Good morning, girls! 
Angie :: sorry the storm got in the way of you getting your Wii…Standing in line is an adventure and must be done at least once in one’s lifetime, IMO. Have you ever *camped out* for anything? I remember back in the day, folks always camped out for concert tickets. I camped out once--for a freakin' Furby for my friend's kids. Don't know if I would do THAT again! I don't do well when I can't get my sleep!......I did see the blog. So if filming is 60% done, any guesses on when we'll see these things?
Wendy :: Thanks! My DSis just sent that to me…it was taken on the cruise by someone in my BIL’s family. Love your new avatar here & on Facebook, too. Great shots! So serious-looking. Still wish we could get these Cabber girls on Facebook. I did get in a nice, little nap, and then got back to work. I finished the draft of one portfolio yesterday. I now have 3 out of 4 “done.” They still need some revision and editing, but I feel much better that I’m gonna make it.
I explained over on the OAL thread that I’m only confident that I’m going to meet the deadline—not that I’m going to achieve. Only about 50% of NB candidates achieve on the first try; in NJ, about 20% make it. So in all likelihood, I will be re-taking certain portions, which I'm cool with. Gotta be realistic, ya know. But anyway, this really ain’t no joke!
I took two back-to-back rest days, so I feel an itch to work out, BUT I am kind of anxious about this one portfolio that remains. It's the hardest one, and I've been struggling through it. I guess play by ear remains the plan. If nothing else, I should probably fit in some yoga to keep things Zen.
BUT if any of my many KB workouts arrive, well, that could change everything. *lol*

Good Morning Ladies,
My legs are still sore today! I did 20min each on the elliptical and stepper yesterday at lunch. I planned on 40 min on the elliptical my legs were really hurting. I'm heading downstairs for more upper body-GS C&T.
It is supposed to be 68 and sunny today. I may try to go out for a short run this afternoon, 3-5 miles. I haven't been running in a very long time. Well not counting the meltdown class where run around an inside track.
Wendy-Do you feel prepared for your 10 mile run this weekend? Is the weather supposed to be nice? Nice avatar! I really need to learn how to do that. Enjoy yoga today.
Cathy-I for one would not be a bit surprised if you fell into the 20% who make it category!! IA regarding being realistic that you may have to re-do certain portions. I looked at KB's at target last night and they are not in my budget right now. It was 39.99 for a 15lb'er and I figured I'd need 2. The dvd's they had were 19.99 I still need to pay for STS-it should be on my bill next month. I camped out overnight for Michael Jackson tickets when I was about 18 and it was one of the best performances I've ever been to.
Angie-I decided to look for a wii for you and they seem to be sold out everywhere. I looked at Target last night and they were out too. I checked on line at Best Buy and they were "sold out". DS bought his from Costco the first day they became available. Is the weather any better today?
Laura-I hope you are feeling much better today. Do you have fun weekend plans to celebrate DH's birthday?
Time to head down for my workout. Have a great day ladies!!

I am feeling MUCH better today .. although no passing yet .. thought it was go yesterday .. but it stopped .. but now my back is easing up and I feel better .. so I am guessing it is in the bladder .. OH JOY .. that means won't be long .. but for now I will take the feeling better and no back pain!!
Had to do the yearly bloodwork this morning .. fasting .. of course my stomach was just a growling .. they are going to do the reg blood work (cholesterol etc) .. then do a uric acid test to see where I am at on that w/my kidney stones! Have a feeling they are going to tell me to cut back on the protien .. x( .. at least the beef and game part ... dang it ... Oh well .. gotta do what ya gotta do!!
Managed a 4 step core/plank/plyo/pushup torture class last night .. the newbie chatter boxes were minus one .. said it was too hard .. HA .. Monday was my EASY class. But one of the chatty ones came back and was saying how sore she was .. but after last night's torture she is sure to be crying today ... }( }(
Cathy ... IA w/Di .. something tells me you just might fall into that 20% .. you have that drive and dedication!! I am pulling for you ... love the avatar BTW!!! Ok .. you have mentioned facebook too much .. so guess I need to check it out ... give me the basics and I will see if it is doable!!
Wendy .. forgot you had a race coming up .. so how are ya feeling about it??? I am sure you will kick@$$!!! }(
Di .. now I don't know about you .. but I would certainly count all the running you do in your meltdown classes as official "running" .. b/c sound like you are kicking butt in those classes.
Angie ... bummer on the weather .. wish I could pipe you some of our sunshine and temps! It is a lovely day today ..sun and high around 74 .. NICE ... LOL about waiting in lines. I am SOOOOO NOT the kind of person to wait in line for anything (except money maybe) .. I don't have the patience .. time .. or desire to wait in line for anything (other than money) .. LOL!!! I despise shopping .. and lines .. and slow customer service .. and the entire scene! LOL .. I say let the boys stand in line for you .. LOL .. you could be running laps around the building until they get up to the counter .. LOL (now you see why I don't have kids .. I would be an evil mom) }(
OK ... no class today .. I think I am going for a run at lunch or this afternoon b/c the weather is so nice .. then go home and tackle bathmax and cleanmax .. the female is in heat .. the male has lost his mind .. so far does not look like they have bred .. think I have warped my male .. he won't do anything if we are around .. and think is in more in love w/his teddy bear than the female ..

Hi Girls,
Back to report the GS C&T (shortened version is done). I only did 2 sets of chest work. I didn't realize it until I started that my chest was still sore from my meltdown class. I also had to skip the band portion of triceps. That's what happens when I get on the computer before my workout.
Okay, you ladies talked me into it. I created a facebook account this morning and will try to create the profile tonight or sometime this weekend.
My next big task is booking our trip to Hawaii for our 20yr anniversary. That makes me sound old doesn't it??? I tried to book the whole trip on united.com and it is more expensive to book it that way. I will probably book the hotel and car together, and the airfare separately. If you know of any great travel websites please let me know.
I still hope to get out and run this afternoon.

DH and I used it to book our honeymoon and we got a FANTASTIC DEAL!!! We didn't use it for airfare though as we didn't see the value in it but it definately was worth it for the cruise we went on!

Good Afternoon Girls!
DS is down for his nap and I'll be following suit very soon! I didn't get enough sleep last night!x(
Despite my lack of sleep though I actually got up and exercised early this morning before work! Amazing, I know! :7 I was doin' TJ Cardo Party at 6:45!!! It was fun. Nice light-hearted wake up work out!:+
Cathy: Hope you get alot done today! So what did you decide as far as a work out goes? If you get writer's block it would probably do you good to take a break and get the mental release of a work out. So after this final portfolio entry what else do you have to do before you can pack all your NB stuff up and ship it out?? I am really sorry but I forgot to write out your check for the mailman before work this morning . I wrote it out once I got home this afternoon though and just have to make sure I haven't misplaced your address. If I need it I will PM you for it and the check will be in the mail tmrw for sure!
Diana: Oh how great that you are aiming to get a run in this afternoon! I'm so happy for you! Good job on your elliptical work out despite the sore legs. Hopefully your legs will feel better tmrw. I am ready for my 10 miler I think. I'm a bit nervous, but always am. ESPECIALLY for the first race of the season! It's like I've never done this before. LOL Then add on the fact that it's a longer distance and I'm sure to be a ball of nerves come Sunday morning. :7 I should do fine though. I'd be thrilled if I could finish with an average pace of 10:30/mile. We'll have to wait and see. LOL Oh, glad to see you on facebook! I accepted your friend request this afternoon.
Laura: Glad the stone is giving you a break. Hope your blood work comes out fine. I gather you are a big fan of red meat, huh? I can take it or leave it myself. I prefer poultry to beef except ofcourse for a good burger...but I rarely eat them anyway. I'm ready for race. Nervous but ready. }( Thanks for the vote of confidence!
K, time for that nap!
BBL!

Hello Ladies.
My yoga is done. I did the first volume of Mark Blanchard's PPY trilogy that I recieved today. I liked it. It's power yoga like I enjoy but the instructor does it a little differently then what I am used to. Some of the poses I have never seen before and will probably NEVER be able to do! LOL
Okay, I'm off to come up with some poor excuse for a dinner!
BBL Peeps!

Hi ladies,
I did get my afternoon run today. I have to say my running endurance is not up to par. I had to walk a couple of times and only ran about 4 miles. I'm not too upset about having to walk considering I haven't been running in months. The weather was beautiful, sunny with a bit of a breeze.
Our trainer sent us a message that she won't be at class tomorrow. She has a sub scheduled but wants to make sure we'll be there. She's also offering a makeup class. I plan on going to the rec ctr and working out whether it be class with a sub or my own thing.
I've checked several websites, booking the airfare separate from hotel and car and they all seem to be very close in price. I hope to book it soon.
I have been eating way too much chocolate today. I may need to get on the elliptical tonight! I'm thinking about doing Imax 3 tomorrow morning. It seems like forever since I've done that w/o. I've also been wanting to do lowmax but not until my legs stop hurting!
Angie-where are you today? Hopefully you are outside playing in the snow and burning calories with a family snowball fight!

Hiya girls
It took me a while just to read thru today's posts. You girls have been busy.:7
It was sunny and pushing 50 today! I know it's not nearly as nice as the weather you all are having but hopefully I will get the last laugh when it gets hot and humid in the summer and I have a cool breeze coming off Lake Michigan. Or, I will be suffering thru the humidity along with everyone else. *lol*
My mom called from St. Augustine FL today and I told her about my quest for a Wii. She and dad went shopping for one today and said they are nowhere to be found. I was like....DUH!:7 I told her if she was in a store to check on them but instead they just went out and hit all the stores. OMG, they must be so bored. I told her that was a waste of gas.....been there, done that. LOL! Bless her heart for trying though.;-) I can tell she misses her baby, but they'll be home next week.
I had some major DOMS today in the chest, upper back and still some lingering leg sorness too. So, I decided to do CC#5 to try and work out some of the kinks. I'm glad I did. My legs were like jello after I finished, but I got a crazy calorie burn. After the workout I made salmon fillets for dinner with broccoli and corn on the cob.:9 The corn was amazingly good considering it's off season.
Cathy - I can only remember waiting in line to see Return of the Jedi when it came out. But I only waited for an hour or so....it wasn't a camp out by any means. Yes, I was/am a Star Wars freak. Every art project I ever did in school had the Star Wars theme in it. I still have the hook rug, paintings, paper mechae'(?sp), etc. It's kinda funny to go back in my "sentimental" collection and see it all.
If they are done filming the STS after next week it really shouldn't take terribly long to finish editing. I originally thought it would be late summer or early fall, but maybe much sooner??? *fingers crossed* I can't believe the long days they put in for filming. They must be exhausted after a full day of that!
Love the new avatar! It looks so summmer-like.
Did the UPS person bring you a new KB workout today?
Diana - Awwwwwww...thanks for looking for the Wii but I'm sure I'll land one soon. I'm persistent! *lol*
How are the girls and Cody feeling?
I heard vrbo.com is a good site to get on if you want a condo instead of a hotel room. But, my BF told me this. She goes on trips all the time and I hardly ever do, so I really don't know about this site firsthand. When are you going?
Laura - Love how you weed out the talkers. Or should I say, transform the talkers into moaners.;-) }(
Do you have a "money" line where you live?? I'm thinking I need to move south already!! LOL!
Actually the kids are very ready and willing to wait in line next week for their Wii. I figured I'd give em a cell phone so they can call me and go next door and look for a filing cabinet I need at Office Max. I've got a plan.;-)
Wendy - You did an AM workout? Good for you! I rarely do that but I feel so accomplished when I do.
I think you'll do great on that run! Let those nerves work in your favor to move your legs. Actually it's probably more difficult to slow up at the beginning so you don't wear yourself out. Is that a challenge for you? Are you going on your own or is someone going with you?
Great job with your friend! 30 pounds is amazing!!
Idol is on....gotta go!

I think you'll do great on that run! Let those nerves work in your favor to move your legs. Actually it's probably more difficult to slow up at the beginning so you don't wear yourself out. Is that a challenge for you? Are you going on your own or is someone going with you?
Great job with your friend! 30 pounds is amazing!!
Idol is on....gotta go!

Hey girls!
I popped in late this afternoon on a break and read the posts but didn't stop for personals as I wanted to plow on with the writing. I’m happy to say I’ve put the last portfolio to bed tonight. WELL—in draft form. I’m hoping my mentors don’t tear it apart too much. Tomorrow I’ll be revising, editing, working with my mentors, and organizing the myriad forms. It’s comin’ together, girls. There is a God.
Strangely this morning, when I went to go make some necessary copies of things, I bought a new laptop on-the-cheap at Office Depot ($429). If you recall, I’ve been having some problems with my laptop recently and bought the external HD as a temporary fix.
Di :: I sent you a friend request on FB. So glad you joined. Thank you for those kind words. I don’t blame anyone for hesitating on the kb’s. I’m sure they are not for everyone. I am still not quite sure why they are so much more expensive than regular ol’ DBs, but I do like training with them. Bet MJ was a great show back in the day. I like hotwire, expedia, and tripadvisor.
Laur :: So glad you’re feeling somewhat better…thank you re: the avatar…I will send you a Facebook invite. Crackin’ up bout the dogs. Hey, at least he ain’t as bad as that moose!
Wendy :: I did not have—or maybe I should say TAKE—the opportunity to workout. I did receive KB Goddess (what a DVD title and if only you could see this broad!) and was tempted, but other than a power nap, I spent the day focused on writing. I'll be glad to get back to a normal routine once this sucker gets mailed off. I have to revise and edit, label everything, and gather & organize a whole mess of forms that have to be in a very precise order. The paperwork shuffle might actually take a day unto itself, believe it or not. No prob bout the check. Glad you liked the new vid.
Hi Ange! Missed ya today. I will keep an eye peeled for the Wii, too. ETA: Oops, there ya are! Snuck by me. I loved the Star Wars movies when I was a kid, too. SW was the first movie I ever went to see in a theater. My mom once made my sister and I ceramic R2D2 mugs that we used as pencil holders. OH man, I remember those hook rugs. Didn't have a SW one, but they were cool. Haven't seen any of the new SW flicks, though.
My neck and shoulders are so danged stiff from being hunched over the computer for days that I am going to see if my massage therapist can squeeze me in for tomorrow. I have some fierce knots!
All right, chickadees--enjoy your night!
