CABs and Abs -- Thursday

[RunninTeach]

Mornin', girls! http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/flowerysmile.gif

I just knocked out PUB abs and will either run or KB this evening.

Angie :: I missed the actual sunset but saw the full moon earlier in the week when the janitor bent over to fix a locker. }( What a treat...*lol* about going on the field trip with the monster classmates. Bribery could work. IA it's nice that you're going with them...Haven't seen the garbage truck again. I would guess the pair that blitzed past me were both in their late teens - one was a very gangly boy and the other was a girl. And they didn't slow down at the top of the hill, either.

Diana :: do you track your points online? I've noticed it won't let you carry over activity pts. into your weekly flex amount, so you either use or lose 'em. That kinda stinks.

Hi Wendy, Laura, and Nancy!

Off to get ready! Get this, I have had to dress for work like it's already winter, not for the actual weather (temps are in the upper 80s this week) because my classroom thermostat can't be controlled and the A/C blows *all the time*! I wore a skirt and a SWEATER yesterday and was freezing the whole day. Crazy, huh?

Morning Cabbers!

Angie: I got doms in my chest from GS Chest the other day!}(

Diana: What's on tap for your work out today? How's work going? Better, worse, same?

Cathy: Don't you pay any attention to the PYT's that passed you on the final hill last night cause ya know what!? When they are in their mid 30's I GARUNTEE you that they will NOT be running any longer! Chances are that they will be sitting on the couch, watching Married with Children re-runs, eating bon-bons and watching their booties grow!:7 }( :7

I feel good this morning. Airborne kicked my cold right out the door! I am taking it for one final day just to be sure though....

I have GS Biceps, some kind of ab work and Itread Intervals #21 on tap for today. I have to suck down one more cup of java and get crackin' if I want to get the bi's and abs in. The cable company is coming when I would normally work out at home to switch our phone svc over from the phone co. to their svc so I won't be able to do bi's and abs AFTER the run.

Alrighty...off to grab that java....BFN!

 

[Fit_mommy]

Biceps and abs are DONE!}(

Gotta get the little one up now and get ready to go to the gym!

Hope everyone is having a great morning.

Hi Ladies,

I did not sleep well again and have no energy to w/o. If possible, I will try to make it to the gym today. Things have changed so much at work I do think it is time for a change. I've been there for 17yrs in several different capacities so changing companies is a little scary. We have had about 8 employees from the IT department leave in the past 2 yrs because things have changed so much.

Cathy-I do track online and love it. Activity points are to be used only on the days they are earned and your're right, they are not added into you weekly flex points.x( Great job with PUB!!! Sorry they cannot regulate the temperature in your room.

Wendy-You are one strong lady. So Airborne does work!! I'll keep that in mind next time I feel a cold coming on.

Angie-Cam will definitely appreciate you being on the field trip with him. I did most of my volunteering at the elementary schoolan some at the middle school. At lets not forget the high school baseball boosters. The kids really do appreciate their parents involvement.

Laura-So are you back on a normal schedule now? What kind of torture do you have planned for tonight.

Have a great day ladies,

Diana

Hi Girls.

My work out is all done! I had to stop my run short of the final high interval because DS decided to be a stinker...LITERALLY!:7 ....so I had to change his diaper and couldn't see coming back to finish out the last 5 minutes so I just cooled down and stretched real quick before I went in to change him. I admit I was disappointed though. I think I was on target for more improvement this time based on my mileage when I stopped but I guess I will have to wait until next week to find out for sure!

Diana: So are you going to begin a job search? You sound like you need to get out of there. Somtimes it's just not worth sticking around!

BBL!

 

[Fit_mommy]

HELLOOO? *raps on door* Is anybody home? Is anybody out there????

Where is everyone!?!?!?!?

I miss my girls!!!!!*pouts*

Come out come out wherever you are!!!!!

 

[rmrmr]

Well I'm still here I keep checking the blog for a shipping update. I'm ready to start a new rotation with them. As you well know, you can't stop mother nature.

Diana .. feel your pain .. was stuck in a meeting ALL freaking day (as the pile of back logged work rots on my desk).. it was useless .. and I have been w/the company for 18 years and today had to go to a "training" class w/some people who are NEWBIES!! ahhhh .. a MILLION questions .. THEN .. to top it off .. they KEPT us thru lunch .. and fed us BARBQUE .. {{ack}}} ...now I am all for a bar-b-q at a party .. but NOT for lunch .. NOT at work .. oooh my stomach was none too happy!

Cathe .. I missed the sunset too.. but did have a beautiful moonlit drive on the way home from the girls night out!! and the XSO of my friend .. his behavior is kinda worrying me ..

Hey, girls! http://www.smileyskit.com/happy-lol-dancing-smileys_files/dance2.gif

Wendy :: http://www.schildersmilies.de/schilder/hia.gif LMBO at your description of those two who blitzed past me last night. I’ll go with the bon-bon theory!…Great job with your w/out today…Glad you are back to feeling fully up-to-snuff!…So Joey Bear pooh-poohed your w/out? Hardy-har-har. http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/happy/happy0036.gif

Diana :: sorry you didn’t get a good night’s sleep again…I think it does say a lot when that many people jump ship…I wish you lots of luck as you figure out what your next move will be. It is understandably terrifying to make that change after so many years...But it sounds as though it's worth the risk...No job is worth the kind of misery it’s causing you...Hope you can bank some zzz's tonight. http://www.vbaexpress.com/forum/images/smilies/sleeping.gif

Laura :: *lol*…So do you EVER have a calm day in that office? http://www.freesmileys.org/emo/whacky098.gif …Speaking of The Office, can’t wait to see the season premiere tonight!…Glad you had fun a girls’ night in celebration of your b’day. How disappointing about your friend. I do understand as my VBF is still MIA. I think I’ve finally just accepted that this is the way it is now.

Ang :: didja survive the field trip? http://www.freesmileys.org/emo/whacky025.gif

OK, I am going to grab a bite to eat and have decided to do some k’boxing http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Leisures_and_Sports/training-087.gif for my cardio tonight.

In case I don't make it back later, enjoy your night!

Hi girls

This post is gonna look so boring compared to Cathy's cute icon posts. They totally make me laugh.:7
I'm tired as all get out! I was on my feet all day long with 5 rug rats...they were pretty good but one girl had this "deer in the headlights look" and never seemed to be able to stick with the group. }( But we all got there and we all got back so it was a success. When I got home I did a Baron Baptiste yoga and it was alright.....there were some moves he did that I'm thinking...ya right....but I did like the fact that his moves were quicker than Tony and the video was half the length. ;-) After that I took a shower and then I easily could've went to bed and stayed there. But, Cody needed to go to practice and Cam had his last game....or so we thought....they both got rained out at the last minute.

Cathy - So, I'm guessing that everyone would be complaining if the AC was turned off? I'll bet you can't wait until winter when they turn it off and you can wear your summer clothes again...lol.
So did I miss something....what' the deal with your VBF....the same type of guy issue as with Laura's friend?
Your posts are just too cute girl!!;-)

Wendy - GC Chest eh? Yup - that'll do it. I have that one coming up in my rotation in a couple of weeks....can't wait for those drop sets....ug!x(
I kinda miss diaper duty, but the next time I will have to deal with that is as a grandma.
So glad you are feelin better!

Diana - Hope you get a chance to get to the gym today. Sounds like you need some stress relief. I'll bet kickboxing would be very therapeudic for ya right now. I'm sure the lack of sleep isn't helping any. Will you get to sleep in soon?

Laura - Doncha just hate useless meetings? Luckily I don't have to go to many of those....one of the benefits of not having a boss.
So are the TB issues complete history now? Have ya been able to do the kicka$$ class yet?

Well girls....the weekend is just around the corner....I just know we'll all make it!

Later gators

Angie

Just back to report I opted for 30 min. of Kickbox Boot Camp (10 Min. Solutions). I wanted to break a sweat but wasn't up to a hardcore Cathe punch n' kickfest. This fit the bit perfectly.

[RunninTeach]

Oh, oops! Angie, somehow your post snuck in there...*lol* about the smileys ~ I'm hooked! And spend a RIDICULOUS amount of time browsing through and inserting them...Glad the field trip went well and no one got lost...My former classroom did have a thermostat that worked and that I could control *most* of the time. But generally, some classrooms are ice cold like mine all the time; others are too warm. It's just funny to me b/c we're always getting memos about being more energy-conscious, and here they have the A/C on *blast* all the time. The aide who works with me one period said she thinks it must be set to about 61!!

My VBF has distanced herself since last Christmas when things got hot & heavy with her boyfriend. She basically goes through phases of vanishing and resurfacing to the point where I now sorta feel like she used my friendship...He was part of our group of friends but was married when we first all started hanging out together, so in retrospect, it seems like maybe the safety of the group allowed them to spend time together...And then in the early stages of their relationship, she still wanted to do girls' nights only to make him jealous or to appear busy sometimes. Once it became serious between the two of them, well, that was that...For awhile there, it started to seem like she was reaching out only when she needed to vent...This summer, we hardly hung out at all, and I found out that her SO's true nature is extremely possessive and jealous, and personally, I believe he has been steering her away from me for months. Done a good job of it, too. It's unfortunate, but I've accepted it's out of my control. If the friendship were a priority, she would make time for it. As they say, actions speak louder than anything else...how's that for a saga?

Hey Cathy - How long were you guys friends before the possessive BF came into the picture? I remember you talking about this now......what a crappy deal! }( In situations like that it's hard to make up your mind on who you want to be mad at......I went thru this same phase with my BF. We have gotten beyond that now but it took a couple of years and our friendship is not quite the calibur that it used to be.:-( I am however, grateful that we did get beyond it and still have a pretty good friendship anyways.
So when was the last time you spoke to her?

Angie
