18 January - What I'm Thankful for Today

It's been a good day. It didn't exactly start the way I wanted it to, but I still went to the Y and worked out in the fitness center. I'm thankful for the good workout in the fitness center. I worked the elliptical and stationary bike for 20 minutes each and the leg press. I increased the reps on the leg press to 30 reps with both legs, 20 reps for the right, and 15 for the left. I'm very happy my left leg is getting stronger. By the end of the week, I should increase the time on the elliptical and stationary bike. I'm thankful for the time spent here. I got the notifications worked twice now and had a few good chuckles as I read comments and posts. I'm thankful for the work I accomplished on Vendetta. Another few pages and I should have everything worked out that needed changing so I can proceed to the end of the book. I want it finished by the end of February so I can start the publishing process. We'll see how it goes. I'm thankful for all the exercise I've gotten on the homefront. I don't quit when I leave the Y. I also put in almost half an hour on the foot cycle. Another reason why I think I can up my time at the Y on the bike and elliptical. Okay, that's my day. I have a few notifications to read and then I'm off the computer for the day. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image is mine. @TheHorse has missed some of my snow photos.

That is good you were still able to go to the Y and get your exercise in. Hopefully you can meet your deadline for finishing your book and be able to move on to the next step.

I am thankful for the almost spring weather today. I'm thankful I managed to get out earlier today, so I could get more work done this evening. I'm thankful I've passed the payout threshold a day earlier than I did last month. I'm thankful my cats seem happy and healthy. They are all senior cats.

I'm sorry your day didn't start the way you were hoping, but it does sound like it got better, and I hope it did.

I couldn't swim yesterday, but I made use of the fitness center so it was all good. Today I swam, but couldn't use the fitness center. I did something to my right hip when getting dressed after swimming. So, I'm exercising at home. It all works out. Thank you.

@tammys85 Yes. My hip is better. Today, I'm under attack from a cold. I'm nipping it in the bud and hope to be back to normal by tomorrow. I didn't go anywhere today.

@marlina Thank you. Yes, I can. I'm even enjoying it and seeing if I can exercise longer on the fitness side. I can only swim so long as we're signed up for a certain length of time or I might swim longer there too.

@just4him Well, things have changed. For the worse. It's supposed to be in the high 30's later this week. I'm trying to not let it get me down. There's always next Winter!

Out my back door. 01/06/21 Photo is mine.
I'm happy you're getting better, Dearheart. Is that a recent photo of snow? We've had two good snowfalls so far this month but both have melted off rather quickly. I did get photos of both of them, though.

@crazyhorseladycx I took Ibuprofen when I got home and my hip is starting to feel better. I want to work the cycle again today. We'll see. I'm sorry your sunshine disappeared, but that's good about the snow. Moisture is always good in any form. Not good about the winds though.

Yeah, physical problem, nothing to worry about. I was back in the pool this morning. Just not the fitness center, but I'm working out at home. I messed up my hip getting dressed and almost couldn't walk out of the building this morning. It's not fun getting old. Give me a young body at this same age and I'll be happy. I'm glad you had patience, sunshine, and pony scratches.

You are doing wonderful after two knee surgeries, that is fantastic. I am sure you feel better after a good workout. Hope you got the work done you wanted done on Vendetta. I'm thankful for missionaries, going where God has called them to go, being our hands and feet to minister to others around the world. Have a blessed night.
