Morning, girls! :7

I posted this Monday morning face on the OAL thread and thought you girls might appreciate it:

Wendy :: love the curly hair on you. :) Glad you enjoyed yourselves at the festivities...I only have Providence but I plan to order the other two. I started with a 15 lb. kb (bought it at Target) and just picked up a 25 lber (from Dick's) this weekend. I plan to use both. For some moves, the 25 would be too heavy. One of Anthony's workouts (I think it's Firepower) uses two bells, so I am hoping to get another 15 lb. to make the pair. I saw that, too, that Cathe will be selling kettlebells, but I haven't heard/seen anything about a workout in the works. Oh, Dick's also has Iron Core #2, which I think is a good DVD to start with.

Angie :: love the new avatar. Too cute! :)

Plan for today is IC#2 and writing, writing, writing. Gotta pick up the films, too, and see if I can back into the school for an important paper I forgot. If I can't, I'm really screwed, but I'm not gonna think about that.

Hi ya Ladies!

I hope everyone had a lovely holiday y'day.

I slept a leetle later then usual this morning. I had a pretty restless night to start with so even though I was tired and went to bed at 9:30, I didn't get any solid sleep until after midnight. ACK!x(

I have some really nice DOMS from ME. EVERYTHING hurts but NOTHING hurts TOO much. Thank you Cathe!:7

Today is cardio and I am having trouble deciding between a run, a Turbo Jam cardio or Imax 2. Imax is tugging at me cause I haven't done it in a while and have thought about it time and time again BUT I am dyin' to do ITread 21 intervals as I haven't done that in a while either and TJ? Well, they are just so much darned fun that they can be hard to resist!:7 Decisions!!!!}(

Cathy: Another duplicate thread this morning! LOL Cute picture! That's me every morning before I have my coffee! LOL
Thanks re: the hair. It's a little "wild" right now cause it's brandy-new but it will calm down over time. I really like it though. Talk about EASIER...OMG! That is why I decided to do it!:) It could make looking human in the morning a challenge though as I usually take my showers in the afternoon but I'll work on it.

Well, time for more java!

BBL!:)
 
Darn -- I missed that again or I'd have moved mine over to your thread.

Sorry about the bad night's sleep.

I went to bed late, too, and am draggin' a little. Hung out with BF and her SO. She's doing well and looks great.

I used to get perms in HS and remember it usually took a few days for it to unkink to where I wanted it.

Hello Ladies!

Well .. seems everyone had a great Easter! I did too ... except I have another kidney stone and it decided to start moving on me yesterday.. so that put a kink in things!!x( .. I found out last week the bottled water here at work is MINERAL water .. WTH??? .. no wonder I keep kidney stones .. that is a big no no for me .. I did not know that .. and I drink enough water to kill someone .. $%@$#%@$# .. so now I have my own supply of purified water.

...ANYWAY.. I did Easter Bunny duty!! My nephew was a hoot!! he had THE best time .. after we hid eggs for him .. he had to hide them for us .. TOO FUNNY!! Sat. we all got together and dyed them .. OMG .. he was on a roll Sat. afternoon .. he is in the "let me test how far I can push Mommy" phase .. and boy did he test her .. (blame on a sugar high) .. LOL!! But all in all a very good weekend.

No workouts b/c of the freaking stone .. my back is still killing me and having spasms of pain every now and then .. and yes I am at work .. I walked in to find PIA NOT here .. off fiddle fartin around doing "errands" for a charity event .. WTF??? I don't get it .. I just really don't get it! x( x(

Anyway ... I skipped my lunch workout today b/c of the back .. and I feel like crap .. but if it does not get any worse I plan on trying to attempt to teach class ... probably an easy circuit class. I was sore for 2 days after Thursday night's torture!! LOL

Cathy - woo hoo on the films!! See I had a feeling CABS inspire and nuture the creative juices flowing within us!! aahhhh ... and so nice of you to think of your cyber pals w/the Wii! I LOVE the snow bunny!! Too cute . that is a keeper!!

Wendy - love your hair .. and the new avatar!! IA w/Cathy .. girl you have more willpower than anyone I know!! PLEASE pass some my way ... I have got to be good this week .. getting bloodwork done!! I have a Omron body fat measurer too! I find it is pretty acurate!! I also have the BF % scales (yes I actually do own a pair of scales .. although they are quite dusty) .. the scales seem to measure way too low to me though!!

Angie - hope the MIL Easter taco dinner was good! I was always a kid that LOVED Easter too .. just loved finding those eggs! yeah .. I didn't think about you having snow .. WOW . . huge difference here.. we had a gorgeous day .. and lots of green grass to hide them in.

Di .. hope the twins are better!! Do let us know about them!! Hope your sons B-day was a good one .. wasn't it this weekend too??

Well after our gorgeous weekend .. and I am sure everyone worked in their yards and put their flowers out .. the temps are to nose dive down past freezing tonight .. :eek: .. I hope the flowers survive!! got bring in all ours tonight.

Ok .. better run .. hoping the kidney stones holds at bay .. and I can get a workout in... and if I don't appear on the boards this week .. you will know I am at home having a lovely time passing the freaking stone!!x(

Have a great one!!:7
 
Hi ladies,

I was a sloth this weekend and didn't workout at all. I did have plenty of veggies as my contribution to Easter dinner was a veggie platter, twice baked potatoes and baked sweet potatoes. The only downfall was a slice of chocolate cheesecake that still has my stomach hurting today. It tasted really good but I still feel yucky today!

I'm heading to the rec ctr at lunch for some heavy leg work and maybe 30 min of cardio. I do have my meltdown class tonight so I'll get plent of stair running, low hurdle jumping etc.

Wendy-glad to hear Joey enjoyed Easter. Your hair looks great and I love the new avatar. I wish I had your will power! I certainly good have used it yesterday with that stickin' cheesecake.

Cathy-You've got me looking at kettlebells now! I've looked at them several times at target but so far have been able to walk away. I think if I found some good w/o dvd's for them I wouldn't be hesitating. You have this week off to finish up NB work, right? November seems like such a long time to wait to find out how you did.

Angie-I hope you get the wii on Tuesday. Zach got a t-shirt for his birthday that says wii-tarded. We laughed so hard. The whole family will enjoy the wii! Sorry your company stayed so late.

Laura-Cody's 20th birthday was yesterday. He was sick and we didn't do much except celebrate Easter. I'm so sorry to hear about another kidney stone attack. Sounds like maybe the mineral water is the culprit. Now that you're switching up your water maybe this attacks will stop. The girls are still sick, we were told 7-10 days before they are better. What a great Auntie you are!!!

Hey Peeps.

I'm done with my work out. I decided on the IMAX 2 Blastmania premix, 5 mins rest (as per NROL) and then Turbo Jam 20 min work out. Now I need a shower and I can FINALLY wash my hair!!!! That's the only thing that stinks about perms...ya can't wash your hair the next day!

BBL for personals! :)
 
Cathy: RE the Wii. If you are busy and would prefer to mail it at some point this week that's totally fine with me. Priority Mail would be great but please insure it! Let me know the grand total and I'll drop a check in the mail ASAP!:)

Hello Laura, Diana and Angie! I'll be back to do more personals a little later!:)
 
Hey ladies,

I got in a great heavy leg w/o at lunch. I finished up with weighted ab work and 10 mins on the rec bike.

Squats
2 sets 12-95lbs
2 sets 10-105ls

Lunges
1 set 12-45lbs
3 sets 12-65lbs

Plie Squats-dumbell
1 set 12 at 35lbs

Leg curls
2 sets 12 at 70lbs
1 set 12 at 60lbs
1 set 12 at 55lbs

Wendy-I bet your hair looks beautiful. By the way, I would rather run 10 miles than do 5 min of SS. (no, I'm not kidding). I'm so looking forward to whatever rotation you come up with for me.

I'll bbl after my meltdown class.

Diana
 
Just a quick pop-in to let Wendy know: OK on the Wii. I will likely send it off tomorrow or Wednesday.

Nixed IC#2. I'm on a roll here and am farther behind than I'd like to be, so I can't stop.

Catch you all in the AM!
 
Hi ladies

It was a beautifully sunny day here, although cold. But hey, I'll take the sun all day long!!
I got home and did GS legs....I'm gonna be hurtin' tomorrow. Heck, I'm hurtin' now!}(

Cathy - I cracked up at your smilie this morning.:+ Too cute.
I had some spare time this weekend and someone else on the main board was asking about the avatar pic so I fiddled around with it and finally got it. What can I say? I'm a little slow with that kind of stuff.x(
Hope you were able to get that paper you needed tonight. The countdown is on! By this time next week you'll be able to relax.:)
Did you have CABs last night as expected?
The kb workouts sound great, but ya, they are pricey aren't they?

Wendy - Your hair is cute. My mom always gave my perms and they never looked that good the first day out. I guess that's what I get for not paying a real hairdresser to do it. *lol*
I got to bed late last night too. Now I'm hooked on DIRT on FX. Courney Cox is in it and she is nothing like her character on Friends. It can get a bit riskey' at times for sure.

Laura - At least you know now what is probably causing those darned stones. I'm sure that's not much comfort to you right now though. I hope you can pass that sucker pronto.
I laughed about your nephew testing his mom. I don't think that phase ever ends does it??:7 My youngest drives me nuts with it! He's constantly pushing the limits.
Yesterday we were hiding eggs in the snow and it was snowing too! We're supposed to get snow tomorrow and the forecast is in the 30's in the daytime for the next week straight and freezing at night. Not one single day in the 40's.}( x( I just want to cry!
Any luck shopping for that laptop this weekend?

Diana - Have fun with your class tonight.
How could anyone in their right mind pass up chocolate cheesecake???:9 I would've been all over that!
*lol* at the Wii-tarded shirt. My kids would resemble that shirt I'm sure.
Wow! You sure do use heavy weights girl. Those squats gotta hurt!x( I'm gonna feel like such a wimp if you don't have leg DOMS tomorrow.

Well, tomorrow it's off to wally world to capture the ellusive Wii. I wonder if they have kb's? Maybe I'd better stay out of sporting goods.;-)

Later girls

Angie
