Lets Post our Daily Exercise

Worked out again and did a few things around the house.

thanks everyone, yeah I did get mom to her Dr appt…what was supposed to be a three week follow up, was rescheduled to make it a 5 week follow up and then rescheduled again for a 7 week follow up! We are supposed to go back in two weeks, keeping my fingers crossed.

Went to Tai Chi at lunchtime, back to the 70's. TT

Well I did get a pleasant shock when I stepped on my scale. I have lost 3 pounds!

PT yesterday, Yoga today.

DH home today after a week in FL at a conference…said he caught a respiratory infection, uck! He had COVID in late February, I'll have him test when he gets home…hopefully just travel sick, flights coming and going were at 6am which means a 3am wake up…we are getting too old for that kind of work travel!

Happy weekend ahead, lots of Earth Day celebrations here. TT

m0mmy: WTG on losing 3 pounds!

TT: Hope your dh's respiratory infection doesn't get shared with you.

Ruth: Hope the volleyball team wins.

Walked yesterday and today met a friend for our (almost) weekly walk and talk.

Yup, we had snow Friday night into Saturday. The trees looked really pretty. The snow was on the grass and trees but not on the streets. After cold, damp weather in the 30s yesterday it will be 63 today. The next two weeks it will be in the 60s and 70s. Wednesday will be 78!!! DD#2's girl friend from NY years ago said the weather in Denver is bi-polar! 😂

DD#1 and GD are on their way! My DH will pick them up at the airport while I work in the kitchen and start cooking for Passover. GD is now 11 months - the time is going by so quickly.

Well DH got home on Friday early while I was at school…he is still quite sick, I'm sleeping in the family room on the pull out sofa…and so far have avoided getting sick.

DH met me at the grocery store on Friday after my yoga class to buy fish…our usual routine…however he had the devastating news that his older brother had died 2 hrs before. Dh's older brother was on a church sponsored Habitat for Humanity trip, building a house in a rural NC mountain area.  He needed his inhaler (pollen bloom I guess), but someone had moved his backpack…and it couldn’t be found.  He went into distress, they did CPR and he regained consciousness, but was lost at the hospital.

He was “the best one of the bunch”… we are heartbroken.

Keep us in your prayers, our 47 y.o. nephew is making the arrangements for his father, I'm not used to being out of the center of planning things in our family, so just waiting to find out more is another kind of torture.

To a better week ahead. TT

TT: I am sorry about your bil. This is so sad. May your dh improve so he can grieve with you and the family.

Thanks everyone, and Happy Passover Karen - hope you had a wonderful first night seder with DD, GD and SiL.

My DH is still SICK! I'm still on the family room pull out, no fever but a cough from he!!…red face, can't breath cough, ugh.

Ruth on the close or not…We are in (lovely) Williamsburg, VA …brother is in far side of Charlotte NC…approx 5.5 hrs away. My DH and family grew up in Wilmington, NC (SE coastal NC) and until 10 years ago BIL lived in Wilmington and we saw each other a lot! Now we see each other typically once a year at the family beach cottage in October for a week.

Services are set for Sunday, my DH will be speaking for the generation of brothers and sisters…so he needs to get his cough over so he can speak at the services. DH is the youngest of five and BIL who died is his oldest brother, 10 years older. Old enough that he was the older brother who taught you how to drive, gave you a beer at 16, let you feel like an adult as a kid. DH has another older brother who was just a couple of years older and was a bully until DH grew big enough to push him back…oh how crazy to have these descriptions when the folks in question are 63 - 73 years old!

Thanks to all who are sending us good thoughts, we are still crying every day.

Oh, got to gym Sunday and today…go to PT tomorrow.

Goodnight friends, TT

TT: Your dh must be miserable. I really hope he has been or will be going to see a doctor. His grief could be compounding his sickness. Sending you a warm HUG.

Ruth: Sorry to hear about Bruno's limp. Hope the x-rays show what's going on.

Karen: Have a fabulous visit with your dd and granddaughter!

This weekend dh, dd, and I visited ds and his gf. Her mother and 2 aunts were visiting. We had a short yet very pleasant visit and it was so nice to meet them. Ds's gf is a dancer and she was in the dance at the NC Museum of Art. The dance was outside. We were sitting at the lower part of a hill and the 4 dancers started on the other side of the hill and danced all the way down it. It was crazy cool to see it.

Worked in the clothes closet this afternoon and walked afterwards.

TT: So glad your dh is improving! Continual coughing is exhausting.

Mowed 90 minutes today. Perfect weather for it!

Yikes Ruth!

Oh my goodness Ruth. That's crazy about your microwave and now your dryer! And $300 for a part is ridiculous. You could almost buy a new one for that amount.

Walked this afternoon.

This is weird. The above picture looks fine on my computer and distorted on my phone. What do you send on your end?

Ruth - the picture looks fine now - at first it was off - but now its perfect

Wonder - it's too early to plant in Denver. We wait till Memorial Day week-end if we plant flower - we are leaning more and more to low maintenance plants

Weather is turning rainy, cold and damp through Saturday

Loving having GD and DD#1 here. I'm so exhausted from cooking more than usual due to the holiday and my body hurts. Don't really need bigger quantities. GD is standing on her own and can walk holding your hand, so I decided to order a Little Tykes riding toy or toy she can push. I will come tomorrow. We nice have a nice supply of new toys.

Waiting for DH to go for a walk.
