40's sprinting into Christmas

Good Evening,

Tonite I did TF 30 and it was so much easier in my new room since its low pile carpet on top of concrete.
 
Hello

Murphy - are the kids getting excited? My DD is just counting down the days!

Lisa - feeling any better today?

Hi to Roxie, Mary and Jody.

Did the cardio only from S&G and the cardio blast from LICh. Still not sure about S&G cardio - it's certainly hard but I'm not sure I enjoy it. I'll persevere.

Baking and decorating biscuits with DD today - or attempting to! The dough's still too crumbly to roll so it's in the freezer at the moment. Sometimes I just don't think I'm much good at the baking mum thing! I spend all this money on ingredients and then half the time it's inedible!!!
 
Good Morning,

I am not working today I have 2 dr. appointments one was suppose to be for my yearly exam but aunt flo decided to show up last night but I still plan on keeping it because I woke up coughing again so better make sure I don't have pneumonia like the boss lady and then I have an eye appointment to pick up another set of contacts. Today is MM.

Ronne-I to plan on doing some more holiday baking and cleaning.
 
No w/o again, I'm taking everyone's advice and resting up. I'm not sure if I feel better or not yet, I sure hope so. Last night felt awful again, but slept 10 hrs. I'm hoping the coffee helps the throat cuz that's my biggest complaint with this virus.

Ronne, how fun to have young children for Christmas!

Roxie, hope you feel better too.

Short and sweet checkin today, I don't have any energy even for typing :confused:
 
Quick check in! Did S&G, poorly I might add! Getting ready to go see Santa. Baking and more shopping! Lisa, I hope you feel better. Take some snoozes. Roxie, have fun! I go next week! Ronne, I'm with you on the baking! Murphy, Jody hello! Ttyl! Mary
 
Well first dr. appointment over and my blood work shows my cholesterol is up again guess I need to crack down on the eating again. Got my flu shot all is good.
 
I did Cardio and Wts premix (step only)- Fun.

Have fun with all that holiday baking. On Christmas, I am having my (divorced) parents here and cooking dinner for one of the first times ever. My bf gave me a little silver Christmas tree I wanted that reminded me of the kind we had when I was a kid (silver with blue balls and magical rotating color wheel).

Hope everyone is feeling healthier soon! Have a great afternoon~
 
Good morning, it's snowing here! I think there are at least 10 inches out there. While I could get excited about that being as how it's almost Christmas (ie. White Christmas here), the fact is I still feel awful. I'm thinking I need to get myself to the dr, thinking that maybe this is strep throat. So yea, I get to get out in the snow and to the dr all while feeling awful. nice.
 
Drive carefully and feel better soon, Lisa! Let us know what you find out.

Roxie, holidays will be over soon and those cookies will all be gone, so you will be on track in no time.

I took 1.5 hour of dance class yest. eve so bonus for me. Not sure what my workout will be yet today. BBL to say hi to all and report w/o.
 
Hi all

Did Turbobarre LB express premix - ouch!! DD joined inwhich made it more fun - although her giggling put me off! Got a last bit of work to sort out today/tomorrow and then I'm truly finished! Going to get a few Christmas goodies with DH in a while. Oh and the festive biscuits turned out really well and DD did a great job decorating them!

Jody - good luck with the cooking! You're braver than me!

Lisa - poor you! White Christmas sounds lovely but I'd rather be here!

Mary - sounds like you're busy! What did the kids get from Santa? No more visits for me now DD is 10, oh well!

Roxie - bad news about the cholesterol!
 
Morning! Lisa, get to the dr! Strep throat is miserable, be careful on the roads! Ronne, my kids are 13 and 10, I make them go for the picture! Little one still believes tho, the older 2 humor me! Jody, what are you making? I have to get to the grocery store today. Our cookies turned out fabulous as well! Roxie, cholesterol is frustrating. Murphy, what are you doing? I am going to go do KCM plyo and go brave the store! Lisa, let us know what the dr says! Mary
 
Good Morning,

Tonite for me is LM Step only. I didn't get MM done I was busy all day but I am getting off work early tomarrow so I should be able to get caught up. I still need to make peanut clusters and then I am done.

Lisa-we are getting light snow not suppose to amount to anything and GET YOUR BUTT TO THE DR.

Mary-its good someone still believes.

Ronne-its my own fault I have had a problem with it for the last 5 years just not very good about taking care of it.

Jody-that is what I keep telling myself one more week and back on track.
 
Beautiful day here in South FL, around 80 with slight breeze- clear blue skies and a couple of puffy clouds...maybe I will add a walk later.

I completed HIS step and chest from MM.

Re dinner, its a win win situation (or lose lose, depending on how you look at it.) My dad will appreciate the effort (if not the food) and eat anything I make, even if he won't say so or act like he enjoys it. My mom, otoh, will say its wonderful and yet will actually be bitterly disappointed b/c it isn't how or what she cooks. DD 18 would prefer Kraft Mac but be happy if we have ham and DD 16 will probably love everything. See? Its all good~ : D
 
Back from Dr. Not strep. Hemophilus influenza bacteria, he's seeing a lot of it. Got me a RX for augmentin (I can't take the z-pack or eurthromyacin). Said I MAY have been able to fight it off on my own but the antibiotic will speed things along (I'm about ready to rip out my throat). Says it's similar to the HIB vaccine the kids get and MAYBE that vaccine will protect them from getting this from me, let's hope so!
 
Roxie, DH has high cholesterol (a lot of his is genetic). He hates the way the medication makes him feel (heard the same thing from his father), so he doesn't take it as often as he should. Anyway, I got Red Yeast Rice supplement for him to take, it's supposed to help, we will see in about 10 months or so when he goes for his next checkup.
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I did LM Step had a good workout but not a great one.

Lisa-thanks for the tip. I took Lipitor but it made my legs ache so I quit taking it and I like grapefruit and you aren't suppose to take them together.
 
Lisa, that sounds terrible! Sounds worse than strep! Hope you are feeling better. Roxie, my DH takes fish oil, it has helped and with the exercise, his cholesterol has come down. Ronne, did you finish your work? Jody, did you finish shopping? Today I will do kickboxing? I need to finish stocking stuffers, make dinner for tomorrow, we have a bowling party, a party tonite also!? I also have to start wrapping! I better get moving! Hope everyone has a good day! Murphy, hi to you if you see this! Mary
 
Feeling a bit better, I can at least swallow with a little less pain. Can't wait to take the next pill! I slept 9.5 hrs last night, no w/o. Gee, this feels like a how much did I sleep checkin than a workout checkin :)

Mary, hearing all your holiday happenings makes me realize that it is CHRISTMAS! That and the 14 inches of snow outside! Just heard on the news, we've had more snow already this year than we did all of last season, OY!
 
Good Morning,

I got up and did KCM's KBX workout #1. I am so sick I have a horrible cough and my nose is running good thing I am working half a day. Today is my daughters 24th birthday we are going out tonite to celebrate. I am going to do MM when I get off.

Lisa-glad to hear you are feeling better.

Mary-we are hoping with diet and exercise we will both get ours to come down.
 
Hi all

Wow it's been busy around here. Apologies if I forget anything!

Lisa - so that sounds worse than you thought! At least you've got some drugs to sort you out. Hope you're feeling better for Christmas. Sounds like you need Hibernate Max with all that snow!

Jody - ah, the dynamics of family life, the gift that keeps on giving!

Roxie - woah, take it easy with the workouts if you're feeling crappy!

Mary - you sound like you're very busy!! Have fun while you're running around!

This morning we did the supermarket shop (or battle!). Anyway, that's done now. Had to get back to work as soon as we got in and I've only just finished. Supposed to be doing Trisets UB and that's the last one of the rotation! Then I'll probably have a week off.
Won't be back now till next week sometime so have a lovely Christmas whatever you're doing and make sure you get someone to look after you at some point and give yourselves a break!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS!!!
