40's falling for you

Good Afternoon,

I have been busy up until now so I haven't been able to post. Tonite I will do KCM Lower Body Split. I have no idea how the baby is today I haven't asked and dd has not let me know.

Lisa-she thinks that breast fed babies are not suppose to have colic, but I know she has trouble burping him because she is afraid to pat to hard so he has no relief from air in his tummy. She isn't asking for help won't even let us see him.

Mary-she doesn't have to figure it out on her own and I am here to help her she just needs to ask for it and listen to what I tell her.

Ronne-its 4 hours of crying every evening for 3 months and until now there was nothing you could do to help them out, they are gassy and throwup alot.
 
I tried to do a DVD, but wasn't happy with the one I picked out. Michelle D's Cardio Interval Burn so I only did about 10 min. I don't think I made it out of the warmup. I like the setup of the workout but its fast paced, a little dancy, and with quick changes just leave me confused and behind. I've done it before and liked it, so its kind of hit-and-miss with me.

Hubby stayed home from work today because he caught a GI virus, so I'm waiting to see if I got it too. Yip-ee! I cancelled Knit Night because if I did have it I didn't want to spread it around.

I've been watching the CrossFit games which I didn't know exsisted until I saw them mentioned here at CN. Watching the games and learning more about they way the train has made me think that maybe I should try more things unrelated to DVDs. Like Hubby and I throwing a ball around in the backyard or taking the dog for more walks. We are generally more active outside in the winter than the hot and humid summer anyway.

Scuba, I do knit quite a bit, just not this past month. My fingers needed a break I guess. I like to knit easy things while we are watching TV or when I ride in the car. Most of the things I make I donate or give as gifts. I like hats, baby sweaters, and prayer shawls,. My church started a Knitting ministry a few years ago, so when I finish a few things I can drop them off there.
 
Roxie, your dd hormones are probably out of whack. Mom and I got into a big fight after our second was born. She came from Florida and I had to call dh at work and he came home to smooth things out, otherwise she would have left. The fight was stupid and I felt inept and here I should know what I was doing since it was my second. But really it was just an emotional hormone mess. I hope dd comes around.

And just another glorious day here at the falls, lovely, just lovely. Really. Enjoying this trip.
 
Its been a weird busy couple of days.

Night before last dd melted chicken in the microwave. I kept dreaming about the smoke until I finally woke up and ran downstairs yelling about fire (this was 40 min or so after the event and everyone was in bed.) 2 days later our home still smells like smoke.

I saw the new OMT students - they looked smart, professional and have pretty scrubs. I'll have to update yall on school but things are going ok but still awkward.

We caught the Romney motorcade going up 95 today. Result was dd missed TKD and I missed my run, but it was kinda cool watching the process of shutting down the interstate and all the cops (probably 150 + motorcyles and cars) all with lights on and at the end 5 state troopers abreast blocking all five lanes and the regular traffic following along behind.

Roxie, good luck with it all. Lisa, I can tell you are having fun, that is awesome. Ronne, 4Ds seems to be going around, maybe I'll get it out this weekend. Mary, i was going to ask you something but I can't remember. Hi to Peng and Murphy (whose stuff is too far back for me to see and I can't remember what she posted but I think its Cathe enthusiatic back to workouts.)

Hi all

Jody - I can't imagine how you can melt chicken?!! :p Wow - no wonder you had nightmares! Hope the weekend is a bit more relaxing for you!

Lisa - you sound like you're having such a good time!

Mary - I agree that the kids have to take more responsibility for getting their stuff together, getting to lessons etc. but she's only been there two weeks and she's 11! I also wonder how you scale punishments up if you start with detention for forgetting something?!
DWP is my favourite Hiit!

Did a longer workout today as ended up having a bit more time. Pulled out the only Tracie Long I own, can't remember what it's called. Mix of cardio and functional weights. Always feel well worked by the end. Got friends coming for dinner tomorrow night, so lots of housecleaning and prep to do!
 
Good Morning,

I forgot to report last nights workout, I did KCMs Split Sessions Lower Body and I know I won't be able to walk by the end of the day but I am going to have to try so I can go to the gym and do cardio. DD has granted us permission to see the little guy tonite.
 
We all jumped earlier when a huge kaboom of thunder rang out, shook the house and knocked something over in the attic, which is Hubby’s problem now.

Today is my odd-jobs day. odd job 1) kill strange bug in bathroom * check* Ewww!

Roxie, glad to hear you get to see GS again.

Ronne, enjoy the visit
 
Hi girls! Today was PS CS&T. Arms still shaky! Ronne, have fun with your dinner. Are you making something good? Roxie, love that baby! Jody, it is amazing how the President and Romney stop the world when they come visit your state! We are by the airport, we get backed up a lot, especially this time of year! Penguin, dont like bugs much! Lisa, hope vacation is going well! Murphy, are you still with Cathe? Have to get moving, DD is playing the bass drum tonite, she is so excited! Normally she is stuck on cymbals! Mary
 
I did Cathe's TB Trisets 'TB Scrambled' premix. I had weights everywhere; with split workouts I don't have to get everything I own out, lol. I had to pause twice to go get equipment, stab ball and step, I could have done without the step but the SB was used a lot. There's a nice mix of weight and bodyweight exercises, which kept my HR up the whole time. I'm not real happy when the cardio effect interfers with my lifting but it wasn't too bad that I had to stop or rest.

Hubby has to go out of town for work most of next week. They are sending him to a training class and they gave everyone uniform allowences {months overdue now}. We are a tad confused since they are closing the hanger, but maybe they really expect everyone to transfer?

Scuba, tomorrow is Fall, I guess its that time of year. ewww
 
Mary or anyone, any ideas for presenting the flow of blood from the systemic thru pulmonary and back out to systemic again?w/ pizzazz in a group? Its just the basic flow of of blood but she wants something memorable, not a power point. Of course, I instantly thought we should bellydance thru it, but I'm pretty much alone on that. : )

Mary, i hope dd has fun, is this her debut as a drummer? Ronne, she left a frozen tender in micro for about 5 min instead of 2.5, it wasn't quite melted but it was beyond recognition. Roxie I hope you get to have a nice visit. Waves to all~
 
Hi all

Weekend workout report - I know, what happened? :p Did TTM premix, everything except Compund Legs, 46 mins, perfect. Felt a bit sick towards the end as it wasn't that long after breakfast. Oh well!

Penguin - that must be one heck of a thunderclap!

Jody - you could all paint your faces? Or pass a painted orange from chin to chin like in the party game?!! :eek:

Mary - I made a coffee semi-freddo last night and put it in the freezer, it's like a fake ice-cream block with bits of chopped up chocolate in it. The mix tasted nice so I hope it turns out alright!!

Roxie - hope you had fun with GS.

OK, now for some floor cleaning!
 
Just finished most of S&G. Those burpees get me everytime. Sorry for being absent this week; it has been crazy. Hopefully I will be back into the groove of things. Waves to all.

Murphy
 
We had a slight hope that Hubby would have a job past Dec, but we got the news yesterday that it won't happen. The company has just decided to shut down here in Memphis; there's no talk of asking people to transfer, thanks for your 20 years of service. Just Goodbye. Which is why its so weird to send Hubby for training next week. Now?

Today is cardio day and I get to clean house. My shoulders and triceps are sore from yesterdays workout, too.

Funny story. April is not allowed on the furniture, but we know she sneaks up on the love seat while we are gone. So when my parents came to pick me up for Bible study on Thurs, Hubby was curled up on the couch when we left. As I was locking the door I hear Hubby yell "NO! Bad dog!". April had forgotten that Hubby was home and tried to climb up on the love seat as I was leaving. LOL. We decided we need to try that again sometime. Silly Dog!
 
Ronne that might just be brilliant! There are 4 of us- so maybe we can toss the blood cell from one to another as it travels thru the larger vessels and pass the blood cell via neck when it goes thru capillaries at tissue and pulmonary system? Someone can narrate. Venous side of the pass can be blue shirt...
 
Hi girls! Today did PS legs, always a favorite! Ronne, awesome idea for Jody! Your dessert sounds amazing too! Can we come for dinner? Penguin, good thoughts for you and DH. Murphy, good job with S&G, I kind of avoid that one! Jody, maybe you could make up a song to go along with your game? Like a rap song? Then maybe it would stick in people's heads? Roxie, how's that baby? Lisa, safe travels today! Date night tonight! Have a good day! Mary
 
Good Evening,

I didn't workout last night my lower back is killing me I did however vaccum both staircases and then cleaned DH's bathroom and the living room. Spent the day grocery shopping and then we priced upholstry for the boat.
