Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 5/13

Deb, no matter how I get on the stability ball it makes my arm twist funny so I can't bring the dumbbell up even close to straight. I don't think everyone has the same attachment "angles" from shoulder to elbow to wrist and for me, the ball makes it worse not better.

I think FB is age related. I have friends and family who use it and I read their posts sometimes. It always is so "non-personal" sounding. If I want to say something to someone , I don't want "it" broadcast to everyone I know and plenty more I don't. most posts sound like they could have been written by anyone, to no one in particular, about nothing important. so I think it's mostly a big waste of time. I'd rather read a book too.

yes the subtitles are useful. useful for words that were are used differently then and also the accent. very interesting, liking this one.
 
Hi Deb, Josie, and Valerie--

This morning I did Cardio Supersets (41 min.).

One more meeting this afternoon, but I think it's my last. Still grading, but I should have all of the papers by 5 today.


DH is on Facebook because of his farm business, but he doesn't spend much time on it. It looks like a time-waster to me, and I've heard some stories about thieves who troll, looking for people who will be away for break-ins and some scam on grandparents, where they think their grandchild is calling for money to bail them out and don't want the parents to know they are in trouble of some kind.

Deb, I think Donald must have a devoted fan base, but I also think Derek did most of the dancing in his routines with Maria.

I will check that website Josie when the ride begins, and look for your number.
 
Hi Ladies,

I will be spinning tonight. I did not get to workout yesterday because I had to take my friend home from her Dr. Appt. She is the one with the 2 broken wrists; she is recuperating very well after her surgeries on Tuesday. She is amazing!

Donna Summers died this morning  I wore off a lot of shoes dancing to her music.

I joined FB when I did my first ALC ride because a lot of the announcement is through FB, but I like it because I keep in touch with my nephews and nieces through it. About half of the people on my FB list are restricted and can only see what I want them to see.

Have a great weekend! I will not be posting until Monday. I have a dentist appointment tomorrow and will be shopping for last minute things for my trip and trying to pick my riding outfits ( I want to look fast) ;).

Josie
 
Good morning,

I did CC#3 this morning. I like this one a lot, straight forward, etc. and not too long.

I ended up arranging for Monday off, and also next Thursday & Friday so I get an extra long weekend as well.

I hope we get good weather this weekend, anyone have any plans? We have a play to go to tomorrow, it's the last one of this season.

Will drop by later, take care,
 
wow, yesterday was a marathon starting with the 7 am yoga where she worked us hard. from there on I did stops at the PO, then home to change clothes, then hair appointment. gas up car, costco. different station to fill propane tank. then home to unload. lunch and get DH off to his afternoon shift. then dental appointment, then grocery store. then home, then make dinner. whew. Didn't seem like it would be that hectic a day as I set up the appointments! no more exercise fit in, but that was OK. Did plenty every other day, so the hour of yoga will be enough. the list doesn't look that long now that I've typed it but it was a very full day from 5 am on. I guess if you just had to buy the stuff and not do anything further with it it would be better! putting everything away properly is a time eater.

Weather looks just OK, but we're going on our long weekend anyway. The road over the North Cascades NP just opened last week and now it's much shorter for us to get to the east side of the mountains. It takes crews several months to plow the road and prepare it for safe travel. we will do hiking and mt biking, flowers are always lovely, and some bird watching. usually sunnier and warmer on the east side.
we never ever plan anything for memorial Day. Around here, it's the beginning weekend of summer outdoor activity, camping etc and everything is obnoxiously busy and traffic is horrid. even if the weather turns out awful, as it seems to most years. we usually do some home projects or a local bike ride.
 
Hi Deb, Josie, and Valerie--

This morning I did Athletic Training (56 min.).

Plans for the weekend? Grading this last set of papers and writing a recommendation for one of my students. In-laws over for a cookout on Saturday and Housemax and weeding this weekend. Not. too. exciting.

Valerie, if you are looking for TV series to get on netflix, I would recommend Revenge and Once Upon a Time, which really surprised me at how good it was.

Looks like beautiful weather here for the weekend. Unfortunately, I will be slogging through my papers. Hope some of them are good.
 
thanks... I put them on my queue. did Cardio supersets after getting all my packing and cooking done. have a great weekend everyone...
 
Hi,

Bread in the breadmaker, class this morning, then the play. It looks like it is going to be a beautiful day, it's cool right now but sunny. Going up to 80 supposedly. Love it!

Have a great weekend all.
