Tall Tales from the Tropics

We are embarking on a tropical adventure this May with fun activities and many wonderful memories. So you don't forget what you were up to this month. Here is our May journaling board. Use it to keep track of your activities, share thoughts and ideas, and to support and motivate yourself and your fellow Sparklers.


Personal Journaling

Do you keep a private journal or food tracker? If not, consider starting one. Make it a habit to take a few minutes to yourself to reflect on your day.

Its payday and I feel like this is every bill collector making my check disappear today. Don't you wish we could go 1 year of our adult lives without having to pay monthly bills?


Running a lot of errands today but other than that, same old stuff, different day. This short work week is messing me up. Only good news was I was down by 2 pounds. Don't ask me how. Was surprised by that.


We are finally having summer weather with no rain forecast for the entire week. Thinking we may need to hit the pool sometime this coming week.


Enjoy your weekend ladies. See you all in June!

Luke's team run ruled their game.. Leo's team lost in the last inning sadly.. Leo did hit a double though.. he is doing so good!


Didn't hit my goal of being in the 220's this month but I am so close! I can do this! I will be there before my birthday in August.


We have baseball all weekend. Leo plays tonight. Luke has a double header tomorrow. And a game on Sunday. His game is about an hour away tomorrow then Sunday he plays at home. which is less than a minutes drive.


Have a great day ladies! And a fantastic weekend!

Happy Thursday!


Didn't do much today...just needed to rest after such a busy week and weekend! Tomorrow I'm back to doing chores. Hopefully I can lose some weight... we'll see. I'm tired of the yo-yo!


Good luck on weigh in!

Just like cortisone shots...it hurts because it's between bones, but they're quick and I'm used to it.

Spent the night in Davenport, IA and enjoyed the pool at the hotel. It was a nice spot with a great meal at O'Bradys. Today was an easy 3-hour drive to our destination at Lisle, IL and tomorrow we will be going to Mooseheart for 5th and 8th grade promotions and then Saturday is HS graduation and the Pilgrim ceremony. It is in the 80s here. Had a long talk with the weight doctors nurse as I wanted to increase the zepbound but until I hit my protein goals they won't increase it and I am far off of that right now. I am going to do every thing in my power to hit 60 grams of protein this …

You got this Jill! I know you do.. It's so hard to get that much protein. They want me getting 100 g a day no way! I can't do it! I do need to start walking again outside. I just haven't gotten there yet.


Have a great weekend my dear friend.

Happy Thursday ladies! Hope everyone is finding a little time for themselves today, even if you are on the road or keeping a crazy schedule.


Catching up at work. Still working on the Spanish translating. Very tedious and very slow going. Also working on menu planning and grocery lists for next week. Long weekend has me screwed up. Can't believe it is already Thursday.


Not much else happening in my neck of the woods. Babysitting little Maddie for awhile on Saturday and have a great nephew's graduation party on Sunday. Other than that, yard work and laundry. The usual fun-filled activities.


Will switch over the boards sometime this weekend, so if you have trouble with the site, it is probably…

Sitting on babies is the best.. I love that you get to do that!!!


Why did I not know you had a knee replacement? You can't get down in the floor anymore can you? This is my thing. I want to be able to play with the boys.. In the floor or wherever they want me too. I am the only grandma that can!


I can totally see where you are anxious about pulling that money! I would be as well. Hell I already owe IRS too much lol


It depends on the day where the boys are playing at the same fields or not.. However we have to divide and conquer because Doug is helping Luke's team so I…
