Today I did CDorner Cardio Kickboxing and Weights, 38 minutes, 143 calories, 1,993 steps, I followed with Boss Bands Total Body skipping parts so I did warm up which is still working, shoulders, back, biceps, triceps, and added some rotations for my shoulders, 40 minutes, heart rate 97/128, 119 calories, 473 steps. I do not know how Cathe and crew use both the medium and heavy fabric bands for biceps. Maybe I am just a lot weaker since all of the shoulder problems. I dropped to the lightest band for the overhead triceps extension. I finished with CDorner Stretch for tight muscles that she did yesterday. It was mostly lower body stretching and she holds the stretches for awhile. This was 32 minutes, but my Garmin only got 19 min and 22 calories. I must have forgot to push start after I had paused it at one point because it popped up saying saving. I pushed start and it just started from there though. I am not sure what I did, but what I was doing was not much movement anyway.
Workout without stretch was 78 minutes, 262 calories, 2,466 steps.

Valerie, I am glad that you made it home. I do not mind fireworks when they are used safely. Growing up our family always had everyone together and buckets of water ready and we did fireworks. Never the big stuff though. I like the public displays with the anthem playing and remembering what we are celebrating. With my family we used to get together and barbecue and watch fireworks that were set off at a church nearby, but from lawn chairs in our back yard. It was really worrying my dog and I don't know why they have to set them off so many days in a row though. Also, there is time limits and they seem to still be going off in the wee hours of the morning. It is so hot and dry here and safety is a concern. Lots of dry brush. It was 102 today.
I told my husband we needed to come up with something because that lock gets bumped and turns easily. Most of the time the door is not closed though. I told my husband we cannot change things much as everything is set to work together and each door and window gets an audible "front door, dining window" etc is open when they open. The people before had the garage keypad and the inside door set to one code. I kept the code. Problem is, it is on my cell phone and I do not use either keypad. If I go in the garage and get locked out into the garage, I can't get my cell phone or a key. So, we will put a key somewhere just in case and I texted my husband the code. He was not too happy coming in at 5 am and not able to open a door. Funny, our dog must have known it was him as she did not make a peep when he was knocking and calling my cell phone which happens to be in the kitchen. I will not sleep with it in the bedroom. Other problem is, I keep the doorbell where it does not ring anywhere, but on my phone, so it does not wake him when he is sleeping. Usually when we have moved into a house, we get all new locks and everything is keyed the same. This time we didn't.
Carolyn, great job with Jessica Smith Walk workout. I hope you are doing better.
Cathy, I am still avoiding too much work that hits my chest area and puts a lot of pressure on the front of my shoulder. I am going to have to build up to that. My physical therapist said that shoulder is pretty much like starting over. I really think it still has some muscle memory though. Cathe, sure knows how to get the most out of those Boss bands. I don't have my watch seem off very often. I kept thinking, maybe I am not working hard enough. I read up on it and it does say to do some activity to get things going for 15 minutes before starting the workout. I did not want to mess with it much. Sometimes all I have to do is shut it off and turn it back on then sync it with the app and it will start picking up the stats better.
I guess a laser light show would be fun to watch. Somehow it does not seem the same as tradition though. My husband used to go to the top of a hotel at Disneyland Anaheim CA and watch the fireworks they would display all of the time. They had some cool light shows as well.
Judy, nice work on all of those Peloton rides and getting a walk and weights in. It probably feels good to get some other things done since weather is not cooperating. We have had several days of fireworks. None today though. Yesterday there were a few isolated pops. I saw some boys walking through a lot that a house has not been put up yet in and they lit a couple there and then headed off somewhere else. Whatever it was they were small.
