I want to practice retirement! How nice! It's nice to have a plan. They say you should retire to something, not from something. The retirement podcasts I listen to talk about having a plan for the first year of retirement. Plan trips etc, basically have a plan-schedule. I've been keeping...

My week was so much less stressful. That makes me happy. I am on call starting tomorrow though. I'm still continuing with STS, today was disc 10 CSB (2nd time through). Yesterday was disc 12, legs and my own abs. My strength is coming back, but still have a ways to go-especially with biceps...

Well we both must have had busy weeks. Hope all is well with you. What have you been up to? My workouts have been hit or miss recently. I requested to be assigned to other work instead of that stressful project. My boss reassigned me to other efforts for July. I'm so happy. I should ee...

I'm on that awful project. It just doesn't leave me much time for working out. We have daily meetings, daily deadlines, it's a lot and leaves me exhausted. I did workout Sat, Sun, Wed, Thursday. I guess that is better than nothing. I'm trying to decide if I want to pick back up with STS or...

I'm sure you are in the city this weekend. Enjoy time with your son! I was able to get in 5 weight workouts and walk around the lakes twice. Keeping on with STS for a while longer. I'm starting to be able to increase my 15's to 17's, so my strength is improving. I feel pretty good about...

So happy it's the weekend and I don't have any plans! I did CSB on Tuesday and walked on Wednesday and did glute work yesterday. Today will be Back & Triceps and tomorrow will be legs. It supposed to be in the 80's today and tomorrow. Not sure if I will walk or not.. Tomorrow I'll tackle...

I've been getting 4 or so weight workouts in each week. I'm feeling good about that. Today I did STS D4-CSB, my own abs and the extended stretch. I'm enjoying the db work. My left arm is so much weaker. Hopefully it will catch up soon. There was a break in the rain so I went walking as...

I completed STS Meso 1 Week 1 (twice through). Tomorrow I will start on week 2. I'm adding a second/leg glute day from the other platform. So I follow UB, Glute, UB, STS Legs then repeat for another week. Today was Disc 3-legs and my own ab work. I also mowed the lawn. I was hoping to walk...

I had to work on Saturday-it was 8 1/2 hours. Not what I was planning on. I didn't sleep well on Friday so I was so tired last night. I ended up going to bed at 8:30. This morning was STS Disc 3-legs, and a 3 mile walk around the lakes. The weather is so nice this morning. I'm planning on...

Today was my first day back to work. It was fine. The project manager (stressful project) already scheduled a meeting with me for Monday to see when I can start back on the project. I'm already dreading it. On the upside, my workouts are going pretty good. If something is pulling or causing...

Well I've been walking a lot lately and really enjoying the nice weather. It is raining today through Thursday. I'm not complaining though since we are always in a cyclical drought here in Colorado. This storm is even supposed to bring quite a bit of snow to the lower mountains. We'll take...

I'm recovery nicely from the gallbladder surgery. I have my followup today. My first back to work is scheduled for May 8th. It's so nice having some time off, especially now since I'm feeling so much better. I've been walking, even done the 3+ mile loop around the lakes a few times. At first...

Honestly, I feel pretty good. I'm a little sore, which is to be expected. I slept most of day after we got home from the hospital. I also slept off and on yesterday. I got up and showered this morning, and am drinking my hot tea. I had to follow a 24 hour clear liquid diet the day before...

I worked yesterday, but was was able to get out and enjoy the nice weather. We are expecting rain today, and we definitely need it. My surgery is at 11. I'm looking forward to getting rid of this pain. Sounds like I will be walking only for the next couple weeks. The weather should be...

I was feeling good enough to work out yesterday. I did a cardio/leg workout. Honestly, it was mostly weights, just a 5 minute warmup of skipping. My legs are a little sore today. I plan on doing upper body and abs today. We are going to my MIL's for Easter this afternoon. I'm bringing a...
