Good Morning Melissa!

We posted at the sametime.

I am not sure about the beef question. But you better cook it tonight to be on the safe side.

What are you planning for tonight's workout?

Weekend plans?

This afternoon I am taking youngest DS out to get a cell phone of his own. This was his request for his birthday present. His birthday is on Sunday and he will be 13 years old! Last teenybopper in the house! I hope he has a good teenage attitude like the rest. These are the hardest years for them in their growning and trying to find themselves. Wish us all luck in the years to come! ;-)

I hope your day isn't hectic at work like it was the other day. Have a good one! Although...at least you weren't sleeping on your keyboard.:+

Hey!!
Workout done. I decided on MM. I plan to start the April rotation on Monday. The only workout I don't have is Leaner Legs, and from the rav about it here I must get it!!
I know the 2 lbs is just the water I was retaining from TOM and eating crap...but I"ll take it. I don't feel quite and bloated..thats for sure.

Kathy, thanks for the recipe..I will be making that soon!

Melissa, I too would go ahead and cook the beef. Im very cautious with stuff like that.

Everyone have a great day! Im off to pack for the weekend and run a few errands.

EVeryone SMILE!
 
Hey girls

Kathy-I LOVE fried rice,i think i will make this next week. It looks so good! Thanks for sharing it! I will print it now:)

Hello,

Still trying to get in my workout!

Susan great job on MM! Leaner Legs is on CTX DVD (if you didn't already know this :))

Amelia: I know what you mean about the shakes! I was shaking from my arms to my legs on Power Hour! It has to be the speed/rep variations that made the big difference. I didn't use that heavy of a weight because it was new to me.
Awesome workout!


Ok...on to my CTX Upper workout! BBL Heidi
 
Hi Again,

I successfully finished 4DS Bootcamp. I feel great after doing it as I gave it my all. The only thing i didn't finish was the last (8 of them) drop push ups. I did do all the rest though.

Gayle - I saw your post on OD about the original Boot camp abs.
I DID IT, TWICE. I really hope to be feeling some DOMS tomorrow.

My dryer just stopped as well, Off to fold then shower.

BBL, Carolyn
 
WOW! See that? A girl goes to work for 3 hours and you gals chat right along!

Kathy-that recipe looks YUMMY! Thanks for sharing! I’m going to try it out soon! Enjoy your ‘down weekend’ from your intense training!

Michelle-good thing you didn’t hurt yourself! (and I probably would have been laughing too! LOL) Thanks for the input on the tax return! I thought about using it for so many different things; splitting it up like that is a good idea too! As for Ozzy, I’m not sure about him this time around. I LOVED him during his first trip on Survivor, but something about him is nagging on me this time! On the self-tanner, just say you’re “basting yourself” instead of self-tanning! BBQ sauce, get it? Har Har….to use your words!

Heidi-what do you drive? I have a Mazda 626, 4-door ‘sedan’…your standard typical family car and yesterday it KILLED me to plunk down $40 for a full tank of gas! OUTRAGEOUS!

Melissa-on the ground beef….why not make the meatloaf muffins ASAP and refrigerate them till you get back. They’ll be better cooked, I get worried if defrosted beef sits in the fridge for too long.

Amelia-trembling hands while typing after an UB workout is a GOOD sign you worked it hard! Enjoy it! LOL

Carolyn-I’m tellin’ ya…..that ab section x2 really hit me hard. I especially think it was the segment with the ball where you sit up and kick one leg up, then alternate, etc. I concentrated really hard on working it!!! Enjoy the DOMS too!

Gayle
 
Hi…back again!
Gayle – Oh my gosh, I’d be dying to cash that tax rebate check, lol! We got ours really fast too….both federal and state within about 2.5 weeks after we filed. I paid a couple of bills off and put the rest in savings. Hey, don’t forget about our George doubleya rebate coming in May! We only have one child that qualifies so our rebate should be $1500 (not too shabby!) I read your grocery budgeting in the OD thread with awe, you are super at budgeting! I could use some of that…. You all inspired me to go back and add up all my food spending for the last couple of months (I use my debit card for EVERYTHING) and I’m embarrassed by how much we spend. It really is horrible! So my goal for this month is to rein it in and plan ahead!

Sherry – Great job on realizing that stress causes bad food choices for you. I’m sorry to hear that work is still stressful, I hope it gets better soon. Oh, and take care of that toe!

Stephanie – Ugh, taxes! I filed ours but still have to do our son’s state taxes (I finished his Federal). He files the 1040EZ forms so its quick but I just keep procrastinating. Enjoy the church functions, the skit sounds like fun!

Susan – Wow, I’m glad the tornadoes didn’t make it over to you. Enjoy your trip home!

Carolyn – I AM so looking forward to the med ball segment of the STS ab DVD! I enjoyed all the pics and it looks like it’s going to have some great exercises in it. Yippee, they’re 95% finished with filming so it shouldn’t be too long now (maybe late Spring?)

Amelia – Yeah, lol….the ball went one direction and I went the other (ha,ha!) I was also glad to see Ami go last night. It cracked me up how she had this “smug” look on her face at tribal council until Ozzie started talking….then her eyes started welling up with tears! She tried playing both sides of the fence and got burned!

Michelle – LOL, I’m glad I’m not the only “graceful” person in heels! My kids would’ve been giggling their heads off! But I’m glad it was just a little spill and your ankle is fine.

Heidi – OUCH! Wow, that’s alotta money for gas! It’s costing me about $40-45 to fill up and DH about $27 (he has a small Suzuki car and I drive a Ford Escape). I wish there were more medicine ball cardio workouts. I actually emailed iTrain and requested a drill workout that alternated treadmill with med ball segments. I may keep emailing that request until I get a response…..either yay or nay, lol. Happy b’day to your DS!

Melissa – Enjoy your fun weekend! I agree the meatloaf muffins will probably keep in the fridge until you get back or you maybe freeze some of them? LOL, another “paley” checking in!

Kathy
 
Hey, Kathy! DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THAT Economic Stimulus Check coming later this year! DON'T GET ME STARTED!

TOO LATE...you already did!

I do not qualify for a stimulus check! Go figure. Of all the households out there, whose household could use a stimulus but MINE????? I didn't qualify because my income for the year was less than the minimum of $3,000. I just started back to work PT this September and that kept me below the minimum! UUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH! I'm on fire about it, I really AM! Those that make $3,001, with 8 kids, 4 different fathers, not reporting the under-the-table wages they make, and are playing 'the game' with Public Welfare, WIC, and other low-income organizations will qualify. But not a widow mother of 2 boys 10 & under, getting herself back on her feet!!! NOPE NOT ME!

UUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHx( x( x(

I could go on....but you get the idea of what I think about THAT!

lol

Gayle
 
OMG, Gayle I cannot believe that! I think they really should re-evaluate who they’re trying to help! Wow, that totally bites. And another thing that me and DH think is what are the chances these people that are having a hard time paying their mortgage are going to go out and spend it on “consumer” items? You gotta be kidding me, they’re going to pay their back mortgage or overdue bills instead! Oh, and where in the heck is this money going to come from….our wonderful deficit??? YIKES! :eek:

Yeah, I know (listen to me complain)….who am I kidding, I’ll be heading down to the bank to cash it as soon as it arrives, lol. So sorry again, Gayle….I can’t believe you fell through the “systems” cracks. :(
