Cheryl Great job on getting housework done and on LM&R FTB! Glad you had more energy sometimes taking a day off from working out can help with that. Hopefully you figured out something fun to do inside since it was raining.
Pam Great job on your bike ride, LBB, ICE CUB + Icy Core 2, and XT CBS! I bet after 3 months of no bike ride it was hard. I imagine your quads were pretty loud about being sore.
Well this weekend I did not get good sleep at all. I think I am having some anxiety issues. I can fall asleep but I wake up in the middle of the night with all kinds of thoughts and can't shut my brain back off. I did get my lower body workout on Friday and mobility on Saturday as well as some cleaning. Sunday I did 2 awful sets of bench press and then my mom called. We talked for about 25 minutes and she was crying and saying some things that had me concerned. I ended up deciding not to work out and called my sister since they live together to figure out what was going on. We think my mom may be showing signs of dementia or some mental health crisis. She has been lashing out, making inappropriate comments, showing signs of paranoia, wide mood swings, and has been fixated on her childhood trauma. My sister talked to her about some of her behaviors and she said she doesn't even remember saying or doing those things. She is also very stubborn and so far hasn't been very receptive to seeing a therapist or doctor to even finding out what might be going on. She has always been somewhat mean to my dad but in the last several years it has gotten worse to the point my dad said he is thinking about divorcing her after 48 years of marriage. So of course I got horrible sleep again last night. I asked my sister to keep me in the loop daily if she can on how mom is doing and I will try to help plant the seed with mom that maybe talking to a doctor about memory lapses would be good.
Have a great day!

Pam Great work on ICE Chiseled Upper Body and Icy Core 2.
Saturday I went for a long walk. Sunday I took as a day off and since it is Thanksgiving here I made dinner and had our friend over since his family were away. This morning was LITE Pyramid Upper Body. I will probably get out for a walk in the afternoon since it is sunny but cool out.
Have a great day.
