Hello Team Donald! I want to apologize for not replying tonight and not getting on the dis yesterday or today. In fact, I wasn't on a computer at all until now. With this gorgeous weather, getting to the gym, and going to swim lessons yesterday and church tonight, I've had no time. So, I wanted to check in and I will get all caught up tomorrow with replies for the QOTDs and replies to people, too. I hope everyone else is enjoying this beautiful weather and getting some outside exercise! Enjoy it and I will be back tomorrow!!

Glad you are able to enjoy the weather!! Last week was beautiful and went on a couple runs, but our yard is just full of water today. Hopefully it'll dry up this weekend!
YAY! I'll make a Sherlockian out of you yet!
You'll totally love the 3rd episode, especially the end. Benedict and Martin really work wonderfully together as Sherlock and Watson; it's hard for me to imagine anybody else in those roles.
Haven't been able to watch Season 2 yet since it's not available on iTunes yet and I don't have BBC, but I'll PM you a couple of Season 2 clips I found online that you'll probably like.
The end of season 2 will break your heart...

So I did catch my cat nap with the kitty today and was able to get in a little over an hour at the gym. I also saw my trainer there this evening, so I had to tell him about my 6 lbs loss since the last time he saw me so he's was very pleased to hear about that.
The 25th anniversary cast of Les Mis was starting when I left so I hurried home and have it playing right now. Beautiful musical; I don't why people give Nick Jonas so much grief of playing Marius. He really did a beautiful job with it.
Gonna finish watching the show then heading to bed. Good night all!
My brother walked into my room and said "Do you just find the most obscure british shows that nobody has heard of to watch?" and I said "Why, yes, I do." He stands there and watches a few minutes and then eventually grabs a soda, sits on my floor and finishes watching the episode. I said "Good show, good show, huh? Huh? British tv is good, right?"
He just smiled and said, "Sure."
Yay! I'm sure he was happy!
I haven't ever seen Les Mis. I need to though!
For the QOTDs this week, I thought it would be interested to take a look at some of the characters that play a supporting role, a minor role or even a bit role in a Disney animated feature. Sometimes we can gleam quite a bit of wisdom from one of these characters if we take a moment to think about it.
A Fly from A Bug's Life
Fly: I only got twenty-four hours to live, and I ain't gonna waste it here.
So what will you do with your next 24 hours before weigh-in to make sure it is not wasted?
I have another 30DS day ahead of me and I'll probably try and get some hula hooping in during my tv time. Still haven't gotten a stationary bike yet, so I'm limited to my hula hoop!
Good THursday morning everyone.
Had a busy day at school. Our department meeting went well and there were not too many problems.
My classes were tough since the periods were shorten and I had to get a very important topic across to the students. My head was spinning by the end of each class. I will see how they did today when they ask their questions.
I came home and took a short nap. I feel like a cold is coming on but I am trying to avoid it. I don't have time for one until next week.
After dinner I worked on a quilt top. This afternoon I have to pin it together and maybe start to quilt it.
I will be working today to help finish costuming the anniversary show. I know I will be running around like crazy tonight. After school I will be up and down pinning the quilt I am finishing. SO I guess you could day I am just moving as much as I can.
Have a happy and healthy day.
Hope you get rid of your cold and have a good day!
You can do it
Well today I have not 1 but 2 sick kids off school and I've been up since 4am coughing/wheezing. I have had to start a course of antibiotics and steroids to try and keep my asthma under control so fingers crossed it all improves as the day goes on I had planned to do some gardening work and to head for a walk but now thats been shelved and I will be staying put and dishing out ice-lollies and paracetamol to keep temps down all round
Good luck to everyone for tomorrow-I'm not hopeful this week but we shall see!
Have a great day
Hope you feel better soon! Gardening sounds like fun, we are putting a small garden in our back yard for some strawberries and other vegetables.
I am in the same conundrum regarding my upcoming vacation. So I too have been trying my best to plan the exercise while on the ship and "where is best to eat" for my WDW days. I think I have chose a balance that will allow me to enjoy myself but not go completely overboard either. I think the best thing I am now armed with is an awareness and sense of keeping myself accountable. If I see the numbers start to slip, the exercise will increase and the No-No foods will decrease or be eliminated.
Being aware of the calories before you eat them is a major step in the battle. You know how to adjust your day based on that and area ble to make a choice. Also knowing that they are not worth it all the time is a big step. I did the same a couple weeks ago with a Snickers.....

Sorry for my delay in writing today. It was Student led Conferences today and I had to get to work early to set up and then went pretty much straight through the day with the conferences. But they are over and another big check on my list of TO BE DONE BEFORE VACATION hurdles.
My answer to the QOTD I guess, is that I will really ensure I give my all on my gym visit tonight and I will make sure that I get all my calorties. No skimping in hope of a reduction. That never works.
Hope all are well as things are REALLY QUIET on our last day as Team Donald.

Sounds like a good plan! It's hard to really know how you are going to react until you get there.
The only thing I really have a problem with is reeses cups. Dark chocolate isn't as good so I'm not as tempted to eat as much. Good luck at the gym!

Good morning Donalds!
My best friend called and woke me up at 6:30 this morning to tell me that her and another one of my friends missed their flight home by 3 minutes. She wanted to tell me about how she ran down the hallway carrying her shoes because she didn't have time to put them on. Their luggage was on their original flight and luckily they were able to get free tickets for a later flight! I've never been on a plane, I'm too scared, but airport lines are just another reason why I don't fly!
I started reading the hunger games a few days ago. I'm on chapter 5 and it's good! Hoping I can finish it by next weekend.
