CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! He's beautiful!!!!

So far, our new LG washer is wonderful! What a pleasure. I'm patiently waiting for the next GE appliance to kick the bucket.

Workouts:
Wednesday
Pushups, BE Series 700 Delts, Back, Quads, Glutes, Abs
Yoga with Kassandra 10 min. Yoga for Hips stretch

Thursday
Had a terrible night's sleep, got up at 4 a.m. so just did a 7 mile bike ride

Donna - read CabCalloway's post about LG refrigerators. Her info is good - refrigerators and washers/dryers are totally different animals so I'm thinking their compressor technology may be the problem.

Pat - don't be scared about the GE appliances. We haven't had any problems with our oven/stove top and have had it for 6 years. I don't care for the design, or lack thereof, as the heating elements are not well designed in size. We stupidly got an electric stove and I should have gotten a gas stove. Next one will be gas and we'll have a gas line put in. I was worried about the cats walking on the counters and accidentally turning one of the burners on. Seamus is such a beautiful name - is this your first grandchild?

Summer Breeze - I haven't had a pedicure in such a long time - now that's going to be on my mind! Hope it was relaxing!!!

That's it for me - hope everyone has a great day - it's FRI-YAY!!!!

Good morning and TGIF! Yesterday's accomplishments:

~ Ellen's Upper Body Blast download
~ Evening walk around neighborhood
~ Kassandra 10 Minute Yoga in Bed plus chakra affirmations meditation
~ 6,500 steps for the day

I saw a wild turkey meandering around in my neighborhood on my walk. For some reason my town has a lot of roaming first year turkeys this year.

Thank you all for the congratulations! We're all over the moon.

Summer Breeze, I hope your new sneakers work out and your sore back feels better soon.

Donna, that subscription sounds reasonable. Good to hear you got out for a walk with your husband and Golden.

Diane, thank you for the appliance feedback. Did you see any interesting sights on your crack of dawn bike ride?

Enjoy your day!

Hi all !!

Yesterday was:

48 minute outdoor walk

I am planning/hoping for another walk today. I'm supposed to meet my friend for lunch today too. I ordered the wrong sneakers. I had meant to order a pair of New Balance foam cushion sneakers. But Altra brand popped up and they looked similar so I ordered those. They were comfortable and felt supportive so I'll keep them. I am partial to foam cushioning though.

PAT, aww congratulations on the beautiful baby boy! Nice job with your workouts too. Sometimes I see turkeys around town but not so far this year.

DONNA, another nice subscription for you. Very reasonable too.

DIANE, wow great job on the early bike ride after a poor night's sleep. Impressive. Actually the pedicure didn't work out. DD couldn't make it and I really wasn't in the mood for going by myself. Maybe another time. I did have a pedicure a couple of months back and it was delightful.

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Hi Everyone,

This morning was:

Lively Ladies - Improve Strength at Home
Lively Ladies - Relaxing Cool Down and Stretch

The strength workout was more challenging than it would appear just from watching it - I'm finding that to be the case w/ many of the LL workouts.

These are hitting the spot for me right now in terms of feeling like I worked out, but I'm not totally wiped out.

Hope everyone has a good day!

Donna

Good morning! Happy Saturday! Yesterday featured:

~ Kassandra 10 Minute Morning Wake Up plus morning affirmations
~ Margaret Richard Good For You segment 3
~ 4,000 steps for the day

I've GOT to get to the gym this week - didn't go at all last week.

Summer Breeze, I hope and your DD get together for some pampering soon. Wild turkeys are so unusual looking, aren't they?

I've got to try one of LL's strength workouts soon. Were you able to find an Irish yoga instructor yet?

Good morning to Diane - hoping you had a better night's sleep.

Waves to anyone who visits!

Hi all !!

I kind of pooped out on the walking the past couple of days. I had a lot of errands on Friday which took way longer than anticipated so I was very late for the lunch with my friend. I had told her I was running late and it turned into an early dinner/happy hour kind of thing. Then yesterday I went to a craft fair with my sister and nieces in a park the next town over. So we did do a lot of walking but more the strolling kind but still it was movement. Hoping to get back to my regular walking routine today. Beautiful day.

PAT, good job with MR. The wild turkeys are definitely unusual looking. When I used to drive DS to school many years ago they used to walk across the street completely oblivious to the cars and traffic. One time I guess one of them got flustered by all the cars and tried to fly into my car. Thank God I had the window rolled up!!

DONNA, nice job with your workouts. I hope you found some downtime this weekend.

Hi DIANE.

Have a wonderful day!

Hi Everyone

This morning I did some CS and Pilates -

CS 1210
Pilates - Quick Full Body Pilates Workout - The Balanced Life (You Tube)

I may walk later -

Robin/The Balanced Life starts a 5 day Pilates challenge tomorrow - I was thinking of doing that plus CS in the morning and then in the afternoon do a walk or other workout. With any luck, work will be quieting down and I can try to get lunch time workouts in.

Summer Breeze - I feel like in general I have been petering out! LOL!

Waves, Pat and Diane and Christina!

Donna
