Hi Pratima! Hi all!
I'm sorry your trip was rough but glad you got to see your family! Poor DH! Oh, that makes me cringe.
My kids start school on August 11th. We are planning for in-person, unless a big bad change happens in the meantime. Fingers crossed that they can go to school normally all year! I am looking forward to some predictable non-kid time.
I preordered the latest Cathe set, which uses bands and loops. I think she's now expecting it to go out in late August. I hope my knees will let me use it! Sometimes new equipment can feel fun and motivating.
I've been trying to do my "kneehab" exercises but have not kept up with it daily. I'm hopeful that the change from the kids going to school will help me make some good habits, including daily exercise! I've been using Cathe's Pyramid workouts lately, do just "Pyramid Down" premixes.
I've been watching a decluttering and organizing show called "Hot Mess House" and I am feeling really inspired to declutter our whole house. DD and I have been going through her room, one section at a time. She has a story about every tiny toy and why she wants it or not. I keep encouraging her to just go fast and get it over with, but it's hard. I like to keep lots of stuff, too, so I understand. I hope she'll learn to appreciate an uncluttered space and keep it up forever.
How cool that you got to meet up with a VFer! You are great at that
It's so nice to check in together! I hope all is well for everyone.
