Good Morning, Everyone!
The concert went very well.
I mentioned to our director the possibility of putting some of it on You-Tube. She really liked the idea, but I don't know if she got anyone to take videos. I did notice someone with a phone-camera taping some of the baritone solo, but I wasn't sure. I have no idea how much money we were able to raise for the soup kitchen. It's a free concert, but we do ask for voluntary donations. The people are usually very generous.
I got up this morning with a very painful upper back, so I think I need to skip the workout today. I took Advil already, and the pain is somewhat less, but maybe I need to continue to take it every 6 hours or so today and see what that does for me.
Linda, I hope you enjoyed the game and had a great time.
Have a great day everyone.

I woke up feeling really great. I had a headache for the last three days...started out as a sinus headache and graduated to a migraine headache. It seems whenever I stay at a hotel my allergies are horrible and I end up with swollen eyes, swollen nose membranes and then I have asthma attacks in the evenings so I don't sleep very well. Must be the molds and who knows what else. Anyway...I took my migraine medication yesterday evening, went to bed early and woke up feeling refreshed.
I did Cathe's Gym Style Chest & Triceps and really enjoyed the workout.
Magnolia - Hope your upper back starts to feel better! It's smart you are resting and hopefully the advil will help reduce the pain. Glad your concert went well...I'm sure it was an exhilarating experience.

Thanks Joan for getting us started.
Linda so who won? I am so terrible when the boys were home I would know all the scores to everything. Now, I just can't seem to keep up. 7 flights of steps sounds like a good little workout!
Magnolia -- I hope someone was able to record it. That would be so exciting.
Hit the treadmill again today followed by upper body free weights. I can't seem to get "into" anything else right now. Maybe when I have more time. Busy,busy,busy right now. Speaking of busy, I need to grab a shower and hit the door. Have a good one ladies!

Jann I can relate. I can't seem to get started doing any wo lately. I plan to jump on treadmill later tonight.
Magnoli Hope the advil worked.
Linda I watched the end of the game just to see how you did. Yea Navy.
That's strange about the hotel room. You must hate to travel or does the allergy always kick in?
Calories eaten today 1585.

Good morning, everyone!
Well, my problem is that I am still having pain and am afraid I will make it worse if I work out. At least I can move, and the pain is now confined to the lower part of my rib cage on the right side. Still taking the Advil. If the pain is still there by the weekend, I'm going to see the doctor.
Linda, I also have severe allergies. There's not only mold in those hotel rooms, there could also be dust mites. I am sorry you had that headache, those can really be miserable. Glad you feel better.
My final grade for the course came yesterday, I managed an A, so we celebrated last night.
Take care & have a great day!

Magnolia I am sorry about your back pain. I hope the advil works for you.
Joan Your calories are really good.
Linda hotel rooms can be nasty. Glad you are feeling better.
Well, I had to go to a dermatologist yesterday for a routine checkup. She wants to take off a couple of mole's from my back. She said they don't look bad yet, it's just to be safe. I wear UPF clothing and sunscreen when I work out in the yard (most of the time). Some things are just unavoidable.
No workout yet. Trying to catch up on stuff this morning still.

Hi everyone,
I did Cathe's Low Impact Circuit premix #1 this morning and really enjoyed it. I just got this DVD and I burned a good amount of calories.
Jann - Navy won! This was the first time I got to see Navy beat Army at a live game. It was great. It made up for the headache I was experiencing...the fresh air felt good.
Magnolia - Great job on getting that A! I know it's a great feeling after working so hard. Hope your back starts feeling better soon.
I received an email from my youngest sister this morning letting me know that hospice has taken a more active role in caring for Mom. I plan to visit her this Sunday....I saw her on Thanksgiving day and she has lost a lot of weight. I need to spend more time at her bedside before the inevitable happens...I'm feeling very guilty for not being there now. My sisters and Dad need a reprieve from caring for Mom...Dad is exhausted and of course my sisters are dealing with the situation as best they can. Needless to say...I'm kind of weepy today.

Good Morning, Everyone!
I was doing so well yesterday. By noon, there was no pain in my back and that lasted all afternoon. Then last night while I was baking tea cakes, I forgot myself, reached up to a high shelf and over stretched whatever muscle was giving me problems, and now I am not only taking Advil, but icing my back as well. LOL. Well, got too much work to do to take any time off now, so if I have to get a back brace, I will.
Linda, I'm so sorry to hear about your Mother. You and your family will certainly be in my prayers.
Cathy, I love pecan pie a little too much. I'll bet yours is fantastic.
Have a great day, ladies.

Hi Everyone,
This morning I did Cathe's Gym Style Legs - Timesaver #2. My triceps are still sore from Monday. I wonder how sore I'm going to be from today's workout.
Magnolia - Sorry to hear about your back. Hope it starts feeling better soon!
I love pecan pie! Hope we have some on Christmas Day.
I will be visiting Mom this Sunday to see how she is doing. If things are really getting bad I may decide to stay at my sister's to be with Mom and to give my Dad some rest and Mom some company. Just hope I can be emotionally strong for her. Mom is so worried about how we all are feeling.

Good Morning,
I did Cathe's Gym Style Back, Shoulders, & Biceps Timesaver this morning. I'm sore from yesterday's workout. Cathe's workouts sure gets the muscles at every angle that other workouts do not do. I wonder how sore I'm going to be tomorrow.
They're calling for snow this weekend. I hope not!

Hi, Y'All.
Still having pain in my back. It's a little better, I am taking Advil every 6 hours or so and icing my back about every 2 or 3 hours. We have a sleep number bed, and today cranked it up to a much firmer number. I was able to go to rehearsal tonight, so that's something. But if there is little or no improvement tomorrow, I'm considering seeing if I can get an appointment with my doctor.
No word on whether the concert on Sunday was video'd for You Tube, but at last count, we raised at least $3,000 for the soup kitchen. They're not finished counting yet, either.
Have a great night, my friends.

Hi ladies,
Linda so sorry about your mom.
My mil has been in the hospital for a week. She lives an 1 1/2 hrs from here. She had a bladder infection. The nursing home seems to let them get really bad. It's so sad because for the first couple of days she has hallucinations. She thought the IV holder was a man about to attack her. Bil moved it behind screen. She thought water pitcher was a small boy. Doctor is not sure but she may have also had a stroke. She was released today. I am happy my bil is so attentive to mil in nursing home. I would feel even more guilty for not visiting her more often.
My dm has had to stop radiation for a few days because of severe burn under her arm. I can't figure out if this is normal or why the burn is there rather than on the breast.
Saturday is my Christmas party at the house. I invite about 40 but I think we will have about 24 people. Tomorrow and Saturday morning I will do all the cooking.
Today was the last day of babysitting.
I did get 3 1/2 miles on treadmill Wednesday but nothing today.
Joan
