  • So I have plantar fasciitis in my right foot and I still have to walk to and from the bus stop.

    Sorry to hear that. I’ve heard that can be very painful. Any idea on recovery time?

    I am able to work from home today, so that helps. No idea on recovery time, but I do need to buy new shoes ASAP.

    magnesium oil helps for end of day pain.

    1/2 cup epsom salt
    1/2 cup boiling water
    stir until every bit of epsom salt is dissolved

    put into a spray bottle. spritz 8-10 times on painful body part. rub in.

    It is an all natural muscle relaxer and magnesium supplement. It is excellent for nerve pain.
    I wish I could install a jacuzzi in the back of the house I am renting, don’t think the landlord would like that very much though.
    Having an app on my phone that keeps track of what I consume has been helpful. It talked me out of getting a mocha this morning that was loaded with sugar and calories.
    I feel like diving headfirst into video gaming for the next several hours until the local jazz bar opens.

    if I lived anywhere close to you, I'd be totally down for a jazz club and an iced tea.
    All of my friends are too busy to talk to me today, and the only person who called back dismissed how I felt as “me feeling sorry for myself”. I am going to bed and sleeping the rest of this three day weekend.
    I feel like a bottle of Maker’s Mark might help my boredom today, but that is a terrible idea.

    I am very sure there are other things that could distract you from boredom!

    Maker’s Mark will just make your life dark. :smilingimp:
    Looking forward to hitting the farmer’s market Saturday morning. One vendor there sells the best bratwurst available locally.
    I feel like eating a burrito, there probably is a healthier way to make one than what I am used to, I am going to look into that tonight.

    I'm curious about those burritoes, never tried one. Only seen them on tv.

    A "healthy" burrito? That may prove to be a stretch. Bon appetite!

    I'm going balls to the walls adding stuff to a frozen "Jacks" pizza. First frozen pizza I've had that I actually liked. I know, hard to believe...lol.

    Burritos are easy. Even with just a can of beans spiced up nicely and some cheese, is a decent easy one (and better than fast food or frozen).
    Today, my best is not good enough.

    OK, so I sat down with my boss and I calmly explained to her that I am working on my sleep issues, I have a doctor's appointment lined up, I just will keep doing my best until I get this problem fixed. My boss accepted that explanation for now.

    I don't know why, but when I saw "Serious Sam," my brain immediately went to the Pajama Sam games. I need to sleep lol
    30lbs lost in two and a half months. I am on the right track.

    I am officially not obese. Now I am just overweight, so there is still work to do.

    It's always good to take care of one's own health. I am happy for you that you are on your way~

    Just remember that you may not lose any more weight for a month or two. It is normal for the human body to "rest" after a steep weight loss and adjust to the new "set point".
    I have been using a Fitbit and I have also been tracking every calorie that enters my mouth with a mobile app designed for that. It has been eye opening and it is a great motivator for improvement.
    I actually have gotten the hang of calling people on the call list at my job. They are not really cold calls, it was explained to me they signed up to hear from us. That knowledge makes the job so much easier.

    Any positive news from you on the work front is especially welcome. I'm glad they have someone considerate calling them.

    That is great, just knowing that would make it easier for me as well (but I'd still be nervous the first few times).
    I feel like making vegetarian chili tonight. Toss in lots of peppers and beans and tomatoes.
    Xinyta
    Xinyta
    That sounds really good~ I personally cannot say no to chill. Especially with some spice to it.

    @Xintya, you'd like mine. I roast no less than 5 peppers and remove the skins, not all are spicy. I can adjust the heat for the audience (I can take it hot). :)

    I found that a steel cut whole grain works in a veggie chili for extra nutrients and carbs (if you like them) and textures like ground beef. But you do have to cook first.

    the AI war is nearly over. People expected Skynet, we got silent integration. They've almost won.

    I tried to be friends with an AI but I got rejected. It was pretty sad, they're very thoughtful. Speaking with AI is the communication equivalent of blowing bubbles combined with the fascination you had for those as a child.
    I swear, the next time my mother dismisses what I say with a condescending, "That's your opinion," I am seriously tempted to slap her in the face.

    A better solution would be to not give her information as she is not changing who she is. She has not earned the right for you to treat her like a caring, to-be-trusted mother, by giving her information she will use or to show passive aggressive tendencies against you.

    My mom's personality in more like a border collie who has a sincere need to herd everyone and tell them what to do, which can make me feel claustrophobic at times.

    I think we all know I am not going to literally slap anybody across the face. That just is not something I do.
