Ive got some 'kinda' good news girls! I have a job interview tomorrow and its for a full time position!! 
Im really unsure on how to feel about this..i really only wanted to work part time somewhere The position is from m-f, 8-5 and i would be a dispatch for a heating and air company(easy right?)
DH leaves the house for his job around 5:20,so that gives me time to get home. There are a couple things bother me 1) I would have to find someone to sit with the kids on Thursdays & Fridays until DH woke up around 2ish. I'm just not sure about that,2) i haven't worked full time is 11 yrs...can i handle it? and
Im having mixed emotions...but we could really use the extra money
what do you guys think? Please give me your opinions...im i being a big baby right now?
oh and I did manage to get my workout in this morning

Amelia-I think you should do whatever your heart tells you to do. Is your mom close enough she could watch the kids for a few hours until DH wakes up?

My heart is telling to go for it and just see how things go...besides,im jumping the gun here, I don't actually have the job yet
. My mom works full time so thats out of the question, but i was talking to my DH and he said that he could handle them on thursday and friday mornings. Im not sure how he can while he's sleeping? I completely forgot about my brother who lives with my dad,he can watch them and would jump at the chance to make extra money..and he's good with them. whew, that was a long explanation,lol sorry

Good luck Amelia and Roxie with your challenges. Just get a work out in is a challenge for me, LOL. I'm doing better. Didn't get one in yesterday , but I did STS legs this morning.
Amelia, good luck with the interview. Just follow your instincts and you'll figure out what works for you.

well, i got the dog walk in but not MM...im just mentally exhausted,i don't want to think right now
The interview went well I think, it lasted over an hour and a half There is a lot of responsibility that goes along with this job,lots of paper work, But I think i can handle it. The owner told me that he didn't think there would be a problem but needed to talk it over with his wife first(guess its 'there' business).I will know tomorrow...
Roxie-wow 6pk, you go girl, enjoy your workouts today!
Jean-Thanks, good job on STS legs today.

Congratulations, Amelia!!!
You'll learn excell quick enough.
I love the challenges you guys set for yourselves. I was doing better at eating until yesterday. I was rearended and pushed into the car in front of me. I wasn't hurt and no real car damage. My nerves were fried and I've been stress eating.
Yesterday morning I did KPC/L&G premix (cardio drills and ankle weight work).
This morning I did 4DS upper body weights doing only 2 rounds of each body part. I had to scoot for my Mammogram.
Okay time to get DS ready for bed and try to watch a little of Idol. I really like Kristyl Bowersox

Morning,
Elaine-so glad to hear you wasn't hurt, i think nerves would be fried too after somthing like that Speaking of...my nerves aren't in very good shape right now...i haven't worked in a very.long.time(full time)
Roxie-Nice job on your walk. Im not having a very good start with my challenge either...will work it out and do great.
Hey to Jean!!!
I stayed up way to late last night with DH We watched The biggest loser(recorded it then watched it)
Today's workout will be yesterdays workout, MM...first i will walk my lab for 30minutes.
I've got to figure out when im going to fit in my workouts. If i do them in the mornings i would have to wake up @ 5, get it started by 5:30 because i get the kids up for school around 6:30,which wouldn't be too bad. BUT,if i workout after work i could get more sleep,i'm also afraid i wouldn't get alot of workouts in that way?....not sure yet? Maybe i could do both

Amelia, CONRATS!!! Good luck with the new job. I'm sure you will figure out what works for you for workouts (morning or night). I would think mornings would be best that way you still have time with the kids in the evenings.
Roxie, hope you are feeling better.
Elaine, glad the wreck wasn't serious and that you weren't hurt. Make sure you check the car out thoroughly because one time i was hit in the bumper and it didn't see any damage so I didn't get insurance info. Well when I got home DH looked at it and all the brackets underneath were broken.
This morning I did Tabata style jump rope for 2 rounds and then ab work. That tabata style is hard.
Hope everyone has a great day.

Good Morning,
I woke up at 4am aching all over don't know what was up with that. Tonite I will either walk the park or go to the fitness center and do the tread climber. Its really windy here again and the temps have cooled down, then I will come home and do KCMs Muscle Definition. I plan on doing some abs from Oxygens Ab edition when the boss goes up to his office.
Jean-you are doing great with your workouts keep it up.
Amelia-if you start getting up in the mornings I will to.
Elaine-how are you feeling today?

Amelia-I have been driving the company van alot the wind has been really horrible gusting 30 to 40 mph and think its just from trying to hang onto it the muscles are just tight. It really would be cool because I don't like to get up but I could get my workout done and then walk in the evenings.
