@JudyL I know how you feel! Rest and let it heal. It may take a while and it's beyond frustrating but it is the way to go. As soon as I stopped doing 2 classes a day and backed off my workouts, my body liked me a whole lot better. Do it now so you are in tip top shape for Ireland soon. I need to hear all about it!

Hey all and Happy Friday! Judy so sorry you are in so much pain, very frustrating for you. I don't have any experience with cortisone shots so can't help there but I sure hope this eases up for you.

Laura vent away and it's our Fitness therapy, it helps to talk about it. Your not alone by any means, its nice to have girlfriends ears to let it all out. I sure hope things get better for you and for you nomless. Job hunting and unsettled futures are so stressful. I'm lucky I stay at home and hubby works, ( hence why we are poor) but I get so stressed when I work it isn't worth it for me. We live pretty simply here, we don't travel or do much but I don't feel I'm missing out on anything either. I hope hubby feels the same LOL...I had my first job out of highschool serving up ice cream at a ice cream shop, then worked for a creepy dentist, left that job and started working at the Veterinary hospital which I really liked. Not as a tech but as a receptionist up until I had my children and then I was a stay at home mom. When they were old enough I went to work as a receptionist again for a Beauty salon. That job was fun, my boss was a " her way or the highway kind of gal" so we butted horns but I was there for 12 years. Gee aren't ya glad I gave my life story here Hahha...so any who...........

Today I shredded again day 6 of level 2,,,4 more days and I"m moving to level 3...I heard level 3 wasn't as bad as 2 so I hope so. Hating 2. Not seeing any results either...I am not normal! hahha in more ways than one (tee hee)

Storms moving in this afternoon so I removed the canopy on my swing on the deck as I don't want a sail boat swing coming through my kitchen window!

Have a good rest of your Friday everyone.

Oh you asked me which lantern I got. I went with my staple bronze one.. All of my lanterns are bronze...I would love to get the mega size 25" Herritage one but can't afford too. I think the yellow was really pretty...they are lovely touches I think and my home is my haven for relaxation so it makes me happy.

@bopper I love it! You put a smile on my face and a laugh. You are never poor with a wonderful family. Thanks for sharing!

nomless · ‎03-10-2010

Bopper, you've had some fun jobs. That's the kind I want now.

Judy, ouch. I hope you elbow is better soon. You've had a lot of aches and pains recently. Feel better.

Laura, we don't mind listening to complaints here. Especially from you...your complaint posts are usually very funny. Not the topics, but the way you write about them.

I was very tired again today, so I did only one cardio session, but I did weights, too. Then I booted my computer to do some stuff, and it locked up with some dire messages. I don't know if they were real or spam/phishing. I managed to reboot and without clicking anything. Now am doing a virus scan. Man, I hate computers.

Hey all, it's a scorcher here today, ya don't hear me say that often. But alreadsy 85 outside. Tomorrow 50's.......... so there ya go Hahaha

Shredding again, day 7 of level 2 and I can't wait for it to be done so I can start level 3. Hating it....hard to do when you despise it! haha

Nomless glad you were entertained! I kind of got carried away!

Judy I hope your weekend brings you rest and healing...I agree with Laura sometimes your body is telling you to just rest.

I am heading to town to plant my moms grave and my grandma's grave. My dad can't do it anymore. It's hard for him. I was waiting for the last frost and I think we had it. Probably sounds late for some of you but it's cold here for a long time.

We didn't get the bad storms, just some thunder and light rain. After it started raining the wind calmed right down.

Enjoy your day everyone, I turned on the AC for the first time!

nomless · ‎03-10-2010

Nice job, Bopper...you're persisting with Shred even though you hate it, lol. Good job!

I did errands this morning and cardio this afternoon. I don't think I 'll have time for 2 workouts today. It's hot here today. I think it's going to hit 100. Ugh! I'm not a fan of summer, that's for sure.

Laura14 · ‎06-09-2014

@bopper So sweet. Good thoughts to your dad.

@nomless You deserve the day off!

We are at 95 here and this idiot went hiking at 3pm in it. I did do the shorter trail but I was so not okay at the end I stopped at the grocery store to buy and down a nice cold ice tea. Note to self, bring water next time.

Summer is here!! Stay safe!

nomless · ‎03-10-2010

Oh, gosh, Laura, yes, take water with you when you hike on a hot day!

I did cardio and weights today. I'll decide later about doing another workout today. No other news here.

Laura14 · ‎06-09-2014

I heard this morning we tied a record here for heat yesterday and I went hiking at the worst point. When it was just me and two deers in the park I should have had a clue. And I went to college too.

I did BodyGym this morning with Marie during her first show. I just couldn't let it sit there with everyone on tv doing it. She showed some more exercises I need to try so I will get to it. I've been slacking a bit on BG lately.

My back has been acting up a bit so I'm going to enjoy a lazy Sunday which I haven't done in quite a while. Hope everyone else enjoys the rest of their weekend.

Oh! And Backjoy is a ODO today for two! If I hadn't just done damage on my credit card with Macys I would have bought some extra. Great ab workout. I sit on it every day at work. Thumbs up if you have ever considered it and you can not beat the price even with S&H.
