RES Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 I'm baaaaaaaaaaack!!! Now that the season is over I have maybe two more minutes to my day than I did previously I have two new fur babies for those of you who do not follow the battle log or me on Facebook...I'll bore you with pictures later So far this off season the schedule is looking a tad bit heavy... Sunday 9/16 - Pagan Pride (which is why I'm late posting this!) Tuesday 9/18 - Pride planning meeting (I'm on the board this year, because I have nothing else to do?) Saturday 9/22 - Movie night at the ball field! (work, but still fun!) Sunday 9/23 - I will be tailgating in one of the Jags new cabanas...also work related outing but still fun! Tuesday 9/25 - Pride planning meeting Wednesday 9/26 - Sponsorship dinner (work) Friday 9/28 - Pride Volunteer dinner/meeting (because I'm in charge of the volunteers) Saturday 9/29 - Painting with a Twist fundraiser Tuesday 10/2 - Pride planning meeting Friday 10/5 - Pride Sponsor Appreciation Party Saturday 10/6 - Pride parade Sunday 10/7 - Pride festival Sunday 10/28 - Evergreen Pumpkin Run 5k Saturday 11/3 - Florida Brain Tumor Walk Saturday 11/3 - First Coast AIDS Walk Saturday 12/1 - Girls on the Run 5k Saturday 1/12 - Best Damn Race 5k That's just this challenge! I'll post the rest later...since I am at work right now So this challenge will be getting through all of that without going off the rails entirely...the rest of my challenges will be: - Continue eating as I have been, down 18 lbs so far! My goal is to get under 200 this challenge, even if its only 1 lb - Start working out again, this got sidelined during season since I wasn't going to build new habits (even if I'd had them prior, it was still starting over again) my wife has the second bedroom looking like a construction project but no reason I can't use my PiYo videos in the living room....since I have one now . I want this to be habit and second nature again. - Get to the gym! My job is giving (yes, as in free) us year memberships to Bailey's Gym starting October 1st. They offer classes and a wide variety of items and are right around the corner from me (I could ride my bike!! ) At least twice a week after this starts. - Pay off 'one more' thing...I've started 'snowballing' our debt to try to get it eliminated. I had this done for the most part then we bought the house, and everything we needed for it, etc...happened and it got a bit out of control for this accountant I've got everything compiled and have started the process, just need to continue working it till it's all gone. Then I'll tackle the student loans, one elephant at a time. No worries, in true RES fashion I have 5k's scheduled, they're just later on so I'll add them to the list at some point... I realized that I have a little over a year before I hit a huge milestone in life...a lot of goals I want to hit before then, one of them is weight/health related, the other being life/debt related. Time to really get busy on this. 4 Quote RES...and I want to live days worth dying for Current: RES: Still in the Struggle Spoiler Really Eclectic Scorpio, Level 79 |1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12|13|14|15|16|17|18|19|20|21|22|23|24|25|26|27|28|29|30|31|32|33|34|35|36|37|38|39|40|41|42|43|44|45|46|47|48|49|50|51|52|53|54|55|56|57|58|59|60|61|62|63|64|65|66|67|68|69|70|71|72|73|74|75|76|77|78|79|80|81|82|83|84| | My Character Page | Tracking Spreadsheet | My Blog | Growth happens when you care more about the well being of your future self than the comfort of your present self!

Things got a little crazy there...Not a whole lot of action on the challenge front, probably won't be until after Pride (next weekend, I believe I'll make it ) since most of my evenings right now are taken up with other things, work and Pride related, and I'm generally getting home to fall into bed! I will attempt to do better at checking in here though 2 Quote RES...and I want to live days worth dying for Current: RES: Still in the Struggle Spoiler Really Eclectic Scorpio, Level 79 |1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12|13|14|15|16|17|18|19|20|21|22|23|24|25|26|27|28|29|30|31|32|33|34|35|36|37|38|39|40|41|42|43|44|45|46|47|48|49|50|51|52|53|54|55|56|57|58|59|60|61|62|63|64|65|66|67|68|69|70|71|72|73|74|75|76|77|78|79|80|81|82|83|84| | My Character Page | Tracking Spreadsheet | My Blog | Growth happens when you care more about the well being of your future self than the comfort of your present self!

RES Posted September 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 What a week! My eating has really suffered with everything going on, fundraiser in a couple hours to go to, at least I'll be home tonight to cook! Tomorrow we're going to dinner with my sailor and his girlfriend (they pulled in cause the boat was 'broke' as he put it , gotta love the phrasing) I'm beginning to see the end, pride is next weekend then I'll get a day off to recoup (took a vacation day from work) adding to that my assistant is off this week for vacation..so yeah what the hell was I thinking? Fiscal year end close, month end, and pride...this will be me this week Last weekend was fun...I thought it was a tailgate pod but it was a cabana instead! My view from the deck...SO much fun!! and as promised...kitties!! 5 Quote RES...and I want to live days worth dying for Current: RES: Still in the Struggle Spoiler Really Eclectic Scorpio, Level 79 |1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12|13|14|15|16|17|18|19|20|21|22|23|24|25|26|27|28|29|30|31|32|33|34|35|36|37|38|39|40|41|42|43|44|45|46|47|48|49|50|51|52|53|54|55|56|57|58|59|60|61|62|63|64|65|66|67|68|69|70|71|72|73|74|75|76|77|78|79|80|81|82|83|84| | My Character Page | Tracking Spreadsheet | My Blog | Growth happens when you care more about the well being of your future self than the comfort of your present self!

Mistr Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Awwwww, the kittens are super cute. Looks like they are getting along with each other, at least when there is enough food to go around. I hear you on the work stress. Hang in there and tell us about your adventures when you have a minute to breathe. 1 Quote Level 71 Viking paladin My current challenge Battle log Link to comment
RES Posted October 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Sooo...brief recap... - Continue eating as I have been, down 18 lbs so far! My goal is to get under 200 this challenge, even if its only 1 lb Didn't happen, didn't gain...but didn't lose any more - Start working out again, this got sidelined during season since I wasn't going to build new habits (even if I'd had them prior, it was still starting over again) my wife has the second bedroom looking like a construction project but no reason I can't use my PiYo videos in the living room....since I have one now . I want this to be habit and second nature again. Also didn't happen - Get to the gym! My job is giving (yes, as in free) us year memberships to Bailey's Gym starting October 1st. They offer classes and a wide variety of items and are right around the corner from me (I could ride my bike!! ) At least twice a week after this starts. Just got the information Friday so will be going this week to check it out - Pay off 'one more' thing...I've started 'snowballing' our debt to try to get it eliminated. I had this done for the most part then we bought the house, and everything we needed for it, etc...happened and it got a bit out of control for this accountant I've got everything compiled and have started the process, just need to continue working it till it's all gone. Then I'll tackle the student loans, one elephant at a time. Worked on the rest, got one paid off then she used it again...small amount so will be paid again, but still the principal of the thing... Did start going to the chiropractor again, insurance company denied my preauth for the injections. Said I haven't been doing enough in the last three months to see if anything helps...guess that last eight years doesn't matter... Off to find people and start a new challenge thread! 3 Quote RES...and I want to live days worth dying for Current: RES: Still in the Struggle Spoiler Really Eclectic Scorpio, Level 79 |1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12|13|14|15|16|17|18|19|20|21|22|23|24|25|26|27|28|29|30|31|32|33|34|35|36|37|38|39|40|41|42|43|44|45|46|47|48|49|50|51|52|53|54|55|56|57|58|59|60|61|62|63|64|65|66|67|68|69|70|71|72|73|74|75|76|77|78|79|80|81|82|83|84| | My Character Page | Tracking Spreadsheet | My Blog | Growth happens when you care more about the well being of your future self than the comfort of your present self!
