Today was a very good day. Unlike yesterday when one thing after another went wrong. I'm thankful for getting to the Y this morning. I had a good workout in the pool and even got in some extra laps. I might have gotten a full 45 minutes. I'm thankful for getting my laundry done early after the Y. I was home before 9:30 with the laundry washed, dried, folded, and put away. I'm thankful for the walk I got this morning while at my son's while the clothes were in the washer. I also got in some extra exercise while I waited for the laundry to finish. I'm thankful I finished all my fitness goals today. I have over 21K steps. I had 10K by 8:33 this morning and 20K by 4:10. My back is feeling it, but not bad, it's all the exercise today. I'm thankful I got some of the notifications finished today. It's good to know what's going on in your world. I'll finish them tomorrow. Two days until the first. It doesn't look like I've lost any weight this month. I tried. I got down but came right back up again. Today, I'm at 177.8. I'm keeping track of what I'm eating. I'll post that again on the first. 40 days until I move. I pick up the keys in 5.5 weeks. It's getting closer. Okay, that's my day. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. Clouds the day of our big storm. Looking at my new apartment building.

I am thankful because they missed the weather forecast, the storm did not reach our area. We had wind during the night, but nothing serious or dangerous.

@just4him The storm is here now, I hear the thunders and the wind is blowing now. When I thought we escaped.

Good luck with those goals. I'm sure you'll do fine. losing weight can be a tricky thing. The important thing is you're active. I'm thankful that things went so well.

@marlina It's amazing what a change in management does for a complex. The last management was so good, trustworthy, helpful. This one, just the opposite. So many people are jumping ship. I hope they found nice places too.

Nicely done Valerie. Those are good goals to have and be thankful for. I'm thankful for lovely weather when I hiked with my church friend and had a nice lunch. I'm also thankful that Wylie gave me a quiet morning after a rough couple of nights when he kept me up by caterwauling and pawing my face and closet-banging. Congrats on the move.

The one I have now is a two-bedroom. That one is a one-bedroom. I know there is downsizing to do. However, size-wise, it's only 100 sq. ft. smaller than what I have. So, I'm sure other than the office, I won't notice it too much. The living room and dining area are bigger than what I have. So, is the bathroom. I think the bedroom is too. So, overall, it will be great. The kitchen also has more cupboards and is U-shaped instead of a galley. On the plus side, it allows pets, has a fitness center and a community room, and free cable. I also have a balcony. I'm really looking forward to the move. I can't wait to get away from here. The new management is awful. The reason for the move. The building has three floors and elevators and underground parking. I would need to pay extra for that, but that's okay. Where I'm at, is perfect. I'll miss the traffic, but the upside is the view is trees and from what I've been told, deer are often seen there.

Yes, I am ready for a new place. I still have a lot of packing to do. I'm going to work on the kitchen and bathroom today. I might even get the bedroom packed up. This office will be last because it will take the most time.
