Commit to get Fit & Lean January 2016 - 2024

Good evening,

We got in AL late last night. The RV has been here for 3 months. Today we cleaned everything top to bottom to put in storage when we get back. I am sure, I will clean it again before we head home, lol. I did managed to get a walk in with Sadie. I also did JS UB Push/Pull. Tomorrow we heading home. It will take us 2 day‘s to get home.

Debbie - we did get snow on Wednesday in TN. Glad your implant went well today. Sorry about your BIL sister.

Cookie - thank you. We will leave tomorrow morning. You guys must have lots of rain. We had beautiful weather today.

I am super tired. Good night.
 
Hi,

Today we went to the funeral mass. After we went to the gym to walk & I did some leg exercises. I'm not a big fan of walking at the gym but it's been too cold again.

Belinda - Great to hear you picked up the RV. It's funny how parts of TN get snow. Great getting in walks & JS UB Push/Pull. Do you stop at RV parks on the way home? Safe travels the next couple of days.

Cookie - I'm sure you are getting the cold weather too.

Goodnight:)
 
Hi,

Today was a walk at the gym & Cathe Gym Style Back, Shoulder & Tri's. We are going to dinner tonight. It is so cold out :oops:

Have a great weekend:)
 
'Evening! Just got in the door from NYC. Went for the day. Saw the tree at Rock Center and some store windows and heard Handel's Messiah at the Philharmonic. It was so amazing! Love seeing how it all was put together into a performance. Yesterday was another outdoor walk.

Deb, sorry about your family's loss. It is never easy. Hope you enjoyed tonight's dinner.

Belinda, be safe with your travels. Hope it all goes smoothly.
 
'Evening! Visited my uncle and sister today and we also went holiday shopping. It's so hard to know what to get my kids and their partners, but we found few things. Took a rest day from exercise.

Deb, are you doing holiday preps this weekend.

Belinda, how is the return trip?
 
Hi,

Today was a rest day. I'm still decorating and need to organize my downstairs tomorrow. So much to do around the holidays.

Belinda - Hope all is going well.

Cookie - A day in NYC sounds wonderful, was it crowded? You are right the hardest part is what to get everyone for Christmas. I guess that is why I like Thanksgiving better.

Goodnight:)
 
'Evening! JS workout today and a long walk. It was freezing!

Deb, do all that decorating should count as a workout! It wasn't too crowded except around Times Square and in front of 30 Rock.

Belinda, hope you are doing well and resting.
 
Good evening,

Sorry I haven’t checked in yesterday. We just came home to snow. We ended up staying in TN for 2 nights due to the steps not working going outside. I couldn’t get out of the RV unless I would jump, not with my bad knees. We had a mechanic came to the campground and fix it, actually he didn’t do anything except bang on the electrical wires. Go figure! We still going to have to get that checked out so it doesn’t happened again. We were in surrounded by mountains in TN, I couldn’t find a Walmart to buy a latter big enough so we can use it in case that happens again. My list of buying things for the RV getting big, lol. It’s always good to have one. We had beautiful weather in TN yesterday. I did JS LB while I we were waiting for the mechanic to show up and got in a nice walk. Plus, we cleaned the entire RV for storage. It was in the 60’s. We had a bad traffic. We only move 9 miles in 1:45 hours. Not sure what happened? We have snow. it’s also slippery outside, no fun driving an RV.

Tomorrow I will do JS until we leave on Wednesday for our Christmas family vacation to Fl. We decided not to give gifts, instead we all go on vacation. I still need to clean my house. I also have a doctors appointment tomorrow afternoon. I probably will not do JS workouts, I will spent time with my kids. Workouts can wait until I came back, right?

Did I mention how much I LOVE the doors they put on the bunk beds?

Good night. I will catch up tomorrow morning.

'Evening! Actually just hopped on to see if Belinda was alright, and am very thankful she is. No workout today - had a massage. That was a workout. I might try to squeeze in an Essentrics yet to further help my poor aging body.

Deb, are you doing the seven fishes again this year. We're going to have two separate dinners, since everyone can't be together at one time.

Belinda, very relieved and happy to hear you're okay. Enjoy time with your family!
 
Good evening,

I saw my Rheum today about my shoulder/biceps and RP. He did an ultrasound it showed a rotator cuff tendinopathy, Biceps tendinitis and arthritis. It looked like a have a huge walnut in my shoulder with inflammation. No tear, He gave me a steroid shot to bring down the swelling. I will get my range of motion back. My RP is acting up again. I have Costochondritis (RP) and ear. He will run a test next time I have my infusion to see if the dose is enough. I also have to see the podiatrist for my burning feet and pain. Please sent me positive thoughts it’s not diabetes.

We are leaving on Wednesday and fly out of DC on Tuesday early in the morning to FL. I haven’t packed my suitcase yet or I picked out a dress to wear for the wedding in Fl. I ordered 2 dresses haven’t tried them on yet. Which my burning feet I have no clue what shoes to wear

Where is Debbie?

Cookie - awww….that is so sweet of you to check if I am alright. Sorry I didn’t mean to worry you. So much going on with the RV. We have to winterize it tomorrow and store it. I hope you enjoyed your massage. I am in need for one, lol. LOL, about your aging body. If it’s not one thing, it’s another.



Good night.
 
Hi,

Sorry I didn’t check in yesterday, so much preparing to host for Christmas Eve (DH’s family). I have been walking at the gym & short weight workouts when I’m there. Too distracted at home to do workouts. My house looks like a bomb hit it, the opposite of the calm before the storm. We have a handyman coming to replace lightbulbs which are 20 feet on the ceiling. Our ladder is so old, we don’t trust it. DH almost slipped on unexpected ice this morning.

I asked the kids if they needed us to babysit and they asked us for 2x before Christmas. Maybe I shouldn’t have filled my plate;)

Belinda - Happy to hear you are home safe. I love the doors looks like a house. Sending positive vibes your feet feel better. You will have a great Christmas with your family in FL. Good news your rotator cuff isn’t torn. You have so much going on, you need the vacation.

Cookie - You are brave to walk outside, I miss it. A massage is a workout! I think I’m going to need to do 2 Christmas dinners with my Mom because my younger DS works and my Mom hasn’t seen the baby yet. We will do seven fishes but it is a cold seafood salad I buy at an Italian store. It is difficult to find places that cater fish dishes so that is what I am working on.

Goodnight:)
 
Evening,

been on the phone with my sisters in Germany through out the day. Tomorrow they doing a CT to see if the cancer speed through out her body. Praying it’s not. I am so worried about my sister. I hope it’s something they can operate on or chemotherpy.

I dId JS TB today. That’s all I had the patience for. Good night.
 
Evening! A long walk during lunch today. We went to see a play this evening - a mash up of A Christmas Carol and Sherlock Holmes, Sherlock Carol. It was alright, but I am a huge Dickens fans so that makes it all good.

Deb, they want you to babysit two times before Christmas! Wow, you lucky person, and boy are they fortunate to have sitters nearby. Hope your dh is alright. I hate the disorder from prepping and taking down for the holidays. It drives me crazy. Can you get some of the other dishes catered also?

Belinda, very thankful you're okay and am praying for your ds. That is terrible news and so sad. Hope the shot helps your rotator cuff, and that it is not diabetes causing your foot problems.
 
Hi,

Today went to the gym early with DH so we could go babysit. This was the 1st time he was alert and awake. We were able to go for a walk outside because it was nice out for December.

Belinda - I'm so sorry you and your sisters are going through this. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Hopefully with technical advancements in medicine it will be helpful. Thankfully they are doing further testing so soon.

Cookie - It sounds like an interesting play. Great getting a walk in at lunch. I am looking into catering for dinner and preparing some easy appetizers. It's hard to enjoy yourself if you are busy cooking:)

Goodnight:)
 
'Evening! Another nice day in December for a walk.

Deb, yes, I agree with not being able to enjoy having folks over if I'm swamped with the cleaning, cooking and serving! How is your little man doing? Amazing how fast they grow and change.

Belinda, sorry about your sister. Meant to mention how nice those doors are! Thinking of you.
 
Evening,

No workout to report today, I had to clean and pack my suitcase. I didn’t sleep well last night. We are staying at DD’s condo in DC. Flying out early tomorrow morning. Looking forward to warmer weather.

The cancer didn’t spread. We are all so happy for the good news. They ran a lot of tests today. Tomorrow the cancer team in the hospital will let my sister now when they are getting the tumor out of her colon. I feel so much better today knowing the cancer didn’t spread.

Debbie - thank you for the thoughts and prayers about my sister. My sister is so thankful for the good news. She will find out tomorrow what treatment she will be getting. Great job with your workouts.

Cookie - thank you about my sister and kind words. We love the doors too. Great job with your walk today.

Good night. I hope I will get a workout in tomorrow.
 
Hi,

Today was a walk outside it was nice out & zoom yoga. I haven't done yoga in awhile it was nice to do especially this time of year.

Belinda - Great news about your sister! It is also good she is meeting with her cancer team so quickly. I wish all of you the best. You are getting out of town right before the cold comes back this weekend:) Safe travel and have lots of fun.

Cookie - It was a nice day for a walk, we will be hibernating over the weekend;) It is amazing how fast they grow. You must be looking forward to Christmas with your Granddaughter.

Goodnight:)
 
Evening, we are in Cape Coral. Beautiful weather and beautiful beaches. We have to stay one night at a hotel, the house we rented isn’t ready until tomorrow. We had screaming 2 little ones on the first plane. The parents didn’t care if they screamed the entire flight. I don’t get it? Our second flight from Atlanta to Florida was a great. I got in a lot of steps. I am so tired.

Debbie- thank you

I will be feeling better tomorrow morning. I promise I will catch up on personals.
 
'Evening! Just finished up a meting,and I'm beat. Got in a short weight workout today. Some of my kids are coming in tomorrow to celebrate the holidays.

Deb, I'm going to try to hibernate as much as I can this weekend also. Yoga is a great idea to do at this time of year.

Deb, very glad to hear the news about your sister. You must be relieved. Hope you got some sleep. That's terrible about the children on the flight.
