A beautiful picture.  May I have a spot of tea!  Does streatching count.  My right knee is so tight that I can't straighten it out all the way, can't lock my knee.  Any advice on getting this worked out?  Thanks in advance!

Re: WELCOME TO THE DECEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Good morning, everyone.  Another new month!  Boy is this year moving fast!

 

It’s predicted to be a stormy day all day and into the evening.  It puts a blah on an affair hubby and I have been looking forward to for months.  Better than snow, though.

 

Zumba Tone this morning and maybe walking.  Make it a great day everybody.

Re: WELCOME TO THE DECEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Hello, well the storm is here, we had to cancel my dads 91st Birthday dinner and we can't even get to his house, and I have his cake.  I talked to him on the phone though and he understands and doesn't want us traveling in on slippery roads.  We're trying to reschedule his dinner for maybe Tuesday, otherwise we'll be leaving for out of town.  Oh well hey, what can ya do?

 

I did Total Gym this morning, a ladder pyramid upper body workout, and then a lower body booty workout, I am needing to make sure I get in every day until I go, as I"ll miss strength training until I get back.  Remember I won't be posting, it's hard on my little phone but as soon as I get back Tuesday I'll check in.  Unless I use my sons laptop, I'm not bringing mine.

 

@Mmsfoxxie I agree going by way too fast!  Funny how that happenes when you get older.

 

Just made some deviled eggs, I love them.  

 

Has anyone here ever smelled Snow Angel by Philosophy?  Just wondering if its anything like Baby grace which is sold no where but here.  I wish I had just the roller ball.

 

Anyways have a good Sunday everyone!

Hi Everyone!  Rec' my knock off fit bit but haven't opened it yet.

 

Had a bit of a health scare late Friday afternoon into the evening.  Was better when I went to bed Friday night.  Was at the Doctor's office on Saturday morning.  They can't quite figure out what the problem is because the tests they ran at the Doctor's on Saturday came back ok, but what happened was obviously not normal. Soooo, now I have to call yet another Specialist on Monday to make an appt to see if that Dr. can figure it out.  I am doing much better today and have none of the symptoms I had on Friday so thats good.

 

I'm tellin' ya ladies, this year has not been my year for health stuff and I had reached my limit on Friday night and cried and cried over the phone with my daughter cuz I have had enough.  I already have 2 dr appts this month for other things and now to add in another one.  Ugh.  Hope my employer is understanding.

 

Other than that, its a beautiful but cold day by the Bay.  We had some pretty good rain on Friday and Saturday but its all cleared out and sunny today.  Another storm is expected to start Tuesdsay and last through Thursday.  

 

Hope everyone is having a good Sunday.  I'm just doing stuff around the house and about to watch a movie.

@Sweet Caroline 1

 

Have you been diagnosed by your doctor? I could give you a pretty long list of what might be the problem, but that is not something I do on this Wellness Forum. I can however ask you to narrow it down.

 

Is it a joint/muscle/nerve/connective tissue that you say "is so tight"? Different body parts, such as mentioned, require different things to try to eliminate or minimize problems.  I don't read these often, so maybe I just don't know your knee background issues.

 

Hey, @bopper!  Hope you are doing well and another thanks to you for keeping this topic thread going for so many years. I hope all that participate regularly in this thread also appreciate what you have done, and are still continuing to keep going.

 

By the by! This, going on 80 old man, is still doing Grrrrrrrrrreat!

Good morning, all.  @bopper, sorry your father’s birthday celebration was cancelled due to terrible weather but you did the right thing to not venture out.  I hope you get to reschedule as planned before your trip.  

 

We had torrential rain here Saturday morning and I ended up not going to Zumba but we were lucky for our evening event, almost no rain.  This friend of my husband’s invited us to his wedding anniversary and life celebration which was originally scheduled for this summer but had to be cancelled because his cancer came back and he went back into chemotherapy.  This beautiful man paid for a dinner for about 50 people as well as paying for valet parking.  Even paid for whatever type beverage you wanted.  He spends a lot of his time volunteering at schools and other institutions.  We had a lovely evening and I was so glad we went.

 

@JudyL, boy, you’re going through some difficult health issues, for sure, but you’ve been a trooper!  Let’s hope the worst is behind you.  I hope you’re not in much pain from this day forward and that they find out what the problem is.  This kind of thing reminds us of why it’s called a medical “practice”.

 

Well, I plan to go to my Senior Cardio and Strength & Motion classes this morning if all goes well.  It’s snowing big thick flakes out there but it’s not completely light yet so I can’t see the street.  But I think I heard a snow plow a few minutes ago.  Rain this weekend, snow today!  

 

Get out your coping skills everybody cause you’re gonna need them.  This weather had better not stop my package from being delivered!!  😂 

 

Have a great day, peeps!

Re: WELCOME TO THE DECEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Good Monday moring, boy I'm late getting up today.  I keep waking up at 4, and lay there for hours, then by 7am when I want to get up I'm really tired and want to sleep..I'm all messed up.  I think for sure after this trip I'll be fine again.

 

Judy I'm so sorry you are having all these problems, when it rains it pours I guess.  Hopefully the dr. can figure out what is wrong, try and stay strong by faith, and whatever the outcome "he" will get you through.  Hugs!

 

DrKelli I have another travel question ( I know you fly) I have my carry on packed, and a backpack. Now I plan on putting my smaller purse inside the backpack but when I go through security, do I have to remove the purse, I'm thinking yes.  Also I bought my son a stainless steel bracelet for Christmas, it's in my Carry on bag.  Will that set off the security system inside my bag, do I have to take his bracelet out of the bag and put it in the bin with my handbag?   Sorry for all the questions.

 

Laura hope your days go well for you.

 

MickD trails here are snow and ice!  Storm all day yesterday, and this morning roads are terrible.

 

We are going to dinner with my dad tomorrow, the roads should be in better condition by then we hope.

 

Have a great day everyone

 

( John, thank you so much for the kind words)  You are my inspiration, you are awesome!  I hope you see this!!!
