My computer has been weird since Friday and I don't really like coming here on my phone.
It was miraculously fixed today. It may have been a problem with Firefox. I have no clue.
Anyway, hubby and I went to the next state to see our dentist. He had a cleaning, but not me. I went to do some shopping but couldn't find the place the receptionist told me about.
Didn't find what I wanted, but that's OK.
We came home and took a nap. Pretty exciting day .. LOL.

Tuesday-Still recovering from yard work. Back of my thighs always hurt from squatting. Did go up to a higher weight for my pelvic floor exercises. So did those yesterday and today.
Today is the last day of school for kids down here and Friday is the last day for teachers. Josh is working longer on some school committee and his last day is closer to the end of the month.
Hang in there Hiker!
Only shopping I've done TuTu is running to Wal-Mart for graduation cards. I'm to pooped to shop!
Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

hey! I *finally* started into a 'regular' exercise thing. I started giong back to ballet class after many years of not dancing, and its been at least 10-15 yrs of no ballet.
I figured ballet would be best dance to try since its a very beginner class and low impact, etc. it is tough, but I am amanaging.
my brain wants to go faster and harder , but my body is not listening and a couple weeks ago I took a make up class in the harder jazz class and I though I had a heart attack!
so I will try very hard not to push myself like that again!
im also in physical therapy and it is a work out too as it leaves me very tired after.
how did I get this out of shape???!!! ahhahahahaa
I know. but I wish now that I would have done something all along this road from lyme! boy did I learn a lesson! its super hard to get back and i have many physical issues now that I never had because of being stagnant.

LisaK--Welcome. How exciting to get back into dancing. I am still very out of shape. Need to lift weights.
My exercise was dragging the hoses around the yard for a good watering session. Drought here.
I have two more days of school, lp, and then am a free woman.
The kids each handmade a card for me for my retirement. Some I will treasure forever.

Hi all! Just pelvic floor exercises and two loads of laundry. Ran some errands too.
Welcome LisaK! Way to go on the ballet!
Hey there Kayak! Welcome back! I've been trying to socialize more so that's me on FB with one friend from MN and another friend who's separated and recently moved back south. I've missed my normal life so much!
TuTu-I'm envious of your condo! My Mom wants me to have her home but I wouldn't mind something with no yard. The older I get the harder the yard work is!
Hiker-It must feel wonderful to know that you've meant so much to your students and co-workers. I'll be hooping and hollering for you at 10:30 tomorrow!
See everyone tomorrow!

I don't know how you guys keep up with a yard. We haven't had one since 1995. It was the first thing we were happy to be without, especially with how hot it was to mow and water in Texas. HOT!!
When we moved into our motor home, I planted flowers in pots. So that is my "garden." It's plenty to keep up with all the watering even then.
I went to a comedy show this afternoon. It was fun, but not as good as it could have been. Mostly silly stuff, but there was music too.
Getting my haircut tomorrow.... finally. Not much to cut since it's growing out, but it needs to be trimmed.
Hope I can make it to exercise tomorrow also. I missed it on Tuesday due to the tea I attended.

Retired at 10:00 today. Went to library, took a nap.
Wanted to watch TV but local channels didn't work. Spent way too much time on phone with DirectTV.
Set up time for tech guy to come out and now it is working, but it has been spotty the past week.
BFF coming over tonight.
Hot weather is here for awhile--going to be in the 90's this weekend and all next week. UGH!

Got my haircut today .. and also went to exercise. I did 30 min on the machine and 10 laps.
Also went to a new show tonight. It was good .. all but one singer. He was "OK" .. lots of nepotism in that show! You had to be in the family to be on stage .. lol
Tomorrow morning we have a funeral at church. There will be way more people there than we have room for. The gentleman who passed away was well-loved and he and his wife were not retired (he was 60) .. They have a big family and are known all over town.

Just keeping up with my pelvic floor exercises.
Had a plumbing issue yesterday caused by too high water pressure. Local water company came out and tested our pressure and it's too high. So waiting for a plumber to show up around 3-4 today.
We have to pay to have a water pressure regulator installed at the meter.
Retirement is the start of a new adventure for you Hiker!
I've been browsing for small motor homes lately TuTu. Sometimes I think a small motor home might be ok for home base but I'm still not sure.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Slept like a rock last night and slept until almost 8 this morning.
My main exercise has been getting up and watering before work or as in today, before other stuff.
Went to the grocery store.
Drove over to my parents. Just a quick trip for Dad's official birthday and then home again tomorrow.
Ak--As long as your mom needs you, you might as well live there. A condo does sound lovely and it is on my wish list.
