sifa change the baby's diaper while I'm sitting in the living room. It makes me want to throw up. 🤢🤢🤢 Amanda is a terrible mother. I'm was thinking that after I'm finished with Madame Bovary that I would get back to my vocabulary words. Now I'm thinking I should stick with reading. One of these days I want to start an in-person literature discussion club.
@Regmo
Hey Regmo~ Despite having to cancel your outing with Tunde on Monday, it’s good that you were still able to get out for a walk & to the library twice.. And hopefully you found no disruptions with your library trip & walk by the marina after writing this… It’s good you are finding your study guide to be helpful. Although I too would find it odd that it doesn’t have any questions if it is in fact supposed to be a study guide?!.. Also If people outside of Leslie are going to be in the house helping out, they should know of & be aware of the needs & concerns of those that are supposed to be living there… And with the type of home that Leslie is supposed to be running, her personal family members shouldn’t be there so often. It all does sound very inappropriate I agree... It’s good that you are focusing on possibly starting a literature discussion club. I can definitely see a lot of positive potentials there with that. Hopefully you can come up with a way to make that happen at some point. Keep up the great work… Thank you for checking in to share your week with us and continue to keep us updated on how things are going!
@PoliteOcean I would like to say to every one Happy Holidays
and Happy New Years
@Rose1324
Awww!!! Thank you so very much Rose! 🌹
We appreciate your kindness & friendship! And we wish you a wonderful & Merry Christmas & the Brightest New Year ahead!! ❤️🎄❤️🎉❤️🎁❤️🎊❤️🥳
@PoliteOcean
This past month was a bit stressful with finals so I haven't been able to take much care of my health. However, now this school is over I have a bit more time to think about myself and get into better routines again. Hopefully I can solidify them before the next semester begins so I don't fall out of them again!
I'm hoping to exercise more and make healthier food for myself.
@freshRabbit5716
Hey there!
So sorry to hear that the month has been a stressful one for you. But we are glad to hear that things have calmed down some for you and that you now also have a bit more time to think about & focus on yourself and your overall wellbeing! That is so very important.
And We do hope that while you have this extra time that all your goals & focuses come into place for you that you are striving for! And that you find your routines again with exercising & making healthier food for yourself!
We are here to support you and your efforts! And we thank you for checking in to share with us!
Please keep us updated on how you are doing!
@PoliteOcean
Hi, Ocean,
How has your week been going, & what is something that you are looking forwards to this weekend ahead? Well, I spoke to an attorney. They seem interested in my case. I have an appointment with their intake coordinator on Monday.
🎁This is our "THIRD" Check-in for the Month of "DECEMBER", & CHRISTMAS is almost upon us~.... How are you feeling, & are you coping with any last minute Holiday stressors?... How are you taking care of yourself during this time in a "Healthy Way"? ... And what are your Hopes or Plans as we enter the Holiday week ahead? I'm ok about Christmas. I have two days off and will look forward to spending it with my kitty, Chloe. I'm still spending a lot of time in bed because I'm still sick. My hopes are that they will take my case, and that we'll win. But I'm not getting my hopes up.
🎅As We get ready to enter the last 'full' week of December, & ponder on the New year ahead, What do you feel is something that has changed for you & your life for the "Better" this year?

@PoliteOcean
Hi, Ocean,
I pressed the post button accidentally. So here are the test of my answers.
As We get ready to enter the last 'full' week of December, & ponder on the New year ahead, What do you feel is something that has changed for you & your life for the "Better" this year? I've started working for libraries, which is my upcoming career.
🎄JUST FOR FUN:.. Name "One" Christmas (Holiday Word, Song, OR.. Movie) beginning with the FIRST LETTER of your "7cups" Name! ... (Mine is "Poinsettia")~ ..... I dunno. How about Peace?

🎁What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?.... How were you able to work through your challenges?! Well I was sick all week. I took off 3 days and I've been sick for over a week. I finally called the lawyers.
@purpleTree4652
Hey there Tree~,
That’s good for you that you were able to speak with a Lawyer about your situation. And Even better if they seemed interested in what they were hearing… Hopefully for you that you will hear something positive on Monday. Definitely keep us updated on how that goes!
It’s also a positive that you are doing & feeling ok with the upcoming holiday week. While also looking forwards to having two days off & spending time with Chloe as well as getting in any rest that you need... It Sounds like a nice, quiet & cozy holiday week ahead for you & Chloe.
I love the word you chose “Peace”…. Just saying that word can bring you a few moments of calm~ Great choice!
I think despite all the craziness surrounding your recent issues with your job, that’s it’s great you were able to see a positive outcome for yourself this year (by being able to work & finding a job doing what you are working towards & striving for).
Also despite not feeling the best recently, it’s good that you were able to take some time off to allow yourself to continue healing and that you were able to find time to deal with that lawyer. (You definitely weren’t playing around with that part!) you said it and you did it.. good for you.
And Please definitely let us know how talks with that go & workout. Good luck. And thanks for checking in to share your week.
🎄Hey Everyone~ Welcome to the weekend~ How has your week been going, & what is something that you are looking forwards to this weekend ahead? This week I did a lot of putting off and procrastinating....a lot of things got the "this seems like a 2025 problem" and pushed to the back burner....I can see myself doing the same for the two days I'm working next week. I have to work Christmas Eve and Christmas day next week then I'm off until New Years eve......
🎁This is our "THIRD" Check-in for the Month of "DECEMBER", & CHRISTMAS is almost upon us~.... How are you feeling, & are you coping with any last minute Holiday stressors?... Last minute stress is always there. I have a feeling, each year, that I'm not doing enough for my kids families and grandchildren.....I feel like I need to give more, more, more....more of my time, more gifts give more money...I do this each year on Christmas and on birthdays....I know its something I need to work on, but don't know where to start.... How are you taking care of yourself during this time in a "Healthy Way"? I'm status quo with taking care of myself in a "Healthy way" ... And what are your Hopes or Plans as we enter the Holiday week ahead? My hopes and plans for the Holiday week are to just relax once I get through the 2 days at work....My girlfriend and I have a "Harry Potter Movie Marathon" each year between Christmas and New Year where we watch all the movies....
🎅As
We get ready to enter the last 'full' week of December, & ponder on
the New year ahead, What do you feel is something that has changed for
you & your life for the "Better" this year? This year, I've started to make plans for my future.....doing things to make sure I'm all set when I retire....March of 2027 seems like a while away, but it really isn't....
🎄JUST FOR FUN:.. Name "One" Christmas (Holiday Word, Song, OR.. Movie) beginning with the FIRST LETTER of your "7cups" Name! ... (Mine is "Poinsettia")~ ..... "Christmas Vacation"
🎅What is something that "YOU" want to Talk about, Add or Share with us this week?... WE want to hear from YOU~ I was reminded this morning that, despite all that I have been going through, all the things I feel are not going the way I want, going wrong, in my life, I really do have a lot to be grateful for. While I go into the "why is this happening to me?" mode quite a bit, there are people out there who have it worse. Sometimes we get so tied up in our own things we forget.....I once was told that "just because someone has it worse than you do, doesn't negate or make your issues invalid".....while this is true, I can't but help to think that maybe sometimes I'm being petty.....So this Christmas, I will continue to try to be grateful for what I have.
