Sheba, so far so good and he went Snowboarding and said the food is very good. I am having trouble here with having to change my pw everytime , so if I don’t post as much until this is resolved you know why. I have once again changed my hiking route not that it will matter since there are lots of people walking and biking in the area. I’m sticking to the side with most people and cutting the hike a bit short for now. Like you I really want to be outside. We’ve had some great sunny days with lots of rain forecast for Thursday.
It’s so sweet that Mr. Sheba watches Heidi with you. You have a long history of collecting and having so many pieces is amazing. I remember when we had the Sparkle thread and when you said they showed the armoire, and when others called into her show. It’s good you have a dedicated room for your collection.
Stay warm in Oz.

Oodie, Sending Belated birthday wishes your way! Hope it was a happy birthday!

We have about the same weather in the ‘burgh today and for the rest of the week. I felt a tad better this morning since I slept better.😴 I think I have the flu since this has been hanging on for a week now.🤢 Going to go lay down – AGAIN.

Thanks for the shout-out, All Star Game at the end of the week which is a joke so we don’t play until next week. I think they are going to trade my favorite player.😫 After all these years, you know you don’t have to tell me who to root for in the Super Bowl. And this one is extra special.👍🥰

Glad all is well with your pipes, stay warm, send hugs to you and Poppy.

Good afternoon. So thankful that the “bump” in the road is going down.

It will be in the 60s today, but 40s tonight. However, our “Wolf” Moon shone brightly in an orange and yellow last night. So gorgeous. Best of all, it followed my car all the way home.

Hubby was wonderful last night. All smiles. I stopped at the Asian take out on the way to see him. Picked up his favorite soup which is the “Hot and Sour.” Loved every drop. He had a full dinner, so he wasn’t hungry for anything else. Showed him the pictures of a scooter that looked like a small car. However, it can only be driven on a sidewalk. Cute little “bugger” with windshield wipers for the front and back, headlights and automatic doors. Actually, the doors and windows open with a remote or using the buttons on the inside. Since he won’t be able to drive anytime soon, this would serve a purpose and would make him mobile and thus independent. He will also be able to go grocery shopping in this vehicle as long as he uses the sidewalk. Not for road use. Thankfully, all he will need is an ID card from MV.. He will be able to carry both his walker and wheelchair in the scooter. It runs on batteries which can be plugged into any outlet. So many new possibilities for those that are handicapped. It is all coming together and I will put some of these into motion as soon as I’m told he will be returning home. For some I need 2 days notice, for others a week. Still have a bed issue. Love our new mattress and box spring and the metal bed. However, hubby will probably need a bed that can adjust to an upright position at the head and something for both legs. I will need something similar for the house in the North as well. The research I have done is exciting to see. What started me on this path was the wheelchair HSN is selling. What an adventure this has been.

Time for some household chores. Oh, before I forget. Not sure about Trivia since so many are still locked out of Community. It is a relatively easy sign in process, if you can remember your new password. I just wish that this can be readjusted to the web site. Oh well, guess we will have to take the lemons before we can enjoy something sweet.

Let’s Get Physical

Fitness is a journey, not just a destination. The beauty lies in the experiences we gain along the way.

When we think about fitness, we tend to think about goals — attaining a certain body shape, hitting a number on the scale, or completing a marathon. We have a destination in mind, and our goal can become all that we think about and desire. This mindset can trigger patterns of behavior like overextending ourselves (physically and mentally), becoming impatient, and struggling with our willpower and self-esteem. It can ultimately lead us to burnout or even injury.

Fitness is a journey, not just a destination. The beauty lies in the experiences we gain along the way — and the rewarding feelings we get from being fully present. This is true for any kind of fitness or movement. Whether you dance, swim, run, walk, bike, or do yoga, getting physical is a gateway for our senses to come alive. As we coordinate our limbs, stretch our muscles, move, breathe, and sweat, we can experience our own unique flow of energy, resilience, and empowerment — pure mind-body synergy.

Fitness goals are helpful to have — we all want to feel healthy, strong, and able. Goals give us motivation to keep going, to see what we’re capable of. But also remember to listen to your body, honor its limits, and embrace the process of progress rather than perfection. Celebrate the day-to-day small victories, the growth you achieve along the way, and all the health benefits you gain from simply moving your body.

If you’re reflecting on your own fitness journey, ask yourself what kind of movement you would like to do. Maybe you choose what you already know and love. Maybe you’re looking for something new. Then, think about the experience you want by setting an intention along with your goal. For example, an intention might be, “I want to exercise to improve my health, feel stronger, and enhance my body confidence.” Or maybe it’s, “I want to have fun moving and giving my body permission to express itself.” Your intention can be a wonderful way to support you in achieving more specific fitness goals. Acknowledge yourself along the way, pausing to give thanks for the sense of accomplishment that comes with showing up to do the work and taking care of your health. AMEN! 😎🎈

Good Morning Peeps enjoy this beautiful Tuesday in our wonderful community. 😎🎈
