surprised - my grades from the paralegal assignments due last sunday are still not up on the site today....and i noticed the instructor wasn't online the whole day yesterday...it shows when everyone logs on! hopefully he's ok, he's back today...and hopefully i get the grades soon lol...i worry about things that don't matter (grades that don't matter)
_______________________________________________
Today's goal to get me started, working on this already at noon today:
- fix up the mobile site display, add rest of the content today review the entire website: so it looks right; for myself
- COOK a cauliflower fried rice, defrost any old food in freezer that i am not eating / throw away things i am not eating. maybe not today...slow going, still working on site.
- go OUT to supermarket when i am done with the website work & cooking is done, for more bread, fruit, veggies, chips, cookies.
- Bike ride AFTER supermarket (hopefully outside if it isn't rainy as we are having a chance of rain as well as nice, cooler, temps today.
- speak with nurse renee tonight at 8pm when she logs on and adds her answers in the nurse's category on my site!!! :) she agreed to help me tonight!

watched the church service for John Lewis held in Atlanta at a baptist church since it's being featured on Channel 1 local news. 3 former presidents were there (bush, clinton, obama)...and house speaker. there has been songs and poetry throughout the service. good to see (although i am not being very productive beyone that!).
of course though, it was good to see the service, hear these excellent speakers...and vocalist performers. something very different and meaningful to be a part of from my living room couch.
________________________________________
DONE! I have weights to do...and get them done PRIOR to my 5-8pm class tonight...I will certainly not wait to do weights for after 8pm! that wouldn't be too smart, would it!? DID weights extremely FAST...and had to quickly finish DURING the start of class when we were working (i'm ahead of the class a bit, so, i figured i'd just finish up my weights for 10 minutes during the 3 hours class (nobody knew).
_______________________________________
so It's now 12:40pm. I've cleaned up dirty dishes and my mind is now working clearly not like i just woke up! I'm still waiting for my course grades from paralegal to come back (the project managment course is pass/fail not graded like paralegal at all). I really want these grades from assignments that were due this past Sunday already...they have to give them before friday (before the weekend i think as i don't think they work on weekends?) i'd think! so, let me be patient!
DONE! like i said, i have the class today 5-8. and
DONE! i DO have to fix up an assingment now so it's ready to be submitted again with the class today..
NOT DONE.and I SHOULD work on the website (ricky advised me it doesn't look right when it's viewed on a mobile device so i may have to change a few things...) I will NOT skip out on my website tomorrow, but, I will only do it after I do a nice bike ride in the morning. I could also use some fruit and veggies, to get tomorrow.
I am not planning to go out for cardio unless Ricky wants to take a short walk tonight after my class. It's hot and i walked a good amount yesterday. I have the indoor bike and my weights to keep me company today...
DONE! not skipping, do a short walk, after class.
_______________________________________________________
that's about it. :)
As for cooking, still no need as i have leftovers of chicken from my parents...i still have a lot of salad ingredients for both myself and the piggies. I will possibly cook a "cauliflower fried rice" today or very soon - time to use my frozen foods before i shop more!
__________________________________________
Progress as of today: -5 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
And like you, I did weights last night!
yesterday, i got them done in record time - like 45 min, maybe less!
Hopefully you get your grades back today so that you don't have to think about it over the weekend!

so i'll go pick up the bike sometime after biking.

Put my clean clothes away (will do this tonight) - tomorrow LOL.

I decided to stay home today, catch up on some work I need to do including both Paralegal and PM.
2:15pm Paralegal - updated my Memo 1, now just need to update the test by removing the charts, and just listing my answers without the chart form...i should be done by 3pm.
after 3pm, i may take a break and use my indoor bike for 20-60 minutes depending how i feel. then a shower except for my hair since i'm sure i'll be a little bit sweaty.
Ricky and I were thinking about an early morning bike ride but it will get fast and yesterday was enough physical activity for this weekend as my legs are slightly tired today after yesterday's movement :)
_______________________________________________________________
weights i'm doing mon/thurs/sat this week. legs i'll do tues/thurs possibly..
Wednesday i'm possibly going to beach assuming the weather is ok. so cannot plan much on that day in terms of exercise....to review as the week and weather can be confirmed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Progress as of today: -5 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
....and i must work on my hw now :)
Not sure about your weather but it is H.O.T. here today, so maybe it's a better day to stay inside and read and such, too.

Road trip is out East an hour drive for the morning until early afternoon with ricky to park for walking / fishing.....
then we are coming home to do some cleaning / work
in the evening possibly we will ride our bikes
I think a nice road trip will do you quite well. So nice just to be outside, calm, relaxing. I don't care for fishing, but it would still be nice to be by the water while someone else fishes.
we hiked a lot more than we usually do and it felt good to get out and see what i can do - and want to do more (be able to do these longer walks again!)
thanks for watching my video!

_______________________________________
walked slow on stepper 15 min, already late into the morning...found myself just checking on websites in the morning, not really focusing on anything in particular. it's also that time of the month (finally!) but i'm really just wanting to relax and not rush with my work (of which it IS piling up for this class...but not near as much work as the paralegal - of which i might take some time on the weekend to slightly modify an assignment that's due sunday night so i can receive a better score than if i don't modify it..., we'll see what i have time for...)
couldn't get focused to do my work today at home. so i decided to go out after lunch to take a walk, and it was quite long, over an hour, at the end stopping at a nearby supermarket which happened to have some sales on cereals and snacks. i aso picked up one thing of importance - lettuce - mostly for my pigs though!
weights in later afternoon / evening
Progress as of today: -5 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!

______________________________________________________
made plans with a good friend of mine that i do adventures with. i am a little nervous, but she seems to be taking care of herself. nervous bc i don't want to catch anything from anyone or anywhere. we are going to take a road trip next friday to an island off of Rhode Island. It's approx 4 hours away. so, we'll spend most of the day sitting in the car...lol...i am not sure this will happen....
___________________________________________________________________
Today, after i got up and had breakfast, I decided to take care of a few bills / letters. One, I had to renew my notary license and pay $60 renewal fee (every four years), so i filled out the paperwork and took it to a nearby liquor store with a notory (not friendly!) to notorize my form (yup, a notary has to notorize my notary renewal!) and i put it in the mailbox...i also paid my car insurance for the next 6 months and did that on my phone app for Geico!....lastly, I paid my housing maintenance. so that's all done. glad i have some extra $ in my checking account from the unemployment not to have a problem with these extra bills or need to use any of my savings at the moment. This is also how I paid for the paralegal class. It wasn't savings, but income specifially from unemployment that i've been using on everything. I am lucky my rent bill / maintenance is so low that i do have money left over each month for those extras. we'll see what the next round of NYS unemployment will include as i doubt it will be as high as the past 4 months...
__________________________________________________________________
I'm just glad to have had it, been able to be productive and take classes. As for the paralegal, we are beginning to get out grades for week 3 this week. I'm not really satisfied with how they are grading. The instructor seems to be VERY strict with how he grades and I have done well on some other assignments, but as for the tests in particular, my grades have been an 80, 82, and 72. Especially with the 72 (which is passing), I feel he is taking points off just for minor things and all these minor deviations are adding up to a low grade. I was so annoyed actually, that I emailed him because I do not believe a 72 reflects the time i put in. Yes, there were mistakes, but minor! and, he didn't want me to rewrite charts, instead just listing answers in sentences but not as the book shows it...except he told me this after week 1, after i did all the work! if he didn't want us to rewrite the questions in chart form as they look in the book, he should have made this known at the beginning of class, not after i did the work. and my charts have the right answers which is why i am angry that i am not getting full credit on answers where i am right! i have no problem losing points for things i didn't do right, but if my answer is there and clear and right, don't take off for the look / display when you didn't give me advance knowledge that you prefer my answers written out and not in the original chart! just terrible...we'll see what he says.
the PM course is what i'm mostly doing now. I just have to make sure i am passing the paraglegal course and don't have to hopefully do any work over again...the course has stated that everyone will pass, as long as we receive an overall grade of a 70. I will do far better, i think! But, right now i'm not so pleased with my asignments and really don't want to do any again that have not been graded or fix...i may if i have time...not so sure. something to think about as i'm really not connected to the paralegal while doing a Project Management course at the moment...blah blah blah.
So the PM course is ok. I spend a lot of time yesterday getting used to managing / formating the website. I will be needing to do much more work on it. so i plan to start that soon, again today.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
I might go out to buy / pick up Thai food today to have to eat for a few days at home as leftovers - lots of cooked veggies. YES, i should learn to cook it as GrannyAnnie suggested...but not right now...perhaps a little later if i am still not working (probably will be the case)...when this PM course is over, i'd consider working on cooking some thai food on my own...veggies mostly in particular - getting the sauces down pat!
If i go out for thai food, i need to do it early in the afternoon beccause i have the class from 5-8pm tonight. So it'd be best if i go out to get it for a late lunch or so...we'll see. i think they have lunch specials which could be a good deal.
______________________________________________________________________
Somehow i've been PMSing with some minor pain since like Saturday. any hour now...i'm waiting for that time of the month to finally show up!
Progress as of today: -5 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
That stinks about the professor's grading. But the important thing - and you know this - is to pass the coursework and to learn the material.
You are a good writer. In some jobs I've applied for, I had to submit a writing sample (business letter). But I don't think anyone ever asked about grades.
I know no one wants a bad grade but I encourage you to keep your eye on the prize, in getting the certificate. See how you do with WESTLAW. That in itself is a valuable skillset, one that I've never mastered... but probably could with more practice.
I feel your concerns about the road trip. I'm kind of in the same boat.
Agree don't worry too much about grades.
9am? Breakfast: small corn muffin 120 with butter 30, peanut butter 100. 250. kombucha 50. 300.
nice, long bike ride from around 10:30-11:30 to get some cardio in before working on my homework..
snacking around noon, not hungry for a meal: gummies x2 200, maybe iced coffee too 50.
1pm lunch piece of salmon with skin small 200? On a big flatbread 260, 450-500. Later a clementine 50.
5pm-5:30 clementine 50
6pm dinner: rest of the leftovers of indian veggies okra bindhi masala 150?, other veggies small amount, restaurant style tortilla chips 250...400-450, seltzer and stevia (and a snack later...)
7:30 big thunderstorm very dark, no visibility, just glad i am home and safe tonight! 2 chocolates 50, more chocolate 50.
few more chocolates late at night, near midnight. 100
1800 tops....I will be ordering thai food for lunch tomorrow & to have leftovers for the rest of this week....
Changed my mind - will lift weights now at 8:30pm to get them done today and not need to do them tomorrow morning, when instead i can walk tomorrow morning!
i am honestly not sure if i will lift weights today...i may do them tomorrow morning because i have not finished the hw for my course yet...
______________________________________________________________________
I have work to do for my class, a lot of it actually, but will begin today with a bike ride before coming back to do my work. later in the afternoon, i'll do some weights. weights around 5 or 6pm i think....8:30pm i will get my upper body weights in...then sleep in like i've been doing...everyday!
