Let's Get Moving Part 3

Jump to solution

'The original idea was to "get moving" at least 4 times a week, staying accountable to each other.  Post your accomplishments in the comments. This is the original blog link if you would like to clarify the guidelines

Let's Get Moving Challenge - EX Community.   Any activity counts, as long as you get off your butt and get your heart pumping.  Who knows, maybe we'll lose a little weight or a couple of inches in the meantime.  I hope placing it in discussions this time will work better than a blog post where there were so many entries and becomes harder to locate.  Let's see if we can keep it on the board often and easy to find. 

I believe we got sidetracked when I suggested doing other challenges and those challenges were not conducive to everyone. My fault. Lesson learned.  So I am hoping we can get back to doing what "you" do instead of a specific routine.  Got it?.   In the previous post, there were a lot of comments to go through to come up with this list of who participated.  Hopefully, it will catch on again.  Of course, sometimes we got off topic which can happen.  This post really kept me motivated and we had a lot of fun while learning a lot from each other with over 2519 comments on the first blog and 1072 Let's Get Moving 2018 - EX Community  on second blog comments. So let's Get Moving Part 3!

Good morning . Over doing it , up early , sleepless night , price I pay for overdoing . A busy week ahead , too much I think on my plate . But .. kinesiology today , so do hope this will be beneficial to my health , otherwise it’s time I could use to rest and keep my strength lol ( if that makes sense ) . I’m way over my spoon limit these days , referring to the spoon theory lol .  Even just thinking takes them away these days . Overload ! Tomorrow , I have an appointment with a dental specialist , wow that was fast . I saw dentist less than a week ago , again for me all takes a lot of time out of my day because I don’t drive . Who wants to be at dentists or drs , not me . Then we are still dealing with snow , Gosh when will green grass come , such a hard month . It will be until mid May before we see good ol summer . Thanks for listening to my whining lol , all this will pass , I know , make the most of today , I know , don’t worry , be happy , I know , keep moving , got it lol I know . Stay smoke free , lol oh yeah , I don’t smoke or even think of smoking , these things would have in the past . Not anymore , smoking only adds one more thing to gripe about , quitting is the one thing any season of the year that I can say makes me smile and with that , my beautiful grands and kids who don’t have one smoking grandma in the family or grandpas either . I beat addiction ! Have a good day all , but don’t over do !

Good afternoon, all

  Need to catch up on some reading 

  Today I was up and out as I had my Pulmonologist appointment at 7:30. Went well I never take the elevator up to his 3rd floor office as I always use the steps, 

Came back took a small walk and decided to cut, trim and edge grass which I 've just finished up cleaning.  I was lucky as it is a windy day and the was blowing in the right direction so, I had no need of blowing the grass clippings off the sidewalk

Enjoy the afternoon everyone

I don't know when the gardeners will first appear, but for now my grass looks like harvesting might be the best option!  Hope the pulmonologist gave you good news!

I got rid of the tax stress with a nice 45 minute walk in the woods.  Better than any anti-anxiety med - and cheaper!

LOL on the grass.   I've cut mine twice now and probably cut it again on Saturday (Rain all day today)  for Fritz and Louisa to find eggs in the yard on Easter

@YoungAtHeart I don't deal with taxes anymore Joyce took over the first time she saw me doing my own and we were only dating then.  I may have acted some to get her to volunteer to do them for me.  

What a beautiful place to walk and relax.

My pulmonologist visit went well.  For 8 years nothing new has shown on the CT Scan and my lungs sound clear

@Cousin-Itt ~~ Just love it, Carl. how you and Joyce do the annual egg hunts for the grandkids! You will have their love forever-- you spend so much quality time with them so they will always hold you close to their hearts ❤️

@YoungAtHeart ~ I am always amazed at the amount of property you have to care for and am so happy you are able to line up a worker to help with it all. @Giulia ~ Your experience with the golf balls just touches my heart. BTW, I do recall last year when you posted about finding a golf ball in the yard. So happy for you that Rand is leaving you these "love letters." Spring is always a melancholy time for me as my 2nd husband, Pete, passed on April 4th. It will be 10 years next month. We were very close so I still miss him but over time the sharp agony of his loss has morphed into a sort of gentle melancholy that makes life more bearable without him. I pray that time will ease your pain as well. (We were fortunate to have had these beloved men in our lives...) @Maki ~ I am behind in responding to these posts so am just responding to the beginning of your PT sessions on yesterday. Hope any future appointments can be scheduled at easier times for you--- I, like you, am definitely not an early get-out-of-the-house type of person either so hear what you are saying ❤️
