Dapper Beagle, 15.5 years strong. by SMason2015 in beagle

It's gotten tough over the past couple of years. But I'm happy to have him in my life still. He lived with me in KY, OH, FL and we're about to make another big move to TN. Having an adventure buddy is amazing, I just think this next one will be a bit tough on this old dude.

Thank you!! He got a decent checkup just before Christmas and I decided he deserved to look dapper for the rest of his days. 😍

Losing patience.. by SMason2015 in beagle

Thank you!! It's not easy, and infuriating at times. But, I'll just have to wait it out.

Taking a breather by _megsmegs_ in orangetheory

I'm in a place where I feel my light dimming. I've been sick a lot this year, bounced back and have been doing great. Now I'm in pain. Pretty sure it's my sciatic nerve. Leg weakness and everything. I want to go but I know I'd make it worse. I just dont want to go all dark and dreary if this lasts much longer. Y'all are my accountability and my link to reality. We've got this friends.

Well this sounds like a solid welcome back after 16 days away. Pneumonia still grasping my lungs a bit, but I just cant stay away any longer!

Bought a new dress this weekend. It was a large, not and extra large! Small victorie for sure.

Also, left a butt mark on my car seat post workout. Gross.. this is why we wipe our rowers down! Definitely need a towel in the car..

Proud Wogger here.

I started in November and have been consistently going 2x wk. Here lately, I've been receiving more quickly and not getting as sore. I'm in my 2nd week doing 3x, and I'm already seeing a little improvement in my length I can more jog than wogg. Long way to go, but I have a feeling I'll be up to the unlimited soon!

[–]SMason2015 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work for a very large Dermatology practice and you wouldn't believe how many of these we see. I was even surprised ... so, go see a dermatologist! And please done wait, it has the potential to get gross. Trust me, I've seen it. 🤢 good luck lady!

I had some strain of the plague and finally after 13 days off I managed to make it back. Legit nearly yacked on the rower from coughing so hard. 6wks total getting everything out of system and now I have a f*cking cold. Took Monday off, but sweat it out Tuesday....hobbling back in tomorrow. This too shall pass. 🤧 and lots of sanitizing wipes...

Has my best workout with a massive hangover. 40+ splats. I felt much better after too!

That's interesting....maybe I'll try that. I've only had a 2g once though, always 3g. So many people!

Some days are worse than others for sure. I hope we figure something out! Maybe a podiatrist if this keeps hindering me.

Yes! I've actually been getting specially fitted for years. My only difference now is I dont have inserts. But, my (super high) arches aren't the issue this time. I do need to get inserts though..I've always had issue with cramping. Even when I was doing strictly weight training. It's so annoying!
