Well I'm done exercising for a while. My daughter and I were in a car accident last night. Thankfully, no serious injuries.Bumps and bruises on both of us and my wrist is fractured in 3 places. They put a cast on it today and I go back Friday to see if the bones have shifted at all. If they have, then it's surgery. If not, six weeks in the cast. No idea what this means for work. It's my left wrist, which is non dominant, but also is my cancer side. So there was plenty of twisting to get the bones in the right spot and a lidocaine shot. I'd have passed out were it not for the lidocaine, but now I'm worried about lymphedema. This year cannot get over fast enough. 2018 needs to be better.

Oh, cdv, that is awful. so sorry to hear that....hope your wrist heals quickly and uneventfully!

Back to PT today after a break over the holiday. Squats, bike time, leg lifts, lots of fun stuff (not). Mostly walking without a cane now.

Thank you, everyone. I am very, very thankful my daughter was not hurt. It could have been much worse. Seatbelts and airbags save lives. The whole thing terrified my daughter. She just started driving and drives herself back and forth to college. I was the driver and she was in the passenger seat. I’m not sure I’ll be able to get her behind the wheel Wednesday to get to class. Fingers crossed

cdv-sending healing thoughts your way. Glad it wasn't worse but wish you could rewind the clock.

Thanks for the good thoughts. Worked a full day today but am in a lot of pain so tomorrow might just try a half day and see how it goes. I may end up in PT but I am hoping not to. It is so complicated to get after school appointments.

Sounds like many are enjoying warm weather. It was windy and freezing in CT today. Maybe milder temps are headed our way

cdv, so glad you and DD we not seriously injured. Fingers crossed that there is no bone shifting and healing in on a forward momentum and easy does it for this week until xray results. Octo, wow, you are doing great. Pat, good to catch up with you. Scared - Body Combat a fit for you - go for it! Nice photos Claire. Ruth, you are such a positive inspiration to so many. Falconer, hope those side effects of L are less painful for you this week. HeidiHill, DH was in St. Gallen yesterday and perhaps with more notice, I could go with him. Cheryl, on Sunday attended quarterly workshop for #79. The on/off mat at a diagonal can't work for my classes as you know, cycling before and we need those mats to keep off grotty sweaty floor. Like the tai chi.

Off to run a load of wash and get dinner on the move. Stay warm and snug everyone!

BodyBalance & Pilates today.

Edited for spelling -sigh.

Hi All. I pushed mowed for 2 hours and 15 minutes. The grass looks okay - it was mainly to get the leftover leaves. Then I went to the park for a partial walk/run as it was getting late and the sun was going down. Delightfully cool weather. Made mowing fun!

Good job, Mimi!

I had a super-busy day but managed a half hour on the dreadmill just now.

Morning! Did a Jillian Ripped in 30 workout +15 additional minutes of strength work last night! Followed by plopping myself on couch and watching 3 episodes from season 1 of This Is Us. Hubby and I didn't watch last year and caught an episode a few weeks ago and loved it. Decided to get thru season 1 and catch up on what we have missed from season 2 before starting to watch the new episodes each Tuesday. I am not a big TV person but actually enjoying it! Today the schedule I am following calls for a 30 minute run..10 min warmup then 3 min of running followed by 1 min of air squats, then repeat. That could be fun today and bad tomorrow! 😁

Happy Wednesday! Wishing everyone good workouts!

tessu: I bet your cross stitch Christmas ornaments are beautiful!

Runner: I don't watch This Is Us but I've heard it's really good.

Pat: Have fun with your friends tonight.

Today was gorgeous with the high near 70. I started my Christmas decorating and had the front door open for fresh air. This afternoon I went for an extended walk/run and just felt alive!

((Chris)) so glad you and your daughter are OK - scary!

Wonderland, what a happy comment - gorgeous day, fresh air, and just feeling alive.

Great job everyone, keep up the good work.

No formal exercise, but went up and down our stairs a gazillion times — spent most of the day decluttering. My arms are sore and I got out of breathseveral times, so that counts :)

Went to my 75 min active Yin Yoga class last night and will go to a yoga/pilates combo class later today. Happy end of November, welcome to December!

WOW cdv, you both are so lucky! Hope the healing both mentally and physically goes well.

Went to the play "Finding Neverland" last night - it was fabulous. Great cast, great story. It's a touring company, look for it in a city near you and go see it, you will not be disappointed.

Did Classical Stretch this morning, now heading out to our woods to look for a suitable Christmas tree. We have been purchasing a cut your own tree from a local tree farm for several years, but this year have decided to go back to one of the white pines that grows everywhere on our property, if we can find one that works. We did this occasionally in the past, and since they are not pruned into a perfect shape they sort of look like a Charlie Brown tree, but with enough decorations they seem to work! Oncologist appt. this afternoon.
