EXERCISE CHALLENGE DECEMBER WEEK 2

Wow....well what you are lacking this week, you certainly made up for last week. 

Do you have power yet?  We just got it back last night. 

Still at work, but don't think it's back on yet.  We have been on generator since Friday early, early morning.  Now with the snow don't know when we will be getting it back.

Wow that really stinks.....trust New England...If you don't like the weather - wait a minute!

Ice storm thursday - Friday...60 degree weather - and now snow!!!

That ice storm/loss of power really cramped my style.  I started out strong last week, but haven't done anything since Friday.  So my total so far for the month is 195 minutes.  I've already given up trying to reach my goal, but I have not given up just trying to get to the gym!!!

BTW, got our power at 4:40 p.m. last night.  I'm hoping that those of you still left in the dark will get your power back asap! 

Hi Kathy,

I think the storm really cramped a lot of people's plans for exercise, Christmas and everything else.  I know I am really behind now on everything.  Having a small Christmas with friends Saturday, and my house is a disaster.  I think that anytime you can give to exercise will be a bonus this month.

I am so glad you got your power back.  We did also.  What a terrific feeling. 

I have to say that losing our power for 5 days sure put things in perspective for me though.  Made me think about all the people who NEVER have a warm home to go to.  Being homeless makes looking for a warm bed and a warm meal a daily reality for them.  I like to say that I don't take my blessings for granted, but this sure made me realize just how blessed I am!

I know what you mean.  I was truly blessed to be able to heat my home and cook.  We were never without heat, and I realized on the second day that we were indeed very fortunate. 

ok. i have no idea what my minutes are. i don't think i will make goal this month. between loss of power, christmas stuff... and not keeping track well....

but i have worked out everyday this week so far. but the eliptical doesn't add up much. i need to up my time on that thing...plus i have been doing weight training again too....
i'll have to really put some thiought into what my minutes are.

i guess i can count in all the huffing and puffing i have been doing for the clean up out side of my home huh?.what a mess

LOL...that is the longest "I don't know" answer ever

Well, I got power back around 9 am Wednesday morning -- despite the crappy weather.
And on that note  -- more snow on Friday, Sunday and Christmas Eve or so I am told.
Friday and Sunday are suppose to be significant accumulation -- picture mountains of snow and more loss of power>  Oh well, as you said welcome to winter in New England.

I should be at meeting on Monday depending on the weather.

Best of luck to all
