Re: Welcome to the March Exercise Check In

Happy Friday everyone,

Sunny here and was quite cold when I got up. We're now at 30 so that's a nice change.

I did the treadmill and the TG this morning working different muscles.

kjohnson thanks for the info. I think I know the ones your husband uses... I just don't like having so many different sets of them laying around. I like the neoprene handles too!

Nomless you are liking that rice cooker hey? Are you still getting L&L? I haven't in a long time.

Pppmint hoping your Friday is moving along nicely. Be careful on those nasty roads you have been having lately.

canine are you getting any warmer? I 'll be so happy when I can walk Logan on the trail without all the boots/snowshoes...etc and just enjoy the sunshine!

FUTURE are ya with us?

Tony race weekend!

Have a great rest of your day!

Re: Welcome to the March Exercise Check In

Whew! What a day! I'm so glad dh is still working so we don't have to go to Fellowship Groups tonight.

Worked out with dh since they had a 2-hour delay even though I don't think they needed it. We went running, it was 25* and sunny...if not for the wind, it would have been perfect running weather. Then we did a circuit work-out with jump-rope and body-weight exercises even though I'm still sore from the past two days.

Then had bible study, financial adviser, mall to return something and did a little shopping, realtors for paper-work, and doctor appt. So I"m okay with missing Fellowship Group!

Going to the CF Open tomorrow morning...probably hear some moaners and groaners nomless. {#emotions_dlg.laugh}

Re: Welcome to the March Exercise Check In

LOL about moaners and groaners at the CF open tomorrow. I'll be interested in hearing about it. Hi, Bopper. Yep, I love my little cooker. Tomorrow I'm going to try making beef stew in it. I like bwong abe to make a small amount, and it's great not having to tend to it. Pusj the button and let it do it's thing. Temp got up to 60 today, will be that most of next week. 50 mon cardio dpme on treadmill, bike and elliptical. I was tired so I kept it slow and easy, HR about 70-75%. Sometimes it's nice to back off a little.

Re: Welcome to the March Exercise Check In

Hi, all!! I was sooooooo sore after my WO Monday night -- which means I've been slacking!! The good news is things are slowing down this month, so I'm back at it full force. Anywho, did spin last night and it was great! Doing it again in the am, and I'm going to do arms and shoulders, as well! I'll try to hop in here tmrw. Hope you guys have a nice Friday night. I'm about to get in bed and read. Lol!!

Re: Welcome to the March Exercise Check In

My, it's quiet here today. Hi, Future, it's great life will slow down a little. No workout for me today, as I've been cleaning all day....and got only one room done! Yikes. Did all the little things I usually overlook. Also took off the fleece sheets, time tp go back to percale. Washed the sheets and my pillow, too. Qnd the mattress cover. Will have a nice fresh bed tonight!

Re: Welcome to the March Exercise Check In

Hi all, I did not much of anything either. DH worked this morning, I did some laundry. Then when he got home we went to the Annual Builders show which turned out to be disappointing.

Nomless my fleece sheets will be on for some time to come. It said we were at 32 today but 22 mph winds made it feel really cold and we still have like 3 feet of snow on the ground. I don't want to get my hopes up for warmer weather because it doesn't happen. We're at 25 now. You will sleep good in the clean sheets and covers!

Pppmint I think your warming up too, but I know you like it cool. Hoping you are having nice weekend and DH does't have to work too much.

FUTURE glad to see you are slowing down some and can get back full force! Sore is good!

Not much on the tube tonight. DH is watching hockey. I wanted to watch the movie on Hallmark but it looks like hockey wins out.

Waving to all!

Re: Welcome to the March Exercise Check In

Hi everyone!

We really enjoyed watching and cheering for the athletes in the CF Open yesterday and yes, nomless, we heard some moaning.{#emotions_dlg.laugh} The energy in the air is awesome!

DH and I ran there and back. Then we cleaned both vehicles in and out...we were 50* with the sun shining so it felt like spring! It was 30* when we ran to the Open but I still worked up a sweat.

Looked at appliances again and went for burritos, which made me laugh because I realized we have a birthday party for my gf's husband this afternoon after church and she's doing Mexican. I rarely choose Mexican.

nomless, I almost switched my sheets Thursday night but went with the fleece again, good thing too since it was 54* inside the house Friday morning. I keep it so cold in our house, the outside temps don't really have a lot to do with which sheets I use...lol! It's cold in winter and it's cold in summer. {#emotions_dlg.laugh}

Okay, taking Lucy for a stroll then church. Have a great day everyone!

Re: Welcome to the March Exercise Check In

What happened to my post???? Grrr. It was off topic, mostly about a slicer grater gizmo that got form Q. It got lousy reviews, I think, butI love it just for slicing strawberries. Did a quart including cleanup and putting away the berries and gizmo in under 10 minutes. It's not listed on Qw now, but was a bowl, 5 disks for slicing, grating that fit into the lid that has a hopper for the food and a hand crank. Love it. I have more cleaning to do but don't want to. Will try to get in a workout. It sounds like you had a nice day yesterday, Patty. Bopper, sorry you have to wait for spring. We'll probably have one more snow storm, but for now spring is here.

Re: Welcome to the March Exercise Check In

Hey all, wasn't feeling good today so laid low, rested in bed and did pretty much nothing. The sun came out about an hour before it set today. Hope it's out tomorrow.

Watching a netflix movie now...

Waving to everyone!
