40's - week of 4/22/12

Hey, Lisa, I dl the app and have 50 shades plus the second 2 hunger games. I guess I'll be toting my laptop up to bed with tea tonight. BTW, I haven't run in weeks since I've been teaching dance on Thurs nights so I haven't had a chance to give CC a try, but he pops up in random play on my phone all the time now, lol.

I really really don't feel like working out- 5 hours of sleep last night plus long one today but I'm gonna give it a go and see how it works. I might be fudging the pushups. I'll let ya know.

Oh and I got a 96 on my speech. She grades really easy and didn't seem to notice the babbling as much as I felt. One more speech to write this weekend- 5 min persuasive. If I want, I can rework the Cathe I just did to persuading people to exercise or something like that.
 
Did TF EZ 55 min, mowed the lawn, dusted the master bedroom. Ready to shower (too bad I STILL can't use my new shower) and call it a night.

Jody, reading on the computer is better than not being able to read :)
Good luck with your attempt to w/o....mine was a bit half hearted. Congrats on the 96.

I'm feeling like it might be a benadryl night :) Too much time outside + mowing = allergies.
 
Hello

You lot rattle like a bottle of pills - you're all on drugs!! :D Workout done and dusted for today - CTX step and intervals (cardio only) 35 mins in and out. Still nose to the grindstone but at least I'm not getting too stressed!

Lisa - all that housework counts as a workout as well, you know. Sounds like you need the hike to blow off steam - well, at least you got a discount. Where did you get your shower glass from, Versailles??!! :p Flippin' heck, for that money I'd want someone to come and clean it for me as well!

Mary - wow, that is tall! DD (11) is one of the smallest in her class - she's really slim as well - everyone can pick her up!!

Roxie - let us know what you think of the gym when you get there. Sounds like a successful shopping trip.

OK, break over!
 
I got in HR UB minus the abs this morning....off to hike!

Ronne, it's a HUGE piece of glass. 72" x 72"....but yea, with the price they could afford giving us a discount for our inconvenience of the whole situation. It may have helped because of the relationship I built with the head gay guy :) Don't work too hard, I won't be !!!! I'm sooooo happy to get out in nature, my allergies aren't too happy though :confused:
 
Hi girls! Today did GS C&T. Still shaking! Lisa, have fun on your hike! You will be able to use your shower tomorrow! Ronne, she's petite, your DD! My DD is tall and willowy. I think her brother will be starting his growth spurt soon. He has been getting quite moody lately, which he himself can't explain! I think he will be tall, his feet are like boats! Roxie, you aren't going to leave us for the gym are you? Jody, great job on the speech! What class are you taking this summer? Murphy, what are you up to? Are you going to get new work out outfits for the road trip? I am going to start cleaning the kitchen cupboards today, I'm not looking forward to that! Have a good day, Mary
 
Good Morning,

Its been a little busy. Boss lady and I went for a walk this morning, it was chilly and windy and her hip was bothering her so not a good walk. I have my first gym session tonite but if my stomach doesn't calm down may have to cancel can't get to far away from the bathroom and if I get done early enough I want to do 4DS LIS Step. I still need to do last nights workout just wasn't in the mood and a couple of stretches.

Mary-no I will still be here. I want to do my regular workouts too.

Lisa-glad things worked out with the shower door and thanks for telling me about the book.

Jody-4DS Bootcamp is a good one and congrats on the speech.

Ronne-good job with your workout.
 
Today is a powerwalk day - "lazy, I don't want to do anything but I really should" day. Oh, my DD's have found it fun to poke my "soft" booty. Yes, thank you for reminding me that I went from J.Lo to Jello.

Mary - funny you should ask about buying new outfits for the road trip. I was at the mall last week looking at some things. I talked myself out of buying stuff b/c I have so much as it is. I am trying to conserve, watch my spending. But, the closer the road trip gets... :)

Lisa - kudos to DH for getting the credit.

Jody - I may do 4DS bc. I like it but have not done it in some time.

Murphy
 
I did power circuits from bm2 for legs, intense, fun, but but I shouldn't count it as a full leg workout. J I'm waiting for kids at orthodontist office, I feel a bout of ortho-donto-narcolepsy coming on, the nip you take in car while waiting for kid to have adjustment done.
Lisa have fin in hike and thanks for booKs and tips, loving it.
Ronne, like dorie from nemo says, just keep swimming....
Mary I bet you are living the freedom of time off while kids still in school..
Roxie you will be twice as fit and twice as tired if you double dip at gym and cathe.
Murphy lols at jello JLO.
 
Jody-the main reason I am going to the gym is for the personal training sessions to make sure I am doing dead lifts correctly they hurt my back and I feel chest flys in my shoulders more then my chest so I want to make sure I am doing that correctly. I can't afford a membership there its 40.00 a month plus a 50.00 enrollment fee.
 
Good Evening,

Well I went to the gym but it was the other branch of the same gym I was suppose to go to but they got me all signed up and I have a PT appointment Friday at 5:15 am wasn't feeling well so I came home to workout and I did KCM's Circuit Burn, 4DS LIS, and Basic Stretch now I really feel horrible stomach is not happy.
 
Good morning all! Had a great hike yesterday, 8 miles, 1500 ft elevation gain. We did hit some snow cover and going uphill I tended to break through and ended up in snow up to my thighs at times (in shorts too!). Then to top off the night, we ended up getting carded, we thought the waitress was joking at first but she was dead serious. My BFF says she looked at me more when she asked for ID...then I swear when she looked at it she looked a bit shocked. Maybe that HRT is my fountain of youth? :)

Mary, Glass should be coming today, keep your fingers crossed! I'm tired of being a guest in my own house using the guest bath :) So DD is tall and willowy like you?

Murphy, jello-J-Lo gave me a laugh.

Roxie, Hope the gym personal trainer works out.

Ronne, come up for air once in a while!

Jody, I hope you and Mary are slow readers, I don't want you passing me up on 50 shades :) I'm not slow reader per se, just not enough time to read!

Hi all

Just a quickie from me today. Did a lovely yoga session, loads of twists which worked out a few kinks. Puzzling over a tricky bit of work at the moment, trying to make sense of scribbled instructions.

DH is leaving us tonight - he's off to Scotland for a few days birdwatching so it's just me and DD till Monday night. Weather prospects aren't looking too great for him ... loads of rain forecast.

Lisa - Wow, that must have made you feel brilliant!!!

Roxie - that's a lot of workouts for someone feeling rough!

Jody - don't forget you're only on 30 mins this week so that's pretty intensive for 30 mins.

Murphy - looks like some lower body work might be needed? :p Only kidding!
 
Hi girls! Today did MMA KB. Lisa, yeah for a bathroom! You two should take a long shower tonite! No, I am tall, most definitely not willowy! I am a good size girl! Glad you enjoyed your hike! I don't ever get carded! Lucky girl! Ronne, did the yoga clear your mind? Sometimes help you think a bit clearer. Roxie, sounds like you tortured yourself last night! Hope you are feeling better. Murphy, maybe some new Jammie's for the yoga they do on the first night before bed? I bet you are psyched! Hi to Jody! Had a migraine yesterday, no cupboards! DH is off with me today, so maybe tomorrow? Have a good day! Mary
 
Good Morning,

Boss lady and I went for a walk this morning and it was beautiful 60 degrees no wind and she put some speed into. Tonite will be Body Pump at the gym, I am suppose to do a full body so this is it. I might also do something else before class because it doesn't start until 6:30.

Lisa-to funny about the carding and falling in snow in shorts.

Ronne-sounds like a good workout and sometimes I just have to workout no matter how I feel.
 
Roxie, ask and you shall receive! :) It's there now. I don't normally put all the books I have up there but most likely I either have them or can get them, so I just tell people to let me know what they want and I'm happy to move it up in the dropbox.

I was like, WTH is she talking about? scrolled back and was like, ah! RT! got it. Is your migraine gone? Hope so!

Lisa, congrats on your door, youthful appearance and fun hike! I'm about half way through 50 shades. Light bulb moment of the day = his name is Grey and he has many aspects of his personality...the name of the book is 50 shades... I am enjoying it, its like Harlequin Romance meets Harold Robbins on steroids. My fave!!

Ronne, your dh is brainiac nature guy? HOT!

Roxie, I hope you have a good experience w/ PT. The few times I've taken advantage of free session, it was really a showcase of their talents in an effort to get you to buy a package. Hopefully they will answer your questions. Are you feeling better?

Murphy, it was funny you posted that comment on the same month that Cathe posted a rock bottom rotation.

No workout for me today, I did scrounge up some work for summer session A, doing the same thing but for different professors. Both have very different styles from my previous professors and both come with high credentials, so hopefully I will be able to keep up and still be a good help to the students since I will be learning new things and not just tutoring what I already learned. It's pretty cool, actually. Oh, and I ate plants today, even tho its a busy day, go me.
 
Jody-luckily they are putting me with a female trainer but I have no plans on doing sessions unless they are less then 50.00 and hour and I am not really expecting much. My stomach is starting to act up again I don't think it likes all these fruits and veggies I am eating.
