Karen--Thanks for sharing the video. This strom is terrible all over.
Machka--Glad they have found the skin cancer early and pray treatment is quick.
Feeling kind of Blah, not sure why. Eating still to much. Not giving up and going to gym after work. DH dropped me off this morning and since he gets off later than I do I have no excuse not to stop and do some newstep and hand weights.

Well Ladies. I hopped on the scale this morning, assuming it would be depressing and boy, it sure was. Now, I have 15 pounds to lose. No wonder nothing fits me except stretchy stuff. I am a bit disgusted with myself, quite honestly.
So, I went on a 3 mile/5K walk. Knee only hurt somewhat. Did leg exercises when I got home and will start upping the protein intake. I need to aim to get 120 grams per day. That is a lot. I will have to use powders.
30 minutes after finishing all that "exercise," my knee doesn't hurt at all and I noticed only minor swelling. So, will try that again tomorrow and see what happens. I will also have to squeeze in my bicep workout today and still try to fit some work in.
I'm also really tired of drinking water. Putting lemon in it has helped a little.
Speaking of water, I listened to an interesting podcast on drinking water and if it's possible to get too much. Link is here: https://www.npr.org/transcripts/1124371309
Hope everyone is doing better than I am!

I went for a walk in the sunshine in the neighborhood. I enjoyed the walk and the Vitamin D3. I’m looking forward to DH joining me here. He may be here in a few days. Keeping my fingers crossed that all works out well for both of us.6

Tina here's some encouragement for you! You can do this, a little at a time. You know the steps. Slow and steady, persistence is key. One day at a time. You will be stronger and healthier!
Katla hope you are not separated for too long.
Rebecca hope you get some good info from your doctor today. And that you find some comfort.
I rode Henry today. His trot is getting better again and meanwhile my legs got weaker. He was a little slow to respond but we got there.

Nice shower set up Pip!
Well, my doctors appointment went well. The doctor I ended up having I had went to see last year with the same issue! He did a belly exam, which my wincing showed that in the area around my abdomen where the large intestines encircle the small, he said he could feel them full. So impacted a bit. So these first two days I am on Meta Mucil and 80 oz of water a day. Then after two days I take Mirilax to soften. I hope that gives me the relief I need. I left feeling hopeful.
My eldest sister called me saying her house had an infestation of elder box bugs! I put it in a spoiler if you are squeemish.💖 She had her house sprayed today, thank goodness. It was like that over her whole house! She mentioned that our middle sister called and wanted to video chat with her. My middle sister never offered condolences, but asked if she had a fun time at the Celebration of Life. It angered me to hear this, my middle sister has no empathy, and I sent her a message on Facebook saying that was callous of her. So middle sister is mad at me. Well I am mad at her too, so we're even.
Bought a huge $30 bag of mini Halloween candy and I will make brownies and use the candy as filler for youngest sailor son's care package. Still trying to get a response outta that kid.
Hugs ladies!

It's great to hear this. I remember not long ago that you were so discouraged about not getting to see your husband and now you can talk to him on the phone and your daughter has taken you to see him and you've found some ways to pass the time at your apartment while he is getting better.

Can't he find the pictures on his own? That way he can find them and look at them when he is emotionally ready.
It is very sad. So much devastation.

Can't he look it up himself. It's his place. As Flea says, he can do it when he is ready.
Otherwise it could come across that you're gloating a little.2 -
