    PEEPS Grab a cup of coffee and join me!

    OK, so after I typed this morning that I was going to IKEA or Whole Foods, neither one happened. A line of thunderstorms rolled in and then we had a tornado watch for awhile. But the time the storm had passed, DH was up and wanted to do something with all of us and he didn't want to go to Whole...

    PEEPS Grab a cup of coffee and join me!

    Guten Morgen, fellow Peeps! I've got the first pot of coffee started for us this morning!! I just did Body Fusion and the section of Stretch Max that uses no equipment. I'm REALLY lacking on ab work this week (just one segment) so I might try to squeeze in a section of Core Max this...

    Barely Peepin' on Friday

    Karin--You are just like my DH--no fears of flying on any kind of plane, yet he HATES heights. I'm pretty OK on airplanes--as long as they are no smaller than a 737 or regional jet--I'm like Ellie, I can't do props. I will look through flight schedules and arrange my travel around them at all...

    Barely Peepin' on Friday

    Dani--Per your request, I have updated my picture, LOL! Don't be so hard on yourself for not being in the mood this season--you've had a LOT of stress! Possibly moving...issues with the boss...issues with DH over going to holiday parties and how much "holiday beverage consumption" would take...

    Barely Peepin' on Friday

    Guten Morgen, Peeps! Well, this morning I did Patrick G's ABC Stability Ball workout. Not sure what I think of this. There's some turns and backwards toward the screen stuff (I'm HORRIBLE at learning that--remember, I'm still learning hitch kick shuffle on HIS, I got that in JULY) and I need...

    Peeping Around the Christmas Tree

    Guten Morgen, Peepers! I'm feeling awesome right now--I did Drill Max this morning, only editing out the very end part--the crazy terminator jump over the step bit, and the lunges where you turn with the ball (my brain can't coordinate that one) and the plank push-ups with the weights (ditto...

    Peeping Around the Clock

    Karin!! OK, I love the idea of pumpkin lasagna--but all the recipes I've come across use heavy cream, or sausage, or both! BUT this one is perfect--no heavy meats, no heavy cream sauce...I'd give this one a shot!!! I tried Giada's butternut squash lasagna last year, but it was so heavy on the...
