Week 55 - Day 1

 Weight this am - 130.0

Catching up on the rest now.   Nice to have my low on weigh-in day.  Not so nice to have my phone die and me lose all my data...and possibly photos. 😞  This sucks.   

Ok - catch up time.  

The 21st and 22nd were ceiling work.   

The 23rd I had rehearsal

The 24th I did a farewell show for my friend who is going to England for a year-ish.

The 25th - 27th have all been ceiling stuff.   

I logged weights on my app but didn't transfer them to MFP so I don't know if I can recover them.  Ugh.  That's pretty much it.    I am glad the ceiling thing happened AFTER the redo and AFTER I got the costumes done.   That helped a lot.     

I think I'm going to switch to a bulk post for each week now.  There's less to record daily right now.   

Week 54 - Day 1

 Weight this am - 132 (I think)

Catching up.   On the 17th we woke up to water on the game room floor.   I was going to catch up on missed blog posts then but that messed with me.   This post is even backdated because I missed last week. 

So from my last post on the 15th to now - here is what happened.  

Rehearsal on Sat the 16th

Ceiling leak on the 17th

Plumber here on the 18th

Ceiling repair on the 19th and 20th.

Weight was mostly 130 or 131 and I remember today being an aberration.   I'll catch up on the rest in another bulk post. 

Motivation is Hard Sometimes

 Weight this am - 130.2

I know I need to start exercising and take a break from alcohol but I keep falling into the same pattern lately.   It's just overwhelm.   With the world both macro and micro-cosm ish.   I'm just tired and I'd like things to stop spiraling down the drain.   

I need to get back to bite-sized chunks.   Today I have to finish costumes.   Tomorrow I have rehearsal. Then we move on to finishing upstairs.   

I'm going to work on organizing my data so I have a full year's worth in one post.   Wish me luck.

More Organizing

 Weight this am - 130.4

Still gunning for the 120's for real.   

Working again on costumes.   I think I have a decent sort going on.   Now I just need to figure out how they are going away in the space.   I'm getting there. 

This weekend we start on Mark's office.

Week 53 - Day 1

 Weight this am - 130.8

Wish it had stayed where it was yesterday.   sigh.   But at least it's away from 132.   I need this month to go to the 120's.   And I'd like to get my ass back.   The med finally started affecting that.   I don't know why it won't take the boobs...they could go.

Last Day of Week 52

 Weight this am - 130.0

Now if that holds for tomorrow things will be great.   Tomorrow is the last day of this "month" and I do all of my measurements and such tomorrow.    Waiting for photos until I see 127.   I'm going to take them on the micro goals since we're so close.  

I desperately need to tone.   Just trying to get the motivation again.  I should at least do the Pilates.   I can start that tomorrow.  I know I can. 

Pot-Luck Night

 Weight this am - 130.4

Back out of the 2's but it's still a good number.   I'll take it.   

Potluck tonight.   It was great to see everyone.

FINALLY A TWO

 Weight this am 129.4

FINALLY

Unfortunately I don't have any prior weights to check off until I hit 129.2 but that's FINE.   I've been waiting for the 120's for SOOO LONG.   I'm so excited to have finally seen it.   

I can't wait to be able to start checking off numbers again.   That actually feels close now. 

Rocky Horror Show

Weight this am - 130.2

I'll take it.   

Finished memorizing Puck.   Went out to The Rocky Horror Show tonight.    Such fun.   I miss it so much.  Wore the same pants I wore to Sean's Birthday dinner...they are loose now.    Well...not tight anyway.   I may need to try on ultimate goal pants again.   

What I really need to do now is restart my exercises.   It's probably time.   We're about a month and a half out from Midsummer so I should really tone up. 

Lines and Costumes

 Weight this am - 130.2

Oh please keep on going.   

Sorting costumes.   Learning lines.  Updating the script so Mark has a clean copy to work with.  That's where today is going. 

Sorting & Memorizing

 Weight this am - 130.6

Officially one year from my very first shot. 
8/7/24 - 189
8/7/25 - 130.6

Well, that's better.   If this could continue that would be awesome.

Sorted and put away all the extra pieces and props.   Now I just have to do costumes.   I say just but that's a mother of a project.   

Loaded all of  Act III but section 10.   That's the longest bit but it's broken into 3 distinct beats and it's really only like 11 lines...which isn't that much when you consider Toby...lol.   Working on that tomorrow so I should be all loaded by the weekend.   Then it's just ironing it all in. 

Week 52

 Weight this am - 131.2

Well FINALLY.   

The last time I had a weekly weigh-in under 132 was July 9th - a MONTH ago.   Hopefully this finally breaks the stall!

I am almost off book for Puck.   Just Act III Scene 2 left to load in. 

Happy Birthday Mom - Last Day of Week 51

 Weight this am - 131.6

Ordered costume stuff for Puck.  Saw my mom at the pool for her birthday.   I should really swim more. 

Puck Rehearsal

 Weight this am - 131.6

That's a bit better

Character work with Sean today.   This is going to be such fun.  I'm excited. 

Sunday

 Weight this am - 132.4

For Fuck's Sake.   I'm so tired of this!

Saturday

 Weight this am - 131.8

I'll be so happy when I don't see 132 again.   

It's August Now

 Weight this am - 132.0

I can't seem to get away from 132.   ugh.   We should've been with the boys now too.   I'm so sad that didn't happen.   Working on memorizing Puck now.   This one will go quickly.

Finished cleaning the bathroom.   Now all the main upstairs rooms are done and clean except Mark's office.  That is piled with all the stuff that needs to be sorted.   I have a few weeks to get through all of that before we have to empty it and floor that room.   That will be something.  Once that is done, though, the whole upstairs will be complete.   Then's it's on to the first floor
