BFL for Sat Apr 19th 2008

Good morning Belinda! Hope you are sleeping now! Goodness, you were up late!

I was making the coffee this morning...walked back in the kitchen a few minutes later and noticed just water coming out! Turned off the maker...I put water in, put the filter in, but forgot the main ingredient! COFFEE!!! Never did that before! Oohh, just heard it finishing up! bbl!
 
Good Morning,

Belinda: I couldn't sleep last night either. Is it the warmer weather? Nice job last night on your SB workout! Are you ready for UB today? Which are you doing?

Hey Melissa: How are those butt DOMS this morning?:)

Hi Stephanie: I have done that same thing myself about forgetting the coffee.:) It's ok...it is early.

Well...yesterday I put together my weight bench. I really need to get a barbell now that fits. My Firm barbell doesn't even come close to making it to both sides of the supports! My DS's is just not going to work...half the weights are on the inside...dangerous for sure.

I didn't get in my workout yesterday. We had a major disaster with the water pipes under the sink. My sinks overflowed into the dish washer and then out onto the floor. All the pipes had to be replaced! Luckily DH is handy at this sort of stuff! I will be spending today cleaning up the mess down cellar so I will catch up with you later tonight.

Have a great workout and day! Heidi
 
Hey girls

I know i said i wouldn't be checking in alot but i figured if i can check in in the morning and then after my workout i wouldn't be on the computer half as much!

I figured out that i was spending like 3-4hrs a day on the computer and it just about broke my heart,thats time that im spending away from my kids,my house chores(don't realy care about those though}()
anyway,I just couldn't leave you guys ,but i won't be able to check in as much

Todays workout is cardio,im thinking a 30min run interval and then a 45min powerwalk! but first i must do abbsx(

everybody have a fantastic weekend:) I'll try and bbl...
 
Good morning!


Belinda - Feels right having you start us off, but sorry you couldn’t sleep.

Stephanie – I’ve had days like that. Yesterday the dog greet DS when he got home from school. Apparently we forgot to latch her cage and close the gate to “her room”. Thank goodness she didn’t get into anything.

Heidi – Oh no! Leaking pipes are no fun whatsoever. Hope there isn’t too much damage.

Amelia – Glad you could join us for a bit. You’re so good getting the abs in first.


I’m off to do 4DS biceps/triceps. BBL to catch up on yesterday’s chatter.
 
Good morning everyone!

Belinda - are you napping? Sorry to hear that you couldn't sleep.

Stephanie - LOL on your attempt at making coffee! DH just left to run an errand and he took it upon himself to ask me if I wanted a coffee on his way back home. Ummmm...yeah! I didn't even have to hint around. Now that's progress! Now I'm patiently waiting for that cup of heaven (the coffee, not DH ;-) )

Heidi - sounds like you've got quite a mess on your hands. No fun! You are lucky that DH is handy and you don't have to depend on a plumber. Glad you got your weight bench together! Butt DOMS are kicking in. It's a little tender back there...}(

Amelia - it's amazing how much time goes by when you are on the computer and you don't even realize it! Good for you for trying to reel that in a little. I'm sure your kids will appreciate the extra time with their mommy!

Hi Sherry and all that follow!

We are putting new windows in DD's room today. I use the term "We" very loosely. DH does all the work, I just "supervise"!! It looks like it's going to be another beautiful day here today.

BBL
 
Hi ladies. Can't talk. Kids all over the place. One DS just got home from a sleepover and needs to get to practice in 30 minutes. The other DS had a friend stay here and we're dropping him off on the way. I'm taking today as a rest day, and tomorrow will be my 8 mile run (however, if I find a pocket of time later this afternoon, I'll run it later.....I've simply got to fit it in wherever/whenever I can).

Again, sorry to hit and run. I probably won't be online at all today, and tomorrow is the baptism/luncheon.

We were up really late last night playing cards, too!

ALL GOOD!

STAY STRONG ALL WEEKEND LONG!

Good Morning,

I think today I will a circuit workout, either BM2, LIC, or Drill Max. I haven't done any of those for a while and I need a good kick in the rear.

My DH and I went out to dinner with some neighbors after our DD's tennis match. One of the guys sarcastically made a comment about Cath-ayy, as he calls her(I think they are all jealous), and then the RT topic came up. I said I probably wasn't going to be able to make it this year. My DH looked shocked and said "I don't care if you go, I just didn't want to hear about it the day after we got back from a weeks vacation". Yippee!!! There are still the financial issues but he said we would deal with it. Now I just hope I can get in.

Heidi - Sorry to hear about your leaky pipes. Was it from all the construction or are they just old?

Amelia - Take care of your kids. Time flies and you never get it back. Are you going to the GTG at Lorie's in May? I hope to make it.

Belinda - I may have missed something. Are you back in the states for good or are you just here to sell your house?

Hi Stephanie, Melissa, Gayle and everyone else.

BBL,
 
Morning!
I did the duathlon dry run this morning. I ran 2.5 miles - biked 16 miles - ran 3.25 miles. I did it in 2:04:25 (which included coming home to get my bike and then coming back home to drop it off after the ride). Oh, I also filled up my water bottle real quick from the fridge. ;) Not too bad, should be able to do next week under 2 hours. :)

Be back later for personals, I'm starving and MUST have coffee!!!!:eek:

Kathy
 
Hi girls,

My workout for today will be UB on the Bowflex!

Stephanie** how is your kitchen going along? Sorry about the coffee this morning, I do that too!

Heidi** sorry about your restless night! My nose is stuffed up from the dry heat! I do miss my Select Comfort bed in Germany! Sorry about your leaking pipes!

Sherry** enjoy your workout this morning!

Melissa** great job with your workout last night! I think it will take a few more days until my body is catching up with the time change! Have fun putting your new windows in today!

Gayle** glad you had fun playing cards last night! Enjoy your day and weekend!

Carolyn** did you go on the last RT? I don’t think I will go this year!

Amelia** enjoy your workout today!

Kathy** ^^^^5 on your workouts this morning! WOW!

Have a great workout and weekend!
Belinda
 
Just checking back in.

Carolyn - you must be psyched that DH gave you the thumbs up for the RT!! I haven't quite decided yet what I'm going to do but I know I'll regret it if I don't try to get a spot.

Kathy - way to go on your dualathon!! Did I spell that right?!

Just got through doing LIC cardio & UB circuit premix. Kicked my butt! I was really surprised at what a good burn I got from the bicep work and I only used 10 lb dumbells. It was alot of fun!!!

Glad that's out of the way. DD has a bday party to go to from 3-9 today. It's supposed to be a sleep over party, but she doesn't do well at sleepovers. After I drop her off I am going for a pedicure. First of the season so I think I'll have to give the girl an extra tip!!! Then DH and I are going to dinner. Just the two of us! I'm so excited. I can't remember the last time we went out alone. I already picked the place so I know exactly what to get and I won't be tempted to stray. Now hopefully he won't want to split a dessert..:eek:
 
Hey guys! Sounds like an awesome start to our weekend!

Kathy-GREAT JOB! Awesome!!!

I just have a minute because now it's time to shower and get to practice #2 of the day! Then we're going to dinner with my entire family!!!!!

I ended up getting in my long run! My best friend's DH (the one I've been walking with) took their DS (5) on their bikes. Here's my stats:
8.04 miles
1:14:47
avg 9:18 min mile
931 calories

It was HOT HOT HOT! The sun beat on us the whole time and by mile 7 I was tired!!! But it's done, now just the race next weekend.

Sorry AGAIN to hit and run!

Gayle
 
Hey girls just popping in to report my workout...its done yeah!

Caroline-I hope to see you on the GTG at Lorie's, she is such a sweetie and has tried to get me to come to alot of the ATL gtg'ers...im just SO darn shy,LOL! I i promised her i would come:)

Melissa-Good luck installing those windows today or shall i say good luck to your DH installing them;-) I also 'supervise'

Gayle-Great workout, high fives to ya!

Hey to everybody!:)

Were(DH and I) are going out for drinks tonight with a group of friends so i hope i don't get sick,everytime i drink i get sick?? Anyhoot,bb in the morning:)
 
Stopping back by. Did 4DS biceps/triceps earlier to shaking. Love that feeling! Back from both kids’ soccer games. DS’s team lost – need to light a fire under them. DD’s won and she scored 2 of the goals. Now for a walk with the dog, and then dinner – need to grill something outside. It’s so nice!


Melissa – Great that your DH is “trained” for the coffee. Enjoy that pedicure!

Gayle – Great job on the run today!

Carolyn – Yeah, you get to go on the RT. What a great guy!

Kathy – Awesome dry run! You’ll do great at the real race!

Belinda – How do you like the Bowflex compared to BB and DB’s?

Amelia – Glad you got your workout in and enjoy your evening out. Hopefully you won’t get too sick.


Apparently my turn on the computer is done. BB tomorrow.
 
Hi girls,

No workout for me today, I am taking a rest day!I am burned out! I will do my UB workout tomorrow!

Sherry** I don't feel any DOMS with the Bowflex! Maybe because I have been doing it wrong last week and part of this week! I found a manual on line which I downloaded! Hope this will help! I lift more with the Bowflex than the BB or DB! I don't get it! I do like free weights better!

I will have a girls night with my DD tonight! We are staying home!

Have a great night everyone!
