Total -- 105/620

 

[Raya]

I remain at 0. I caught a cough of some sort on the plane, but didn't want anyone to think I'd runaway forever. Hoping to do something soon, well, something other than coughing that is.

35 treadmill minutes yesterday, and a birding class field trip today - it was two hours, but a lot of stop and go, so I'm counting 60 minutes. 190/600

Color changes today are piglet1979 and PollyannaMom (me) and the team is up to 1,014 minutes and 14% of goal!


Continuing with the Jungle Book, we have another big cat, Bagheera:


Bagheera is a black panther (or melanistic Indian leopard) voiced in the 1967 Disney cartoon by Sebastian Cabot and in the 2016 live-action remake by Ben Kingsley.

For those old enough to remember read-along books with records, Sebastian Cabot was also the narrator of this one:

70 minutes for me - walking, gardening.

Back home. We made it through the ongoing crisis at Newark Liberty International Airport, though we were on one of the many delayed flights.

We got caught in that a couple of weeks ago - it's a disaster! And the details are so scary.

I, like Raya, seem to have caught some sort of air-travel-illness. We've been back in Texas since Thursday night. I took Friday off, then got sick on Saturday. I plan to join the May challenge, but I'm going to wait until I start feeling better so I can estimate a realistic goal for the month. Yesterday seems to have been the worst of it, so hopefully I'm on the mend.

I went a little too hard on leg day & have taken a few rest days. It's time to get busy again!

5/7 30 walking

Congrats to BonnieF and ktink on reaching blue, and best wishes to Elizabeth to feel better soon!

[Twilight Sparkle]

Oh wait! I really should count time spent doing a major clean yesterday because it involved a lot of hauling stuff downstairs. I'll count 15 minutes of stairs. My glutes felt it last night.

635/2500

 

[Twilight Sparkle]

35 minute run

[PollyannaMom]

50 minutes since my last post, for 240/600.
And a big congrats to Twilight Sparkle for jumping up to orange!

Today's Disney cat is Mr. Mittens, from Soul:



from https://www.pixar.com/soul - "Mr Mittens is a therapy cat spends who spends his days purring, cuddling and comforting patients in their hospital rooms. The cozy cat is enlisted to assist Joe Gardner when he’s hospitalized after an unfortunate fall. Despite a job well done, Mr. Mittens ends up in the wrong place at the wrong time, embarking on an unexpected adventure."


Mr. Mittens is voiced by Jamie Foxx, and has been immortalized in two different Funko Pops:

Spoiler: RE: end of movie

No worries! - Mr. Mittens is alive and well at the end of the film! (AI Overview): ...the director explicitly states that "Mr. Mittens' soul is safe and accounted for." While Joe Gardner briefly takes over Mr. Mittens' body, Mr. Mittens' soul is ultimately returned to him and he is reunited with his owner at the end of the film.

After a few much needed rainy days, it's back to the garden!!! I've put in a good 120 minutes over the last couple of days - and my knees are testifying to that! But the planting is almost done (don't know why I say that - I always add more!) It's kind of like DVC points - add-on-itis! IYKYK!
Happy Mothers Day to all!

I didn’t know details until after we got home, and I’m kind of glad. I will avoid Newark for the foreseeable future.

I, like Raya, seem to have caught some sort of air-travel-illness. We've been back in Texas since Thursday night. I took Friday off, then got sick on Saturday.

Hope you’re feeling better and better!

Raya 60/600 - 10%

Glad you’re recovering!
