Yay! My hematologist got the bone marrow report: no leukemia. High platelet count will be reduced by Rx, with monthly blood testing to monitor it.

Check-in: outdoor walk. Dr said to wait at least a week or 10 days (from last Friday) to start real exercise.

Feeling dragged down physically. Maybe due to my blood thing. I had planned to go to the Monteey contradance tonight, but I'll pass. Rest day.

Cynthia, sorry you are feeling under the weather, but so glad to hear the doctor's verdict. I hope you get your strength back soon.

Today I did Heather's Brutal Booty and Leg Slimming, which isn't really brutal, just a lot of full-range moves followed by pulses. Bodyweight only and no repeats, which is nice.

Diana, seems like the gym is working out well for you!

Hi Everyone!

Cynthia I hope you feel more energized soon.

Cheryl Yes, I have been enjoying doing the weights at the gym. There's no contract so I can stop at any time. Your vacation is coming up really soon. This year is flying by.

Waving Hi to Lynn.

Check-In: 30 minute walk

Have a Blessed evening!

Barre 3 45 minutes.

Cynthia, so glad to hear the new good news and so glad to hear no cancer!!! Plus relatively easy managing of the platelets. Now the weight of all the concern has been lifted. I'm sure that was quite a drag. Going outdoors is a great thing to do.

Check-in; Leslie's Belly Blasting Walk. I plan to keep it on the easy side for about a week. Today was my first dose of my Rx, which is very strong & has a lot of potential side effects. The one about decreased appetite would be okay, LOL. So far, nothing noticed.

Rehearsing tonight in San Jose. Everyone else in the carpool has a fancier car than my little Ford Fiesta -- Range Rover today, BMW last time; I hardly ever drive us, which is okay all around. I'll bring my knitting.
