Hurt my shoulder today. Kind of worried about this one. Have had shoulder pain before but this is different. Hope I did not push myself at the gym to hard. Was pretty angry and emotionally upset when I went. So I know I pushed myself hard. Gym normally will make me feel better for a couple hours. Hopefully I did not do…

Joyce my thoughts are with you and DH. Rough day but came home ate a good dinner and did a kettle bell workout since I could not get to the gym. Not as good as gym but at least I did not slack off. Gym for sure tomorrow. Anne from Wisconsin

Finished up yard work today. Wish I could enjoy working in my yard like some of you do. I dread it all the time. Back in the day when I was married we did it together. For some reason it was more enjoyable back then. Maybe because it was time together. Met a friend at the bar today had a drink and talked for awhile. We are…

Good morning ladies. Going to try and finish yard work today. Not very motivated. Woke up filled with anxiety. Can't seem to shake it today. Reading a new book that was recommended about learning to accept who you are and to love yourself more. Should not have read it before bed. Making me really face how I feel about…

Mowed the grass today. It was so long took me twice the time. It rains everyday lately so it is growing like crazy and could not mow because it was so wet. Starting to sprinkle now so rest of it will have to wait till tomorrow. Going to dinner tonight for my future dl birthday. Looked at menu not a single good choice on…

CJ your not going depress anyone for venting. I am glad your friend was so understanding. That must be a relief. It is always hard to have to cut someone out of your life especially if you wanted it to work so badly. I know how that feels. You will get back on track. Don't beat yourself up. We all fall of the good eating…

Have not posted for a bit but have been keeping up on the posts. Many new people greet to see. I love this group. Alway supportive through good and bad. Have enjoyed the pictures that have been posted and all that is going on in your busy lives. For those of you going through some kind of pain physically or emotionally I…

Nice. I had the the black dress that motivated me. Still have the dress still fits. Keeps me on track with maintenance. Anne from Wisconsin

Katla so excited for you. Hope you enjoy the visit. Went back to the gym today. Felt good. Makes a difference in my mood for sure. Only got 40 minutes in but was grateful for that. New tat hampers some of it. Starting to really itch so by thursday I should be back to normal length and normal workout. Saffron I know it can…

Happy Mothers Day to everyone. Spending my day with my fur baby today. Maybe some yard work. StephanieJane feel the same way about everyones life here also. Feel mine is pretty mundane and boring. Lol No gym today can go back tomorrow. Going to the gym makes a big difference to my attitude and how I feel about myself. Hope…

No gym today because of newest tattoo but took dog for a nice long walk. Weather nice and sunny good for the mood and made for a nice walk. Was going to cook chicken on the grill but really windy so going to make chicken tacos instead. Love tacos yum yum. Meg happy birthday. Lenora hope you are feeling better each day.…

Just finished getting my last tattoo till fall. I have a tendency to lose sight that I have faith love and hope. This way I will always carry it with me all the time. Anne from Wisconsin

Never fall in love.

Lenora so sorry you experienced the accident but so happy you did not get hurt worse. Someone was watching over you for sure. Working out at home verses the gym. The only reason I do well at making it to the gym is I go right after work. It is on my way home so that makes it easier. I know I push myself harder at the gym…

Food was an issue today. Did not get enough to be able to go to the gym. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day. Did take my dog for a walk to clear my head. Did not work but she was happy to be walking the neighborhood. Anne from Wisconsin

Goals for May Go to gym 4 times a week. Walk the dog everyday weather permitting. Eat healthy and add more protein to my diet. Try and look at life in a more positive way. (probably hardest of the goals) Anne from Wisconsin

Janet my thoughts are with you and your loved ones. Anne from Wisconsin

Janetr I am so sorry. Virtual hug coming your way. Anne from Wisconsin

Spent the day at the emergency room with my mom. Turns out her heart now beats about 40 more beats per minute than it should. It was causing light headness, nausea, and shortness of breath. Once they read ekg they knew exactly what was going on. Gave her meds it dropped within minutes. They control it with meds she must…

Michelle Deep water aerobics never heard of that. Have to look into that. Let me know how it goes and what you did. Regarding the dress just think the back is to low for a wedding but she feels appropriate. Love the rest of it though. Will share pics once I get some. Anne from Wisconsin

Went to gym again today. Surprisingly enough even after upping my weights for upper body yesterday I feel pretty good. Worked lower body and abs today. Upped weights by 5 lbs for lower too so see how I feel or walk tomorrow. Lol. With my daughters wedding coming up in June things are going to get a little busy soon. Got my…

KJLaMore thanks for the compliment about the hair and change in profile picture. Anne from Wisconsin

Stress reliever, some anger management currently and healthy fit body are why I workout.

Went to the gym today. Upped my weights by 5 lbs. Probably going to pay for that tomorrow. My daughter said that my arms look so much better than before so guess it's paying off. Diet has been good healthy and eating the correct amount of calories. Right now this is what is keeping me going. The only goal I have been…

Got my yard work done this morning was hoping it would make me feel good getting it done but just feel kind of blah. Hurt my shoulder starting my new gas weed wacker. So going to wait till tomorrow to go to gym. Hopefully it will feel better tomorrow. Worked out pretty hard yesterday and feeling that too. Lol. Hell getting…

Sylvia love the pottery. I have a few pcs but I have purchased them from local artist fairs. Not that talented. Been to the gym already this am. Love going early very few people there. Have to shop for a wedding shower gift and get to the bank yet but then day is free to do yard work or something else. May wait till…

Chris I am so c sorry to hear about PB. He sounded like he might be a keeper. Hugs coming your way. Here to vent to of you needed it. Anne from Wisconsin

All this talk of tattoos made me think about how at Vince's company, you had to have your tattoo covered. Some people had to wear long sleeved shirts all day long (even in summer). That was just the company policy. Michele in NC[/quote] There is no policy at my company but all of my tattoos are on my back and covered by…

Took the afternoon off of work and spent the day with my future daughter inlaw. Had a nice afternoon. Then went to dinner with her and my daughter. Made good dinner choices except for the sweet tea. That is my spring and summer drink weakness. Karen great news on the size 8. Patsy I have always wanted to try that. Seems so…

Hello ladies. Went back to gym today it felt good. Could not do my entire workout because of shoulder tattoos still healing. I alway feel like I lose my hope love and faith during hard times, but now that they are permanent artwork on my body they will always be with me. Only faith has to be finished. Every tattoo I have…
