Hi all, I am stopping in after days away! I wasn't even able to check my email for days as we worked very hard. 4-5 hours of sleep a night, constantly working. One day my tracker hit almost 30,000 steps, and those were with lifting, moving things, running upstars, etc. I also did not have much time (or appetite) to eat (it was hot as well). The good news is I think I finally lost the four pounds I gained, which is almost a size on me. The bad news is we wore ourselves out so much that we all got bad colds. Still recovering.

We are at my sister's house now in MD, wrapping up hopefully everything we need to do before leaving. And we are flying to Portugal Monday! I have my bands, sliders, and yoga mat in one of my suitcases. And I know I will be walking a lot there. I think with the very fresh produce, lots of fish, and better breads (gluten-intolerant people can eat bread there), etc., we will be feeling pretty good healthwise there hopefully. Also DH was able to get some help that seems to be clearing up his psoriasis skin at long last, so he feels he can wear short sleeves again and not be embarrassed by issues. Hopefully it continues to work.

I met Fan of Lady Vols, and she took my box of dvds. She is the first VF-er I've met IRL. She said there were 70 in my box! That was surprising. She is keeping 22 and sending the rest to people who request them. I appreciate her being the ambassador for that.

I will post again later! We are also planning to start a Youtube channel, so I'll let you know when that is up and running, in case you want to see where we are and all.

Cheryl

Cheryl, thanks so much for the update! Flying tomorrow - safe journey. And yes I will be thrilled to follow your youtube channel.

My San Jose choir's virtual concert isn't up yet, but the audio of Battle Hymn of the Republic form the concert is linked in my FB post.

Back later.

Check-in: Brett day 6, and KB swings.

Sending all best wishes and thoughts with Cheryl for this new and exciting chapter in her life!

Did some barre 3 and the ever present stretches 5X a day. Today I was able to grab something from the back seat of the car with my bad arm without pain! Doubt it will spare me from torture session coming next Tuesday!

Safe travels to Cheryl tomorrow.

Lynn, sorry to hear PT is painful. Did you get a diagnosis?

Hi Cynthia and Diana.

I haven't read anything on VF since the last time I was here. I have no idea when that was. My arm/shoulder has been pretty useless since the second Moderna shot on April 30. It's a coincidence that this started after the Moderna injection. I don't believe in coincidences. The doctor says the problem isn't the Moderna shot. He says a cortisone shot up to a year before rotator cuff repair can mess up the repair. Why didn't he tell me that before surgery? He's going to try to fix it this week with another cortisone shot. If that doesn't work I'll be done trying to fix it. I'm done.

For workouts I use the stationary bike or the under desk elliptical along with squats and lunges on my own. I'm too lazy to walk across the room to use a DVD. I usually get hurt with DVDs. At PT they always told me not to strengthen anything that doesn't have full range of motion. If I ever get to half of full range maybe I'll do something.

I didn't mean to sound so cranky. Sorry.

Hi Everyone!

Linda ((hugs))

No workout to report. We had a picnic at church and I helped with that.

Have a Blessed evening!
