40's are not turkeys!

Lisa, you have a hair cut scheduled for March? Thats like, next year, 3 months from now. Here is how I plan hair cuts. Notices hair consistently looks like crap for a period of at least 3 weeks and wants to make appt. Calls hairdresser to make appt but doesn't have schedule in front of me when she calls me back so I have to find planner and call her back again, hopefully within a few days. Have waited until peak season, holiday or her vacation so have to wait another 2 weeks to get in. Arrives, unsure of what I want her to do just fix it and make it better.
Short answer, call the person you like and go early for hair cut.
Mary, oh I get it, you train the preceptors. Gotcha. Today was ok. Nice group of people. When in doubt I just try to remember to let go of what is not my responsibility and ask how important is it and just do the next right thing I am supposed to do. I'm just there to roll with the punches and overall it is a good site.
Roxie, hugs. I hope you guys get to regroup a little over TGive.
OK Ronne and Murphy are officially AWOL

The person that I have the haircut with in March fills up QUICK, must book about 2 mths in advance. She's always willing to work you in when she can but I don't like the hassle of doing it that way and most of the time you have to wait about a month. She is that popular.

Before I forget,,,, I had to cut off half of my toenail. It looks naked.

What happens when 40's go AWOL? Should there be a penalty? :)

Good Morning,

I was a bad girls yesterday but I needed a pick me up, Bed Bath and Beyond has Zumba Exhilerate in there store and I have been looking at it for a while but didn't want to order it and I had a 15% off coupon so knowing perfectly well now is not the time to spend money I bought it. I did the instructional workout last night and I have decided this won't be my main workout until I learn the moves so I will use it as and extra.

Lisa-your hair looks nice I would just stick with your regular. I go about every 6 weeks just to keep the frizzies at bay.

Jody-you are funny.

Mary-thank you for the prayers I am trying to hang in there.
 
got up early, started to work a bit, got bombarded with messages and emails, got fed up knowing I couldn't get any of it done today and with the lack of communication that things got to this point, decided to just not work the rest of the day, I'll deal with it all Monday when I go into the office! So, I got the turkey brining and now going to go to CF. I also canceled my hair appt, I really couldn't justify the expense on top of possibly losing more hair than I want. I did the budget and we've spent a LOT in medical stuff this month (thank you DH ear)....over $600. So I was very practical and canceled....haha actually it gave me clarity and was like karma. hope that makes sense.

Roxie, that sounds like it would be fun. You'll have to let us know how you end up liking it. I haven't been sleeping all that well either, been reading a lot in the middle of the night, I've taken a lot of valarian lately. Last night my toe was bothering me, not sure if it hurts more in bed because of the sheets pressing on it or because my mind isn't occupied elsewhere and it feels the pain more. I just painted the naked part with mecurochrome trying to get some of the soreness out. I do not like what happened to my toe! Very annoying! Hope things get better for you soon, I see where Hostess is really kaput now. Maybe it's all for the best, bummer it's at the holidays though. Hang in there.

Jody, most of what you say doesn't make sense to me with your clinicals, etc. All I know is you sound busy, if I don't comment it's cuz I don't know what to say!

Mary, Not sure if DH hearing is making any improvement, sometimes he says it feels like if he got the wick out of the ear he may be able to hear better. He just keeps plugging along with the steriod drops, at 6 weeks they have to be stopped, depending on how he feels we may stop at 4.5 weeks.
 
CF and low impact bonus and core bonus done. I don't like CF core bonus, I can't do those crab things at the beginning at all, I think it's my wrists that are bothered the most and my one arm can't keep me up at a time.
 
Hi girls! Did HIIT 30/30. Yay! I'm off until tuesday! Roxie, I have always wanted to do a Zumba class. You deserve a little something just for yourself, don't feel bad about it! Jody, I actually am with the students, I have 8 of them on the floor, I assign them patients and work with the staff to make sure we get everything done. Hi to anyone else! Have to get to work on some appetizers for tomorrow! Will see you tomorrow! Mary
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I did CLX Push Circuit 2 and 1.41 miles on the TM. I closed the store at 3pm. today and I am off until Monday thank god. Hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving.
 
Happy Thanksgiving friends! Hope you all have a great day with family and friends! I have to go get to my workout, not sure what it will be yet! I have to go to MIL's for breakfast, then my moms for dinner, then to friends to decompress! Will talk to you all tomorrow! Mary
 
Good Morning,

I will do CLX Burn Intervals and TJ Standing Abs. DH and I are going to MILs for lunch and then he said he would go for a walk with me its nice and warm out.

Mary-sounds like another busy day for you.
 
Am I the only one cooking the WHOLE meal? I can't believe the huge turkey I got (20 lb). Giving most of the leftovers to the boys, DH is out of town next week so I really don't need much food in the house! Getting ready to do LICh before all the cooking begins (I do not like cooking either).

I didn't sleep well last night AT ALL! I rec'd some sad news yesterday, my neighbor passed away yesterday, if you remember his wife passed away last year. We were very close to them. Then on top of it, it just brings back memories. 10 Thanksgivings ago I was in ICU with my Dad (just 2 months after my Mom passed) knowing the next day we were taking him off the ventilator.

So this year, I give thanks for good health and the power and knowledge to try to make healthful choices. Enjoy your day 40 friends!
 
Sorry I have been away. I was sicker than usual. I could not sleep, I was tired at work, my head was stuffy and the rest of me was off and on with aches and the shakes. Now I am hacking up the yucky stuff. I can sleep now, but the ought wake me up. Anyway, I hope everyone had a good day. I hope to be back on the forums soon. TTYL. Murphy
 
I don't think it was a good idea to drink super dieters tea the night before black friday shopping. My cell phone is cracked, I am off to get a new one today, but if lines are unmanageable, I'll just come home and order online.
Lisa, nice pic of family on fb. Murphy, I'm sorry you are so sick but glad to hear from you. Did you manage the holiday ok? Roxie and Mary enjoy this long weekend, I am looking forward to it. My dad arrived on Wed but he will prob go home this morning. He doesn't like to stick around too long, short and sweet usually, and he fixed one of my laptops.
Dinner yesterday was fantastic traditional butter carb fest with no green things whatsoever and it was followed by too much desert. I'm gonna have to eat pretty clean for a while to make up for it. Ronne, where are you??
 
Good Morning,

Yesterday was nice I did my workout then we went to MILs for lunch and both of DHs sister were there and all three 4 year olds and my niece and her 1 year old daughter. The food was good and then every year we usually go shopping at a store they had called Pamida but it went out of business and is now Shopko so we got to stay with tradition. Dh and I stood in line for 45 mins at Walmart for 2 of the t.v.s they had on there black friday sale one is ours and the other is for dd and her dh.

Jody-sounds like you had a nice time.

Murphy-hope you get better soon that sounds awful.

Lisa-how did your dinner turn out?
 
My turkey was awesome! It just fell apart carving it, super moist. It was a hit and sent most of it home with the boys. They also took most all of the leftovers too, I barely have enough for a leftover dinner with DH today. I think they were very happy to get the food and I was happy to give it away. They didn't like the stuffing too much...it was a whole wheat bread crumbs...they said it was too fiberous....I thought it was pretty good but I wouldn't buy it again.

Roxie, yippee on snagging some TVs, did you have to stand in line long?

Jody, what did you drink that for? To flush the t-giving food? OY! I really didn't over indulge. The pic: uh, the pose doesn't flatter me and I didn't realize the pants would be in it, as you see, no dressing up. My hair had flopped a little, all the heat from the oven and then doing the dishes I had to go outside to cool off!

Murphy, Sorry to hear how sick you have been, those little ones are germ breeders :)

Mary, how was your day?

Ronne, are you still out there?

Ok, off to do my w/o, 4DS All UB weights...
 
Hi girls! Today did GS BS&B. Did a little shopping, nothing major! Murphy, hope you are on the mend! We have missed you! Jody, I went to get a new cell phone today, the ones on special were all gone, maybe next time! Lisa, so nice with the leftovers. Not quite sure if I would have enjoyed that stuffing either! My mom always makes me an extra pan for myself. DD made the gravy, 1st time! It was fabulous! Roxie, I love a deal! I'm not good at waiting in line tho! Ronne, hope you are still out there! I think a little snooze might be in order now! Have a good day! Mary
 
Good Evening,

I had a nice visit with my sister and mother just wish I didn't have to drive so far to see them. My sister took me on a 5 mile walk so that was my workout for the day and it would have been nice but it was only 40 degrees today with wind so nice and chilly. Dh hung the new t.v. in my workout room so now I have more space.

Lisa-glad to hear the turkey turned out ok. We were in line for the t.v. for about 30 mins but it was a longer wait at the register.

Mary-I usually don't do black Friday but I wanted a smaller t.v. that hung on the wall for my workout room.
 
mary, you can still order samsung s 3 online if u use sprint - online

roxie congrats on score at walmart, has to be the toughest black friday line there is? Or maybe bestbuy...idk
 
4DS double cardio PM done. I just don't have too much energy though for some reason, maybe it's the broken sleep during the night.

I'm being a hermit this weekend, I just do NOT want to get out in the crowds.
 
Hi everyone! Did hills and intervals on the TM. Lisa, I love being a hermit! It's a cyclical for me, sometimes want to go everywhere, others I would like to never leave the house. Jody, I have verizon, I always have trouble on line and I like to talk to a real person. Although they are not really that helpful when I go? Roxie, football today? Hi Murphy! Feeling better? Hi Ronne! How's the hand? Not sure what the kids want to get into today, or me for that matter! Have a good day, Mary
