    @Deeder522 hope you enjoyed your visit with your BFF.

    @Elfirose33 what a workout with your trainer!! So much in a short time. Definitely deserve that rest day.

    @lclark04957 great job on your streak! And agree with manual labor as a natural gym.

    In-laws just pulled out. I was able to get a walk in each morning as expected, a 3 mile, 2 mile and 3 mile. Also did quite a bit of outside work while they talked to a realtor. So fairly active weekend. Now getting all the laundry done and house cleaned!

    I had a good time in Kalamazoo. I was there from 2 PM until about 8:30 PM. Got to see many different dogs. BFF was showing her Alaskan Klee Kai's for UKC but had her whole pack, which includes an old white fluffy rescue, a greyhound, and Basenjis. She started her Kennel with the Basenjis and added the AKK in the last couple of years. They will be up here, in Grand Rapids, for about 2 days before they hit the road to OK & TX for more shows. She and the whole team spend all of June on the road for dog shows/events.
    Saturday I took as a recovery day. Today, being Father's Day, I'm letting Ryan take the lead on what happens. Maybe a walk later this evening, he says.

    It was Father’s Day so I pretty much chilled and enjoyed the day with hubby, but I must have moved more than I thought. The whole reason I’m trying to get healthier is to do exactly that, enjoy life and family. Sometimes a goal needs a rest day.

    June Goals

    Mileage Tacked: 41 / 75
    Apple Challenge: Close my exercise ring 17 times. 12 /17

    Yesterday was very chill for us. We got Ry a DSLR camera, and he spent 90% of the day learning about it and testing it. πŸ˜€ I already did my Park walk this morning and started laundry. I'm trying to get most things done so I can visit 1 ore time with the BFF before she leaves the state tomorrow.

    Everyone has been making June THE best month. Strong πŸ’ͺ and hitting goals!!

    Took a rest day yesterday. We were exhausted by everything we got done over the weekend and our guests. Still got my steps in though, so on track for the 2 million by end of June.

    @Deeder522 what a great father's day for you and Ryan.

    Rest days are important @lclark04957 so glad you enjoyed yours.

    edited June 17

    Yesterday I walked Dottie 25 minutes. Update to my June goals: I have decided to stop doing personal lunges this month, as of yesterday, due to having a fantastic personal trainer in my life now. The lunges he's having me do (and everything else too) are so much harder than the ones I was doing on my own (even though mine were pretty tough too). This is so I can: 1) truly recover on the off days, and 2) do more stretching instead, which is what I think I really need right now. Also, he told me he's going to pick up the pace with me since I did so well at my first session last Friday. That's a compliment for sure, even though it does make me a little nervous about my immediate future πŸ˜¬πŸ˜… More later.

    @lclark04957 Great job!

    @megd44 It truly was. Excellent job getting great walks in and outside work done while company was in town. Gold Star!! ⭐️ I hope you can relax into the laundry and cleaning and have some fun! πŸ’™

    @Deeder522 Cool! Dogs are so fun, and hanging out with your BFF! Well done on your mileage and rings!

    I'm taking a recovery day after a late night with the BFF.🀣 I had dogs in my lap for a good portion of the evening. 🐢 Also, it's so dang hot today. The workouts will most likely be inside for the rest of the week.

    I decided I'd Woman Up and take a walk around the farm this evening. It was dusty, and there was a bit of a breeze that helped, but it was a slower walk. πŸ˜€

    Today I mowed for 30 minutes then walked Dottie for 25 minutes.

    @megd44 I hope you can get some more rest 🧑 Wow, outstanding job being on track!!! I'm sure that was no easy feat, well done!

    @Deeder522 Nice rest day. Oh that's fun with all the dogs! Good job walking in the dust and heat. I love slow walks the best.

    It rained last night and looks like rain, on & off, today and tomorrow. YouTube workout for Improved Health this morning to the rescue. 45 sec of 1 movement, then 15 sec walk in place. 15 minutes later, I'm warm and done. A lot of arm movement today, too.

    @Elfirose33 We haven't mowed in about a week. We knew that it was starting to warm up, and no rain forcasted for a while. So our yard is a bit long, but all the white clover has bloomed.

    @lclark04957 Going stronger through the month!

    @megd44 2 million steps by the end of the month!! Incredible!!! 🀯

    @zichab I hope you're staying hydrated and enjoying your time in Vegas!
