Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD AND MORE

Hi!    I've been doing youtube exercise videos.  My favorite channel is Yes2Next.  It features a 60 year old woman and her 80 year old mother.  Mom does most of the videos seated. 

 

The most helpful one has been walking backwards.  Have been trying to get motivated to attend a senior center for exercises.

Hi @cindyNC I love my youtube workouts too, and it's nice to see people our age right, not someone in their 20's and 30's!   As they say Motion is Lotion!!!

 

Welcome and keep posting!!   Smiley Happy

  Low key here. I am gonna grill steaks for dinner tonight. But  not alot  going on. Should be a nice day- 80's. Our mornings are now in the 50's so getting a walk in  outdoors is pleasant. Which I plan to do.Just haaven't decided where.

  I have odd an ends to do around here. One is change my purse out- not because of the season- mine is falling apart. I carry one and don't change it out only when it needs it and I don't buy expensive ones so  they dont' last  too long. I don't like getting used to a new one and then don't want to get rid of down the road! HA!

 This week- I have my GS tomorrow - then hopefully the cleaning ladies will be coming on Thurs.Haven't firmed that up. My friend and I want to do a little hike on Wed.. that's also stil pending.  I need a pedi.

@bopper  your DH's surgery coming up this week. Know you'll update us when you can and sounds like you are biking more and more- good for you.   

and @JudyL - you are coming along with your knee!! YAY!

  My rec center opens back up today @ 10- I am not going , but plan to early tomorrow before my GS arrives. It's been 2 weeks they have been closed. While I did weights at home- it wasn't the same.

  Enjoy the day!

Hello, today I took a rest day.  Took down my summer decor and dragged out some fall stuff.  Not all of it but some.   Trying to do the heavy things like totes now as hubby can't lift after Wednesday.  We'll find out tomorrow what time he has to be there Wednesday.  Tomorrow may be the last nice day of the week.   Dropping to high of 50.   Rain chances are high also.  We had a down pour earlier today, came out of no where and I mean down pour. We had puddles in the grass here.

 

@violet runner enjoy your GS.  We were in the 40's this morning!

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD AND MORE

Hi everyone!!   I survived the long weekend, started Friday with family and my grandson...I made them a salmon dinner.  Mac n cheese for my little guy, lol.

We had a great weekend together and he spent 1 night with my middle daughter and he told her he wanted to get back to Glamma, ( me). Lol.

I drove him back to Jacksonville yesterday and we all celebrated my youngest daughters birthday ( which is today).  We had a very pleasant time all together...then I needed to hit the road...I was concerned about traffic,  but thankfully it was smooth sailing...about 1 hour, 20 minute drive.

Ok now...exercise...today im back on big chores, did the stalls this morning too.  Then 3 stops on errands. 

Later I took a walk, I got 3 miles in total.

I'm keeping an eye on the calories and protein...honestly I didn't do too perfect, but nothing overboard. 

It was a little hard spending 2 days with my family and celebrating...I think the worst was having a hotdog...I grilled a bunch of food so hubby would have the extra if im out all day, and grandson loves hotdogs 🌭...oh well.

Also grilled turkey burger for me, topped it with spicy jalapeño cheese...so not too bad....big beef burgers for the guy...get them at my butcher.

I'm satisfied now, and back in full swing.

I need to take care of me, and chill out now...mission complete!!

  Saw that post from @hckynutjohn ....

I lost my cousin in that...he worked in the world trade building.  He was 36 with 2 small children. 

We all were watching the news, hoping to hear he made it out.  

Hope everyone here had a good weekend.

@violet runner ...enjoy your your grandson today!

@bopper ...the best to your hubby's procedure, and you stay well!! 🙏

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD AND MORE

Happy Tuesday all,

 

I had a busy holiday weekend. Left work on Friday to start my Fall Cleaning extravaganza. I was up to ten o'clock Friday night pulling everything out in my basement storage and rearranging it while I laundered the bed and dressed it for fall/winter. 

 

Saturday, I pulled down the curtains to launder them and reorganized my kitchen cabinets, cleaned out the refrigerator, and pulled out every clothes drawer in my armoires and dresser and swapped wardrobes and reorganized that. 

 

Sunday, I did a bit of food shopping and came back and washed and detailed the car, inflated the tires and charged up the Halo. Did the normal vacuuming, dusting, and bathroom cleaning. Switched out and laundered the shower curtains. 

 

On Monday, I ran to Target first thing for a shoe sale to grab new boots and then spent the rest of the day waiting for Amazon who delivered my birthday and Christmas presents a day early so I wrapped them last night. I was falling asleep at my kitchen counter during dinner.

 

Today I had the busiest return to work with month end, customer statements, and payroll. I did my first Power class tonight so it will be nice to get back into routine. I may take Friday off after all this to recover.

 

Missed my hike yesterday, so I will need to get that in at some point this week too. 

Have a good one all. 👋
