    • Sending love and hugs dear friend. 
    • Whew! Macros and calories were ON POINT today. Didn’t work out, but rode my bike and did some dancing and a couple rounds of physio.   Tomorrow will be busy until 2:30, and not too sure whether I have enough fixings for my usual big salad lunch; but will pack something substantial enough to let me stay on campus and work for a couple hours after the meetings. On a little roll with doing science thanks to my good coding student and would like to progress some more! Then Friday, no meetings and I can devote the whole day to science, a little physio, and maybe even a gym workout. Wouldn’t that be great!!
    • I woke up at 7:30 to find my cat in the shower, meowing weakly and pitifully, in a small puddle of yellow drool. I brought her water, which she couldn't drink, and tried to make the tap drip for her, but this was just an effort to make her more comfortable. Seeing her like that, it was clear that she was suffering and it couldn't go on. There was no hope of improvement. We managed to get a euthanasia appointment at 9am. My son was able to be there too, to say goodbye to her. Goodbye, my sweet pretty kitty girl. I love you.   So I'm feeling less than amazing today.   This appears to be a season of letting go. Much like fall itself really. Some things die. Some creatures fly away elsewhere. And the world begins to look grayer, harsher, and more hopeless.   As the Earth turns, fall becomes winter becomes spring. The excess of summer is purged, the essential and important preserved, and new buds can spring forth in the space created. Life returns, either newly born or returned from its journey. I can only hope that this holds true for the metaphorical turn of seasons as well.   1. & 2. I am going to struggle with this today.   3. I needed this to get through the day, as I had to go straight to work after the appointment. I had a babytime to run in the afternoon too. It did not take a genius of meditation to feel the sadness in my body today.   4. I spent my breaks outside, and that is all that is going to happen today. I barely have the energy to type this post. I definitely do not have it for anything remotely active.   5. I don't want to talk to anyone right now. I need a chance to process my own feelings first.
    • Made my water goal yesterday, but not the morning start goal. I wasn't too far off.   The water goal is getting harder. I want to try for the entire challenge. Just so I can really tell if it helps anything vs my method of not tracking, or tracking but not quite as much. So far I have not developed super powers, so I am getting a bit tired of having to pee all the time, without the benefit of actually being able to turn myself into a parachute. My skin does seem to look less wrinkly, which may be it's own superpower, since people pay a lot of money for skin creams to try and diminish wrinkles.   Workout happened today. A short walk happened. I'm going to go on another short walk now (it's evening here) I'm walking solo, as Mr. Incredible is picking the apples I was too short to reach.
    • It's a lot of water . And  yes, everyone needs cozy socks.😀 Our tree is a bit earlier. It's actually just one tree, but still very cool. And an amazing amount of apples from one small dwarf tree. We are!
    • Your feelings are valid.  I hope you can find some relief soon. 💜
    • Do you think you may need to get your glasses checked? That blurriness is worrisome.  I am seeing a lot of other check marks, so I wouldn't be too hard on yourself on this one. But it may be that this simple task has grown teeth, so you may want to sneak up on it. Be super stealthy! You got this
    • I read this initially as "smooshie" and I thought it sounded delicious. LOL   YAY for Zumba! High  fives!
    • That does not look comfortable. I don't think I would want clothing rubbing against it either.
