    Sara goes back to work today…and summer vacation comes to an end…we'll get Collin this morning and trade boys this afternoon so Ronan can play with Grandpa. That will be the plan until Ronan goes back to school — 3rd Grade — Aug 6th. Then it's supposed to depend on how many clients SIL still has as to when we get Collin. It's gonna make me crazy. Oh, well.

    Must prepare…drink coffee…read dumb news on my phone.

    Bye for now…

    Kathy so glad you pushed out of your comfort zone. 8 pounds, way to go. So glad you're able to spend time with your nieces. Children keep you young. Beautiful girls. And wonderful to think of their brothers.

    Paula is having internet issues.

    Chris glad you got in all that walking. You inspire me.

    I went hiking with friends on the mountain. Almost 6 miles.

    Been hitting the gym lots. Yoga on off days to recharge.

    Rocky had surgery on his hand yesterday. So I got to mow the lawn. 😠 He is recovering nicely.

    Yoga tomorrow. Then taking a 40 pound bucket of salt to the vet clinic. Also some mollies to add to their tank. Hope they do well.

    Kathy keep lifting heavier!

    Chris how are your weight workouts going?

    I love all your pictures, Shelley! Beautiful! Glad Rocky is doing well. Sorry about the mowing…😁

    I graduated to 15s Wednesday!! Just doing curls…3X10…I think that's what they are called…I do elastic rope exercises, too…they get harder to pull and push. My trainer has increased everything…my weekends can be sore sometimes!! Well, gotta get ready for our day. Collin will be here at 8:00.

    Later, my friends.

    Good for you Chris. Got to push ourselves or we will become mush.

    Here is his hand. He has limited pain actually.

    Chris I am in pain now from Thursdays workout. Our YMCA needs more handweights for women. I pushed myself with larger weights. There were not enough smaller ones. Side raises were okay when doing 10 rep sets. But then she had us do 25! reps. That was pushing it. Rows with 25 lbs are ok also. I would like to remember what she had us do. I would add it on off days. I took some photos yesterday.

    Shelley, Rosy Rhino is beautiful…Rocky's hand is not!! Glad he's doing better.

    I managed 5.14 miles in 113 mins to Laurel Park and home. That's where the rocky road used to be. They are building a lot of houses there. I did trudge coming home.

    Sara and Pete asked if we'd watch the boys while they went to dinner. We said yes to early afternoon. It was only a couple of hours but man!! I'm exhausted!

    Gotta eat now. Bye until tomorrow.

    Chris
