Oi there!
Here comes the wind of change!

Hoi!



It is a shame, I still struggle to wake up and the cat is not helping at all!

• Challenge Cardio Before Breakfast - Day 7.
• Exercise of the day: 20 Burpees. (I bloody hate burpees)

Also, as the temperature dropped a bit, I rode my bicycle to work. Oh yeah it felt so good. Brussels is not the best city to bike commuting, but when you know the less crowded street, it is so refreshing (when, not so much actually).

Be seeing you!

Good Morning Gals and Pals,

I misbehave deeply with a pack of cookies (Delacre's Biarritz for the connoisseur). I feel bad today. And more: an other wake up mishap.

• The Olympian - Day 8 (level 2).
• Challenge Cardio Before Breakfast - Day 8. (I hate burpees)

It is the middle of the week! Enjoy it. It used to be my favorite day of the week from 1986 to 1999.

 

[Nevetharine]

You feel bad because of the cookies? Eh. I chalk it up to a refeed day. But then, that's why I'm not getting anywhere.

 

[Froud]

Well, I confess that I ate the all pack, and rather compulsively just before dinner time. That is what I do when I am under stress for no reason.

Join the team of comfort-eaters! I know I should breathe through it instead, or go for a walk. But food always wins.

 

[Froud]

I can let it win. I have arthrosis in my both hips, if I gain too much weight, it will hurt a great deal. I still have to shed 18 kilos to have a balanced weight.

 

[TopNotch]

Cats aren't there to help you get up. They are there to wake you up when it's too early, then settle down on you and go to sleep 15 minutes before you have to get up!

 

[OJJJEM]

I don't condemn eating cookies... I condemn eating cookies without milk. You can quote me on that, too... maybe sell it as a bumper sticker and make some moneys... HAHAHA!

 

[Froud]

@TopNotch rest assure that if my beautiful Monty (Montgomery Mayonnaise in full) is no help for get up, I am really glad she is part of my life and show the world you can sleep 23 hours a day. She is kind enough to play silently under the bed and she never woke me up. She waits I am awake to cuddle

@OJJJEM I understand but it is not that kind of cookie. It is a belgian 'biscuit': a thin biscuit with a thinner layer of belgian (of course) chocolate and coco flakes. It is more for tea time of the coffee at 5pm. A delight.

 

[lofivelcro]

Oh god, my colleague back when I worked in Germany often brought those biscuits. They are.... dangerous. I never bought them myself, because it's hard to stop when you open the box. Devillish stuff

 

[Froud]

Good Morning Bees!

[Froud]

Thank you @Whirly @lofivelcro @Sif_Shepard @CODawn @JCU @Numbat @Hbomb

Kitten day care is the solution to everything it works with dogs as well ^^

Must be just an annoying cold, I still have the head a bit numb, and it looks looks like I swallow a kilo of pebbles. The worst is I woke up every hour last night and that leaves me not at my best.

That's why I have just done the exercise of the day 60' balance hold.
But I have cleaned the apartment (while listening to a boring meeting.

It has been tow days in a rows with the most perfect shave. I have been wet-shaving for year, but I am reaching the best only now.

Enjoy your day!

 

[lofivelcro]

Shaving with a blade and soap is the best method and you can't convince me otherwise

 

[Froud]

yeah it is Thursday!

[lofivelcro]

I have an old cutthroat razor I got from my master, who also taught me how to shave. Never let me down, will probably last another hundred years
I tried once to use one of those fancy multi-blade razors, with 5! blades, and I was shocked at the result. Never again
I'll have to look up what a shavette is, though, never heard that one.

That being said:
Congrats on your 90 days streak! I know, 100 is the next badge, but 90 days is 3 months, which is a quarter of a year, so it makes a nice streak.

 

[Froud]

@lofivelcro you are a man of taste. I am still contemplating the idea to get a straight razor. Perhaps for Christmas. My dad was using a dumb and dull cheap rason. I bought him a safety razor this year I like to play with those toys ^^

Thank you mate for the pep talk!

It was a slow weekend as I did the 2nd covid vaccine booster. I was not too full of energy last Friday (hence my silence). So I kept with DD for the sake of doing something.

NB @Froud the link from your profile to this thread doesn't work.

Well, I confess that I ate the all pack, and rather compulsively just before dinner time. That is what I do when I am under stress for no reason.

This may help a little: https://www.community.darebee.com/threads/addiction.174/#post-3387

 

[Froud]

Thank you @SkorpionUK I had not noticed I will amend that!

@Damer Thank you very much! I This is very useful!

 

[lofivelcro]

I had a box of Biarritz biscuits in the mail today. I thought of you, and the next time I was back in the here and now, the box was gone. Truly devillish stuff.
Interesting that @Damer went back to your post today. Coincidence?
