Gooooood morning, ladies!

I can't believe we're at the end of May. Fourteen school days left!! Woohoo!

Today will be BBC Chest & Abs plus my own cardio (probably a KM timesaver given how damn hot it's gonna be!)

Have a GREAT, stress-free day, everyone!

~Cathy :)
 
Good Morning Folks.

Cathy: I didn't win a dime in A/C though they didn't just rip it out of my hands. I hit enough to keep me afloat for the weekend but ultimately I was doomed!:eek: DH and I ended up donating a nice sum of money to the casino's cause!:p :7 I had a great time though. Great food and drink. I walked the boards with DH one morning and went shopping with my mom 2 days in a row. I, ofcourse, could only find things to purchase for my son on those shopping trips. LOL

I have spin class and tone it up + chin ups on tap for today.

I'll be back later once everyone wakes up!:+
 
Good morning!!!

Wendy - EVERY time I shop I find things I love for my girls!! I know where you're coming from on the shopping.

To answer some questions about the graduation - This is my middle daughter, my first daughter graduated from college two years ago. I still have one daughter in high school. No, normally you can't book "dorm" rooms except at graduation which really was quite handy. They put you on "Old Campus" which usually has just freshman located here. Of course, freshman were gone for year and only seniors left awaiting graduation ceremonies. And, THANKFULLY, they were no where near parents, lol!!!! It was quite nice and it gave me more of a feel for the college and the college experience. I never went away for school but now wish I had. Oh.....live and learn.

Okay, my whole body is sore from various workouts and it feels so good. I've been really good on the eating for three days now, lol. Story of my life... Three days on, three days off,....

I bought the workout "Squeeze" and am wondering how to fit it in. I may give it a go tomorrow night. Today I'm going to have to do some type of cardio just haven't decided yet. I have a busy night attending some function at my daughter's high school tonight so I don't know when I'm going to fit it all in. I hate this time of year - it's always my busiest!!!

Cathy - Only 14 more days of school? We have about 22 or more. We go right to the end of June, unfortunately!!!

Okay, back to work. Have a great day everyone!!!!

IA .. can't beleive this is the end of May .. man it went fast! going to be JUNE tomorrow .. wow .. and tomorrow will be INSANE at work .. b/c it is the first of the month welfare checks drop .. and b/c the 3rd falls on a Sunday BOTH sets of checks will drop .. combine that w/Friday payday .. and a full moon .. YIKES .. it will be insane asylum lockdown tomorrow .. LOL!

Wendy .. everytime I find some slots I manage to donate all my money to them too!! LOL .. but usually manage to stay afloat long enough to have fun .. I am not a big gambler .. stick to the 5 cent and 25 cent machines ... if I loose there it is down to the penny machine ..LOL .. DH plays the $1 machine . YIKES .. I wouldn't last 5 min on that one .. UNLUCKY at gambling is putting it mildly!

Today .. is heavy gym legs at lunch .. then tonight it is Core Torture class ..

Ok . better run .. will check back later to see what Angie, Diana, and Cathe are up to!!!

Hi Ladies,

I slept in this morning and did not work outx( I have a lunch meeting so if possible, I will head to the rec ctr some time today. Otherwise this will be a rest day for me.

Cathy-Have fun with BBC C&A. These no nonesense w/o are great. My kids only have a few days left of school. June 7th is the official last day of school.

Wendy-I love shopping too, even if I only find stuff for my boys. It sounds like you had a great weekend.

Nancy-22 more days of school-that sounds awful. Fortunately, our last day is next Thurs. It's too hot to go through June. Obviously your school must start much later. You crack me up with your 3 days on, 3 days off comment. Let's just try for another 3 days of eating good:)

Laura-Maybe keeping the beach house-good for you. It's always stressful buying and selling a home. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

Have a great day everyone.

Diana
 
Good afternoon folks

This week has been so messed up for me. Went to work today b/c it felt like Weds. I got a lot of loose ends taken care of so when I go back on Monday, it should go very smoothly. I'm stalling b/c I should be in the basement right now doing B&G. I need to go get my tennies on and get movin'.:) It's just so darn hot that I'm having trouble finding my motivation.

Cathy - I think I would be dreading a BBC w/o even more.:D Those w/o definitely work up a sweat. Have fun with it.

Laura - Those darn husbands!;-) It's a man thing..... I'm sure he'll come home with good news for you, if not....I pitty the fool.:eek: LOL!
Best of luck with whatever happens with the beach house. Just keep enjoying it while it's still in limbo.

Wendy - Did somebody say shopping? Isn't it strange how when mom's go shopping they always find something for their kids but hardly ever find anything for themselves? I'll bet Joey liked his surprises that you brought home.:)
Yeah - I can't stop the X workouts. I usually do 1 or 2 of them per week but I love to do them b/c they force me to do the pullups and pushups that I really don't much enjoy, but make a big difference in my arms. I'm really looking forward to Tony's next project.

Diana - Sometimes it feels just so good to sleep in. That was my plan for tomorrow but MIL wants to go to garage sales tomorrow morning. I'm still trying to do what I can to keep her mind off the death of FIL, so I told her I would go with her. I'm not much of a garage sale shopper but every now and then there are treasures to be found. I guess my sleep is gonna have to wait until the weekend.
Enjoy your rest day.

Alright - I need to go and get B&G done and over with! BBL

Angie
 
I'mmmmm Baaaack.:D

B&G is in the history books. Does anyone else do that one from beginning to end? I loathe the floor work on the leg segment and I don't even use the weights - ug! My legs are like jello when I'm done. :7 I think maybe I'll just use the B&G for segments to add to other workouts in the future. I had slow and heavy legs and shoulders on my schedule for tomorrow. What was I thinking???? Ummmmm - I think I'll change it to do an upper body or a fun cardio.

Waddeling away slowly.......until tomorrow girls.:)

Angie
 
Wendy :: So mama didn’t buy a new pair of shoes, eh? Did you hit the outlets while you were there? The last time I was in AC was for one of the teachers’ conventions, but I never did make it to the shops. Looked nice, though.

Nancy :: I think bits & pieces of Squeeze make a great add-on. Linda on the cheetahs thread shared with me a lower body mish-mosh that she’d gotten from someone else. I’ve tried it – it’s pretty good. Here it is…

Warm up – Full Body Squeeze – 45 min.
Waist – FBS
Legs – FBS
Legs – Power Squeeze
The “L” – FBS
Pretzel – Custom Squeeze
Foldover Plank – CS
Buns & Thighs – PS
Windshield Wipers Buns & Thighs – CS
Flat Abs – CS
Final Stretch – FBS

Laura :: *lol* ‘bout the insane asylum lockdown…Before I became a teacher, I used to work for the state as an aide to an elected official, and when it came to constituents, I saw ALLLLL kinds of things…I think that office was a magnet for the mentally unstable…oh, the stories!…Sounds like DH needs a good punch in the pantalones…*lol*...but GOOD NEWS on the beach house! Maybe you are not meant to part with it.

Diana :: At my old district, we always finished the second week of June for that reason – no A/C. It used to be absolutely BRUTAL trying to teach those last few weeks when the classrooms were roaster ovens. Luckily, in my new school, we’ve got air. Otherwise, it’d be torture.

Angie :: this is the first time I did Chest & Abs – OK but not a fave…Did you just quote Mr. T???? *lol* Love it! I am just starting to feel some DOMS from yesterday’s B&G blast. I haven't done the w/out as produced in a while, but I think I'm doing the blast too much (starting to dread certain repeats in that one), so I think I'll also experiment with some of the other premixes and creating my own mish-moshes. Good idea!! Mixing it up is always good.

I don’t have kids, but my shopping dilemma is that when I have money to spend with the intent of buying new clothes, I can’t find squat…it’s only when I’m broke that I find a buncha stuff. Murphy’s law, I guess. *lol*

OK, ladies – have a great night!

~Cathy :)
