Morning BB's,

Ahhhh! Today is Thursday. Only one more day until the weekend. Then next week is a three day work week. :D Again that smiley doesn't have a big enough smile on it!

My work out will be PS BB, Abs, and a 30 min Run. Imax3 wore me out yesterday. I have managed to do all the Imax's in the past two months. #3 has to be the toughest for me. }(

Beautiful weather today! Winter is finally here! Cynthia, we had about an inch of snow on the ground this morning and a temp of 22 deg. We will all be at your house when we get a flight out of Wisconsin. :)

Have a great day!

Laurie
 
Hi BBs!

Didn't get a chance to post yesterday. I did LIS and SS yesterday, got up and did a 60 min treadmill workout this morning. Now that I have gotten over my left ankle sprain, I have developed RIGHT foot pain out of the blue. It is on the top/arch area and I am not sure what it is. It comes and goes--didn't hurt walking on the treadmill today but now it does. I don't think wearing dress shoes at work and walking around all day will helpx( . I just keep hoping if I rest it the next 2-3 days it will go away.

Brrrrr, chilly 10 degrees this morning here. You're right though Laurie, it is pretty out!

Have a good day everyone!

Hi Buff Badgers -

I hope you don't mind me jumping in on your thread again. I'm just sort of missing Wisconsin today. I see you have snow! My kids asked this morning if we could go north for Christmas because they want to go sledding -- sorry, but it isn't in the budget this year!

We just got a cold front down here in Texas. It is getting down in the 40's at night, but still 60's in the day time. My son had baseball practice last night - now that is something that you don't see in Wisconsin in November!

Stay warm gals!

Good morning,

Today I strayed from the November rotation and did Boot Camp cardio and legs, then HSC. I needed a good, long workout. Of course, I'm tired now :) But it was worth it.

Yikes, it's cold! My ears and hands really hurt by the time I got to my office today, even with gloves and a scarf. The lakes haven't frozen yet, although I'm sure it won't be long before I'll see ice fishermen out there on my way to work.

Laurie, Imax 3 is definitely the hardest for me. Shorter recovery + some longer intervals = tough workout!

Thea, take care of your ankles/feet! I hope you figure out what's going on with your right foot and that it's nothing serious.

Cynthia and Michelle, you may have a few visitors from the north showing up on your doorsteps! :) I have always lived in the Midwest, but every year I dislike the cold a little more. Oh well. It wouldn't be the holidays without it, right?

Take care,

Ellen
 
Hi Everyone!

Laurie, you crack me up. Winter sure hit fast there. It has been so nice here, I need that though, as I do miss Wisconsin. We are coming back to visit family right after Christmas. Tickets were really cheap. The kids have winter break until Jan. 9th. I am looking forward to it. We are also planning on going up to Flagstaff too for some Winter enjoyment. Funny though, the kids could care less if they see snow. They are enjoying riding their bikes and playing outside.

No workout today. It's clean max and Christmas shopping max. I have to get a start! Maybe I'll get into the holiday spirit. It's not happening for me right now, especially when it feels like Spring. It's strange seeing everything in bloom right now. Flowers blooming everwhere.

I sure feel like IMax2. Tomorrow that's the one!

Good workouts everyone!
Cynthia
 
Hi, everyone!

Slept in a bit and did Total Body Stretching. Lots of stretches for the low back so it felt great. I think I'm coming down with something cuz I'm real tired today and the nose is starting to run a bit.

The kids were so excited to wear their boots and snowpants this morning. It reminds me I have 2 tires to replace before the serious snow starts.

Took a "real age" quiz this morning and it tells me my I'm only 32.4 years old. I'm really 41.4 so it's a full 9 years difference! My co-workers were a bit jealous because they were either slightly less or in 1 case 4 years older! (He has a history of heart problems and back surgury and is on all sorts of medication plus he has a horrible diet. Not overweight though.) Here's the link in case you're interested in taking it:

HP and Goblet of Fire in 1 more day!

Hi Sue - I did it and was 7.1 yrs younger. Nice to get that with a birthday just around the corner.

Cynthia - Did you ever get your house sold?

Hi Everyone else!
 
Hi Badgers!

Super quick flyby just to say hi. :) Super swamped with stupid work again!

Michelle--you miss snow..... Do you also miss 24 degrees like it is now at 2pm? LOL

Hey, all - don't knock the weather. Trust me, as odd as it sounds, if you left, it's one of the things you would likely miss. I do. I hate walking around here (in NY) and listening to everyone whine about the temperature and how "cold" it is when it's 30 degrees. They actuall report the "wind chill" here - as, in "it's going to be frigid today - the high will be 32 and the wind chills will make it feel like it 26" (did I mention these temperatures are ABOVE zero!)
AMATEURS!! After all, what fun are flannel pajamas and sheets and thick socks and sweaters and a good, spiked hot beverage and crackling fire if it's not cold and snowy outside?!?!
Enjoy it!! It's what makes winter winter!
(oh, they also carry umbrellas here when it snows. strange)
