I wanted to skate outside today but the weather had other plans.

I'm sharing this again because I'm so proud of it

I'm sharing this again because I'm so proud of it - and to show a couple of my wipeouts. It's ok to laugh. 😝 I know I sure do, then I get up and try again. 🤷‍♂️

This is part of the reason I'm so sore today. 😂😂😂 I fell about 5 times before I made it up AND down this ramp standing.

I'm also sore because my "relaxing" skate around the rink turned into a whole-body workout of me absolutely FIGHTING to gain any speed. I definitely want to go again with appropriate wheels on and see how that goes.

Anyway, if you need me I'll be where I've been all day - on the couch resting this body. It's earned a break.

I went to a skating rink tonight...

with my outdoor wheels on. 😂😂😂

I did not realize the extent to which soft wheels would slow me down. I won't be making that mistake again. My gosh - I got a workout. I was drenched in sweat doing my literal best to catch up with Vanessa. It didn't happen even once. 😂😂😂

Good times, though. 😁😁😁

Check it out! I made it over a ramp! I'm so excited. It was a great day. ❤️

We made up for lost time on chores yesterday, so...

We made up for lost time on chores yesterday, so I was skating today no matter what. And OMG, it was the best skate I've had yet!

Today was my first time going to the park alone. Shaun usually skates with me to be supportive but I don't really need that. 😂 If I want to do something there's not a lot that will stop me. I'm not complaining about his sweetness, though. 💕 He's the best husbang and I'm so lucky. ❤️

There were a few skateboarders there at first but they were practicing on a big ramp so we were out of each other's way. Then they left and it was just me and my ear buds. Holy shit, y'all. For whatever reason I decided to see how fast I could go. It probably wasn't anything to more experienced skaters but I felt like I was flying. I LOVED IT.

So, I feel that in my abs and my thighs already. I'm not mad at it. I honestly can't believe this is exercise that I am loving so much. It's crazy. I want to do it all the time.

Anyway, that's my update for the day. I'm off to have dinner and maybe do my nails. My polish is chipping and that just won't do.

❤️❤️❤️

Booster arm is only mildly sore to the touch, but...

Big Shock: I fell asleep after I sat down on the couch. 😂

Woke up to my 18-lb kitty Balthazar creeping across my booster arm so he could be my little spoon. 😫

Then he sneezed in my face. Like, SO up close, directly on my lips. 🤮

I'm, uh, going to brush my teeth and get in my bed. I'm just done with this day. Goodnight, friends. 😴
