Cathlete
Hello! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/banana_smiley_20.gif





I've finished up TWO sections of Cardio Quick Fix and a Cathe abs and am ready to face the day!

It's finally starting to get hot and humid here. It sounds like everywhere is.

Can you even believe it's almost the middle of JUNE?



JENNIFER - How weird about the email. Did you figure out what it was?

Did you enjoy your walk in the rain? I remember once one summer it was pouring rain and I went out for a walk in it without an umbrella. It was totally cool.


ROBIN - Woo hoo! Robin's back! Yay! Welcome back! Photos! Photos!


SHANNON - Ahhhh, the CC talk is really, really making me want an elliptical even more. I even started talking about maybe trying to put one somewhere at work LOL. If my work partner and I get rid of the sofa chair, we might be able to fit one.

>I assume that question, "what do you want" is career-related? Or is it life in general? At any rate, I know exactly how you feel!

The question wasn't specified, but I imagine my answer is the same for either situation. I've always had an answer for that question until sometime last year. It's weird.

Or maybe I'm just completely satisfied and want nothing more. Except an elliptical and Krispy Kreme. Ah dang it, I should have answered Krispy Kreme!

>I gotta know - what is bullet walking? Michele says you bullet walk. I even Googled it, and nothing turned up. Is this your very own invention?

Yeah, what Michele said. It's walking fast like an absolute nut. Like you've got something extremely pending for which you are late, but actually, you're not late at all. The bullet part for me comes because I'm always wearing mule shoes (clogs) and there's always the chance of one popping off my bullet foot and bopping someone good.

>Augie and Dana, I bow to you!

Heheh.

But what Dana said, nobody wants to walk with me either.


MICHELE - What? You may have caught a cold?! Oh no!! Get better!! We don't like it when Michele gets sick.

>I always hate it when people ask me questions like that.

Yeah. It goes right after the "How did you and your work partner meet?" I mean think about having to answer how you met your DH to a bunch of people every year. The first time you're asked, you answer with all sorts of fun details...but the 100th time you're asked, the answer is, "A mutual friend introduced us. Next question, and it better not be the What Do You Want one." http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/indifferent/indifferent0004.gif

>Maybe you should tell your partner to quit asking you that -- LMAO! I'm glad you got out a little bit yesterday.

My work partner and I were answering somebody else's questions, so he himself was asked! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/4fvgdaq_th.gif

>Did the clothes feel too bad!? Ha!

Luckily, I found some nice pajama-like clothing.

>I figure if Sean can make me do cardio, then why can't he make me clean my house?

LMAO!!

>And you can TOTALLY use CC for bullet walking!

I'm actually revving up to go for a bullet walk very soon! It's been a while since I took a bullet walk on my own.

CC Senorita! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/11.gif

DANA - Congratulations to your DH! Wow, that's cool! Can he keep the award at home? He must be totally stoked! Look at your cute hubby!


JEN -

>The more people I meet, the more I like my dogs!

LMAO!

I hope you had something good to eat!


Okay, I'm OFF!

Hey, I was thinking to post in the OD about getting some advice about moving a parent out of their house when it's FAAAAAR away from you. You think I should try posting to get some advice?


Have a nice day everyone! :D
 
Hello Haters.

Going back to work after an extended weekend. Monday was cold and rainy, tues was full of sunshine. 8 more days till my next time off and 9 more days till I fly to NY.. I got alot done over the past few days like father's day cards, birthday gift for Morgan, trip itneries printed, directions to airport (flying out of Lansing instead of grand rapids).

Hoping to have a great day at work today and you do to!!
 
Mornin! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/2lbkos0.gif

I feel much better today, and thank goodness it's quite a bit cooler than it was! It's supposed to get hot again later this afternoon and be a scorcher tomorrow, but the temps are supposed to drop quite a bit by the weekend and I'm really looking forward to that! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/loudlaff.gif (I have NO IDEA what this guy is doing but he just makes me lol!)

I made a BRILLIANT discovery! I...I think I've got this whole endorphin thing figured out! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/laie_14.gif

I think I know WHY I haven't had those wonderful orgasmic highs that everyone keeps raving about! Cause I've been having them lately http://www.pic4ever.com/images/dancegirl2.gif and I was trying to understand -- why now!? What's different about my workouts now as compared to last month or last year? And I think I have the answer!

Stay tuned.... http://www.pic4ever.com/images/balloony.gif

AUGIE -- I don't want to think about how fast time is going. It seems like it's flashing right before my very eyes.

Can you put an elliptical at your brother's house!? Or work, work would be good http://www.pic4ever.com/images/Laie_28.gif

Luckily, I found some nice pajama-like clothing.
ROTFLMAO!!!!

Did you go for a walk? Was it good? Did it stimulate endorphins? http://www.pic4ever.com/images/dancegirl2.gif

Hey, I was thinking to post in the OD about getting some advice about moving a parent out of their house when it's FAAAAAR away from you. You think I should try posting to get some advice?

Sure, why not? Sometimes there are real pearls of wisdom to be found in the OD ;) . Is...is your mom moving again?

JENNIFER -- It sounds like you've been very productive! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/cancan.gif I hope the time between now and your trips pases quickly. I know little Morgan will love her gift! What did you get her?

ROBIN, DANA, CUZ, JEN -- howdy do!!

I'm going to make a big post about my brilliant discovery in a little bit. Don't go away :p
 
CUZ - you come back here right now and tell us about your discovery!!! I'm so glad you're feeling better. And thank you very much for the wonderful email... sent at 2:30 a.m. CST. Good grief woman. What were you thinking????

August - ooohhh, you're so close to buying an elliptical! Go, Augie, go!!! Okay, I understand bullet walking now. Thank you, and the other ladies! And hey, I'm all for it being the middle of June... or preferably the middle of August (the month, not you, dear...). that means we're that much closer to WINTER. Ahhhh.

ETA:
Oops. I hit Post before I told y'all about my workout last night. It was the upper body premix from 4DS. Anybody try it? You should. It's an excellent workout! I usually have a lot of fun with it. Last night, it didn't click as well, but I still got a good workout. I love the heavy back work. Feels great!

Today is cardio again... and I'm doing CC 8 for the second time! Now if this work day will just hurry up and end so I can go home and jump on the elliptical.
 
Hey Cuz!!

I'll tell you all about my discovery in a little bit. I'm planning to make a big post about it on the CC website which I will paste in the OD forum here :D :D :D

I'm telling you Cuz, my nights have been DRRRRAAAAAAGGGGGGING. I've had so much trouble sleeping because of the heat. And the memory foam in our pillows and mattress retain heat magnifying the problem ;( . A new mattress is out of the question, but I'm looking for a new pillow and I don't want it to have even one scrap of memory foam in it!


Right now I'm off to do Vol 8 :D

I'll BBL :* :* :*
 
Michele - WHY do you to that to us? You tell us everything except for the main part?????????? You never should've told us. That's like someone telling a joke w/out the punch line.

Shannon - nope, haven't tried the UB premix - how long is it? I love all the weight training from 4DS. Do you get cold winters where you live? I HATE winter - primarily the driving. If I could stay at home, I don't think I'd mind it then.

Robin - checked out your vacation pics. Glad you had fun! Are you back to work now? How were the storms in your area last night?

Jennifer - so today is your last day of vacation? Anything special planned?

August - are you referring to your mom moving?

Our power went off last night around 6:30 - right after dinner so my dishes are just sitting on the counter waiting to be washed. DH did get the generator going but it certainly isn't enough to be able to use the a/c. And our tv went out too. So at 8:45 I decided I was going to bed. I had a terrible night's sleep. I was so hot. We have a well which meant no water. DH was able to put the well pump on w/the generator so we all got 2 minute showers. Poor Ralphie is probably dying. I left for work at 7:00 and still no power.

I'm also very irratable re: work. I'm swamped here, SWAMPED. But it seems like I'm the only one that is. I NEED a vacation!
 
Cuz, will you hurry up and post your revelation????

Dana - the 4DS premix is an hour or maybe a tad more, but it doesn't have a warmup or stretch, so that'd add to the time,too. I never warm up when I do it - I figure I'm warmed up enough from grooming the horses.

Our winters are usually pretty mild with very little frozen stuff. I can't remember the last time we got a decent snow - if anything does fall, it's usually ice, which of course wreaks havoc on the power lines. If that happens, I stay home. I refuse to drive in it, period. It doesn't last long, so it's no big deal.

Hey, I'm on a well, too. Isn't it just an adventure when the power goes out? No water, no showers, no flushing the toilet....
 
Hello Haters.

Today was my first day back to work, it went well although I was grilled about what I did. They are more than concerned that I'm looking for greener pastures in another field.

Morgan, for her 2nd birthday, will be getting a gift certificate from her Mom recommendation. I went with Toys R Us for $40. She can get lots of toys for that.


Might try a walk in a bit. BBL
