11 January - What I'm Thankful for Today

Today was a good day. It got a bit away from me. I have more notifications than I've had in a very long time and with everything going on, I'm struggling to keep up with them. That's a good thing. So, today I'm thankful for the time I spent in the pool this morning. It was a bit colder than usual, but it was what they say the temp will be - 88 degrees. Usually, it's a little warmer than that. The hot tub was 101 and felt awesome! I got 45 minutes in the pool and 20 minutes in the hot tub. It was time well spent as the gentleman in the hot tub, a real talker, was interesting this morning. I'm thankful for the nap I got this morning. I really needed it after getting little sleep last night. I'm thankful for Bible Study today. It was a very good discussion on Psalm 119. I'm thankful for spending what time I could with you today. I'm still hoping to get the notifications finished before I go to bed. I'm thankful for the exercise group this morning. I still have over 3000 steps to get today. No bike yet. Maybe after prayer tonight. We'll see. Or I might walk the halls. Three times around could get me there. If not the bike, there's always the foot cycle I got from my sister a couple of Christmases ago that always works to get my steps. Okay, so here are yesterday's exercise stats: Swimming - 40 Minutes - .34 Miles, Calories - 379 Walking - 78 Minutes, 7680 Steps, 1.45 Miles, 316.2 Calories Bike - 21.56 Minutes, 5 Miles, 130 Calories, Heart Rate - 116, Speed - 13.7/57 MPH Total Burned Calories - 825.2 Food - Grand total - 1501 Calories Total Calories - 675.8 Okay, that's my day and what I'm thankful for. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. Wishful thinking.

That’s awesome that you can still swim even in the middle of winter. We can do the same thing here in Florida, but our pools are not heated and are outdoors! LOL Yesterday I had the first of two eye surgeries scheduled for this year. I’m thankful that everything went smoothly on this first one, which will now allow me to proceed to the second one.

@just4him I'm just glad they found a solution that restored my eyesight. They never did find the cause.

Yes, I love my indoor heated pool. Are you having cataract surgery? I'm so happy I had mine done a couple of years ago.

@just4him Aww thank you! That's great! I've started on light exercise, but I'm coughing and running on only a little sleep today, so I may skip it, unfortunately.

@tammys85 I've had to skip the pool this week. I bruised my rib last week, so it's messed up and hurting. Hopefully, I'll be back there next week. Every day the pain is less. I'm still doing my walking, so that's good. I hope your cold gets over soon.

I finally decided to take out my sewing machine and I did the small repairs I needed to do to several things. I am thankful I have finished.
