Hi there. Thea I hope you don't mind me starting the thread. We're sitting here waiting for the (late) school bus so I have some time.

My new Cathes are set to arrive today. I will do a longer premix of something---weights is what I need today! I have a client meeting at 10:30 and then it's cruising from then on!

What's everyone else up to today?

Morning BB's,

Again a busy day for me at work. I had meetings until 10. Really hate sitting still for that long.

Today will be a 5 mile run. And then I am off for three days at the faire. After the faire my life will finally get back to normal. What is a weekend? Don't know if I know what they are at this point.

Jill, yesterday my youngest DD's bus was 15 min. late.

Have a great day!

Hi everybody,

I'll be glad when 5 p.m. rolls around. This hasn't been the best week ever. Work wasn't good yesterday, and I ended up with a pounding headache. I went to bed early last night and slept in this morning. I can work out after work since I don't have class on Friday.

Today I'll start week three of the August rotation. It's the next calisthenics-type of workout; it should be a challenge.

Take care; it's another busy day here at UW.

Hi gals!

Thanks for getting the thread started! Please, first one on in the mornings, get 'er goin'!

Ankle is still sore, rested it this am. I had such trouble falling asleep last night. I went to a movie last night and got home late. I had a discussion before getting home about the hurricane and the situation in New Orleans that got me all worked up. I also think I am now getting a cold, can you believe it?!

Ellen, way to go doing the August rotation. How are you liking it? Also, did you say you are taking classes at UW? What are you studying? I am a UW alum!

I hope you all have a great day--yay, 3-day weekend!

Hi BBs,
Yesterday was Turbo Jam 20 min and Turbo Jam Abs. This morning was Ripped (Jeri Love). Loved all of these! I am feeling this morning's workout in my triceps already. My new Cathe's arrived yesterday and almost did that strength one but was in the mood for something I knew would be harder. Not sure how that one is yet and will need to modify since the dog played with my stability ball.

I can't wait for the 3 day weekend to begin! Although I just returned from over a week off and this week was only 4 days. However, my time off was not in the least bit relaxing with the tub and tile work being done so getting back to work was a joy! A party at FIL's tomorrow and then nothing planned other than tackling our "need to do" list for the house. I am not thrilled with my SILs so never excited about family get togethers but wine usually helps get me through. They are both smokers and still friends with DH's ex so I do not trust them and can't feel close. Fortunately we don't see them much although I wish I had SILs that were fun. Even better if they were vidiots. No way mine could be converted. :(

Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend! I am loving this weather!! :)
 
Hi Thea,

I've enjoyed the August rotation a lot, actually. I think the variety has made it easier to stick to. And I've liked not having to think about what I'm doing each day; it's already prescribed for me!

I'm taking classes at MATC, and I work as an editor/writer at UW. I'm hoping to take a couple of classes at UW this spring; it has been difficult to get my residency established. I'm officially a Wisconsin resident now, though, as of Aug. 1. I'm taking prereqs to study physical therapy.

Take care,
Ellen
 
Did Lowmax this morning with extra squats, lunges and leg presses after 3 of the intervals. After the 3rd interval I looked at the clock and realized I was running late (darn!) so finished the rest of the workout as is. I hate it when my workouts feel rushed. If only I was independently wealthy and didn't have to worry about silly things like getting to work on time (sigh).

Received the 2 new Cathe workouts yesterday but haven't previewed them yet. They'll be nice on days when I need something a little easier.

Tomorrow we're going to my dad's tree farm near Richland Center which I haven't seen in about 18 years for a family party. My dad planted 10 acres of walnut trees 34 years ago as an investment and a little extra something to leave to us kids. (Don't know if you guys remember but I'm from a family of 12 kids.) Shortly before my dad died 2 years ago, 2 of my sisters and their husbands bought the tree farm from him and have been making improvements ever since. They're anxious to show off what they've accomplished so we're we're all going over there for a picnic. They built a 2 story garage, added a porta-potty, and bought a golf cart for driving around when they want to have fun. The porta-potty is a major thing. I used to try to hold it as long as I could so I didn't have to squat in the woods. ha ha I'm not much of an outdoor girl as you can probably tell! LOL

Have a great weekend! Enjoy this beautiful weather.

Hi again. I am still waiting as patiently as possible for Mr. UPS man to arrive with my new dvds.....

Also, what is UP with the NO announcement announcement? It's kind of mean to say a big announcement is coming, and it's been a week and still nothing. Hmmm. Weird......

She did announce due to some loose ends that the Big Announcement was delayed. I think it is a psychological test to see how people react under this situation. I bet the frequency of log-ins per day has increased with everyone checking to see if the announcement is there. And then the speculation on what it could be.

I should do this to my employees to test them! I think they would beat me up!!! :)
 
Guys, yeah I'm waiting for the big announcement, too........

Wondering if now that Labor Day weekend is here if that means we'll have to wait until Tuesday now. Hope not.

Marie - You are funny. If my boss did that to us I guarantee we'd get NO WORK done until we found out what it was because we'd be emailing, instant messaging or visiting each other cubies to speculate on what the announcement would be.
