"""~~~"""clean-tidy-hump-day"""~~~"""

I bow to all of you and your chin up skills! It is only something I've been focused on since STS so I can't get too upset for not being able to do them unassisted yet. It's always fun to have a goal. I have woody bands- I have the assisted pull up package. I started out with the gray, which gives you the most assistance and have now moved to green (with less success this morning!). They are basically huge rubber bands- loop them over the bar and put your knee in it and they give you a small boost. I can find a youtube clip later if it doesn't make sense.

Morris: More kids- well I doubt it. I kind of have baby lust right now but DH does not! He's done. I get it- he's 37, I'm 35, I have terrible bed rest pregnancies. It wouldn't be a logical decision to have another, but since when is it ever logical, you know? I don't know if it is just that Max is 2 and all of a sudden a little boy and I miss a baby or what?! Le sigh.

Klaudia: You make me want P90X!

GG get the kids- over at my mom's!
 
Well, I had a pretty good meeting with my boss this morning. Every 6 to 8 weeks we get together to review what projects I'm working on, etc. Today's meeting was uneventful, so that's good. I have a new thing I'm learning to do at work--that's what I was doing in CA, getting preliminary training for it. It's going to take a long time, like 3 to 6 months, but that's good. It will keep me busy and be good for my brain.

Okay, I'm off to lunch in a few. I'm going to a Middle Eastern restaurant (the Woody's on Trowbridge, Kate) to meet a friend I haven't seen in a *long* time. Should be fun!

Patti I miss the QVC, don't want to get addicted to that again. Purple booty...too funny.

Angie sorry about your foot, take your time and make sure you are 100%. You don't want to re sprain it.

Katie are you planning to do a 4 day TM and 2 total body weights?

Kate sorry about your boob does the hot packs help?

Morris, How do you make your pot pie crust clean? Do you sub the buttah?:p
I think my boob is a little better - it's not quite so red anymore!:rolleyes:
Keep up those clean eats & itt will help w/ hormone issues!

Patti, How nice that your mom takes the kids! MIL takes them(the big girls) once in a great while.
Those bands sound great!

Anne, Enjoy your lunch! What I would do for some raw kibbee!!!!
Glad your mtg w/ Boss went well!

Robin, Yes, heat helps but I hate to sit here and fondle myself with the kids around:p so I just take a long STEAMIN hot shower.
are the kids enjoying the start of summer? ARE YOU!?!?!

-
Clean eats. Filling lunch - tortilla soup, corn bread, watermelon.
Just did CS UB/abs. MAY do cardio tonght but Wed is typically my rest day so we'll see how zzzzzz i am tongiht!
 
I hope you get your cardio done tonight Kate. My kids are loving their last day of school. I had to help my DD clean out her locker.:rolleyes:

My church is planning a trip to VA Kings Dominion.:D YES I don't have to drive.

I went over my cousin's house Irene and she is doing very well ever since her crazy daughter Tracey left....BTW Tracey is homeless now and sleeping on people's sofas. She maybe back sooner than I thought.

No w/o again today. Maybe I'll take a fast walk around the park for 1/2 hour.

dinner will be Spanish rice and chicken.

Have you ladies seen cathe.com home page? We are on it:D two times.
 
Robin, Last day of school!? yay!
What is King's Dominion? Theme park?
Are Tracey's kids with her?????
Enjoy your walk..... and that yummy dinner!
ROFL that we're on the homepage!! Chatty Cathes we are! Guess we'd better keep this rated G!;):p
 
Katie - Hope your wo was a good one this am.

Kate - Glad your duct is getting better. Have you tried positioning Julia so she's drinking from that duct? Way to go with the eats and resisting!

Patti - I went through baby lust a couple years ago and that is why I have a 7mo old right now! I am turning 36 this month so that's it for us, but DH wants another. No thank you. I want to see if I can catch the QVC segment now.

Anne - Your bike ride sounded awesome and have fun on your run this afternoon. Having a running buddy helps.

Klaudia - Sorry about the lost with your team. Maybe I should start P90X also. We have it, but I've only done a few of the wos. I would love to be able to do unassisted pull-ups though!

Robin - Hope you're able to get your power walk in. Can you believe the school year has already ended?

Angie - How are you feeling today? Hope your foot heals soon and I second Morris on getting it checked out just in case.

Morris - That is so cute about getting hugs from Aidan. Pomai has started kissing us on the cheek and waving hi. It's so cute.

Hi Colleen!

Okay so what in the world is greek yogurt??? So I woke up this morning with a swollen ankle. It is def. sprained. Can't really walk on it and I have so much to do this week, eugh. Anyway, I would love to hit the pool so maybe I will take my kids down to my parents so I can swim sometime this week. I am forced to eat clean so I need all of your help. Gotta get going. Have a photo studio appt this am. BBL.

Okay, I'm going to head home soon. 5 mile run at 6:30, then home for dinner and a call to the parents. I hope I can watch some of So You Think You Can Dance tonight. I love that show and somehow completely missed it for the last 2 weeks or so. Have a good night, everybody, I'll do personals in the morning!

anne
 
Kate - Oooh, cc cookie pie! How do you make that? P is pulling herself up on the sides of the couch to stand also. Makes me a little nervous because I'm always afraid she will fall backward so I watch her like a hawk. Can you believe our babies are trying to stand already? Wait, didn't we just give birth last week, lol?? It was just the girls taking pics. I only spent $40. My sister hires those artsy photographers that cost like $300-600. Uh...no thanks. I love nice pics, but refuse to go broke over them.

Angie - Tomorrow is a new day so focus in on that and not today. Have a good night!

Anne - My odd and I love watching that show. You know one of the 20 finalists is from Hawaii!!! Pono is what he's going by I think. He's full name is Kuponohi'ipoi, but I think he went with just Pono for the show. Anyway, tonight is the first night with just the finalists I think. Oooh...go for it with the biking tour.

Back from photos and grocery shopping. Bought lots of veggies for clean eating today. Eggplant, pumpkin squash, green beans, and some pork for protein. Oh and I bought white nectarines for dessert/snack. Bfast was dry toast and a boiled egg. Lunch will be not sure.....veggies and something. Anyway, doing GS BSB tonight. We'll see on the back exercises, but the shoulders and bis for sure.

Lisa
 
anne, have a great run, a healthy dinner, and not too stressful hat w/ your parents!

lisa, all those grocs sound yum!
cc pie = spread the dough in a pie plate & bake. not too gourmet - i was fee;ing lazy!:p
altho i hate to see them grow i love watching them learn to walk!:D
rock those weights tonight!

-
 
Sorry I haven't been around much today - busy day, errands after work, then company, then dinner. BUT, two of the kittens already have homes so that is great. Of course, we will wait until they are 8 weeks.

Robin, we are going to Kings Dominion with Collin in late July I think. The house I grew up in is about 15 minutes from there!
 
Good evening! As the day has gone on my poor legs are shredded! I can hardly sit down. Gotta love trisets! :eek:

Lisa: Baby lust is dangerous! That's interesting that your DH wants more- fascinates me b/c mine is no no no. :) Enjoy GS! I miss that one.

Anne: The bike thing sounds FUN! I would like that.

Angie: We all have days like that- it's OK.

Eats were clean today and again no pop- yay! We have a Kings Island near our house- I used to work there driving trams in the parking lot. I miss roller coasters. Gotta run- shower time for the kiddos. I may be back later or just go to bed!
 
Katie, I totally forgot about your kittens! Is Collin totally in love with them or are they old news now?

Patti, YAY DOMS!!! Feels so good to hurt so bad!
WTG on no pop!! Good for you!

I am surprisingly sore from BM2 UB last night! WHo knew 20 min of weights would pack such a punch!:confused:
 
Kate, he does love the kittens but he is not obsessed. He is too rough with them, so I don't let him hold them much.

Not even two hours after dinner my stomach was growling. I have 5+ miles to run in the morning, so I ate 1/2 bowl of cereal. I hate doing it - I *ALWAYS* follow the 2 hour rule. But I can't sleep or run on an empty stomach. I think I did the right thing, I know I did.... But I still worry about the cals, ya know?
 
Katie: I know departing from your norm is hard, but I think you should be proud for listening to your body. FWIW, I never follow the 2 hour rule. :D I am currently eating greek yogurt with frozen strawberries, just like every other night. You need fuel!
