40s - bugs galore!

Hey girls, thanks for thinking of me, working on prayer and meditation and staying present to my tasks at hand. Plus I didn't workout on MTW. : P Yesterday eve I did the bootcamp class at the rec plus the 3 mile walk.

Regarding the school path, I'd pretty much decided OMT (lots of jobs, lower stress work environment) but couldn't bring myself to shut the RT door (easy school, make 45+ grand a year, sooner than OMT). I might get to talk to RT program director on Mon. Its likely to put me in the 50/50 camp again. : (

Ronne, Budapest does sound exotic and fun. Enjoy.
Lisa, glad you are feeling better, it looks like things are coming along. I'm not going to any of your parties though, ouch! and who knows, maybe Ronne wishes she could go to Niagra? lol
Roxie, you are a good mom. Just about the only thing you let get in the way of a workout is helping dd.
Mary, good luck at the mall, looking for back to school? Both of my girls hate to shop.
Murphy, are you off to RT today? If the workouts get too crazy, just point to your injury and take a break. : >
I hope all is well with each of you today~
 
Hi all

Jody - good to see you. Sounds like you earned a workout break - we've been working out for you here ...

Murphy - you're supposed to do all that in a weekend? That sounds like a month's rotation!!! :eek:

Lisa - Niagara is exotic to me!! You made me laugh with the party comment. Give yourself a break with the workouts - come back when you're properly ready. Go do some cleaning instead!! :p

Roxie - bad luck with the allergies!

Mary - so how did he shopping go?

Well, I stink, literally! Builder came to fix our toilet this morning and while he was here he resealed the shower (without me asking). I can't have a shower till after 4pm. Did KM (minus the intensity blasts) and so have to sit here the rest of the day smelling till I can have a shower!
No workouts this weekend as we're off to my parents to pick up DD. Have a good one everyone.
 
Good Morning,

I got up and went to spin class this morning just in case I don't get to workout tonite not quite sure what the plan is, if I am able I want to do the second workout the trainer left me but we will see. We did some more packing last night and finished cleaning the kitchen so there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Muphy-you crazy lady take care of yourself you are in for one tough weekend.

Jody-sounds like you still have alot of decisions to make.

Ronne-after we finish cleaning and moving and the kids moving in with us for 3 days with their dog my allergies should get better.
 
Hi girls! Today did LICH, a premix. Murphy, have fun!!! Don't forget to take some Advil with you! We will be waiting to hear all the details! Jody, glad to see you. Good luck with your decisions. Sometimes is so hard to decide which road to take. Ronne, enjoy your weekend, DD is probably so excited to see you! Budapest in October and Spain inAugust! You are a lucky girl! Roxie, good job on waking up early, don't know if I could do it! Lisa, how are you feeling? It looks like it is healing really well! Hair looks good too! Hi Becky! Mall was good. DS wanted to go to the Lego store, he has been saving his money for a Harry Potter set. Now his collection is complete! He is a happy boy! Not sure what we will get up to today, hope everyone has a good day! Mary
 
Hi ladies! Slept in today but still got in S&G express cardio PM. I was a sweaty mess. I thought it would be short and easy, I was right about the short part :) Not sure if it's the humidity making me sweat more than normal or the fact I didn't wear a sweatband. Yes, I must confess, I have to wear those or sweat gets in my eyes bad. I look like I'm from the 80's!

Ronne, cleaning lady came yesterday, she just doesn't clean like I would (but then I take longer). But it's nice not to have to do it and try to overlook what I wish she had cleaned better :rolleyes: I bet you are ready to have DD back, I bet you've missed her!

Roxie, I bet you will be glad when all that house stuff is done. You are so great to help them like you do, but that's what we do for our kids :)

Murphy, yes take Advil! I always have some for my hikes and it never fails someone at the top needs them (a stranger) and they trust us and take them from us when we offer them up :) You tend to get headaches at the very high altitudes, better safe than sorry!

Mary, I feel like I sound like a mess sometimes, wondering if there are more spots brewing in my hair area, sigh. Love my genetics, but I keep telling myself it could be worse. Sounds like you had a good time shopping, did you find anything or was it a kid trip?

Jody, so glad to hear from you. Good to not close doors. I'm sure it's a tough decision, and we will support you either way!
 
Here is what I sent work about my dr appt today.

Had a followup doctor appt today. It's healing good, but dr agrees to give it another week so I'll be WFH next week too. He was a bit surprised at how battered and bruised I got and still swollen a bit. I'm not surprised as I'm a delicate orchid. OK, you can stop laughing now, at least I'm getting my sense of humor back. Also while I was there, I pointed out a couple more areas and, yep, they were what they call pre-cancerous which turns into squameous cancer so had those frozen off so those are all nice and red too. Sounds like there will be options in a month or so if the redness persists (doc mentioned laser therapy).
 
Lisa, I'm glad you got the other spots taken care of, good catch. I'm at the gyn next week for some issues. : (
I did a 20 min jog this aft while dd had her braces removed - great results btw and she is so happy to have them off. Came home and did Back Chest abs and Legs from HR, so I'm all caught up on body parts. I am considering drill max for tomorrow.
I've really cleaned up my diet this month, I've lost 10 pounds since July 1. Go greens.
Olympic ceremony - the Queen's corgis made me tearful, she had a smiley one like Brownie who died a few months ago and a slightly derpy one like Punkin. You can't have just one. I wonder if they were actors or her dogs.
 
Woke up with headache again and itchy wounds. Headache normally means rain and we did get some yesterday so my head says we may get some today too. I started LBB, only got 10 min in, then decided on something shorter, so did 1st 15 min of AT and core of AT. So about a 30 min w/o.

Jody, hope all goes well at gyn next week and most importantly congrats on weight loss! That's great! I briefly saw the corgis, you will feel that melancholy feeling when you see corgis, I still do when I see shelties.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!
 
Hi girls! Today was MM. Lisa, thank goodness they got those spots off so you won't have to go thru that other business again! It has been raining for 2 days here, hopefully our grass will turn a little green instead of brown! Sounds like a good combo of work outs! Is anyone watching the road trip? I saw the fast feet shuffle this morning, not my favorite! Jody, hope all goes well next week. When I first read it I thought you were sad about going to the gym?! Sometimes I don't like being a girl! I did see the corgis, I thought they were the Queen"s? Roxie, did you get rain? I wonder if Murphy is having fun? Hi to Ronne, (she's away?) Hope everyone has a good day, Mary
 
Hi,
I wonder how Murph is doing at rt, I hope having fun. RT-->workout clothes -->I was at mall today, we have a lulumon (sp?) store now. I didn't look (can't afford, don't need anyway). I was headed to Gap to see if their smallest jeans looked like they would fit dd 16. She's 5'5 and about 105 pounds.
I met w/ good friend and advisor today for helpful chat time. Before that I did Drill max up for 40 min before I cut short.
Lisa, nice workout, hope wounds get thru the scratchy part asap.
Mary, I'd like to watch, but my lap top is glitchy on video. I'd like to see the ambiance and energy of road trip.
Roxie, what are you up to this weekend? Boat or more cleaning and packing? I recall dog sitting?
Waves to all.
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I went to the gym and did intervals on the TM then the wt machines. The kids said they didn't need our help so we went to the lake and hungout on the boat.

Mary-please send the rain our way, we are in a thunderstorm watch but doesn't look like we are going to get any.

Jody-dog sitting was last week.

Lisa-did you end up getting any rain?
