Hi eveyone,

The CT scan only took less than 10 min. I probably will not get the results until next week. I visit my kids in DC, we had dinner together.

This morning I did SBF Barre 14. It was lower body. I also did a Flexibility/balance workout afterwards.

Diane - good luck on the house today.

Good night.

Belinda, out of 4 houses only one met our criteria. The one that was the best price and closest this way had lots of work to be done. It was not real old and from outside looked nice. The walls had been patched all over the place and some places must have had big holes. They did not bother to paint. Woodwork was beat up, rusted bath fan vent which I could not figure how that happened. The pool and hot tub were in need of repair. They looked good, but water was dirty and when we looked at the pump water was leaking all over the place. This took up most of the back yard. It looked like someone's nightmare. Plus the exterior needed painted. I do not want to move into a money pit.
Then one we really liked had an upstairs bonus room that was not listed in the description as having a second story. I think they built in in the attic which had a door into the rest of the attic. Another brand new one had a steep incline driveway which would be terrible when it is icy. Plus the builders do shoddy work. So, it left one. We have time though.
 
Diane - it sounds like the house was a nightmare. We looked for over 8 month to find the right house.I didn't wanted our current house, it was just too big for DH and myself. I actually wanted something smaller. We couldn't find anything that was in great shape for the dollar amount I was willing to pay. Our house was the first one we looked at and we end up buying it after looking for 8 month. Besides paint we didn't had to do anything. At that time we lived in an RV, I wasn't in a hurry to buy. You wouldn't believe in what trashed some people trying to sell their homes. Take your time to find what you are looking for. Glad you still have time.
 
Hi,

I went for a short walk. We are suppose to get 12 inches of snow on Wednesday. It was sunny but cold outside. I also did SBF D14 Christmas stretch - 27 min.

Have a great Sunday.

I am running a low grade fever today. And kind of achy I am staying in and have an appointment for Tuesday to get a covid test. Since it is icy I wanted to go around the corner to urgent care and the earliest appointment is Tuesday. My daughter says that is a good time so the test comes out more accurate. One of the ladies I got together with to set up baskets for the elderly thought she had allergies Wed and Thurs and when she started running a fever she went to the doctor. I guess she was having allergy problems on Monday, but felt fine on Tuesday when we got together. Her husband tested negative yet he has the same symptoms and the doctor said he has bronchitis. My daughter brought over meds and oranges and berries. She is so sweet. She also bought me a Sp02 tester and an inhaler if it is necessary. Trying to stay away from my husband as much as possible. Fortunately he has been busy outside loading the pod so they can pick it up.
Anyway, I will probably not work out till I know and if I test positive it will be awhile. I read that working out with the virus can push the virus into heart and where you do not want it. I do not feel that sick at this point though. It may be a bummer for Christmas activities.

Belinda, nice that you got out for a walk. It is snowing here today and I think is supposed to snow again Wednesday.

Doreen, running around in the cold does not sound so fun, but getting good photographs would be fun.
 
Hi,

I did STS Week 3 D7 Shoulder/biceps/chest plus SBF D15 Strong Back + TB on Ball (work deep upper, middle, and lower back muscles as well as triceps and glutes in this unique way on the ball. BW only)

Diane - oh no! It's a good idea to get the test. Maybe it's just a cold or something else. I will keep you in my prayers for a good outcome. That is so sweet your daughter to bring you things to make you feel better. Get lots of rest. Please, keep us updated.

I will be back to catch up on personals.

Diane - hope you are feeling better today! I wondered about working out with this virus but from what I hear fatigue is a big part and probably don't feel like workout out anyway.

Belinda - good job on STS and SBF.

I did GHUTV treadmill interval walk to start with this morning. I've been pleasantly surprised with the workouts in this app. There are several 10-20 minute workouts but most are in the 30-50 minute range which I prefer. There are several instructors and I have enjoyed all them I've tried so far - very real, likable personalities. It looks like they do a live class that is added to the library every Monday.

Good morning,

I am pulling out all my JS dvd's. Decided on her 4 mile Power walk. It's really not 4 miles, it was more like 3.5 miles, lol. Anyway got a ton of steps with this one. I will do SBF D16 Christmas Lower = 22 min + Hamstring on Ball = 8 min later.

The ENT called me yesterday to give me the results from my CT scan came back normal, no up normal RP stuff :) I am so happy. The meds seems to work. Although I don't like taking all those meds. She also gave me the Audiology results back, no hearing loss. It's a matter of fact, my hearing is very good compared to people my age.

Diane - feel better my friend.

Doreen - great job on your TM intervals walk this morning. Chris is one of my favorite instructors.

I have 2 appointments tomorrow. One is with my Rheumatologist. I hope I don't have to cancel do to the snow. We are suppose to get 12 inches or more snow tomorrow.

Have a great day everyone.
 
I ended up having both Covid tests since the first one said negative. My daughter says the quick tests are wrong 20% of the time. I don't know what is going on with me. I need this over because I have a mammogram appointment next week and the week after my Arthritis appointment. I was trying to get them over before the end of the year because of deductibles. I have changed that Arthritis appointment twice already working around grandchildren being here and it not being close. Hope it does not snow either.

Doreen, I definitely do not have energy to want to work out. I do a little bit around the house like washing a load of clothes and I end up needing a rest.

Belinda, I am so pleased for you and the results being positive. I hope that you get to go to your appointments tomorrow.
 
This thread should be renamed ... stop me from streaming so many workout services at once... LOL!! Just kidding but I can tell in the couple years since we started this that DVDs are less of a thing and streaming services more of a thing!!!

This morning I did a step on YT - I posted the link on the other thread. It was a fun one.

Diane - hoping you are feeling better today while you wait for results.

Belinda - good news about your test results... are you snowed in today?!
 
Good morning,

Yesterday DH and I got stuck in a snow storm going to my appointments. Usually what takes me 50-60 min took us 3.5 hours one way. Of course, I was 3.5 hours late for both my appointments. I even got my blood work done. My doctors are amazing, they took me in right away. I need my blood tested every 3 month to make sure the meds are not affecting my organs.I was glad when we were home last night.

Today I did Dance that walk 2. It was very low impact.

Diane - did you get your results back?

Doreen - there are still a lot of people that don't stream or can't stream because they live in remote areas. I am thankful for all my dvd's. My DD owns her own business, 2 day's ago gmail/YT was out. Not sure what happened. She couldn't do any work done. I don't buy anymore dvd's unless it's Cathe's. I use what I have and will go through them soon.

I will be back tomorrow.

Update today still no workout. I was waiting for the second covid test results and till I felt energetic again. I just got results saying the longer test said covid is detected :( . So, it has been 7 days tomorrow night. No fever and I am keeping track of my Sp02. If it goes below 90 it is time to go to the hospital. I don't feel that bad though. Just mild headache, and tired. The stomach cramping seems gone today and I still have my sense of taste and smell unlike what a lot of people say happens.
 
Belinda, that was a long time driving. I bet you were ready to be back home. It sounds like they are taking good care of you and watching how your body is handling the meds.
 
Diane - I will keep you in my prayers that you will not get worst. Rest up and feel better soon. Thanks for letting us know how you doing. Been worried about you. Yes, my doctors are taking good care of me.
