August 20 - What I'm Thankful for Today

It was a good day, literally. I'm thankful for walking at daybreak. The weather was beautifully cool. I'm thankful for getting notifications finished twice. I visited many of you and enjoyed the visit. I'm thankful I talked to a wonderful myLot friend and later after my battery recharged I talked to my sister. Good conversations from both. I'm thankful a neighbor in the building I live in took me with her to the store so I could get a few items I didn't get yesterday. Now I only need to know - do I make the zucchini vegetable medley or potato salad for the church picnic on Sunday? Give me a hint guys. Thank you. I wish I could make a dessert for a change, but they always put the side dishes on the end of the alphabet. I'm thankful I got some work done on Vendetta. I stared at the screen more than I wrote. It's coming together. I'm thankful I have all my fitness goals accomplished. I'll do the last hourly steps in half an hour. That will put me over 20K steps. Okay, I'm almost finished with my dinner, delicious! And over budget for calories. It will be interesting what the scale shows tomorrow. That has been my day. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

Potato salad is good for a Sunday picnic. You can make it before Sunday and it would be delicious eaten cold on a hot summer day.

@thelma55 I agree. I don't want to overload the table with potato salads. I'm sure there will be several. I'm going with the zucchini medley.

All lovely things to be thankful for. I'm thankful that grocery shopping didn't take too long this morning. And Mike will be home with me tonight. We miss one another when we have to be apart. I would take the zucchini vegetable medley, but when our church has a meal there is always 3-4 potato salads and not as much in other veggies. I hope you and your church family have a good fellowship.

I agree, and why I'm taking the zucchini medley. I'm sure it will go over. Thank you. I'm glad Mike was home last night and shopping went well.

I agree, and so will a few others. I'm opting for the zucchini medley. I think it will be a hit too. If not, I'll have plenty of delicious leftovers when I get home.

I think potato salad would be a good choice. I love how you don't get upset about being over budget on calories. I need to be more like that.

@just4him I have a tendency to beat myself up when I'm over budget on calories. By the way, I like the words 'over budget'. Sounds so much better.

Potato salad is a good choice and one I think a few others will make. So, I'm making the zucchini vegetable medley. I knew it wasn't foolish eating, like yesterday when I had two cheeseburgers from A&W. Those put me over budget too and it showed up on the scale this morning, but it's water weight so I'll get rid of it soon.

@simone10 I don't beat myself up because I know the little I gain is water weight and will come off a lot easier than the fat, but that's coming off too. I like over budget better too.

Potato salad would be the go to, but make sure you can keep it as cold as possible because of the Mayo. I am thankful for a another day on this earth!

@just4him That sounds good too and it makes sense to bring something nobody else will bring.

I thought of that. However, I'm sure there will be at least three potato salads. I'm going to go with a zucchini medley. No one else will have it.

Sounds like a good day there, and that is a wonderful photo. That's a good question on which to take...I'd say whichever one you like best (I'm picky so never tried any form of either of those)
