Hi girls! Today did another new one, can't remember the name or who it was, anyway it was a circuit. I think it will be going to half price books, they didn't know how to count, that bugs me! Lisa, I love that work out! Did DH leave again? What is everyone else up to? The kids and I are hitting the beach, high 80's today! Hope everyone has a good day! Mary

Good Evening,
DH and I went for a 2 mile walk this morning in our neighborhood and then we went out of town shopping, we created a little sitting area in our front yard butt no one in town had a bench so we went on a bench hunt and ended up spending way to much money.
Lisa-I am committed to the gym for a year but the personal training is only 3 months. Sounds like you guys had a nice walk.
Mary-sounds like you had a good day too.

Hi all
Could you all please send some of that good weather over here? It is freezing! I'm still wearing jumpers and boots!! We went out for a quick walk yesterday and I had my big coat on!! It's horrible. I want some sunshine! As predicted I didn't get any workouts in this weekend, managed a premix of KCM Powersculpt today (just 24 mins) as I'm still pushed for time, workwise.
Mary - the beach?! Really, in May? I'm so jealous! I've got serious vit D deficiency!
Lisa - your walking style sounds like mine - I like to look around. It sounds like you live in such a beautiful part of the world.
Roxie - wow, you're really getting the workouts in, what with the walks, the bike, the gym, the PT, the odd DVD!! Impressive!

Hot beach weather here too. Dd did beach clean up community service yesterday at a pretty state park, they have kayak rentals and paddle boarding in inlet/lagoon, I'm gonna see if I can find someone who wants to go with me.
I did my x-factor today. Have to choose a fun cathe cardio for tomorrow.
Ronne, where Mary lives, she may get the beach in May, but her July 4th picnic may end up needing a coat and probably galoshes! ; ) Ohio weather can be weird!
Roxie, I hate that about shopping. You probably found stuff you didn't even know you needed til you saw it.
Murphy, did you notice that both the new w/o have core focus segment in them? One is an add on and the other is core focus w/ upper body, wonder how that is going to look...
Lisa, I feel cheated if I don't get a sweat. Maybe because I'm a fire sign? All my bfs and dhs have worked for power company or fire related. I must be attracted to Energy.
Take care~

Good Morning,
Today is a gorgeous day 46 degrees now but suppose to hit 80. They are painting the kids house this morning should all be done by tonite, new move in date is the end of June. I am going to try and do the workout my PT wrote for me so we will see how that goes and then we want to go see the house.
Lisa-I have a 3 month commitment and we are suppose to achieve a certain goal by June 10th and I really don't see that happening.
Jody-I didn't know I needed and expensive faucet on my kitchen sink that would have saved me 142.00.
Ronne-I do what I can. DH isn't always in the mood for all this extra work so I don't complain when he wants to do something.

Hi girls! Did STS TB this morning. It's growing on me! Ronne, beach was beautiful! And Jody is right! We could have snow any time! Funny story, I get set up, huge beach, this guy in a speedo, (who had no business in one, by the way) sit down 2 feet away from me, proceeds to lube himself up with baby oil, grunting the whole time and talking to Siri on his iPhone! If I wasn't so lazy, I would have packed everything up and moved! Roxie, how exciting about the house! When is the baby coming? Jody, paddle boarding sounds fun! Maybe you could take that boy you went out with? Murphy, where are you? Lisa, is DH embracing the cardio? Are the newlyweds back yet? Have errands to run, meeting at schoold. The twins are going to DC next week for field trip, have to get the scoop! Have a good day! Mary

Hi girls! Today I did sleep-max....hahaha. Was sleeping good and am working today in the office. They even gave me some work for a new project, gasp. Guess that means they may be planning on keeping me around for a while.
Mary, the newlyweds got back last night. DH is home this week, I wouldn't go so far as to say he's EMBRACING cardio. that guy at the beach sounds totally gross and disgusting. I must admit, I like my mountains better than any beach. that sounds so fun for the twins, are you chaperoning so you can go?
Roxie, I'll bite. What expensive gadget saves you $ overall? Maybe I need one! lol
Jody, I'm a Leo, that's a fire sign. I get hot and sweat very easily, that's why I hated FL (that and the bugs). Sometimes I'd like a nice walk and not sweat, especially when it's 60 and the sun is setting. Have you ever paddle boarded? I tried it for a bit with my sister in FL, I got up but I had to concentrated REAL hard so I didn't fall. Of course I was tense as could be because I didn't want to fall into the mucky water (I hate lake type water).
Ronne, I do love where I live. Unfortunately lots of people have found that CO is a wonderful place to live. In the last 25 yrs the population explosion has been huge. I love me some 65-70 degree weather, not sure what that translates to celicius...I don't even know how to spell celcius ....haha
Well, I better get to work. Have a great day all!

Hi everyone
Lisa - sleep max is my favourite workout!!
And by the way, it's celsius (just for future reference when you're feeling European!!)
Mary - I'm getting to quite like TB - I'm keen on the idea of a Cathe DVD that doesn't wipe me out!
Roxie - wow, sounds like the house has really come along quickly.
Jody - what is x factor? (apart from a TV programme over here - it's weird I keep thinking you're doing some kind of singing workout!!)
Well, we have a strange yellow thing high up in the sky and the temperature is really pleasant!! Don't know what to make of it!! Got a bit project off my desk today so feeling good. Should have a good month financially. Jody inspired me to get Imax 3 out - did the 6-10 37 min premix. I can really feel that I've lost some cardio ability through being ill, it was really tough!

Good Morning,
I went to the gym last and did a 10min warm up on the elliptical and then I was going to do my workout she made but the area was full needless to say I was really disappointed and felt kind of like a failure in the workout department last night. Friday morning I need to try and get off work for a funeral my cousin and his wife were killed in a major accident in Springfield Missouri, its still under investigation know one is sure what happened.
Ronne-I think that is what they call the sun.

Quick post, did MMA Fusion. Still have DOMS from GS legs 2 days ago so didn't want anythign too challenging and I did my own inept version of the turtle rolls in 2nd drill.
Ronne, I AM feeling European with my Espresso/Cappucinno every morning Glad you got that yellow thing in the sky ... lol
Roxie, I think I was slow yesterday in the brain dept, guess my question was a DUH moment
So, now today I get to redo all the work I did yesterday because they failed to tell me one thing that is different than how we normally do things. I hate stupid rework, especially when I'm working from home and want an easy day!

Well, remember those cold symptoms I thought was an allergy? Well, they were cold symptoms. It hit my Saturday night and all but did me in. Mid-day Sunday was bearable, but by Monday morning, I just could not manage. I took the day off from everything and slept almost the entire day. It was nice. I would really have liked to have stayed home today, but I have to take off the rest of the week b/c one of dd's school's is closed and DH can't (won't) take off. He is off next week and had the nerve to ask me if I wanted to take a day off and spend it with him. "Gee honey, I would love to if I did not have to use up a lot of my vacation time taking off the week before so you don't have to." _(&*&%&^$^%$)
Anyway, I am still a bit under the weather, but I am functioning.
Roxie - sorry to hear about your cousin and his wife.

Good Evening,
I decided to do the circuit my PT came up with but only had time to do it 2 times not 3 and warmed up on the elliptical for 20 mins.

So I woke up this morning feeling good-ish. I thought I would try a workout. I started Circuit Blast (forgetting about all the jumping). A few minutes and DH asks me to make him lunch b/c he is running late and does not have time to do it. Of course I made it but while I am doing that, the 7 year old comes down and is supposed to help me but we all know how that turned out. She then wakes up the 4 year old so she can say by to daddy. DH leaves and I try to return to the work out but now they both want to "work out with me." So, I am not getting anything done today in the form of a work out. I am so annoyed!

Roxie, how did you like the circuit she designed? Sorry about the loss, too.
Murphy, how's the cold coming along? Sorry about your vacation days, too! I've rarely worked full time w/ allotted vaca days, (usually full time PRN or two jobs or SAHM (which has no vaca time at all or is it all vaca time?) Anyway, I hate the idea of not having flexibility for time off.
Ronne my w/o are Weider x Factor. Body weight 30 to 40 min workouts. 12 exercises in a row then repeat. 8 weeks long I think, w/ new dvd every week and each dvd done 3 times per week.
Mary, did you get your yard work in? Yes, I hope to go do something fun w/ new boy. : ) If I don't find some time to spend with him, he's going to get discouraged though.
Lisa, I don't plan on falling into muck water when I finally paddle board, either!
Yesterday i did a 30 min run, some push ups and dips, then remembered I'm rejoining a dance class and so I did a choreography class for an hour, whoop! Today should be WXF again.

Hi all
Roxie - sorry for your loss.
Jody - sounds like a good system. I like being told what to do when (well, with workouts anyway!!) Yeah, you need to schedule some 'boy' time as well
Murphy - yikes! Circuit Blast would probably have finished you off anyway, if you're coming down with a cold (trying to look on the bright side!)
Mary - no point showering after CSS if you're doing gardening. How did it go? Did you get all done? I planted a couple of new shrubs to cover the fence at the back, they seem to be doing OK.
Lisa - that is frustrating. I had that recently on a project but I just say to myself that I'm getting paid to do it, so that's fine!
Did some Pilates today - went to the doctor again so not much time. Worked my core quite well. More sunshine - hurray! I'll have to go up in the loft and get my summer clothes down. I've only got one short-sleeved top which I wore yesterday and today. Looks like this weather might stick around.
