I am linking up again for the Weekly Run Down with Kim and Deborah.
This was another weird week when it comes to workouts. I was proud of myself for planning out my week and getting a run in before work on Tuesday, only to get my routine derailed again when I had to drive back down to SoCal on Friday to help Jon with his mom (who transitioned back home from the care center earlier this week). So, I do what I always do: pivot, adapt, and do what I can.
Hey, at least I got to walk on the beach again. Oh, and I hit my Streak Day 1600 on Monday. Hooray.

How was your week? Did you have to pivot?

May 19, 2025 at 4:54 amI did pivot this week – visiting my family, so without my bike and leaning hard on the early morning walks. Giving the forecast the side-eye as it’s supposed to be downright cold Wednesday and Thursday mornings. It’s not the SoCal beach, that’s for sure. ;)
I need to look into the Peloton meditations – not a member, but wondering whether I can access any to try them – even temporarily – for free… You seem to get so much from those and the yoga classes. Hm. Ponder, ponder…

May 19, 2025 at 5:11 amUgh, I am so sorry about this continuing drama with Jon’s mom! I’m sure it’s hard on all of you. But as usual, you’re making the best of it. A walk on the beach is never a bad thing!
I also just read your last post- HOORAY for a blogger meetup! I met Caroline earlier this year, and Julie seems like someone I would really like. I wish I had been there with you girls!!!

May 19, 2025 at 3:58 pmLooks like your pivot game is on-point! I hope all is going well with Jon’s mom.

May 19, 2025 at 5:04 pmHaving the ability to pivot without derailing is a skill! Nice job getting your workouts in with a challenging week.

May 20, 2025 at 12:40 amThis must be so energy draining. The back and worth and being flexible. I know you do this all without complaint but it’s draining I am sure.
Glad you could enjoy the beach though.
I hurt my thigh (I think I had some torn muscle) which derailed my work outs. I was just getting back from the fever that knocked me down. And right now the third thing creeps up as I fear I have Covid. Sigh… it’s hard.
You are doing good and better times will come. Hang in there.

May 22, 2025 at 6:29 pmOh rats, we drove down on Friday, we could have given you a ride (if that would have been helpful). I hope she’s getting settled a bit now and you and Jon can spend some time at home together.
