Headed to Target to buy some vitamins. See you all on the other side.
Back, no worse for wear. Except- who’s buying all the bubble bath? Not even a generic brand to be seen.

Accomplishment for the day: Female co-worker came around earlier saying that she had something in the kitchen she thought people should try. It was barbecued beaver. Also, she had brought in some buns in case someone wanted to make a sandwich, and there were exactly two buns left.

My accomplishment: Not only did I try the beaver, but I refrained from making one of the 165 outrageously inappropriate comments that I was dying to say.

For anyone curious, it tasted very similarly to barbecued beef, but there was an aftertaste that wasn't preferable.

But it would have been so easy to have ended up with a visit to HR, congratulations on your restraint.

Congrats on holding back.

Kind of a bad time to get fired.

@BoxsterCy I just got an email that my LTF club is closing no later than 8pm tonight. And today is leg day. :(

I guess I'll be doing banded exercise in the basement tonight. At least I can go for a run outside.

I’m kinda glad I always worked out at home because it is part of my routine. Now just 1)Have to keep it up and 2)Quit stress baking. Most times I bake to give it away. Now it is mostly sticking around home. In the past few days we have had pumpkin chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip banana bread, chocolate chip cookies, lemon cookies, and peanut butter pie. About 1/3 of that was for others.

I have realized that even though I was only at work for 4.5 hours, I was pretty active during that time. Need to get out of the house now and move around now that I will definitely be out of work for 4 weeks.

If you need help finding a spot for all those goodies.....

My younger girls (one of whom was OBSESSED with Frozen about 6yrs ago) like Frozen 2 better. I have not seen it, but we have it at home. Thinking I will have plenty of time to watch it in the next month . . .

We made our run through the library before their hiatus.
Got our little space set up for school stuff. Z jumped to it and started writing, so we took pics to show her teachers. (She doesn't always do the writing in school, and just saves it for home.)

Toys, books, and stuff are stocked up. I think we're physically ready now.
Well, except the living room, but that's a multi-day project as Z and I planned out break.

I'm not one to hate on movies very often, but F2 lacked in a lot of areas for me. The songs were forgettable and most of the supporting characters were just wasted.

We saw it in the theater and I even gave it a second watch at home to see if I was missing something that others were gushing over. The mood throughout the film was really inconsistent, too.

I think I should watch it, and you know what would make the situation right......some chocolate chip banana bread. Wonder where I can get some of that?????

You had better drive fast. My 14yr old cut about a 2” piece and she had two pieces. I make 2 loaves and they barely last a day here.
