Morning all,

I'm feeling pretty good today. I'm going to wo this afternoon but I'm not sure what I'll do. I'm supposed to do 4DS ub so we'll see.

I saw that insanity was released so I was looking at that a bit this morning. Pretty crazy stuff.

I'm going to get a few things done before I have to pick up the girls at noon so I'll be back later - prob after my WO.

So glad it's Friday!!!
 
Morning Angie & all other lovelies...

Angie, I watched the House Tour on your website and it was fascinating! The stuff about the bathrooms is the most interesting to me - blows my mind! Thanks for sharing that! And LOL at the girls asleep on the couch. How did you end up with two blonde headed babies anyway?

*

Well yesterday ended up being pretty busy - I was finally able to walk to my step mom about this party and we agreed I would make a pasta salad and brownies. So I had to run to the store on my lunch, then cook/bake those two things when I got home, in addition to cooking dinner. Then I had to pack and wrap birthday presents. Oh yes, and snuggle my husband who doesn't do well without daily snuggling/attention.

I set my alarm early this morning but either it didn't go off or I turned it off.....??? So I woke up late AGAIN!:confused: I am going to try my damndest to get in 5 miles this morning, but I am short on time once again.
 
angie, hope you have a great day! get in that ub!!!:)

katie, busy busy!!!!:eek: hope your wkend is great!
hope you're having a great run!
i got cs....thank you! tx for the card too:)

-
not sure whats up for us today. need to clean up for the cleaning lady:p. maybe the beach, the fair.....not sure yet:p
wo will be cardio or legs.
 
Ok, 1 egg with 2 egg whites on ww toast for bfast, grilled chicken breast and watermelon for lunch, gotta get some veggies in. Tomorrow I think we'll go to the farmer's market and get some fresh ones!

Katie, good luck getting that run in! Sounds like you're one busy lady! And the blondies... who knows? Annabel has hair like my little sister - a dirty blonde but has big, dark brown eyes like me. Ellie is just pale as a ghost, freckly, toe-head blonde hair, and bright blue eyes. If I hadn't seen her physically come out of me (and at the time thought HUH?!), I would wonder if they swapped her with another baby at the hospital! :cool: My dad (whom I've never met) apparently had blonde hair and blue eyes and Ryan's grandma has blue eyes - those are the only options I know of. But, not knowing a whole side of my genes leaves a lot of questions...

Kate, lol on cleaning for the cleaning lady. Do you have a little Monica Gellar in you? :) (I've been watching a lot of friends lately). UB planned for after I take the kids back to school.

OH, Kath, and introduction - so, obviously, I'm Angie. I'm 29 years old, married for 7.5 years to my hs sweetheart. We have two little girls, Annabel (4.5) and Noelle (3) - we call her Ellie. My husband, Ryan, works for CAT - we're originally from the Chicagoland area, lived in Peoria (central IL) for 4 years, Tucson for 3 years and now we're in northern France for 3 years. It's been a crazy adjustment but my sweet C&T ladies have made it so much better!

OK, off to reading time with girls! BBL!
 
angie, j & i :p just watched your vid.... too cool! the no screen/bug thing would send mike running for the hills! he HATES bugs in the house!

-
gotta go make some baby food! homemade applesauce anyone?:D
 
OK, J's falling asleep on me (applesauce will have t wait)and Angie we posted at the same time.
Did your mom remarry? Cause you have all those sibs! And aren't you the oldest?
I feel the same way about J that you do abt Ellie - she is the complete opposite of me. I'm dark hair, brown eyes. She's a blue-eyed blondie! Mike has darker features too, but she is a clone of him when he was a baby so I'm assumng she'll "darken up":p eventually
and yes, I'm a little anal. But I feel bad if she has to pick up piles of stuff or if there's too much "granola" on the floor in the kitchen/dining.:p And I hate if the girls have left globs of toothpaste in the sink. If I were a cleaning lady that stuff would gross me out!
 
Good morning!!! I did KPC this morning- was going to substitute something else and just woke up ready to do it. It was fun- I can only do that one every now and again or else I get really sick of it. I love the ab work- need to do it more often since I think I'm not as good as the pikes as I used to be. Le sigh, it's always something.

Angie: Glad you are feeling better- love 4DS UB! I have UB on my schedule for tomorrow and have all day to plan what it is. :) I need to watch your video.

Katie: Run fast Katie! I hope you got your 5 miles in- busy weekend planned, too. Wanna ship me some brownies?? :eek:

Kate: I also clean for the cleaning lady- she is amazing and I don't want her to quit b/c we are disgusting slobs. :) Plus I hate for her to spend time straightening up toys and stuff like that. If you do a meso 2 leg wo, it will be both cardio and legs, at least it works out that way for me!

Dinner last night (the recipe I posted) was OK, but I didn't take off the foil and bake it uncovered at all and I should have. With the bread crumbs in there it needed to dry out a bit. Also be sure to spice it up more than it says if you make it. Other than that, pretty good- I like recipes like that in the summer when I have lots of veggies sitting around that need to be used.
 
Didn't run - :eek::confused::D - went back to bed with my husband! He isn't going with me this weekend (working) so I felt like I needed some DH QT:p

Busy busy morning - be back later if I find some time!
 
Katie, I bet you got some cardio in anyway!:p:D:D

patti, sorry the recipe didnt turn out like you planned...bummer.
yeah, m2 get me sweaty too!:D havent done kpc in forever! should pull it out.. and we say we need new wo's!:rolleyes::p:D

-
cheerios & apple down.... wil do good the rest of the day too!
 
Good Morning Everyone! I finally am feeling better. I didn't have to drag myself out of bed this morning. I had to do a quick workout because I had to drop off my car at the dealer. My sunroof is jammed. I was hoping to wait but they said it will be 2 hours. So I will have to come back to pick up my car.

My loaner is now ready, so I will be back later for personals.
 
hi everyone! boy did i miss you guys. internet was broken so now i am on dialup until we move in, gulp, 2.5 wks. urggg. what did i miss? must read posts later.

good morning angie - great meal plans . i think i will add in some eggs.

kate, how long until your vacation?

katie, dh time is well worth bed. whose party are you going to? are you gone all weekend?

hi patti - i know all about cleaning for the cleaning lady:) have a good wo today.

i have been running the past few days and doing all my wo's. nice run outside this am - it was 51 degrees! i love that. also did abs, and will do some strength later. i am a stressball right now, but I WILL NOT STRESS EAT today. i am up 2 lbs on the scale:eek: and i do not know why. so, i will be really buckling down. who is with me? hope to be back later, but i have to work todya and have 2 showings:mad:
 
Hey girls, decided to do LIC upper body circuit instead of 4DS UB... I'll do it later in the week but right now it was screaming dread factor at me - I need something to get me moving. I'll be back when I'm done!
 
Morning

Angie I'm glad you are feeling better...take your vitamins girl.

Katie pasta salad I love..do you make it with mayo or salad dressing? That's funny because African American babies never stay the same color. My son was white, my husband was dark skinned and I'm light skinned. Now my son is darker than me. I guess that is God's sense of humor.

Kath hi I'm Robin and I have two teens (almost 12 and 15). I use to live in NYC but moved closer to my family in NC.

Patti one of my fav kickboxing w/o and you are right it is always something we need to work on. I can see why stars workout for 4 hours a day...I just can't imagine doing the same.

Colleen chat later on

Nina I'm stressed for you, 2.5 weeks to go.
------------
Today planned w/o is cardio...Burn Interval and maybe CC

you all know that my cat is on a diet :rolleyes: well y-day he caught a little bird was was biting him to death. The poor bird was screaming and freaking me out. finally he dropped the bird and we were able to get it out of the house...it came in through the open door.

bbl menu
 
Colleen, WAHOO for feeling better! I have ALWAYS wanted a sun roof but it's never worked out. After the Durango/fam wagon I'm getting something so sporty THAT HAS A SUN ROOF!:D

Nina, Dial up....I feel for ya!:p:(
Hang in there - the day will be over soon! Hug those boys and NO STRESS EATING! You guys have so many showings - are you getting any feedback?

Angie, Sometimes you gotta shirk the rotation. Doesn't matter what WO we do....we just need to DO IT!:D

Robin, Work that cardio! WOW! Which cc?
:eek::eek::eek: at the bird! Our Suzy catches lots of little things.....shudder.....grosss.....ewwwww
 
Happy Friday!

It's going to be a beautiful day here:) Not sure what we're going to do-I have all the kiddos back. Workout will be GS Biceps, chin ups, abs, and a short cardio-hopefully!

Angie, your house tour brought back so many memories for me! Especially the shutters/no screens. I remember "bombing" the bedrooms every night to keep the mosquitos away-didn't work! At one point I had 35 bites! And les toilettes! The were practicing the "If it's yellow..." thing way back then-very hard to get used to! BEtter to do something than nothing-LIC is a good choice.

Katie, you're such a newlywed!;) I vaguely remember DH QT;) Lots to do this weekend! Have fun!

Kate, the family I lived with in France used to clean up for their cleaning lady too! Do Plyo Legs-like Patti said it's a twofer! What kind of fair is going on?

Patti, I need my KPC back-I've been stuck doing 4DS KB and CTX KB for too long! I have KB Surge but am too scared to do it-too used to my Cathe!

Colleen, if it's not something, it's another!

Nina, welcome back! We were worried about you! Great job on getting all your workouts in! Don't worry about the 2#s! Good luck with the showings!

Robin, your cat needs an intervention! Your workout sounds tough!

Hi Anne, Lisa, and Kath!
 
Robin: Cats freak me out with that whole hunting thing- maybe that cat doesn't need a diet, lol!

Nina: Glad you checked in- we were worried! Ugh, 2.5 weeks until the move, huh? I am WITH YOU on clean eats and no stress eating. We will have a good day and a focused weekend.

Angie: Hey, you gotta do what you're in the mood to do. :)

Kate: We always need new DVDs!!! :D

Hi Colleen!
 
Klaudia: Do you have Cardio Kicks? It's a nice one with fun punching drills at the end. These two huge guys are in it and Cathe brings them up beside her for the punching drills and it makes me laugh b/c she is so small next to them. Do that KB Surge, girl! Seriously, it's doable and lots of fun. Tack on 1 or 2 of the combos to something and learn it that way.
 
Patti-I used to have it! It was one of my first Cathe purchases. Another one I loaned to a friend and never got back-it's been 2 years! I think I may get it on dvd-I love kb! I think I may do KB Surge that way-a few combos at a time. And I got a free weeklong pass to a friend's gym-may go try a few cardio classes next week:)
 
Klaudia: Erm, I would quit loaning those puppies out! People discover Cathe and they get greedy, lol. I'm envious of the classes- sometimes I love the energy in a live class- one of the reasons I'm looking forward to the RT.
