Guest guest Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 hi there - i forgot to tell you that i have been busy painting the house (interior). i had the primer on and got the ceiling and walls done by fitting in 30 mins here and there but i would be doing this project all summer if i kept on that way. so i spent all day saturday and sunday painting wainscotting, cabinets and trim. i considered this my workout for those 2 days, which sounds kind of wimpy, but actually it was good for the shoulders, and going up and down the ladder repeatedly was good for the buns. also lots of squatting and reaching. cleanup of the new part of the house is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon and i hope to have the furniture in that area by the end of the week. my reward for the hard work is using part of it for my office space today was my usual day for shopping and errands, but i managed to do walk/run intervals with chinook for 50 mins this evening. i hadnt planned on running, but it was getting dark and i wanted to get home because i didnt have a flashlight (no streetlights out in the country, of course) and there was a bunch of bats swooping over my head...LOL also animals (cats, racoons, skunks?) in the long weeds alongside the roads at night distract chinook and running with him can make him pay more attention to heeling. as for tomorrow, i have my alarm clock set and am promising myself that i will not hit the snooze button or turn it off entirely! i really want to do a video workout tomorrow morning... havent picked out which one yet though. :*carolyn.

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Painting is NOT wimpy! It's a good workout. And, boy, nothing like some wild animals rustling around the dark forest to get you moving! Yikes. LOL You are a brave woman, Carolyn. -----Original Message----- From: exercisevideos i considered this my workout for those 2 days, which sounds kind of wimpy, but actually it was good for the shoulders, and going up and down the ladder repeatedly was good for the buns. also lots of squatting and reaching. e i didnt have a flashlight (no streetlights out in the country, of course) and there was a bunch of bats swooping over my head...LOL also animals (cats, racoons, skunks?) in the long weeds alongside the roads at night distract chinook and running with him can make him pay more attention to heeling.
