Hi ya, girlies! :) :) :)

Didn’t make it over to our thread yesterday…Missed ya's!...Busy times for this Cabber, but life is good!

Angie :: *lol* Yeah, I was thinkin’ of Fat B*stard when I typed that…So how was Cam’s b-day dinner? Where’d you take him? *lol* about the kids putting me in a locker. Now if I were thin enough to FIT in one, that would make my day! :) I was actually out of the classroom again yesterday, finishing up the interview process with the committee. Very cool to be part of that. Afterward, I got together with some girlfriends for CABs and fattening goodies to conceal the abs. Had fun!

Laura :: chuckling at your MIL stories…she sounds like she was a doozy back in the day!…I really hope that stone passes quickly for you…I think it was the pizza that made my stomach revolt.

Di :: glad you got the checkbook balanced…I am usually good about keeping mine, but this month something is off and I can’t figure it out. It says I have more in there than I think I should. How is your face recovering from the peel? Have you ever tried Retin-A Micro? I know that works wonders for some. I feel you on the skin thing, I really do. I had one minor pimple this week – the first one since I finished the Accutane, so I guess it “took.” Amen. I was *miserable* this time last year. I could show you pics of me in Colorado where my face looks like a pizza pie. It is so perplexing because I’d never had much acne until my late 20s. I started to have breakouts at that point, but last year is when it really went into overdrive and something had to be done…The shower itself was smooth, but the money collection is where I was worried…we were majorly short as of the day before and thought we were going to have to serve cake to everyone but only pizza to those who paid…The kids, however, came through in a big way (at the last minute, of course) and all was fine.

Wendy :: have you talked to management about the TM problem? That’s probably the most popular machine – they should really be concerned about keeping those running. Way to be flexible and not blow off your w/out altogether!

This morning I have class, so my workout will be later. Cardio (a run if it's nice or maybe the EXT) plus 4DS u/b weights (either the CST premix or Ba&Bi).

Enjoy your Saturday!!

PS...A little fun...guess the song:

Good Morning Cabbers!

Cathy: I'll take a stab at it! The first one: Have a holly jolly Christmas (I don't know if that's actually the TITLE though. LOL)The second one is Away in a manger. The third is Grandma got run over by a Reindeer!....Did I do good? :+ :7 :+
So how was your night last night? Didn't you go out after work? Was it happy hour? :9 }(
I read your post to Diane about your skin and the Accutane, etc. I have never seen you with a break out or even a single pimple. IMO you have beautiful skin. It's hard to imagine that that kind of thing would even be an issue for you. So you have completed your round of Accutane. Is that supposed to now prevent your skin from fierce break outs for so many months or years to come after you stop taking it or something?
HEY! When will it be 6 months that you've been off the med? TATTOO TIME!!!!}( }( }( You thought I'd forget, didn't ya!? LOL
I thought of complaining to corporate about the treadmill issues. Perhaps I will write a letter...

I am actually up early. I am going shopping with my mom and have to be at her place at 9:30. We didn't get a visit in during the week so this is it. I want to be home in time to nap Joey at home so that I can get things done around here while he sleeps.

The only work out I have to do all weekend is one yoga session! YAY! Y'day's work out wore me out so I am going to be lovin' this rest. I tackled and completed S&A w/push/pullups, ARX and then ITread 4/60 mins (5.46 miles). I was EXHAUSTED by the time the run was done. Awesome day of work outs though for a plan that had gotten botched up early!:)

K, enough babbling...I'll be back in a bit!

Hey, Wendy! Yeah, you got 'em right. :) I cracked up at the last one. My cousins' grandmother (now deceased) used to get *so* pissed at that song...I did go out after work...We wound up going to our one friend's house...I started the Accutane in Jan. 06 and finished up in August after a wicked bout with cystic acne last fall. I mean, I really didn't have SEVERE, severe acne that you see on the Proactiv commercials, but it was bad enough for me to do something about it. (I will post one of those Colorado pics later and show you what I mean.) I was on the Accu a little longer than is typical because we kept my dosage lower. Treatment doesn't work for everyone, but for many people, it does eliminate breakouts for good or at least limit them to occasional, minor occurrences. Some people, though, aren't as lucky and have to go for another round at some point. Thank you for the compliment!!!...When I met you and Shelly in June, my skin had cleared up by that point. Luckily, I noticed improvement relatively quickly. I have NOT forgotten about the tattoo. :) I am OK to get the lasik now (although I've decided not to spring for it for awhile) but tattooing and waxing can't happen before February...Enjoy shopping with mom today...That was some killer workout yesterday!!!

Hi Ladies,

I ended up doing GS Legs and Absolute Kickboxing yesterday. It felt great to get in a nice long workout.:) I'm thinking of using the GS upper body w/o's today and tomorrow along with a cardio. I'm playing it by ear though.

I never did get my christmas cards ready, but hopefully I'll get that taken care of this weekend. My nephew callled and wants me watch the kiddo's today. Sakeia is only 3 and needs lots of attention, I'm sure with Jerod around we'll keep him occupied.

Cathy-you are so creative. Love the Christmas song-pics!!! My skin isn't terrible all the time, but I do have some recurring acne on my cheeks that never seems to clear up completely. Just as soon as it starts looking better, I can feel and see a new cyst appearing. The worst part is the red marks that never seem to go away. The micro peel takes care of those. FYI-the last time I had too much money in my account it was because my house payment hadn't cleared!

Wendy-Glad to hear you were able to manage all your w/o yesterday afterall. You should definitely let them know about the broken TM's. Maybe you can ask when they will be repaired. It's too expensive to pay for a gym membership if the equipment you want to use is broken.

Angie-How was dinner with Cam? Where did he want to go? I'm a huge baker too, but I've had to cut back a lot over the past few years. I simply cannot control my food intake and am trying to watch what the family eats as well. Don't get me wrong, I get my fix by making trays of treats and giving them to our friends to share with their families. I also make one for my brother to share with his family.

Laura-hope you have great and pain free weekend! Have fun shopping.

Diana

Di :: helluva combo there yesterday!...What a cool name for your great nephew...I have to admit, I didn't come up the song-smiley game...They are from the www.millan.net site I like to use... :)

I wanted to post some before/during/after Accutane shots, but I seem to have trouble uploading *clear* photos. Not sure why that happens!

Edited to try again...still not working. Now it's teeny tiny! DOH!
 
RE: CABs n' ABS n' slabs of Angie's candy, plz! Saturd...

I wound up doing 4DS Ba & Bi premix…BOSU Total Body w/out Abs only…wall squats (1 min both legs, 30 seconds one-legged, then 1:15 both legs, and 20 seconds one-legged)…and 20 min on the EXT @ a 10 degree incline.

Edited: Finally fig'd out the pics...see below...

OK, I think I fig'd it out...ACK! This is scary up close!!

This is Feb. 2007, a month after I started treatment. It may be hard to tell, but my skin was pretty clear already by this point.

This was taken last month (with my fake-me-out tan :)), 3 months after treatment concluded.

Maybe it will appear crisper on your screens than it is showing on mine, but it is the best I can do.

I also want to add the top pic was taken after a day of skiing, so I look kinda red and greasy.
