40's week of 6/7

[fitover40]

Hi girls! I'm getting us started for the week although I don't think I'll be around much this week.....ZIP (fingers crossed that all work schedules all have off for the 4 of us).

Saturday I did , Sunday-kettlebell way....took it easier with a lighter bell (18 lbs), monday -mma fusion...I'm really starting to like this one, even if I can't do the second turtle rolls very well (or as fast as cathe). Humidity is SUPER high here, sweated up a storm. We even have the A/C on (normally with the low humidity here we can get away with an evaporative cooler --- this has a big pad that gets wetted down and as the air blows through it cools it --- much cheaper than A/c...however with high humidity it isn't effective.

If we go, we will drive 8 hrs tomorrow to Mesa Verde national park and do some hiking (3 mile trail to see the petroglyphs), and then the next day all day zipping, then a late 8 hr drive back. I think that all should qualify as some exercise, right?

Hi all,

Did Tracie Long's new kick-box-ish dvd. It was okay. I think I need to do all of her new dvd's over again to make a decision on how I feel about them. I took yesteray off and this morning I was going to do some jumprope work but I had to clean the house - it is on the market and DH left me some "stuff" to clean-up before I could to anything. Why does it take so long to clean the kitchen and the bedroom?

Hi ladies

Back from my hols. Had a lovely time, very relaxing. Lots of nice walks, beautiful countryside and beaches and some great wildlife. Didn't drink any whisky but did buy some to bring back!

So back into the exercise again. I've created my own 4DS rotation. Did HIS yesterday and LIS today. I also got my credit card out and just ordered a load of Cathe stuff, the discounts were too good to resist! I've ordered CTX, PP/SS and PS.

Lisa - hope you have an adrenalin-fuelled couple of days. That definitely counts as exercise.

Murphy - is selling a house as painful and horrible a process over there as it is here?! I never want to do it again. Hope it all goes smoothly for you . Let us know what you think of these new Tracie Long DVDs. I looked at the clips and wasn't that bothered really.

Bye for now!

Hi girls! Haven't been around, today was the last day of school, had to make the rounds! The twins had a clap-out from 6th grade, the youngest's teacher is pregnant with twins, they had a baby shower for her. Have to get to my w/o! Ronne, so glad to see you back! Did you have good weather? Not much of a whisky drinker myself, but I do like my beer! Murphy, are you getting a lot of traffic thru your house? I hope I don't have to move again until the nursing home calls! Lisa, hope that you had fun zipping! Kathryn, how are you? Have to go to therapy tomorrow, his name is Lester, my DS calls him Lester, the adult molester! My DS, is a baad boy! Have a good day! Mary

Hello

Mary - what are your plans for the summer? You don't work in the holidays do you? Yes, we did have good weather thanks - I even managed to burn my feet and legs on the beach (idiot!).

Today was 4DS KB. I find doing the whole thing really tough, love that kickbox section though!

Is Kathryn still on holiday?

Good morning! Just did upper body from MM, nice and quick! Need to start sorting thru closets and drawers... I am stalling! Ronne, how fun to get new dvd's! You are going to busy! I am pondering CTX! How long will it take you to get them? Murphy, are you liking the Tracie dvd's any better now? Lisa, did you zip off the mountain? Kathryn, are you busy with school stuff? Hope everyone has a great day! Mary

Hi Mary

Looks like it's just the two of us! If you're going to get CTX, you should get it now while there's $20 off! (not that I'm trying to enable ). I don't know how long it will take to get the DVDs, could be just 2 weeks could be longer.
Hope you got those drawers sorted out! Is it a clothes clearout?
Today was 4DS BC, the time just flew by (and the sweat! ). Tomorrow I'm going to take it easier and do some yoga. I need to stretch everything out!

Bye!

Maybe no one likes us? Well, I am glad to see you! Today I did time on the bike, legs only with MM, the floor work from PLB. Had to use light weights and not go as deep. It was nice to be able to work my legs a little! I enjoy BC! It is always fun and goes fast. Well, the kids are getting restless! Either the zoo or library today. Hi to all, have a good day! Mary

Hi Mary

Well, we're the official stink brigade this week! How's the hip doing? You're working on lower body again now so I presume it's healing well. Hope you had a nice day with the kids.

Today I did yoga, was working towards full splits! My legs and hips feel great now. Hope you have a good weekend. Weather is supposed to get better here. We've got a small back garden party to go to tomorrow and friends for lunch on Sunday.

See you!
