    Damage Control

    It's a cleaning weekend for me. Saturday I did the living room. Today is dining room and Monday will be kitchen and foyer. I'm having book club here on Tuesday night. Nothing seems to motivate me to dust as much as having people over! Sounds like you're back in a good spot physically to get...

    It hasn't taken long to get back into the home life groove. Happy Birthday to Dave! I did see my dad and and mom last Saturday for a short visit. He's spending a lot of time at doctor's offices now. Otherwise they are fine. I've been focusing on 2 lower body, 1 upper body, and 1 total body...

    Yes! I'm hoping he does decide to move to Colorado. He wants to move somewhere he can get some decent fishing in. He tried deep sea and caught nothing. He also wants to start putting money into a house instead of renting. He had a lot of questions for Dan and I about how long we dated before...

    We got back late Wednesday and had a great time seeing Aaron and meeting Shivani. We did a lot of firsts-had fresh mussels, went to a comedy club show, took a ferry ride in the bay, and enjoyed a fire pit. Aaron is talking about moving to Colorado so he can buy a house-time will tell...

    Damage Control

    I ended up getting more of the sides layered. I really don't like to pull my hair up or put it up very much. I hate it getting into my eyes when it's windy out. I am slowly getting shorter and shorter and more of a mussed up look with the layers. I don't have bangs right now-it took so long...

    How is your week? How did your appointment go on Monday? Any relief yet? I saw the lower body workout from STS 2.0 and it looked really good. I might have to break down and order some dvds in the future. Going to get my hair trimmed today. I'm wearing it shoulder length these days instead...

    OMG-I can't believe what the hail did to your house! That is awful. I'm glad insurance will cover it. I wish I had a bird nest close by! My BIL has one right outside his dining room window and I've been watching the mama lay on the eggs when we're over there. This weekend was good. I got...

    Damage Control

    How are you feeling? Setbacks are so frustrating. Have you found any stretches that can help? Mother's Day was fine. I chatted with DS2 and even walked up to see my mom for a few minutes. It's just not the same relationship anymore. Otherwise, everything in my life is going pretty good! I...

    Hi! I'm sorry to hear about your hip. For me, it was a sacroiliac joint issue. My leg was "jammed" into my pelvis (from stepping? from potholes on bike rides?) Gradually the pain got worse and worse. It ached a lot and I even had pain when putting my foot on the gas pedal and found driving...

    Hi! Sorry to be MIA for so long. Speaking of haircuts I went to a long asymmetrical bob. So I kept the length in front and made it shoulder length all the way around. I really like it. I can work out without having to put my hair up and it dries so much faster! I think I want the back a...

    All is good here. Getting to walk to work all three days has been nice. I've just been picking workouts based on what I feel like doing. Getting in weight work 4 times a week. I kind of like doing an upper body on Saturday, legs Sunday, and a shorter upper body on Mondays (with focus on back...

    I've been doing spring cleaning and getting the back porch ready for the warmer weather! DH is scraping, priming, and painting the bottom half of one side of our house. We got dirt and mulch and are hoping to get some little plants soon to start the herb garden and I decided to do a container...

    Not much working out for me this past week. I hurt my back last week doing something and took some time off! We're going to get the back porch ready today-hose it off, put the rug out, etc. Also going to try my hand at an herb garden (again). I'm looking forward to being outside more and...

    I think walking is the best exercise! Glad your foot is feeling better and will only continue to improve. I'm not having any weight loss success. I like to cook, bake, and eat too much, I think. How is Dave enjoying being retired from work? I find my two days at home just enough. If I lost...

    Finally got a decent week to walk to and from work! It took me a few days last week to get over the spring forward time change, but now my energy levels are back to normal. Today is a total body and walk day. Also-English National Team plays Italy's team in a Euro qualifier. Other than that...

    We had a great time in Pittsburgh. The game was so fun! I wish we lived closer and could be part of a team community. The rink was smaller in person than I expected and the players were bigger! Friday we meandered and had a nice meal out. We got over 10,000 steps a day not driving in a...

    I hope you are all feeling better! Starting track in winter is just crazy-I hope there's not too many cold days left for runs. I used to help out with the track meets when I was working in the schools. I loved watching all the events. The kids were so supportive of each other. I hope your...

    We went to see a movie last night-All Quiet on the Western Front. It was really well done and I'm rooting for it to be best picture. We've been watching a lot of the Oscar nominees the past few weeks and DH wanted to see this one on the big screen. If nothing else, the sound effects were...

    I hope you're feeling better! I've been thinking about what to move on to from RWH. RWH is so good and has so many premixes. it's quick and effective for sure! I honestly don't know what to tell you besides doing what you feel like doing. Maybe your body is asking for two upper and two...

    Yoga was great. There were not too many people and it was laid back and relaxing. The moves were pretty basic and I actually practiced the sun salutation yesterday after my weights to try to get my breath better coordinated. I did Yoga with Adrianne on You Tube-I swear You Tube has...
