Morning BB's,

Just getting us started today. I don't know what is on my agenda for exercise will BBL for that info. I have to take Cami to get groomed. And then I have my whole day to do nothing.

So I will BBL to chat some more,

Laurie
 
Good Morning,

Laurie, thanks for getting us started. How does Cami look now?

Today I am doing BM2 if I can make it through. I hurt my knee running this past weekend so I don't know how much I'll be able to do. It hurts just walking.

Hope you all have a great day.
 
Good morning ladies! Glad I found you this morning and remember to check in.

I had a great weekend. On Saturday I bought and put together 4 cabinets for my master closet. The thing is just huge, but was still kind of unorganized since moving in, so I'm glad that's finally done.

Then yesterday morning I went to my first ever live yoga class. At my gym, 7:30am. Wasn't thrilled about the early time lol, but I'm always up before then anyway, so what the heck. I loved it. I am really starting to like yoga now and it was fun to be with other people at the gym. I did pretty good for a novice, if I do say so myself. I'll definitely be a regular.

I wanted to get to my garage to go through my 4-5 plastic bins of too-small clothes. I think some stuff should be starting to fit me again, and I am anxious to find some workout clothes down there. But I didn't have time and probably won't until this weekend.

It's so warm outside, I love it! It's 55, great!!

Enjoy your day off Laurie. I'll be working away here!

Karen I hope your knee injury isn't too serious. ?(

Jill
 
Laurie - Have fun doing nothing. :7 Does it ever happen to you that those days you plan on doing nothing, you end up getting a lot done? And those days you have a lot to do, it feels like you get nothing done? Maybe it's just me. :+

Karen - Hope the knee is okay. Mine starts to hurt if I do too much high impact. BBC cardio bothers my knee a lot. You can always do upper body and core until it feels better.

Jill - You're one of those people who can't sit still aren't you? ;-) Sounds like a productive weekend. So you're into yoga now, huh? Was it a power yoga class you went to? You're right - 7:30 is too early. Ugh! During the week is one thing but I like to SLEEP on the weekend. :)

I had Dojo Friday night. Easy workout again. Did B&G abs when I got home. Raked leaves on Saturday for 1 1/2 hours and called that my workout for the day. Yesterday was Circuit Max. This morning was BBC Arms & Abs weights only + 1 mile walk/jog.

Busy week again. DD has her annual Show of Talents of ADHD personalities tonight. She's dressing as Agatha Christie. Hmmm. . . who knew Agatha Christie was ADHD? I found a blazer, skirt and lace blouse at Goodwill for $13. She also has a white wig to complete the old lady look.

Sue
 
Jill, oh no another one lost to yoga. I just can't seem to get into doing it. I know it would be good for me but I'd rather stretch and not work that hard at someting. Silly me. Nice job getting the cabinets put together. Have fun going through your small stuff that you again fit into.

Sue, you snuck in while I was posting. Is your yard clean of leaves now? Sounds like a good time for DD. Nice day for a walk. When do you do your next level of testing for Dojo? Is it each monthe or does it go for a few?

Susan, hope you had a nice time at the wedding.
 
Hi everyone!!

Yes, I had a great time at the wedding! It was fun to see old friends again. However, I was pooped yesterday!

Today is the elliptical for 45mn (sports training program).

Jill, I have never gotten into yoga but I love pilates. I think I like pilates more cuz it moves faster or something.

My front yard has to be raked this week, some day.... My DH tells me to wait til all the leaves are down but they are driving me crazy!! It's a big ol' maple. Pretty but right now, it's about 1/2 of the way done dropping them....

Have a great night and see you tomorrow! Susan
 
Susan! I forgot about your friend's wedding. I bet it was a blast! Well worth being pooped over. Yeah, I thought about waiting for all the leaves to fall but it bugged me, too.;-)

Sue
 
RE: Agatha Christie

She looks so good!! I hope she had a good time!

Today is P.U.B. for me.

The kids don't have school on Friday so I think I'll save the raking until then!

Have a great day and enjoy your workouts!

Susan
 
RE: Agatha Christie

Good Morning,

Today I am doing a leg workout and LIS.

Tonight we have to make jerky from last years deer for the guys to take hunting this weekend.

Sue, neat picture of DD. She is very pretty.

Susan, glad you had a great time at the wedding and got to see some old friends. Good idea waiting util Fri to rake. The more hands the better.

Laurie, you must have gotten busy yesterday on your day off. Hope you got a lot done.

Jill, have a great workout, is it yoga again?

Have a wonderful day.
 
RE: Agatha Christie

Morning BB's,

You guessed it I did find lots of projects to get done yesterday. No sitting around for this girl. We are getting new furniture for our family room tomorrow morning. So I decided to rearrange the current furniture to see if what I had in my head would work. So of course that starts me cleaning the woodwork, and the windows. And since you are moving furniture, the carpet needs to be cleaned also. :D So my barometer on how good it looked was when the girls came home and said "I Love It". Then you wonder why you didn't arrange the furniture like this in the first place. :D :D We are getting a loveseat, couch, 2 endtables and a coffee table. Eveything we own in the family room is mismatched. Guess what! Now I have to paint the family room. The funny thing is that when you start cleaning woodwork and walls you realize that the room needs some more work. :+

Karen, So sorry to hear about your knee. Take care of it. I take it you have a dehidrator for making jerky. My sister has one and dehidrates for jerky also.

Jill, I love yoga also. Have been wanting to go to a live class, just to make sure that my position in the poses are correct.

Sue, Love the pics of your DD. I didn't know that Christie was ADHD either. I love reading her books. My favs of course are with Hercule Periot. :D He was one of her best characters.

Susan, Hope those leaves land on the ground for you by Friday. Not fun having to rake twice. Are your kids off all of next week also? Or is it just Friday? Our DD's are of W-F of next week. I know my nieces and nephew up north have the whole week off for hunting.

Have a great day!

Laurie
 
RE: Agatha Christie

I'm in training all day so just a quickie update.

Did BM2 Timesaver Cardio this morning.

Laurie - Funny how your girls are your barometer for furniture changes. You must be one of those creative people. DH is like that and so is a gal I work with. She'll rearrange the data center in a way that looks great and is very functional but nothing I ever would have thought of.

Karen - Have fun making jerky! I don't come from a hunting family but many of the guys who work here go hunting. In fact, it's a known thing not to schedule training or important seasons during deer hunting. :)

Susan - I hope the weather cooperates for you on Friday and it's not rainy, cold or windy (or all 3!) for raking leaves.

Hi, Jill!

Sue
 
RE: Agatha Christie

Morning BB's,

Today is my last day on the LGI8 rotation. My workout will be BBC Chest & Abs / Kathy Smith Peak Fat Burning

Well I have been bullied into doing another round of P90X. :D :D At least that is what I am claiming the other Xers I chat to are doing to me. :7 :7 Can't let them get more X's behind their name than me. :7 I will be starting the next round on the 26th of Nov.

Our new furniture has arrived already this morning. Now I want to be home to arrange it the way I want too. :D

Susan, Maybe those leaves will all blow away before you need to rake them up! That happens to us all the time. :D

Sue, If I hadn't been interested in accounting when I was younger, my second love would have been decorating. We did our living room about 3 years ago, and it turned out really great. Now I'm ready for the challenge of the family room. I still want to redo the kitchen also. :D I will be getting new paint on the family room walls. When DH called and said the furniture was in place, he said so you want to go with a sage green right? :D :D :D Can't have the new furniture blending into the wall color as it does now.

Karen, Did you get all that meat made into jerky?

Jill, Did you get some more sorting done?

Have a great day!

Laurie
 
RE: Agatha Christie

Afternoon,

Today I did Imax 3 and B&G stability ball abs.

Laurie, sounds like you have a knack for decorating. That would have been a fun business to go into if you are good at it. Congrats on sticking with LGI8. Another X round. Wow!! Go get um. Glad you have company. That wouldn't even help me. I am not buying anymore workouts. I'd rather save up for an elliptical. I just need somewhere to put it. We didn't finish the jerkey. It takes forever and it smells really bad for the 6 hours it is drying. Everyone likes it though. The boys will finish making it tonight while I am driving my 2 hours to take my DD15 to the ortho.

Hi to everyone. Have a great day.
 
RE: Agatha Christie

Laurie - I know you'll be able to finish another P90X round no problem. Are you going to do the Doubles rotation again or Classic? Is this #3 for you? We need to repaint our upstairs bathroom and DH was just going to go pick out some blue paint and start painting. x( Ummm, hello? We need to get paint chips and try to match the tile first. We have a shade of blue right now that doesn't match which is part of the reason we need to repaint.

Karen - Good job putting the boys to work finishing the jerky. ;-) So does that mean you won't be preordering Cathe's STS series? Quite frankly, I don't have enough info to decide what I'm going to do. An elliptical would be fun.

Did BBC Legs this morning but skipped the cardio section. There was enough cardio in the weight section for me this morning anyway. Will try to do something else tonight.

Have a great day!

Sue
 
RE: Agatha Christie

Hey ladies!

Laurie, you are one tough lady! Good job doing P90X again!

Karen, I am glad my hubby doesn't really like jerky or that would be one more thing for me to do! LOL

I don't know what I'll do today. I know it will be cardio. I decided to just go change and get down stairs. I'll make up my mind when I get there! I am leaning towards KPC.

My leaves are blowing away into my neighbors yard! I feel bad! ;-)

Take care- Susan
 
RE: Agatha Christie

Okay what the heck? I posted a big long post this morning and it's not here!!! And I wasn't getting any email notification to tell me you guys had posted. I thought it was odd that nobody had posted since this morning.

Darn it. I'm mad I lost the post!!

Mickey the missing cat has come home. He was at our old house again! I can't believe that! We haven't lived there in six months and he had to cross Highway 20!! I'm glad the new people were so nice and called me. The guy said he was in the basement and looked out the patio doors and there was Mickey, staring in the window. Probably wondering whose stuff was in our basement! LOL

More tomorrow. I'm beat and heading to watch tv in bed. Night!
 
RE: Agatha Christie

Good Morning,

Today I am doing muscle max.

Sue, I probably won't order the new Cathe. I guess a little more info would be good. I just have so many right now that I can't fit in. Do you see any results from all your BBC? How's Dojo going. Any testing again yet?

Laurie, you can come decorate my house and paint the rooms if you want. I don't have that talent at all. Then again our living room has all long windows and no wall without them. In the Drill Max workout when she says everyone has a wall, I have to lean on the window. All the other rooms have furniature against them.

Susan, did you end up doing KPC. That's a fun workout. You seem to have lots of energy. Are all your leaves gone.

Jill, sorry you lost your long post. That happened to me a couple of times. Glad your kitty is home. It's funny it keeps going back to the old place. How are you liking your live yoga classes?

Hope everyone has a great day.
 
RE: Agatha Christie

Morning Karen. Well, I've only had one live yoga class. They are only on Sunday mornings at 7:30. This will be my second one. I did a fittv one last night, Namaste Yoga, and like that, too. So I'm going to try to transfer some of those to dvds and edit out the commercials. I like that they are only 20 minutes for a quick bit of relaxation. My back is a little sore again today though; hopefully that will be like any other doms and it's just a matter of getting used to it.

LOL @ leaning on the window. :)

Have a good day everyone!
Jill
