GM my cabber girls - http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Drinks/blue-loves-coffee.gif

So I called the shelter first thing this morning. The lady I spoke with had all the right answers.:) So it looks like there will be one of these in the near future http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Cats_and_Dogs/mini-dog-2.gif Unfortunately, they are only 4 weeks old so they wont be ready to go for another 3 weeks. That will give us time to soak it in and get ready for our new baby. She's raising them out of her house and asked me all the right questions. She said anytime we want to come and take a peek to just let her know and she will make arrangements to be there. She told me she would try to post pics within the next couple of days and would give me the pick of the litter. OK - now I'm getting excited!!
So, since there will be no reason to hit the road today, I will be packing up all my garage sale stuff and taking it over to my moms. It will be an all-day affair I'm sure.:7

Cathy - Lemme guess - I see plans on Wednesday consisting of kicking up your feet and watching a kicka$$ game.;-)
I'll be bringing some chiller samples for you in August. Are there any in particular you would like to see?
Do your students read all the books on your list over the summer?

Hi to the rest of you girls.

I'll BBL
 
Morning Ladies!

WOOOO HOOOOOO Angie!! I am so happy for you ... I know you are excited!! A new pup .. awwwwwww .. can smell the precious puppy breath already!!! :) I am sure this little pup has no idea how much love is coming her way!!! :*

Well .. my class was PACKED last night :eek: WTH??? I dont get it .. this has been the strangest couple of months .. unlike any in the past!! Had planned on 1/2 and 1/2 class but had new people so had to "dumb down" the choreography so ended up teaching circuit w/heavy emphasis on lower body!!

So my chest is DOM'ing from BBC .. my butt and abs are DOM'ing from my class!!:) SIL was already hurting in her chest by the time class rolled around .. I know she is hurting today!! :)

So my new HP laptop has shipped .. I do hope I got all of what I need on it .. I worry I forgot something I wanted .. didn't get Microsoft office either Angie .. I can actually get it from work for my personal computer .. but have it on the Dell desktop .. so really so no need for it .. I am going to go w/Verizon wireless for my internet .. you could order the VW card but the CS rep said it was built in .. not from what I could tell .. maybe he knows more than me .. LOL!!!! Should be getting it tommorrow!! Keep your fingers crossed I didn't have a dumb blonde moment and get the wrong configuration on it!!:D

Cathy .. never been much into soccer but those players are awesome .. we keep soccer on here at work on the sports channell .. some of those guys are pretty nice to look at huh??? Speaking of .. did you see Beckam's new add??? OMG .. Victoria has got to be one HAPPY woman!!! ;) }(

Wendy .. sounds like the potty training is coming along fine . . I would stick to the theory of consistancy .. like I said VBF owns a day care .. they have set times to "potty" whether they want to or not and she usually ends up potty training the kids that come to her!! LOL She swears by consistancy being the key!!!

Di .. I am like Angie your BC classes sound extremely tough .. I would probably pass out .. you surely not need to worry about your cardio or endurance while doing those BC classes!!:)

Angie .. meant to say WTG on the X .. My goodness as hard as yesterday's BBC was if I go back to the X Tony is going to kick my ARSE!!! I remember the pushu up/pull up torture .. YIKES!!! thanks for the well wishes w/this house deal .. we will work thru it and I am praying everything works out as it should .. and we are finally working thru it TOGETHER .. so that makes dealing w/it a LOT better!!! Still have those "undercurrent" feelings(as I call them) ... seems something is still not right w/this entire scenerio .. but hopefully I am reading something wrong .. ?? aahhhhh .. trying to stay positive!!:)

OK .. better run .. we have a huge collection day ahead of us .. :( .. will be uber busy and uber stressed!! Ya'll have a great day .. will BBL if I can to check in w/you girlies!:7
 
Hi Ladies,

I ran my scheduled 3 miles this morning and the weather was perfect. I followed that up with 4DS CST. For some reason my garmin has the wrong date again. When I downloaded my info to the training center it recorded it as June 21st. So it looks like I ran twice on Saturday and nothing for today. I just don't get it-And I can't figure out how to move it to today. Any ideas Cathy??

In BC last night we ran a timed mile. I ran it in 8:19 which is superfast for me. I'm usually between 9 and 10 minutes per mile.

Angie-I'm so excited to hear about your new puppy. You get the pick of the litter too!!! Send us pics once you pick one out. C&B is one tough w/o. I hate all those pushups-even still.

Laura-You will love your new laptop. I would've thought they would send you a wireless air card, these are not usually built in. What is built is wireless access, but if you don't have internet access at your house it won't do anything. I love the BBC w/o's. Great job on that and a full class!!

Wendy-Don't stress too much about the pt. Joey will get there when he is ready, but consistency is the only way. How did you like the intervals on the elliptical yesterday?

Cathy-So the bookworm in you is coming out for the summer! I can't seem to get through NROL. Between work, baseball and bootcamp my reading has fallen by the wayside. I'm playing the weights by ear too since my main focus is on the marathon training. Glad you are enjoying your off time to catch up on your favorite sports!

BBL

Ang: So what kind of pup are you getting? Boy, girl? Named it yet? LOL

Laura: TBH the one thing that really has NOT worked with DS is making him sit at certain times. That's how we started but he RARELY went. He has shown great improvement since we just stripped his bottoms off and let him go potty when he needs to. Ofcourse we ask and remind but that's it and he's doing very well so I'm happy with it. :)

Diana: Nice fast mile there girl! You go! I ended up doing my intervals on the TM y'day. I did hill runs.

Cathy: So what's on your work out agenda for today?

So I am supposed to do AB stage 2 work out A today. In addition I just got a new KB wrok out delivered to my door. Both are brand new to me so now I must decide which to do today. }( It's the first resistance work out of the week so doesn't truly matter. I'll just go with my mood. :7
 
Di .. that is what I thought on the card .. the guy instisted it was built in .. but from what it said on line it is not .. I can get it cheaper anyway thru Verizon (get a discount and it is cheaper anyway) .. sooooo .. I will probably go ahead and get it ..

Maybe he was getting confused b/c I did mention I had internet access at the house ..which BTW will be canceled .. LOL .. ???

It will be nice to have something portable since I seem to be in the road all the time anyway!! :D

WTG on the fast mile!! YA!!! great time .. when I was running races I averaged an 8 minute mile .. I would probably pass out now running that!! My best time for a 5 K was 21.15 .. I still have my "trophy" .. but would probably do good clocking a 35 now .. LOL!!!

Wendy .. hey .. if what you are doing w/Joey is working stick w/it!! LOL... little boys ... they are tricky .. LOL!!! WOO HOO if he is PeePeeing in the potty .. he will have the hang of it soon enough .. seems my nephew had a hard time at first then all of a sudden he "got it" .. like it just clicked .. (we were worried there for a while though) .. LOL!!!

OK .. BBC shoulder and back done!! WHEW .. worked up quite a sweat .. then came back to work and had AUDITORS .. {{{ ack }} :eek: ... hate the million questions... HOPEFULLY they are done w/me now .. :)

OK . better run .. have a great one!:7
 
>>>My best time for a 5 K was 21.15<<<

Holy smokes, Laura! That is FAST! You should be VERY proud of that time! When did you do that? :)
 
Hola~ :)

Ange...YEAH!!!! :7 :7 :7 Great, great news! I'm sooo stoked for you guys and look forward to seeing the pics...I don't have a reading list personally assigned. Our district requires that students read one book at each grade level.

Laura...had to chuckle over the expression "precious puppy breath." :) Becks is a little too metro for my tastes, actually. It crosses a line for me when a man paints his nails and shaves his pits. *lol*

Di...that is odd about your Garmin...I don't upload my info anymore, so I'm not sure how you might move the info. Have you checked the settings on the watch itself? Maybe you accidentally reset it somehow?...Well, I have only had one day off so far. :) Most games I have seen have been on weekends or replays.

Wendy...as mentioned on the cheetahs thread, the only agenda is no agenda. :) Operating purely on flight of fancy here. Enjoy your workout, whatever you wind up doing.

Off to chill for a bit before deciding on a workout. Have a gn!

"Do you want to feel my spatula?" Run, Fat Boy, Run
 
It was about 5 years ago .. BEFORE my knee injury ..

I used to run all the time .. ran trails mainly .. averaged a couple of miles a day but on the weekend I would run anywhere from 5 - 8 per day .. I credited my long legs and Daddy's genes ..he ran track at Auburn University!! :)

Yeah .. it was great b/c the company had a team .. I never ran races .. just for fitness .. there were 2 COCKY guys on my team that did not want me on it .. b/c of course women run slower than men .. when I passed one .. the look on his face was priceless!! he never gave me the time of day until I blew his socks off .. LOL!! Gotta love it!! I sprinted at the finish line .. and just about threw up in front of everyone!! LOL .. uummm .. I am a little competitive can you tell??? LOL

when my knee got injured I had to quite running and stepping ... it will never be the same .. BUT .. luckily .. running does not bother it any more .. just have to watch the terraine!!
 
Laura: Great story! Gotta love when you show a cocky man up, huh? LOL Glad you can run again these days so long as you are careful!

Cathy: Enjoy your chosen work out! Sometimes not following a rotation can be the best thing you do for yourself! Enjoy it!:)

Well I held fast to my plan. I did not even OPEN my new kb work out cause I KNEW that would tempt me even more. I went ahead and did my AB work out as originally scheduled. I will try the KB work out on thursday or saturday. :)

Gotta go for now.

BBL!
 
Hi again

Was busy today getting the garage sale stuff set up. I wasn't really expecting to be there all day, but everything is pretty much set to go on Thursday.:) OMG, we have sooooo much stuff! My sister is coming up and bringing some things too. I have no idea where we're gonna put it all. Hopefully the stuff sells fast!
I finally got home and banged out PlyoX. Then was supposed to have steak for dinner, but it wasn't defrosted yet, so I made pizza. Ya gotta do what ya gotta do I guess.:9

Laura - I'll post a link to the pics when I get them. Apparently the woman I'm talking to is a bit tech challenged. Ya, I can relate. *lol* Anyways she's waiting for help from someone so she can post them hopefully by the end of the week. I'm gonna let mama beagle know that she won't have to worry about her baby b/c I know this pup will get showered with love.
Boy, I wish I could help you on the WiFi card thing. I think mine came with it, but I had a local guy build my puter and he was quite aware of the fact that I was tech challenged, so he made it easy as pie for me.;-)
Regarding the house thing - I say trust your instincts. If something feels off...it usually is. Maybe dig a bit deeper?
Auditors? ACK! My worst nightmare. It's not that I'm hiding anything, but what a nail biter and time consuming process. I'm sure they would find things that I may not be doing quite right. Although, I've never had to deal with an actual major audit thankfully.
Love the running story. How did you injure your knee? It didn't have anything to do with CABs did it?

Wendy - I saw the post in the OF and glad to hear you are making PT progress. I'll be right there with you in a few weeks, but I doubt a diaper would work very well on a pup. *lol*
We are getting a girl....gotta balance out the hormones in this family. We haven't decided on a name. I guess we'd better start thinking of one. Any suggestions?
More new workouts??? :eek: :7 You must have done every w/o on the planet! Hope you like them.

Diana - Oh yea, last time for X C&B for a while for me.:7
Great job getting good time on that run.
Are things getting back to normal at the house with the girls home?
What did you decide on with that PT training?

Cathy - Thanks for the nice words. I hope it all works out but, again, I'm trying to not get TOO excited just yet about everything b/c I know things can fall thru. Although, when the pics get posted I'm gonna have a hard time keeping it in check.
I'll be lucky to get the boys to read one book over the summer. *lol* I've been making them read a chapter before Wii time. So far, so good. I just wish they enjoyed reading more.
Didya get that workout in this afternoon?

Alright girls - I have a mess in the kitchen to clean up. BBL
 
I did chest, shoulders, tri's and abs from Supersets plus some add'l pushups. Been a long time since I visited that one. I really went heavy (for me) on tri's, using 15#s on the lying on the ball extensions. I may be feeling it tomorrow (I hope). :7

Wendy...looking forward to hearing what you think about the kettlebell goddess, Mrs. Smiley. :) Maybe I'll try another segment of hers later in the week.

Angie...Hope you make a killing on the garage sale...I do understand not wanting to get ahead of yourself with anticipation...Sometimes with reading, it is just a matter of getting the right material in the right kid's hands. The research suggests that kids should read 4-5 books over the summer break to maintain their skills. So, with any luck, Cody'll get hooked on the Cirque series. :) A lot of my sports-minded boys this year also liked books by Carl Deuker, John Feinstein, and Mike Lupica. Is he going into 7th or 8th?

Di...I just hung up with one of my cheetah pals, and I believe she has enabled me on NROL4W. *lol* I may join you in your reading. :7

Have a great night!
 
Ang: Yeah, I'd rather be training a pup then my son!:7 What kind of dog is it that you are getting? Sounds like you are going to have yourself one large garage sale! Hope you can rake in some cash for your stuff! Remember: One man's trash is another man's treasure! Or so they say anyway!:7

Cathy: So who enabled you on NROL4W? It had to be either Lorie or Judy! LOL Judy is making me want to do it so bad but I think I am going to wait it out a while yet. I have so many other things I want to do! Too many work outs, too little time. I know I say it alot but it's so true! }(
 
Good evening girls

When it rains it pours doesn't it? I just got a call from my sis. Guess what? She found me a beagle. http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Cats_and_Dogs/dog14.gif What do you want to bet that now that I've found one, we'll get all kinds of calls from folks who have found us a beagle?? *lol* Well, these beagles will be ready to go in a week and we will be downstate camping (I think) over the 4th weekend. So, we could take a 10 minute ride down the road and check them out. I should get pics from this other litter by the end of this week so I think I should be able to tell which one I want, although it's really hard to tell by looks alone, but I guess that's all I've got to work with. Geez, now I feel like I got beagles coming out of me ears.

Wendy - Well, that probably answered your question. We've decided on another beagle. All in all, the hair issue is not as big of a deal as I thought. It sure beats having them groomed all the time at $50 a pop. :eek: And, they always look good. We are just a beagle family at heart.
Yup, I should get some pretty good $$$. We have good garage sales. Mom and I are very organized with our sales and don't try and sell junk. Everything we have is useful.....just not to us anymore. Heck, most of my clothes still have tags on them.:7 There's also quite a selection of workout vids. Nothing GOOD though since none of them are Cathe's.;)
IA, with the potty training. *lol* I much prefer the K-9 over the kid. Boys and PT can be maddening!! http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Confused/stupid.gif

Cathy - Ohhhhh Supersets is a goodie - like the exercises and the music. 15# with tris? That should be DOMS city. It does it for me anyways.
Cody's going into 8th next year and Cam into 5th. My babies are growing up. They spent all day today in the lake while I helped mom. They are lovin' summer so far. Thanks for the author suggestions! I'll have to write those down.
Can you hold off on NROWL4W for a few weeks? It will give me the kick in the pants I need to finally READ it and then I can give you the copy I have.

Check you later cabbers
