Diana3271 · 09-30-20, 09:36 AM

What started as a Leslie walk challenge has morphed into a wide variety of workouts and lots of support and encouragement! Join us, if you're looking for a friendly check-in, that's not limited to one type of exercise!

Diana3271 · 10-01-20, 08:53 AM

Good Morning, Everyone!

Last night: Basic stretches
This morning: Oxycise

Have a Blessed day, stay safe and healthy!

Diana, thanks for starting our month!

Back later. No outside walk today, the air is not good.

AQI of 92, which is called moderate, but only just. I've stayed inside (80* inside) with windows closed. No exercise today.

Lynn, I hope your mother is recovering comfortably.

No workout today.

Thanks for all the good wishes and prayers. I wasn't able to get through to the intensive care nurse, but my brother did and mom is not in pain (she has a nerve block) and they took out the chest tube) and she is less confused. They hope to be able to get her out of bed tomorrow, so it seems she is doing better. I talked to my dad, who is at home. He has lost most of his ability to say more than a word or two, so it is hard to know how he is doing, but I tried to reassure him. My brother said he is very sad, but he at least sounded calm to me.

Hi Everyone!

I worked on monthly business stuff today and got a lot done. I am having problems with my cell phone. I'm going to the phone store tomorrow. Unfortunately, I'm probably going to have to get a new phone. I am wanting to put out new edging around my flower beds. DH and I need to get that tomorrow so the lawn guy can install it on Saturday.

Lynn {{hugs}} for you during this difficult time.

Check-In: 45 minute outdoor walk

Have a Blessed evening!

Diana3271 · 10-02-20, 08:34 AM

Good Morning, Everyone! Happy Friday!

Last night: Basic stretches
This morning: Oxycise

Have a Blessed day, stay safe and healthy!

Air is unhealthy now, 2 levels worse than yesterday. Also, heat wave continues. No exercise today.

lynnf · 10-02-20, 06:32 PM

Barre 3 30 minutes

I talked to my mom today and she was somewhat confused, but recognized me and could say a few things. She isn't in pain, and the nurse thought she was doing ok. Later, though, they doctor said she failed a swallow test, so they have to put in a feeding tube.

luvcritters · 10-02-20, 07:25 PM

Lynn, sorry to hear about your mom.

Hi to everyone. I'll be having shoulder surgery this month. Diana can give you details. It's too painful to use the phone or tablet.

seabliss · 10-02-20, 08:02 PM

I am finally online! We got Internet yesterday afternoon. What a relief. I did my first workout in this house this evening: Jessica's Bikini Body Circuit. Basically I'm starting off with some moderate total body strength workouts in order to ramp back up to my previous strength. I also did some walking in the neighborhood. The weather is beautiful and it's pretty cool right now, 40s at night and low 60s during the day, low humidity.

Lynn, I am so sorry to hear about both your mom and dad. Hugs and prayers for you during this time. I'm glad the services were beautiful. I know you must be really sad about your DS. I know I would be!

Hoping this new season will bring some refreshment to you.

Cynthia, so sorry about all the fires. Praying that they can be put out quickly! So glad to hear about little Luna.

Diana, how is your DH? What phone did you decide to get? I need to upgrade some tech things as well. We'll be doing that over the next few months.

My sister told me that the WHO says the potency of the virus is weakening. My brother also said something earlier--this is the way these things go historically. The virus should become more contagious but less dangerous.
