Finally got some sleep...I went to bed at 730 and was out shortly after. I did wake up several times, but was able to go right back to sleep, thank god. I feel a bit refreshed today. But no workout last night, I was tired and my knees wouldnt have handled lunges well. Spent a bit outside decorating for Halloween. My Mom and step dad make a big thing of it and everyone comes over to help. I am not used to all the big family gathering type stuff, so it was a little awkward for me. But watching my son play with the other kids was a very nice thing to see. Stubby had a blast too because someone got a frisbee out for him so they were all playing and everyone seemed happy

Sounds like a great day to me

Sympathies for the awkwardness! I'm never great when large groups of family stop by either. But glad to hear your son and pup had a good time!

Sounds like a refreshing change of pace for you, even if it was awkward. It always feels awkward the first few times you’re socializing without the dysfunctional partner, but you’ll acclimate to it soon enough. This is a great start, and it’s nice that you were included in the decorating party.

Feeling kind of Meh right now

Did day 6 on friday, but never did my run this weekend. Just walking my dog.

…it will pass.

**Trbrat75** · October 19, 2021, 10:58 AM

Thank you mavie

Nothing but walking again as I didnt get home until late. Ugh, I shouldve went to the store over the weekend

**Trbrat75** · October 20, 2021, 10:36 AM

Another Meh day...
I took Stubby on 2 walks last night, before and after dinner, then off to bed. Perhaps I will feel up for a run today

I think all the driving is really taking a toll on me. I get up at 5a, try to leave by 5:30, then almost an hour drive. I get off around 4, go pick up my son and don't get home until 5:30 - 6pm(depending on traffic and how quickly I am able to get my son). Then I walk my dog(so i do something to get my heartrate going, otherwise I would just have my son do it). Luckily I don't have to cook, so that's not something I have to worry about. Mastering my new 'norm' is going to take some time.

**Trbrat75** · October 21, 2021, 10:53 AM

I felt better, but still didnt run...whatever. I'll get back to it, or try something else
I took Stubbs for his walk, he drug me most of the way...met a lady dog...he was very excited about that! Thank God she was on a leash lol(as was he, of course). Then took him to a little open area near the house to play some frisbee as I dont think he is getting his energy out enough on our walks. Poor guy is used to country life and running free.

**Trbrat75** · October 22, 2021, 03:21 PM

I got home and dinner was there

yum. Walked stubbs, had to give him several tugs(and just plain stopped)on the leash as he was pulling horribly. I really need to work with him I guess. Thats it again

**Trbrat75** · October 25, 2021, 11:27 AM

Fri - Walked Stubby - he's still being a butt with the pulling

Sat - went hiking with a friend. I know we hiked a few miles, but I didnt keep track. I had such a lovely time. Except for when my soon to be ex told me to call him...sigh. I shouldve expected that I guess. More talk of bills and things while I am out trying to enjoy my hike...whatever. I still had a good time

Sun - Walked Stubbs and carved pumpkins with my kids! That was amazing! I will have to try and remember to add the photos later

Me: working on pumpkin
My son: working on pumpkin
My(possibly) Future son-in-law: Working on pumpkin,
My very preggo daughter: Babe, can you cut the top out of my pumpkin?......Mom, can you draw this design on my pumpkin?..........Austin, can you clean out my pumpkin?

**Trbrat75** · October 25, 2021, 06:15 PM

Our Pumpkins! From far left -My sons, mine, The boyfriends (joey), and my daughters

I have only done this a handful of times and was very pleased with how mine came out

**Anek** · October 25, 2021, 06:28 PM
