Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 9/29

Good morning and TGIF!

Rainy here but we need the rain. This day cannot be over soon enough for me.

Lori, I think the Greatest Hits DVD of mine will be sold on Ebay, along with the other step workouts. I am reading a lot of great reviews of X-10 which is the one I was looking forward to the most. I have to try them out. Are you going to try the Run Fit treadmill workout? I think you would like that too.

Lynda, your SIL sounds like she was loved by so many people, such a sad loss. Reading what happened with the other rider right before they were hit gave me chills. Let us know what you think of Flex Train.

Josie, it Is very hard to rationalize what could have lead your nephew to do what he did, such a dark place to be in, and most of the time people hide it very well. Still thinking of you and hope your family can find peace soon.

Hi to Judy, Valerie, & Cathy,

Anyone have any plans for the weekend? We are going to our first play of the season tomorrow, it's a musical, but I can't remember which right now.

Take care,
 
We hiked the last two days. yesterday up into the snow.... 4 feet of the stuff.... until we couldn't go any deeper. this was not even that high in elevation. one of the local ski areas opened for a 'one day" season. total surprise, we didn't have skis or snowshoes and just regular hiking gear. . saw a little black bear on the trail and lots of footprints. he was with his mother but didn't see her, just her tracks. lots of people hiking since so many people are on forced vacations right now. today's hike was lower and no snow at all.

Judy, glad to hear that wasn't typical of spinerals. an attractive lady but I thought it was a fairly obvious and not subtle way to "sell" the product. I want to get a couple other spin workouts for DH for his birthday and will look at those.

Josie, that will be a hard one. I don't remember going to my cousin's funeral after his suicide. I just don't remember what happened....??? it was more than 30 years ago. I don't think anyone every spoke about it again but I don't remember well. I used to babysit for him and his wife.
Lynda, that must have been a lovely service. such a sad ending. I hope this doesn't sound callous.... but I was wondering ...did the ride continue? or was it immediately cancelled? I can't imagine anyone wanting to continue after such a tragedy but those rides require so much planning and people trained for months. it might be a tough call to discontinue.
 
Happy Weekend!

Not much here, agility class then we go to see "The Big Band Theory" a musical.

Valerie, nice hike!
 
Good morning ladies!

Rainy here yesterday also. Today looks pretty decent thought. House max wa yesterday. Today going to change the clothes out of closet from summer to fall/winter. Sounds like fun doesn't it!!!

Yesterday I ended up doing party rocking step 2 and liked it. It won't be the go to cardio but I can see myself doing this every now and then to mix things up. I previewed the greatest hits and decided it is not for me. Like you Deb...going to try and sell off this one along with PRS2

Today the plan is Flextrain and then going to try out Pedal Power. Not the entire workout but a premix I am about to make up using the workout blender. I am glad that I spent the extra $20 for the downloads. I like having the workouts on my Ipad to review and then having fun creating my own customized workout out.

Deb....have fun at the musical. I love going to shows!

Valerie...that sounds like a really fun unexpected hike. And the snow! Can't imagine the strength you need to plow thru 4 feet of snow!

Lynda...that sounds like such a beautiful tribute to a wonderful person. Again thoughts and prayers to you and your DH.

Josie..thoughts and prayers to you and your family also during this difficult time.

Hi to Judy!!!
 
Lori we weren't the first or only ones on the route. there were footsteps but it still was hard..... some big tall guy had gone up...saw him on the way back down from his overnight... but it was hard to reach his steps. by the time we came down, another 10 people had gone past and it was getting easier by being packed down.

I am so ticked off at DH. I am the one who carries everything. the phone, checkbook, cash, credit cards, measuring tape, HIS reading glasses, pens, paper, calendar, shopping list, 2 pr sunglasses, flashlight, etc etc. a lot of times he sticks his wallet in my purse too. when we travel, I feel like a beast of burden. we share the phone. he has been messing with it. he thinks he's real smart about it but he's not. he deleted the calendar from the phone andall the navigation software. I am p!ssed.

I used the navigation software occasionally. I used it a lot when traveling alone this spring. I put in a variety of destinations I might need again because my mother lives there and I'll need to go back. traffic patterns have changed a lot in 40 years. unfamiliar areas. rental car. it was reassuring to have voice commands on what lane, where to turn etc. plus the addresses I entered.
he almost never goes anywhere without me so doesn't need (or like) the software because he has ME to read signs/ maps. and me to yell at if he's in the wrong lane or misses a turn. he can't read a map anymore without reading glasses.
I realized last night that I didn't see the program(s). I KNOW I didn't delete it. only one person who could have. As far as I can tell, the program he thought he deleted is still in the phone but does not show on the screen. I don't know how to reactivate it. plus I thought there were two things that had to be turned on and I only see one. now I have to make a trip to the Verizon kiosk and ask the guys there to show me how to reopen the program and look like the idiot who can't use her phone. I hate looking stupid. and I hate that he presumes to know what I find useful. and doesn't even ask me or tell me what he's going to do. vent over.
I am so furious at this that I am ready to smother him with a pillow.
