Hey, Murphy, I'm here, just a lot of running around! Yesterday I did Jari, S&L, hadn't done it in forever, today will be some sort of cardio, haven't decided what yet! Lisa, how is it being back in the work force? Well, just wanted to say hello to all, the bus just pulled up, the kids will soon be in the house! Talk to ya later, Mary

What a week!
Hi there! I can't believe I've missed posting for so many days, but my computers were infected with a virus (Trojan horse) and I spent days scanning, disinfecting, finding it was still there (or came back), and repeating the whole thing over... for all of the computers in the house! What a pain in the neck. I fired my anti-virus software and hired something else that seems to be working better.
And then there was the rain, and the flooding... the kids were out of school yesterday because of it, so I had them both home all day.
Anyhow, I've been keeping up with my workouts -- I did STS disc 38 (squat rack legs). I like the squat rack series... sure, it's heavy, but the breaks are long and there's no scrambling to change your weights or see what exercise is coming next. It's a nice change of pace from plyo legs (which I will be doing -- and hating -- on Saturday!).
Mary, I haven't done Jari in ages... (or any other weightlifting, for that matter). I have most of her videos, but lent several out to a friend because I knew I'd be STSing for most of the year.
Well, I've got to roll DS out of bed (I hope he has school today!)... DD is already gone. And I'm off and running.... bye, all!

Hi everyone
Been busy with a houseful of people so just not had time to check in. The last guests left yesterday and then it was getting the house back to normal. Managed to fit in a Kickbox Surge premix yesterday and did KCM's new Muscle Definition, the second workout today. Over and done in 40 mins!
Kathryn - isn't it awful when computers go down? it's such a nightmare. Hope you've managed to get everything sorted out.
Squat rack legs sounds good. I'm taking a break from really working my legs at the moment. Just doing yoga and light weights.
Andrea - good to see you!
Mary - I pull out that one from time to time - can't do it too often as I get bored!
Murph - what rotation are you doing?
OK - better go! Bye for now.

Hi All,
Am slacking off today for no good reason. I am taking the kids to get there flu shots today. Wish me luck!
Kathryn - do you have the power tower for the squat rack discs?
Ronne - I was doing Cathe's November 2007 (?) rotation. I am trying to hold on but have been very distracted lately and not focusing or pushing myself like I should. I keep thinking I need to find something new to do. If I was not step-challenged I would have more options.

Hey everyone. My gosh, is it already Wed? I've been running from sun up to sun down. This work thing gets in the way of a lot of other things! I've been keeping with the exercise and dog walking. Maddy is doing much better with her leg now. Must be the homeopathic stuff I have her on. She's adverse to pills now so we now have to stuff them down her throat (geez, doesn't she know that's what makes her feel better?). At 10 pills a day, well, you get the picture. Let's see. Sunday I did STS M1 Legs, Mon-no equip Abs, Tues-STS M1 Back/Tri, Wed - Cardio fusion all step PM. The job is going fine....I'm remembering more than I thought I would. It looks like for now it may be a bit slow. The good thing about being a contractor is that my IBM mgr said that if it's slow, to just not work if that is an optioin for me (and that saves them money). Also, until the 1st of the year I can work some from home. so now that I feel I have all the stuff set up I need, I think maybe I won't be working a full 40 (thank goodness) and I'll do some from home. What can they do? fire me? It's really weird, don't know why they hired me....my best guess is that they are getting ready to lay off more programmers and want to have some in place to take up the work.
Kathryn/Ronne, I hate computer problems, I jsut want mine to work! I had to set up my own brand new computer for work, ugh that's runner up to yucky computer things to do in my book.
Mary, I just did JAri RTTC not too long ago...it had been ages and it was a nice change, i'm like others here, can't do toooooo much of her though.
Andrea, don't be a stranger! I couldn't move after my STS legs M1, funny thing is that the prev week wasn't too bad, not sure why I was so much more sore the second week.
Murphy, what do you do besides step? Any bike or walking/running? I've been slacking in my cardio since the beginning of summer, my bad!
Gotta run....for once dinner won't be rushed! Aw heck, I'll fess up, we're getting chinese take out (I deserve a break!)

I did KM low impact PM minus the leg conditioning drills and added in SJP abs. A much calmer day as I decided to just stay home and work as needed and enjoy the slow time while I can!
Murphy, it's been freezing here and drizzling for 3 days! finally the sun is poking out today even though still only going to get to 50.

Hi everyone! Busy week this week, just running around, and running the kids around! Today I did LIS, step only, yesterday was PH. I just ordered Kelly Coffey Mayer's new ones, they looked so tempting and I caved! Has anyone tried them? Lisa, how is it being back at work? Was everyone glad to see you? You are so good to Madison. Murphy, it is really humid here too! I am ready for a little bit cooler weather! But then I will be complaining about the snow! Ronne, I bet it is good to have your house back! Kathryn, hope everything is working ok now! Andrea, we missed you! Glad to see you back. Well, it is shower time, need to go wash some hair! Bye! Mary

Quick fly by....I did STS C/S/B in M1. Still cool here and rainy...I don't think I'm ready for winter!
Mary, the 1st 3 days of work was BRUTAL, fitting in everything and going into work. These last couple have been fine since I'm working at home and only about 4 hrs....I know that won't last so I'm enjoying while I can.
HAve a great weekend everyone!
