::: CHEETAHS ::: Friday!!!

RunninTeach

Cathlete
[font face= “bookman old style”]Morning, cheetahs! :) Happy Friday!

Carole :: glad you had a pain-free run and workout…that’s promising!!…I would prefer to go Fri – Mon, too… I will keep playing around with flights and see if I can a reasonable fare…but since I am not sure if I will even get approved for two days in *any* combination, I would suggest that it’s better for those who are *certain* they are going to book, and I’ll do my best to work with it. Loved the pic of Sadie. She just looks so cuddly.

Gayle :: *lol* about 8 in a room. Yeah, that price was for 2 to a room. I think with 3 to a room it goes to $350. We can do a couple cheap buffets for food and get old men to buy us drinks. It’s a plan! *lol*…So glad your TM fixed. Sounds like a great guy you have there.

Jackie :: how’s your foot feeling today? Was it just a fluke thing from the shoe?

Elaine :: that is interesting that your DS had an IEP but did not have any support all day long. Is he on the verge of being de-classified? I posted to Carole above that I would prefer to do Fri – Mon also, but the way it looks right now, the airfare deal would be for Sat – Tues travel. However, I have to get approved for the personal days, and I’ve never taken two in a row. I don’t know how that will fly. As soon as things settle somewhat after we go back, I’ll put in for it and should know by the end of September. Therefore, it’s probably best if those who are DEFINITELY going make their arrangements first…so did you make an appt. for a foot massage?

Marcia :: I checked out those pics in addition to the ones on the news – insane! Glad you’re OK. Is your school being used as a shelter? And will this delay the opening?

Susan!!! :: :) Great to see you. Glad you are all enjoying the time with your dad. Wow – you’ve been doing such fun things together. Enjoy the last couple of days together.

Wendy :: *lol* about your resume…I’m off duty and making rampant typos in just about every post, so I would NOT earn a #2 ranking on the list. *lol* I’m sure the res looks great! I saw something on the news last night about Monster getting hacked and information being stolen plus spammers targeting the users, so the reporters advised that you use a PO Box and be careful about personal information you share. Also, to avoid the spam, set up an email address just for this purpose. I’m wishing you lots of luck, though I know you don’t need it. Your career is going to take off! How was the night out with the boys?

Laurie :: CONGRATS on the new wheels AND getting your check! Good riddance to that jerk. It was a good day for you.

Shelly :: ooh, a hot tub! I didn’t realize you’d had one at home – or maybe I’ve forgotten. How nice!!! Great about the Luxor – that would be a good, affordable pick then. I did like being on the end of the Strip away from a lot of the hub-bub.

Yesterday was not quite my day…long story…but I got in a good run and then did NOT do PUB. I’m moving that to Sunday, which works out better, anyway, because I have PH on tap today. So, this way I’ll have a day in between the weight workouts rather than do 'em back-to-back. I do PH so rarely that I honestly can't remember what it's like, but for some reason, I'm thinking it's tough.

Have a great day, all! BBL[/font face]

Morning Cheetah Babes!:)

Cathy: Thanks for the heads up on Monster. Perhaps I will forgo that particular website. I know there are other sites plus I always have the "old way" which is envelopes, stamps and a phone book (or the internet yellow pages!).;) I don't have a PO box and really don't feel like getting one JUST for this. Getting another email addy wouldn't be a big deal though.

So last night was fun. Lots of food, drinks and laughs. DH and I met 2 of the guys on his team for dinner before headeding off to the alley. My dinner was UNFREAKIN' BELIEVABLE!!! I had something called Tortellini Romano...I swear girls, it was better then sex!}( :9 }(

I am more then a bit tired this morning. Didn't get to sleep until almost 1am and was basically up at 6 when DH's alarm went off. *yawn* I am thinking today will DEFINATELY call for a nap. ;)

I have weight work on tap...Barry's BootCamp full body perhaps? Hmmmmm....}(
 
Hey, girl! :)

Glad you had fun last night. Now where is this restaurant? *lol* Don't blame you - I don't think I'd spring for the PO either.

Cathy,

It's called the Harborside Pub and Grill and it's in the Atlantic Highlands. LOL I am sure you will be makin' plans to eat dinner there real soon! ;) Oh, btw, that reminds me! My friend bought up Chickie and Pete's at dinner last night! Apparently there is one in west jersey that him and the other guy had gone to after a concert several weeks ago. He was in awe of the way they serve beer apparently. No metion of the food what-so-ever! LOL He said we all have to go there one time for drinks. }(
 
I'm baggin' up laughin' over here...Interesting way they serve beer? Hmm...wonder if he means the beer tower. Or maybe the football mug: http://www.chickiesandpetes.com/page/page/790062.htm

"Out on the roads there is fitness and self-discovery and the persons we were destined to be." -George
 
Yes, it was the beer tower! He said he went to the bathroom and when he came back there was "a tower of beer" in front of his chair! LOL I can't even imagine....}(
 
He drank that by himself???

[font face="garamond" font color=deeppink size=+2]~Cathy [/font face]http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/4.gif

"Out on the roads there is fitness and self-discovery and the persons we were destined to be." -George
 
Good question! I don't know. He never said....BUT...he DID say that he tossed his cookies that night from drinking too much so I have to believe that yes, he DID drink it by himself! Or atleast MOST of it!:eek: I was lookin' at the website and saw the pic of the football but is there a pic of the tower some where that I missed??
 
Wow. *lol*...No, I didn't see a pic of the tower anywhere, either. You'll just have to go and see for yourself. :) And get the crab fries, crab legs, shrimp and wings while you're there! *lol*

Hmmm....}( .....I just may have to do that!!! LOL I am not a shellfish eater though. I will have to scan the menu for alternate possibilities before I head out there for a meal. I could end up being VERY hungry!:eek:
 
Hey Chatty Cathy and Wendy:), and all you other abfab Cheetahs of course!:) I have an early appointment at work then a few hours in between so I think I'll use my free gym membership today. Some cardio, (whatever machine jumps out at me) and some free weights for upperbody. I refuse to go to the 'Madamoiselle' part for women only, I want to workout where the boys are;-) :7

Take Care
Laurie:)
 
Good morning all! I see that Wendy and Cathy are up early and chatting away:) I thought I'd pop in quick before I took off for my long run. I'm headed out for my favorite back country dirt road,
lots of rolling hills amd beautiful scenery. DH and I go dirtbiking in this area alot. Going for 16 miles.

Cathy- Have fun with PH today. I love digging up workouts I haven't done in ages. All I remember about PH is that the stationary lunge series seems endless!

Wendy- LOL about the dish you had being better than sex! Believe it or not my Mom makes a dessert dish with that name :9 Best of luck to you with the job seeking, resume process. I don't think it will take you long at all to land a suitable position!!!!

Time to get the old bod in gear and move on out. I should be on the road by 0530:)

Good morning cheetahs

Cathy...I think the LV trip is sounding very fun! I hope to know more today. But I know we will most likely leave on Monday as my sister will have to be back at work. Even if some stay Sat-tues we will still have some time together...Thank you, Sadie is one fun little dog! WOW, those football beer mugs make me kinda thirsty! I like PH a lot, something about the music and the way is works with the exercises. The squats do go on forever...

Wendy...good job on your resume. Tortellini Romano....sounds very yummy.

Laurie...Congrats on the car!! And of course getting what is due to you form the Chiro. "Not about the money"....yeah...right!...Enjoy working out with the boys.

Susan...how nice to spend this time with your Dad. Sounds like you all are having a wonderful time. That is [font color=magenta]GREAT[/font] you will make the LV trip!!!! It'll be so fun to see you again...:)

Shelly...I will probably find out more from my sister about the LV trip today as I do her nails...:).. I do believe LV is going to be one awesome trip!!! The heel is doing well and I am going to run today knowing more about the Chi principles and putting them to use. Good luck with your 16 miler today. I think I have had that "Better than Sex" dessert...

Elaine...your DH sounds a lot like mine...at least about the content of his jokes!! he really should have no worries when to comes to us...unless we get too loud...:)

I am doing PUB Back and tri's and a 3-4 mile run.

Have a great day...
 
Hey guys. I only have time for a drive-by post. I'm headed to the school to fill out payroll paperwork! I'M GOING BACK TO WORK! LOL

This morning's workout was PUB, PLB floor, and extra leg work on my weight bench.

Today will be laundry Max, since I'm packing for the Jersey Shore. I'm taking the kids Sunday and Monday to the beach.

Sorry...hit and run as usual.

OH....I'm pretty sure my TM is fixed too! LOL Made one small tiny adjustment this AM and it was pretty smooth! I'll know for sure when I get a full workout into it!

Carole – LOVED the picture of Sadie. She’s adorable! Thanks for your prayers for Danny. I KNOW how you feel about motorcycles. Glad you were able to run! I have my fingers crossed for today’s.

Kristi - your Sadie is adorable, too! I love the photos - how could you resist such a sweet looking dog? When do you hear?

Susan – enjoy your dad! I had a blast when mine was here!

Laurie – enjoy the new wheels! My Mini is a standard and I love it. I usually gear down and break at the same time. I like the extra stopping power. :p Enjoy your workout with the boys! I’m like you, though – don’t want to go to the land of the pink 3 pound dumbbells!

Cathy - Sorry you had a bad day yesterday! Those are horrid. Hope today is much better!

Wendy – Better than sex?! WOW! That must have been some tortellini! Especially with all of those men around! *winks* Glad you had fun!

Shelly – enjoy your run! Sounds absolutely beautiful! What a place to watch the sun rise – eh?

Gayle - you snuck in there on me! How fun to be going back to work at this time! I'm glad you found a job that's perfect for you!

Well it’s BMax 2 Upper x2 for me today. Then it’s off to San Francisco. DD18 had an apartment lined up with these older girls, but they started going flakey – refused to put her on the lease, expected us to pay the ENTIRE security deposit and half the rent (when there were 3 of them), insisting that DD18 who is very social, have no friends over… She had met this guy at the orientation and again yesterday (even her BF approves – the guy is of an alternative sexual persuasion and pretty obvious about it) and they got along fabulously – and he was in the same situation as DD18 (on the short list for the dorm, but with no guarantee of getting one). We found out that there is a 2 bedroom apartment available in the same place and we talked to this guy and his parents (who are very nice) and we’re going to meet up with them at the leasing office today and get an apartment for the two of them. A much better situation and she’s excited about it. So, I’m taking a half day and going down with them.
 
Hey Ladies.

I am posting from my mom's. I am here to pick up Joey but he is watching the Wiggles and my mom is on the phone at the moment.

Shelly: Ooooooh! What kind of dessert is this? You sooo have my curiousity peeked now!}( :9 Enjoy your run!

Laurie: Enjoy using your free gym membership!

Carole: Enjoy your work out. BTW, that puppy pic you posted y'day was adorable!:)

Gayle: I love to hear the excitement in your posts about going back to work. That is fabulous! I hope you are happy with your new job. I wish you all the best with it!

Christine: LMAO over your comment about the meal and the men! Not sure what was more appealing...tortellini dinner or the male company....hmmmmmm...let me think about that one!:p
 
Good morning Cheetahs!

This will need to be a quick post today. I think I will have time later today to come back and catch up on personals. Yesterdays doggie visit went really well. We weren't sure if we were going to make it because an hour away from Cincy we had a flat tire. Chelsea is a great dog, even though her real name is not Chelsea. When she was taken in at the rescue they renamed her because they had another dog with that name. She does not respond well to that name, however they do have her real name in her file which we will be using. She is high energy but after about 20 minutes she settled down. By the time we left she was licking DH, the kids, and I. It was great to see her so happy. We also found out that she is socialized well with other dogs. One day a week she goes to doggie daycare. The next and last test to decide if we will adopt her will be tomorrow when DH takes Sadie up to meet and socialize with Chelsea. If that goes well then we will go back that Thursday to pick her up. That way we will have enough time to get the house ready for her and buy her own dog food bowl, treats, toys, etc.

I'm getting so excited about the LV GTG. I'm 90% certain I will be going. DH wants me to go and have a great time while he stays home with the family. Today I will be emailing my ex-boss to see if we have a hotel trade in Las Vegas, where he works. I might be able to get me a room for free and if that is the case then I will gladly let someone room with me at no cost. I'll let you know what he says.

Today won't be a workout. I need to get my tire fixed during lunch so my workout time has been taken away.

Waves to all cheetahs. BBL!
 
Good morning Cheetahs!

Elaine - Laughing at DH's response to the LV trip. LOL!! I think his request is reasonable. Think you can tame that wild beast of an instructor? :7

Susan - Glad you're enjoying your time with your dad and the girls. How's he doing?

Wendy - Go ahead and get that resume out. You will be great! I understand the hesitation about getting out there though. I'm sure I would be a bundle of nerves. I need to try that dinner you had!:) Do they make deliveries?

Laurie - Glad you enjoyed your 6K. Yay for the car and getting your moolah from the chiro. Big load off!!

Shelly - Good luck with the 16 miles today! It is so hot and dry here. Farmers are really suffering.

Cathy - The foot is fine today. It was probably tired from running and then I dared to put a heel on it. Think it rebelled. Keeping the heels low for the next few days. Hope your day is better today.

Carole - Glad the heel is feeling better. Enjoy PUB and have a good run!

Gayle - I can tell you're excited about getting back into the work force. Glad the TM is up and going.

Christine - Have a safe trip to SF. Hope the apt. situation works out for DD.

Amy - Glad you're having a shorter day today. Enjoy your run.

I did CC #1 for an easy 3 mile run. Didn't do the all out sprints. Did 20 minutes on the elliptical and 20 minutes of yoga. Have some DOMS from yesterday's workouts. Imagine what Grace would have done to me if I had a good visual.

Have a fantastic Friday everyone!

Wendy :: they have fries and pizza and sandwiches and stuff…I don’t think you’d be disappointed. The fries alone are worth it!

Laurie :: enjoy workin’ out with the boys!

Shelly :: ugh! Lunges! *lol* Just what I need. Sounds like a lovely (and long!) run you’ve got planned today. Enjoy.

Carole :: You’re right – as long as someone else is up for Sat – Tues, that might work out fine. I meant to ask, how is John, btw?

Christine :: sounds like a far better set-up for DD. How exciting for her!

Kristi :: so what is Chelsea’s real name? I’m glad the initial visit went well…Well, that would just be awesome for you if the boss can come through. Either way, I am still interested in having a roommate. Sat – Tues is the most likely scenario for me at this point, but I have not had a chance to fish around for other options.

Amy :: enjoy your run.

Jackie :: cracking up over your comments to Wendy. Too funny…I like heels, but I usually cannot wear them to work. I spend too much time on my feet, running around.
