LILI
Thank you (too kind) for the 'amazing' - mentally I'm doing "pre-hab" so recovery is hopefully faster. Thanks for the Rocky explanation. CLEDA THANKS for this: (2.15 stones - see -- I tried to make it easier for you..... Bolster - I've seen will often use a rolled blanket or towel as one, BUT will let PAM be the authority there. Wonder what's going on with your energy levels? BTW - you ARE worldly!! Far more than I!!! LILI & CLEDA Oh Brrrr, just 20F = -6C, and 0ºC is literally "freezing point". The layers you'd need to go out would be bulky too, so uncomfortable. Have always wondered what you DO with all those layers when you hit a shopping centre that has central heating? For the heat, I take a fine-knit cardigan to deal with the aircon being cooler than I prefer, but that's so easy. February Thread Notion is SERIOUS - that the joy of 2020 being over should be set aside, and the business of 2021 needs to happen. Hope you like the idea. Hope to see everyone soon - including HappyLadi & Kay? Waves to PAM - I'm absolutely assuming you'll be back for Feb.

Checking in
And now I have to remember what I did yesterday!
Pam: Ohhh again, your check in made me smile when I thought of daffodils peeking through. So nice. I ended up (for now) just getting a pillow from TJ Maxx. It is firm and somewhat rectangular. I will try it and if I indeed keep doing restorative yoga, will order one from Amazon. The price on this one is good for now. We're going to get clobbered with snow no matter how we look at it. I'm thankful dh is home to snowblow. AND I'm not AT work when it all begins. Helen: I forgot to mention - I wear layers. Lots of layers. And for the most part? Stores are not very warm when I go out. I'm never in them very long. And the warehouse ones are definitely cold (Think BJs and Costco). So it's not really an issue. I wear thermal underwear tops and bottoms if it's going to stay lower than freezing. My work is very cold. I wear thermal underwear there also and have 2 portable heaters at the front desk. ONe behind me fro the "front desk area" and one at my side that I can turn on and off when needed. We no longer have anyone wait in the waiting room (pandemic style) so we have the big heater that had been out there. As you can see, I am NOT a fan of cold. Poor circulation. I always have a cardigan within reach. Cuz it's on, it's off, it's on, it's off. Like Lili - in the summer, I have one in the car all the time because places are cold with AC. Lili: Still don't have my February goals in place. I need to come up with something ASAP. (But feel more like I need to go back to bed! ha! Winter drains me and zaps every bit of energy I have.) Waves to any lurkers. On to me, me and all me. I'm chasing badges. Someone listed the badges that are available and of course, I don't have some of them and want to get them in my badge inventory. So naturally? I'm doing the Peloton workouts that will get me some badges. 1/31/2021: 10 mins. 200k Strong total body workout with Olivia**, 30 mins. Sundays With Love - virtue: Excellence 30 mins, 20 Mins. BHM Blues Recovery ride w/ Sam Yo, 10 mins. full body stretch w/Adrian (Because I needed it) ** this workout was to celebrate 200k members on the Peloton FB page. It's old(er). I have no idea on earth how many members they have now? Probably triple that if not more. It was different. 200 reps. Starting out with 50 jumping jacks (that I did on the rebounder). Most of it was done on the rebounder. And that's ok. Sundays With Love: Seems like she just came back to do these (after her holiday break) but we just finished Season 2. Now they go away for awhile. I'll have to redo all of them (I think there's 35 of them) because boy do I enjoy them. This one was tough or I pushed hard or both. I had the resistance up to 88 at one point! Sam's Black History Month recovery ride was delightful. All zone 1, no pushing. Kept the heart rate between 60-69%. No resistance above 45, no cadence above 100 (Mine never went above 95.). Just spun my legs out. And Sam told me to do so. I got badges for Olivia's and Sam's workouts. (and of course! SWL) Now on to new badges for today. Oh and for anyone reading this who might want badges or lurking and wonders here is the link to check: (not all are available any more, but most are). https://www.pelobuddy.com/list-peloton-badges/ Make it a great day. On to February. Waves to all! Cleda |
