chris you told that story so well I could actually see them playing. So fun. 🤩 People have them tall skeletons all around here. I even saw a headless horseman with the horse rearing up here. Crazy tall. Kathy it was amazing reading up on her. The first person to greet her as she came across the finish line was a woman who…

Kathy this will speak to you. An 80 year old woman completed the Ironman triathlon. She learned to swim at 60 to compete. Amazing Shelley

Chris I am so glad you get to see your grandkids so much. It really is amazing. My mom gets tired lots. But my brother says she is doing better. She loves the chair I bought her. I think the heat, reclining and lumbar features are her favorites. My friend Donnell said the doctor already mentioned the boob has to go. Her…

Kathy thank you for asking. I am well. Worried about my mom and friend. My dog Libby is doing much better. Her knee surgery has been a success. My mom has an appointment next Thursday. Hopefully we'll know more then. I am still keeping part of the display tank covered. Not in a hurry. I really don't want to lose them. They…

Kathy I need more water also. Thanks for reminding me. Chris I want to see the strange creatures. Sounds interesting. Halloween was busy. Lots of kids. Handed out Harry Potter themed candy bars. Been busy helping my friends with their son. Watching him since my best friend's wife was just diagnosed with breast cancer. It's…

Chris I love silly stuff. Why don't you like your new grinder? Kathy that sounds so fun. Harry Potter themed! Take care of that back! Shelley

Kathy my goal is to reach 140 Now if I can just get under 145! Shelley

Thanks you gals. Back is loosening up some. Kathy your aunt is still young. She will love her new apartment. Especially with visits from you. Chris I am sure they did. I love seeing all the costumes. Libby amazes me more each day. She is improving so much. Worked out with friends last night. Great upper body. Back is…

Chris thank you. I did ice. Lots. I took the pain meds that were prescribed to me for something else. 4 days worth. They were a bit expired but did the job. Even had some muscle relaxers from a fall I had. Stretching helped. Moving helped. Sitting was great until I had to get up. So I avoided sitting for as long as I…

Kathy I am bouncing back and forth with a pound also. Ridiculous really. Chris ice is your friend. Or maybe a different podiatrist. I over did it last Tuesday at the gym. Lower back hurts so much. Dug out some strong pain killers from my last dental issue. They are helping. Felt well enough to plant some tulips. Libby is…

Chris I like Sunshine. Would probably end up Sunny This is him and a wrasse swimming beneath him. Not a fancy tank. But has served its purpose. I am glad you are enjoying your trainer as much as possible. Shelley

Kathy thanks. But it's only a first goal. Heading downward hopefully to 140 by December. Did water changes on all our tanks. Went to yoga today. We had a sub. She was different. But I really liked her different style. Crocheting toppers for my kitchen towels. Doing ones for Halloween now. Shelley

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…

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. Shelley

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…

Well I find that disturbing is so adorable. 🥰 Chris I put movies on my Kindle. And my mom does it on her laptop. Kathy that is great news. I couldn't imagine not being able to workout. Like a nightmare. My weight this morning was 145.9 Going for 140 by end of November. Libby can now walk more. Going to put her leash on her…

Kathy you are so right. Listen to your body. So excited for you. I have been snuggling with Libby all day. Chris icing is what works or me. Got me through the academy both times. I want a donut too. Update on Libby. Seemed to be able to get around a little more today. Not really putting weight on the foot yet though. Her…

And Chris do wall pushups. Use it or lose it my friend. Shelley

Chris I so am with you. We just never know how good we have it until it's gone. I am happy that you can keep your trainer longer. I think people want to much for home's myself. I feel so bad for young people wanting their first home. But I see it both ways. Hmmm, what about icing your foot more. Or rolling it on one of…

Chris have a good Monday sounds so much better when you're retired. 😃 Shelley

Chris I ate cake with ice cream! Hopefully you hear from your doctor soon. Kathy 🤞 crossed that you can begin to work out soon. My mom goes back tomorrow. We will meet my sister about halfway there. Libby goes into the vets first for her surgery. It will be a really long day. Shelley

Chris you both deserve some time together by yourselves. Enjoy 😊 Kathy thanks. Now if I can stay there. My mom is doing better. Had her icing for a few days. We are going to the Silver Fox for dinner tomorrow night. Celebrating my birthday with my mom for the first time in years. Then taking her home on Wednesday. Probably…

Chris I am not sure if the horses were recovered. I sure hope so. The exploding potato sounds awesome. I hope you hear back from your doctor soon. I was so hopeful for you. I think Libbys doctor could squeeze you in. 😘 I am very hopeful for her. I think he popped her knee back in when he was examining her. She has been…

I love the changing color of fall leaves. 🍁 Beautiful Shelley

The top one started off with a nice shoulder roll. Then kept getting harder with each exercise. But the second one had a lot of floor exercises which I was definitely liking more. Reminded me a bit of yoga at times. Nice choices Chris My little shih tzu Libby has to have surgery on her back leg. The knee cap keeps popping…

Chris thank you. She is sore. And her forehead has a nasty bruise. But in good spirits. Been getting her to ice her neck often. And keeping her from overdoing it. She has been taking pictures and watching the deer. Strange happening. There are several horses wandering around on the mountain. Not wild. No idea whose they…

Wow Chris that was a late night. I don't envy you. We got more of the ceiling done. Added a 3rd set of scaffolding. Sadly my mom fell. I went out to the truck to look for her coffee. She wants to be independent. Tried to throw her garbage away and tripped on a hose. Fell forward and hit her head on a wooden ladder. Mind…

Chris I had to laugh at your total rest day. I need one. But I keep climbing scaffolding instead. I surprised myself when I managed to step a foot out from the loft onto the scaffolding. As long as I can grab something I am good. So glad your foot is healing. It will get there. Kathy we are neck and neck in the weight…

Chris we were doing the ice cream every night also! With toppings and a banana sometimes. We recently bought small dessert cups to help with portions. It helps and the cups are nice. Working on installing the ceiling today. I had plenty of hot tea and water. It is nice to see it going up. I like working on the scaffolding.…

This is what I was actually wearing. Crazy the difference clothes make. And thanks Chris. Still babying myself. Hopefully feel better tomorrow. 150.4 this morning. Goal is 147 by September. Shelley
