I had to LOL about car wash… Its rained so much this summer that I haven’t washed my car in almost 4 months! It is nice & shiny!! I do clean out the inside but that’s ONLY because of dog hair- otherwise I wouldn’t bother with that! YOU have way too much energy this weekend! All I can think about is how/when I can take a nap today! :7

SANDRA MARIE -X :D
Gotta love the All Day Workout ! I think it’s a good shock for your body sometimes too! LOL on adults hiding outside! You guys must have been having a good time! ~~ I cant believe how easily influenced you were to purchase new Shiva! LOL Wanna invest in my new business? HOORAY on Boxing Series! It’s a must have for me then… MIL shall be house sitting while we go to bay… She gets to make a little gambling $ so all are happy!~~ Isnt that funny about homemade bread and satisfaction levels… I try & try to have bread in AM but I swear it starts an all day craving for carbs… Maybe it’s the processed bread that’s causing it. Even the Ezekial Bread did it to me tho. ~~ BTW: My "in trouble" name WAS & STILL is: Traci Ellen Duncan! the entire sha-bang! :+

[i ]LEA- X[/i]
I most certainly WILL come to the other side if you shop for & prepare ALL my meals- I’ll buy if you’ll do the work! Honestly girl there are just not enough hours in the day for me to drive an hour to the nearest whole food store and then LEARN to make all your yummies! I would be THRILLED to - & that’s an honest statement!! ~~ COME HELP ME! ~~~Very pleased to hear about your DOMS! You must have really worked hard - *ahem* what about upper tho? Tony would like a few push ups today… just 120 or so would be nice! *ducking the dehydrator being hurled across the room*
Woof Woof
;-)

Gotta go de-stink and then head to store for a couple of things.... The kitchens a diaster still so after that task its NAP TIME!!!:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Hi all,

No workout done, but lots of paperwork that I didn't want to do done! DH is starting to loose it; FIL has been here since Friday. I may have to get out of Dodge.

I am interested in the boxing series. I'll have to review it further once she posts the details. We have a bag already, so that makes it a little more appealing. We have gloves too. I don't see how I will be able to punch a bag and not hurt my wrist/fingers/etc. It hurts when I just play around with the boys and practice what I'd do if I got mugged. I punch and they tell me I'd be better off running as fast as I could:)

Traci - I love HSTA. It is one of my favorites. Step ups are so helpful when you go hiking.

Lea - Is it a special bread dehydrator? Whatever you are eating or drinking must be working. I can tell from the tone of your posts that you are much happier. I'm happy for you!

Sandra - Here is the link to the other DVD. I think it's live. I figure for less than 12 it can't be bad.

Off again.

I'm still alive:D

It's 10:00 and it's already 90 degrees outside! We'll be up to a cozy 109 today and all I can say is, I'm staying inside at my mom's today. She has AC unlike me so it will be much better!

I'm going to get a little Eoinn in today before I go. I need to relax and take it esy so I can kick butt this week with PS.

Traci-X, Egg whites and green vegis:9 I had whole grain pumpkin pancakes:9 Bad I know but I use vegan Earth Balance spread and pure maple syrup on top. Special treat for those days without weights:) Way to mix it up with HSTA. You are so creative. I always stick with what the DVD says to do and that's it. With three boys all of my creative juices get sucked dry:P

TracyX, Love the new avatar! Sorry you're having to deal with the stress of DFIL again:( At least you made yourself feel a little better with the new DVD purchases. I have to wait for a while to make any new purchases. I kind of went crazy a few months ago and purchased all of the ones I wanted:D Way to go on all of the heavy weights on legs:D I hate standing leg work so I am envious of your endurance. I don't get AC until February when we get our tax refund:( At least the materials should be cheaper then.

LeaX, I'm only a half hour from the beach but it is so crazy on holiday weekends! My DH and I take our boys once a week during the summer to a smaller beach and it's really nice. It's a bit further north si it takes about 45 min. to get there.What is the texture of the unbaked bread? Is it gooey or tough?

SandraX, The last time I had trouble with my car ot cost $4,000 and the check engine light didn't even come on. You can imagine I got a bit nervous when it did! That's the first time it ever came on, yikes! If it costs over $800 I might have to cave and get a new car:( I really like my car and it has been paid off for five years so I'm a bit spoiled. The September rotation does look good but I'll wait to start it until I'm done with my current rotation. I'll do it until I get the new DVD's. I hope it's soon:) Enjoy the homemade bread! I'm so jealous! I wish I had a Planet Organic and a pizza place like that around here. We use to have this delicious vegetarian restaurant in SD but it went out of business and I was so bummed:(

Off to get yoga in before DH gets home from the desert. Yes, he's crazy! It's supposed to be 120 out there today}( Dove hunting season opened today so he had to go out and get dinner for his family:P The boys love it but I respectfully decline:D

Hi Swifty, Wendy, Carol, Cheryl, Amy and Jenn!!

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.

Hi, everyone!

Balls of Fury was really fun, actually. It was George Lopez and Christopher Walken. C. Walken was hilarious. I didn't know what this would be - the kids wanted to see it and I envisioned something really goofy like Ben Stiller in Dodge Ball, but it was actually pretty good.

Today I did Cardio and Weights all the way through for the first time as a primary workout. Loved it! I don't use too many ciruits but this one left me sweating, had enough upper body to leave me feeling like i'd done something and didn't tax lower body enough to prevent me from doing lower body weights tomorrow without a rest day inbetween. Now I'll be humming "Buttercup" for the rest of the day :)

We're having b-day dinner for my 3rd son - the college major - today. He requested Chinese Chicken soup and homemade egg rolls. Yum - but the soup is healthy, and I'll have to hold the egg rolls to just one. Also an ice cream cake - yowza. Too many b-days lately for my dietary good :+ :+ :+

Traci, love the shopping bargains! Very fun!

Tracy, nice workout!

Sandra, Nicole, AmySwifty - sounds like you're having good days -
Have a great Sunday afternoon, everyone!

Hi all,

MM upper only 2x through is done. I'll do some yoga later.

Nicole - I feel so bad for people who have to take their car to the shop to get fixed. DS & DH do almost all of our repairs. We took our Suburban in because they wanted the transmission serviced and they called us and said it needed 2500 worth of repairs. We just went and picked it up. There was nothing wrong with it.

Traci- Have credit card, internet, time, and will spend. I'm right there with you today. I almost bought some shoes today too, but then decided to wait. I'm getting my hair highlighted on Tuesday and that's 200. I still need to go to That Pet Place and get some fish supplies. Have you ever bought pet supplies from them? If you know what you want, they are quite cheap. I don't want to look at my bank account.

Cheryl - Back in the day I used to make homemade egg rolls and they were so good; time consuming but good. I may have to think about that one weekend, once DS gets back in town. I love C&W. It is great for those in between days.

Off to shower and then to the grocery store. I'm out of fruit and veggies.

Tracy, my eggrolls were very easy - browned a package of ground turkey and mixed it with chopped chinese napa cabbage, grated carrot and some powdered ginger and put about 3T filling in each wrapper. I wrapped them up this morning and put them in a sealed cake pan in the fridge, so they were all ready for cooking quickly when we were ready.

Did fry them in Canola oil (naughty! deep fried!)
The sauce was easy and delicios - in a small saucepan heat 1 can crushed pineapple, 1/2 c. white vinegar, 1/2 c. sugar, 2 T. soy sauce and 1 T. ketchup. Bring to a boil and thicken with 1 1/2 T. cornstarch mixed in a little water. Everyone loved it. It was a big hit.

Too yummy.

Good thing I worked out this morning :+ :+
