    Getting Our Licks In!

    Happy St Patrick's Day!! I am wearing green - that is the extent of my celebrating - I have never really done anything for it in the past - but I have heard of some pretty wild parties. Anybody else have plans? Last night I did STS Disc 3 - OH MY GOD!!!! That was tough - I was unprepared...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Last night I revisted Stepsational and did 100% better than the last time I did this and it was a ton of fun. Having stumbled my way through half of it Thursday helped me to master those first few combos - but I managed to do quite well with the rest of it. She has this routine divided - there...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    So "Hobie" came to us on Saturday afternoon. Pup is 6 or so - big male GSP - he's got 30lbs on our girls - and he is super sweet. We took him for a walk up and down the long drive that leads to the house as soon as we got him - in the rain no less. Can't wait to be able to let him run about...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Happy Friday everyone. I'm afraid I had a rather lousy workout last night. I attempted to do Christi Taylor's Stepsational - I had thought that this was a perfect choice. I have to say though - that learning it again didn't go as smoothly as I thought it would and I grew frustrated. I made a...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    I put in STS disc 2 last night - was surprised I made it through. I had some trouble with my power tower that got me all flustered and MAD :mad: that I spent a bunch of time messing with it and not working out. Finally, I called in DH to fix the problem - much more handy than I am and got down...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    I decided to do - just like out of the clear blue - Low Impact Circuit. I can't tell you how much fun I thought this was!!! I don't think any one of us does this workout very often - but let me sing its praises - 3 circuits filled with step/ and a blast followed by strength training then abs...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Clearning the house!!! Yes - I am having a blast - can't help it - actually like to clean. I also got my Easter things out. I decided to concentrate all of the Easter decor in the kitchen. The kitchen is open to the rest of the living area -so you can see it when you are sitting on the couch...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Hello Everyone - Did Tracy Anderson yet again - the mat workout - very enjoyable - and so different. I think it is interesting to mix things up - and this certainly treats the muscles to something they aren't used to - yes, yes - I was confusing them. :) But so far - a great week for...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Last night I did Athlectic Step - absolutely no dread factor at all with this one - my 2nd time at it and it was even more enjoyable I think than the first. I've probably said this - but I am just LOVING how quickly Cathe puts together those combos!! Don't like doing each combos twice at the...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Last night did a Tracy Anderson workout - quite hard on the abs I have to say and I quite enjoyed it. My puppies came in and loved me up and I thought of Michelle and Ripken as I got kisses from my Dottiepie. Scout laid down beside me as I did some leg lifts. I was thinking it seems as if it...

    Last night I plugged in Amy Bento's ASC III all set to go - started off great - motivated - full of energy - did all of the warm up - first combo - perfect - missed some steps of the 2nd combo . . . stood there watching - movitvation diminishing - less enthusiastic - bored, maybe - don't want...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Hello everyone!! On Saturday DH and I went to some wineries in Ohio - the wine trail we went to was little - there was maybe 3 or 4 of them - so we went off trail to find a couple more. My taste buds were definitely off - I hated everything I tasted - didn't want to buy any wine. DH picked...

    For those who like dancy workouts, i.e. Step Moves

    I love dancy workouts best - there are a couple of Amy Bento's that I am so focused on learning - I forget I'm working out. :) Yes - there is the benefit of the mind body connection associated with learning the moves. I think it is worth it - but it is also a personal choice. I hate...

    A co worker is embarking on a new career and is leaving the company - DH & I went out last night to wish him well along with many others from work. I had 2 really really good Cosmos - the best I have had from anywhere in such a long while. However - I did not work out yesterday evening because...

    I paid better attention and the name of that video is called "The Biggest Winner" - there are 4 to 5 workouts she does with that name. The 2 I did work the front and the back. So all the muscles of the back I did on Monday - all the muscles of the front I did yesterday. Circuit type workout -...

    Well on Monday I did Jillian Michael's Winning by Losing - I'm still not sure if it is called that - I can tell you that Winning and losing are somehow in the title - apparantly - there is a whole little series of videos by her that goes by that name - works different body parts and there is a...

    Laura - Oh - I am so very sorry. I can't tell you how much this saddens me - Maggie is still so very young - just a puppy - how could this happen???!!??! A coworker's pup died just recently from kidney failure - he was in the same situation and could not afford to keep his pup at the vet for a...

    Relationship question

    What's the rush? There are just as many bad relationship stories to go with the good. Yes - sometimes it works out great - just make sure you know this person well enough to entangle yourself to this extent. I don't want to throw cold water on something your excited about - but answer this...
