Jogglers October

Jane your new job is so exciting! Glad you had a good time at your 5+ k:)

I did 30 minutes of low impact cardio dance form the 10 minute solution series called Latin dance mix. It was fun.

Tricia did you get a workout today? How is your dog? I hope that your pet is not too smelly.o_O
 
Alisha - 70s sounds nice! Hope you were able to work out! Hope you had a lovely weekend!

Jane - That One Book thing sounds fun! Interesting story.

Tournament was fun. The weather wasn't as good as it was supposed to be. Chilly and we got rained on briefly a couple of times. We were supposed to go to Boston for the Head of the Charles on Sunday, but Peanut got sprayed by a skunk at 1 a.m. and I had to bathe her. It traumatized her, so she wouldn't sleep. She and I stayed up all night downstairs. We were exhausted. I spent the day washing laundry, airing out the house, Febreezing everything Peanut touched. We are getting rain from a nor'easter. Fine time for lots of rain - I'm off and now I can't go out and play golf. Going to try to play on Friday and Saturday.

Going to the Widow's Ball at the golf club tomorrow night and Stephen is taking me out to dinner on Saturday for my birthday. Busy, busy!

Have a great week ladies! Going to try to move my butt every day while I'm off! Wish me luck!
 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRICIA!!! Hope you have a great day and enjoy your time off -- rain or no rain!

I took a rest day yesterday. Today will be a 4 mile run. It has been beautiful here. It's in the 70's with lows in the 50's. The a/c is off and we usually don't put the heat on until it's much colder. My electric bill has already gone down by $20 from last month.

Tricia ~ Sorry to hear about Peanut. I think I would be traumatized too. I'm glad all is well now.

Alisha ~ The Latin dance mix workout sounds like fun although I am uncoordinated as they come.
 
TGIF!

Thanks for the birthday wish! I had a blast at the party Wednesday night. Stephen got me a little individual b-day cake with a candle and gave me my present. He's letting me get my paddleboard! We went to a shop on Friday morning and I got my paddle, but we are having to order the board. It's after season, so it's hard to find what I'm looking for right now. Will get a pic up when it finally comes! Hope I'm brave enough to try it out this fall before the temps get too cold!

I haven't done much of anything else all week after I got off on Tuesday. Played golf Friday and Saturday and Stephen to me out to dinner in Boston Saturday night. It was delicious!

Peanut is smelling a little better every day! lol

Hi Alisha! Hope you're doing well!
 
Tricia Happy Birthday! I am glad that your pup is smelling better.

Jane I don't like that it's getting dark early either.

I plan to workout in about a half hour. I am thinking hi lo.

We are fighting that zoning issue in the ranch again, our neighborhood is zoned rural, and some dirt bag wants to put in a commercial gym, a wedding facility, and barns for 700 horses. This just a mile from my house. Gah. We are writing to the committees. We are mobilized as a group against it. But, this guy has a history of evil business practices and just wants what he wants.
 
Hi Ladies!

Tricia ~ I'm glad you had a great birthday. I would love to try paddle boarding. I'm glad Peanut is smelling better!

Alisha ~ Sending you lots of positive vibes regarding your zoning issue. That sucks! I hope you got your workout in yesterday.

Saturday my sisters and I went to Jacksonville to go shopping. It was a nice day. Sunday I ran 4.5 miles (I was tired. I was suppose to do 10 miles but just couldn't do it). Then went to mom's and made a Halloween cake.

Last night was an upper body workout.

Today is a rest day. This is my second to last day of work. Can't wait to get out of this place and on to something new.

Have a great day!
 
I went for a hike yesterday and I did 10 min. of yoga. It's going to be nearly 80 degrees today. Looks like sprinkles on the forecast for tomorrow.

Jane what flavor was the cake?

Tricia how is peanut?
 
Hi ladies!

Alisha - Ugh. Sorry you're having to deal with all that! Hope you are able to fend off the huge development project! Sending you lots of good energy! I wish we were still warm! We had a couple of nice days in the low 70s, but that is over! We have a huge cold front dropping down by the weekend! Brrr!

Jane - Sounds like a great day in Jacksonville! How is your mom doing? Hope she's still doing well! Was today your last day at work?

Peanut is great. She still stinks just a little bit, but every day is better!

The shop I got my paddle at found me a board! It's at a shop in Westport, MA. We are driving over Saturday to pick it up! Of course, it's going to be raining and windy this weekend, so I won't get to try it out until next weekend. Hopefully, it'll be a little warmer by then! Either way, I'll have to wear my full wetsuit!

I have a rash on my right temple that just popped up on Tuesday night. Not sure what it is, but it has blister thingies and it hurts! I'm afraid it might be shingles. Weird because I've never had chicken pox. Going to have to call my doctor tomorrow, but I won't be able to go in to see her until Monday because we are busy tomorrow and one of the girls is off. Hope I can last that long and it doesn't spread by then! I'm really hoping that isn't what it is though.

Have a fabo Friday and a great weekend!
 
Hi ladies!

Well, the verdict is in - I have shingles on my face! Ugh! They hurt and are uncomfortable. Taking Ibuprofen for the pain. I went to the clinic this morning. I can't go back to work for a couple of days because it IS contagious and our receptionist is pregnant. I'm on Prednisone and an ativiral or antibiotic (not sure which, I need to check again). Have to see an opthamologist to be on the safe side that it's not getting in my eye. It could cause corneal damage. That appointment is on Monday.

OMG! I just can't believe this! I've never had chicken pox. EVER! Sigh. It looks terrible! If I had to have it, why couldn't it have been on my torso, which is the more common place they pop up. Shingles are really nasty! The more I read, the less I want to know!

We picked up my new paddleboard today! It's been raining all day, so I'll have to get you a picture another day. I'm very excited and can't wait to get out there and try it out!

I hope you two are having a great weekend!
 
Tricia I am so sorry that you have shown goals. And that you have to be on prednisone! That's terrible! I hope you feel better soon. I helps with my heat rashes, it might help with the pain. Hugs:( Friend of mine had shingles, he's my age. It took two months to get diagnosed, they thought he had eczema. Those idiots:mad:! He Nearly died.

I did 30 minutes of high low this morning. It was an old VHS tape from Petra Kolber.

I've been binge watching supersize vs super skinny on YouTube. It gives me motivation.
