*waving hands frantically* I'm still breathing. My days consist of working, working out, walking dogs, dinner, and bed. I haven't even had time to log my workouts into the manager. Just a snap shot of the past two months. Everyone up and quit the barn, which left me and my boss, then my...

Hi Ladies! I've missed you! I've been working six days a week, but finally cut back to five days. Both jobs I'm working are so labor intensive, I'm exhausted almost always. DH and I have been keeping up with the weight lifting and started STS this week. We're cutting back on the bike miles...

Hello Ladies, I've missed checking in with you. Thanks for starting another thread Diana. :) We took another vacation two weeks ago, and then it was back to working two part time jobs and squeezing in cycling. There are days I just don't have more than 10 minutes to log onto the computer...

Sorry I've been MIA. We were on vacation last week and just didn't stop. We did 171 miles of biking, climbed Mt. Washington, and kayaked four days, around 8 hours total. I need a vacation from our vacation. We lost two workers at the barn, so it's only three of us taking care of 20 horses...

This week is XT for weights and cycling. We managed 100 miles over the weekend and I'll meet DH out tonight for a short ride. My ankle is feeling pretty good this week, so I'm going to try ICE CLB this morning. We're hiking Mt. Washington next week, so I'm going to keep away from anything...

Our century ride was fantastic!! We met so many nice people and saw areas of Maine I'd never been through. The support team was really friendly. We will be doing this charity ride next year for sure. DH finished with an overall speed of 17.5 mph and I finished with an overall of 16.5. We...

We had a rainy weekend, so we didn't get any cycling in. We did GS on Sat, Sun, and Mon. Tuesday was a 40 mile ride and last night was MM upper body premix. I'm going to do the floor work from GS legs this morning and hopefully cycling tonight if the thunderstorms hold off. This morning I...

Beth, thanks for starting a new thread. :) We finally finished the bathroom and we're so happy with it. The new closet is my favorite part. I just need to buy new hampers and some baskets for the shelves and it will be fully completed. I'll try to get a photo. I wish I took before pics...

Life is on fast forward right now. Between working two jobs, finishing the bathroom, and cycling, I don't get on to the computer very often. I'm really loving the stable work. The crew I work with is amazing. No drama, everyone just works their hiney off. I work anywhere from 6 to 8.5 hour...

I feel like I've been away for a very long time. Friday I worked from 7 a.m. until 8 p.m. between my two jobs. They are only about .25 miles apart from each other. I went away this weekend with my sister and stayed at her island camp on lake Winnipesaukee. We went to a concert on Saturday...

My workout on Friday was RWH CLB and I totally sprained my ankle when I spun around during the box repeaters. The outside of my ankle was the size of a softball. It's still swollen, but the pain is pretty much gone. What a dodo-bird I am. I really didn't even need to be working out after the...

My first day off from working in eight days. I'm really enjoying the stable job, but it's only temporary. I'm still cleaning for the school on the weekends and will finish out this year until August. I'll work at the barn until September and hopefully have a full time job set up by then...

Sorry I've been missing. I started working at a stable, and when I come home, there are workers here in and out all day. This is the first time I've been on the computer in a long time. Since I started working during the week, I'm only doing weights in the evening w/ DH or cycling. This week...

Our bathroom is getting redone this week. I've been really busy emptying everything out. We're claiming some of DD's closet to make a linen closet in our bathroom, so that mess had to be removed. They gutted the entire bathroom, down to the studs. The only other bathroom in the house is a...

Oh my, the new bike!! I've ridden the last two days and what a difference compared to my other bikes. I can lift it with one hand, it's so light. Climbing hills just became a lot easier. Monday was KM and STS. We rode Tuesday and last night. I only have plyo legs to do this week and we'll...

Yesterday was RK in the a.m. and I had planned to do M3W2 BST with DH in the evening, but my FIL called and said he was put on alert that they had a kidney in Boston, if he was interested in having a transplant last night. He's been waiting for this call for four years and I'm the lucky driver...

We had two great bike rides this weekend. Mileage came in as 99.5, so not our first 100 for the year yet. I was really sick after the ride on Saturday. I think I may have chugged too much water when we got home. I purchased some recovery drink to have after our next long ride. This week...

I have a lot of catching up to do on everyone's posts. I haven't had time to get to the computer for the last week or so. We had a rainy ride with a flat tire on Saturday, a mechanical bike issue ride on Sunday. My bike is currently in the shop again and is going on Craigslist as soon as it...

We finished Meso 2, week 3 this week. For cardio, I did old Cathe's; CK, Imax 1, RS, CTX S&I, and CTX PS. It a relief to know I do still have an operating memory. Sometimes I worry that it's starting to slip, "what did I come into this room for"? Today is a rest day and tomorrow is hopefully...

Yesterday was a chilly bike ride. This morning was CK and STS W&P abs. Tonight will be STS disc 19, which is 70 min. long! Thankfully we have the new barbell, so we won't have to share/squabble over it. Diana, the bar we purchased is the padded straight bar. It's about two feet longer than...
