Wellness

[Laura14]

I am tired today.  Last day of work before I literally get out of town.  I think between the constant walking and the heat, I need a break.  My body is feeling all the exercise and stress.  I think Friday may be a shopping day instead of a hike day.  We'll see.

I hope everyone is felling better and has gotten rid of hives, back aches, and other assorted bad karma.  Have a great Wednesday!

Good Morning, it's another hot one here but I can take it, winter comes fast enough.  Everyone at the grocery store today seems to be thinking the same thing, don't complain, Winter is long enough in these parts of the woods.

So groceries are done, I bought a hair comb with some rhinestones in it and was trying to place it in my hair while gathering it into a pony and I have the dang thing so twisted up, it's garbage now.  How can somebody get something so simple into a twisted up mess. So that's 5$ down the drain.  Oh well live and learn I guess.  

I wish Hubby had put the bike rack on the car trunk, I don't know how to do it and even if I figured it out I can see my bike falling off the rack onto the highway and causing a crash, so I'm not taking it anywhere other than around here.  Kind of windy too though.

Seems many are dealing with the misfortune of not feeling well.  Sending out prayers and positive wishes to everyone .   

Does anyone know what the Luminara TSV is for Sunday?  Just curious, I love my lantern and don't imagine it is another lantern.  Probably some candles for Christmas since it's Christmas all weekend I think.

Here's to Hump Day!

@Laura14, have a great vacation.  Will you get your car back before you leave?

Bopper, it's too bad the hair comb didn't work out.  I don't know what the luminara TSV will be.  I've been peeking at Q's cooking day today.  Long ago, it was a fun day because they'd bring in new items, but they don't do that anymore.  It's just the same old stuff.

Lucy and Judy, I hope you feel better today.

I did cardio and weights today.  I was concerned when I got to the chest press - it was so hard!  I thought I had lost strength in the last few days.  When I finished, I realized I had set the weight higher than usual.  No wonder it was hard. LOL.

@nomless  Good for you!  Now you have a normal.  No call so far today about my car so unless he does a last minute come and get it, I shall be carless until Tuesday.    At least for my own wheels.  Hertz is hooking me up tomorrow and yes I will be getting the insurance since I know they have curbs in Iowa too.  

@bopper  That comb sounds pretty.  I have a couple bejeweled hair things but they tangle in my hair too like crazy so I rarely pull them out.  Not meant for us curly girls with long hair.  I just got the email for Luminara and you are correct.  It is four candles.  

Still debating whether to cut the lawn which desperately needs it or let it become a jungle until Tuesday.  We'll see how I feel after my hike home.  I was so hoping I'd get surprised and get my car back so I would have energy for it.  Turkeys!

After my trip and my car back, I have decided it's time to get very serious again.  I've slacked off since my injury (sort of) and I say no more!  Time to get my car back, restart my cooking resolutions again, rediscover my gym classes and get the final 10 pounds off.  I almost can't wait to get the car, trip, and return to work stuff out of the way so I can finally get going on what I started the day I crashed.  My new life.

Oh!  I forgot to update you on Nazi sprinkler watch.  There have been 0 count them 0 sprinklers turned on on my side of the street this week.  With the exception of a tiny section by the clubhouse which I can easily skirt, Water Hitler has been vanquished!   He must have gotten my Italian greeting card.

I have wheels!  And, wait for it, no air conditioning!  Just cause you know it's me and nothing's ever easy.  Not sure how that happened but I don't care.  I am going to pack for my limo trip tomorrow and forget I have a car of my own for several days.  I need a drink! 

[Laura14]

Happy Thursday!

Of course the interstate was blocked when my driver picked me up but he got me here in plenty of time. Have no idea how. The skycap made fun of me when he saw I was off to Iowa but me and ten other people are awaiting the Flintstone jet to get us there now.

I'm putting running down the tarmac as part of my exercise for the day. 😀

[nomless]

Yea, Laura.  You're on your way!  Have a great time.

Now the plane is in the shop! Anyone with tips on annihilating a black cloud, ready to hear suggestions! 😥

Morning, it's rainy here this morning.  I was on the phone early this morning with my sister because her doggie had eye surgery.  They had to remove the lense so he's blind now, the other eye is bad too and we talked for an hour while I rode my bike.  Might as well double task right!   Then I got my BG and did a bunch with that and my free weights, I put the dumbell behind my knee and did raised to the ceililng with that, squats, biceps, abs. I have to be careful of my shoulder so not much with that area.   Now will hop back on the bike and keep moving.  I did manage 16,000 steps yesterday and beat all my other activity levels on my fitbit so I guess I'm in competition with myself.

Laura enjoy your vacation, and I hope everything works out beautifully for you.  You sure are entertaining LOL...Thank you regarding the Luminara, I can't afford it but many are already saying it's a great price, I was flabbergasted when I saw it but that's me!

Nomless I flipped a little to the cooking shows, and you are right same old stuff.  Glad you did so well on going heavier even if you didn't know it!  

Judy are you feeling better, I hope so.

Iluvlucy I know your struggling and Lucy is too, praying things improve for you and Lucy .   

Well time to get more movement in, have a wonderful blessed day!

Well do good intentions count?  LOL  I had good intentions to get up and try a light work out this morning to see how I did but that alarm went off and I hit the snooze button.  Ugh.  That is a bad habit and one hard to break.  Back and hip are feeling pretty good so am looking forward to trying a little something to see how I feel.

Laura - hope you have arrived safely and looking forward to hearing your updates.

Lucy - hope you and Lucy are doing ok.

Nomless - good going on increasing the weights - even if you didn't realize it until afterwards!

Bopper - You are doing great!  Every now and then I debate with myself about getting a fitbit.  Still not sure it's for me but am always intrigued when people talk about theirs.

It's really hot here - well at least for us anyway - so by the time I get home after commuting on the subway, I am in no mood to exercise in the evening.  So will try again tomorrow morning.  Its supposed to start cooling down this weekend so will probably have more energy/motivation to do something then.

Take care everyone and have a good Thursday!
