Hiya girls
What a crazy hectic Monday. There was no power at the office so I brought the paperwork home and couldn't get away from the kids, phone or my parents dropping by. Ug! The power came back on at the office so I high tailed it outta here this afternoon so I could get some work done. This is a busy time for me since I gotta make sure the books are balanced before the 1st of the year.
I'd like to go shopping this weekend sometime for a bike. I posted on the OF for some suggestions. I'm torn between a spin bike and a recumbent bike. I tend to get the ouchies in the seat area with a regular bike so I am kinda leaning toward the recumbent......still not sure though.
I got home and did Providence today. My right shoulder was much better today but still a bit sore so I made sure I went light on the overhead presses with DB's. My forearms are gonna be bruised tomorrow though.....can already feel that comin' on. At this point, I don't really like the cleans....practice makes perfect I guess. I do think I need a 15# KB for sure.
Laura - hope you are kickin' butt at the slots or tables.
Jacque - I'm thinking about those KB's at target. I think I will like the handles on those more than the handle on the one I got from reebok. It really chaffed my hands at the end of the workout today.
I have also found that it's hard not to chip my nails doing the KB's.
Maybe my clumsiness will lessen with practice.
I hear you on the books situation. It's a bummer that the end of the year has to happen over the holidays huh?
I would love for my kids to have school year round! That would be awesome!! And I'm sure the kids retain much more information that way too.
Diana - Did you get CLX today?
Good for you in getting that tree and decs taken care of. The post Christmas clutter just gets to me for some reason. But with the boys home - it's so hard to get everything cleaned up. Oy! Why didn't I have girls?
I have noticed that I don't do well wearing a HRM with KB workouts. I have bashed my watch into my arm a few times so I have just given up with that. I'm waiting to see how my shoulders feel in a couple of days before I get the nerve up to tackle Newport. *lol* I can't wait to give it a try though.
Jen - I hear you about wanting the kids to go back to school. I swear my kids' brains are going to be Wii mush by the time they go back. It's driving me nuts that I can't keep anything cleaned up.
Ah yes, take it easy. I know that's easier said than done. It does sound like you are building up slowly but surely.....that's the way to do it for sure. You'll get there.
Most surgeons that I have had the....um....pleasure
....to deal with have been personality impaired. I have no idea why that is. There was only one in the two hospitals in the area that wasn't a complete A-hole. The egos were just amazing.
Hopefully you'll get the answers you need from your family doc, but don't be afraid to call the office of the surgeon and ask them questions.
Wendy - Sounds like a nice mish-mosh of a workout today.
Did you get any of the AOS DVD's for Christmas?
Hey - you are getting your $$ out of the IMAX3 DVD. Good for you! I've never done just the blasts...whoa! I'm sure that would be exhausting.
As far as NYE - DH and I are lame-o. *lol* We will do some celebrating with BF and her DH and the kids will probably go and catch a movie. I have doubts that we will make it to midnight though. BF needs to go to a Christmas party the next day and DH will have worked all day and he usually hits the sack early.
We were going to go bowling but they want $149 for an hour of bowling for 6 people. Uh, I don't think so!! Plus they wanted to charge $40 for a steak dinner without the promise of crab legs. Again - I don't think so! So, we will probably just have some CABs, naughty eats, and play some cards. Impressive huh? LOL! Where are you going off to? When are you going to start??
Did you all catch the new abs clips from STS? Oooooooo - they look evil!
Later girls
