I walked w/DH and Bean this morning for 4.0 miles in 91 mins (6.20 total miles for 13,529 steps) then got on the recumbent for 12.50 miles in 45 mins and an episode of Bosch then went to 1st grade. Now I'm going to read.
Hope everyone is doing okay.

Kathy sounds like a great time. I am so envious!
Chris those last darebees are going to hurt! Had to work late. Only got in a walk today.
Shelley0 -
Kathy, so glad you had fun!
Shelley, yeah...I'm working up to them.
Walked w/DH and Bean for 4.0 miles in 90 mins (6.20 total miles, again, for 13,538 steps) then got on the bike for 12.75 miles in 45 mins and an episode of Bosch then went to 1st grade then went to the grocery store without my grocery list...really do dislike when I do that. Got one out of four things on the list which means I'll have to go back in a day or two. **sigh**
Have a great Wednesday.

Another good day in Orlando. Back to Universal for another day. I got in 17,359 steps for 6.9 miles.
Yes, Michelle I was in Hogwarts Heaven! Diagonal Alley, Hogsmead, several great rides, the Leaky Cauldron and Gringotts.
Headed to bed.

Walked w/DH and Bean for 4.0 miles in 90 mins (5.81 total miles for 12,694 steps) then got on the bike for 12.75 miles in 47 mins and an episode of Bosch then I went to 1st grade, and now, I'm very tired!! I am sore everywhere! I hope my weigh in tomorrow is better than last week. The scale thing, you know.
Chris0 -
Walked with girlfriend at work today. It's been suggested that we start a walking group at lunch. Should be great.0

Paula a walking group is a good idea. Hope you can get one together!!
Today is our rest day. Weighed in and I'm down!!! According to my scale I'm at 137.8! Happy! Going to 1st grade in a little while. I have several challenges to catch up on, so I'll get them done tomorrow.
Have a great Friday everyone!

I've started walking at work this week.
On level ground my hip doesn't hurt as much.
Really rough day at work today - nobody does our work when we're out so right now it's just doing one thing after another, knowing they're all really past due, but not being able to do anything about it except plow through.
Chris, Nice that you're down, but now we won't have to shave your head and your 1st graders won't get to draw hair on you afterward.

Good morning ladies. I was supposed to be home yesterday but we had car trouble and I'm in a hotel in Ocala, Fl and my car is at the Nissan dealer. Hopefully the repair will be complete today and we can get home. Thankfully the kids and their parents drove a separate car so they got home yesterday.
My BFF and I are playing the waiting game. I'm very upset because there was absolutely no warning that my transmission would go out. I called my local Nissan dealer that I take my car for service regularly...I. Fact I had it serviced on Sat and left on Sun.
Of corse my warranty just expired...how convenient. But the local dealer suggested I call 1-800-Nissan1 and tell them my story and request a refund of the costs. He said I've paid a lot of money on regular maintenance and they should give this consideration. I called yesterday and I'm waiting for a decision on Monday. In the mean time we are trying to get home. Hopefully I'll get my money back.
Most importantly I hope to get home today otherwise it will be Monday.
Send good thoughts our way. Vacation was fantastic by the way.

Chris - Congrats on the awesome weigh-in!! Have fun with the first graders.
Kathy - What an ordeal! Since you were just at Hogwarts, perhaps you should try waving your wand with a simple incantation of "Automobilus Reparo"?
Hope it gets fixed in as pain-free of a manner as possible.
Did this No Capes workout yesterday! It's a nice rest day workout that I felt still gave me a good burn.
We got 5 inches of snow overnight, and I'm needed at the ranch to run a trail since the ranch manager will be at a wedding all day. I love the ranch, and I don't always mind snow, but these two things together . . .

Kathy, I so dislike car stuff! So sorry you had to deal with all that especially after just having it serviced. Hope you get your money back. Hope you get home soon.
Michelle, what is ...to run a trail?
I did our No Capes and the Tribute workouts today. I liked ours a whole lot better. I did, however, use the Tribute squats for our workout. Too many squats for this girl!!
I walked w/DDD at the gym, too many people on all the equipment and occupying all the spaces because of the rain!! Then I walked w/DH for 5.0 miles in the rain and in 90 mins then I got on the bike for 12.30 miles in 45 mins and a episode of Bosch then I did the two challenges then I did 40 assisted pull ups. Now I'm just going to sit here and read!
Having lunch w/friends Sunday and Monday.
Hope you are all doing great!

I'm home. Tennis match tomorrow. Going to bed. Great vacation otherwise.
Kathy0 -
Welcome home, Kathy! Good luck at your tennis match - I'd be tired after all that ordeal with your car over vacation. Hope that doesn't put a damper on you kicking some major butt.
Chris - Running a trail is basically just making sure it all goes smoothly - bringing the horses in, feeding/grooming/tacking them up, checking the trails for any spots to avoid and plot out a possible route, giving a demo to the guests, getting them on their horses, guiding them for the ride, then getting them down, and making sure nobody gets hurt in the process. Then, untacking the horses and turning them out - my favorite part! The horses appreciate it SO much.0 -
Kathy I am saying a prayer for you tonight. I hope they cover at least half the costs. Sounds like you had a great time in Florida!
Michelle we had about 16 inches a week and a half ago. I still had to go to work! It was great moisture. I am so over snow this year though. You are so wonderful to those horses!
Chris I still love them assisted pull ups! You rock!
So this female co worker has never liked me. But we have both worked in courts together. In District court mainly. Our leaving Sgt. moved her to circuit court. Not my decision. I had no clue. As you all know I try to get in 30 minute walks each day at work. Been doing it for over 2 years. Well the little whiny witch told our corporal that she feels she is being punished and that my walking up on 5th floor is rubbing it in her face! So now I have to limit my time in the back of the court rooms! That is the only floor that I can walk a continuous loop on! And now because of her whining I can not. Well I was told that I can still walk in the front of the courtrooms. So now I walk the fifth floor, down the stairs to fourth floor, across its length and up the other stairs to fifth again. Guess I am doing stairs from now on. I so am not going to let her stop me from walking! This really sucks!
So if I gained some weight it is just me being sorry for myself and eating chocolate.
Let's roll some dice Chris!

- Everyone ignores the fact you've done this for 2 years, it's good for your health, which is good for the office...
- She claims you've started to do this now that she's there simply to rub it in her face...
- She doesn't get labelled as paranoid????

Paula that is it in a nut shell! She should have been told to just grow up! When people ask me why I am not walking my hall ways I am half tempted to tell the truth. The other half says let it go and just say I needed a change. I hope the old bag retires soon.

Shelley, so sorry. I've worked with people like that. It's hard sometimes. You've taken the high road, feel good about yourself. And you are still walking at lunch!
Michelle, that sounds like fun...hard work fun but fun! Glad you like it.
Kathy, how is your mom?
Walked w/DH this morning for 5.40 miles in 110 mins (7.32 total miles for 15,681 steps) then got on the bike for 13.75 miles in 48 mins and an episode of Bosch. Then I had lunch w/friends then shopped. A full day!
Hope everyone has a fun-filled Monday!

My team won 2 of 5 matches yesterday. My doubles partner and I did not win but we played well. I think we were both tired from our vacation and the stress of the car issue.
My mom's procedure is this morning. I'm headed out now. It is out patient but she is 79 so I look at everything as serious but she is a very strong women so I'm sure everything will be okay.
Shelley, unfortunately we alol have encountered someone like this unhappy person. She's miserable and chose you as her target. I'm glad you can still walk at lunch. Ignore her!
Have a good Monday!
