LOL. Sounds like a match for Diana's friend going to church in pajamas.

That's hilarious!

Hi Everyone!

Seabliss Is you DH feeling better. DH is feeling better with the sinus infection. The antibiotic is wearing him down but he's better than he was.

Check-In: TF Fire 55

Have a Blessed evening!

Diana, yes, DH is better! I'm glad your DH is feeling better too.

Yesterday I worked out but didn't get to check in. I did Jessica's Walk/Jog interval mile and three Blogilates lower body workouts. One that I did, "Insane Butt" is in the title, leaves me sore every time. Less than ten minutes but very effective.

Today we had another showing! I did the cleaning thing again, and I also did Bodyfit By Amy: Low Impact HIIT. That one is always good. We've had four showings in the past 8-9 days, so things have really picked up. The one thing we can't fix is the road noise beyond the tree line that borders our large backyard. It won't matter for someone.

Cynthia, glad you're enjoying the voice lessons. That's pretty funny about your instructor. My favorite voice teacher was also very down to earth. She was also very pregnant for many of my lessons, lol, so that probably helped.

Hope everyone else is doing well!

Cheryl

Seabliss Great news that your DH is feeling better and about the showings.

Diana3271 · 01-15-20, 08:11 AM

Good Morning, Everyone!

Last night: Basic stretches
This morning: Oxycise

Have a Blessed day!

Check-in: Pure Barre class. I've been wearing a knee sleeve on top of workout leggings. That way if it's a new-to-me instructor it's like a stop sign to keep them from trying to correct my knee: it doesn't have full range for bending or straightening. But I've noticed my knee has been very comfortable, and no pain at night. The sleeve keeps it warm and more limber than without it.

seabliss · 01-15-20, 08:06 PM

Cynthia, maybe I should wear a knee sleeve. My knee hurt last night while I was trying to sleep. I am focusing on strengthening my glutes and hamstrings (even though I was doing this before) even more because of the type of knee problem I'm having. Hoping that will help!

Today was my upper body day. I did a Fitness Blender upper body strength workout. Also walked a mile.

We have another house showing tomorrow! Things are picking up. This is our 12th showing in almost 100 days, but the 5th in 2020 alone.

DH is in the top spot for the job near Winston Salem. There is a town there that we really like. He's leary of getting another church job after the last situations, so it has to be right. He will go out for more meetings and to lead a rehearsal either next week or the week after.

Cheryl, I got my knee sleeve - it has a zipper - at Marshalls, but I've seen them on amazon and ebay. It's not the kind that is just a tube of Ace bandage material (I've used those but don't care for them). For knee pain, nothing in my experience beats Penetrex; it's on amazon and on its own website where they frequently have discounts. It also doesn't have a strong odor like Biofreeze and Tiger balm do.

Diana3271 · 01-15-20, 09:22 PM

Hi Everyone!

No workout to report. I had my yearly mammogram today. After that I fought with the copy machine for a couple of hours. Come to find out both ink cartridges that I got from Sam's Club were dried out or bad.

Have a Blessed evening!
