Let's Post our Daily Exercise

lol.....too funny cheryl....assume it to be a compliment until proven otherwise. 

Thank you everyone for the thoughts of modifying the volunteer work, and truly good advice in many situations, but not possible at this site. I do have options on choosing "when" I'm available, and somewhat flexible in what the assignment entails, (for example, this is a 3 week term in a town about 20 minutes away from where I live), but I am in disaster management with the Canadian Red Cross, and setting my own hours isn't optional in this current situation. I am missing one morning to make it to the PS appt. that was cancelled last week. I think I'll be a bit "better balanced" the next 2 weeks.

I did 3 miles of walking today, plus stairs since building elevator is out.  It's howling wind out there.  Move is next weekend.  Got most of the errands done and had a fab lunch. (REAL onion soup gratinee....delish.)

I came home to about 6 hours of work....ready for BED.

I love the picture of the 88 year old gymnast.  Note those fab legs.

One of my favorite stories was the lady who was the model for Miss Moneypenny in the James Bond series.  She and her husband were mugged a number of years ago on their way back from the theatre.  She sent the muggers packing.  She was something like 81 at the time, but still had it when it counted.

Quite a week ahead for me.  Next week at this time, I will be in my new place, new bedcovers.....and new life adventure.

Ready for under covers now. - Claire

Winter storm warning for today so took the day off work as not safe to drive.  Happily, that did not preclude me from walking around town.  Bundled up and took some leftover pot roast to a friend, then to the market for a few items, most notably coffee.  Can't run short on a day off!  As long as I'm dressed for it, I love walking in the snow.  So pretty and so quiet!  ♥

LOL at the 'black ice dance'.  Even when you don't fall you can still really wrench something out of wack.

Yep, another winter storm, supposed to get 7" before all is said and done.  I don't mind driving through snow but I'll stay home when the wind whips up and you can't see squat and it's blowing & drifting all over the road.  Not to mention idiot drivers incl guys in SUV's who think they're immune from the laws of physics.

30 days, 3 hours, 52 min, 19 sec until Spring.  http://mycountdown.org/Other/Spring/

Migraine Day 3. Not moving more than necessary. Thankful I don't get them very often!

But saw this and had to share with The Voices:

Walked the dogs, then went and did full body strength training and stretching at the gym.

Body balance this morning and afternoon and tonight, freestyle step.

We got maybe 5" so not as much as predicted but still got in a round of Shovel & Sculpt. 'night!

Walked the dog through the fresh snow and  then did some shovel and sculpt. I noticed you use different muscles walking in the snow so my legs got a different kind of workout. 

Badger it's pretty bad when someone from Alberta comments on the volume of our snow storms!

I got out and did a 5k run (in the SUN no less).  This after FINALLY getting my clothes to the cleaners.  Plus some food shopping. 

A friend of mine got boxes for my move, and I have decided to spend Friday afternoon packing up the easy stuff to get a jump on Saturday.  This includes my dry cleaning that will be done by then.

Drinking some post b'day champagne.  We couldn't open the bottle, and I took it home.  Yep, Channel Lock pliers work every time!  A Loire Valley bubbly and reminds me of Sparkling Vouvray which I adore.

I have to remember that feeding my friends post move is TONS cheaper than paying movers!  Plus more of an adventure. - Claire

Dulci - hope you are feeling better!

I got enough liquid awesome done today for both of us - so kick back and rest up a bit. You've probably been over-doing it.

Reporting in:  80 minutes:  7 miles EFT - 2 miles treadmill at 10.5 incline and then at 4.5 incline

Cool beans Cheryl, you areas fit as Jack LaLanne and his dog Happy, who I grew up watching both as a  kid.  NatsFan/Mary, I would mourn the loss for sometime of a magnolia tree, much more precious than our now sideways crabapple. I sent photos to a tree feller and he emailed back a quote of £480+vat -ugh. Putting feelers out, and one guy who was to come over today for a look & quote cancelled. Trees and lines are still down in my aera. Odie said:favorite Yoga pose is corpse pose, LOL, good one and I'm still working on 3 legged dog to wheel.  That left mx shoulder is not cooperating.  I'll get it one of these days.  Good for you Ruth on sticking with Yoga and I want to go to a weekend yoga retreat and it's doable sometime in my future. Took our boy this morning for his first contacts fitting.  He is so happy as he has wanted to try them for sometime and now old enough (15). He deserves it - tired of hearing 4 eyes (you know how kids are) and sports will be easier for him too.

Ran a 5.87k this afternoon

Bounce, 'liquid awesome' is sweat!

Core & pilates this morning.

I have been eating everything in sight too since my vacation, so have to knock it off (after the banquet I'm going to tonight, or after breakfast with the girls tomorrow, or........sigh.....you all know the drill!)

Ran one continuous mile (I'm afraid I'll continue to word it that way until I'm convinced that I can keep doing it) and walked the dogs one mile with DH. Worked up some liquid awesome.
