Today I am grateful for friends!
Better than yesterday, coughing less, still blowing my nose. Depending on how I feel when I wake up tomorrow, I'll go to the gym but won't overdo.
Keeping up on the presidential campaigns in the US. Mailed in my absentee ballot a couple of weeks ago. I'll be staying up all night election night to watch the returns. I'd rather just stay up than to get up in the middle of night to watch. Needless to say, there will be snacking and alcohol!

Today I am grateful for having enough energy to do a fairly decent workout!
I'm not dragging nearly as much as I was but just can't get my lungs cleared so still coughing. Also either runny nose or congestion. So I don't think the gym is a good idea yet. I was able to workout at home today, not quite the full strength workout but close.
I can attest that the traditional treatment for a chesty cough does work fairly well - lemon, whisky, honey and boiling water.

Today I am grateful that I'm finally getting better.
Thanks for all your well-wishes during my whining.
Clean eating today. Will do my strength training this afternoon and some time on my exercise bike. Will go the gym tomorrow and see what I can do. Will not even try spin class Thursday! I'd swear my glutes are heading south again. 
I'll browse the blogs today and catch up on how you all are doing.

Still have a cold after 9 days although it's much better. No exercise, won't even mention what I've been eating and drinking. Our friends went back home yesterday. My husband went with them into town every day to enjoy the Gaelic music and festival. I just couldn't do it but did manage to eat out with them Friday night. My husband now has the cold though.
The scale says I'm 130.4 but I'm wondering if that's because all my muscles have dissolved?! 
J/K.
Healthy eating today, but that's because all the junk has been eaten! I don't know if I can manage the gym tomorrow as I'm still coughing and blowing my nose, but I do need to go grocery shopping. I will at least do my strength training at home.

Ugh. Coughing coughing coughing.
No gym again. Really hard to workout when you're blowing your nose and coughing non-stop.
Taking care of myself but hard to get good sleep when I wake myself up coughing. House is clean. Friends arrive in the morning. Just finished making brownies and they smell wonderful. My husband who is most definitely not a sweets eater thinks the smell is awful. What a weirdo!
Picked up some strawberries and raspberries but it will probably be the last time this season. The price is going up, up, up.

Get better soon my friend <3
Today I am grateful for lemon tea.
Cough, sniff, raw throat.
No workouts but I've been getting ready for our guests. Guest room is ready. Baked oatmeal raisin cookies yesterday and froze them (except for the 2 I ate).
Today I'll finish housework, then rest. Might attempt to do some strength training, can at least do the 7 min arm video routine. Need to pick up a few things at the store tomorrow but not sure if I'll stop into the gym.
Really hope I don't give my cold to the female half of the couple as she's here to sing!

Ugh. Sore throat! Could barely speak when I woke up (which my hubby enjoyed!) Felt it coming on yesterday. Wouldn't be so bad except we have guests coming Tuesday and staying until Saturday! Not going to the gym this morning. Just going to get some laundry done and otherwise stay on the sofa with a big pot of lemon tea and tons of diluted juice.
Planning to do my strength routines tomorrow and maybe some time on my exercise bike. Got too much to do before guests come! Housework, bake oatmeal/raisin cookies, bake French bread, bake brownies, make pasta sauce..... ack!!
Hope you all have an amazing weekend!

Today I am grateful for the amazing historical sites all around me!
Skipped spin bike class today to do a tour of a church with a long history down our road. I've lived here 12 years and never did a tour, just wandered around taking pics. Didn't bring my camera today and wish I had. They had the most amazing stained glass windows - unlike any I've seen. A bit of history: http://www.argyllmausoleum.org/index.asp?pageid=347039
This is a pic I took last year. The ruin is from the 12th century, but some type of church/monastery/burial ground has been on this site since the 8th century. I love this country!!
Eating today...hmm... well after my tour of the church I went into town for lunch and grocery shopping. Had a bacon roll and hot chocolate. Then when I went shopping some chocolate-covered ginger biscuits jumped into my trolley. I love them and haven't had them for years.
Guest next week and I've bought a brownie mix, low fat ice cream, trail mix.

Thanks for sharing the pic!
Today I am very grateful for sunshine and how blue it makes the water!
The 'old lady' swimsuits I bought yesterday. I'll try again in springtime for tankinis.

Clean eating today....that's the plan anyway!

Love the photos you posted yesterday too!
I think those are very flattering suits--you look great in them! Good going on your workout too:-)
Today I am grateful for Glasgow stores and restaurants!
Spent the day in Glasgow in a last ditch search for a swimsuit. Very little choice as it's past the end of season. However, I found two! Both are one-piece and were not what I would have chosen if there was a huge variety. But they'll do.They fit although one is a UK 8 and one is a 10 (I think that's a 6 and 8 US). The 8 is a more snug fit, but still okay. There were plenty of bikinis on sale but most didn't have the matching top/bottom. I might post a pic of me in one of the suits tomorrow.
Took some pics with my phone camera. The ferry I take, and a view of our peninsula.
Exercise today....lots of walking! Meals....no comment!
