Do you have a Disney favorite you hope will win?

I was pulling for Encanto to win all of their categories, but at least they won one. We were at the theatre seeing CATS, so we didn't get to watch most of the Oscars live, but I pulled up as many clips as I could find that were of interest to us. If we hadn't already had tickets to the theatre, I know DD would have been cosplaying her fave character from Encanto, and we would have had a watch party.

In my last post - I said something about spring being around the corner - well, that's not going so well. It's been off and on winter, and now I have a wonky knee, so my walking was not what I'd hoped. But several days of short walks- 210 minutes brings me to 605/600! I've surprised myself!

 

[sophy1996]

+100 Walking and Pilates

1395/1200

 

[Elizabeth Smith]

[piglet1979]

March 28th -- 60

Total 583/620

I don't think I will hit my goal. I had a plan to hit my goal by the end of today but things at home had different plans. Hopefully I can get some time in tonight.

 

[Bethislucy]

1719/1900 for the month didn't hit my goal this time will try again next month.

 

[PollyannaMom]

45 minutes for me (625/600) and congrats to BethisLucy, piglet1979, Elizabeth Smith, and BonnieF!!


It's been a great month, and I'll check back over the next couple of days for stray minutes.

Yes! I am the April host! I'll be back to post the new thread tomorrow. Stay tuned.

 

[Raya]

Went walking in our new town for an hour and fifteen minutes. We ended up standing around talking to new neighbors at one point so I'm going to count half that time - 37 minutes. Which brings me to 50%, not bad for a month with unexpected health drama, a few new job interviews, and moving! Excited to move on to April. Thanks for being such a great host, PollyannaMom!

[Twilight Sparkle]

30 last minutes - quick obe cardio boxing video and daily upper body challenge (re-read the info and it's 3 weeks instead of 2 - Yay! - More accountability and motivation!!!!)

2520/2000

Thanks for hosting, PollyannaMom!

See you all in the April thread. Heading to the barn today for the first time in two days thanks to all the bad weather we've had. It will be good to really get moving again today.

Congrats on that last minute color change, Raya!!
