Morning Glory! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/2uge4p4.gif

It seems I have inadvertently taught Chami that my workout time is her scratch and massage time. http://www.pic4ever.com/images/4fvgdaq_th.gif

As soon as I put the DVD in, I can see her stirring in her nap spot. I push play, I go stand in the middle of my room to start my warm up, and it's "MYA--! I'm here for my scheduled massage appointment!" http://www.pic4ever.com/images/hanghead.gif

So then I have to push pause and be her dutiful slave. http://www.pic4ever.com/images/worship.gif

I'm done with my 15-min workout and am headed for my windowless workroom on this lovely Saturday.

>bowel of chicken soup

How could one forget! She could serve up some Bowels of Chicken Soup with a side of Sloopy Joe. And a big juicy brain to go!

>fried brains drizzled in maple syrup

As if fried brains isn't um, interesting enough. Do you think someone fried up the brains, tasted it and thought, "Hmm. It's missing....something."

>bike conversion

I'm sure that would be easy to find! And a great idea!

>did you buy that kitty perch?

No, but I'm kind of itching to. Can you imagine putting a bunch of those on the balcony window in tiers? The squirrels could climb up from one to the other and up to the top of the window. That would be so cool. Unless it were to fall off, of course.

>Come and play... It's Friday... you don't really have to work, do you?

>My body was in knots last night, and I had an icky headache.

Urgh, Shannon, Post-holiday traumatic stress! I hope you have a restful, cardio-filled weekend.

>DH took a BIG piece, ate every bite, then made a fuss over it like it was the best cake he ever ate

Michele, that made me want to cry. What an absolute sweetheart.

>slip n slide at Wal-Mart

COOL!




Okay, I must strike the work iron while it is still hot! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/vampire.gif

Have a great weekend, all! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/imslow.gif
 
Good morning!!

Oh geez, I'm using the Safari browser and I don't know how to do icons with it -- it's so much easier with Mozilla, but for some reason Mozilla has been freezing up on me lately. Maybe that means they're working on an upgrade or something! :D

I only have a few minutes while DH is out getting a haircut, but I need to call my sister, and once DH is home I won't be back here.

I think DH might be willing to do a segment of Classical Stretch with me this morning. He hurt his back the other day when he picked up a little girl to hold her and it's really bothering him. His foot is better but still sore. He had it checked out and the doc just thought he had a minor inflammation, so he's supposed to take Ibuprofen for a couple of weeks.

We really haven't made any plans for the weekend -- it's entirely up in the air. I think DH is pretty tired though, so we probably won't do much.

AUGIE -- Ha! That Cham sure is a smooth operator! :p

My Johnny likes to get in on the action whenever I lay the mat on the floor for stretches. He plops his butt right smack dab in the middle and he will not budge. :+

A work room with no windows!? Oh my, that would be distressing. Do you have pictures or posters on the wall that you can gaze upon for inspiration? Are the squirrels in there running amock -- LMAO!

Oh hey, our Jennifer posted a sad thread about feeling blue. She hasn't been around late, so if any of you have a chance to post in her thread, here it is:
http://69.0.137.118/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=4&topic_id=506192&mesg_id=506192&page=

Okay, I need to sign off here. I have to call my sister before it gets any later. There's a chance I won't make it back until Monday, so you guys have a great, relaxing, and fun weekend and I'll see you next week :* :* :*
 
Michele, thanks for telling us about our Jennifer. I'd been wondering why she wasn't here posting and had started to worry about her.

JENNIFER!!! WE NEED YOU HERE FOR OUR JENNIFER FIX!!!!!!!

I've written a note to her in her thread. It sounds like she's getting herself ready for a needed change. It's exciting -- and once she realizes it's exciting, she'll be...excited!

JENNIFER! WE NEEEEED YOU HEEEEERE!!!!


Okay, Michele, have a great stretch and I hope your DH's back gets better. At least his foot is!

Night night all!
 
Awwwwww Augie, I saw your post for our dear Jennifer. It was so uplifting! I hope she reads it and stops by here to say hello.

Night night, Augie :*
 
Michele thanks for the link to Jennifer's post.

JENNIFER, stop by and say hi! We miss you!

Aug, you have such a way with words.

Michele - did your DH do the classiscal stretch???

It is so HOT here. OMG it is awful. I love the summer but sheesh, this really hit all of a sudden. I didn't do a workout today and have been eating crap all day. I had a great week diet wise but today I totally blew it!!!

No workout today. I did do 4DS triceps/biceps, MIS abs and a walk yesterday.

Well I"m off to play some games on gamehouse.com. The kids are watching some Scooby Do movie on Cartoon Network from 1971. Zoinks!
 
>Zoinks!

LMAO!!! I have not said that in ages. Zoinks! LMAO!!


It's been strange weather here in Japan, too. One day it will be really hot and the next day it will be rainy and cold, the next day is windy and humid....it's all weird!

Not that I'm outside or anything. http://mysmileyz.com/s/4u45ox0.gif


Oh, I thought I should update you on my whey protein situation, since you guys are obviously too shy to ask me. http://www.pic4ever.com/images/teef.gif

Sooooo, I have my vanilla, and the peanut butter caramel one went to my brother (along with the disgusting protein bars -- someone remind me next year when I attempt to buy them again LOL), and the out-of-date cinnamon roll one....?

The makers stopped making it! LOL! THAT'S how delicious and popular it was. So I'm getting a refund for that.

So now I have no special tub of whey protein to use as a foot rest. Oh well.

There. I'm sure you all feel better now that you know the protein scoop ba-dun-dunk! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/gigglesmile.gif


I'm finished doing a 10-min Cardio Solution PLUS the Upper Body premix to BS. Why did I do ALLLLLLL that working out? (Humor me here.) It's because I had a reallllllly horrid breakfast LOL. So horrid I can't tell you. http://www.pic4ever.com/images/198.gif But I will tell you it's something people normally don't have as a chaser for an already extremely unhealthy breakfast.

And therefor, I felt crappy enough to want to do a little cardio.

Hey, could that be the answer for getting me to do more cardio?
http://www.pic4ever.com/images/zthinking2.gif



The squirrels are fed, I finished my smoothie (I wasn't even hungry for it after my workout since my stomach was full of dough http://www.pic4ever.com/images/14k8gag.gif ) but I figured I could use some actual PROTEIN so....



Okay, I'm off to work now.

I'm still sending good vibes to you, Jennifer (I noticed you posted in your OD thread, so I'm happy about that), and well, what the heck, I'll send you all good vibes. It's Sunday!

Have a great one! :D
 
Hey Augie and Dana!!

I can't sleep so I thought I'd pop in here to see what the haters are up to tonight.

DANA -- It's been hotter than blue blazes and very humid for days! I just can't take it -- oh man, this weather is killing me!

Oh yeah, DH did Classical Stretch... http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/laughing004.gif . I shouldn't laugh, but I can't help it. He's so utterly inflexibly I thought he might break in two! And he kept like, grunting -- LMAO! His form was sooooo bad. But still, I'm proud of him for trying. He's really trying hard to make changes in his lifestyle and I need to...not laugh at him. :p

Zoiks! What games were you playing? I haven't played Bookworm in a while.

AUGIE -- I will sleep so much better now that I know the current disposition of your whey protein -- LMAO!! In the absence of all those containers, have you re-measured for an elliptical? LMAO again!!

I want the full details of your breakfast.

Alright, I better make an attempt at sleeping. We have a long day tomorrow. Good night sweetnesses :* :*
 
Hello Haters.

Just waking up after a huge storm here that lasted all night and from the night before, thank you Michele and August for your posts on my thread. It's been an emotional ride lately and change is needed in my life. Yesterday, I was able to walk the pier onto Lake MI and our LORD was able to get my attention. It was about a 5 mile walk round trip. Change will happen in HIS time not mine. Work is slow lately and don't see any improvement for long time so it makes more anxious to get moving.

Seville,Madrid, and I watched the storm last night from my front porch/study/dining room. It's all windows and it was more exciting than anything on TV. The boys are not that scared of lightening and thunder.

Thanks for your prayers and notes of encouragement.
 
MICHELE - Good for your DH for trying out the stretch! I certainly hope you didn't laugh! http://mysmileyz.com/s/annoyed.gif Do you think he'll do it again? Did he enjoy it?


>I want the full details of your breakfast.

Let's just say I could open up a miniature Starbucks inside my stomach.

http://mysmileyz.com/s/379.gif


JENNIFER - It's JENNIFER! You're here! At last! http://mysmileyz.com/s/confettistars.gif

A walk on the pier sounds awesome. I would love to do that. And follow that with a storm viewing with my babies, now THAT is a weekend!



Tomorrow I have to get dressed. http://mysmileyz.com/s/tongue2.gif The last time I had to get dressed, it just felt so....uncomfortable. http://mysmileyz.com/s/raked.gif



All right, there are still a few more hours I could squeeze out some productive time, so off I go.

Have a nice Sunday, Jennifer and Michele, and you other Haters!
 
Hi, Haters -

Augie - Thank you soooo much for the protein tub update. Whew. I feel better knowing that. :7 I do hope you can get outside soon! Just push everything aside and GO!

Cuz - tell your DH "great job!!" on doing CS. Wow, am I proud of him. Do you think you could get him to start lifting weights with you? Wouldn't that be fun! Hey, I'm with you on the humidity. It's awful here too... and I got to spend all day yesterday out in it doing yard work. I was bound and determined to not hate summer this year.... but it's just not working. TGFAC (that means thank God for air conditioners). :7

Dana - so, yesterday was your cheat day, huh? That's okay... it's perfectly legitimate to allow yourself a cheat day. Now then, do you feel better?

I'm off to finish the weekend - clean house, water some more outside, cook a little, and watercolor. I'll do the Pyramid Bonus Combo later, and probably abs from B&G. See y'all tomorrow!
 
Hey, Shannon! We were posting at the same time! :7

Have a great Sunday!!

Watercolor? WOW, cool!
 
Good morning Jennifer, August, and Cuz!!

JENNIFER!! We're so happy to hear from you!! I think you're right to look to God. I'm a HUGE believer in the power of prayer. He's never failed me ;) . I'll keep you in my prayers.

AUGIE -- did...did you have a donut!? And possibly more than one donut!? And maybe something with creamery goodness? Oh I hope so! :D }( :p

I certainly hope you didn't laugh!
I may have laughed just a little. BUT, I was also very encouraging, I swear I was! ;)

I'm sorry you have to get dressed tomorrow. It's such a drag, isn't it?

CUZ -- How in the WORLD can you work outside in this heat and humidity!? I mean, it's bad enough in Ohio -- I can't even imagine what it must be like in Arkansas. ;(

As for getting DH to lift weights with me -- I don't know. I've been trying for ages. I even got him some Tony Horton DVD's thinking he'd be more likely to use them than he would Cathe's stuff. I think he did P90 ONCE x( . His doctor is sending him for a stress test next week. One positive thing that came out of his sleep study is that it seems to have impressed upon him the need to take better care of himself. I'm hoping he'll start using my CC workouts ;)

Cuz, I would LOVE to see some of your paintings!

Alright, I'll see you guys tomorrow. I need to sign off and get ready to go out for breakfast. Have a great day everyone!:*
 
something trivial to brighten my day, a really cute guy just winked at me on match.com.. and I've haven't subscribed on there for over 6 months.
 
Hey haters, just popping to in to say a quick hello. Been a busy weekend so wasn't around, sorry.

Workout today was High Step Training & yesterday was KPC Cardio Conditioning, B&G, & Firm It Up floorwork.

Wanted to say a quick hello, Chad is training a guy right now but will be back soon & I'm going to curl up in bed, after finishing up a few things around here, & watch TV until he is back.

Jennifer- You are in my prayers & I know everything will work out in time. Hang in there & try not to get down. We didn't get any bad storms here this weekend, thank goodness. Did you? So, are you going to wink back at the guy???? :)

Hello to everyone else, I will try to check in tomorrow night to see what everyone is up to!
