RE: I'm back!

Morning BB's,

Today I changed the rotation to L&G instead of doing PLB. I hate having to change weights every few minutes. We went to a cookout last night and had a great time. Meet a bunch of the people who sell their wares. These people are residence of TX, but travel to different faires.

Karen, Way to go on saving $$ on the hair. It is amazing to me how much it costs. I did CC#5 on the treadmill yesterday. Have a great time this weekend, and I bet the boys do great. :) Yep after this weekend only two to go. I'm in the countdown stage at this point.

Sue, You and your DD getting your nails done sounds like a fun mother/daughter thing to do. :) Mine usually want to do the shopping thing. :D Do you have Janis Saffel's Strike Zone. That one has some great kicking drills in it.

Susan, Sounds like you are going to have a busy weekend. We are suppose to have rain. I'm not looking forward to that, but I am going to enjoy the cooler weather. Your workout looks good.

Have a great weekend everyone,

Laurie
 
RE: I'm back!

Susan - Happy Friday to you, too! Sorry you didn't get your workout in yesterday but it sounds like you'll make up for it today! I'm enjoying the cooler weather, too.

Karen - I wish I had a friend who did hair. My niece does but she lives in Denver. Kind of an expensive haircut to go visit her all the time.;-) Orientation went fine. I was surprised there weren't more parents there though. A lot of new changes for DD this year - riding the bus, 2 locker combinations to remember, having a schedule, starting school an hour earlier, new kids from 4 other schools. I think I'm more nervous for her than she is! I thought of the Kickmax drills because Cathe says they'll improve the form of your kicks.

Laurie - Yes, I have Janis' Kickbox Strike Zone. That might be better than Kickmax since KM also leaves me so sore afterwards. Thanks for the suggestion. To save time doing PLB, I use my 5 lb leg weights wrapped around the end of the bar and 2 1/2 lb platemates to quickly change the weights. Much less frustrating than trying to change the plates during the workout.:)

Instead of my walk last night I did a 2 mile walk/jog. Does it still count as my rest day?;-) This morning I did a 3 mile walk/jog and hope to do abs tonight. Only working a half day because our company is closing at noon for a golf outing. I don't golf so I'm visiting my mom and sister from Denver who's home. It's Corn Fest weekend in Sun Prairie so it'll be crazy. They don't start serving corn until tomorrow but I'll probably take the kids to the midway for a few rides and mini donuts if they're good - the kids that is - the donuts are always good:).

Have a great weekend everyone!

Yes, ladies, I had a nice time at the beach. I have never been to Elkhart Lake before. It's a nice small town. Pretty too. The kids all got along really well. They didn't want to say "goodbye"!
