I should be halfway by the end of Monday!!

DS#2 is up early this morning to go to the doctor and get his stitches out! Monday night he was playing basketball with friends and hit the rim with his forehead. 7 stitches. Glad we had a 20 year wait for a kid to get stitches. I don't like watching blood squirt out of their scalps! Thought he was fine but lately he's been saying that his head still hurts and he's sensitive to light. Hope he tells the nurse that today! Although I don't think there's much you can do for a concussion.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

back from camping - didn't do as much hiking as I had expected.

The back felt good, but man it was cold. Slept in a tent in 35 degree temps. I should have counted that whole night as fitness minutes, as I shivered for hours.

We had hoped to do some canoeing but the weather wasn't coooperating.

Saturday - 179 minutes


451 minutes/1500

I've got a lot of work to do.

65 minutes today...resistance training and pilates. 65 minutes till goal...I didn't think I would have the energy to work out as much as I have been since I went back to work almost 2 weeks ago (teacher here!). I'm pleasantly surprised that I've stuck to it and managed more workout time than I thought I could. I'll probably increase my goal in October.

Updated thru post #73. If I missed you, let me know!

I've done such a crappy job as host this month....I am struggling to get moving these last few weeks (too darn hot!) and even when we had a cool front over the weekend, I found other stuff to do rather than run/walk. I think I just needed a mental and physical break, and hope to get back on the right track soon. In any case, I hope to finish the month strong and I want to say GOOD JOB to those of you who are staying strong! Congrats on your hard work

bangzoom - GOOD FOR YOU keeping with it during the first tough weeks of school. I'm so impressed

linda - hope the kid's stitches heal and he doesn't get friendly with any other hoops

hmack - brrrrr on the 35 degree camping. Haven't done that since I was a kid looooong ago! What a trooper

my2boys...24 miles in a week? Nice job!

30 minutes of yoga yesterday.

Thanks for the kind words...exercise helps me relieve stress and has helped me to adjust to my work routine again much easier. I know that might sound silly to some, but it really does help!

I think you are preaching to the choir on this thread!!

Schedules are finally worked out, so now I can go back to swimming in the morning at the Y. Only one bathroom here and it was getting problematic in the mornings. Now that DS1 is taking an early bird class and has to be at school at 6:30 that frees it up! When DS2 goes back to college in a couple weeks it'll free up a whole lot more! His stitches are out and was told 6 weeks until he is symptom free.

Heather--brrrr we are fair weather campers (it has to be really hot for DH to even think about going!).

 

[mainemooncat]
