    Barbara ... my 5 minutes on a stationary bike was a lot like watching someone in slow-motion ... :D ...but that knee made the revolutions!

    I really didn't want to replace our last dog ... but Cecil does make me smile. He's 6-1/2 months now.

    Did my walking. I am trying to learn to keep my head up and my toes pointed forwards.

    Got the chair, it was a bi455&#$&*h trying to connect with her, but finally found her. My trainer was not working right so we couldn’t ride together for the last two days… Kirby found a spin bike just like his selling for$600 (ours cost 1k or more). Kirby didn’t want to deal with the bike trainer not working for me. I offered $500, we got it. He couldn’t find the plug for it, he was remodeling so he will find it or order a new one and send it to me. The chair is more dirty that the couch was so I will work on that. Found the trainer worked after all, the break assembly was loose. I tested and recalibrated it and it worked fine. Soooo, I listed the trainer on OfferUp for $260 (cost retail $500). Also listed the loveseat, chair and pillows.

    Oops. I ate some cookies, and went over calories. So I walked some extra. My legs feel a tad sore but not bad. I learned I can walk twice in one day! But I will still take off on my dumbbell workout days.

    Well done on the second walk. As you build up, you'll find you can walk just about every day even on dumbbell workout days. :)


    I'm sore today from planting the almost 200 bulbs. I knelt the whole time and there was a lot of leaning forward.

    My glutes (butt) and upper hamstrings are really feeling it today! And my abs a little bit.

    I was able to go to yoga today. Many of my fellow students are back. I learned about one longtime yoga friend who has been put in a nursing home in another state because of alzheimers. He will be missed.

    Morning ladies
    My brother called at 6:45 and woke me up,didnt sleep well so that threw a wrench into the monkey works..will try and get a little more rest and then get up and get some cleaning done..i really have to get some stamina back so that i can get things done.
    Got a call from.social security yesterday seems they havd faxed disability paperwork over twice without hearing anything.. so i called and spoke with office manager.. she said no we havent recieved it ,told her it had been sent twice,ohhhh she looked again and found it ugh.. so here is hoping they get everything over to SS in a timely matter..
    All the rest of the Drs have done there part and with the hospital system i went through they have to have records sent to SS within a 5 hr time period..
    Well i hope everyone enjoys there weekend.

    Lisa ~ So sorry for all your medical woes and hope you get a diagnosis and workable plan soon.

    Allie ~ Hoping SS gets all the paper work they need and fingers crossed you will get your disability.

    Sue ~ I can't have the cataract surgery until I have nodules removed from each eye. Evidently, these interfere with the way light rays are bent as they enter the eye and cause blurriness. The dr said that the procedure will be quick but it has to be done in each eye 3 wks apart to facilitate healing. I do not look forward to it as they will have to put a lens in after they remove each nodule and it may be painful for a few days. After these have healed, I can get scheduled for cataract surgery and hopeful it will be done in September.

    Welcome to all who have been visiting and please continue to stay with us as we love meeting new people and sharing our lives.

    Flowers bring me joy and remind me of the goodness of people. Yellow iris from a friend who has since moved to Texas. It turns out it was a large glorious deep purple that got a Y last year someone giving away hoping would find a good home...

    Penny: Congratulations on completing a half marathon!!! Amazing achievement! :star:

    Lisa: I am sorry about your health issues and hope you will be able to access medicines that will help. You seem to be having a wonderful time with the farmer’s market. Good for you! :flowerforyou:

    Carol: Good wishes for successful eye treatments. :heart:

    KJ: Good luck to your nephews Ben & Ethan as they burn up the track. :star:

    Margaret: The Iris are gorgeous! :flowerforyou:

    Allie: Hoping that Social Security gets the paperwork that it needs so that it can qualify you for disability. :heart:


    I have two determinate tomato plants in my tiny garden. Last year’s beans were frustrating beyond words can say because local deer kept eating the plants. I am not growing beans this year, but I am growing herbs and the two tomato plants. I like to use our dehydrator for the herbs. Blueberry bushes are prospering so far. I should have pruned them in the fall and didn’t, so this year’s crop is likely to have many smaller berries.
