40's losing our leaves

I'm not hiding, kind of had a pissy day. I did get in STS Meso2 wk 3 Back only. Norway: DH talked to them, could be a LOT of work, they are also talking to a few other people (none of them are USA, some from Europe), so guess they will need to evaluate who that what and what demands they can meet. DH gave them a list of our demands (pay for me, pay for place to live, pay for food overthere, pay for someone to watch our house, pay for train over there, can't remember what else). So, we are if it happens it's meant to be, if not, it wasn't meant to be. But dealing with my crappy cheap company today makes me think they will pick the cheapest person (don't all large companies do that?) Now onto my company, they requested us contractors take off 4 days with no pay by 12/28, now today it's changed to 7 days by 12/7. Then on top of it it is only hearsay because our contracting company contact is out of the office (guess they haven't heard of having a backup). They whole thing is a joke. The regular employees are being told if they take time off (ie vacation), they must work the same amount of time to make up for the time off. I'm sure all of this is to line some CEO's pockets. On top of it all, the group that is suppose to migrate me to the new machine told me I was late (I thought it was a window from 8-5, not that I had to be there from 8-5) and that I have to reschedule. I have to SIT WITH THEM THE WHOLE TIME they do whatever they do, I just think the whole thing is stupid, lack of communication and I just have no time for stupid today.

Off to eat pizza....hmmmmm, maybe some wine too. Sorry for lack of personals.

Oh, snow is coming, I'm so fed up with work I'm going to work from home again so I can pick up my new glasses and not fight the stupid people that forgot how to drive in snow over the summer.

Yea, I'm pretty crabby.....going to go dig out some wine now! STAT!
 
They found the person that killed that 10 year old girl. He was 17, his mom notified the police

OK, I did the bi's from STS meso2, wk3. I did LWI (anyone guess what that stands for?)....I also worked out some frustration and surprisingly the weights I normally use didn't seem heavy enough....hmmmm
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I did CLX Burn Circuit 2 for the last time and I am so looking forward to my recovery week starting Monday.

Lisa-major corporations are a pain in the butt.
 
Lisa, I didn't realize/remember that Norway would be a move rather than a visit! No idea on the lwi?
I've got to increase my self care- sleep and setting limits plus eating and drinking enough water and not so much yerba mate tea. Spending all day in a tiny classroom is making me nuts. It is so cramped that about half the time someone gets up, another person has to move out of their way. My midterm grade was an 88 which is not what I am used to getting at all. It will probably go up once they look at all the grades - the avg was 59, but I'll know in my heart I missed 12 percent when I should have missed 0.
Oh and cell phones have really revolutionized cheating.
Ronne ha ha to Mary's chauffeur-max
Roxie, last time as in done with a rotation or you just don't care to ever use that workout again? I think that is what you said before.
Waves to Murphy
 
Hi, I am back. The computer is up and I am on... I did AB, 95 % of it. I even did most of the burpees and stuff. I had to modify once I started to get really winded. Anyway, lots of stuff going on here on the forum. I have to catch up. Someone asked if I saw that they finsished filming- yes!!!! I am really looking forward to it - as I am to every new item Cathe puts out. :)

Murphy
 
Hello

Murphy - glad to have you back!

Jody - the internet as a whole has made a big difference to cheating. A lot of universities have to use software to mark students' essays, looking for language that's been lifted from elsewhere. Make sure you take care of yourself Jody, can't do anything properly if you're not looking after yourself.

Roxie - sounds like you're glad to see the back of that!

Lisa - no idae on lwi - lost weight instantly?!! Work schmork!!

Mary - that's funny I prefer the floorwork to the standing in BG.

Did 4DS UB premix - skipped a couple of things and added a stretch and managed to bring it in at just over an hour. Work is completely quiet today - after three days of non-stop trying to finish for a deadline. Oh well, I'm going to clean and polish the leather furniture. Make good use of my time!!
 
My humor was lost even on Jody! I had wine, I went and lifted weights....LWI = lifting while intoxicated. I slept horribly last night all the daytime stuff just flowed over into my body making me anxious and tense so have been awake since 2am. I really SHOULD w/o, but I'm feeling like I have to be a rebel somewhere so I'll show them all and skip my w/o. lol Somehow I feel that is only hurting me, but I really don't have the energy. Oh, another reason I couldn't get back to sleep, hungry (lifting is making me more hungry), get up get a bite of a protein bar, get back in bed, my FEET ARE COLD NOW, they don't warm up so get heating pad to warm them up, they get warm, I'M STILL HUNGRY, go eat rest of bar, have to reheat feet, give up and get up!

Jody, I totally understand how stressful that environment can be I wish I had words of wisdom but i don't. Even yesterday in the office I couldn't even think straight enough to figure out when I would take my 7 days unpaid off. Too much talk to think, especially when people either talk loudly or in whispers. When they whisper you TRY to eavesdrop! lol

Ronne, are you sure Mary hasn't inhabited your body with your polishing?

Murphy, welcome back.

Roxie, snow here today. I've had headaches for last couple days, weather related probably.

Jody, the Norway gig would be a temporary assignment until March (which could be april/may).

Mary, Jody got 2 personal lines from me so she stole yours :) I'm so tired with headache I can't even see straight. Forgive me!
 
Good Morning,

90 degrees yesterday 40 degrees today to big of a change. I think DH wants to go see GS tonite so I will probably go to the gym do some cardio and then eat supper so we can go.

Jody-last time in this rotation, I am onto the Push Phase starting next week. School does not sound like fun.

Lisa-I couldn't sleep last night either it was to hot in the house.

Ronne-good job with your workout and yes I am glad to have that behind me.

Murphy-I didn't know they finished filming I can't wait to get these.
 
Hi girls! Today did the upper body only from MIS. Lisa haha on drinking and lifting! That's something I haven't tried yet! Hope sleep finds you tonite. Oh, and keep your snow! 85 here today, the cold is coming tho! Roxie, that is a huge difference in temp! Enjoy that baby! Jody, maybe they will drop some questions from the test? Take care of yourself! It is so hard to go back to school when we are grown ups with responsibility! Murphy, glad everything is working! Not too much running today, that all starts tomorrow and thru the weekend, today I will clean since we have football, cross country, basketball and band concert this weekend. I thought football would be done tomorrow, but nooooo! They made the playoffs! It's going to continue! Have a good evening! Mary
 
lol, Mary congrats on playoffs. The test was challenging + comprehensive but not bad and the questions came from a test bank from our text. I'm just mad b/c I know to read and outline the text better than I did - its what the Board exam will be based upon.
The director/profs will meet w/ each student next tues for eval when they will "recommend" you drop out (or not) before withdraw date due to failing grades or whatever. My smart a** mouth may get me in the whatever category.

Lisa, I know, my radar goes up when I hear low talkers. Temporary Oslo sounds good, perfect really.

I had tea w/ besties scheduled Fri aft but realized I made plans to see my mom and bro on Fri eve and fellow student is holding me to study commitment on Sat. I'm out of supplements and greens and stuffles.

Ronne, I'd nap on the furniture, not polish it~

Roxie, I hope u got some cuddles in.

Murphy, I don't know why, but I always want to do whatever workout you do but that doesn't make sense b/c I'm a step lover and you aren't but anyway, I often think Oh I wanna do that.
 
LOL Jody - Today I did a S&G premix. Be sure to put that one on your list. :) I don't know why I do some of these shorter premixes. I always want to do more and feel like I should b/c they are short and I am used to exercising longer. Funny, I don't feel that way when doing a "short" HiiT workout. Hmmm. ;-)

Murphy
 
lol

just thought i'd start my post with that to copy the cool girls!!

Well, it's the last day of half-term, DD has a week off school and we all need a rest! Clocks go back this weekend so we get a lie-in on Sunday and don't have to get up in the dark for a while!
Did TTM, the premix that subs the Fitness Tabata for Compound Legs. I always have to do the stretch with my eyes shut because the sweat is stinging!

Jody - sounds like you deserve a nap. It's hard going back to university at our age!

Murphy - well done on the workout - doesn't matter what the length is, you did it!

Mary - do you do any lift-sharing with other parents?

Roxie - have you tried your new KCMs yet? I'm waiting for your report :D

Lisa - give yourself a break woman, you are allowed not to workout sometimes!! I must admit I can't imagine doing LWI - I'd probably drop something on my head!

Have a good weekend all!
 
lol the cool gggggirrrlllsss, oh wait does that make me cool? I've never been cool!

Ronne, thanks for giving the green light to my rest day, I feel another coming on. I've had headaches with the weather we've been having (snow). Thankfully I was lifting bi's when LWI, I did see where it was good I didn't have any weights over my head!

Mary, been meaning to ask you, who is going to be the pres? They say whoever Ohio votes for is the pres. I'm tired of being in a swing state and all the political ads, gah! Same for Jody, can't tell if Murphy is in a swing state as the NE is just a mass of states.

Jody, my smart a** mouth is probably getting me in trouble with the guy that will be migrating my machine at work. Knowing my luck I will get him next Monday and he'll remember my smart a** comments and make me pay somehow. Norway, still don't know, last we heard now was DH flying out, staying 2 wks, fly home for a week, repeat. THAT SOUNDS AWFUL and I don't know they think it saves $? It's easily a 12-14hr flight! eta: Norway is off....takes 6-8 wks to get a work visa and that will be too late to help them with the work. I kind of feel relieved.

Murphy, I'd love to copy your w/o, heck right now I feel I should do a w/o. Trying to decide, do I want to w/o or go shopping.....hmmmmm

Roxie, I bet you aren't cold anymore!!!!!!! Furnace is ON here!

Good Morning,

Lol at everyone. It started out here today at 34 degrees brrr not ready for the cold. I didn't sleep very well last night my tooth is bothering me again and I had some really weird dreams. DH starts his new job on Monday they called last night. I plan on going to the gym and them doing CLX Circuit Burn 3 and I really need some ab work.

Lisa-it is only suppose to be 50 today and yes the furnace is on.

Ronne-I will try one of those as soon as this gym membership ends next week.

Jody-watch your mouth remember these people are determining your future lol. I definetly got my cuddles in.

Murphy-length of workout is why I can't wait for the new ones.

Mary-congrats to your sons team that is quite and accomplishment.
 
Lisa - I am in NJ and it is NOT a swing state. We are mostly democratic. Our Governor is a repbulican and he is the one out there stumping for everyone (Gov. Christie).
 
Hi all! Today did a premix from CF. Lisa, I cannot tell you how many commercials, radio and tv, the phone calls, the mail, we are bombarded! I can hardly wait until this election is over! I'm sure Jody is overwhelmed also! Jody, I'm sure they won't recommend for you to leave! Murphy, I think I have done S&G two times, not my favorite! Ronne, I hate when the sweat gets in my eyes! I am pretty much the only driver in the afternoon, everyone else has a 9 to 5 job, so I get all the afternoon running! It's ok tho, it will come back somewhere else, I hope! Roxie, yay on the job! What a relief for you guys! DS doesn't play football, (he's 5'5" and 92 lbs!). DD is in the band, we go to yell and scream for her! It's going to rain again! Tha makes it miserable! Now, will you be able to get that tooth fixed? Well, time to start the running again. Small request, DD is trying out for basketball team this weekend, if you could send some positive energy here to Ohio it would be much appreciated! Remember last year she didn't make the cut! She would be over the moon! Have a good one, Mary
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I went to the gym then came home and did CLX Burn Circuit 3.

Ronne-I am on a recovery week starting Monday so I will try out the KCMs for you.

Mary-sending hoops vibe to dd.
 
I did CSS again. This time I modified less and skipped one thing. I am spent. I am also looking forward to geting my butt kicked by the new series too. :) I love to see when the post the premixes and times. I feel like we are that much closer to having them in our sweaty little hands.

Mary - hoop vibes sent!

Roxie - you went to the gym and then went home and worked out? Way to work it.

Murphy
