^^^C&T^manic^monday^^^

Kate, that's my favorite kind of day! The girls are having a dance party in their pjs right now!

Anne, I was pretty much a sloth from Saturday afternoon on! I haven't been doing a lot of ab work even with Cathe's rotation-maybe 1-2 times/week. I stayed up late to watch Northanger Abbey on PBS:) I love Jane Austen!

Colleen, nice swag! I need to do AS again-with 2 risers this time:)

Robin, I wish I could ship them out! They are sooo good! I read The Turquoise by Anya Seton over the weekend and now I'm reading a book called Jane by Dee Wells-don't know where I got it from! I also have Forever Amber by Kathleen Winsor. The books are old but new to me:)

angie, hope you had a yummy dinner!

robin, i netflixed a kcm & really liked it! shes a good instructor!
lol @ a bigger plate!
im surely addicted to a daily cs right now!

klaudia, your girls behaving? isabel got invited to a friends so i'll have a nive drama-free afernoon!:p

gotta figure out sthing fun to do w/ g....
 
kate, have her make cards for her teachers - finn did that yday for teacher appreciation week.

klaudia, who will get the kids ready tomorrow when you are working? is it something you enjoy? soundsfun!

anne, i just adored all those pushups, sick i know. i really liked the wo. good plan for dbl wave tonight. have fun at tap.

colleen, glad the ankle is on the mend. i love the short breaks in the sts. i usually shorten her breaks anyways.

robin, i usually have more energy at the beginning of the week too. how is work shaping up this week?

angie, how did your lecture end up? 1200 cals???? maybe that is why i am not losing - i eat wayyyyy more than that, and usually i am still hungry:confused::confused:

yoga class was full, so i just did some abs and legs. did yoga on tv during quiet time, and that felt good. too much choc today, though it is 85% extra dark:rolleyes: i broke down and ordere mark blanchard progressive power yoga. i am excited at how flexible i am getting, and even doing backbends i have not done since i was 6 and in gymnastics:cool:
 
Ugh! I am so into self district mode... I made it throuh the day so well until the kids started stressing me out and Ryan worked late and I ate way too much leftover lasagna and now just feel gross! Nina I think 1200 is prob too low cuz I was hungry all day. Just need to find a balance. But you prob burn like 2000 cals a day with your wos so you need more.

Sorry my post is choppy. I am in bed with the iPhone.

Kl have fun tomorrow! Sounds yummy for sure.

Kate glad Is had something fun to do. What about g?

Robin that is good pc advice!

My brain is fried from studying... Off to sleep! See y'all tomorrow!
 
Slaap lekker, Angie! [That's Dutch for sleep well.]

Nina, backbends? That's great. Do you push up from the floor or bend over backwards? I can't bend over backwards anymore, but I can push up from the floor.

Kate, what did you and G end up doing?

Robin, lol about the bigger plate. What is celebrity fit club?

Colleen, did you get your errands done?

It's been quite here at work today, a lot of places are closed for President's Day. It's nice! I could get used to this...

anne
 
step class was great! someone is s'posed to call me for an appt for the machines. i told them i need to set up a lb and core circuit for 2-3x/week. so ill still go to step 2x and hopefully groove will be okay 1x. depending on how groove goes and how long the machine circuit takes me I can also get on the bike for intervals...

I really need to call for the driving lessons TODAY! NOW! i am soooooo putting it off right now.

nighty night angie!

robin, ive never watched celeb fit club but now i just might have to!

nina, we own our place and will be in a 1 br suite in a long-term stay hotel in CA. DH is not being stationed in CA, he still "belongs" to his base here. its just a long trip, so we maintain our home living situation and he receives certain additional allowances to cover him in CA. I am going along technically at our own expense but we are very frugal. enjoy your new yoga coming!

kate, i am liking KCM a lot, too! they don't have the newest ones on netflix but i just traded for cardio blast and bootcamp.

klaudia, what is fat tuesday? maybe i dont want to know...

anne, nope the move is not permanent, dh is training for 6 months and we decided to go along instead of separating again.

i thought dh was working tonight but hes not. i have no idea what im doing for dinner...
 
Hi Everyone!

Errandmax was a challenge. The parking lots are limited with spaces because there was no where to put all the snow. Then there is the challenge of getting out because the snow is piled up at all the intersections. It was okay - just needed some extra patience. Came home and did clean max (our cleaning lady never made it last week and won't be here until next week). Getting ready to setup for tomorrow's STS workout and then I am going to try to finish my book.

Anne, I think the ab work is light too so I have been adding in extra. Glad you are enjoying the quiet day at work.
Wendy, that's nice that you can go with DH during his assignment. Go sign up for driving lessons.
Angie, I am trying to find the right calorie balance too. STS has made me hungrier but I am trying to keep it clean.
Robin, wow you have an aggressive goal for lent. LOL - a bigger plate.
Nina, great job on the flexibility. I tried gymnastics but I did not do well at it.
Kate, that's great you got a drama free afternoon. Did you find something fun for g?

b: oatmeal w/ apples, almonds
l: bbq chicken salad
s: cheese on wasa crackers
d: chili
 
Okay, I can tell you guys this, right? I'm getting nervous about the cruise. I don't know why. I guess because I don't feel like I know what I'm doing and that is a very unfamiliar feeling for me. I don't know what tickets I have to which concerts, I don't know how to get from my hotel to the port, I don't know what I'm going to do with myself Saturday night in Fort Lauderdale. Actually, getting to port won't be a problem, I'll be with my friends by then. We're all sharing a room, but they don't get in until midnight or something.

Anyway, I'm freaking out a little. Isn't that bad? I'm excited, too, don't get me wrong, but I hope this was a good decision.

Okay, all my anxiety is out there now! Maybe it'll stop bothering me.

STS C/S/T done-after too many interruptions! And no push ups! Woo hoo! Darrin's taking the girls to dance tonight!!

Nina, my parents are coming over tonight:) I love working on Paczki Day-everyone comes in-old customers, family, etc. We have a party!

Anne, do you have any good Jane Austen sequel recs? I was looking on Amazon but got overwhelmed!

Wendy, nice work! Fat Tuesday is the day before Ash Wednesday when fasting traditionally starts in the Christian faith. Many Christian cultures, in order to use up the things they'd have to give up during Lent, would make desserts more rich-lots of eggs, milk, sugar, etc. That's the definition of Mardi Gras too:) It's a day of indulgence and revelry:)
 
Anne, just think about what fun you'll have! It's an adventure and you deserve it! And nerves are ok, too:)
 
Nervousness be gone! I just did HiiT Pyramid with no extra breaks! I know y'all can do that no problem, but it's a real breakthrough for me. Maybe I should stop being afraid of 40/20.

And I don't know what my problem is (well, I do know what my problem is, but I'll work on that with a therapist)--I used to travel all over the country by myself on business. I think I can get myself to Ft. Lauderdale and onto a cruise ship without any problems. Geez. I'm a smart, capable adult with reading comprehension (don't you think there will be signage?). I'm such a baby sometimes.

Klaudia, thanks! Have fun at the bakery tomorrow. I can't think of a good Jane Austen sequel off the top of my head, but go here:

and scroll down to the link for NoveList. It's a database to find fiction. You can do all kinds of searches and stuff.

Have a good night, everyone! I'm off to tap soon.

anne
 
gotta be quick - waiting for my sisters to get here. cardio & pure barre I think!
Did GS biceps this afternoon.
Gina and I vegged on my bed watching Ant Bully:D We just about never watch movies so that was a real treat!

nina, in honor of your post DDs and I were having flexibilty contests in the great rm tonight! they won!:p:D:D:D

angie, mmmm...lasagna - sorry the PC got the best of you!

Anne, Glad you talked yourself out of your nervousness! You can do it! And you will have a fabulous time!

Klaudia, I hope tmrw goes well for you! I would NOT do good surrounded by all that!

Colleen, More snow?!?! Crazy!

Wendy, You need an appt fr the machines?!?!?
 
The thread title matches up w/my day exactly! I have no idea where the day is gone!!! I know I said I would catch up today, but I will catch up tomorrow! I will be back after my meeting tomorrow morning.

Clintonya

P.S. Anne I would be nervous too :), but like I told my youngest dd this weekend, nervousness can be good. Next you will be excited and you will have a great time!!!
