Who Cares? Springing into April

Hi girls! Did today's Cathe live, "you can do anything for a minute", it was fun! Lisa, good luck tomorrow! Ronne, I love when my butt gets sore! Hello to everyone else! Tomorrow is my last Friday to work, then 2 more Tuesday's and I'll be done for the summer! Good evening to all! Mary
 
HI all. Today was sort of Lo Max. I saw sort of because everyone was bugging me - DH needed help with his tie, both DD's wanted to talk and they fight with each other. Really people!? I need a "stay out" or "keep out" sign. Better than that, I need a lock on that door. But then they will break it trying to get in and I will be locked in the basement. :) I have that fear with the bathroom door.

Ronne - MM is on the schedule for tomorrow but with the shoulder, I am thinking of doing something else. I could do just the legs... I'll see how I feel tomorrow.
Lisa - I would be afraid my pet would jump out of the basket.
Mary - glad you had a good time.

Waves,
Murphy
 
Hi all, rode 16.5 miles today, had a nice, leisurely ride enjoying the beautiful weather! My foot/ankle feels good however I've been not even trying to walk Suki. At PT yesterday I told them I felt a little ridiculous going in for PRP tomorrow, they assured me that I need it, if I was skipping/jumping it'd be a different story, so you know me it helps to have that input because otherwise I'd be thinking--I'm all better! When in reality I've just been smart about what to not do. Murphy, We have a harnass on Suki and then a leash threaded through the basket to keep her in tight, it worries me if we ever crash. It sure has been nice having DH along and him carting her! You're funny about being locked in the basement! Mary, wow! I can't believe you're almost done with work this year! Ronne, I bet all of the Cathe workouts that aren't just UB will feel all new to me whenever I get this foot/ankle resolved. I do have more range of motion for stretching (like pigeon pose) and my glutes thank me for that!
 
Hi all

Mary - I saw that one, looked fun. I can't believe you're finishing so soon!

Murphy - my shoulders are feeling it a bit from yesterday.

Lisa - wow, that's quite a ride. It's good you've been sensible. Good luck withe the injection.

CTX Kickbox minus the abs today. My parents are arriving tonight, we're going to get a Thai takeaway. No great plans for the rest of the weekend. Just see what happens.
 
Good Evening,

I haven't been working out much work is overwhelming and my hormones are out of whack fighting some depresession. I went for a walk today over lunch the wind has died down and the temp was perfect.

Lisa-we are headed back to South Fork Colorado next Sunday for a few days.
 
Hi girls! Today did rock'em sock'em, plus triceps. Lisa, how are you feeling? Did it hurt too bad? Does it hurt? Roxie, I hope you feel back to yourself. Ronne, enjoy your folks! Hope everyone has a good weekend! Mary
 
Hi all

Mary - it was just a flying visit from my parents - they were just staying with us to go to a match. They're back again in two weeks!

Roxie - sorry to hear you've been down.

Enjoyed the food on Friday, it was delicious.
Took a day off on Saturday, yesterday did yoga and today did ME. I think the yoga has helped my endurance, ME didn't feel so difficult.
 
Hi everyone! Today did Amy Dixon, breathless body, it was tabata. Ronne, so glad you had a good visit! Roxie, how are you doing? Lisa, how's the leg feeling? Any pain? Murphy, how's your shoulder? Weekend was kind of quiet, I mowed yesterday, it was so thick, such a bear! I wanted to walk away from the mower, but the OCD in me made me finish, good Monday to all! I'll see you Wednesday! Mary
 
Hi, just checking in saying I'm here, no workouts, I'm giving my body the chance to put all it's energies to this ankle to heal. My neck is hurting a lot too, just had massage and I needed it. Not only did the bike contribute, but I think stress. It didn't start hurting until Sunday and my last bike ride was Thurs. Dr Fri, even though I didn't feel stressed, I'm sure I was, then I've had to deal with my sister who lost her life long friends (a couple) to a murder, and turns out it was pretty grizzly. She wants to talk about it because she can't talk with her husband as he's in more grief than her (they were originally his friends), hard to know what to say. Then my BFF needs support with her DH, doing tests on him today, then another friend is having other mysterious tests (I think she doesn't want to say anything until coast is clear or a definitive bad diagnosis), then a funeral for my old boss and many people I know and have talked to going to that (I don't go to funerals unless I have too). So, do you think it's stress too? DH doesn't like people putting their load on me as he sees the toll it takes and I honestly some that are taxing me the most is really giving me the least reciprocal support and I'm freaking tired of everyone saying I'm too young to have anything wrong. I'm tired of having to support them yet I have same grief components and yet DH and I take support in each other, we've had our losses too, yet no one really knows as we don't go on and on about them (I just go on and on about my physical aliments). I'm trying to life my life as fulfilling as possible and not dwell on badness. Sorry to let loose....trying to get it out before DH sees more frustration/tears from me, he doesn't like feeling I'm being used. Anyway, Ronne, I've been thinking I may try a pilates rotation, how have you worked yoga into yours? Mary, Foot hurts but no worse than it did in the beginning. I'm just hoping it all is worth it and I WANT MY ANTI INFLAMMATORIES Do you think I'm addicted? Off to answer my sister's email, so stressful and my neck hurts, did I say that already? I probably won't be checking in this week much. I'm pampering myself with just dwaddling. Thanks for letting me vent.
 
Good Evening,

I did a run/walk on the TM Saturday then we went to the lake and yesterday we started moving stuff from our storage unit to the house so no official workout just alot of lifting stuff and walking. It stormed all night and my phone kept going off for weather alerts so I didn't sleep well so no workout for me this morning. Boss and I had a chat this morning so maybe things will get better.

Lisa-sounds like you have a lot on your plate remember to think of you.

Mary-feeling a little better thank you.

Ronne-things have just been a little crazy but hopefully my stress will get better.
 
Hi all

Lisa - vent away, this is the place to do it and we won't judge you. Sounds like you've got a lot on your plate. With the yoga rotation, I followed it doing three/four sessions a week and doing metabolic workouts with light weights or cardio on other days. Now, I'm doing some more weights but also subbing in yoga for some of those weights workouts in Cathe's rotation. So basically, it's cardio with yoga for strength. I haven't noticed any great strength loss picking up the weights again because I've been using my body weight a lot. Hope that's useful.

Roxie - that all counts as a workout!

Mary - is this your last Tuesday?

Short workout today, 4DS BC cardio only.
We had a bit of snow last night! When I went to bed there was snow on the car roofs. It's crazy, that's been our only snow, we didn't get any in the winter.
 
HI girls! TB lower body today. Ronne, snow? Crazy, almost May! Have fun tonight! Lisa, hope you are feeling better, emotionally and physically! Roxie, hope you got some sleep! One more Tuesday! Paperwork today. Good day to all! Mary
 
Hi ladies, I did XT CBS, only 2 more days in this boot! I'm tired of wobbling around! Yes, I'm feeling a better emotionally, sometimes friends can drain you without realizing they aren't putting into your tank too. Talked to my sis yesterday, wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, she's gotten herself (with help from my emails) to an emotional place to accept the murders and not ponder on exactly what happened and how much they may have suffered. There was no memorial so she is one that needs closure like that (i'm not), but once she explained how these friends lived their life I got her to understand that they had what they wanted in a memorial (ie. little close family only). My BFF DH tests are turning out ok (I still have a hard time with her always saying I'm too young for problems, I'll put it down to her not getting it and not knowing what to say), my other friend has talked to me about her issues and I think we are a good source of support for each other (funny thing we wasn't close friends until last couple years, knew of each other thru work but that was the extent, now we are close support). Ronne, that is crazy snow now and not in winter, we are having a week of cool, windy, rainy weather, I think Mother Nature is making sure I don't overdo it :) Mary, wow, it's amazing how time flies, your last summer with the twins? Roxie, hope things are going better for you as well, how's the weather for you? Any tornados?
 
Hi there

Lisa - video works for me. How cute!

Mary - it's like spring has stopped and we've gone back to November!

Did some yoga today, felt really good. Gymnastics run again tonight, I have to feed myself as well, so I'll probably go to an asian place which does nice salads and fish.
 
Hello! Today did ICE upper body. Lisa, so sweet! I don't think either of my dogs would cooperate! Ronne, hope the warm air finds you soon! Hello to Murphy and Roxie! Well, our niece is coming for a visit for a long weekend tomorrow, I don't know if I'll be around too much. Hope everyone has a good weekend! Mary
 
Good Evening,

I walked on the TM for 30 minutes this morning and will do my planks. I got to see all the grandkids yesterday they are growing so fast.
