There are three days so a single vote is not going to do it! I anticipate my weekend will involve all of the options... and I foresee some challenges to healthy eating and weight loss, but also the expenditure of some calories outdoors.

Work tomorrow then see what Saturday and Sunday brings proberly abit of packing the house ready to move.

What will you be doing Jerry?

Hi there Jerry, both my husband and me are doing some landscaping in the garden and this is what we will be doing so there will certainly be plenty of exercise. ;)

Sounds great Alicia, its great weather for a gardening project too. 😊

Well as you can see I have been away from my PC so as you may have guessed we have done really well in the garden, more to do yet but we have certainly broken the back of it. I think it may constitute to doing some exercise as I have been using a pick axe, lifting bags of sand and cement, digging trenches to put sleepers into, shovelling up mounds of earth and stone and helping the hubby carry sleepers. ;)

Hi Alicia, it sounds like you've had a very constructive time so well done and exercise is great but when you've a purpose even more so as you've something to show for it so well done you and hubby.

I'll have to give you a shout when I want some building work done...😊

in reply to

Well we have finished the project and now need to clear up the rubbish i.e. the rotten garden landscape polls that we removed - there are loads of them!. You can see what we will be doing next. ;)

You'll probably have to give me a loud shout then re building work as it depends on what part of the country you live. ;)

Pretty busy the Running of the Roses- Sat at 2:30 PM, horse racing. The largest and grandest in the land a must to see. The coctails will flow for a brunch and followed by BBQ for anyone wishing to stay. Sunday we celebrate Chinco da- a Mexican holiday. Grilling marinated flank steaks with red , green, yellow and onions. Lot's of Pico da Gallo sauce, hot suce, shells to wrap the meat, various dishes guest bring. Certainly the fine mexiacan drinks will flow and beer. Calories will have to be guarded. We drink one beer the a glass of water- avoids a hang over main purpose you get full fast. We always start a meal with 8 oz of water about 10 min's before eating.

Jerry have a great holiday hope you have some plans!

Yeah, In 2015, my father had a stroke and had to be fed thru a feeding tube. I had to fight to get him therapy so they could get him off the tube. I can't remember but it seems like they had to do something to see if he was at a point where therapy could help. I am glad your husband is improving. Please let him know that the people on the research team are cheering for him.

Thank you :). I hope your father recovered. My husband is having physio and also a speech and language therapist has been seeing him (my daughter-in-law who is a nurse, said that apparently they can do some kind of exercises that strengthen the muscles for swallowing).

in reply to Rockapple

Hey Rockapple, I'm glad that your husband is improving and he is in good hands but its still a terrible worry for you.

You're amongst friends on here so if you need to let of steam we're here for you. And I do hope he makes a good recovery.

My β€œ other” vote is for de frosting the pantry freezer and if still in the mood on Sunday, de frosting the Kitchen freezer. It’s been on my to do list for some months. 3rd item is to clear out paperwork and magazines. But this is so difficult. But, I’ve made a start whilst waiting for 1st freezer to thaw. Had some freezer food this evening with reduced Sea bass fillets & 4 chips.
