Hey Girls.

I read Cathy's last post. She will be missed here. :-(

Cathy, if you are reading this, please come by and post when you have the chance! :)

Ang, Glad you had a fantastic weekend! So happy to hear that you got your new puppy. I can't wait to see the pics. I am sure my heart will melt!:+ Hope you survive today at work. I haven't heard how long Tony's new work outs are but I should get the first one this week so I'll let you know. I would say they will be about 45 mins long but that's a TOTAL guess on my part. :7

No work for me today. I am going to the gym to do my HIIT and some steady state. After that I have to pick the dog up from the kennel. Not sure what else is on tap for the rest of the day besides finishing up the laundry. It's *ALMOST* done, thank goodness. Only one or two more loads to go....

BBL~
 
Good Morning Ladies,

I should be downstairs lifting weights... but Jerod has to be at camp early today and I woke up a little later than usual. I blame DH though. I haven't used an alarm in years and usually just wake up while DH is in the shower (with the radio on). He got up later which made me later. Sounds good-right!

I do have bootcamp class on tap for tonight. The temps are going to be in the 90's this week. I had sucked down all my water about half way through class on Thursday. I may need to take a larger water bottle.

Wendy-glad you have a day off to recover from your weekend. It's always so tough to get back into the swing of things. Looking forward to the review of one on one.

Angie-I can't wait to see the pics of the new puppy!!! Does she have a name yet??? I didn't run in the 90 degree temps, I ended up doing press play. That's an awesome workout on the EXT!! I was a sweaty mess after that one.

Laura-So is everthing going to be back to normal this week? The beach house is sold, all the stuff is moved out, the garage sale is over... I hope you get at least a day of rest before teaching your classes this week.

Hi Cathy;-)

Diana: I haven't really used an alarm clock since I had Joey. When Joey's feedings stopped being my "alarm", DH became my alarm just like yours. I would wake up to his alarm or while he was getting ready. Never needed an alarm of my own. It's a nice change after years of using alarm clocks. I think you are right to blame DH. My DH's hours keep changing at work and that screws me up. It's all our DHs' fault. :p :7 Enjoy BC class tonight. I have been using plastic water bottles for years. I will save spring water bottles and/or will use bottles I get in goody bags from races, etc. I use them so much though that they get gross pretty fast. I am actually thinking about investing in a Sigg water bottle. They are expensive but they are supposed to be better. They also sell tablets to clean it with so that they don't get nasty like my plastic ones will get.
 
Morning Ladies ..

MAN .. am I tired .. I almost called boss last night and asked if I could take another vacation day .. but I didn't .. will need it later .. and new it would be busy today!

OK .. how DH packed all our crap in that trlr is beyond me .. once we FINALLY got everything in it and FORCED the door shut we were worried it was too much weight for our vehicle .. but we made it .. and let me add .. THE TRAFFIC .. OMG .. ya'll .. I have never seen the likes of such traffic. When we came upon Dothan, AL the traffic was backed up about 20 miles BEFORE the first set of lights .. I didn't think we would ever get thru there .. what usually would have taken us 10 - 15 minutes .. took over an HOUR!!! :eek: x( After Dothan we opted for some back roads and finally made it home .. and UNLOADED some of the important stuff .. I was WHOOPED!! DH and I were both kinda "testy" by days end .. after we both spouted off at each other but afterwards we both let it go .. and kept out mouths shut .. LOL .. (comes w/practice)

Wendy .. what do you mean Cathy's last post?? I MISSED SOMETHING .. where is Cathy going??? how was AC ?? any winnings .. we actually fit in a trip to Shorter and hit the slots for a bit .. OMG .. I was palying the 5 cent machines .. and I hit $380.00 .. cashed out .. DH got on the same machine and hit a couple of times .. then I fussed so he let me back on .. I spun 3 times and hit $425.00 .. :eek: }( :D :7 .. OH yea .. I cashed out and got the heck outta dodge .. WOOO HOOO .. laptop is paid for!! :7

Di .. we are moved out .. turned over keys .. and although tired feel a sense of releif ..unfortunately .. no rest for the weary .. had to come in to work .. and have to teach tonight .. my legs, back and shoulders are sore from all the lifting .. so is DH .. we still have to unpack .. and even harder find somewhere to put all the crap .. LOL!! so maybe by the weekend I will be able to relax and get some "down" time!!

Angie .. OOOOHHHHH .. I am so excited for you .. I know you LOVE your new pup .. can't wait to see some pictures of her!! Bet she is precious ... post them when you can!!! Gotta busy day huh?? me too!! It is day after a holiday and the first of the month .. PLUS me coming back to my desk after 2 days off .. work is stacked up .. and this dang phone is ringing off the hook .. humph ... tonight's class is gonna be a killer .. feels like I haven't taught or exercised in a month .. LOL!!!

Cathy ..what is this about not posting??? Girl .. you are our ray of sunshine .. what ever will we do?? I will be reduced to a grumpy old complaining black cloud .. LOL ... whatever the reason I hope we hear from you ...

OK .. girls it has taken me forever to type this .. gotta run ... hope everyone has a good Monday .. well .. as good as Monday can get right?? Wish me luck in class tonight .. I might just pass out .. LOL :7
 
Laura: Cathy is busy and finding it hard to keep up with multiple threads. It's not that she is leaving forever I don't think. Just taking a break to free up some time. I'm sure she'll pop in from time to time still. :) You are one lucky girl on those slots! I couldn't hit anything this weekend! We still had fun the gambling was pretty awful. I was down from the word GO!x( Oh well. This is what one needs to expect and accept or one shouldn't gamble!:p We ate fabulous meals and I was gettin' down with some yummy chocolate martinis! HEAVEN!:9
 
Wendy ... too bad on the slots!! but hey .. you gotta take what you are willing to loose and consider it a plus if you win .. for me that was the MOST I have ever won .. and I knew not to press my luck .. LOL ... unfortunately . . you win .. you loose .. you loose .. you loose again .. LOL .. .

no chocolate martini's for me .. but MAN were those cold coors lights going down good .. think I sweated them out pretty fast ..b/c I consumed many .. LOL ..

I guess the CABS and being so tired from moving helped ease the pain of sadness knowing it was our last weekend in the house!!;( .. I was just too tired to feel sad ... now I do feel a sense of relief and longing to be at MY home ... :)

Glad everything is ok w/Cathy .. that worried me ... thanks for letting me know ...
 
Laura: Aaaaah, I am a CL girl at heart myself but when someone else is makin' em and ya don't have to pay for 'em, heck, I go for the fancier stuff!;) Actually, there is a regular chocolate martini and a white chocolate one. The regular chocolate would run more $ then I am willing to spend to be able to make it at home but I found out this weekend that the white chocolate is quite economical. I'm going to be heading to the liquor store this week!:9
Oh and I forgot to mention my shopping experience while in A/C. DH and I headed for the outlets on saturday....I picked up a new Coach purse for a STEAL and my first pair of Ecco shoes. I never bought into them cause they are boku bucks but they had a pair of cute sandals on sale for cheap so I grabbed 'em! The shopping makes up for the gambling losses!;)
 
Hi girls

It's so stinkin' hot and sticky! I came home after work and and enjoyed IMAX2.:) I'm so thankful the basement is cooler. It felt good to finally do a Cathe without guilt of messing up a rotation.
Gma came and picked up the boys and took them to their house on the lake. Cam didn't swim much b/c he was too busy babysitting the pup. My mom said he didn't want to leave her side.:)

Wendy - I'm so jealous that you are all caught up with your laundry. Mine is in a smelly mess on the floor in the washroom. The humidity is making it smell not so good so I will be hitting that tomorrow morning when it is cooler - I hope. Storms are moving our way in the next couple of hours so hopefully that will cool things down.
Is the Sigg water bottle the aluminum one?
I can't wait to see what you think of the 1 on 1 w/o. You'll have to do that one as soon as you get it and let me know what your thoughts are.
I'd never be able to use DH's alarm clock. He get's up at 4:30!:eek: A bit too early for me... OK - a LOT too early for me!:7
Awesome score on the shopping front. I just love a great bargain.

Diana - Dang that DH making you late! *lol* Is he on vacation or something?
PP is great on the EXT isn't it? Definitely a GOOD workout!
I think we're gonna name the pooch Snoopy. DH and Cody don't really care for the name, but unless they can come up with something else by Thursday, it's gonna have to stick. She's got a vet appt. for shots on Thurs, so I've set that as a deadline since she needs to start to get used to a name. Anybody got any suggestions? I'm not completely set on the name but thus far I haven't heard anything else that I like.

Laura - Woooohoooo on the slots! I'm not much of a gambler, so I hardly ever win. Kinda hard to win when I don't play huh? *lol*
What a busy weekend and day for you. Sorry it was so dang busy, but looking ahead, things should slow down a bit anyways.
I hate traffic! If that doesn't make a person cranky, nothin will. Luckily we go south to camp and north to come home which is just the opposite of everyone else. We hardly ever have to deal with traffic that way but the road going the opposite way is always packed.
Hope you find some energy to get thru that class tonight. I'll bet the first 5 minutes will be tough, and after that - you'll soar like you always do and inflict torture like the pro you are.;-)

Hi Cathe - I'm missing you so much already.:(

Oh crap - the little monster just woke up again. Gotta jet....
 
>>>It's so stinkin' hot and sticky! I came home after work and and enjoyed IMAX2. I'm so thankful the basement is cooler. It felt good to finally do a Cathe without guilt of messing up a rotation.<<<

So then what are you planning on doing next? You always have a rotation up your sleeve. You never flounder for long!

>>>Gma came and picked up the boys and took them to their house on the lake. Cam didn't swim much b/c he was too busy babysitting the pup. My mom said he didn't want to leave her side.<<<

How sweet. That pup is loved for sure!

I can see the bottom of my hamper and almost all of the clothes are even put away! This is nothing short of AMAZING for me! I stink at doing laundry! No pun intended! LOL

>>>Is the Sigg water bottle the aluminum one?<<<

Yes ma'am. We'll see if it's worth it's cost or not!:eek:

>>>I can't wait to see what you think of the 1 on 1 w/o. You'll have to do that one as soon as you get it and let me know what your thoughts are.<<<

I will be sure and give it a review asap for ya!:)

>>>I'd never be able to use DH's alarm clock. He get's up at 4:30! A bit too early for me... OK - a LOT too early for me!<<<

LOL, yeah 430 is a bit on the early side for me too...unless I can't sleep for some reason.

>>>Awesome score on the shopping front. I just love a great bargain.<<<

Don't we all, girl! Don't we all!}(
