Good evening, everyone!
Yesterday, my allergies were killing me, plus it was raining out. So, the other day, I was in the garage, when I found my badminton set. We called my son and asked him to pick up some birdies on the way home. Well, during the intermission of the Stanley Cup playoffs, I break out the rackets and tell my son, "let's go!" in the living room. Of course, the birdies went everywhere, because the ceiling wasn't high enough, so he breaks out this bucket of foam golf balls he uses to play hockey with. Well, let me tell you, I haven't laughed so hard like I did the other night, playing this. The balls are so light, that even if one hit you, you don't feel it.
So, yesterday, I had my daughter play with me in the living room for 20 minutes, then we were starving and ate our breakfast. Then I bounced the ball against the sliding glass door for a few minutes, it was like playing racqetball again- I had a blast! Then my stinking allergies hit me hard, so I rested the rest of the day. Did some light housework and made dinner.
Today, my son decided that we were going to meet his sister after she was done with her classes at college and go to Planet Fitness first, and then swimming! Poor girl thought she was just going to PF and then coming home, little did she know, her brother had other plans.
Thank goodness I had the corned beef and potatoes already cooked for the corned beef hash we were having tonight with eggs, as I barely got it made before we had to leave. We had a blast!
today, I did the treadmill for a mile and a half, and did a bunch of arm machines. Since my wrist injury back in October (I had surgery in middle of March, pain was too much), I haven't been able to work my arms out, so I tested my wrist to see how it would fare. Did great, but didn't push it past 20 pounds on each machine. I figured I'd better build up slowly. It felt great, though, to be back at Planet Fitness again. I missed it so much!
At the pool, we didn't get to play our normal beachball volleyball game, as there was too many people in the pool today. We did, however, do a lot of water exercises for over 45 minutes. My dear son decided we were done, because he was starving, and dying for the corned beef hash I made earlier. then he got my poor daughter hungry, so off we went, and here I am.
I was getting tired after I ate my "lunch" of corned beef, but suddenly now, I am starting to get energetic again. We shall see if I do anything else tonight- I might just pedal gently on the recumbent bike while watching hockey games tonight.
Have a great night, all, and see you tomorrow, I hope! If not, I will update when I can.
