Love this. quite challenging, but I guess it's all challenging for someone in their first week with the box. Full body love the abdominal work. Where i need it.

Cynthia's wearing the red dress! Yay! Good to see you. That is one lucky man to get gingerbread pancakes.

Cheryl, how's your dh today?

Hi Diana and Cheryl2.

I've been up since 5 a.m. Stress I think. I had my 6 month checkup at the doctor this morning but that's no big deal. The man will arrive later for my birthday tomorrow. He thinks birthdays are a big deal. Yesterday was the anniversary of my mom's passing so excuse me if I think my birthday stinks. He wants to go out to eat tomorrow which is guaranteed to make me sick from pancreatitis. I'd rather cook and not get sick and not pass out on the bathroom floor from the pain. And the best/worst part is Andy, aka #2, got thru to my phone last night and left 18 voicemails. We haven't seen each other since early October. I was hoping he'd stay gone. Stress!

I did some Barre exercises at the kitchen sink this morning. That's probably all I'll do today unless I jump on the reformer for some leg work. I can't decide between a nap or vacuuming, or calling off the birthday. Whine! Whine! Whine!

It's YOURBirthday. This is one day in the whole year you get to choose to do what YOU want to.. Don't go out to eat to please someone else's agenda for you. Sure it's a nice gesture but if it would make you sick, he doesn't know you. I'd say no thank you for the gesture, that's not how this love works.

do something that will make YOU happy. I made sure I was happy on my birthday by getting lobster and getting a pair of boots, I wanted, and needed..

Have him buy you some streaming videos or another piece of Pilates furniture if he really wants to see you light up.

BE HAPPY. no stress.

Call off the birthday, then get on the reformer and SMILE. that's called taking care of you.

Thanks Cheryl, you made me smile. Right now I'd like to cancel the man and take a nap til Monday. That's my idea of a good birthday.

One of the things I had moved out of the plumber's way was my old rebounder, which looked like fun. So today I did Barre Amped Bounce, 3 chapters and the stretch, 50 min. I'm going to keep the rebounder handy. My knees loved it.

My rebounder is a YogFlex, which amazon sold very cheap on closeout, many years go. My couch, whose back is to open space, not against a wall, served as the barre. I have looked wistfully at the gear Suzanne Bowen uses in this workout, but I don't need it.

This afternoon, teeth cleaning.

Linda, I agree with Cheryl 2, especially about dinner out. Your beau wants to give you a treat, not make you sick!

Hi Everyone!

Linda Can he bring you something that you know you can eat? I think I recall that you like roast beef sandwiches.

Check-In: 3 Miles w/Lesie (I had a lot going on today and felt overwhelmed. This workout felt like a Blessing today, nothing to think about or figure out, just a good workout. I took it up (jogging) where I could. )

Have a Blessed evening!
