I'm so looking forward to retirement, it just isn't going to be soon enough. I have another long stretch of days off. I took off 8/31-9/7. The plan was take the girls and son somewhere on vacation, it didn't work out with one of the girls starting college and the other is working 2 jobs now...

It's been awhile since we checked in. I was able to walk yesterday, but not much going on the 5 days before. One of the lakes has a bunch of dead fish, either from the heat or drought. It smelled really bad. Ugh. Work was pretty stressful last week, I was on-call and had to work Friday day...

Still very hot here. I'm sick of being inside so much, but it's just miserable to be outside. My workouts have picked up a bit, got in 6 workouts including one 3 mile walk. This will be a busy week and I'm call this week. I did a couple oldies-Gym Styles. It's nice revisiting some old...

It's been miserably hot here and it is challenging being stuck inside. I did manage to go for an early walk yesterday morning, first time in several weeks. I've been using the other platform for full body circuits, they include kb swings, dragon press, clean and press, squat and press, snatch...

I've missed a fair amount of workout over the last 2 weeks. We had our friends come and stay with last weekend. Just busy at work and not able to fit in anything. Pretty much the same for last week. I did workout yesterday-full body, and today was legs. Hoping this work week is less...

It was a short week for since we got the 3rd off. That was nice. I am on call, so far no issues. Somehow I missed that this was my quarterly juice cleanse-so I'm doing that this weekend. It actually works out fine since we don't have any plans anyway. As far as workouts, I only 2 workouts...

How are you Beth? I'm sure you've been keeping up with the world cup. I came back from the Condo yesterday. DH has been dealing with a kidney stone, so I went up by myself for a few days. The temp was in the 70's and perfect. I walked morning on the path around the reservoir getting 10-20K...

I haven't been sleeping, only getting 4-5 hours and its really impacting my life. We had a big upgrade on Frinday night. Thankfully it was my off Friday and I did not volunteer to do testing on Saturday. Honestly, I didn't feel bad about. I have not logged into work once this weekend, and...

Only 2 weeks of work before we head to the mountains. I'm really looking forward to it! Work is stressful and I've noticed my resting heart rate has been steadily increasing. I honest think it is due to the stress. Last week wasn't great for workouts. I did lift 2 days and walk 3 days...

It's been a good week for me workout wise. I've lifted weights and walked most days. The weather has been very nice. Oh, it was nice to have a 3 day work week! I went to Costco yesterday and don't have much planned for today or tomorrow. I do need to clean my office, the filing is piling...

The girls graduation was this morning. It was a nice ceremony. I went to one of their friends where they were having a small graduation party. It was very nice. No workout for today. I may go for a walk later today if it doesn't get too hot. Yesterday I walked over 6 miles. The weather...

My back is finally feeling better. I think it was some kind of SI joint/piriformis and nerve issue. Glad it is feeling better though. My workout was STS D27-SBT and a bit of abs. I have appt on Wednesday and Thursday, but should be able to do legs on Friday. Part-time work is worth...

Another week has past. Work is horrible. Yesterday was my off Friday, but I had to work last night. We had issues and are all working this morning. I'm just so tired, and am really considering retiring sooner rather than later. We usually meet with our financial planner in August, but I'm...

I tweaked my back getting up from desk-of all things. I think it is due to so much sitting-on this stressful project. I just don't have the time to get up and walk around as much as I should. I've been icing it off and on today and doing some hip mobility exercises for the SI joint...

Well I'm back on that stressful project, just as bad as I imagined. So glad I'm only committed for May and July. June is our upgrade so I will be back with my team. Looking forward to that and I also have a week off in the mountains planned for June. I'm also looking for a long weekend trip...
