Even her therapist told her that exercising was the next goal for Teri to work for, and Teri said if her test came back bad...that would be all the incentive she needed. So on Friday, she took Disco out in the stroller (he was handy...the rest of us were napping) and she walked 4 miles.
Then on Saturday, we had a visitor! Our friend, Carol of Coffee, Cats n' Yarn. She and Teri talked and talked while Teri straightened up the messy kitchen, while we got some extra attention!
Today, we are home alone, and Teri is taking the train up to Connecticut to visit Simba and Sadie and their humans. They were both born at our house, and Teri hasn't seen them since they left home for their new home...so this will be a good visit! And she won't be so lonely since she will have them to cuddle and play with...
Our regular petsitter is about to have a baby herself, so we will have a new one this time...but she comes highly recommended! She is the vet tech at the cat hospital where Teri works and Teri hired her and we know Teri has good judgement! Well, except when it comes to exercising and taking her vitamins!
We also have a couple of guests at our house too! We haven't seen them yet, but we know they are behind the door to OUR guest bedroom. They were born at our house too, and you might remember them from some pix in past posts.
Their humans are on vacation so they are staying at our B & B for a couple of weeks! Remember Jasper and Clover? They are Coco's kids, from the litter that was all named after flowers. Clover's name stuck, and Teri would have to look in the baby book, but she thinks Jasper used to be called Dandelion, like the weed, hahameow!
They arrived last Sunday and will stay with us until November 12th and Teri promised their humans to take a lot of photos of them during their stay with us...kinda like 'summer vacation' pix!
Well, that's all the news for now. Teri is going to try and get to some more 'blog hopping' in now!
summer camp...what fun!!! We hope the kids have a good time. You guys need to get Teri in line...
ReplyDeleteTERI!!! Keep up with those weight-bearing exercises, they are the best thing you can do!!! Okay, lecture over, we hope you have a fun time in Connecticut :-)
ReplyDeleteThat Woman say's if she lived near you, both of you would be walkin every day! She LOVES to walk but not so much by herself. And since NONE of us would deign to be in a baby stroller she's on her own.
ReplyDeleteOf course, you could send Mr. D here for a visit, but there's NO guarantee that when she wanted to walk he wouldn't be er...previously indisposed... *wink*
She is jealous of Carol having Mr. D's porkchop up close adn personal!
I shall attempt to jump start the TARDIS so I can visit my beloved in private. 'When the Cat's away...' right?
MOL

ReplyDeleteOsteoporosis runs in my human's family on her mother's side, so she takes calcium (plus D plus magnesium) and exercises nearly every day. She walks 5K (3.1 miles) two or three times a week (she hopes to get under 40 minutes soon, then she will think about running it!), does cardio dance another couple of times a week, and Pilates or weight training the other days! Can you tell she is a little bit on the ambitious side? Or maybe she just really, really does not want osteoporosis!
ReplyDeleteThere's a lot going on at your house this Thursday! We think walking in a stroller sounds like fun but we'd probably be scairt! Good job on Teri walking so much! Hope she has a fun trip to see Sadie and Simba!
ReplyDeleteYay fur the Mom takin her supplements and exercisin! Mom is jellus of Disco restin his ham on Carol. She wishes it was her cheek and his ham. MOL!
ReplyDeleteLove the picture of Disco sitting on Carol. That is too cute.
ReplyDeleteWe sure hope that Tom tom will use the little house you fixed for him. I bet he will when it gets good and cold.
I need to do that walking too but it hurts way too much. But walking is really good for you.
Hope the trip to see the kitties went well. Take care.
Well it sounds as though your plate is full with visitors and visits! Fun!! We are not going to "lecture" you about food and exercise etc.'cause LP sucks at all of it:P
ReplyDeleteBut do take care of yourself :)
the critters in The Cottage xo
We certainly do remember Jasper and Clover. How lovely to have them back to stay :)
ReplyDeleteWe bet that iffen Teri got down on the floor an skitterred around playin toytoss with you guys (like ours does), that would be GREAT exercize!
ReplyDeleteWe're exercising too - at least, the humans are and the cats are snoopervising. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteWe also hope Tom Tom will use the house to keep warm. Great that Teri has been walking and Disco got in a great stroll too!
