The last time I lifted weights: 11/17/22. Unfortu The last time I lifted weights: 11/17/22. Unfortunately orthopedist didn't find anything on x-rays so it's off to a diagnostic imaging center for an MRI. I got some anti-inflammatories but the tingling in my arm still hasn't gone away. I'm going to stop lifting for a bit. #dumbbell #november #strengthtraining #resistancetraining #weighttraining #lifttoeat #liftweights #liftingforgains #liftlikeanoob #liftlikeagirl #barbelltraining #aznlifter #fitness #foodiefit #foodiefat #fitnessmotivation #gettingstrong #stillanovice #workouts #workinprogress #fitnessjourney #womenwholift #defygravity #wheresmygainz #over50lifter

"A year in hell". My boy is just not catching a br "A year in hell". My boy is just not catching a break this year. He went in for cataract surgery and is now one week post-op. Normally I would not have gone through with this procedure on a geriatric dog but severe behavior changes warranted that I try to give him the best golden years possible. He has auditory and visual impairment and I'm hoping that the cataract surgery will help relieve a lot of his anxiety. Unfortunately his age is the confounding factor to a speedy recovery. So far no functional vision. #cataracts #cataractsurgery #dogcataracts #cataractsurgeryfordogs #blinddog #seniorpuppy #seniordog #dachshund #doxie #doxiegram #aging #seniordogsofinstagram #dogs #igdogs #dogstagram #instadog #furkid #loveyourseniordog #lovedogs #loveyourdog #lifewithseniorpups #furmomforlife

The most miserable dog in the world. It's been a The most miserable dog in the world. It's been a ruff month for this senior pup. He had to visit the vet several times and an ER vet for an ever swelling ear-hematoma. Decided to go ahead and have his dentals done (one tooth extraction) and several lipomas removed. Unfortunately that meant that he gained a reputation for being a screamer and a complainer with the vet techs. We're going to take him in for pre cataracts surgery evaluation and hope nothing else comes up before then. #cataracts #hematomarepair #lipomaremoval #seniorpuppy #seniordog #dachshund #doxie #doxiegram #aging #seniordogsofinstagram #dogs #igdogs #dogstagram #instadog #furkid #loveyourseniordog #lovedogs #loveyourdog #lifewithseniorpups #adoptdontshop #furmomforlife

Ornamental peppers, basils, hostas, etc., are potted up! Had to bring them indoors last night in case of frost.
