Ughhh, I am so tired! The last week I have been bushed come 8:00. The bad part is come 6:00 in the morning I'm not ready to wake up. Maybe I'll take cues from Debra and take a nap here and there
Tracy, Thanks for the encouragement. I know it will get better I just have to put my foot down harder. It's funny because I'm always telling friends to put their foot down about certain things and I find myself unable to do the same. Has it warmed up there at all? Are you able to get outside and run on a regular basis or is it hit and miss? How is work going? Any difficult parents bugging you? I hope not. Hey, only 4-1/2 months to go
Traci, How's it going? Is Wendell keeping you busy? How is his training going? I take it he's on the IL. That'll teach him to put you in charge
I definitely hear what your saying about DH. I think the fear of the boys making the same mistakes is what is realize it has to stop. The boys up until now have been oblivious but they are picking up on it fast. I know my FIL was the same way for a bit and that DH learned from example. I do not want the same fate for my dear boys. I will put my foot down hard, I promise:* I am always encouraged by your advice so don't worry about offending me, I have thick skin. Have fun at the bay!!
Lea, Did you go on your hike? It was gorgeous here today too! I made the boys run outside for the whole day so they could get some of their couped up energy out. I wish I could say it worked but I think boys have a never ending supply
Debra, Glad to hear the planets are aligning once again and you and CBL are doing good
Sounds like you had great plans for this evening, I hope it all went well. I bet DD had a blast! What a great program for her. Don't worry about overstepping bounds with me. If I tell you girls about it, I can hear the feedback. Our situation actually sounds just like yours. I am praying I have not let it go beyond repair and I'm thinking I haven't. I can be pretty tough too I just get too emotional with DH. I need to figure out how to stand up firmly and not take it and I know he'll back down. About a year ago he was up to calling me a b* a few times a week and I said enough, you will stop this now and he did. I will just pray for the strength to do it again. Thanks for the advice and courage you give me:*
Sandra, What did you think of the Plus series today? I really like how they get in good and get out fast
I feel much stronger after just two weeks. I can only imagine how it would be after 3 months. I'll have to try that after STS. I would think stacked means compound work. I tell ya, if the new ones work like the Total Body Plus, I may have to check them out. Oh, if I had to struggle through being deserted on an island with someone, it would be Brad Pitt when he was in Legends of the Fall. If it wasn't him it would be the young guy on the new Lipstick Jungle series!!!
I'm glad you said something about my antibiotics, I have to go take one really quick!
Wendy, I'm glad you clarified the water not blood thing. I was a bit scared there. I thought maybe the bathroom doubled as a chicken processing plant. My sister spent time in India so I recognized the "toilet". She said it worked quite well, believe it or not. I guess Phil should be careful about letting you watch the 6:00 news, huh? Sounds like anchormen are your weakness
I know DH has a problem and I hope I can help him fix it. He is such a hard worker and a good father with many redeeming qualities. I think that's why I have avoided making waves about this. I see now that was a mistake and it will make it harder to fix but with God's help I can do it! Thanks for the love
Jeanette, Ok I missed it, which rotation are you doing? Another good steady state cardio is Rhythmic Step. I love the dancy moves in that one. I may have to pull it out after the round is over. I'm surprised it's not warmer up your way. I figured if both Lea and I were getting high 70's you would at least be in the 60's. Glad you are still brave enough to get out on that bike though, even if it is 40. I guess the monotony of riding in the garage was too much. What did you think of 3:10 to Yuma? DH and I watched that the other night and enjoyed it. Sad ending but it had good character development.
Christiane, Gee, welcome home, huh? What a day!! I can't imagine why you didn't get a workout in
I hope it's nothing to costly to repair your car. CS is a workout you would learn to love/hate. It's tough but very effective. Thanks for the UTI advice. I have an appointment to see my doctor again about it. She is going to make sure I'm not resistant to the antibiotic she's giving me. I had a bad kidney infection when I was pregnant and now I have a prolapsed bladder so I have a lot working against me. Enjoy your time with DD!
Laurie, Oh my, stay warm!! I hope you had a fun evening at the party and dinner. Make sure to relax after church tomorrow and snuggle up by the fire. You are making me so hungry with the Cherry Cordial recipe. I'll have to get that recipe off of CL's website:9 I hope to really work on communicating clearly and firmly to DH. I know if I stand firm he'll bend. Just pray I can do it.
Kim, Hope you are feeling better today! Is it the flu or sinuses? I hate being dizzy and light headed. Rest and get naps in. come visit when you can.
I'm off to sleep now. {{{{{HUGS}}}}} and :* to you all,
Nicole
Bring it!!!
