This morning I did Live Ready, Set, Step, which is all known moves, 3 routines, then a run through of each with a blast after, and then a straight run though. I was going to do a stretch, but my siblings decided to start chatting about our parents in the middle of my workout. Apparently, my brother decided last night to bluntly tell Dad they need to get out of their place and into something smaller with no stairs. He doesn't want to deal with Mom and the expense freaks him out, they are lucky they've made it this long without one of them having a serious fall. Going to be a fun family chat tonight. He got released this morning. Apparently they put enough stuff in him to resolve the issue. Haven't heard much in the way of fireworks at all yet, but people out here seem more likely to just do it around the date. There are big tents set up around to sell them, but Michigan has laws and they can't sell the super heavy stuff here, of course the very first exit in Indiana has a huge store and there laws are way looser.
Diane Sue great job with CDorner Cardio Aerobics and the towel stretch. That's sounds very interesting.

Hi to all!
Good morning. I did Jane Adams Gentle Yoga this morning for 18 minutes. It’s another very hot and humid day here.
Cathy, great job with Live Ready, Set, Step. I’m glad that your brother is home from the hospital. Your family chat will have some serious issues to go over. Is this the first time that you have broached the topic with your parents? Good luck.

the obnoxious firework situation is amping up here. its rainy so that sends folks indoors but an issue every year here. local cities banned fireworks inside their borders but we still have legal sales of everything in the counties and indian reservations. the noise is obnoxious . and widespread flaunting of the rules makes fining people darn near impossible. maybe if someone blows off a finger but mostly we end up just living with it. plenty of fires get started. trash and debris everywhere. we hope for wet weather but this year is not looking like that. we already close windows at night and run room AC. it will get worse and then taper off after 2 weeks.
that sounds tough but necessary to get your parents out of their house into something one -level with support services. some sort of senior living community? my sister is the same but she refused so far and Im done. she is at the mercy of whatever social services are available to her. she has suggested I come there and "help her" and I have already said NO. she lives in a pig sty, no shower, no computer, no internet service, no car and lives near nothing that would. not even a motel/hotel a reasonable distance away. good luck cathy. sometimes it takes a big and often bad event to force a move. like someone falls, or has a stroke. hope they agree to move before that when its still voluntary.
not going to ride this morning as its raining so something indoor instead.
30 on the treadmill walking uphill. therapy work. having friends for dinner tonight.

This morning I did Low Impact Sweat, workout one, which was 28 minutes and 165 calories burned. Average heart rate 124 and maximum heart rate 156. I spent too much time dealing with Express Scripts and my husband’s medication this morning. They can be very frustrating at times.
Hello to All and have a wonderful day.

This morning I did RWH Low Impact Hiit 2, PP Upper Body and STS 2 Total Body Stretch. Oh, the family chat was the usual stuff. I highly doubt my Dad even told my Mom about the part of the call with my brother discussing them moving. She is rough to live with, and he does nothing that will set her off when she does that plenty on her own. The 3 of us have known for quite awhile that it's going to take a bad incident to get them to go. Mom will fight it and Dad is freaked about the cost. They have it good now, still have the same amount of money in the bank they had when he retired years ago, because they own their home and just pay lot rent and utilities and other than buying season hockey tickets at NMU, they really don't spend money beyond the basics. Three of their 4 parents had it rough during the depression and that has especially affected my Dad's use of money. So, we just wait.
Carolyn great job with yoga and Low Impact Sweat.

did a road ride this morning 15 miles and hour and 10 minutes. still plan on therapy shortly. had some guests for dinner last night so we have leftovers. no need to cook.
cathy I hope your parents are able to relocate or at least have a place in mind they can go if needed. will be really hard to make that change but otherwise the decision gets made for you based on what happens. thats what will happen with my sister. it's her problem.

Sunday I did 30 minutes of Peloton Leg Strength, 10 minutes of Peloton Shoulders & Arms and 20 minutes of rowing. Yesterday I did a 20 minute run. I lost a filling last night so will be trying to get into the dentist today.

this morning I did Live Kick, Box, Bags and Core Flow Express. I think part of the mental part of the moving to a safer place for my parents is that their parents didn't need it until they were older. My Dad's father was living on the farm, puttering around until he started having strokes at 92 and lived the next 4 years in a nursing home, his mother lived there until she was 95, broke something carrying a farm upstairs and moved to a nursing home, then when she realized she wouldn't be able to go home, stopped eating and drinking, she also was 96. My Mom's Dad passed away at home mid-80's, her Mom finally was forced to move to assisted living when she's was 95/95 and the hospital refused to release her to go home and live by herself, she made it to 98. So, there they are at 84 and 85, and at least subconsciously thinking they don't need to go anywhere. My Dad's brother and his wife are in worse shape and still at home. And bonus fun, they don't want to pay anyone to come in and do anything, especially my Mom. My Dad would have someone in to clean but that is not flying with my Mom. And all that is why I eat healthy and exercise because I have lots of examples as to why I should.
Valerie great job with the ride.
Judy great job with the Peloton workouts and run. Hope the dentist is an easy fix.

my mothers side the women all lived to 90+. my fathers side, not so much. all lived with a child, most avoided the dreaded nursing home.
around here there are senior facilities decent to live in. levels of service. one floor apartments in a large building with meals if you want and social activities . other amenities like ride services if needed. a lot of people are fine except they shouldn't drive anymore or dont want yard work. expense goes up as you tap into more services.
my DH is younger than I am so I might get more time at home as long as he stays well. my sister is a perfect example. she hasn't been able to drive in decades. needs rides everywhere. she is socially very isolated. even if she pisses off everyone she deals with( she does) she still might be able to learn how to use a phone and computer minimally. I doubt newer places still have land lines. I have no clue how she will sell her house but not my problem.
one of these days she will fall and break something or knock herself out and will end up in a hospital and a social worker will say she cant go back home, and the whole thing will get handled by whoever does these things. ETA she has a seizure disorder and is not well controlled so this is very likely to happen. she refuses help from everyone too, like the last time I tried to get her going on clearing out her house. seems to be a similar pattern with disabled people all acting the same.

Today I did P30 Perfect Pump Upper Body. My time was 41 minutes with 126 calories burned, average heart rate 106, and maximum heart rate 127.
Cathy, great job with RWH Low Impact HiiT, PP Upper Body, STS 2 Total Body Stretch, and Live Kick, Box, Bags, and Core Flow. Aging and staying in your home is different for each person. It’s very hard for most people to make necessary changes, even with smaller things, especially if you haven’t planned for it.
Judy, great job with Peloton Leg Strength, Shoulders and Arms, and rowing.
Valerie, nice job with the road ride. Leftovers are great timesavers. I prepare most meals with extras for my “cook once eat twice” strategy in mind.

Today I did Raw July Rotation Thursday: Tabata Boxing, 31 minutes, heart rate 135/165, 171 calories. I followed it with Raw July Rotation Monday: Lower body; Back; Chest, 26 minutes, 79 calories, heart rate 98/119. I definitely will not be doing the Raw Tuesday Jumping workout. No jumping onto the step for me. I did a few of the Jacks on my Saturday workout and I got a tight knot on the back of my knee for two days and it was hard to bend my knee.
I finished with CDorner Full Body Mobility and Stretch from today, 30 minutes, 37 calories. Total time was 87 minutes, 287 calories. It has been so hot here.
I was tired after waking at 4:30 this morning and unable to fall back asleep. We took my husband's truck in for service on his truck and a recall on a part. They said they had the part and when we went back to pick it up, they did not fix the recall and said they did not have the part. Now we have to get up early and do this all over again. They just did the oil change and stuff. Yesterday I had to drive across town for my cardiologist appointment. I find it so weird that they say I need to get a calcium score test done again but did not offer to set one up. I get tired of the vagueness of the facilities. The Pulmonologist had told me to come back in a certain time period and see the main doctor, but the receptionist said she didn't have his calendar schedule yet and was rude. No one there has mentioned anything either. I have no idea when they wanted me to come in now and nothing is mentioned in the Pa's notes online. I feel like going in and they just talk to me and take my blood pressure after my 1 hour drive there and I go back home, it is a waste of time. I check my blood pressure every morning myself. I could send it to them.
I guess I am just tired.
I keep looking at Cathe's Gloved Up and Sweaty workout and cannot make up my mind if I would use it. It looks like a lot of impact in it. I don't see modifiers in the preview.
Cathy, nice work today on Live Kick, Box, Bags and Core Flow Express. I think it is hard for most people as they reach that point where they need to change how they live. My Dad passed away from a head injury when climbing stairs in his house. He was by himself in that big old house. The stairs to the basement and laundry were treacherous concrete. One of my friends that I play games with and her husband finally realized they couldn't take care of their house and he had had a couple of falls and surgery. They are renting in a place that has single story homes for elderly, but they take care of the grounds and will come in and do things like changing light bulbs and that sort of thing. No garage though. It was extra for a carport and cost to me was good at 1300 a month. They also have a small bus that takes people to Walmart early in the day for shopping that do not drive.
Carolyn, good job on yesterday's Low Impact Sweat and today's P30 Perfect Pump Upper Body.
Valerie, nice work on the 14 mile road ride yesterday. It is nice having leftovers and just being able to reheat and enjoy. Although I have plenty in the freezer that my husband and I are not eating from family dinners. He is low carb and I just do not eat a lot of spaghetti and enchiladas for dinner. It is hard to plan for 17 people a meal every month.

ended up just doing gardening yesterday morning and shopping in the afternoon. did not get in a serious walk or ride. this morning we did a hike, a close by one to avoid holiday traffic which is bound to get bad today. it was a good one. we were the first ones there with a lot of birds to hear and watch. its not that simple a hike with a lot of up and down, the one that goes from a bluff above the water down a lower bluff above the water. we saw a ton of dolphins. first we saw a lot of little fish jumping out of the water and then dolphins. they were working thru the school of small fish. we watched for a while then headed back up the hill. about 2 hours 15 minutes.

Yesterday I did a 30 minute Peloton ride, 10 minutes of rowing and 10 minutes of upper body work. Today I did Live # 209, Supersets Live. I was able to get into the dentist late yesterday and got a temporary filling. I was hoping I could just replace the filling that I lost, but apparently I need to get a crown on that tooth now so I’ll be going back in a couple of weeks for that.
Cathy-Nice job with Live Kick, Box, Bags and Core Flow Express. You are doing a great job of staying healthy and exercising. I am trying to do the same for similar reasons.
Valerie-Nice job with your hike.
Carolyn-Nice job with P30 Perfect Pump Upper Body and KCM’s Cardio Quick Fix workout one. I agree about aging and staying in your own home being different for each person.
Diane Sue-Nice job with Raw Tabata Boxing, Lower body, Back & Chest and CDorner Full Body Mobility and Stretch . I plan on trying Gloved Up & Sweaty soon.

Today I got up early and did the cardio from Cardio and Weights. It's kind of a pain, because the original workout had no premixes and when they chaptered it, there's part of a weight section included with each combo, so I have to forward through it. Then went and walked at the zoo.
Judy great job with the Peloton workouts and Live Supersets. Sorry to hear you need a crown. I hope it goes smoothly.
Valerie sounds like you had a wonderful walk today!
Carolyn great job with KCM’s Cardio Quick Fix.
Diane Sue I agree with Carolyn, it's not hard to modify what you need to in Gloved Up and Sweaty. Great job with the July Raw rotation workouts, and Full Body Mobility and Stretch. Sorry to hear about your frustrating visit to get the truck fixed, and with your doctors' offices. $1300 seems amazingly reasonable. My brothers FIL moved to assisted living the other day, he does need a fair amount of assistance, and the places they checked ranged from $5-8000 a month!

Cathy I agree on that $5-$8000 a month price range and this is even 10 yrs ago now. DH's aunt ended up in a memory care unit which is a lot of added expense. luckily she didnt live a lot longer, just 2 years or so. she needed a LOT of care. every thing you use is an added expense. for people who are still self sufficient it was reasonable. there was a charge for everything. every meal, every med given, every reminder to take a med, every bathroom assist, cleaning, laundry, driving services to stores or medical appts. the tab ran up quickly.
it really was nice. I dont remember when we got there, 7-7:30? its very heavily wooded and tons of things were blooming and all these birds!
sorry about the crown Judy. it seems like that is the first thing to come up, it always always needs a crown.

Today I did CDorner Vertical Step #388, 212 calories, 36 minutes, heart rate 146/172, 3,364 steps. I finished with CDorner Stretch after Step (the longer one)17 minutes, 32 calories. She works on those hip flexors and calves well in this one. Total time 53 minutes, 244 calories.
Carolyn, nice work on KCM Cardio Quick Fix #1 today. I will probably go ahead and get Gloved Up and Sweaty. I should have ordered it when I pre-ordered the new upcoming ones. I have watched the preview more than once. There were three reviews on Amazon, one gave it 5 stars. One said it was boring, and two said it was easy, while one said she didn't like boxing workouts because she had herniated discs in her neck doing them but liked this one. So, I sort of took that as maybe if it is easy I will like it.
Valerie, a morning hike and watching the dolphins sound so nice and pleasant. Things are a lot cheaper here. I did look at prices on a newer senior living community nearby recently and they started around 3500 a month and up from there. Those high costs are not doable for a lot of elderly people. I understand staff and facility in the costs, but many places like that over charge on the food and things needed. Much like medical costs are. I got an acapella flutter device prescribed by my doctor and I was shocked at the cost that went to medicare and my insurance for a piece of plastic.
Judy, mice work on yesterday's 30 minute Peloton ride, 10 minutes of rowing and 10 minutes of upper body work and today's Live # 209, Supersets. I was afraid my dentist was going to mention replacing a crown and was relieved when this time he said since nothing was going on with it we should wait and not disturb it. The only reason he mentioned it before is that there is a good-sized gap between it and the next tooth. I have always had to carry around dental picks for after I eat out because of it. I am pretty used to it. I learned not to eat things like hard pretzels after breaking a crown once.
Cathy, that is odd on the Cardio and Weights. I pulled out my dvd and it has a cardio only pre-mix as well as a cardio with the lighter weight segments or something pre-mix. It shows the premixes on the workout manager. I wonder if it is because it is an older dvd? I know Kelly has several of her older dvds that she was not able to put up on her channel. She puts some premixes from some later dvds up. Otherwise you just have to forward through the parts you don't want. I always liked doing the just cardio part. I left it out because I think I would enjoy doing it. I have a whole case that holds 300 dvds and most of that case is Cathe workouts. I just put the sleeves in a large baggie for safe keeping. I tend to go for the ones that are setting on my shelves over digging out the case. I am going to go ahead and get the Gloved Up and Sweaty. I really do not see many people using it on here. I am pretty good at modifying.
I thought the 1300 a month was not bad too.

Happy July 4th! We have nothing special planned for the holiday this year.
This morning I did Perfect Pump Lower Body. My time was 35 minutes, 113 calories burned, average heart rate 106, and maximum heart rate 136. I had several interruptions during my workout so I’m happy to get that much done. I had planned to do a longer stretch, but I wasn’t able to get to it.
Valerie, nice job with your hike and getting outside before the crowds.
Judy, great job with Peloton ride, rowing, upper body work, and Live Supersets. I’m glad that you were able to see the dentist for the temporary filling.
Diane Sue, great job with CDorner Vertical Step and Stretch after Step.
Have a wonderful day everyone.

Well best of intentions and all. Bad night's sleep, but I planned to do something after breakfast, then while I was having breakfast, Derek got up an got his and instead of his usual eating in his room, he sat down and we chatted for over half an hour, by then I was really not feeling a workout. He somehow pulled a groin muscle, with no specific incident and took himself to an urgent care this afternoon. Doctor said it was mild and he should be okay to work Saturday, so we'll see. He said it was better today, but he has a very physical job.
Diane Sue I'll have to pull out my DVD for C&W next time and use that. The workout blender shows the premixes for that workout, but unlike the newer workouts, it won't play when you click on it. Great job with CDorner Vertical Step and the stretch. I think the choreography in Gloved up and Sweaty is pretty basic myself.
Carolyn great job with Perfect Pump Lower Body. Interruptions during workouts are a pain, but at least it was a weight workout and not cardio.
