Good morning!
We’re thinking about heading over to the Berkshires today. There’s a fabulous Chinese restaurant whose food is so good it’s worth the trip. It will be raining all day in Williamstown so it’s still to be decided.
All went well at the eye doctor. I’m going back tomorrow so she can dilate my eyes. DH always has his dilated because of a previous tear in the eye, now repaired. Someone has to drive with clear vision! So, tomorrow is my turn.
Absolutely no sign of glaucoma but she did spot the very beginnings of cataracts. Nothing to worry about now but I will have to have cataract surgery some time down the line, many years I hope. She said everyone gets cataracts, some younger than others.
Today’s workout:
- Jenny Ford Step workout – 30 minutes
- 132 Pushups
- Stretch
Margot: I love, love, love Charlene’s workouts! Her step reminds me of Jenny Ford’s as it’s simple to follow and really gets a sweat on – good workouts!
I must incorporate heel drops! Thank you for the reminder. Margaret’s site is still not working. I’ve given up on ever resubscribing to her channel because of – what appears to me – a lackadaisical attitude to get things done. It may not be the reason. I honestly think she’s struggling for funds, something that I’ve felt all along. I hope I’m wrong and that she’s comfortable but there’s just too many excuses about why her site is wonky.
Summer Breeze: It’s very, very gloomy here today. As I told my eye doctor, I’m hoping my dad’s genes mixed with my mom’s will help me not get glaucoma.
Pat: Good workout day! I’m not officially going through Kassandra’s challenge again, just kind of picking at random one of her practices. They’re nice and short but always deliver!
Beth: Eyes are a weird thing. I don’t have a problem with anyone touching my eyes but I so get it. I get very weirded out at the dentist! I always have the “deer in headlights” look!
Donna: Dreary here as well – but that’s normal for Upstate NY ☹
Once the weather stabilizes, I will also make walking a priority. Nothing beats being outdoors!
I have an open concept home. I have mixed feelings about it. Since it’s a ranch, it’s a perfect home for people retiring and downsizing. It’s a good house to run your Hover-Round through! LOL! Lots of open space and not too many sharp turns. Next house, though, won’t be the same design.
You nailed it on the head. When we have company staying over, I still maintain my routine and go to bed early. The open concept is absolutely awful to block out the noise of just people talking in a normal voice. Another reason to not have an open kitchen/living room/dining room!
Sounds like your contractor is spot on with the estimate. For me, trust is everything when it comes to contractors.
Anyway, that’s about it for me today! See you all later – waves to
Pam! I hope she’s enjoying the end of her vacation!
