Re: Welcome to the August Exercise Thread

Hi, this morning I walked about 3, and it was so humid I just wanted to come inside.   Then I rode my stationery bike about 10 miles...

 

We grilled tonight right before it started to pour, then got super muggy and cleared up.

 

Skylark  we all feel like that at times.  I don't want to cut my grass right now either because it will burn up too fast.  Funny things is some areas need cutting and some do not.

 

nomless I hope they get a new bike for the gym.  Sounds like they know they should.  I am enjoying all the fall decor I have been seeing.  I went on Pinterest and if you type in fall scenery in the search so many pretty pictures.   

 

Patty I hope your doing alright and Lucy too.  We have all come to love that little girl, even when she is a stinker.   

 

Tony, cater, waving to you all!

Re: Welcome to the August Exercise Thread

Hi, everyone.  I have nothing to report today, no workout.  This morning I met with my ex boss re: possible new job, and this afternoon I met with a lawyer re: a will.  Ugh.  So difficult.  I thought I had everything figured out, but now based upon lawyer's input I have to rethink some things.  My head is spinning.

Re: Welcome to the August Exercise Thread

I was busy again today and didn't do a workout.   I'll get back in the swing this weekend.  TGIF, have a good weekend, everyone.

Re: Welcome to the August Exercise Thread

Hi, I forgot to post yesterday.   I rode my outside bike 16.5 miles.   Was almost hit by a motorcycle and I had the right of way, the green light and the cross walk and was on the bike path...........I could have stuck my leg out and touched his tire, that's how close he was and I let out a scream, pressed hard on my pedal and got across the cross walk and he proceeded down the road.   I then continued and stopped at the lake and just sat for a while.

 

Nomless it's OK you missed a couple days, we all have days like that.   Sometimes we need to have a couple here and there.

 

It's going to be 90 here today and tomorrow.  Sounds strange saying that doesn't it since I post snow and cold so much of the year.   A big Harley convention here this weekend so that's why all the bikers are in town.

 

Have a great Saturday everyone, not sure what the day hold for me today!

Re: Welcome to the August Exercise Thread

Hi,Bopper. I'm so glad you avoided a crash with the cycle. Scary.  I just finished a workout on treadmill and elliptical.  It's probably good the bikje is broken because I think I slack on the bike.  Treadmill and elliptical are pushing me harder, so that's good.

 

I was at BBB yesterday and spotted a throw pillow I loved and bought.  It's a pillow with an American flag motif, but the stars and stripes are beige, not white.  My sofa is beige with a bit of blue and red and my chair is blue, so the pillow fits right in.   And, I like displaying a bit of patriotism although I'm aware that some object to the flag motif used on anything but a flag.  I'm OK with it because it's not a real flag.

 

Patty, I hope DS is OK.  Thinking of him.

 

Happy weekend, everyine.

Re: Welcome to the August Exercise Thread

Hi, today I did 20 miles on my Xbike and 20 minutes on the Total Gym.  It's rainy and muggy out so I wanted to stay inside.

 

Quite dreary here today.  It's cooler but factor in the humidity and it's still uncomfortable.

 

Yesterday it was up to 94, I'll remember that when I'm shoveling Hahah

 

Hi nomless good job on your elliptical and treadmill. How is the foot?  I hope you hear back on your job hits!  

 

Okay, Logan is staring at me!  Later kids!

Re: Welcome to the August Exercise Thread

Hi, Bopper.  Thanks for the good wishes about the job.  It's hot and humid here, too.

 

 

I did the elliptical and bike today, for a little longer than usual.   Foot is no worse.

 

 

I also did work re the will and called to the lawyer with questions.  I think it's all ironed out.  Will do the signing later this week.  Then I'll start working on a doc with things all the major people in my life need to know (doc, lawyer, etc.).  My, that will be hard, too.  I'm tired of all this hard thinking!

 

ANW tonight!

Re: Welcome to the August Exercise Thread

Hi everyone,it's been terribly hot here,96 yesterday.  Walked Angie and was so sweaty ugh. She kept looking back at me as if to ask WHY??  Moved all living and dining room furn with DH this afternoon.  Guys coming tomorrow to sand and stain floors.  Hasnt been done for awhile but they still dont look half bad. 

Nomless,HATE that kind of "brainwork" but no way around it,is there?  Did they ever fix the bike at your gym?  Glad the foot is no worse at least.

Bopper did you get out with Logan?  They stare a hole through you don't they? 94 is awfully hot for your area isn't it?

Hope Pattys son got good news  

Hello to Tony and anyone else stopping by. Have a good productive week.

Re: Welcome to the August Exercise Thread

Hi, Skylark.  I hope the work on the doors is going well and that you love the result.  The bike isn't fixed.  Oh, well.

 

I was doing a workout on the elliptical with the TV on and the floor fan blowing on me because the room is very warm.  Another woman came in, turned off the TV and took the fan to the piece of equipment she was going to use. How rude is that??  I was so annoyed.  I'll go back later and finish up.
