    Went to the water aerobics class. The plan for tomorrow is to do Michelle Doizois’s Cardio Strength Fat Blaster DVD

    M – I double everything KJ said about you. Congrats on completing your program! So proud of you

    Sun just came out so I think I’ll go in the pool. Cut the grass and weedwacked

    Sherndon – welcome to the group! MFP and the “m” group. For years I’ve been at the same weight, up maybe a pound or two, down a pound or two, but always in the same ballpark (at least it isn’t going way up). Just recently now that M has struck, I find that no matter what I do, there is this flab. Someone recommended that I restrict my carbs, which is real hard since I absolutely love my fruits and veggies. Cookies, cakes etc. don’t really call my name. But a sweet, fresh peach – look out!

    Rebecca – good luck to you. I’ll be thinking of you Tuesday. I love purple potatoes as much as I love sweet potatoes.

    Kelly – kiss Joaquin for me

    Lenora – always good to hear from you

    Cbessell – welcome!

    Rori – boy, things have really been hopping for you. Thanks so much for checking in.

    Machka "Tired this month" small wonder! Hope the weekend is restful and restorative. Ditto what Karen in VA said.
    Margaret and Carol, thanks for the Kombucha info. Have a friend who makes it and it is yummy. Then she showed us the "mother". Yuck. Doubt I could trust myself to be careful enough to avoid contamination or over fermenting so won't be making it at home. At this point it's too spendy for me to incorporate daily, but if conditions change/warrant I'll reconsider. Someone mentioned ginger or turmeric kombucha, now THAT I'd try, if I could find it!
    KJ so looking forward to new Joaquin pics ;)
    Katla lens "color might not match" original? Pfaugh!
    Rebecca "shelf" mystery circular stains... hmm. . . Alien saucer landings? What DebCountsAll, Katla and Barbie said, taking a class in an activity that interests you is the best way to meet folk with similar interests... and you can choose your level of involvement! Keeping good thoughts for Thursday.
    Sue in Wa Beautiful pic, lucky Bandit!
    Lenora "not getting into the petty gossip or trying to change anyone." Wise words, gal friend.
    Rori so glad your car got fixed in time for your western slope trip, which sounds delightful. Thank Goodness for Nextdoor.com, keeps us apprised of the critter sightings, this week it's a bear and her two cubs up a few ridges and a pea hen eatin' cougar within a half mile [shudder]. Joe's hooked up an extra flood light down on the driveway we can switch on and off from the house. He's been great about coming up with critter deterrent ideas AND implementing them.

    Welcome sherndon, cbessel. Let us know what you'd like to be called and a general location so we can keep you straight.

    Fell asleep during massage today, so glad therapist is immune to my snoring! Up at oh dark thirty tomorrow to car pool with new T'ai Chi buddy to dog show in Bandon. Looking forward to getting to know her better.

    Slacking on knee exercises has taken its toll. Time to get down on the floor NOW.

    Sleep sweet, lovelies!

    Saturday -- chilly but nice winter's day.

    My husband and I walked about 900 metres to a local grocery store and back plus a bit. Then we wandered around our yard.

    And then I rode the trainer for an hour ...


    Distance: 23.60km
    Elevation: 203m
    Moving Time: 1:03:44
    Elapsed Time: 1:04:05

    ..................... Avg ................ Max
    Speed ............. 22.2km/h ........ 54.0km/h
    Heart Rate ...... 130bpm .......... 150bpm
    Cadence ......... 79 ................. 123
    Power ............ 89W .............. 201W



    We need to set up trainer for my husband.
    Problem: cannot put Bike Friday on trainer, but need step-thru of some sort.

    I had hoped that I could adjust our JetBlack trainer so that the small wheels of the Bike Friday would fit. There is some adjustment, but not enough.
    So now ... I either need to find a more adjustable trainer or locate a step-thru of some sort that will fit Rowan.
    Or find a decent stationary bike, I suppose, but he'd like to use Zwift with me.

    Rori I hope your project is completed soon. We are getting new carpet for our basement. I decided to paint it so it has been torn up for over a month. The carpet is ordered now so the end is in sight.Fortunately it is not in our main living area.

    Allie have fun at the wedding.

    Lenora     good to see you post.

    :heart:

    Greetings from Ohio!
    Will be short as I need to get ready for work, but wanted to pop in. I agree with the being off this month. My DH keeps asking if I am okay.....I really am okay, just off. I did manage to get over 7 hours of sleep for the past 2 nights! Sure beats the 5 I had been getting ;)
    We have been working on the model a wiring since Wednesday after work. Massage was wonderful on Monday. Painted wine glasses with ladies group on Tuesday. I will have to post pic when get on computer. App won't let me :( Tonight I get to spend time with both my daughters at a Norwex party. Oldest will be spending night with me. No car shows this weekend as the shelby is at the beauty shop. At 11 years old, she needed some extra TLC. Have to drive yo Detroit on Monday for my husband's eye appointment. It is about a 3.5 hour drive one way. We go every 8 months.

    Knee exercises? Tips? My right one still bothering me badly. Arthritis and an old injury.

    Ladies.....you all continue to inspire me with your strengths, ideas, commitment, and love. Remember you are each special and important!

    Prayers to those in need!
    Congrats to all the successes!

    Heather - Good luck! You’ve got this!

    KJ - Can’t wait to see photos! Enjoy every minute you can with the kids!

    Machka - Can any of your cycling friends loan you what you need? Continued hugs and prayers.

    I think I’ll go to the local farmers market this morning. It will get me out of the house. Hopefully my landscape guys show up this morning to finish. They left a big pile of dirt/mulch in the street and another on the side of our shop.

    Happy Saturday!
