Yay and very big hugs to you on your birthday!

Now, Michele, first le me apologize for posting while you were taking time to start off a new thread yesterday! We know how much you hate doing that.

And what's wrong with your vision? Are you all right? How was the doctor's appointment? And were you not able to read that I'd asked about Cardioke? LOL.

>I bought a couple of cute t-shirts and 2 blouses which made me very happy

SCORE! Yay!

>But there's nothing quite like shopping for clothes to make you get religion , so I PROMISE to do my workout today...and eat salad

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!

Well, whatever you do, you'd better have some fabulous Lava Cake for your birthday. I'm counting on you!

Thanks for the lemon tip (thanks, too, Dana!). I had bottled lemon, so I poured some on my hands. Ahhh, what a relief. I don't think I'll ever buy and cut up guts again.

DANA -

>Hey to all of you other haters. Seems like the haters are dropping like flies - nobody's around. LOL

This is preposterous! We are a band of HATE and we must stick together!!

Good for you for doing your workouts. It sounds like things are going really well with that!

>with our income tax refund we're going to enclose our deck to make it screened in and put on a roof

Ooooh, now that sounds sooooo lovely. How cool! I'm sure it will be so great to have that spot. When will it be done?......er, when will it start?

>Did you have a donut?

I was feeling ill and running around trying to find a bathroom so I wouldn't barf amongst the non-barfing,......but when I was queasily facing the Dunkin' Donuts, I must admit I thought briefly about getting one LOL. (I did not, by the way, lose my lunch, and felt better in about an hour.)

SHANNON -

>Lemme tell ya what I hate... mixing cardio with weights

Well, I am all the way with you on THAT! I totally feel like I'm doing neither proper cardio nor proper weights when I'm doing circuits. I also don't like doing...what are those called....compound moves?....the ones where you do two exercises at the same time, like overhead raises and squats. Instead of focusing on the muscle, I'm focusing on "when the he!! is this going to finish?"

There are lots of earthquakes in Japan, but last night's one was a pretty big one and scared the Bjeez out of Mooch, Cham and me. Why do those things always have to happen at odd dark hours?

JENNIFER - How cute about the mouse. All the gang are at my place and everyone's taking a good ol' nap. It's getting warmer here and I've started placing cooler things to sleep on around the apartment, and taking away some of the warmer blankets.

Thanks, yes, I'm okay from the earthquake. I don't freak out when they happen, but a part of me does sort of mentally prepare myself to grab the kitties and run.

Soooo, you gonna start something up with the guy at Seminary?



All right, I've got Miss Crock working her magic on Pumpkin & Pinto Bean Stew again. YES! http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/happy/happy0037.gif I feel much better and am going to try to do some work today at home. I think I'll be able to start working out again on Monday.

By the way, the earthquake last night (around 1:30am) was a 6.6 in a place called Ibaraki (150 miles from Tokyo). Geesh.

And by the other way, I'm starting the squirrels back on dry + wet since they just aren't eating enough. I'll go back to 50/50 and slowly wean them back to 75 wet/ 25 dry. That seemed to be a good balance to stick with for a while - it was a balance where everyone was having good BM's (not Body Max LOL) and acting frisky and happy.

So I'm not sure what to do with all the guts in my freezer.


All right, I'm off!

Have a HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MICHELE!!!! http://bestsmileys.com/birthday1/1.gif

And to the rest of your Haters, have a wonderful Thursday! http://bestsmileys.com/kissing2/10.gif

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHELE!!!!!

I'll BBL.

 

[Miss Lee]

WOO HOO!! Party in the Hater's check in!! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/dance010.gif

Good morning everybody!

I was LMAO at the title of todays thread. When I first read it, I thought it said "Hate Michele" -- LMAO!! LMAO!!

DH was planning to take me out to dinner tonight but I don't know -- he was sick all night and feeling pretty wiped out when he left for work this morning. I won't mind if we stay home this evening. We can always go out again on Saturday.

I...I didn't do my workout yesterday http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ashamed001.gif . I WANTED to but I hurt my baby toe...no really, I did. I did some shopping yesterday and I wore a pair of sandals with a wedge heel -- old sandals that I haven't worn since last summer -- and they gave me blisters on my baby toes!!! My left baby toe is in particularly bad shape. The blister popped and was rubbed raw, then my whole foot swelled and the pain went up into my calf. I've never experienced anything like that before. Needless to say, I could barely walk much less put shoes on and do a workout. I put some antibiotic ointment and a band-aid on it and it feels much better this morning, although I haven't tried to put a shoe on yet. Geez, I wonder why my old, worn shoes gave me blisters!?

So, I was planning to do a little more shopping today, for shoes , but that may have to wait until that blister heals x( .

AUGIE -- thank you for the birthday greetings!!! It made me feel very special http://bestsmileys.com/blushing/7.gif

Have the quakes stopped? I confess I worry about you living in a high-rise apartment building. You're on my permanent prayer list :*

My vision is fine. I have to see the ophthalmologist every 6 months because I have a rare and bizarre autoimmune disease that left me with glaucoma in one eye. The affected eye changed colors from hazel to blue, so now I'm walking around with 2 different colored eyeballs -- one blue, and one hazel (but that looks green). It's kind of cool.

Did the lemon remove the bad smell from your hands? What were you doing chopping up guts, anyway -- LMAO!! And who's guts were they? Why not just give the little buggers some tuna? LMAO again!

I have not yet tried Cardioke, in fact, I forgot I had it . I have a rather extensive collection of cardio workouts that I've never tried. http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ashamed003.gif

DANA -- OMG I'm so jealous of your screened-in porch! I've always wanted one of those. We have a patio and I hardly ever sit out there. It gets too hot in the summer and it's in full sun -- UGH! And it's too small for one of those sets with an umbrella.

OMG!! My sister just called me from work and she had her 5th grade students sing Happy Birthday!!! ROTFLMAO!! OMG it was so cute!

CUZ -- I LOVE the 4DS, but not the cardio part. I substituted with CC or Leslie Sansone. I followed the rotation Cathe posted and got the best results ever!! I appreciated being able to do an entire workout, strength and cardio, in an hour or less. I definitely didn't feel like I got half a strength workout. I thought it was the most efficient workout I'd ever done. Cuz, you and I could not workout together -- LMAO!!

JENNIFER -- I'm LMAO at your babies and the mouse. Well thank goodness it was just a toy :7

And what is it with you and priests?


ROBIN and JEN -- Hello and :* :* :*

Alright, I need to sign off for now but I'll BBL. I might take myself out for breakfast :9

 

[SRP]

CUZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! Gosh, I had no idea. Now it's down on my calendar forever and ever!!! I hope you have a truly wonderful day. And yes, you deserve a day off. It's your b'day, after all. So baby that toe and enjoy your day.

August - I'm glad the earthquakes didn't cause any problems for you. Whew. We actually have a few earthquakes in Arkansas, if you can believe that - the New Madrid Fault runs up through the northwest part of the state. Right now, they're just rare tremors. But they say that when the fault goes, it's gonna be a doozy. And yes, I am not fond of compound weights either! Augie, if it wasn't for the fact that you're a cardio hater, I think we'd get along just fine. :7

Dana - Hi there... maybe I'll see you later!

 

[JT]

Happy Birthday, Michele!

I;m going to celebrate with KPC. Friday night is a BIG cheat night though-big dinner at work.


Have a Great Night.

 

[buffettgirl]

Hi haters. Thought I'd give you all a heads up about a pretty good recipe I posted on the OD. I made it for dinner and really liked it. DH said he'd eat it again if he had to. Men!

Michele, are you having a wonderful day? Sorry about your toe. Will it keep you from doing an upper body workout too? }( I hope your DH feels better soon. DH is taking me, DD and his mom out for dinner tomorrow. We are going here. http://www.herdichouse.com/

August, gosh, I can't imagine waking up to find an earthquake going on. I think I'd run screaming from the building. My cats make me so mad. They have totally trashed the carpet in my DH's office space. I tried to clean it, hoping it would decrease the nasty catty smell that permeates the house when it gets humid. It was a little better. This morning, right after breakfast, Frank ran into the open and peed right in the middle of the floor. I found it by stepping in it in my stocking feet! Ick! DH is hoping to tear out the carpet this summer and replace it with hard wood flooring, like we have in the rest of the house. I already warned him that the first time it gets peed on, both cats are history. I don't know if I can carry out that threat, but I hate being embarrassed to have anyone enter my home.

Dana, what's up? I love the idea of a screened in deck. We spend a lot of time on the patio, but like Michele's it gets hot and it's too small to put an umbrella up. We are going to Knoeble's this weekend. We have some free passes from WVIA. I hope the weather behaves.

Jennifer and Shannon, I see you guys over in Meltyville.

Time to go relax. See you tomorrow. When it will no longer be Michele's birthday.

Just wanted to pop in & wish Michele a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

I still am not feeling 100%, I think this medicine is causing me to retain water & feel sluggish. I have been crabby & very tired. Still working out daily but not as intense as I normally do, which is also making me more crabby! Work has been busy too & I haven't been sleeping well so going to try to knock myself out with a couple Unisom tonight. Tomorrow I am leaving work a little early to take Storm & Sami to the vet for shots. Sport is due for her yearly shots & Sami needs a booster of one.

Anyway, hope all is well with everyone & sorry for lack of personals, I hope to feel back to normal once I'm off this medicine.
