Hi all. What a long day. His operation started at 7:30 a.m. and he didn't get out until 3 p.m. Everything went well but he is in a lot of pain, although they are giving him pain drips. It was so hard to see him last night, I didn't get to see him until 7 p.m. But he was talking to me and seemed very alert. He texted me this morning and said he was ok just tired and he couldn't text. So that made me feel very relieved. I have been so stressed over this. I feel so helpless. My mom and I will try to go up and see him if he wants us to tomorrow or Thursday.

No workout today, just not feeling right. I'm dizzy and my BP is up and my HR is up. I figured working out wouldn't benefit me any right now.

Thanks for the prayers everyone!! It works. Now I pray he recovers quickly.

Debbie, I am so relieved to hear that your brother is doing well! Give yourself this time to regroup and to spend time with family, you deserve it.

Today I had an excellent workout. I did Caroline Girvan's Beastmode workout #2, Intense Upper Body workout, Shoulders and Arms and I am spent! This workout is each exercise is 2 sets of each exercise, 40 seconds on and 20 seconds' rest. No need for heavy weights for this workout, I was dead by the last set. I like how short these workouts are, but they do not lack at all, these will be perfect for workouts in the house this summer.

Belinda, great job with the walk and relaxing yoga yesterday.

Roselyn, way to go on the leg workout, I dread those so much.

Make it a great day.

Hi,

Today I did 2 hours of dancing and JS TB Circuit 6.

Sadie had a vet appointment for her vaccines. Next month she is getting a teeth cleaning, yorkies are known for tartar on their teeth.

Debbie - glad your brothers surgery went well. My son’s mother in law had open heart surgery last week, she was in a lot of pain the next day. She is doing well and is home .Take all the time you need to destress.

Jolie - great job with Beast mode. Love her workouts.

Roselyn - great job on your workout.

Good night.

It has been a few days since I worked out. Saturday our son came over to help clean our dryer vent that runs out the roof. Then we all went out to eat. Sunday I was not feeling well and still feeling off Monday. I am having a hard time getting rid of the sore throat, sinus problems, and being so tired. Yesterday I hosted my ladies group game day. Today I got up and did Lift Move Restore Upper Body, along with a warmup from another workout, 56 minutes, 204 calories, heart rate 103/147.

Debbie, praying your brother has a quick recovery. I am glad the surgery went well. Take your time till you can relax again. Those things can sure cause a lot of anxiety and worry.

Jolie, nice job on Carolyn Girvan Beast Mode Workout #2, Intense Upper Body.

Roselyn, good job on drop it back and biceps.

Belinda, nice work on yesterday's dance and JS total body circuit 6 and today's dance and yoga workout.
I have never had to take a dog for teeth cleaning. I thought it was pretty expensive. I am doing okay. I have had this throat problem for 3 weeks now.
 
Hi,

Today I did a live dance class.

Diane - sorry you are not feeling well. Hopefully you get some relief soon. Great job on your upper body. Yorkies are prone for gum disease or worst losing their teeth. Sadie is only 6 years old. Other dogs would chew on bones or dog dental threats. Sadie thinks those are toys, she hides them throughout the house. Silly dog! My neighbor just told me about a dental bone her dog loves, off course I ordered some today. I hope she will actually chew on them instead of hiding them in plane site.

Debbie - thinking about your brother.

Have a great evening.

Thank you all for the well wishes and prayers for my brother. He is still in ICU but it hoping to have a room tomorrow. His numbers aren't where they want them to be. He is having a tough time and told me it was way worse than he could ever imagine. :( I wish he'd let me and my mom come see him, but I also understand why he doesn't want us to. I'm sure he does not feel like talking or entertaining us. Even though we would not expect that.

Today I did RAW Kickboxing #8 and had a good workout. It felt good to move.

Have a great evening everyone!!

Today I did CDorner Disco Step Aerobics stopping about 16 minutes in because it was lots of move changes and Harvey was trying to get close to me and I could not work around him, so went to another of her step workouts which was not so fast and complicated, still a pain, but stopped at 31 minutes total time, heart rate 128/149, 191 calories. I then did Booty Lift with a fabric band and dumbbells, 27 minutes, 113 calories, heart rate 106/143. Total time 58 minutes, 304 calories. Harvey really wanted to play today. Usually he goes and sits in his crate unless he knows I am lying on the floor.

Debbie, nice job on getting a workout in today. I hope your brother gets to feeling better soon and you can go see him.

Belinda nice work on the dance class today. Harvey is an aggressive chewer and I am constantly trying to find things that last for a while.

Roselyn, good job on chest/tris dropsets.
 
Hi,

Today I did JS Circuit 1 Week 3.

Debbie - nicely done job on your workout. I hope your brother feels better soon. I know it’s hard not to see him.

Diane - nicely done with Disco Step Aerobics and boot lift with the band/dumbells. That is good Harvey is an aggressive chewer. Wished Sadie would actually chew on those things.

Roselyn - nice job on your chest/triceps dropsets.

Jolie - are your flooring in? I know you have a lot of work still ahead of you putting everything back together.

Have a great evening.
 
Ok here it is on the flooring. It took 3 days, and it looks amazing, but they did not level the floor in some spots, and it dips down when you walk on it. Not good from what I read, it will break eventually. I spoke to the company yesterday and they said it was normal but what i have seen on forums, the leveling was not done correctly. The owner is going to be a problem but some of it needs to be taken up and the problem fixed. The good news, I only have paid them half for the job thus far, so I have the upper hand on the negotiations. I just want it to be done correctly; it costs a fortune. Next, I found a slow water leak in an upstairs bathroom, and it has rotted the entire floor, now I need a total bathroom remodel!!!!!!! This is going to be a doozy of a summer at my house. In the end it will look amazing but the process is going to kill me! I hate a dirty house.

Wed- 3.6 mile walk
Thursday- Caroline Girvin Chest and Back
Friday- 2.8 mile walk
Saturday- Cathe's Pyramid Upper Body.

Everyone is doing great with their workouts despite what life is throwing at each one of use at the moment. Let's rally around each other and really get each of us through these trying times in our lives.

Debbie, prayers for your brother and I hope you get to visit with him soon.

Belinda, great job on the workouts this past week, killing it! I have to get my dogs teeth done soon; he is starting to get tarter on the back teeth.

Diane Sue, I hope you are feeling better. I have had allergies for the past 3 months, it is so bad this year. Cloud Seeding I suppose, all those chemicals in the air. Yours is not allergies so I hope you kick this issue quickly.

Roselyn, I like Caroline Girvin's workouts too!

Have a great Saturday.

Today I did Pyramid Pump warm up, back and biceps and the stretch 30 minutes, 132 calories, heart rate 108/132.

Jolie, I am sure that you will love the new floor. I am pretty sure they are supposed to level the floor first. Nice job on the walks, Pyramid Upper, and Caroline Girvin Chest and Back. I have allergies on top f everything else.

Belinda, nice work on JS Pilates.
