I had a mild setback that made me take it easy this week, but I just went on a half mile walk, which felt good. I hadn’t been outside in a week, and it’s like the leaves all turned color over the last 7 days—so gorgeous!
Sorry I fell behind on this. I'm so glad that you went for an entire half mile. Sorry you had a setback; are you on the road forward again? I hope your recovery is smooth from here on out.
I have done well with my water drinking goal, but the others not so good.
Yep, I’m doing better. I pulled something near my groin last week during a laughing attack—so embarrassing 😂
I’m at 100% for tracking sugar daily and sending in numbers weekly to my doctor.
I’ve only missed pills one day this entire month. I feel like a new person with this level of responsibility.
On top of all that, I resigned and left my old job (putting 80 hours the last week to ensure they were in a good place since no one was taking over my role for awhile) and started a new job that I just love.

I'm still going strong with my daily french! I think my streak is at 154 days. I've gotten back to watching shows and movies in french or with the french subtitles.

We had a detour. A freak rainstorm (it never rains in Southern California🎵) made us have to move all of the boxes into the house since they were exposed on the patio. Of course the weather is back to the high 80’s and 90’s tomorrow.
Slow and steadily, I am still unboxing and sorting. We now have 8 large boxes to donate. I should be finished by Sunday.

Well, in not entirely unexpected fashion, October was a disaster for goals because of work. I feel like I'm not keeping things together very well, on a number of fronts. I'm struggling to stay on top of everything I need to at work; I'm feeling like all my good progress on tackling cleaning/purging projects has plateaued and gone backwards, because entropy; and I just feel like every day, the tiniest little thing becomes a distraction and I have a hugely hard time focusing and making forward progress on things. Even more than usual. I'm seriously at a point where I'm considering getting evaluated for ADD, but I have so many other things that I need to take care of that that feels like just one more thing on a list that I will never get to. Speaking of, I'm even having trouble making lists. lolsob
I was doing really well the last couple of months and October just brought everything to a screeching halt.
ETA: Although I did have a really good run this morning, at least I haven't lost all the conditioning improvements from the thrice-weekly runs. I told DH I want us to register for some kind of virtual turkey-trot thing and we'll run a 5K on Thanksgiving before we eat.

I had the exact same thing. I was holding together relatively well until October. Last week was my apex. I got two big items that needed to be done and spoke to my manager and am taking two days off just to breathe, regroup, clean my house, read, do laundry, etc...

For me, this feels like a great start to Q4!
This is all so impressive! I don't even know you and I'm so happy for you. Yay!

Thank you! This thread has helped me a lot...a little “public” accountability went a long way.
I did it! This morning was gorgeous (albeit cold) and I walked 1.5 miles around the neighborhood.
The last 2 days have been wonderful. It’s like I’ve turned the corner and I wake up and it takes me a bit to remember that I’m recovering from surgery 😊
