Start of Week 3 of DDP YOGA feeling good, already feeling changes in my flexibility and back/knee pain. Long road but I actually dont hate working out with this. Doing 4 days a week right now, up to 5 days in week 5.

Hoping after week 14 that we are able to move into the next program in the track.

Two weeks of DDP Yoga done and dusted, already seeing and feeling a difference. Not able to close a full fist but getting better than its been which is awesome.

Also slowly burning weight, got a new heart rate monitor specific for DDP yoga since Fitbit doesnt connect and its just as accurate.

I am having a hard time not seeing it now... (I mean this as a compliment, awesome character and actress imo)

Day 5(?) of DDP YOGA went through the smaller program for today, still a big help and already seeing things loosen up and do better body wise. Took the pups for a walk around the park later on and got half a mile walking around and only had to stop three times.

Gonna slowly work up to 3/4 a mile.

Day 4 of DDP Yoga and I am loving it, slightly higher intensity today as it was a longer exercise. Really helping to loosen things up and get my body back to moving better.

Without downloading new pictures/ videos where are you mentally

Day 3 of DDP Yoga, not high intensity but still hurt. Doing the chair force program right now and while its not intensive it is still painful and the right spot for me. Loosening up back/knees/feet and feeling good. 12 week program 4 days a week so we shall see in a few weeks how it goes.

Todays DDP Yoga session was easier, I realized I was probably on the wrong path yesterday so switched things up. Today was learning the moves and exercises so calmer, tomorrow starts the rest of the path.

DDP Yoga is no joke, started out on the wrong program so got that adjusted for tomorrow and beyond but I was able to do more of it than I thought although I am sore as hell right now.

Absolutely worth it and looking forward to continuing the program this year.

Sleepy puppy tax. Was a great night and we were only out for like 3 hours. Not worth going out much anymore, its usually expensive and a lot of people.

My daughter's idea of affection is smothering me with kisses and insisting on snuggles all day. Diva (on the left) won't snuggle with me unless she is laying on my chest and Ashur prefers laying on my desk on her blanket, between my keyboard and me, curled up and using my arm as a neck pillow.

I feel attacked by this...

I have a goofy dog that smiles weirdly... Thats it, thats the post... She is too adorable though.

I see your clip of Esme doing the time to get up routine (super cute btw) and I give you Ashur and Diva playing in and on a mesh laundry basket filled with their toys a month or two ago.

Ashur and Diva say Happy Holidays to Millie and the family!
November 27, 2024 at 10:49 PM
This sounds about right honestly.

Snugs is too cute! Ashur and Diva (Ashur on left, Diva on right) prefer their fleece sweaters. We got them the type Snugs had but they tried to take em apart (Barely 5 months old so still in the 'chew on everything' phase)

They get it from their late brother Prince. RIP to the sweet ol boy.
November 15, 2024 at 5:19 AM
They are little sweethearts. My favorite has to be their little coats for walks. This was first time back and they decided to line up for the water bowl and pretty much stole my heart again 😁
November 15, 2024 at 5:17 AM
Ashur and Diva say Hi and that they like the shirt. Its cold so they prefer sweaters themselves.
November 15, 2024 at 5:10 AM
I am more just tired, planning on a shift to living mobile and taking solace in puppy snuggles.

Spent to much of the last several years being angry now just... apathetic? That doesn't sound quite right but still.

Oh, and puppy tax paid also.

You lost your couch, I lost feeling in my arm... Worth it for our little furballs though 😁

Thats a pretty cool surprise, my most recent surprise delivery was this swiss army knife I got from a vendor after a survey.
November 13, 2024 at 3:23 AM
So, first post... Well, how about a picture of our pups lining up for a drink of water in their jackets? Diva in front, Ashur behind waiting patiently.
November 12, 2024 at 4:55 PM
Ashur and Diva want to say hi to Frank!
