Pentagenarians & Beyond: June 22, 2025

This morning I did the Upper Body Balance Discs, SB Bonus Abs 2 and Restorative Yoga. We don't use our air till it hits 80 in the house, and set it at 78. This morning the temps got down to 74, so I opened everything up because the air in the house felt dead, but it was back to 80 by 9:00. So back we are to air again. I'm just not a fan, I like being able to open windows, but it's going to get nasty outside again today.

Today I did Jane Adams Gentle Yoga, Morning Energy practice which was18 minutes. It’s a very warm day already and it will get even hotter over the next few days.

Cathy, great job with Upper Body Balance Discs, SB Bonus Abs 2, and Restorative yoga. The a/c is critical here with the heat and humidity. It looks like this summer will be extremely hot.

Waving hello to everyone and wishing you a wonderful day.

a big reason i moved to the PNW was its cooler here most of the time. a lot of people hate it but im happy at 50 degrees!. i cant function when its hot. we set our AC to 65 although it never gets close to that. the house doesnt need much heat in winter. we like windows open too. no matter what its set on, the upstairs stays warm. a couple years ago we got some mini splits installed in the bedrooms. since then they are what we use. if we run the full house AC, its seldom for long. if wildfire smoke is a problem, then yes. mostly we use the bedroom coolers and thats enough. we seldom get serious humidity like i know the midwest and southeast get.

yesterday i did every therapy exercise I've ever done, and walked for half an hour in the yard. we planned to walk or ride this morning but it was still 50 and raining so maybe later today.
 
Today I went for a 30-minute walk outside and did a 30-minute Yin Yoga class. I walked around 9 am and it was already hot.

Cathy-Great job with Upper Body Balance Discs, SB Bonus Abs 2 and Restorative Yoga. It’s going to be very hot out for a few days.

Carolyn-Great job with Jane Adams Gentle Yoga, Morning Energy practice.

Valerie-Great job with your walking and therapy work.
 
Today I did 4DS High Intensity Step. I wanted to put together a workout with the step from the 2 cardio workouts, but while LIS has a breakdown between the step and the blast, HIS does not. Which seems odd. Then I did Live Metabolic Madness. That was very challenging!

Years ago the house we lived in (I was 7-9th grades there) didn't have air, though my Dad managed to have a window air conditioner in their bedroom. One of the summers we had a really hot spell, and all of us set up in the finished basement and slept down there for a week. Even on hot days, our basement only gets to about a high of 72 which is fine with me.

I didn't get called into jury duty for today, but I have to check every day after 5:00, to see about the next day. So, I set an alarm, so I wouldn't forget. I have an appointment for a tire rotation tomorrow, so we'll see if I get to keep it.
