Happy Saturday! Well my snow event is back to happening although they are also talking ice which is no bueno. 😕 Hoping I am far enough north that we're all snow. I do not want a power outage. So I may be shoveling after all and a possible snow day from work on Monday. 😀 

Today, I did my yoga practice and I was up at 3:30am for a little bit and did an "early morning walk" according to Amazon that I got 7 points for. 😂 I have no idea why I am waking up in the middle of the night every night but at least I am making it count. 👍🏻

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Happy Saturday!

We finally have sun!!!   It's way freezing though.  Was 0 when I got up but that usually goes along with sun in the winter time.   I"ll take it.   Just seeing it is so uplifting.

I did an hour long spin class today with Kaleigh and I was a sweaty wet noodle.   This is really challenging me in ways I have not been challenged before so that's a good thing.   I was going to go for the strength portion but after an hour and 565 calories burned I decided to not over do it and will do the strength part tomorrow.

Just shoveled my deck and garage pad and sidewalk.  Filled the bird feeders and I think the deer are eating out of them also but oh well.

@Laura14 hopefully you do get snow and no ice.  That's a major NO!  I think a lot of people wake up in the middle of the night but at least you got something accomplished.   I am a sleeper like 8-9 hours a night some nights.   I know some people think that's crazy but I can't really help if I am asleep.  Haha Can't wake myself up unless I set an alarm and why would I want to do that.  Don't have to go anywhere.

Have a wonderful day everyone

Good afternoon from CA.  Today I did Thursday's yoga practice because I missed it and today's practice.  These practices are hard for me so not sure I'm really getting much out of them. Know she can't tailor them just to beginner's but when you can't do the majority of moves or keep up, its pretty discouraging. 

Nice sunny and a bit warm day here.  Did errands, some housework, and now going to relax for the rest of the day.

Happy Sunday

Yoga workout done. You'll need to be Chubby Checker for this one. Lots of twisting going on. Luckily it's short. 

So far I have rain and I can hear sleet. It's still dark here so I'll believe the snow when and if I see it. They've changed their minds from overnight to later this afternoon. My shovel is laughing at them. 

I am going to make it a quiet homebody day. Bought some books yesterday in case we ever do get a winter weather event so I think I'll read and work on my own story some more. 

I'm not feeling it myself lately. People have been weird. Not a whole lot to be happy with although I am grateful for what I do have at this moment. Have a blessed Sunday and stay warm and safe.

 Hiked at sunrise this morning. In the 20's and no wind. Was pleasant enough.

 Got in some miles and glad I had my yak trax  ( type) on my feet. We hit some snowy  areas.. not so much ice,but the snow was crunchy.

 Probably all I'll do today unless I get out for a slow walk just to move later on.

  There are football playoffs - Even though my team is out of it, I enjoy the games.

  Enjoy your Sunday everyone!

Happy Sunday y'all!

I did 30 minutes of cycle, 20 of weights and 20 on the treadmill.   I wasn't feeling it either but made myself do it.  

It is a very difficult time right now for many of us and to dig down deep and get the mojo working isn't easy.   But I say to myself  that my health is worth moving and I am grateful I can move my body.  If it doesn't challenge you it won't change you.  If you are comfortable you need to be uncomfortable if want to see changes inside and outside.   It's not easy, at all!

We have football on but what a lopsided game, just like last nights.  Not what we expected to see in playoffs.

Snowing here now and more coming.  

Stay safe, keep you chins up, and know you are not alone in this...I basically don't go anywhere other than pick up groceries and my dads.  My neighbor yesterday said the same thing to me, they don't go anywhere either and yes it gets old and when it's cold all the time, and dark and snowy it's hard.  We just have to be strong enough to pick up the pieces and keep moving forward.  

Lecture done Haha

@bopper ❤️❤️❤️

Happy Monday. I have a mini snow day from work. We did get snow but here they have no equipment so you have to wait for it to melt which is usually within 24 hours. Probably won't get in to work until later this afternoon. My boss said I could stay home if I want but I'd like to at least get my regular Monday duties done at some point and then split. 

Did anchor yoga today. I love these routines. As much as I hated dancing school as a kid, I love the dancer poses. It's a great stretch. 

I am supposed to have the place to myself later this week for a few weeks. I think that's my biggest problem lately. I need to live like an adult again for a bit and forget about taking care of everyone else for a bit.

Hope everyone has a great start to their week.

Hi, everybody.  Cold, brisk day here with just a light covering of snow.

Debating about going to my fitness center...probably won't.  It's been over a month now.  When I go, I'll be wearing my new kn95 masks when might be fake.  Who knows?  I've read everything to see if they're fake and since there's no brand name stamped on them as I just read is a clue, these might be fake.  And the date on them is May, 2020.  They last two years which means they expire May, 2022. So that puts them at the level of the blue ones I've been wearing.

At home walking again this morning.  There's a walk video that I'm set to do at 9 am that sounds interesting. Pretty much all I've been doing is walking.  

@bopper, I never pictured you as endowed, lol.  Probably what you consider a lot, lol.

Have a great day everybody.

Happy Monday,

Today was Cycle for 30 minutes and it was hard, all heavy riding, then did Kaleigh's 10 minute abs with weights, reformer stretching, triceps with bands and dog walk on the trail.  Have a pot of Taco soup going now.

@Mmsfoxxie trust me I am, it's not just me thinking it.  I'm a tall big boned girl and sometimes feel like Amazon woman haha compared to these small framed gals.  ( 7th letter in the alphabet may clue you in) LOL but I am 5'8" so I am tall. 

@Laura14 I may get back into my Yoga, I need more flexibility.

Winter weather advisory again for tomorrow. Ugh so over it.

Hope everyone is safe I saw tornado's in Fort Meyers and it looks so scary.

[Laura14]

Did my snuggle yoga this morning including doing the bawk! bawk! pigeon. That's one of my favorites. 

Back to work this morning. It was nice to work from home for a day but I prefer the office so off I go. We might, might get more snow on Friday but I'll believe it when I see it. Right now the forecasted temps aren't showing me the white stuff. Fine by me since I had my thrill and I'm over the inconvenience of it.

Hope everyone has a great Tuesday. I have a dentist appointment today so boo but they usually do a quick and easy job. Just not my favorite appointment every six months. 

Enjoy your day!
