Buff Badgers Wed 11/16

Morning BB's,

Today will be Imax3.

You know that young boy that was shot by his friend, well I didn't know this, but my oldest DD had him in her classes last year. Apparently she had to comfort a friend of hers yesterday. Her friend started crying and my DD when to her and gave her a hug and told her friend that everything was going to be all right. DD's teacher actually called me yesterday at work to tell me that she was a very special young lady. Almost made me cry. :+

Have a great day!

Laurie

Hi Everyone!

Today is Still Steppin and KS LWTLW 1. My neck is starting to act up a little bit and I think I have to ease up on my upper body work. I think certain exercises are taking it's toll. I just don't know exactly which ones yet. I'm beginning to think I need lighter weights with delt flys and keep my hands behind my head when I do core work.

Yesterday I did 2 segments of Mindy's Cardio Toolbox and L&G. Oh my, my butt is feeling it today! What a great workout. I didn't do the whole thing but a half hour of it. I think Fit tv has the whole version of L&G, if not, it was plenty enough for me. I skip the calf work and some of the floor work.

Saw your weather. Not sure I miss WI that much!

Good workouts everyone!

Good morning,

No workout for me today. I had to take my dog to the vet this morning and could have worked out before, but I wasn't motivated. Oh well Tomorrow is another day.

Laurie, how great for you to know that you have raised a compassionate daughter.

This weather is rough. It takes me about 10 minutes to walk from my office to my car, so last night I was soaked by the time I got to my car to drive to class. Got to sit for two hours in class completely wet, then walked to the other end of the parking lot again through the rain. Ugh. And of course yesterday was the day that I decided to wear my incredibly comfortable but backless clogs Needless to say, I was asleep by about 9:15 last night. What a day.

Take care and stay warm,

Ellen

Laurie - Great story about your daughter. You should be proud.

Didn't get to post yesterday because I was took off to spend time with my sister and brother-in-law from Colorado who are visiting. Did Circuit Max yesterday and GS Legs today.

How does everyone like the snow?

Happy Hump Day!

Hi BBs!
This much snow I can handle. Glad it is the middle of the week and even happier that next week is only 3 days. Can't believe it will be Thanksgiving already.

Larie - That was nice of the teacher to call and tell you. I'm sure you already knew you had a very special daughter but always nice to know what a great job you did!

OK, I decided on C&W today. I have worked my body to exhaustion lately. Plus I was so hungry, I couldn't wait to eat! I did take it up a notch during the cardio sections, but the weight work was perfect today.

I think I need to start Christmas shopping today. The crowd here is nuts. I think it's best for me to get it done before Thanksgiving and before I start working whenever that will be.

Hi all.

Laurie, isn't that just the saddest thing. There have been a lot of stories in the paper about him. That was nice of your dd.

Cynthia, yes you wouldn't envy our weather today. It's only 25 out right now and it's 1:30pm! And super windy again. What is with this wind lately? I have Cardio Toolbox but haven't warmed up to it much yet. My mom and I are going shopping this weekend and I hope to get all of it done! We are taking advantage of no Packer game on Sunday to shop.

Ellen, I'm so glad you mentioned the vet! I forgot I have to run over and get puppy food!! Poor Mace wouldnt' have any breakfast otherwise!Wow you must have froze this morning walking from your car.

Sue-it's still snowing here sort of--kind of flurries I guess, but it's sticking! That's great that you worked out yesterday despite having company.

Marie-time sure flies, doesnt't it? I can't believe it's almost the end of another year. I agree on the snow. If it werent' for my family, I would not be living in this climate. I'd be out in AZ with Cynthia!

I'm going to try a new workout today. It's called Play Ball and is led by Kimberly Spreen. It uses the medicine ball and stability ball. I also hope to get some yoga in tonight. I borrowed Yoga Sculpt with Karen Voight from a friend. I got bored with Pilates but I know my back needs this type of exercise to stay strong.

Of course I have to watch Lost tonight, so I may not get both of them in, but I'll try! I think I'll be ready for step next week as long as I wear an aircast on my ankle.

Jill - My sis and BIL aren't staying at my house - they were just there for the afternoon and dinner - that's how I was able to workout in the morning. My sis is such a sweetheart though she'd probably get up and lift weights or something to keep me company.
