Kylia Happy birthday!

Well my new plan of 250 calories of exercise a day is enough to make my legs sore. Maybe, as they say, pain is weakness leaving the body! I guess I should have expected this. It's a general achiness, I don't think I injured anything. The payoff will be on the scale tomorrow. I hope. I better drink extra water today.

And yes six minutes on the elliptical is a NSV for me. Thank you for reminding me to celebrate!

It's called DOMS ... Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness.

And if you look up how muscle builds, you'll see it actually tears ever-so-slightly and repairs.

When it does that, you retain a bit of water so don't be disappointed if you don't see a result on the scale just yet. Stick to it!

Allie — I love Sleepy Time Tea, too, but my favorite is Peppermint Tea. Both are Celestial Seasons teas. YUM! My daughter lived in Longmont, Colorado, several years ago. The two of us went to the Celestial Seasonings plant in Boulder for a tour. It is a great memory. I came home with several tea flavors. None of the teas I brought home has caffeine. (I get plenty of caffeine in my morning coffee.)😊

Kylia - Happy Birthday!

Lisa - hope your power stays on. My son and DD both take biologics. Son has psoriatic arthritis and started on Embrel when it was still experimental as he worked for the company that manufactures it. He has since been diagnosed with Crohn's and was on Humira but has changed again. He has had good luck with all three. DD uses Humira for reactive arthritis but it also treats her sarcoidosis. Sometimes docs will not prescribe a drug or test because insurance will not pay for it. For example if my PCP asks for a vitamin D-125 it will not be paid for but if my pulmonologist requests it it will. Crazy I think.

We have one very lame horse. She is old (29) and layed down in the mud then had difficulty getting back up. She struggled and finally made it but apparently pulled a muscle. We are giving her bute and using liniment. Hope she improves soon.

Everyone take care, Sue in WA

Going to the Celestial Seasonings factory was one of the highlights of our trips to Colorado(that and the Olympic training center and the Air Force Academy)
The peppermint room was great, as was the tasting room.
We have been there both times we went to CO. We went to see where dh was born.

Regarding Crosswords ...

A few months ago, I found a book of crossword puzzles and started working my way through them. I've not really done crosswords before and I'm not particularly good at them ... plus this book was written in the USA and half the time I don't know what they're talking about ... but doing new things is supposed to be good for the brain.

I go at it as far as I can go, then I look one or two things up, and then try to keep going.

They've got a lot of US presidents and military stuff as clues, and I wouldn't have the foggiest.

Maybe I'll see if I can find an Australian one next.

Sue - I hope your horse feels better.

Machka thanks for the reminder. I will try to keep my hopes reasonable and just plug away at the exercise. Did my dumbbells tonight, and it's yoga in the morning! 🙂

Worked, then Green Room, then I will prebowl for when we’re away. Then came home and made banana bread to put in the freezer for Vince to have when we come home

Carni – one thing I’ve found that works FOR ME is that I try not to eat at night. And if I do, I just have saltine crackers or applesauce. Speaking of saltines – what’s up? I can’t find UNSALTED crackers anywhere. I can usually get the original, not that I want them. But I have looked and looked, can’t find the unsalted ones anywhere

You know we moved our generator from PA to NC and NOT ONCE in the 13 years we’ve been here have we needed to use it.

Beth – thanks for the explanation of the titration test

Lisa – I was just going to ask you how Egg was taking all of this weather! I always freeze my bananas for banana bread and then thaw them out. And speaking of bananas …. they better go on sale soon, my stash is running low. Last time I got them at 19 cents/lb

After work tomorrow have the soup kitchen. Then I’ll stop at the Salvation Army and by then I should be able to use the aerobic room at the gym. Then I want to come home and Vince & I will prebowl some.

Vince went to the bank today (needed to get quarters for the laundry in FL) and then to WalMart for a prescription

add me to the list of people who are grateful for such wonderful friends. Even tho we are spread across this great Earth, I think of everyone frequently. So much reminds me of someone – if I see a dog I think of pip, everytime I use shirataki noodles I think of Heather, every time I use the flosser, I think of katla and so much more. As we go thru GA on the way to FL, I think of all the gals in GA, and so on and so on

Sue I hope your horse knows how much you love her 💞 having a horse is the same as owning a dog or cat but the best part is that you can ride it 🐎 She's fortunate to have you 💞 29 years is amazing!
