Walked Georgy five miles and now I'm going to play 18-holes of golf. I usually walk the course but will take a cart this afternoon. It's Duff and Dine.....18 holes of golf followed by dinner.

I'm so bummed! As I mentioned on another thread, I fell while walking when I was out on Monday. I had hoped to be well by now, but my hip and knee are just too swollen to walk. I tried today, and didn't get half a mile.

I did download a chair aerobics program online the other day, so I've been doing that. It gives me a good workout, but I can't go for as long as I'd like, as my arms just aren't strong enough. It's definitely spurred me to start doing some weight-lifting with my arms.

I'm Done, I'm Done with WonderHorse

I have a spring horse we bought for my son (he's now 44) and I have it cut in half lengthwise, with the intention of having the two halves face each other, mounted on my board fence. I intend to fill the cavity with spray foam insulation, so there's no place for hornets to nest. What kind of paint should I use? Is there a primer that I should use? This horse is hard plastic and has been through a raft of children and still looks pretty good, so I'd say it's sturdy. My house is federal blue with yellow trim, so I want to have one horse blue with yellow and the other yellow with blue. Does that sound dumb? So far, this is just in the planning stages, and I don't find anything else in the Garden Junk forum exactly like what I've got in mind. I'd love suggestions....

OT...I'm Back...I'm Tired...But Happy My Decorating Is All Done!

Wow Jane, I am tired just reading about what all you did! Sounds like a wonderful time and lots of work and effort on your part. What a large group to entertain! So nice that your DH helps you with the decorating. Mine does not help with the inside at all. I carry everything up from the basement including the trees, all the boxes, ladders, etc. The only thing he does outside is put a blow mold Santa on our mailbox, although this year, he did run an extension cord from the backyard for some of the lights as they kept tripping the breaker this year! Again, getting everything down out of the rafters, off of the shelves, and put up is up to me! Sorry, I just needed to vent a little. I get a bit envious when I hear of other DH's that help with decorating. Anyway, looking forward to your pix. TFS, Candy

This is why I love this site -- you all help when we need it and then say we did great! The wall color is Benjamin Moore Aura Affinty #500. It's a greenish gray that plays off the slate that is on the floor of the Florida Room next to the kitchen and throughout the house in hearths and bathrooms.

carree, the Hirsch tile is gorgeous, but waaaaay out of my price range. I'm going to post a new thread for BS help. I'm finally back with some more details and hopefully some better photos. We just got the new NXR installed and a few last minute details finished. We made our first "real" meal in the oven tonight! Whooppeee-- feels like a real kitchen now. For those who asked about the NXR, I will try to post in the appliance forum, but the first one arrived with damage (ordered from Costco). After trying to get it repaired with warranty company, we opted to just return it and get another one. Smart move... should have just done that from the start. Anyway, the 2nd one is the charm and it works well. I'm posting a few new photos just because I'm embarrassed by how blurry the first ones are. Maybe I should edit the original post? I posted the insides of my drawers in another thread. As for the MO shelf, it looks nice when it's closed and seemed good when it was planned, but not sure that I would do that again. It's hard to open the cabinet next to it if it's open and it's just a PITA to open and close it. We are not big MO users, but our kitty seems to insist on having his food heated for exactly 8 seconds! Thanks again for the help and BS suggestions.

joann, I have personal 8 lb weights that I use in my condo.

My gym trainer got me started so I know how to use them at home.

Good luck!

We have Silver Sneakers, and if some want they can use chairs.

First took the dogs for three miles, then gardened for 5 hours (oh, my aching sunburned back!) then went to the health club and did the machine thingy for 25 minutes, now just took the dogs for a short walk. I think I deserve a glass of wine! But at least I got my vegetable garden in. Joanne, sorry to hear about your fall. Hope you get back of your feet soon.
