40s - bugs galore!

That's so sad. I never meant to imply you like to lie. I'm just too honest to a fault and I am a really bad liar. That reminds me of when I was a teenager....lied to parents about abc, then had to remember lie abc to create lie def, repeat, repeat. I got so confused I didn't know what lie I said to cover the next lie. I think that cured me of lying.

Roxie that does suck, I kind of know how you feel, kind of had money crunch problems with the nutritionist I used to work part time for. I hated that part...people waiting for their stuff but no money to cover, thank goodness I didn't have to lie (maybe she did that part)
 
Lisa-when I can get away with it I tell people exactly what is going on but I have to make sure they are not within hearing distance.
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I went to the gym and did one of the workouts the PT gave me started with a warm up on the ellipitcal and then got tougher from there.
 
I just finished a TTM premix - alone. I did not expect DH to work out with me again so soon but it would have been a nice surprise. Anyway, I did one of the tabata's and it seemed so....short. Well, it was a premix and I wanted something short but each time a do a short premix I say to myself, "it's over all ready?" Maybe I should stop doing premixes when I don't have to.

Lisa - I am glad to see you are on the mend. Speaking of the sun and suncreen -
DD went to the beach yesterday with camp and her back is sunburned. I put sunscreen on her, but she had a shirt on and we were rushing and I forgot to tell DH to put more on her at school. )(&(&()&()&! So, I am keeping her moisturized and hydrated and cool with loose clothing. I also gave her some Tylenol-like stuff for the pain. I know she will be fine, but she is such a hypocondriac (sp?) If she gets a paper cut she wants to go to the hospital.

Roxie - sorry to hear about the lies. I am sure your customers appreciate when you can be honest.

Waves to all.

Hi all

Murphy - I get so paranoid when my DD gets sunburned! Well done on getting the workout in, whatever the length!

Roxie - that's really horrible being put on the spot like that. It's always much better to be honest.

Lisa - yes, give the MAC stuff a try if you can get it cheap. I always get bad skin on holiday from putting suncream on everyday but this stuff is so smooth and sinks in really easily and I can relax knowing I'm well protected. Woohoo for your trip. When are you going? Glad to hear your bruises are colourful. I can just imagine what your colleagues would say!! ;)

Mary - it sounds you're having a really nice summer with the kids.

Today was Hiit 40/20 plus Stab Ball Abs. I think Cathe is trying to kill us with cardio for the end of this rotation. Tomorrow is CrossFire and Friday Kick Max?!! May be doing a premix for KM.
Still enjoying the weather here! Looking forward to the Olympics starting. I'll be glued to the TV for 2 weeks!
 
A blast from the past....Legs and Glutes. Got winded during the leg presses (hate those), got nauseous during the lift leg to side at the end of standing work. Almost quit, but just paused it and once I felt better I continued on. Maybe pushed too hard. I've felt blah (guess because I look so bad), doing my hair today (now that I can flip upside down with out getting nauseous since my best styling is done upside down), maybe prettier hair will make me feel better. Plus DS20 is coming by since he will be at the dentist later. He's not my hugging child but I'm going to make him hug me :)

Ronne, Getting more colorful....green on my eyelid now, along with some red grapes too. Co-workers...one guy actually sent me email telling me to "send pictures....haha", WTH, that got me upset again, geez, just don't say anything! I'm having a time with this as it is since it's right in the middle of my face! We leave the 3rd week of Sept for Niagara, less than 2 months!

Murphy, sounds like you are Cathe-ready!

Roxie, hope you have a better day.

Mary, My house needs cleaned! Cleaning lady comes tomorrow, I really should get off my butt and do the cleaning myself, but, I just can't seem to get motivated in that direction. I prefer a little cleaning each day but that's hard to do with working since I'm tired from boring work all day. So I just keep her every 2 months, and clean a bit in between.

Jody, been thinking of you!

Hi girls! Did CF today, yesterday did PP. We went to the drive in last night, saw Ice Age 3, very cute. Today will be the pool and cleaning! Lisa, sounds like that man is still in junior high. Jackalope! Remember your body is still healing, don't rush yourself! I will come and clean for you! You work full time, I would have a cleaner if I worked full time also. Ronne, will you get to see any events? It all looks so amazing! Jody, hope you are doing ok, thinking of you. Murphy, are you taking a rest day tomorrow? You are going to be working out all weekend! Take notes for us!! Roxie, so sorry about work. What a terrible position they are putting you in. Hi Becky! Hope everyone has a good day, Mary
 
Mary and all, I just want to tell you all how much you cheer me up! I only shared that photo with my family and close friends and I consider you all close friends. Yea, I know others can see it, I really should go take it down now!

Good Afternoon,

I have been busy this morning. Pray that we get rain tonite and tomarrow its 100 again today and the humidity is awful I cannot wait until we leave for Colorado in 2 weeks. Tonite I am helping DD clean again so no workout for me. Thanks everyone for the kind words makes me feel better.

Lisa-take it easy until you are fully recovered.

Mary-have fun at the pool.

Ronne-glad to hear your weather is better.
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I went to the gym and did the elliptical now my legs are killing me. It looks like it might rain but I am not holding my breath.
 
Just finished a S&G premix. I hurt my shoulder last night doing the Wii and then I thought about what Mary said about taking a rest day. the shoulder pain is bearable and I am hoping that it will be okay for Friday. Crap.

Hi all

Murphy - you twit!! Hope it's OK for the RT. Keep us posted.

Roxie - sending the rain your way, I hope!

Lisa - my excuse for not cleaning at the moment is that the weather is too good. I go and sit in the garden and read at the end of the day instead of cleaning. I can clean when it rains again!! Hope non-hugging son came up with the goods! :p

Mary - no we're not actually going. My mum has tickets for hockey and is going with my aunt. I'll just be watching it on TV like everyone else.

Jody - thinking of you and hoping things are OK.

Well, did CRF today. I'd got it into my head that because I found TTM harder that CRF wasn't too bad. So I threw my all into it from the beginning and was nearly throwing up by the end!! Silly me!
I have a holiday confession to make - I've booked a three night trip to Budapest with my best friend!! We're going in October. I know I'm not supposed to be having as many holidays this year, but I just can't help myself!! I'm a holiday addict! :p
 
Hello all! Today did PLB. Murphy, maybe it's just a twinge!? I hope you have a great time! I look forward to hearing all about it! Ronne, I did CF yesterday, goes so fast! I really enjoy that one. It's slightly easier than TTM, I'm still rotten at that one! Enjoy that warm weather! Roxie, hope your work day is going better today. We are supposed to get rain today, hopeful! Lisa, how was visit with DS? How are you feeling? You aren't opening any emails are you? Jody, how are you? Hi Becky! Today we are going to the fancy mall on the other side of town, hopefully there will be some good sales! Have a good day! Mary
 
Good Morning,

Wow my allergies are going nuts today. We got 1/2 inch of rain not enough to wet the ground but I guess we at least got some. I forgot to turn my alarm on so I barely made it to work on time. I am going out to help DD clean again so no workout for me.

Mary-have fun at the mall.

Ronne-holidays are fun.

Murphy-let that shoulder heal before you go.
 
No w/o yet, maybe I'll get in BM2 UB later, will see. I got to chatting with my FL sis this morning. It was good talking to her, we always have some good laughs, she helped me feel better about my face (guess this basal cell is very prevalent on my Mom's side....thanks for those genes!)

Mary, oooooooh fancy mall, I hope you find sales! I'm ready to get these stitches out, have dr appt for that tomorrow, then we will see how it looks. I admit I worry about that though they say normally scar is barely noticeable.

Ronne, DS20 groaned but did end up giving me a hug. I always feel so small with him, he's the tall one in the family for some reason. 5'10", the other guys are barely 5'9". Why do your holidays always sound so exotic? And here I was excited to go to Niagara Falls :) For some reason, foreign countries intimidate me.

Murphy, baby that shoulder and take lots of advil! Sounds like something that would happen to me. Do we need to remind you that you aren't getting any younger, you must be more careful. I don't even learn from my own advice. I feel like I'm fighting the age thing and starting to lose :( Must be because my birthday is coming up....I wonder if Cathe is feeling the age yet---she's mine and Mary's same age, hmmmmm Can you ask her for me? :)

Roxie, You are so consistent with your w/o's! I wouldn't count on CO being much cooler, maybe it will feel cooler for you though since you all have more triple digits than we do. I think cleaning should count as a w/o!

Jody, hope you are doing ok and that you are just too busy to checkin with us.
 
Hey girls, I had to post this funny picture I uploaded to my hair group. My face doesn't look too bad in the pic, funny how it real life I feel it looks worse. Can't wait to get the stitches out!

My post to my hair group said:
Second day party hair! The party was so wild I got a black eye and stitches. LOL

I attempted to do LIC Total Body Sculpt PM (wanted something different). i made it thru 30 min and stopped when it got to the pushups, oh well, my bi/tri/sh got a good w/o.
 
Good Evening,

We packed and cleaned some more so things should go quickly this weekend when his folks come up to help.
 
I felt the need to do something so I did some ab work. My shoulder is still bothering me a bit, but I have been babying it so I am hoping for the best. I feel a major but kicking coming on this weekend. The schedule includes some AT, TTM, CF, Barre, total body blast, spinning, BC, yoga and zumba. I am missing something. Saturday looks like almost 2 1/2 hours of workouts back to back-ish (few minutes rest in between). Yikes? I think I will need Wheaties on my Wheaties. Wish me luck!

Ronne - I LOL when I read your post. Twit seemed very appropriate. :) I am so jealous of your holidays.

Lisa - love the hair and the eye does not look too bad in the picture. It looks like it is healing nicely.

Roxie - nice job on the workouts and have fun with the folks.

Mary - how was the mall?

Jody/Becky - I hope things are okay.

Does anyone know what happened to the other person who joined? I cannot remember her name - was her husband in the military?
