Belinda- I have missed ME. I am putting in my version of FF's get ready for summer rotation, lol. Your rotation looks good too

Okay, I will bbl,

Kristin

'Evening!
Belinda, your rotation sounds good. I'm also having a hard time deciding - think I'll go for a FF's. It has many that I've missed doing while on the sts/lis rotation. Bet the dogs loved the walk.
Kristen, the state hasn't made its bands public; this is the craziest time. Spent the morning learning about SLOs for APPR - lots of new terms. Hve an all-day meeting on them on Wednesday.
Deb, hope everything is okay.
Helene, how are you doing? Are you still doing the Jaime Easton wo?

Hi,

Sorry I've been MIA. Alot going on with work & home. Today was tough but everything is coming together. I am drained physically & emotionally but hopefully after a good nights sleep will feel better. We set my older DS up in a group house with peers who work together towards independent living. I met the people & couldn't believe how much energy & how positive they are.

My plan is to take a spin class tomorrow to jumpstart my routine

Belinda - I'm making a sauce & ravioli for Easter, will you celebrate or is DH in the hospital? I think it's great that you can get help come to your home. FIL has that and it's great.

Kristin - Don't let the tests ruin you vacation, I think the kids may surprise you. How soon do you get results? Great job with your workouts.

Cookie - I have to check out the rotations. I may do something for lower body. I was thinking about you & DD today, starting to hear talking about proms. One of the stores I was at did a fashion show for the prom.

Goodnight

Hey girls,


I changed rotations today. I will do Cathe's LIS rotation.I started with week 1 again, I was following week last week . I don't think it will hurt me to do a low intensity rotation after 8 1/2 month doing STS I just got done with AB. I am doing the 5 day a week rotation instead of 6 day's I like the idea of getting 2 days off I am gonna have to modify on some of the excerises since my wrist is still bordering me. It's gonna be fun doing LIS, I am scared already! If it's to complex I will sub in a run.

I will be back later!

Back with personals:
 
Cookie - I feel the same way about missing so many rotations. I will stick with LIS to get familiar with those workouts. What did you decite on?
 
Kirstin - glad you like SB, wtg! How did your leg workout go? Hope you forget about thos tests when you go vacation. Don't let it border you to much ((HUGS)))
 
Debbie - we understand! Hope things will slow down for you soon.(((HUGS))) Glad for your DS, that's one less thing to worry about.

I will be back in the morning. Good night girls!

'Evening!
Belinda, glad you found a rotation you like. I just finished that one, and esp loved all the low impact. Now I'm doing FF's latest one, which includes higher impact. Did you ds decide to move home?
Deb, sorry to hear your heartbreak. How's he taking the situation? It seems when it rains, it pours. Hope your workouts destress you.
Kristen, SB is good but I'm not that much into the dancy workouts. But since I haven't done it in a while, perhaps I should try it again to see if my taste has changed. Any special plans for your week off?
Did afterburn this morning. Feeling it and tbt lb in my quads.

Hi,

It felt good to take a spin class. Almost couldn't get a bike 2 were broken but I took one that rocked but did some DIY & put a towel under one side & it helped I've been downing chicken soup & vitamin C because I feel like I'm coming down with something. I think I'm going to pick a rotation after I get back from vacation.

Belinda - The LIS rotation sounds really good. Are you going to replant your flowers?

Cookie - My older DS is easygoing so he adapts easily, he actually opened up today so keeping all my fingers & toes crossed. It's funny after reading about Coach Sean in OD you never know what is really going on in a person's mind. Is this the 1st time your doing an FF rotation?

Kristin - Are you counting down yet? Some of our schools have off this week & the rest have next week off.

Goodnight

Morning everyone. I didn't get to post yesterday, but I did do D35, plyo legs. One more STS workout to go! After I am done with STS I am going to do FF's get ready for summer rotation, putting in my own substitions where needed. It looks like a good rotation, with more cardio, which I think I need for these last stubborn 3-5 pounds.

I found out yesterday that my parents' neighbor, the father of the boys I used to babysit and my car mechanic too, died. He was driving home from work and he had a stroke or brain aneurism. He was 57. We are all shaken up about it. His one son is my brother's best friend. It is just crazy. The craziest part is he just did my car inspection on Saturday and was supposed to do DH's car inspection on Monday. Life is so short!

Deb- I envy everyone who has the longer break, including DS. Today is his last day. Mine is Thursday. I feel like I am running out of gas at work, lol. I just want a morning to sleep in (not very likely with my two wise guys).

Cookie- we are going to Hershey Park this weekend.They are having a spring in the park event and the tickets are half price. Then next week I am taking my mom to see Evita in the city. It is one of our favorite musicals.

Belinda- plyo legs workout was killer. Sweat was dripping from my hair. If my legs could talk, they would have been begging for me to stop. I kept up with Cathe and the crew throughout though

Okay, I am off to make myself presentable, lol. Right now I look like the bride of Frankenstein!

Kristin
