melissatwa's Journal, 12 Jun 21

I wish I could also share the fragrance of this bouquet. Even though many of my bushes have yet to recover and bloom from their encounter with bud devouring deer, eight are doing nicely! My eating is not great. Working is keeping me from working out many days. I have the time, but my energy levels get so depleted. I had a nice 10 mile, brisk walk this week, so that felt really good! I am counting my blessings, and my friends here are such a blessing! I hope you have a great weekend!

Shrewdness, my hubby wanted to plant tomatoes "wirh me." I don't like tomatoes, but I was game to help. Guess who lost interest in their care but was still enjoying the fruits of my labor? 😁 I'd rather work on my flowers even though it is my soul they feed! Thank you, erika!

Mermee, thank you for asking. I'm still not able to run, but I don't have constant pain for no good reason now! I can walk and not be bothered and I squats and deadlifts are coming back... Slowly. 😁 Thank you Jenny and lISfifty, I do think I need to drink more at work. For one job I am talking constantly and get so dried out! That is a good reminder. I often just "hydrate" when I get home.

Dearest Shir!! ❤️ Thank you for your encouragement to post my flowers. I will keep sending you pictures, but I don't want to burden FS with too many pictures of roses! 😁 I love that you love them with me! Chris, I don't think they are bigger! Haha, they do have lkng stems which allow a big bouquet this time of year. Later in the season, I tend to get more clusters of blooms on shorter stems. We got the fence up in the back, so I am hoping the Deer will find another and easier path through the neighborhood!

And... Nope, the misery bulbs you gave me did not appear. I think I am not good at growing things I don't know! 😁 I am trying for three days a week... But settling for two and.. Sometimes once a week has to be enough. I am not continuing to gain, which is a good thing! I'd sure like to see the arrow dip south a bit in the next weeks. You know!!! We could manage a FS get together again now with covid restrictions eased! We should try! I'm game!

Thank you, keiann! Siegels, you are a rock and always seem to have this journey of fitness perfectly in hand! Thank you for your encouragement. It really means a lot! Thank you, ama78040! I am walking a lot at work and I go for little walks several times a week. They don't seem to add up to much, but I know they are important for mental health!

Thank you, lovely John! I am blessed! Kenna! I wish you could see and smell them! I'm so glad you like roses too. I do walk 2,3,4 miles a few times a week. After times in the past my goal was 40 miles each week, it seems so lame. But, I do know it helps and I don't have time for those longer walks very often now. Those short walks don't seem worth mentioning. But, I know they do help... My brain anyway!

I'm actually glad they didn't grow then... your cheerful garden doesn't need any misery growing in it 😜

My dear Melissa, we can never have too much beauty in our lives, post every day if you like. Glad you're managing short walks when you can. 💜

Oh, Chris, I saw my mistake and knew I would give you delight in finding a way to have fun! Hahaha! 😁 Baileysmomee, thank you! Wifey, I am just grateful I have been able to find beautiful bushes that grow pretty flowers! The rest is just time and attention to what they need. I am glad you like them! Thank you, Shir!!!

Wow. My one rose bush looks like a pauper compared to yours. Very impressive. That's a lot of walking. The only time I've walked 10 miles is in and out of all the casinos on the Las Vegas strip. You have the will and desire, everything will click back into place soon enough. You have the spirit to succeed!
