I was tagged by @gerinurse for an SDS! This is my morning face in this nyc heatwave, trying to convince myself that I should go to the gym for fitness AND free A.C. And though this smoothie looks disgusting, I’m living for Goya’s tropical frozen fruit. I’m tagging…. well I guess my two mutuals! @alinasmiles and @fit-loki, hope you guys haven’t done this before. If you have, give us an update! What’s happening right now in your life?

You have very strange dreams. I have “normal weird” dreams like giant toothbrushes chasing me. ��

I DO HAVE SUCH STRANGE DREAMS! LIke, WTF? Lol! I would take giant toothbrushes chasing me. :)

Lol @jonanacoe my husband might kill me if I stock pile anymore stuff for the little ones. ��

They’re soooo good though!

(I just realized you’re one of those people I should be FB friends with, but am not. Weird. We have one another’s home addresses!)

Gorgeous sunset as always. Maybe try a wrist brace for awhile as it just might be overworked.

After thinking about it a while, I realized what last weekend and this had in common was that I was using a power tool  -- last weekend the hedge trimmers and this weekend a sawzall. I’m thinking all that vibration may be what is annoying my wrist. I slept with an ice pack on it, and it feels better today.  I don’t know if a brace would help if its the vibration that hurts it, but I think I have one around here somewhere, I’ll have to find it and see.  Thanks!!

My sister had this horrible thing where she would touch the end of her nose and it would make her feel as if her head was like a pressure cooker. Pressure/Pain would go away and start all over again the next time she touched her nose. Saw a neurologist who put her on neuroleptic drugs and boom....pain gone. It was crazy. Hope your feeling better ��

That is the strangest thing I have ever heard but I am glad she was able to get it resolved. Thanks!

YOU WILL NOT GET SICK! Sending good vibes. Lots of vitamin C and fluids.

Rest is important! You can do eeeeet! And ginger tea is delicious.

Oh oh oh how about making ginger-lemon juice (if you own a juicer?) Or ginger water/tea? It's good for your immune system ��

Thanks, you guys. I appreciate the good vibes! 

How do you make ginger tea? Do you need actual ginger from the produce section or is it a type of tea in the tea aisle? 

And I have a dentist appt on Monday for a cleaning, which I would hate to go to if I’m sick ...  I hate people who go out in public when they are sick. Let’s just hope I’m NOT sick.

Val you always take the coolest pictures ❤️

Aww, thanks! I took so many, this is just a smidgen of them. :) I love taking pictures. It’s not great for walking speed, but it’s an awesome way to spend the afternoon.

I used to wear 3" heels to wait tables. I have no idea how I managed that ��. The foolishness of youth. I'm glad you managed a good workout after such a sad day. Hugs ��

OH MY GOSH! I can’t imagine that!

Since I’m already 6 feet tall, I don’t wear anything over about 1″ - 2″ heals at the most (I already seem to tower over most people as it is), but my problem is I have snowshoes for feet and wear a size 12.5 , 4W ... not the easiest thing in the world to find. (never in stores, always have to order them) 

In fact, the shoes I wore were size 12s, cos could rarely find anything larger in a woman’s dress shoe. But since I’ve only worn tennis shoes or crocs for the last 15 years since quitting my office job, my feet can’t handle getting squished like that anymore, apparently.  I honestly think I sprained one of my toes, it still hurt to walk today. It feels a little better now, but this morning it was painful. 

Le, sigh. 

Gonna see if I can order something maybe in a sandal-type-dressy shoe that I can wear for stuff like this in the future. I can’t do this again.
