    Thursday: PT at home stretching, 30 minutes recumbent, 15 minutes indoor walking, 10 minutes core

    So glad to be working out again. I want to reach my goal. These last 10-15 pounds are so hard. And I have to not overdo.

    Shelley good news on Libby’s recovery.

    Chris really, a 2 year old finding something disturbing… I laughed so hard.

    I swear I posted yesterday…yeah, maybe didn't hit the button.🤯

    Glad I could give you ladies a good laugh. He is the funniest kid.

    I'm happy for you Kathy. Glad you can workout again! Shelley, I hope Libby is doing better. Sorry about your wool top.

    We had Collin this morning then I went to my trainer at noon for a 60 min workout. Ronan was here this afternoon. I got him two dragon books I hope he likes. He has to do reading for his class every night and enter it in a reading log. He looked at the books and said he'd read them. We'll see if they even get out of his backpack…🤗

    I may try to walk a little this weekend. If it doesn't work out, I need to get on the bike.

    That's it.

    Chris I remember when we did that a lot. Just not hit send. 🤪 Good plan. If you can't walk get on that bike.

    Kathy Libby is such an amazing little gal. I know I have said it, but I can't imagine not lifting weights. 🏋️‍♀️ Especially if they told me I couldn't. So glad you are taking it easy. The last 10 pounds are always the hardest.

    Libby likes her heating pad more than the ice pad. So that is nice. She over did it today and was pretty tired. 🥱 Tomorrow she needs to walk a little more.

    Last night's workout session is making me sore. So yoga was perfect this morning. Lowest weight in years this morning. 144.9 Finally can say 145 I should be good tomorrow morning. Not to much junk today.

    Water changes on all tanks today. Printed off photos of the 4 larger fish in my care. Taped them on the outside of the tank they are not in. Trying to get them used to seeing each other. Hopefully can move them all in together soon. Planning on moving the photos around every day. The Masked purple angel was rather unhappy about the invaders. Hopefully it will go smoothly.

    Here is Bandit. Rocky named her. All angels are born female. She was 1/2 inch when I got her. Almost 2 years ago. She was hatched in captivity. So obviously never in the ocean. Much healthier and sustainable.

    Big Congratulations to you Shelley! You hit your fist goal!! Be so proud of yourself! And she looks like a Bandit, Shelley! Beautiful!!! Glad Libby is doing better.

    We went to Target this morning.Wow! I haven't been there in a loooong time! So much to see but I was W/Patrick and after we got my Sudafed we went to get him a small backpack…which don't exist, by the way…and beef jerky, and that was it. Walking w/him, all the isles just flew by without inspections. So much to see and I couldn't!!! When the man has a destination, it's in and out. I need to talk to Sara about a shopping day…her and me.😁

    I am going to sit, drink coffee and read for the rest of the day.

    My foot is getting better but I don't want to mess it up again, so I'm going to get on the bike after groceries get here around 1:00. Pat is getting me a movie to watch. I'll do about 10 miles again.

    I made a new soup that turned out too spicy for our crowd…I tamed it down and my sweet husband likes it. I won't make it again. It had too many ingredients and left half of the tomato sauce and evaporated milk in the fridge. I will not use them in anything else…ugh!

    I'm going o read and drink coffee until the groceries get here. Bye!

    Chris that soup sounds very flavorful. Just tame it down some and it will be fine. Oh my, Target and no perusing the isles at a snail's pace? Egads definitely get Sara.

    Thanks, it has been a hard win. And planning on keeping the weight off.

    Bandit is sassy by the way. And occasionally nips at coral. Can't wait for them to all be in the same tank. Here is a photo I

    This is my Yellow Tang. Poor guy has been kept in a 40 gallon tank for about 2 years. If all goes well I will add it to the 100 gallon tank soon. It also was hatched in captivity. Name suggestions anyone?
