Great job on the weight! I'd have logged yesterday, heh :) Good luck with the cars and the bears!

Sounds scary. Bears are so dangerous if you spook them. Glad you stayed calm. Panicking would not have beeb good.
Take care and watch out for those bears.

Thank you to all of you! I appreciate that all of you know that bears are scary and not our 'buddies' as seen in many of our cartoons. So far so good on the bear front! The one car on the other hand is having more issues. I will find out more today but what is becoming clear is that it is not going to be a simple fix.

Glad you're safe, that was scary. Have you considered carrying bear spray when you're working outside? My older son lives in Fairbanks and has a cabin in the hills, and I always worry about bears, though he's been there for almost thirty years now. You just never know.

My sister also suggested bear spray. My daughter suggested a dog as she knows I will not have a gun. I haven't ruled the bear spray out however it was the second bear in over 30 years and it doesn't seem to have returned. My sister suggested that I have bear spray stashed in some of the out buildings just in case.

I will have to look into where bear spray is available. Maybe it will make me more confident to know it is there. That might be worth it just to have a bit of confidence on this score.

That is really frightening! I am glad the bear wasn't interested in you. Stay safe!!

Carol, great report and reflection on what works for you and the changes you are making often weekly. I really like the moving of eating meals to the kitchen. Mindful eating with music and sensation. Also your flexibility and gentle understanding that when we go to restaurants we can not always get what we want— so to be less rigid and enjoy the best you can. Btw should I send you the keto peanut butter cheese cake recipe?

Thank you Alix! Eating in the kitchen has been a real change in habit for me. First of all, it is easier to eat a meal when not trying to prop it up on my knees! Also the idea of eating and not attending to something else makes for a much more enjoyable experience.
