Non Scale Victories This Week
During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses. I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses. My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights. Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through. On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower. I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

Same boat as you obviously but I am so ready for those more crisp fall mornings and I hope we get a nice long fall for a change.
ReplyDeleteStill in the 80s here, I'm a bit miffed as i already closed the pool. I'm a summer girl and feel like I got jipped this year because it rain the entire month of June and was balls hot July and August was like spring. If I hadn't closed my pool I be happy right now. The only thing I've done is put my Scarecrow on my front door. I have been able to have a few bonfires on a few cooler evenings. Have a great day! I've always wondered what state you live in?
ReplyDeletelol Dawn - balls hot. That pretty much sums up the temps here where I am too. I'm looking forward to a "cold front" of mid 80s for this weekend, other than that we've still been in the mid-upper 90s.
ReplyDeleteI don't do much with seasonal decorations because I don't have the knack for it, and I hate the put it all away part. I have a Halloween welcome mat, and a fall/harvest themed door hanger and that's about it. I'll probably put those out this weekend. I love when I go places that all are decorated for fall, but I just don't have that gene.
I am not happy with the humidity this week. Unacceptable! LOL I have mini hot flashes as it is, so this week does not bode well for me. It's supposed to be 73 or 75 on Monday I think I saw, but we'll see if that actually comes to fruition. I have no decorating done other than I have mum planters on my front porch that I really like. The containers are very fall-ish, so now we just need the blooms to open (and not burn to a crisp).
ReplyDeleteWell, this week as been cool(er) and started feeling like fall. So I got my mums and did a little porch decoration with a small scarecrow. But now it's supposed to jump back up into the 80's this weekend into next week. Ugh. I love fall!!
ReplyDeleteWe are having a break from the heat right now. Only in the mid 80s and overnight temps are low 60s. So, no. No sign of fall. I'm afraid it's going to jump too quick from fall to winter to get anything done but I have a punch list and am ready to decorate as soon as Halloween rolls around.
ReplyDeleteYesterday was 90, today its 75. Fall in the south, it comes and goes.
