Sends, it sounds like something I would say. Lol

I'm trying not to say that anymore, people give me a look, and roll there eyes.

I've never had an issue with weight, or I have but the opposite issue. I realized I shouldn't be giving dieting advice.

It's like someone giving child raising advice that never had kids. Lol

So I'm 🤐

How about "Move more, eat less"?

I don't remember who said that.

Skipping while walking is much too strenuous,
and could be dangerous in the older population.

[This is just a joke, imo].

Which I realized a long time about exercising, walking and moving is what helps me with anxiety.

Every now and then I stop for a bit for what ever reason, and my anxiety comes back. Then I'm like dummy start moving.

I use to get my summer exercise in the pool, but since we don't have one this year I gotta change it up

I belong to a group that has discussed long covid a lot, it seems severe illness and/or lasting effects are the luck of the draw and having sailed through easily in the past is not a guarantee of escaping them in the future.

You mentioned skipping your walks Gershun - does that mean you are finally over your broken foot?

Gurshen, yeah, I had that brain fog from covid for a couple weeks, it was strange, like I had to tell myself to open the door before I walked into it.

Exercise is my natural anxiety pill. Which I've been really slacking a little because of the humidity, and mentally I'm starting to feel it. hubby has a back issue, lately so when he sits around he likes me to sit with him.

Boccie tonight, that will get me outta this funk.

Beatty, I think it was you who warned me I might have brain fog after covid. I definitely do!🤔

I hope it ends soon. For both of us.🤞

Gershun, oh same! Since Covid (again) I forget or misplace stuff everywhere! Even left my swimwear at the pool (now lost). Get to work.. glasses? Nope. Lunch? Nope. 🙄

Send, how about "Move it or Lose it"? 🏃‍♂️🤪

Send, I haven't been going for my walks or anything lately. Shame on me! My latest bout with covid really knocked out my energy and don't get me started on the brain fog. I really need to self monitor my ways now. Keys? check. Wallet? check Did I lock the door? Check.

I went out twice in the last little while and forgot to lock the door behind me. I've been forgetting to put my seat belt on too. Little things. I attribute it to the covid cause it started right after that.

My husband exercises to videos online-takes over the living room all morning, most days.
It is a good thing!

Puts me to shame as I am hiding out in the bedroom to give him the tiny space we have.

Not a complaint.

Can someone start a NEW exercise thread?

Call it
"CWillies Exercise Buddies"
"Exercise Buddies share their stories"
OR
"How to Exercise to keep enjoying life"

"Don't Call It Exercise, keep moving to save your own life"

"Exercising While Aging"

The reason I don't want to start a discussion thread is that posters direct their questions to the original poster for years, and I just don't have time to do that.

Cwillie, way to go!

I’d like to brag about exercise. Not only am I playing hockey again but I’m back on the points sheet. But to paraphrase Matthew McConaughey’s character David Wooderson: That’s what I hate about these new players. I get older, they stay the same age.

Good for you cwillie! Enjoy that bike.

The exercise thread has been closed so I'll post this here -
I finally pulled my bike out of the shed but while riding noticed the tire was almost flat so on a whim I biked over to a friend's bike shop to see if he'd fill my tire. He not only did that he gave the bike a tune up complete with a new seat, reflectors and raised handlebars, all for the cost of the parts... I have no more excuses to not ride!

Doggiemom , I'm so happy that you are having all these realization. Really happy for you.

Getting away from it all and clearing your head is so good.

It's a road but as they say you are getting out of the FOG. 🙂

I wanted to let you know how I am doing. I have a new teaching job as an ESL teacher that is ten minutes walking distance from my home. I will be serving Mark with the divorce papers and hopefully have the divorce final within two months.

I realize that I stayed far too long in a marriage that was full of emotional and verbal abuse. Mark is I the ICU getting dialysis daily and his memory is getting worse. He was offered hospice and he again refused. I realize I let myself go in far too many ways and am healing and my mental health is much better.

I guess the best thing is that I did leave and realize that I am a worthy person. I sympathize with Mark and told him the other day I care about him, but the divorce is final. I told him I do not love him, and that made him very angry. He said I quit loving him because he got sick. The truth is, I realized that his being ill highlighted my unhappiness.

I plan on leaving New Mexico for Ohio within a couple years.

They where both amazing. Tim Conway was actually dyslexic, and he got laughed at so much , he went into comedy. He was a comic genius.

Loved Bob Newhart, too!

They both lived a good long life.

My Dad really loved Bob Newhart’s humor . When Dad was sick I got him some DVD’s of his stand up routines .

Dad liked Tim Conway too from Carol Burnett. That was a good show too .

Anxiety ,

Good for you ! It’s on your Mom , when she is ready she will take pain med .

I’ve been pleased with myself lately , as well , that I have been better about letting go of feeling bad about my MIL’s situation of her choosing.

Perhaps I should toast to her “ right to rot” . !!

I had a light bulb moment while answering another post about mom. Yes she is in pain from her back, and yes I hate to see her in pain. And it's really upsetting me to see her in pain.

But she is the one that is refusing pain meds. This is on her, this is her responsibility.

If I was 88 and in pain, I would take anything they would give me to help

We are getting more rain this morning and supposedly a drop in temperature tomorrow. I have to roll my eyes at the hyperbole from every weather forecast - "a relief from the sweltering heat" - come on, it may be uncomfortably humid but we haven't even been hitting 30° here.

CW, I've thought of that.

We are supposed to get a break from the intense heat, Thursday, so something to look forward to.
