Good Morning, Kaila and Friends. 🤗 :coffee:🌻

It is warm in the house this morning; I woke a bit uncomfortable with the temperature. However, I did get better sleep last night than the night before, so I'll take it. :)

@Jules and @RadishRose, glad you've been getting good sleep the late few nights. :sleep:

@CallMeKate, Holy Crows, those snacks looks amazing! All we need is some good movies and we could have a Saturday afternoon movie day.

@Kaila, good for you for getting your physical therapy done at home. That's what I mean when I talk about you being a strong person. :)

I had a fun thing happen yesterday. I was watching hockey with husband and when bending my arm, saw that my bicep muscle is larger and firmer than when last I noticed. I called my husband's attention, and he caught it before I could point it out. :)

Toning and weights are working! Woot, baby! 🏋️‍♀️ 😁

Hope everyone is feeling good this day.

I had a great sleep last night (Thursday - Friday) too. Actually too much. I set my alarm for 8:25 a.m. just in case. It went off this morning. It wasn’t that many hours, though I know it’ll disrupt tonight’s zzzzs
Very good to hear that. 👍
Thanks for sharing it.🙂
Hopefully it didn't disrupt very much and was overall beneficial!
 
Hope you all have a nice week-end! Looks like a gray day here so far.

Thank you, katlupe!🙂

It's better today here than the past 2 stormy days, but there are still some persistent dark gray clouds and intermittent showers.

All of the trees and grasses and springtime shrubs and plants, are showing the benefits of the rains!
Leafing out and greening and growing and budding ! Wonderful to take notice of!🤩

I've even seen a few mallard ducks here, recently. 🦆🦆🦆☺️
 
Good morning and afternoon, 😄@Medusa


Isn't that great, that the toning and strengthening are working. Even to that point of being Noticeably so.
One of the rewards for your efforts!🤩
Thank you, @Kaila. You are so supportive to everyone here and thoughtful in your responses. 🤗

I appreciate your comment; I really am thrilled with my progress and was dying to share. Since yesterday, I've told my husband, my son, my boyfriend, my best friend and now SF. LOL

Okay, I'm good. I'm shutting up about it now. :ROFLMAO:

Please keep us up to date on your progress @Medusa . You're an inspiration.

Same weather here @Kaila and @katlupe. Starts sunny, then clouds roll in. Had to put my heat on yesterday!

Frozen eggplant parm for tonight, hope I can get it out of the oven w/o much pain.

How is dh doing?

No, I;m not ready to cut off my radishes yet. 😀

Have a fun day, friends

🤣😂🤣😄
Well it's understandable I guess.
Even though they've grown in a lot. 🙃😊😄😂

The eggplant sounds excellent. I know what you mean about trying various body positions though!
I hope that goes easily. 🥰

@RadishRose, how do you keep the eggplant from getting mushy? I tried eggplant lasagna recently and it turned into spaghetti sauce. Seriously, we used it as sauce.

This one is frozen Medusa and it comes out pretty well but it's not a lasagne

When I make my own I don't put too much sauce with it. just a little on the bottom of the pan and a little on top of each section. It shouldn't be hard, it's better when it's soft. But I've never had it turn mushy.

Yes, looking back, I think we did use quite a lot of sauce. I think I'll buy frozen if we ever have it again. Eggplant prep is a pain.
 
Good Morning, Kaila and Friends. 🤗 :coffee:🌻

I am up a bit early this morning. Not a lot going on today, just walks with the dog, exercises, general house things.
Husband is working a mid-shift today so I'll get him back early and we can catch the hockey game. 🏒

As it is Sunday, Lucius (my Boxer) and I'll will be able to walk in the business area. That will provide him new things to smell. :)

Hope everyone is feeling good this Sunday morning.

Good morning, everyone.
It took me much longer to get to sleep last night, than I'd like,
But I managed to snooze in a little, this morning. 😊🫠☺️

Going to get up now and get thru a few morning routines and medical motions for self and dh,;

Hoping then afterwards to try to get both of us outdoors. We've gotten a few plants And would enjoy if we could get even just one into the ground.

Both of us need to modify how we do anything and how much or little we do, and when we attempt to do anything,

but we hope at our best moments and on a day like today when there's no appointments, to do a little of small tasks in our garden.
It's an activity that we both loved in the past, and of course it's rewarding to watch anything grow!
 
There are some lingering dark clouds outdoors, that might sprinkle but mostly the series of rainy chilly days is finally finished here.

Is it past your areas now too, for now?
 
@Medusa
Which hockey team are you rooting for?

I don't generally watch hockey but i could root for your team 😁🤣☺️
sometimes I watch basketball, or baseball.

We're forecasted to have rain for a few hours, later today. It helps the flowers grow 🌻🥀🌹🌷
