20 min walk with Leslie and 6 minutes of Arms with Jessica to start my day.

I didn't get much sleep last night due to some storms that came through. I had to be up early for my mammogram today too. Taking today as a much-needed rest day. Tomorrow, I should be back at it and on Sunday I'm going to the Lantern Festival at the Zoo with some friends. I know I'll get some mileage that night.

Got my walk at the Park in 1st thing this morning and even played around with the fitness court. A little bit of rain and then we settle into a lovely weekend.

Happy May Day!! May Goals Mileage tracked 80 Apple Challenge: 12 workouts of 5 minutes or more for the month. I hope to continue to add more strength training this month. We're looking at 70's through the weekend so I'm hoping to pop out early and get my walks in. Ry continues to gain some strength back. He had an…

I woke up to temps in the mid 55's so I took the opportunity to walk at the park for 1 ¼ miles. I picked up some fresh eggs from the neighbors and now I'm home for the day until my late afternoon appointment at the Chiropractor. The last month flew by. Fingers crossed May will be good for both of us. 😊

I'm hoping to jump back into some scheduled exercise this weekend. Home the same day as Brain surgery?!?!?!? When Ry leaves the house, I usually have a snack pack of foods we know are safe and his water. So I was able to give him those. I was also able to massage his legs and thighs to push the blood back into the top half…

Well, Ry had a “crash” towards the end of his visit at Mary Free Bed yesterday. He’s doing better now, but I haven’t seen him “crash” that hard in a long time. He said he couldn’t feel his fingertips and his Left side felt numb. He was dizzy and couldn’t support himself standing or sitting. So that was fun. Spent 30…

forgot to post the link to the workout I mentioned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14IbwFjSKtc

We made it for a 1-mile slow & breezy walk around the farm yesterday. Today, I did a new workout I found through a FB group for Leslie Sanson. Someone posted a link to a workout they did and of course, I had to skim through the YouTube channel. So, 11 minutes walking with weights this morning. This is a little different…

April Goals Miles tracked: 54 / 70 Apple Challenge: Close all my rings 8 times. ✅x8 Earth Day Challenge: TBA This past weekend was township trash day. We packed my son's truckbed and a trailer full of stuff and brought it to the township, where it was loaded into big long dumpsters. This morning I took a carload of broken…

Today's workout was 1st thing this morning. Burn Body Fat 1 Mile with Leslie. I forgot how much arm work is in that 1 mile. My arms are glad we didn't do any more miles. 😝
-
Last night, I went for a walk around the farm. I intended just to do 1 lap but ended up doing 2 instead. Today, I ran errands instead of a workout.
-
I did 2 Miracle Miles this morning. It's a lovely sunny day again but we did get a red flag warning today and a wind advisory for tonight. Any yard work will wait a few days since we are supposed to have rain tomorrow. My Dad ended up getting $6 back from Feds but more from state. I'm convinced that no one knows the tax…

April Goals Miles tracked: 35 / 70 Apple Challenge: Close all my rings 8 times. 7/8x Earth Day Challenge: TBA Happy Tax Day. I paid my federal taxes this morning, and we got your state refund last week. So I'm all good until next year. Saturday, we did some Spring cleaning. Our township has a trash day where we can bring…

So we ended up with a Wind advisory for the day. So my exercise was running around after we lost power to get the house up on the generator. 😕 Our ETR is 1 AM so it should be a fun night. At least Ry had the forethought to fill a bucket so we have water for the toilets. Country live is grand at times. 😜

Last night I met up with a friend for dinner at a local taco place and we split a 20oz bucket of Margarita. I came home and was in bed before 10 pm. Luckily, I slept through most of the night and am no worse for the wear today. Today it was raining all day and more for tomorrow. It was also a day of DR appointments so I'm…

We got to watch the Eclipse as a family. The kid got home just before reaching its totality for our area, about 94%. It was remarkable how the temperature dropped during the event. I was standing where the sunlight was but there was no warmth from it. I'm not sure how but I completed all my rings yesterday without an…
-
The temperature gauge fooled us into thinking it was warm out. We managed 1/2 mile walk in the wind. 😝 We're ready for tomorrow's Eclipse. I was able to pick up "glasses" at our local library.
-
Yesterday, I tried to go for a short walk and ended up in a 45-minute conversation with the neighbors. It took a while for me to thaw out when I got back inside. Today, it was a better walk the temps are near 60, and the sun was out. I've switched up my listening for walking and I'm on the 2nd book in a trilogy of Hockey…

I'm so happy to read all your good news, @zichab. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you keep power through this next snow event. My NY friends, texted me this morning asking if we had snow. Told her, no, we just had freezing rain/rain. She informed me she had 8 inches and sent me a pic of one of the dogs just sitting in…

Today, I ran errands which was good that I got things done but bad that it involved more driving than walking. However, I didn't end up in the drive-thru at any place so I'll take that win. :) Water intake is always a struggle for me. I think I'm supposed to be drinking 90oz a day. I usually have tea every morning so I get…

Welcome, @1PoisonIvy. I look forward to you joining in this month. Those flowers are lovely. I only have daffodils bloom right now. I'm jumping back in tonight to record my 1-mile walk this afternoon. It was a breezy 53℉ but I got it done along with some stretching at the Fitness Court.

April Goals Miles tracked: 70 Apple Challenge: Close all my rings 8 times. Earth Day Challenge: TBA Welcome April! I would like it if April brought more stable weather but they are calling for snow on Wednesday. We are supposed to have a warm-up after that. Warming temp also means getting back to taking care of the house…

Happy Easter 🐣 🐇 🐰. Have you and Dennis considered having some ice wine down my the Lake? 🤣 March was weird. Weather, people, it's all been a little weird. We've already started to find 🐜 Ants this past month. Found a few in the panty yesterday, so I had to deep clean the pantry. That meant I also threw out things that…

It's the final weekend in March and it is Easter too. We are keeping Easter to just the household this time. Our Daffodils have started to bloom and the tulip leaves are coming out. Our Forsythia is blooming its tiny yellow flowers too. Our taxes are filed and we'll finally get a new clothes dryer this year to replace the…

Talked with an acquaintance, who said we should still qualify for insurance and in her opinion the county made errors. I'll try and get in touch with a supervisor on Monday. Last night, I did my arm circuit. I need to do some message work on my calves and feet before I get another walk in.

Well, it snowed. Right now we have about 6" on the ground. The snow is starting to calm down and should be down by Midnight. It was that soft falling snow so at least it looked pretty when it was falling. I haven't done much today, moving or eating. We received the sad news that we will lose our health insurance at the end…

We're under a winter weather advisory for Friday—possibly 6" in my area. That should do wonders for the crops and all things springtime. We had a visit with the Chiropractor today and he gave my ankle and knee some attention. This evening I did a walk for 4 Slim miles. I changed it up and decided to walk until my watch…
