Happy Moan Day. More like Groan Day! My toe is still so sore and the blister just won't heal. Might have to call the podiatrist if things don't start looking up. Anyway, my low key Halloween featured:
~ Half mile slow stroll at beach ~ YWK YWK Bedtime Yin Yoga ~ 4,460 steps I forgot to buy candy but it was just as well, only one group came around and we hid. It was discovered that some kook in my neighborhood was handing out dog treats. I mean, it’s not poison or razor blades, and humans can eat dog treats, but sausage and bacon nuggets? Anyway - Cyana, I loved your bird Musical Tree. They are so special. I’m so stuck on the beach grid I’m going to take it down and try something different. Ethan has some beautiful pieces, and I love that bat! I wonder what it is? I enjoy Traditional Medicinals Chamomile Lavender tea when I can’t sleep on winter nights, and occasionally roast a chicken with Penzeys herbes de provence which contains lavender, among other yummy herbs. Beth, I’m happy to hear your massage helped. I had to look up what scalenes are - oh, those pesky rascals. Great week of workouts for you. Paine, I will share that butternut squash recipe. It’s a WW recipe so the link won’t work for non-subscribers. Good morning to all who follow! |

Good morning everyone! Yesterday I accomplished:
~ Ellen's 10 Minute WW Walk ~ YWK 10 Minute Morning Stretch ~ Kathy Smith Peel Off the Pounds Pilates (full DVD) ~ 6,850 steps That is a new Kassandra, it was nice. It features the half split where you sit back on one heel, a favorite of mine. That was also the first time I've done a full length Kathy Smith DVD in - I can't remember how long. It's one of her best productions, IMO. Thank you for the healing toe vibes, everyone. Thank goodness for Oofos flip flops, they let me do most workouts at home. I hope you like the recipe if you try it, Paine. Margot, that Bellyfit class sounds nice. Pam, interesting about Balletone. I seem to recall having one of her DVDs stashed away. What did you think? Cyana, I have my fingers and all toes (except one) crossed that your workload eases up toward end of month. Beth, I still need to do your lunchtime #3 - today seems like a good day for it. Good morning to all who follow! |

Home Improvement (all)
When I was doing Margaret's Home Improvement more frequently, I always wore 2.5 pounds on each ankle for the floor work but today I did it without ankle weights and it was still challenging! How the hell did I always do it with ankle weights? Ticks me off that I've lost strength. Pat, I found all of Kathy's Peel Off the Pounds Pilates on YouTube and it looks good so I bookmarked it. https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...Pounds+Pilates Beth, you will probably laugh at this. I saw that you made a comment about the new Outlander book in the Fall Reading thread. I read the first couple of Outlander books when they first came out many years ago. I liked them but then one day it suddenly dawned on me... The main character is cheating on her husband!! So she is an adulteress! That pi$$ed me off so I quit reading the series. |

Paine, LOL about Outlander! Yes, the present-day husband really does get kind of screwed in that deal. Despite that, I really loved the first 2 books and continued through I think Book 6 (I believe my next book would be Echo in the Bone, which starts with her daughter back in present day). However, the last few felt like slogs to me, way too long and increasingly convoluted. I have thought about going back but I think it's been so long that I would have trouble remembering some of the plotlines.
I just came across this channel that looks good! I was looking up info for scalenes (those pesky neck muscles, as Pat said), and found lots of information on trigger points from this channel, Wizard of Health. This simple move was particularly useful to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpJw...WizardofHealth Jill Miller does something similar with a ball, but I never really "got it" before, and it felt more helpful just doing it with my thumb!
