Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Thread

Good morning, everyone.  Rain has stopped after two days...I think.  No flooding in my area but there was some in others.

 

Ho hum...not much to say.  Gonna do cardio clas, weight training class and maybe walking.  The schedule of classes summer schedule comes out today.  Hopefully it is better than the winter one in which, for me, Wednesday and Thursday were on my own days.

 

Well, hope you enjoy whatever the day brings..  If it's lemons, hopefully you can turn it into lemonade.

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Thread

Still getting cold rain here with temp continuing to be in the 40's. Very unusual for this time of year. But after several days of quiet rain, my, so much vibrant green all around. The rain has really helped the trees leaf out. It's lovely.

 

I got a 20% off coupon from HSN, so I got the Jay King aquamarine necklace I saw last week. Even with the coupon, the price was about 50% higher than it was last week. Oh, well, for me it's a special piece being my birthstine, and I've never seen anything like it. Who knows if it will back or at what price point in the future. So I decided to get it now while it was available. It's a five strand nugget waterfall style. I have another necklace in the same style and like it. It can be worn loose or twisted into a torsade. I love aqua and will be happy to have this. Excited for it to arrive! So glad HDN does coupons...wish Q did.

 

My foot still feels ok. I'm so glad I finally went to the podiatrist.....wish I had done it sooner.

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Thread

Just checking in--Happy May Day everyone!  i would deliver a little basket of flowers to you all if I could!

 

I spent the weekend on the couch, sick.  Saturday was so miserable, every joint in my body hurt and I was prepared to go to urgent care yesterday if I felt the same.  I was a little better yesterday, not as achy.  Today, I'm still kind of congested, but nothing like the weekend. I didn't take any cold meds today, so hopefully, I don't need them tonight either.  They are hard on my stomach.

 

I didn't get to practice any routines the last week--because it took everything I  had just to get out of bed and move to the couch. Hopefully, I get back on track this week.

 

We had our traditional spring snow over the weekend. I was lucky and only saw a couple of inches.  Some areas had almost 2 feet!

 

Hope you all have a good day. I'm going to try to do the Quick Fit class at lunch today.

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Thread

Happy May Day everyone, I remember when we were little kids people actually did put a little basket of flowers on your door knob.  Does anyone else remember that?  It was cool!  Not too May like here, on the verge of snowing, cold rain all day and all day tomorrow.  Not that unusual for us though but not welcoming either.  

 

Nomless we have no leaves yet, hardly any buds yet, just too cold out and there is so much water everywhere.  I don't think we are flooding but I know in the woods there is a lot of standing water.  Glad your feet are still doing good and neat you got your necklace with a discount.  I got that 20% off coupon too.  Would like to try those Toms shoes but never know what size to order, some say order down as they stretch but I'm assuming not in length.   I normally need 10.5, well good luck with that....so order 11's in most shoes but I don't want them to be too big either and 10's my toes are to the very end.  Thinking will try the 11's.    Lucy if your reading what would you recommend for me?  

 

Dr.Kelli sorry your feeling punky but it sounds like your on the mend, lay low and lots of rest.  If I was near I'd bring you some homemade chicken soup.  I have some in the freezer, speaking of I think I"ll thaw it out, its a soup kind of day!

 

foxxie rain rain go away, come again another day!   Isn't that the truth!   

 

I did an hour of Pilates today mixing in the rebounder and will not walk today, too crappy out and too cold.   

 

Try and have a good day everyone, dance in the rain!!

@DrKelli, I'm so sorry to hear you're still feelijg badly. Hugs. Don't push yourself, take it easy.

 

Bopper, good luck with the shoes if you order them. I like Q's Skechers TSV, too, but I have little luck ordering shoes....need to try on before deciding....so I will pass.

 

Hi, Foxxie and Mick and Lucy. SFGirl, thinking of you, too, and the race you were training for. When is/was the race?

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Thread

I made it through Quick Fit.  Still feeling a little blah, but hopefully I keep feeling better as the day(s) go on.  I'm supposed to teach the warm up Thursday, but haven't practiced at all due to this plague!

Oh, wow, @DrKelli.  I don't know how you did that while still ill.  Well, you got through it.  Hope you feel better soon.
