40's - week of June 5th

[fitover40]

Today was GS CT. Raining here today, nice change of pace, hopefully tomorrow will be cool and cloudy for our hike.

Ronne, DH and I used to have a great pension plan with our job, however they changed it in the late 90's and I was eliminated from it because I was too young at the time (talk about reverse discrimination). DH thankfully is still with the defined pension plan so that helps a LOT! So we had always planned for retirement at my 30 yrs of service (and his 34 yrs of service since he had 4 yrs on me). With all the pension changes for me and the recession we are still close to on track, although a couple years behind where we wanted to be because of the kids college expenses. 3 more years and the youngest is out of college. The weather here went from needing jeans/long sleeves to super hot. Hardly a nice inbetween 70ish time.

Hi to everyone else!

Good Morning,

I am headed to the dr. at 11:45 to see about the dizziness and I woke up with a migraine so not a good day. Its cloudy and suppose to rain here today and again in the 90's, I thought it was suppose to be in the 80's today.

Ronne-I hear you on the blahs it has not been a good week for me.

Lisa-I would love to retire but I to have a mortgage and paying on student loans. The oldest took out parent loans and never finished school and she is not making the payments we are and my youngest took out loans that we are paying back on but she at least finished.

Morning girls! Today was S&H shoulders and the bike. Next week I might try doing this was the GS. Kids home and slept in, at least no one has said they are bored yet! Lisa, I hear you about, if he's not working! I like to hang out with him too much! Ronne, hope the weather changes for you, I will send you some of our warmth! Hi to Murphy and Roxie, I need to go torture some children! Mary

Good Evening,

I found out today that I have a sinus infection and fluid in my right ear so I am on antibiotics and Allegra D so hopefully I will have more energy next week to workout.

 

[scubagirl]

Roxie, hope you feel better soon. Having a sinus infection is miserable, especially in this heat!

 

[fitover40]

Roxie, no wonder you don't feel like working out! I don't have a reason for not wanting to I hope you feel better soon!

Good Morning,

Hi everyone

No workout for me today as I've been on a school trip with DD's class. We went to a languages morning which was quite interesting.

Roxie - no wonder you've not felt like working out. Give yourself a break! Happy anniversary by the way.

Lisa - I'm not very good at planning for retirement. Reckon I'll have to work till I'm 70!!

Mary - did you give the kids a good going over?! How nice to have started the holidays.

I had a cooked lunch at the school which I don't normally do. I'm now feeling very sleepy .... Have a good weekend everyone.

Happy Friday! Today did S&H tri's and bi's, maybe a little cardio later? I don't know yet. Lisa, your rain is here! I am glad I got the lawn mowed last night. Roxie, hope you feel better. Happy Anniversary! Ronne, have a good weekend! Are you taking a nap now? Murphy, where are you? Well, off to Walmart, how come everthing always runs out at the same time? Mary

Hi everyone, today did the long hike with DH, 9+ miles. He's telling me that I can do my long hikes with my friend (her and I go next Tuesday), and he will do the short ones. I think deep down though he feels good about it. We are pleasantly tired. And de-stressed! And we feel so accomplished! Here's the link to the trail we did, near upper left is the park map, we did it all Apex Park - Open Space - Jefferson County, CO

Roxie, Happy Anniversary! 28, wow, we just finished number 25

Ronne, school lunch? was it any good? Maybe your lunches are better than the ones I had as a kid

Mary, happy to share the rain we couldn't have asked for a nicer day for a hike, morning clouds giving way to sun and highs only 75 or so, perfect!

 

[fitover40]

Taking a rest day, my body is just plain, ole tired from that hike. DH has lots of DOMS and is more sore than me, hee hee.

Good Morning,

I took the dog for a 2 mile walk this morning and then did a stretch now to clean house and go grocery shopping.

Lisa-that is funny. I can't believe we have been married 28 years, but we also grew up together and dated 5 years before we ever got married. We are what you call high school sweethearts.
