40's - week of 2/26/12

Good Morning,

Tonite for me is EB's Fat Burning Pilates. All the bad weather missed me and my family.

Ronne-thanks for the well wishes good job with your workout. I don't like to work my calves mine are naturally big so don't want to make them bigger.
 
Hi all! Wowzers did I sleep last night....I must be catching up from my not sleeping last week. I fell asleep during Biggest Loser at the halfway point and it had just finished up when I woke up. Went off to bed, slept another 8.5 hrs, that's a total of 9.5 hrs. I must have needed it! Did LIC (the older one), I love that music! My pecs are sore today from those bench presses.

Roxie, glad the bad weather missed you, we have our wonderful wind here still.

Mary, If this new job ever comes thru for DH (the HR is sooooo slow) he might be going to Jersey city. I was wondering if I should go for a week or not. I know Cathe is near there, but I wouldn't go there alone! I figured Murphy may chime in.

Ronne, guess I figured Europeans drank more tea. Are you just not typical? So are you smart from editing all those schoolbooks? :)

Jody, Hoping you join us after your M,T,W madness.

I think that's it....work calls.....
 
Lisa - Jersey City has the Liberty Science Center. I have not been there in years but it was nice. I think they were renovating it the last time. It was not pretty on the outside and a bit out of the way, but the inside was nice and interesting.

Ronne/Roxie - I have "man calves" or as a coworker calls them, "skier calves". I saw a nice redefining with the LIS series. It must be those 10 thousand calf raises in Turbo Barre.
 
Lisa-its really windy here today. I had to drive the company vehicle and it is a small delivery truck rocked me all the way back.
 
Hi all! I did HR today. Lisa, are you moving to Jersey? Or is it just like a business trip? You and Murphy can go see Cathe together! Roxie, thought about you this morning when I saw the news, glad you all are safe. Ronne, I don't really do calves either. They have never been an issue and I don't want big bulky ones! You are comitted to work at home, I would probably procrastinate too much! Hi Jody and Murphy! Thank goodness, next week is spring break. Will be nice to putz around all day! Mary
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I did Fat Burning Pilates and I wish I could get a better calorie burn but I am suppose to be taking it easy until next month.

Mary-the town Harveyville is about 2 hours south east of us.
 
Hi! Lemme catch up...

Lisa, agree with Ronne, wowsers to benching 65. I also did LIC on Tues = Fun. : ) do you do it as circuit or the cardio only premix?

Murphy, I am more like you on the LIS Abs results.

Mary, we are spring break next week too, yay!

Roxie, I used to live in OK, I was glad I didn't ever deal with a tornado.

Ronne, I think your job sounds like the most fun ever. Seriously. Well, maybe not Fun Fun, but fun and satisfying.

Today I did AT Leg express pm, I didn't use any slow mo bionic music! Tues I did LIC and Mon I subbed for a friend's bd class. Did you guys see that Davy Jones died? : ( I loved each and every one of those boys. Sigh.

Hi all

Jody - it is good - most of the time. Sometimes it gets a bit frustrating but it is nice to actually produce something physical at the end of it all.

Roxie - you be careful out there!

Mary - Have you got any plans for spring break? How long are the kids off for?

Lisa - Actually, Europe is more coffee-drinking and the UK more tea. Brits always complain about getting a decent cup of tea abroad. I am a bit odd in not drinking it at all (I do drink green tea and stuff like that).
What happens with my work is that I know all about a subject at a particular level for a few months while I'm working on something and then it all goes out of my head again! Not much use really!

Did LM premix 1 today. Burned way more calories than the WM reckoned. Sun is shining and sky is clear - spring is on its way!
 
Hi girls! Today was 4DS LB weights. Thought of you all while I did the calves (I don't mind working them, makes my legs shapely :) ) Then added on LIC abs. woot! I think I'm back into workout mode.

Mary, no, not moving just a possible business trip. I'm just itching to go somewhere. Spring break already? DS19 is the following week (as is his birthday), we are thinking of skiing......I'm ready for some time off!

Jody, I do the cardio premix of LIC. I don't know how I can bench 65 for that many reps and still not be able to do a proper pushup on my toes for more than a few. I'll just blame my weight load of my body!

Ronne, spring IS almost here, my crocuses are blooming my daffodils are starting to come up so that means we are due for a good dumping of snow! Seems to always happen that way! In fact snow is predicted for later today (at least the wind is gone!). I don't like tea either and I'm sure we don't know how to brew it proper anyway! The brain dump sounds about right, how are we to store all that info?

Roxie, glad you finally took our wind! lol
 
Hi girls! Late today, had to get my roots done. Did intervals on the TM. One more day of work! Ronne, the kids have school, just me on break! They will be off at the end of the month and I will be at work! Lisa, you have gotten back in the swing of things! When will DH find out? I think HR departments are the same all over, they have their own time line. Jody, are you going anywhere for break? I will be cleaning. Surprise! Roxie, where are you? Hi to Murphy! You are all coffee drinkers? I have only had like 2 cups in my life! I have 2 diet pepsi's a day for my caffeine, the rest is water. Have. Good evening, Mary
 
Good Evening,

I got the virus on my work computer so I wasn't going to come on here but DH says my computer is ok. I didn't get a workout in tonite was busy doing other things.

Jody-nice to see you back.

Mary-good job with your workout, I use to drink alot of diet pepsi now I drink coffee.

Lisa-good job with your workout. We are expecting snow and rain tomarrow.

Ronne-LM is one of my favorite workouts.
 
Hello

Lisa - or should I call you shapely calves? :D Yeah, sounds like you're back in the swing of things. Book yourself a break - there's nothing like it!!

Roxie - eek viruses! I dread them. At least it was on your work computer!

Mary - how nice, a week off. Are you going to do anything for you? We're on track - I get my hair done tomorrow. There's a lovely streak of dark brown/grey/white up there at the moment!!

Today was PS CST. I'm calling it a day on the rotation. I'm off to the hairdresser's tomorrow so there's no way I'm spending all that money then sweating through KPC!! Apart from that it's a pretty quiet weekend - if the weather's good I'm going to paint the fence. (I know, I'm sorry, I make you all green with envy!! :p)
 
Good Morning,

Tonite for me is EB's Burn & Firm Pilates and then probabaly the TM. Its gray and cloudy here today chance of rain and snow.

Ronne-that was the problem it was on my work computer not something you want the bosses to find out.
 
Took a rest day today. I started a sore throat yesterday and by last night it got worse (sent DH out for ice cream :) )

Mary, that the best spring break (minus the cleaning part)! We are SUPPOSE to hear today about DH offer. Yea, we've heard that before. I just can't believe it takes this long even with a contact inside the company!

Ronne, I'm just happy the wind has stopped here! We should be getting a streak of some nice weather soon!

Roxie, Is your work computer ok now? How nerve wracking!

Waves to Murphy and Jody as I contemplate getting some ice cream!
 
hmm, ice cream.
Is anyone else still finding afterburn a killer? I keep popping it in thinking it will be different this time and no, no it's not. I still like it though and look forward to when I can get up from it without resting first. :)
 
Good Afternoon,

Well I had a talk with the boss lady today about what we are going to do and she said right now they are trying to figure out exactly what we need around here to help out and I said as long as it was a male I didn't really care, I also didn't ask for more money but I know I should have.

Lisa-yes the computer is now fine co-worker got it cleaned up. Sorry to hear about the sore throat I think I am coming down with a sinus infection under my left eye is starting to hurt. Enjoy the ice cream.
 
Hi, leery about using forum, but I keep reading. I did 4.5 mile run last nite, longer route since I back tracked rather than do loop, kind of a weird guy on bike p assed me went really slow, pulled over, then started behind me again as I headed toward a series of wooded, gated com
mmunities. Scale was down2# this morn, do u think it was the late eve run or the wine and bacon I had for dinner? Haha.
I'll report back on AB this weekend, some of the LI S are becoming a little more manageable. Lisa, feel better soon I hope job offer comes thru, what a pia to wait and wonder. Mary I'm catching up too on break but I bet u clean more than I will. Roxie doesn't sound like you will be looking for new job so that seems good to me! Ronne which rotation are u no longer doing?.
 
Hi girls! I'm really late today! Just finished MM, can't remember the last time I did that! Jody, that guy sounds creepy, hope you were in a busy neighborhood, do you take your phone with you? Be careful. Enjoy your break! I have 9 days off!!! Roxie, good thing about your job, maybe you will be able to approach them about more money when things are more settled? Lisa, don't get sick again! Just don't do it! Murphy, I think they are all a challenge! I keep thinking I will get better with the discs, but I don't! Ronne, enjoy yourself tomorrow, I love getting rid of those grays! Have a good night, I need to get dinner going! Mary
 
Good Evening,

Tonite DH is out helping SIL with the house again so I got caught up on my workouts I did EB's Burn & Firm Pilates and Slo-Robics now I am eating a salad.

Jody-sounds scary like Mary said keep your phone on you and scream real loud if he gets near you.

Mary-enjoy your break. I think I will wait until he is gone before asking for more money.
 
Sore throat is gone! I really rested up...got 9 hrs sleep (with assistance). I did MMA Fusion today. I tried to get DH to be my punching bag but he wouldn't hear of it :) DS22 is over today, he posted the van on craigslist, within an hour we have 6 people coming to look at it. The new car is supposed to be here in 2-3 weeks.

Roxie, you are a w/o machine! Hope your sinus is better. The wind is back today.

Mary, 9 days?!??!? heaven!

Jody, are you still having problems with the site? You be careful out at night ! Good job on the weight loss! I have a few that's creeped on, hoping they come off easy....I'm feeling like some is water, especially in the chest area if you know what I mean :)
