The Drop in Centre

[mollyhousemouse]

today was full of self care, minus a quick trip to the vet. i slept in, had coffee & toast, did some reading, took a short nap & made a favorite dinner.

capping off the day with a short drink & some Olympics on TV.

take care 💛

i've heard that hospital resources have been shifted with the covid patients taking the priority. i hope you are able to get in soon

Yeah they have. With the vaccination program and covid patients, hospitals are not running normally at the moment.

When it comes to anxiety, there doesn't always have to be a 'why'. It just is sometimes. Do what you need to do, plus some extra big breaths. 

(Besides, you were just at the vet's yesterday so hopefully you're up to date on your shots! 😊😁, and maybe, just maybe, I made you smile. [Or at least an eye roll])

I don’t know whether to laugh or be horrified that this an actual thing. I first heard about it when my local pharmacy sent me an email regarding said day - which happens to be today - and the sale due to said day. 

smh is a good reaction, I think…

I look best with a darker red, goes better with my colouring. I do like matte however and of course, make sure there is some protection from the sun. 

Thanks for this, but I don't think i'll put it on my calendar!!

Tonight is date night. Now that hubby works overnight shifts, we decided to do something one night during the week. 

He's been chomping at the bit to see Black Widow so it's dinner and movie night. 

I'm waiting for the weather to cool off so we can go do sunset walks on the beach.... gotta get thru August and September.

Hope everyone enjoys their evening!

I think at this point, we're going to need to see some proof. Photo submissions are acceptable. 🤣

Well, I took another step in the right direction on this little journey to better health. 

Joined a gym with my husband. It's got a pool and aqua fitness classes, which I've done before and really enjoy. My knees can't do any kind of impact, so the water option is perfect. 

Right now the only class I can go to is Saturday mornings. They are supposed to be adding evening classes soon. 

So... weight training and elliptical for me. I'm hoping to get in 3-5 days a week. 🤞

Happy Friday Eve!

it's Friday. for most of us the end of the work week.

one positive thing was that visit from our president. he really likes what our location has as far as our office culture & sense of community & collaboration.

one negative thing is that i still feel as though im banging my head against a brick wall when it comes to a different group not following procedure.

so how did you do?

Had my complimentary consultation with a personal trainer tonight.

I. Can't. Feel. My. Legs!

I have a feeling I'm going to be pretty sore tomorrow, but I feel good. 

I signed up for once a week training sessions. I need the consistent motivation and accountability.  They provide a workout to follow on the days I'm not with a trainer. I would like to do 3 days a week with a trainer, but it's a little bit out of the budget. Once a week is pushing it. 

But it's for a good reason. My health is worth it, and one of these days my mind might actually admit that I'm worth it. Still working on that. 

I'm happy for you molly that you had good feedback from the president of your company. And I feel your pain when it comes to other people not following procedures. 

Hope y'all have a nice night!
