Paine, that is a sweet story about AL! It is sad that his marriage ended. Interesting that you bring him up b/c DH just told me about watching this video he did: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsET...Schwarzenegger

Hi all!

Just checking in. No workout yesterday. Today is usually my yoga + Gold classes at the gym, but I'm still not 100% with my cold so I decided to stay home and just putter around the house (although I did get out for a haircut). I plan to do my shift at the food bank tomorrow, and by Friday I expect to be well enough for yoga class (weather permitting -- we're going to get yet another one of those atmospheric river rainstorms!).

Paine: Fun story about Arnold!

Cyana: You work too hard! I am almost six months into retirement now, and while I did like my library job a lot I do not regret leaving when I did.

Linda: Hope Meow Meow is continuing to improve.

Waving to all!

Sandra - Meow Meow seems to be as normal as she gets. I guessed she weighed 10 or 12 pounds but she is only 7 pounds. Me thinks my arm needs as much strengthening as my wrist.

Paine - the Scoop Lateral Trainer will be unboxed tonite after my honey arrives. I'd do it but my shoulder is messed up from sleeping on the floor with MM. Cool meeting Arnold and Maria. I lost respect for him as a man but I still use his book workouts.

Cyana, I agree with Sandra that you work too hard! I will feel relief for you when you retire.

I'm waving to everyone!

Funny, my co-worker and I were talking about retirement today. I think I mentioned before that she is exactly 2 years (and 2 days!) older than me, so she gives me all the info. She started with the state differently than I did, so she isn't able to retire without penalty until she is 62 - but I could go out next month when I turn 55! Right now 60 is probably my ballpark, which means she and I would leave at the same time. But some days I think I won't last that long LOL!

cyana · 03-10-23, 08:41 AM

TGIF!!!

I swear, this work week has been at least 20 days long!!!

I have about 3 days worth of work to do today, so I must turn and burn. Will pop in to catch up over the week-end.

toaster · 03-10-23, 08:44 AM

cyana, agree with others - you need a break and hope you get it!!!

It's been a long couple of weeks leading up to spring break, but now it's here, hooray! I'm at work today, but no clients scheduled; I just teach yoga at 12:30 and then I'm going home at 2. I'm off Monday (& Friday) next week - woo-hoo!!!

Pat58 · 03-10-23, 11:15 AM

Good morning!

TGIF! Yesterday I forced myself to go to the gym after work. In all:

~ Kassandra's 10 Minute Morning Yoga for Hips
~ LWR Posture Challenge Day 2 - 10 Minute Stretch Routine
~ GYM for 20 arc trainer, chest press, biceps, leg press, seated rows, triceps, adductors; 4,934 steps

The Kassandra was a nice 10 minute out of bed pick me up. I added this one to my rehab routine.

Speaking of Kassandra, her recent email hinted at a big announcement coming. Only app subscribers can read it on her vlog right now, but she'll be emailing about it soon.

Cyana - sending hugs. You do work too hard.

JustSandra · 03-10-23, 02:05 PM

Hi all!

No workout yesterday as I did my food closet shift. Luckily the rainstorm didn't start until we were almost done!

Today's Workout: Yoga at my gym.

My cold is almost finished -- am looking forward to getting back on track fitness-wise next week.

Linda: So happy Meow Meow is doing better!

Waving to all!
