Hi all,

I've decided to give away Sculpt Sweatfest and I also have Mindy M. Cardio Tool Box. If anyone wants either, just pm me and I'll send them out. I will never do either, they are just not my type.

I'm going to ride my bike today. I'm just waiting for everyone to get up so I can fix breakfast and then I'm leaving. The AC is still not fixed, so I hope that it rains or is cloudy tomorrow. I think that I'll do S&H next week, maybe.

Amy - glad you had a quiet night at work. I've used MM and ME quite a bit lately. MM is probably my favorite upper body, except for PUB. I still think it is the all time best bang for the time spent. Keep up the good work on the diet. I'm trying to improve mine a little, but then it will come down to meal time and I'm tired or it's hot and so I just throw a salad together and say &*%$! I just haven't been able to prepare stuff in advance for daytime meals. It's not unclean, but it could be more strategically planned.

Sandra- I've been doing Cathe, along with a few others for over 20 years. I still haven't found anything else that is consistently done quite so well. I still have lots of premixes to explore to keep me busy. The KM/LM combo sounds perfect for me right now. I think I'll try that next week. Sorry you had a bad night, and I understand the dread of Bootcamp. My body doesn't like to jump right into that high impact any more.

Traci - Enjoy the bay and catch lots of fish. Triceps are the body part that I can work most effectively. I didn't even do anything but dips yesterday because they were still sore from Monday when I did PUB and did supersets of lying extensions and kickbacks. I think that was more effective for me than doing the overhead extensions, which I think that I cheat on just a little. Plus all the yoga works them too.

Jeanette - Enjoy your ride and I'm glad Tillie is doing OK. Tone is the last of the 3 workouts on the Brian Kest power yoga. He really is good at combining moves to increase flexibility. I actually percieve yoga as a workout now. I'm not sure if that is good or bad.

Nicole - Glad your pants are looser. Mine are falling off now and I think that it is the yoga. When is your trip? Are you flying? I love national parks. I hope that you enjoy it. Your back is still bothering you? I'd avoid deadlifts always bend your knees when you go from standing to bent over in yoga. It will put less stress on your back. You can straighten them once you get down.

Wendy - glad to see you are back. Your pictures look great, you must be tiny! I felt achy after painting last weekend and getting off and ont he ladder and stool way too many times to count. It's done though and looks so much better.

Laurie - I don't think that some people ever grow up. I comment frequently that if all people in schools had to do was to teach kids, then things would be so much easier. It's the personalities of the staff that make and compound most problems that could be avoided. I'm sure it it that way everywhere.

Cheryl - Enjoy your run today. There is something about running that I can't get from anything else, trail running that is. I'm done with the road.

Debra - You get the Energizer Bunny of the day award for yesterday. Doesn't it feel good to get lots of stuff done, at least once it's done? When is the big moving date?

Off to clean up some more. The kitchen was a disaster from last night, but it was so hot I just left it. I've gotten realy good at being able to look past massive messes.
