Checking in . . .

Dang near killed my body last week doing chores, refinishing a shelf (lots of stretching on that one - keep the core muscles in check), yard work, and daily walks. Body rebelled for a few days and I only did my walks and stretches.

Back on board today so did my walk (I'm up to 20 min. now) and will be heading over to my parents to attempt a bit of yard work. I love this weather and just want to be outside as much as I can.:p

I love Indian Summer too Ewiz :)

Nice to see you checking in tkrik, and staying active.

I swam a mile thi smorning in the heated public pool. I had the whole pool to myself-- all 28 lanes, but I only used one of them ;)

I only did yoga this morning. Trying to conserve energy for the other things I have to do today.

BBS - My cousin's kids swam a race with Michael Phelps. The older of the 2 almost beat Phelps.:eek::p It was pretty cool to watch.

I finally got enough crap out of my closet that I can see the floor in there, and walk around in the closet.

I'm sore now...took me from about 10pm till about 2 or 3am to really get going in the closet. That was actual exercise. My arms are sore now and I feel like I did too much exercise. So, I guess cleaning the closet really does count as exercise.

Now I can get to the Rubbermaid totes that are stored in the closet. Once I can get those out of there, I can vacuum and then try to get my large standing jewelry box into the closet (so I have more room in my room) I can finally reach my fabric stash again, (huge Rubbermaid tote that I can barely lift) so now I can start sewing again. Yay!

I also got a nice donation of scrap yarn put into some shopping bags...that part was easier than I thought it would be. I thought I was more attached to the yarn than I was...it was easy to just toss balls of yarn into the donation pile without having to think about it or regret it.

Next will be to go thru the clothes that I dont wear (because they mostly dont fit me anymore) and toss them into the donation pile too.

Next cleaning (exercise) project will be to empty out my computer cabinets. Probably wont get as much exercise from cleaning those out as I did going thru the closet.

I think I'll rest today and finish the closet tomorrow...I think I dropped some spoons in the closet. I'm tired today!

All my moving yesterday....going to the Doc's, has me a little achy and too pooped to pop, but I did my stretches (sort of) this morning. ;)

Congrats to All. :grouphug:

Erin, of course it counts.

Sallyc--that is great that you moved around today even though you ached from yesterdays activity.

sabi: count fun in bed if you were pretty active at it :) I wouldnt know, those days are over for me I think...

Thats a drag about those sypmtoms sabi.

I got to the public pool at 7 a.m. and went swimming and watched the sun go up while doing laps. Chilly, but not too bad. One Mile.

woohoo BBS, good for you and the swimming... I love swimming, but just do not get a chance! we used to be members at the Y., but never got there much...

hugsss and thanks, sarah

Getting more done in the day
 

The weather is heating up nicely and the pool is keeping its temperature so its a daily swim for me, if only for a short one.
Other than that, I'm on horse poop duty as always. Managed 1 acre today, helped by a little pony who had to check every poop that went in the barrow. Then he walks alongside me with his nose on the handle; helping me. :winky:
Also weeded about half an acre of the top paddock of the dreaded water weed stuff I have. Luckily its a case of pulling at the root and about a foot squared of plant comes up. I came across a hiding lizard and a rabbit.
Then off to collect and move two half tonne bales of hay, rolling them off the end of a trailer.
Oh, and the laundry and cooking and usual fence repairs and grooming and feeding.
Now it's 2 in the morning and I can't sleep again...
Oh, and No energy for getting jiggy with it.

Aw, that's so sweet about the pony. :D Just make sure you don't let him give you a kiss after he helps, lol. Wow, I wish I had farm chores to do, I'd be in heaven. :BeamUp::heartthrob:
