  • Friday - Roll Call

    Good Morning STACer's,

    Your humble narrator here, Scooter. Well after a week of rain, snow, tornados, wind, we've somehow made to the end of the work week.

    Tonight I'm playing at a College 'Race For The Cure' for cancer benefit. There is a young man (in his 20's) who is a 5 year surviver and he asked me to play at tonight's event. I'm a bit worried as this is outside. Scheduled for low to mid 30's and possible sleet and rain...amazing. But I shall push on. It's a great cause, so I feel good about doing it. They will have one of those nice dininig tents that I'll be playing under so that's better.

    I hope everybody has a wonderful weekend. It can't rain all the time, that's for sure. Remember to keep your focus this weekend. Stick to plan, get out and try some exercising, maybe try a new veggie this weekend or a new recipe you've never tried before.

    Things to remember: Goals! Focus! Motivation!

    Keep your eye on the ball, you can do this, you want to do this! Have a wonderful weekend friends!!

    Best of wishes, life is good!

    Your buddy,
    Scooter

      Hi Scooter. Good morning. I'll say a little prayer that the weather stays good for you tonight. What do you play?

      I'm on day 3 of induction ... STA for me. But it feels different this time. Feel like I'm more in control this time. So far so good.....

      Looking forward to my weekend too, they are always my hardest point, cos much more temptation around. But DBF has promised to support and encourage me. We have 3 kids with us this weekend - his daughter plus my neice and nephew, so plenty of sweets and carb products hanging around. I've been shopping though, and have my stash of atkin friendly food already prepared.

      Have a great weekend and stay dry tonight!

        Good morning! Woke up a bit late, getting light out, but I haven't missed the SUNrise It'll be nice to see after the days of snow and rain. Our weather is great for this weekend and longer; 50s and 60s and sunny! NO excuses here not to get outside. (I see a lot of bikeriding and some walking, ooh!, and maybe even some kayaking!, happening! And raking...well, can't be all play.)

        Emma, how are your joints feeling? I have one Problem Child around my knee that bothered me most of the night last night - FINALLY took some Aleve for it this morning. It's being stubborn about stretching out so I have to focus on it more.

        Scooter, prayers going up for at least dry weather for everyone at the event. Surely don't need people's bodies get stressed from the wet and cold; too important that their immune systems stay strong.

        First bottle of water done!

            Morning. Slept last night so pretty happy about that, not a health issue but a noisy cat issue. If I close the door and she is in of course she wants out. If I leave the door open and she is out she wants in then closes the door and wants out, Now I put a shoe so the door can't close that takes care of the cat. LOL, have an inventory to audit this morning.
            Will check in later.
            Have a HAPPY FRIDAY. on my way to pack snacks. *grin*

              Good Morning Everyone.. I am checking in.. And just wanted to report that I will be out of town all weekend.. Leaving here in about 2 hours and won't be home until late Sunday night. My daughter dances competively although this weekend we are attending a workshop. I am going to work really hard sticking to my program.. I want to come home weighing less

              Scooter I think its great that you are playing for that kid Once when we did Relay for Life..we were so exhausted.. My feet were hurting so bad. I kept telling myself. I can't quit. People that fight Cancer just can't say I am done....no they have to keep fighting.. Try to stay warm

                Good morning all. Scooter, I was going to ask you again today what you play and if you sing. Now I know! My dh plays hand drums.

                Ds is sick today, so I get to stay home today. Not an entirely unpleasant proposition if he doesn't throw up again.

                Dh is home from his trip to Chicago and he brought me silver jingly anklets!! Now I really have to watch my belly dancing dvd and sign up for more classes. It might be the little push that I needed. Also, this morning I was down 2lbs! Yea! the scale seems to go down about once a week. I love that I started at an even 250 because I only had to lose 11lbs to go from the 250's to the 230's.

                I hope you all have a great day and a great weekend. I see a small patch of blue sky...

                  Speedy, I don't have a cat, but when we stay at a hotel with the kids, I always throw a towel over the bathroom door so they don't get locked in or out.
