Let's Post our Daily Exercise

Forgot to put the baking soda and baking powder in my cookies...realized after I made 2 pans, so added to the last half of the batter. Just ate one of the cookies and can't decide..not too bad, but not as good as always!!

Shabbat dinner is just DH and me...DD is going to dinner at friends for a graduation dinner for one of her girlfriends....its about 1/2 hour walk from our house so she decided to spend the night. I guess I need to get used to cooking for 2....I've done it on occasion so it just needs to become habit.....

Have a good week-end

Karen, I also find it hard to cook for two so I usually have great leftovers to take to work for lunch.

Working my fingers to the bone this week. Had 40 hours in by 10pm Thurs and put in another 20 between Fri & Sat. Was done late this afternoon so napped then walked. Project done for now so tomorrow is a free day but we'll see what Monday brings.

Ruth, great Zumba pic. :-)

Here's a picture from my Lilac Walk today.

Today is fish tank maintenance and a load of laundry

The people in my office are great at disposing of leftover baked goods. ;-)

Looks like a beautiful day so a nice long walk is on tap for this morning. I really need the exercise as been sitting long hours this week. Will feel good to stretch my legs and I have the perfect tape in mind.

Starts out slow with the Paul Winter Consort (Icarus), Stevie Wonder (Summer Soft), and Streisand & Gibb (Guilty); picks it up with more Stevie Wonder (As, and Another Star), Spyro Gyra (Starburst), and Rufus (Once You Get Started); then cools it down with some Blues Brothers (Sweet Home Chicago and the Peter Gunn Theme).

Don't know why I typed all that in, other than I'm still on first cup of coffee and brain's on autopilot.

Have a great rest of the weekend my Sculpted Sisters! ♥

I just lost my post!!!

I'm taking a self- defense course, Krav Maga and I'm so sore on the bc side, prophy side is okay. Today was the second of 4 classes. Need to find some stretches and exercises to do. Even though I average 15K steps/day, I don't so other types of exercises or stretches...Guess I need to start!!!

Gorgeous Denver weather today. Spent the morning outside. There was a community walk for Israel that DD and I went to. My one arm got a little pink from the sun....I don't wear sunscreen as I can't stand the smell or the way it feels on.

I'm so ready for the school year to be over....this week and next!! 7 more days (I only work M-Th). Need to get my act together and plan my summer. DH asked me tonight what the earliest I would be leaving as he needs to schedule his colonoscopy...I told him do it in June..there is no one else to drive him.

Ruth - beautiful picture! I can almost smell the lilacs from here. Patoo - you sound like most of my retired friends - they're the hardest to get together with because they're always so busy!

Spent the weekend clearing out underbrush and spreading bags and bags of mulch at the cabin - all in a cold pouring rain. But if we don't mulch the gardens heavily by mid-May, they get overrun by Japanese stilt grass, a really nasty invasive. DH was down for the count with a cold, so it was all on me. It was a great upper body workout as I am very sore, but it sure looked nice when I was done.

Core workout this morning.

I got in Pilates and gardening today. Looks to be great here a couple more days.

Hi all! I am now at my daughter's for my grandson's graduation. I have grandchildren ages 1 to 18!!! So, Patoo is back doing kitty duty and having to sub for my class next Sunday! She is right, we are very busy being retired! Ha Ha!

Love your lilac picture, Ruth. It is nice to see that the snow does finally melt!

Fun to read about everyone's busy lives and healthy exercise. Congratulation to all you teachers who made it through another year. I remember those days!

Have a great week.

Oh, mysunshine! You don't look like a granny to an 18 year old. Wonderland, it was called Body Worlds here and was partly x-rated (cadavers in the act). Wasn't expecting that but I suppose it was an opportunity to educate DD. Still seemed disrespectful.

8 km hike/run, 6 hours of tango, Body Jam and weights since Saturday. Will go on the treadmill today, salsa tonight and some cycling tomorrow, the last in memory of Diana50.

Ruthbru: I have been going through so many clothes, etc. It feels so amazing to get rid of things. Do you have freecycle in your area? You should look it up. You post what you have to give away and people come and pick it up. I love it,

I am quickly discovering that exercise seems to be my magic bullet. I remember the nurse telling me...if you feel like laying down and taking a nap...exercise. It will be so much better for you.

I am through 4 of 12 of my Taxol/herceptin/perjeta treatments. This week, I actually upped my exercise. When ever I am feeling crappy...I do something. Ride the bike for a hard 45 minutes, take a 3-4 mile hike. I always feel like a new woman when I am done. This week, we hiked at Redwood Regional Wilderness Area in Oakland. I felt like crap at the start of the hike so we picked a shorter one. By the end of the hike, I felt so good we added an extra mile. I so wish other people knew how much it helps.

I hope you are all having a wonderful week.

Wonderland. . .we've had that exhibit here for years. Dh has gone with the kids. Not me, I would be too creeped out.

Ruth beautiful lilacs.

Karen. . .congrats on your daughter's graduation and the job.

I'm still trying to find a groove for daily summer exercise. I have to fill in the non-gym/non-hiking days. This weekend I'll get lots of steps and exercise at our summer amusement /waterpark, but after that I have to hit it.

At the gym feeding the Fitbits.

No walk this evening and I'm missing it....DD and I went to one of her best friend's high school graduation...it was long...just over 2 hours! It is the same school my oldest daughter graduated from 12 years ago. The principal is retiring so I went up to him to say congrats and he goes I know you but don't remember your name. As soon as I said it, he knew who I was. I also talked to one teacher. When I looked at the list of staff, there were only a couple who were there when my older daughter graduated!! We left at 6:30 and didn't home till 9:30....too late to walk outside...maybe I walk around the house!!! Counting the days till summer vacation starts for me!!

Got laundry to do today. Going to get it done and out on the line soon as its going to be very warm today
