Good morning, cheetahs! http://www.thesmilies.com/smilies/happy/wave.gif

How are we this Friday morning?

I have a field trip today, so I get to wear a hat. Amen! (I am *sooo* lazy about doing my hair these days.) This afternoon will be 4DS KB and SC&C and then it's off to dinner. Would like to squeeze in another tanning session somewhere in there, too.

I'm going to post reminders about the holiday card/gift exchange for a few days for those who may not be getting here on a daily basis. Don't want to leave anyone out. So far, for the card exchange, I have:

Sunny
Jackie
Christine
Lorie
Kristi
Wendy
Shelly
Judy
Carole
Susan (?)
me

For the gift exchange, I have:
Wendy
Lorie
Christine
Kristi
Jackie
Susan (?)
me

Anyone else interested? Any corrections? Please PM me by Sunday. (I'll need your mailing and email addresses.) I would like to take care of the drawing then, so those of us doing the gift exchange have plenty of time to shop and ship before the 12/5 deadline.

Linda, I thought you said you were interested in one or even both, but I can't remember ~ sorry! Wendi, I know, was still debating. Lori, hope you decide to join us! (Just don't ask for dumbbells. :7)

Looking forward to this! It was so fun getting cheetah cards from all over the country last year.

Oh, and if anyone missed the details about how the gift exchange will work, please see y'day's thread.

Have a GREAT day! Will BBL to catch up with everyone. Posted some personals last night, BTW. Not so ya think I blew 'em off! ;)

Good morning cheetahs,

cathy- i was right about to PM you, however I see you have me down for the card exchange. great!! have fun on your field trip today.

carole- the halloween party was alot of fun for the boys. although my youngest was a little of afraid of some of the costumes.

christine- my oldest was mr. sinister (scary) and my baby was batman! too cute...

shelly- does doing legs before a long run bother your legs doing the run at all?

today's workout will be all body attack!

i will check back in later for personals.

have a great day to all!
 
Good Morning!

I am trying to catch up on some post but I am being pulled in directions already today! And I just woke up!!!

Im not sure what todays workout will be. I would LOVE to do BM2 in its entirity...but we will see what DS lets me do.

Im gonna catch up and be back in a bit!!

Lori:)
 
Good Morning Folks.

TGIF!:)

Cathy: Thanks for organzing the gift exchange and the card exchange again. You love to do this kind of stuff, don't ya? Very cool! So where are ya goin' on this fieldtrip? Maybe Joey and I will meet ya there and we can have lunch! LOL ;)

Sunny: Enjoy All Body Attack. I tried to do her cardio a couple of times and wanted to throw the step through the wall! LOL I have done her upper body weight work though and enjoyed it. Have yet to try the lower body but LOVE the abs!:)

Lori: No worries about the cost of shipping to Canada for the gift exchange. We'll just make YOU pay for it!:p :7 :7 :7 Just teasing!:)

Today is yoga only for me. I deserve it after the work outs I did the past 3 days!:p

I'll BBL!
 
Cathy** Enjoy your field trip! Gotta love the days when you don't have to do your hair! hehe My hair is curly so I can't comb it and go on...it needs a little bit of attention everyday!

Sunny** enjoy your workout!!

Shelly** 18 Miles? Im tired just reading that! Think of all the cals you will burn...come home and have a nice slice of cake:) hehe

Wendy** Nope,nope,nope....not paying for my own shipping;) what kind of place is this? hehe

Christine** I to loved the pussy cat yesterday morning:) I think I am going to start some yoga as well, now that I am back to work. Our nights are pretty laid back so I could get some decent stretching in there.

Carole** Good job on the workout yesterday! And only one bar? Im impressed!

Judy** Have fun on your tournament!

Lorie** Hope you enjoyed your rest day yesterday!


Well, I was having such a terrible day yesterday that I decided to tie up my sneakers and run again. I ran my normal route, which takes me 75 mins. It was the first time in a while that I didn't wear my HRM, I just ran...needed to clear my head. I felt better after and I feel ALOT better today. Yesterday had a bad start to it with DS falling off of the bed and everyone blaming everyone else but themselves!
Not sure if I said this already but I would like to do BM2 at some point today, it probably won't be until this afternoon though. Make to earning my pay tonight!!!

Lori:)
 
ugh...i am having SO issues and am in a pissy mood. sorry and i won't bring you all down. it'll work out but i hate dealing with this crap.

anyway...maybe more people don't want to do the gift exchange because of the $$? what if we lowered the price limit? i just think it would be neat for everyone to participate. anyhoo...we do have the card exchange and that's awesome!

i am thinking today is a double barry day but i may just opt for a run. i'm in a "mood" and i have no idea what i want to do. x( since i am in a "mood," i feel like i can do whatever the heck i feel like! :)

i will check in later. i hope everyone is having a wonderful friday!!! TGIF!!!
 
just popped back in to say after i typed in my post i totally decided to change my workout, lol. i went with 4DS legs and KB, whew, what a workout!! i love it}(

wendy- lol, that's the reason i changed my mind didn't feel like figuring out the steps. enjoy your relaxin' yoga workout today:7

lori- hopefully you will be able to manage BM2 while ds naps. does he take long naps?

lori#2- hopefully the SO issues will resolve themselves quickly and you will be able to move on. enjoy your run or double barry today!

ttyl...:D
 
Lorie: (((HUGS))) Hope things with your SO calm down and get back to normal quickly. Go on and run if that's what you wanna do girl! I know what you mean though cause when I am cranky, pissed or whatever I don't want to think about my work out, I just want DO IT! Running fits the bill *perfectly*! Run off the aggravation and then perhaps you will still feel like a little Barry time when you are done!;)


Sunny: I LOVE the 4DS KB/Leg work out. I have yet to do them TOGETHER but both work outs are fantastic IMO. So I gather you've never tried ABA's cardio yet?
 
I don't mind lowering the limit on the gift exchange if it will help get more people involved BUT it becomes harder to think of decent gifts when you go below $20.00 IMHO. DH and I do a grab bag with his family every year and the limit is about $10.00. It's impossible! I run around basically buy cr@p for everyone cause that's all $10 will buy you these days!x( I wouldn't go below $15.00 personally. JMO though. :)
 
i agree. i just want everyone to have the chance to join. although, if it's not the amount of money that's an issue, we can keep the price as is. the card exchange will be GREAT! :)
 
The card exchange was a hoot last year. Adding gifts to it is going to make it even MORE fun!:)

Okay ladies...what do ya say? Will lowering the limit for the gift exchange lure anyone else to join in the fun?? :+
 
i think it's such am GREAT idea that i posted it in the OAL thread to see if anyone was interested. I am so excited to take part!!! :) I love shopping for other people!
 
Good morning amazing, wonderful, totally rockin' Cheetah babes!

I just want to let you all know that I have been lurking but just haven't had time to post this past week. Goodness knows I do have to get my daily Cheetah fix...you guys all keep me going and motivated. In fact, I'm now feeling like a sloth sitting here, having not done a workout this morning but Friday am's are *always* rest days on account of getting home late from bowling on Thursday nights. Last night was actually my first night back to "active duty", no more spectating, and we kicked some serious a$$...woohoo!

I'm going to give it my best to try to squeak something in tonight after work if I don't get home too late. We've got a show tomorrow so I certainly won't be doing anything tomorrow and my eating this week has been *beyond* terrible...week before ttom and Halloween, not good x( :eek: :9!!! So I'm thinking either HIS step + LIS step and Shoulders, maybe I'll give core a go, we'll have to see how I feel on that one. I did put together one of my new favorite cardios yesterday...4DBC warmup and drills, followed by 4DKB warmup and cardio. So much fun and a real calorie burner!

Cathy - Ooh, so sorry I forgot to get back to you regarding the exchange. Count me in for both :7. I'll PM you later with my info. Have fun on your field trip!

Sunny - I was pleasantly surprised with 4DKB and Legs...sharing the love for it right there with you!

Lori - Oh, BM2 is so much fun...I haven't done that one in awhile. I hope you have a chance to get to it today. It sounds like you had a lovely run yesterday! It's been about a week since my last run and I'm already missing it. I can't wait for the time change so I can get to run again in the mornings before work.

Wendy - I love your new avatar...how cute! Where does Christine find these things...or more imprtantly where does she find the time to find these things? Hard at work, I see...J/K Christine!

Lorie - Oh {{{{HUGS}}}} dear! I hope you are able to work things out quickly. Go for that run, girl, if that's what you want to do...I'm sure you'll feel so much better!

Waves a frantic "HI!" to all of Cheetahville, I'm sorry I'm out of time for now. I'll try to pop in later to catch up with everyone else. TTFN!
 
Good Morning Cheetahs!

TGIF Big Time! It’s also the game of the year this weekend – even though I have to take DD14 to her Youth Advisory Board meeting for the Humane Society in the middle of it. Oh well – it’s a good thing she’s doing, so I will not complain. :p Today is Gauntlet – I haven’t done this one in ages! I’m looking forward to it – well except for those terminators… :+

Cathy - Where is the field trip? Those were always so fun when I was kid! Thanks for organizing the card and gift exchange this year! What would we do without you? You do so much for us! Exchanges, t-shirts, etc! Thank you!

Sunny – Oh, too cute, Sunny! I’ll be your boys were so handsome! :p Enjoy All Body Attack – you do so many different workouts!

Lori – Hope you get in BM2! I love that workout! Isn’t running the absolute best way to clear your head? You should add yoga – I’m a convert now. I love the flexibility it gives me.

Wendy – Enjoy your yoga session! Mine yesterday was wonderful! And YES you do deserve it! You’ve been doing killer workouts! I’d rather not lower the limit – because as you said, you cannot get anything decent for under $20.00, but I’ll go with whatever everyone agrees to/

Lorie – I hate when I have issues with DH – it just brings down everything. Go for a run if you want – as I told Lori – nothing better to help clear your head. I hope you’re feeling better! (I’ve also found that a good kickbox workout while envisioning DH as the target helps. *giggles*

Happy Friday everyone!!!
 
Wendi - you snuck in there on me! Oh my job was over sold to me, so I do have a lot of free time. I'd rather be very busy, but it's 2 miles from my house ... can't beat that! Good job on the game last night! Glad you kicked some booty! :p
 
Hi Christine! We were posting at the same time.

How wonderful that your DD is gives her time to the Humane Society...you must be very proud of her! So many kids these days just don't have that kind of initiative anymore.

Enjoy Gauntlet }(! I have to admit that I was terrified of that one when I first previewed it but found that it was just so much fun once I dove in!

Had to LOL at your KB "target" :7.
 
Wendi - I am proud of DD. She loves animals and we've been trying to find volunteer opportunities for her for a while, but nothing really worked as she is not 16 yet. But I happened to meet a VP from the Humane Society and we spoke and this came up. DD14 is thrilled. She loves it, and I love that she's doing it. College is so competitive right now - anything that will give her a leg up is great.
 
Good morning Cheetahs! We are a chatty bunch this morning. This will be a quick post, but this afternoon will be very slow at work so I will be able to catch up on what's going on with my girls!

Here are photos from Halloween. DH made DS's costume, hat, and treat bag. He also made his own Peter Pan costume, without a pattern I might add. My MIL made DD's costume. We all had so much fun.

Today, I think will be a rest day. I need to get stuff together for my family so we can go to Indianapolis for my DB's birthday tomorrow.

I'll BBL to catch up with everyone. I have missed you all.

WAVES to all Cheetahs!
 
Good morning cheetahs

Cathy..sorry about the candy induced belly ache..:(...I am usually always good with the sweet stuff...YUK, you know me, the chips and salsa girl...:)..I bet you will get back on track after the candy is gone. So you like a tan body too?...:)...Have fun with your KB and SC&C today.

Sunny...some of those Halloween masks can be way ugly. I can see why some kids do get scared. Good job with 4DS and KB.

Wendy...I would do exactly the same thing getting Amy's new workout! I get mine Sat and have yet to decided if I should stay with 4DS next week or go to Amy's Slo-mo??..:)...Enjoy Yoga today.

Lori..I am just not a candy person, I prefer salt to sweets!! Glad you got in a good run yesterday...sorry about DS falling off the bed! Hope he is okay....

Lorie...sorry about the SO issues...I have had a few doing the floor with my DH...they can just be buttheads sometimes!! A workout always makes me feel better...

Christine...I am with you on Drop Zone and skydiving...NOPE!! I just really like Coasters. Elephant Bar sounds like an interesting place...I hope you enjoy the Gauntlet.

Wendi...good job on kicking some a$$ last night. I hope you will be able to get in a workout tonight, but if not, enjoy the rest. We all indulge a bit, nothing to feel bad about..:)

Kristi..those Halloween costumes are great!! That is so cool your DH does that! I cannot imagine mine making any kind of costume!! Thanks for sharing...:)

Judy...I hope you have a great time in Chicago. I will check out the link and find your team!

I am still in for the card exchange even if you lowered the gift price. I buy special gifts for all my clients and I think another one would just stress me out!!

I am planning on Amy's APX upper body workout and a 4 mile run in NEW shoes!!!

Have a great day...:)
 
Christine: Enjoy the BIG GAME this weekend! I think it's great that your DD is a part of something so important. :)

Wendi: Great job bowling last night! Hope the show goes well tmrw. No worries if you are very busy and can't make it here. We understand. No sweat girl!

Kristi: Your kids look great for Halloween! Have fun at your DB's this weekend!

Carole: Want to try out Slo Mo with me next week? I am starting my faux X rotation on Monday and can use Amy's during week 1 instead of the 4DS. We can compare notes. :)
