19.75August Sunshine Hours! (will try to see about expanding on this..., seems JULY was best, fitness-wise, possibly for the year?)
Last TOM - 8/25....
8/28/21 - Saturday - enjoyable sleep-in. 12 hours in my bed, feels comforting.
plans are to study - starting in evening.
maybe cardio rest day/weights rest day? - YES
, cook veggies in slow cooker. - YES :) did it easy - sliced up all veggies, two boullion cubes and some extra spices. will slow cook like a veggie soup.
I did all my laundry, but not the guinea cages yet. may do them tomorrow or Monday.
I admit to sleeping around 1hr-1.5hrs on the couch before lunch. no kiddiing. i'm seriously in the sleep zone lately....i can only think i did lots of cardio yesterday after work and it's my way of resting after...lately the long sleeps are after longer cardio sessions...i could also be due to slightly lower calories at times and then having higher sugar meal; not sure...but there's also a cardio element involved.
10:30-11:45 breakfast: coffee 40, pancake 160, jelly 50, 2 chocs 80, lower sugar gummies 120, 450...
2:45-3:15 snacking: blueberries/raspberries 150; sweet seltzer; later some mint chococlate milanos 3 of them 200...350...
still have leftover chinese broccoli 150 as well as some salad i made; so i guess i'm set veggie wise for a meal later...
7pm 2 leftover veggie/cabbage filled lg dumplings 400, side of plaintain chips 150, yogurt blended with jelly on bottom 150.
couple more milano cookies. i could do better, but, they are tasty...150 and half a bud light with lime 50.
1850......
8/29/21 - Sunday - beach?...if weather stays at 75F partial sunny for where we are planning to go...i didn't mind staying home, friend asked to also for beach instead next week (fine with me) so i cooked yesterday and decided i will relax more today with a supermarket visit as well as cleaning gp cages; maybe exercise; and do more studies today; the goal is to at least finish this week's work for the course so i don't have to do the work on either mon/tues night bc it's due wednesday. (can always get it in earlier on the site, yes).....

I'm wondering if your need for extra sleep is connected with a lower calorie intake at all? TOM is a game-changer, and I can certainly relate to needing extra rest.
Work sounds like it's interesting, working with the boss. A new project? Hope it's not too stressful... Are you like me and can't wait for the weekend? Especially this one -- it seems like it's SOOOO needed...

DONE! ended up moving money back into a CD at my own bank.
also prob today - for the courses i've been taking; i should be able to be reimbursed by the money left in my account for what i've paid for for the paralegal cert and the advanced certs (dad reminded me of this recently; and it's unexpected reimbursement that i'm really glad about! - makes me want to use more of my own money to study more since i'm being reimbursed for what i spent already; up to 3500 which is what's left in the account; the rest of payments will continue on my own dollar...i'm really glad for this money back though!) I am so lucky! :)...need to call on an upcoming day off to request the forms...will request in September or on a very quiet day at work if there is one...

i took the day off bc i havent' been very active; could use the sleeping in; and knew this week could be a challenge with the union meeting and the course and weekend plans. it's a beach weather today; but; i choose to focus on the course and not play around all day - i don't want to be stuck on the weekend with no extra days to get the work done before it's due midweek; i want this extra time to see what i'm up against as these 7 week courses (i've taken 2) vary in intensity and aren't all the same...

Hey, you got your leg workout in before work - good for you!!!!
I checked out 4 books from the library. I've started 2 of them, but I don't know how far I'll get. They are all easy reads, but just not really into the 2 that I've started. Maybe I'll look into starting the other 2 to see if either of THEM peaks my interest...
but by the time i'm back home, relaxed, it's 7:30...so may just get ready for bed and start fresh tomorrow on a workout in the AM...we'll see how i feel :)
the meetings are more convenient than me bc i live around there. some people live in different states or counties! that doesn't bode well; but i attend. it is rather simple and usually you learn something.
i'm so glad i got the legs in. def didn't need to walk much; considering i walked an hour yesterday evening.
re the books - don't read a book that you don't like till the end! :) def look into the others. there are a couple books i haven't finished; most i have (but just because i haven't been an avid reader my whole life; so many of the books i chose later on were bestsellers or highly recommended or on things i really like to read about - s0 because i chose from a selection of "good books," most have been easier to finish....
but i have also had a couple already i haven't. actually more than a couple if you count the book on stocks i didn't finish last summer. but i did learn some things. it's just not the right time for me to read the whole thing thru right now. so that stocks for dummies can wait :)
hardly anyone showed up to this meeting. it's always a quiet showing in the summer; but this was worse than ever.

bank in AM if not going to fire island because i need to take out my matured CD money as it should have done that last year (bad return right now) and didn't even make money this year. it is way below 1%. so i want to cash it and put it in my regular savings, for now...must do between the 20th-28th.
i was able to do the above on my App, didn't need to go to bank and glad I checked my phone this AM after the CD matured :-) was so easy to transfer the money to my checking and close the CD account! I guess if you are switching banks, then you actually need to get a paper check at the bank.
after bank, walking at Forest Park, a nice park near bank...?
bbq dinner with parents..
get veggies from supermarket and prepare something for the week...thinking zucchini noodles with a light sauce...? maybe tonight go to supermarket near parents before driving home after dinner..

Sounds like the beach might be doable? Sounds like you have a nice day planned regardless of which way it plays out. I would say to probably enjoy being outdoors today, because tomorrow will be rain for you. We're getting ours tonight, maybe :-)
I will comment on your entry from yesterday too :-)
you are right, it was good to go.
pizza could have been less, but you never know. this one wasn't overdone in cheese or dough; but, best to average higher. it may have been a bit less; but it's easy to overdo pizza. def should only have one slice, always. i got a diet coke so i could have something to drink and not be stuck with feeling like i wanted more of something..
sister had went to beach with parents earlier, but goes home mostly on weekend nights to be in the city (manhattan) with her toddler and the hubby. they mostly go home on weekends back to city instead of dinner with my parents. but weekdays she visits my parents or goes to beach (since she isn't working since baby) and then goes home and has dinner with my parents. i'll be seeing her later in early september for jewish holidays...though we may celebrate on a different day-weekend day - from the actual calendar day..due to some things my parents need to do and sister with her baby...which is fine by me!
i'm glad i was able to move the money out of the CD on the app...saved me tons of time yesterday..that i ended up spending napping lol.

Currently reading a postive / motivational digital book called "The Energy Bus." It's a fast read, got it from the library. Next book will be an audio book to listen to while in the car. may get bluetooth in my car because the audio on my phone may be too quiet when driving - will try it out before investing in bluetooth...

I foresee a couple of naps in your near future ;-)
seems more than ever that's a definite ;)

Sounds like you got caught up on the sleep.
i do think so, Bear :) for now! hahahaha !!! :)
Donkey on 08/29/2021:
It does sound like your body is recovering or healing from something.
also had TOM this month...maybe that's why. or it could just be a bad habit of sleeping extra that isn't helpful (but i'm not caring about that element at all lately and just sleeping as much as i wish bc i do enjoy it).
lol, i meant i had TOM this past week!
