I managed to get in the shower and wash my hair. Now I'm sitting here, trying to get the energy up to comb it before it dries to the side of my head in a tangle. I'm so tempted to go back to bed now.

My back hurts so bad that I couldnt bend to dry my legs. Couldnt bend down to pick up my brush when I dropped it. Ended up using my hair dryer to dry off after the shower. (put it on Cool so I wouldnt get too hot). I just need to get up the energy to comb my hair now so I dont scare anyone if I go outside.

Stomach still hurts. I think I forgot to take any tummy medicine for the past couple of days (did IV steroids last month) and I think my stomach is not happy with me for forgetting the tummy meds. I think once I get my hair combed, I'm going to go thaw a bagel out and put some fresh-made peanut butter on it and take an extra tummy pill. (grocery store did a remodel, and they have a machine that makes fresh peanut butter...tastes better than the stuff that comes in a jar)

I might go treadmill for a bit if I feel better after hair combing and the peanut butter on a bagel lunch. Right now I just feel really super tired and shaky.

Billie, welcome to our Keep on Moving Club, you are our newest member :)

At our public pool are people of all shapes and sizes. In the older crowd, many are over 300 pounds. Some of them are thin but sooo old, like in their 90s that their skin is decrepit. So, I am so proud of them for getting into a suit and into the water. Go for it girl! Get in the suit and into the pool-- who cares what anyone else sees or doesnt see-- it's your health we are talking about here :)

Erin, have you called your doctor about your stomach and your weakness? Or is it just more of the same?

I swam a mile this morning. Tomorrow I will be flying out o f town, and back on Sunday, so, will be away from the board.

Its nearly September: Watch fo the September thread which I will post later in the day on Monday.

Nothing for me Thurs or Fri. I have some work stuff that really needs to get done but I also need to vacuum and dust, and exercise. I think it will be basketball down at the park tomorrow, then maybe gardening since it's supposed to be nice outside tomorrow. I'll check in after I have something to report. :)

Alrighty then, 20 minutes of brisk basketball for today, then 20-30 minutes of weeding and puttering in the garden. It was 65 degrees with low humidity, partly cloudy and windy so I didn't get overheated at all. :)

Tomorrow I really, really need to finish the housework, yucky... I hate to dust, lol. :icon_rolleyes: Maybe I should get a DVD player and play music to dust by, lol.

I hate dusting too ewiz. Isnt basketball fun? We just got back from atlanta. Guess who was sitting at the bar next to DD and DH-- Alan Iverson, the NBA superstar :)

I just swam 1 1/4 miles and it was wonderful, again :)
