Aw man I'm sorry. Hope you feel better tomorrow and that the doctors appointments go well.

Whoo, that's awesome! And I wouldn't worry about her word choice. I agree with Harriet, if she had a problem, she'd tell you.

Yeah, of course. I love reading your guys' posts and seeing your progress. Thanks, I appreciate that. Thank you! *** Still tired and unfocused at work, though it was a little better today. Hopefully it'll go away by the end of the week and I'll be able to get more done. Anyway, had a doctor's appointment after work so didn't get a chance to do yoga like I'd planned, but I did have 1 serving of veggies and I revised a page-ish of chapter 2. I'm not sure I like the changes I made though so I may have to go back over it tomorrow. I didn't make huge changes or anything, just small tweaks, but anyway, hopefully I'll have a fresh perspective tomorrow. Now I think I'll go read some before bed. Also, has anyone had trouble with email notifications? I haven't gotten any in the last couple days which I thought was weird. Anyway, have a good night.

Aww cute puppy! And yay for all the wins!

Aw man, I'm sorry about the stressful day. I've been stress eating all the sugar too. *hugs* Hoping tomorrow is better for you.

Guess it would help if I looked at the second page LOL. I blame the tired. Anyway, nice job getting stuff done and getting in 2.3 miles! Doing good!

Yay for running! And nice on the surprise visit! Glad you were able to see them and catch up. Hope you were able to get everything on your list done today.

Glad you had a nice weekend! And I like the new approach to your goals.

Yeah, maybe I'll give it a try. Hopefully my boss doesn't say anything. *** Okay, so work the last two days was really quiet and not quite as busy either. Thank goodness, because I don't know that I'd have made it if it had been insane like last week. I wish I could say I was able to take advantage of the quiet and get caught up a little bit, but no dice. I was too exhausted and barely made it through both days. I did do my strength training workout yesterday, though. Just 2 sets, but at least it's something. I cooked dinner too and made sure to have 1 serving of fruit and veggies both days. That was as far as I got. No revisions, no reading, just mindless TV after work. Tried to go to bed early last night but one of my neighbors set off fireworks for almost an hour and thanks to the noise, I couldn't sleep. I'm hoping I'll feel better by tomorrow and I'll be able to get some revisions done. I hate how long it's taking me to recover from all the work stress.

Thanks you guys. Yeah, these people have no concept of boundaries whatsoever. Eh, doubtful. Something's gotta give soon though, because I don't know how much longer we can all go at this pace. Thanks guys. And yeah, that's true, it's just frustrating.

Thanks, overall it was a nice weekend. Yeah I think they could definitely benefit from one of those seminars, LOL. And it's mostly coworkers. I've mentioned it to my bosses before but they just keep telling me to answer every email as soon as they come in so it doesn't seem like I'm ignoring anybody. Which honestly is not very doable considering how busy we've been, so I just say "Okay" and move on and muddle through the best I can. And my bosses are the ones giving me (everyone, really) the extra work so I can't really complain to them about it LOL. You're not misreading, this place is not good for anyone's mental health right now (including the bosses). Unfortunately there's not much we can do about it. Thanks!! Very true, and thank you. Yeah it really sucked last week but luckily this week has been fairly quiet so far. Thanks! Yup, I agree. And LOL yeah that would be kind of awesome. I want to put a note in my email when people start getting pushy like that (you know, something that tells them that I'll get to their email within a certain time frame or something like that) but I don't know if I'd be able to get away with it. I tried putting myself on do not disturb one day and then got in trouble because we're not allowed to do that.

So I have not been very active on the forums so far this challenge. Hopefully I can change that this week. Anyway, Thursday was thankfully quiet at work. Barely heard from anybody, which was awesome. And then my boss sent out an email before I left for the day asking all of us to work over the weekend. Which, have to admit, made me kind of mad. I mean, it's a holiday weekend for crying out loud. I probably should have gone ahead and done some work, but I was exhausted and kind of fed up with it all, so I didn't. Also, it appears I'm not the only one having meltdowns at work. Some of my coworkers are as well. This is crazy. Am I the only one who thinks this is crazy? Let's see...Friday and Saturday I did absolutely nothing, which I'm happy about because it was a nice break, but also I'm kind of frustrated, because I have so much to do and I didn't do any of it. I just binge watched 2 TV shows and laid around like a slug. I did however take a "me" moment and painted my nails. I did a terrible job of it because I haven't done it in a while and I'm out of practice, and pieces have been chipping off all day today, but I'm glad I did it just the same. Also did 10 minutes of yoga and close to 30 minutes of walking. Anyway, today I tried to do all the things and instead did half the things. Started revising chapter 2 and I ended up cutting a lot and narrowing the focus and I think it's much better for it. I only really worked in depth on 2 pages but I kind of glanced at a few more pages and cut more stuff that doesn't need to be there anymore. It's better, I think, but we'll see once I'm done with it. Also did 3 loads of laundry, shredded a bunch of papers, and had a serving of fruit and veggies. And then I ran out of steam and have done nothing since. And all I want to do now is go binge watch mindless TV before bed. Which I think I may go do now. Thank you everyone for commenting and for the support. I'll respond tomorrow.

Loving the new bullet journal!

Yum, looks delicious. And great job doing the yoga anyway.
