I went to the gym this morning and did some cardio and then my weight routine. I had a conversation with Ken the trainer about feeling frustrated with not losing any weight for a while, he says its all about the diet, I know that and I work really hard to keep mine under control. Yes I have a cheat here and there but over all I am doing what I am suppose to, still doing lots of cardio, maybe I need to do more, I am going to try and implement some things here at home and try to do them in the early afternoons. Hoping this will get the loss starting again.
I saw my massage therapist this morning and he is happy that the fluid has all drained away, so tha'ts great, he also spent some time helping me stretch out my taunt muscles and giving me ideas to try to keep them stretched, my ribs are feeling much better and so is my shoulder.

Hoping the cortizone shot helps
October 09, 2013
I saw the Ortho yesterday and he gave me another couple of shots of cortisone in my shoulder again. We are hoping this will take care of the last of the inflammation, if it doesn't then we will try injecting the tendons. Time will tell, its pretty sore today and I didn't sleep very well.
I did go to the gym as it was my cardio day, I did 45 minutes on the elliptical machine and then I did some stretching for my physio. He says my muscles are very tight, probably from when I was sick 5 years ago, I walked allot then to keep my mind off things, but didn't stretch.
My weight has plateaued and I am not sure why, I will talk to Ken tomorrow about it, feeling a bit frustrated, my diet is really good, so not sure what is going on.

Back to see the Ortho today
October 8, 2013
I have an appointment about my shoulder today, its much better but not 100%. I'll see what he has to say today. I wanted to discuss the other painful joints I have with him and see if we can get some sort of pain management in place.
I went to the gym this morning and did my weight routine. Then came home and took Finnegan for a walk. I have to be in Orleans early this morning so not much time to waste this morning.
I will chek in later, I also have my Art class today, so very busy one for me.

It's warmed up again
October 07, 2013
Well I took my daughter's dog down to visit my Mom on Thursday, we visited in the evening and again the next morning. One of the nurses had the dog get up on my Aunt's bed to awaken her. lol Mom enjoyed having him visit, and so did the seniors, he is big enough to just lay his head on their laps so they could pet him. I spent some one on one time with my gran-daughters a I did plenty of walking on Thursday afternoon and on Friday morning and headed home on Friday night, it's always good to sleep in your own bed.
I was very busy around the house on the weekend, blanching carrots for the freezer and cooking pumpkin for pies.
I was at the gym this morning and discovered I can watch netflix on my tablet while working out, so today I did 55 minutes and watched an episode of Homeland. The time really flew by.

Off on a road trip with my little buddy
October 3, 2013
I picked up my daughter's dog yesterday and he will be here for a week and a half, I am sure I will be able to get in some extra walking. yipeee
I am taking him on a road trip to see my Mom, she feel in love with him and has called and asked for me to bring him down, so we will head down after lunch, she asked me to bring his treats with me so she can feed him something.
I went to the gym this morning and did 30 minutes on the elliptical machine and then did my weight routine.
Looking forward to seeing Mom, not the drive though. I'll try to post some pictures.

Knitting and Crocheting at the Glebe today
October 2, 2013
Wow the gym was busy this morning, I made the mistake of walking in at 6 am and saying how quiet it was. Well I think it opened the flood gates, cause there was people that even the owner didn't know. I saw how busy it was so I only did 35 minutes today and then got off so others could use the machine. I went into the gym and did some exercises to finish off my day along with some stretching. I will do plenty of walking this morning at the Glebe Center. I will try to get another walk in after dinner.
we were hoping to get up the Christmas lights outside this weekend, we are having a warm fall, but now its calling for rain, will have to see how that pans out. I am heading down to see Mom for a couple of days.
I found a neat calculator today, I thought I would share it with you.

Where is our fall
October 1, 2013
Wow this year is 3/4 of the way gone, hard to believe. It has been so warm at nights, it only got down to 17c last night, I had to give in and turn on the air conditioning when I came home from the gym. I did my weight routine this morning and I used a small pillow to lie on when I do leg curls, I was finding the lay down area to hard on my chest, my ribs were really painful last week.
I am working on a painting this morning and have my Art class this afternoon.
I have many ideas for my next paintings. I am excited as I can have them done in time for presents for Christmas. I have been giving it a lot of thought, Christmas that is, we have company coming in December from Australia and they leave on the 23 of December for New York City. So I need to make sure I am organized well ahead of time.
