I know I have at least 5 years left to work, but right now I'm really looking forward to it. My job has just become so stressful and there doesn't seem to be an end in sight. Some days/weeks are better than others. Overall it is just a lot. One of the gals I work with that lives in Arizona...

Well my bloodwork results from my physical on Wednesday are in. My cholesterol is still high. Waiting to see what my Dr. says. I also had a mammogram yesterday and those results came back negative. Next up is a colonoscopy. With my brothers colorectal cancer diagnosis, my dr. recommends a...

Well I'm back from vacation, and it was wonderful. We spent one day at the beach, a 4 minute walk from the resort. The girls and I played in the waves for a while. I did get up early 2 days to go catch the sunrise on the beach. The temperature was perfect. We did do a bit of site seeing and...

It's finally Thursday. Whew it's been a very hectic couple of weeks. I work tonight, but I'm off tomorrow. I have a haircut appt and that's all that is planned for the weekend. Since I have to work tonight, I only worked 1/2 day and was able to go grocery shopping this afternoon. The girls...

I'm back on that stressful project for August. So much work with daily and weekly deadlines. So far so good though. I had to work Thursday night last week and will be working Thursday and Friday night this week. I may have enough hours to take a 4 day weekend the following week. My...

Not much to report. I haven't been feeling well so I haven't been working out. I've been having a lot of stomach pain, not sure what is causing it. It has been bad enough that I met with my surgeon today. I have to schedule a CT scan of abdomen and pelvis. Then based on what that shows, I...

This week has been crazy. There was microsoft breach over the weekend. I worked 16 hours on Monday, and some worked more than that. I only had to work 2 hours this morning, but have to work for may an hour tonight. I'm off tomorrow and am looking forward to it! Workouts have been a bit...

Oh, I didn't realize a whole week had gone by. We had an all hands a week ago Friday at the end of the day. Many of us thought is was going to be layoffs. Thankfully it wasn't, it just a reorg. There is a lot going on at work. I was hoping July was going to be full of workouts, it hasn't. I...

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...
