Back from running around in the back yard with chaos
lol who would of thought you could work up a good sweat that way
I think I even wore him out he gave me that "I am done aunt karla" look and went and laid on the patio
today is errand running day
I have got to get a birthday present in the mail oops lol the birthday was sat so guess I am not to late
I am going to go back to look at this one elliptical machine that I think will work
After two days of yard work, today I'm taking it easy. I feel OK - and want to stay this way so a little rest for the old guy! Maybe this evening, I'll get out and walk a little bit.
I tried an elliptical at the last hotel in which we stayed. Given my knee problems, I thought it would be a good idea but it was actually not. Because the machine dictates the position and flexion of the knee, it's a bad fit for me. My wife did seem to like it and it was one of the more frequently used machines in the fitness room. I'm an old fashioned guy. Give me a pair of sneakers, the pavement and some music and I'm ready to roll.
Hoping everyone has some productive exercise today ...
Good morning Karla and all my exercise friends! I've missed you! We've been busy trying to sell this house of ours and although I wanted to wait until we were sure about things I figured I could use some positive thoughts and prayers from everyone here during this process. We are under contract as of this past friday. Yeah!! Now the fun begins with inspections and hoping that the buyers mortgage goes through. Needless to say, the tension is a tad bit high around here. A tentative closing date of August 5th but you know how that goes. I hope everyone is doing well here and I will keep everyone posted. Have a great day!
Wow Jeannine, that is a quick close. Now, remember to breathe. The inspector is not your enemy.
Shadow & I walked the neighborhood this morning.
After I am done absorbing caffeine I will be heading out to have a pre-trip inspection on my car. My husband & I are heading to Indiana later this week to look at houses. He is going to "help" me pick a house. *shaking head* He is also going to help me pack, load, and move. If the house I end up picking needs any major work done he will do that. Then he is coming back here to live. *still shaking head*
Well, Karla....I just got back from Curves....late exercise start today, thanks to the start of my 4 a.m. work day, as in "earning money" work. Good news.....I got weighed/measured: Body Fat % went down again, all measurements went down at least 1/4 inch, weight down 3 lbs. and I only weigh/measure once/month. Weight I don't care about.....Body Fat % is important to me! I'm pumped, and ready for 4 more visits to the circuit this week!
Uncle Sam Cereal and lots of fresh fruit and veggies helped the cause this month...plus 8 big glasses of water a day.

woo hooo those are some good losses
I agree with the weight thing I because of the weight lifting I did years ago I have a lot of muscle so I weigh much more than I look
shocks the Dr and gym folks when I would get on the scale
which brings up another pet peeve of mine lol if you go to the Dr and it is a week since you were there why do they make you get on the scale again !!!!
I think it is one of their "lets just work her nerves even more" ways
btw what is Uncle Sam cereal ?
