TGIF Watulans! manleym - You might think twice about Leslie Sansone. I've read of a few VFers that find her workouts to aggravate hip flexor issues. Leslie was my go-to for low impact for decades, now my favorite is (Team) Body Project. Love Daniel! He is chatty, but very down to earth. bee - There are some YouTube videos of folks who have done the Camino de Santiago. https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=Cam...deos&ia=videos All during the pandemic, we have been binge-watching many of the YT hiking channels. Some of the hikes are amazing. And, some of the hikers are real characters. Workouts: Wednesday was TBP Cardio Starter 4 and Thursday was 10 Days to a Better Body lower body. Things are stressful here with Covid numbers rising rapidly even among the fully vaccinated. Our nearest city has the lowest vaccination rate in the county. This Twilight Zone episode seems never-ending! Waves to all!

My daughter was casted Monday. Ten days then a new cast once the swelling subsides. Hoping after week 3 or so, she can start to bear weight. It will make so many things so much easier. 6-8 weeks until healed. Thanks for suggesting the home health options. We got dropped like a hot potato once I was able to transfer into the car to get to my appointments. So that’s not an option. Our insurance would never cover it. Your empathy and kindness mean so much as my family faces so many challenges. |

Hello Fierce Watulans!
Chele, what a shame insurance won't cover some home visits! You put it so well when you said that Kate handles so much with such grace, but I argue that you do, too. I guess you're not really feeling that these days. Sending you love and hugs. Kate, you are rockin' it! Funny about work and the job security -- that's a good thing! I was wondering how in the world you were fitting in the yoga. I wonder if you could explain your circumstances to them and they'd allow you to finish in a later round of classes? Seems like it's worth a try. Baby, ah! I remember a while back you posted about youtube hiking videos and I meant to check them out and never did, but now for sure I will! I talked to one of my walking buddies about the idea this morning and now she's all fired up about it, too. Which brings me to my workouts...... nothing but walking yesterday and today though tonight I'm going to dance off some calories at an outdoor concert. Do any of you know the Joe Sharino band? Well for years and years he did an outdoor concert in our "neighborhood" (think rural community center). A couple of years ago his daughter, Alison, took it over. Last year they skipped of course. This year they gave away tickets -- they're so happy to be back playing. Hopefully they will set up a tip jar or something (that thought just occurred to me). At any rate, we've never actually gone but our friends went two years ago and said it was so much fun and fantastic dance music. My husband is not much into dancing so we'll see how this goes. We are taking a picnic meal to eat with them ahead of time. It should be a fun evening but I am honestly worried about how crowded it will be and that stupid delta variant. We will be masked for the crowd and will leave if it feels too packed. Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend. I think I saw that another heat dome is coming that seems like it's basically going to put most of the country into extreme heat. Stay safe, Watulans.

Sending big hugs to you ChelePA. I am so sorry to hear about Grace’s ankle. When it rains, it pours. You have such a tight knit family. I hope you can all be strong for each other and come out the other side of this better than ever.
I did a fifty cent VHS tape today, Richard Simmons Sweat and Tone. It was 42 minutes of band work and it was not too easy! I have been slacking on my workouts lately, but wow, I didn’t think it would be as challenging as it was. We went to my husband’s second cousin’s graduation party today. It was nice to see family that we don’t get to see and my husband had a great time catching up with childhood friends from his old neighborhood. It was a great day to be outside too. Hope everyone has a good weekend.

ChelePA I echo what bee and kim said. You and your family are also handling things with grace.
Both you and Kate are showing us the bravest kind of fierce there is. bee enjoy your concert. It sounds like a wonderful evening. horusosiris ohh how I love Lauren's shut up and train so far!! She packs a mighty punch in each workout. manley 27 years of teaching?? Wowee woman..what a trooper!! Hey woman.... are you foam rolling and doing mobility for that hip and quad etc etc (me tapping my foot with arms crossed) cataddict, and kittybug, (and maybe Kim) you three seem to have various things going on and I hope you find some ways to destress. Yesterday was Shut up and train #2. Today was Taebo live and later will be yoga of some kind, lol. Hugs and peaceful Sunday wishes to Baby Watulan, and lavna!
