Carolyn i have a foot/ ankle issue on one side so use a sleeve for walking. it got worse this weekend after xc skiing. Glad it will probably help. it reduces swelling if you have any and is a good reminder of what not to do with the sore part. planned on riding this morning but its...

Still not sick. i think i missed this one!. DH is still barking like a sea lion! feels ok now though. His eye procedure is monday so I was hoping he would be completely over this and that I didnt get it. Carolyn do you have a compression sleeve to put on the wrist for support? we...

yesterday I did 15 on the spin bike and 25 on treadmill walking uphill. therapy. I am apparently super human!. i do not have the virus. i am not relaxing my vigilance but it is amazing. the 12 hr drive should have made it certain Id get it but so far, so good. sorry you are getting...

I did stacked upper body and therapy work today with a 10 min warm up on the spin bike. still feeling ok.

we drove back yesterday. DH got sick monday night after we had neighbors for dinner. I hope he didnt give it to them but maybe he's not that contagious. its saturday and I am still ok and have spent many many hours with him in the car. thursday we went into the park and ended up xc...

well it finally snowed but now our concern is getting out of our driveway. i don't think its enough to be an issue but we will see in the morning. we parked our car on the road so its a hike to get to it. Cathy we knew this neighbor and he that lost his wife not long ago. we knew her too and...

We did the drive sunday in normal time. no weather or traffic issues. all is workig fine here. neither of us felt like getting up and going monday so we did a leisurely drive around the lake nearby and contacted our neighbors and had them drop by for dinner. lots of things changed a...

just therapy for 2 days. going to montana tomorrow. probably for a week. still no serious snow so we hope we can walk a little but will decide whats possible when we get there. the park probably has a little more snow but they have not had enough to groom all season. with all the...

I didnt formally exercise today but it was a busy one. the deck people were back and did most of the part of the project that had to be done in dry warmish weather. they will be back tomorrow. DH has been having a back/neck problem for a few weeks and decided to order a new mattress...

Cathy that is right about the olympics. DH is pretty good at this and by the time we get it figured out it will be over. we did get the mens short program figure skating. a little bit of the xc skiing which is not all that great to watch. the Norwegian guy runs away from the field and...

I ended up just walking our yard yesterday, up and down hill for 35 minutes. its a decent workout. also therapy x2. we will probably ride today after it warms a little. too close to freezing now. i am finding myself getting burned out on a lot of things all at once. I re blocked my...

It wasnt that long ago when we were driving to MT and got a bad set of directions. I was looking at mileages to give some friends directions to get to our house, and up popped directions to get off the interstate and take "Trail creek road" as a shorter route. not open in winter. the...

omg Cathy, they are so similar! DH and I grew up with maps but i do pretty well with phone apps now. road cues in "developed' are not always exactly right and side roads? those little apps may not even have that road visible without zooming way up and then you cant see if they go where...

Hugs to you Carolyn. hoping you have good family support during this very difficult time. yesterday we did a park walk that started out rough because of a wreck that happened a short time before, closing the only road. its on an island so there are not many alternatives. DH acts as if we...

I am so sorry Carolyn. I hope he is at peace.

well cathy I'll honor your wishes and tell you its sunny and supposed to be in the mid 60's today. this is so completely out of season its actually upsetting.! we did the ride and then the hike and today DH and I are tired and we will do home things. we even hooked up the garden...

We did a harder hike today. 2 hours and 5 minutes. a lot of elevation gain and loss on this one. 3-4 miles we think. i keep trying to remember to check elevation at beginning and end but there is so much up and down that would still not be too helpful. its so spring like. all kinds...

My favorite lettuce is romaine. I buy baby romaine heads and wash them thoroughly but i know its usually the lettuce that's a problem. best I can do is grow my own in season. I would never ever buy something like butternut squash that grows on the ground and is cut into little squares...
