Oh no, I'm sorry to hear about your dad. It would be nice if he could be close to you, and it sounds like he is happy. How is Dan doing? Hopefully the injection is working and he isn't in any pain. Some people find that working out 2 or 3 times per week is sufficient for them. We are just...

I worked last night so I'll probably just walk today. If I get some energy, I might lift weights. I've done 3 weight workouts and walked twice this week. Feeling pretty good about that. My new work assignment is going pretty well. Not as stressful as I was expecting. That's good. My son...

My workouts have been pretty good. Tuesday was a full body circuit, Wed was Meso 2 disc 15 (CST), Thursday I walked around the lakes. Friday I had a hair appt, yesterday was lower body and today was disc 17 (B&B) and another walk around the lakes. I'm trying to do a few ab exercises everytime...

The weekend is almost over, where did all the time go? We had groceries delivered yesterday. I'm really liking having our groceries delivered. I may need to go myself next week to replenish our freezer with meat and we need more vegetables. These are things I like to pick myself. For...

I just finished STS! I've had great results but am ready to move on to other workouts. We are just staying home this weekend with this crazy storm. We are only expecting 2" to 5" of snow, nothing what the east is expecting. Stay safe and warm. ttyl

I think going on medicare is considered a qualifying event. This usually means you can remove him from your insurance so you are not double paying. It may be worthwhile talking to your benefits folks. Perhaps the savings from carrying him on your insurance will offset the premium cost for his...

I really enjoy my workouts, but working is getting old. I feel you on that front. I actually bought myself a heated blanket to use when I'm watching tv in my recliner. Have you considered getting one of those? Also, with Dan being under the weather/injured you might want to splurge on having...

I did disc 34, Chest & Back this morning. Feeling pretty accomplished. 85# for bench press, incline bench press, underhand rows and deadlifts 38# for bench fly, incline fly 40# for both single arm row variations. After lunch I went for a 3 mile walk. We started ordering our groceries online...

I had a dr. appt Tuesday and Dentist on Thursday. These appointments interfere with my workouts. I did workout Monday and Friday and walked on Wednesday. Yesterday was STS D33, Shoulders/bi's/tris. Tomorrow will be disc 34 C&B. Honestly, the chest and back workout is a struggle to get...

Well I was feeling pretty horrible so I didn't workout yesterday. Today I did heavy legs, and I can tell. My legs are already sore and will probably be much worse tomorrow. Tomorrow is back to STS, hope to finish that up this week. Tomorrow is back to work for me. I've enjoyed my almost 2...

I'm glad you had this time with Aaron. Traveling during the holidays is always challenging. I remember going to Disneyland when we lived in CA. My Dad's company picnics etc were at Disney. It's nice and quiet here and I'm really enjoying it. We don't do anything special for NYE. We just...

I am enjoying my time off. I haven't logged into work or even my work cell phone. It is so nice. I'm probably not being as productive as I should be. My workouts have been pretty consistent. There are 4 discs left for me to finish this mesocycle. Since I do them twice through, it's 8...

No more snow here. It's been dry, windy and in the 60's. They are actually doing power outages due to the winds. Thankfully where I live our power lines are buried. I hear ya on the medical front. I'm still trying to get an appt with an ENT for my chronic ear pressure and stuffy nose...

Wow, I didn't know you were going for Christmas. That sounds wonderful! I'm not familiar with those games but will check them out. The girls like to play a lot games. I'm so glad to hear you can talk to your cousin. Interesting that her relationship with her mom is similar to yours. Glad...

I'm home and back at work. I flew home on Tuesday. It was nice visiting with Zach. We went to the International Spy Museum. It was pretty amazing. I highly recommend visiting if you are ever in DC. He took me to the monument and the White House. It was very cold and the traffic is...

I didn't work out much this past week. Just busy at work. I did STS on M, Walk 3 miles on Tuesday, then nothing util Saturday. I did leg/cardio-I mean the cardio was weighted step ups. Then I walked 3 miles. Today was STS D22, CSB for the second time. I just need to do D24 for the second...

I didn't realize it had been so long since I checked in. Our family is under a lot of stress right now and I think it is making my stomach issues worse. I've even contacted a therapist to help me with this stress. Some days are better than others. One of the medications I'm on, the one I...

I've been thinking about you all week. Glad to hear that your Dad is home now. That must be a relief. Hopefully the additonal dose of meds will get you feeling better. Sorry to hear about DS2. I'm sure he will find another job. Did he get any kind of severance? A few weeks of pay can...

I ended up not feeling well on Saturday, so I lazed around the house. Sunday I did a STS 2.0 full body trisets. I figure starting back with a full body workout be good. Today I did a full body circuit with some cardio/weights. Tomorrow I will start back with STS. How are you doing? How was...

Another work week is behind me! Neither DH or I slept very well last night. I got up and watched tv in the living room for about an hour and a half. When I went back to bed, DH was reading. The Dr. found some inflamation and took a biopsy. It wasn't where I feel the pain though. I did...
