WOMEN AGES 50+ FOR JUNE 2023

Did a body pump DVD then before it got too hot walked to Food Lion to get Triscuits that Vince likes that are on sale. I need to walk there a couple more times to get the rest of the Triscuits and potato chips

Then went to Aldi, then got dinner ready, then made yogurt in the IP, went in the pool. We got the new pump today but I also got my check for $1500 for the jewelry. Then made chocolate cupcakes for Vince (only don’t tell him that I used silken tofu instead of oil. You can’t taste the difference). No plans for tonight

Anne DE – I’m impressed with the exercise you do. Where do you get the numbers for the amount of calories you burned?

Of all the “diets” out there, I think WW is the best. It doesn’t restrict anything. It makes you accountable. You can still have something that isn’t on the “diet”, but you have to be accountable for it. Counting points, calories or whatever it may be.

Rosemarie – cry – it’s good for the soul. What is body doubling? ((HUG))

Heather – what a lovely place!! Thanks for the pics

Kim – you preferring your new choices over the old reminds me of when I first had shiratake noodles. Honestly, I didn’t care for them. Too rubbery. But the more I ate them, the more I didn’t mind the rubberiness. Now, to be honest, I prefer them to pasta. I don’t know that I’d care for them in spaghetti sauce since the sauce wouldn’t stick to them. One time Jess made this chicken which was on a bed of pasta. I asked her if I could have shirataki noodles instead, mainly because I prefer them.

Rita – praying for things to work out for you eventually. Really like that you’re using food as your medicine. Honestly, I don’t like to take a pill unless I absolutely have to

Took a walk for a little over an hour after dinner tonight. Went into the neighborhood adjacent to us just for a change of pace. I may go to the lady in SC on Friday to get bisq I had ordered from her. Since I made that commitment and she went to the trouble and expense of pouring it for me, I think it only right that I purchase it. It all depends, really, on the weather. If it’s cloudy and I can’t go in the pool, I’ll go to her place. Am I bad or what?

My pedometer is toast, I’ve decided definitely. I walked to Food Lion this morning and it said I only took 5 steps. Tried everything, removing the battery for hours and everything. Nothing helps so I think it’s hit the dust. I did purchase a new one from Amazon which should be here Friday. Everything I’ve read says that it’s accurate and easy to set up.

Got the new pump for the pool. Vince said that I’d have to get out of the pool when they were installing it since they were working with electricity. But they said that I didn’t since they turned off the breaker. So I didn’t

Now to get to bed.

Here we are at the first river crossing. From the left, one of our tour hosts, Kris, from Catalonia, then me, hubby, and my two boys.

Look who came to see us last night! We could see them a long way away. The ship stopped and they swam right up to us and put on a performance! Absolutely wonderful ❤️. Just underneath our balcony.




Today DH is off on a hike up a mountain. Too many steps for me 1500 ft.
I'm going on a short coach tour of the town, Bodø. There is a 13th century church to visit, but most of the town is new, because it was bombed in WWII. 40, 000 inhabitants. Centre for the armed services and admin of the north of Norway.

This afternoon, a tour of the bridge!!(of the ship)

Love Heather, still in the Arctic Circle. Xxxxxx

PS - That looks like some adventure, Flea! DH swam through underground caves when I was laid low. We both did some water drifting. You must be quite fit!
