:::: CHEETAHS :::: hump day pump!

YAY! Yes, the broccoli, sauce and tofu are deeeelicious! And I have tried to recreate at home and you're right, the tofu is not as good.

I also find a certain tofu is better than others for home cooking. If using in a recipe, I like to get a chunk of Nigari tofu made by the Sacramento Tofu company. I think White Wave is another that isn't too shabby...;)
 
Im soooo slack'in on the personnals!!! I have to catch up!

Todays workout was scrammbled eggs and GS chest and Tri timesaver. I wanted to do the other GS's but didn't have the time. So much for a new rotation! LOL Atleast I knew today was UB. I would like to finish the rest of the UB's tomorrow but we will see what happens!

Wendy** Glad to hear you are sore! LOL Good job on the workout today. I can't make up stuff like that, I get bored. I need someone to tell me what to do...like Cathe:+ My mom is sitting right now actually, knitting a stocking...she is waiting for my dad to come back and babysit so we can go to the mall.

Judy** I haven't got a thing wrapped and i don't feel like wrapping anything until I have mostly everything! I still have a few thinsg to get yet!Nice workout!

Wendi** Yes, I do know cleanmax is a workout but why doesn't it feel like it?;)

Christine** sounds like you had a good meal last night and its hard to watch your portions when your enjoying your food:9 Hope you enjoyed your rest day!!!

Carole** Hope you had a good workout. I will probably eat a little bit of moose...maybe in soup but thats about it. I think I could easily become a vegetarian when I think about what I am eating.

Shelly** 8 days off!!! Im so jealous!! DS's name is Rylan. I wanted to call him daniel but DH said he would be called danielle! Every name I picked he had something to say about it.

Jackie** My mom is just here for the night. Nice workout!

Sunny** Sounds like your having a busy day!

Susan** Im not anal but there are certain things that bother me, like spots on my floors and smudges on my counter top. After spot cleaning so many times I have to get the bucket out and start cleaning!!!

Thomasina** I think this is the first time Ive seen/chatted with you since joining the group? I feel better now that the house work is done! You must have had a good time last night with DS? What fun!!!

Lorie** Nice workout!!! Did you decide to go to vegas after??

Alright...time to get DS some cereal and get him ready for bed. I have no time to check for spelling mistakes!!

Lori :: *lol* about the “poor moosie.” Re: PM workouts…I am, for the most part, acclimated to them, but some days I do lose my steam if I wait too long. Depends a lot on what kind of day I’ve had, too.

Judy :: big congrats to DD on her induction!…Mmm, Chang’s is a favorite. Just ate there with BF on Saturday…Also like the edible arrangements—that’s a nice, healthy choice.

Wendy :: firewalkers with the silver! Nice! Great w/out…Yeah, the U/A ain’t cheap, but it *is* absolutely worth it, IMO.

Wendi :: well, I lost the battle…but perhaps I’ll win the war. I’ll remain hopeful…and I do feel good knowing that I have the support of my colleagues, many parents, family, and friends…hope you feel better this evening!

Christine :: *lol* poor Jimmy and the sprinkler mishap!…Sounds like perhaps you can put the putty hammer in storage for a bit. :) Hope you enjoyed your hard-earned rest day!

Carole :: I think having to put a pet down is one of the hardest things to have to do…I’m glad she is finding some comfort in the fact that he’s no longer suffering…that is the only consolation in having to make a decision like that. Which 20 min. iClimb did you do?

Shelly :: woohoo! 8 days off! Life is good…How’s the pursuit of your PT cert going?…*lol* Yeah, Rodney is on the mellow side. I do like him, though. I am waiting for someone like Hugh Jackman (or maybe our Joeybear from BBC) to put out a Naked Yoga DVD. }( In that case, I could see myself fitting in yoga practice every day. :) Re: the BOE, see my post to Wendi above. Bummer, but I will keep fighting the good fight.

Jackie :: sounds like the u/b’s been getting fried…I’ll have to look into the Staehle w/outs. I only have one of hers, and in all candor, I don’t use it much.

Susan :: chocolate popcorn?? Never tried it, but it sounds yummy…I actually didn’t have off today – I worked outside of the classroom…I do like 4DS Legs…it has grown on me, but I don’t find it to be the toughest of Cathe’s.

Thomasina :: I know that end-of-day-fizzle feeling…I didn’t let myself relax too long after work today – dove right into it. Sending you strong, high-energy vibes!!! Cool on the VH concert…I wanted to see them when I was younger, but then they broke up, so I wound up seeing DLR by himself. *lol* That was my first concert… *lol* Sorry if I’m blabbering on about the BOSU too much. I am pleasantly surprised with it – it's something that never held much appeal for me and was basically an expensive impulse purchase. I figured I’d return it if I didn’t like it, but that's definitely not happening.

Hi Sunny!

I did 4DS Legs & Core (incorporating the BOSU where possible) followed with 40 min. steady-state on the EXT.

Off to get showered.

Sunny: I will probably apply to the YMCA that's a few towns away from me when I get back to sending out resumes. This YMCA is not the one BF and her friend are going to though. They are going back in my home town about 30 minutes from me. Thanks for the suggestion!:)

Thomasina: You are probably quite right about my legs but I wasn't sore and took a full rest day in between so as far as I was concerned I was good to go. Oh well. I will wait a little longer to punish the lower body after a long race next wether I'm sore or not!;) So you are doing a B&G premix today, ey? Sounds like you'll be in DOMS heaven tmrw just like Christine and I are today! Don't ya just LOVE it!? }(

Lori: Making up mish-moshes bores you but doing that kind of stuff keeps things fresh for me. Even with all of the work out choices I have, I am constantly looking to do something different. I'm like a child with a very short attention span!:p Don't even fret about your shorter work out today. You kicked butt as far as I'm concerned! Have fun at the mall!:)

Cathy: Kewl. If I get any Christmas cash, it's going toward my first U/A purchase!}( Great work out today, btw!

Judy: Had to laugh at your post about taking on "Wendy-like" characteristics. :7

Lorie: Nice cardio work out there girl! So will you be doing classical stretch? I have that website saved. One of these days I will probably give in to it's call...}(

Okay, I think I'm all caught up again.

BBL!:)
 
Hey everyone! Home from work, dinner done, clothes for work tomorrow ..ironed...and now I am almost ready for bed.

Cathy - Good workout! Did you use to Bosu for the step ups on Legs? Sounds like you really like your EXT!

Christine - I was over at Amy's site last night and saw where you had posted! I started to wave "hi!!" My screen name most places is "bolieikl". So if some stranger "waves hi" with that weird screename....it's me:+ The puppy was gorgeous!! Did you find out what that man did with your husband? ;-) That is so cool that he wanted to get you that and brought it up himself!

Judy - Glad you enjoyed the intense spin class the other night! Every now and then I have "Wendy" characteristics show up, too! Good job on the workout! That is super great about your DD! Congratulations to her!

Wendy - Sorry you had such a rough day at work yesterday! Also...sorry about the painful legs! You shouldn't feel bad about having to cancel! You are always there, waiting for everyone else! You had a very legitimate reason!

Lorie - That was a great cardio sweatfest that you had this morning! Good job!

Sunny - HOpe you had a good day! Good workout today and yesterday!

Shelly - Eight days off! You lucky girl! Hope you enjoyed your run! Did it ever warm up?

Jackie - Good workout! SloMo is such a killer on my upper body! I love it! I love alternating weeks of 4DS and SloMo!

Thomasina - Sorry you are tired from last night! I know it is hard to stay motivated to workout after work, but if ya come straight in and "just do it", it feels pretty good! I love Van Halen!

Wendi - I agree, you need to be careful if you feel something in your chest!

Carole - I loved the running gear you ordered! I am sure it will look great in the color that you ordered! I am glad your DS is doing okay. Hope you enjoyed your workout!

LOri - Great job on Scrambled eggs and the Timesaver GS! I need to use those premixed more often! I really think GS's are my favorites out of any weight workout! I love them! Aww! Enjoy your time with your little one!

Susan - Good job on the Christmas shopping! LOL...I come home with something for me a lot, too! Enjoy the BM2 premix! Oh...and the chocolate popcorn, too! }( Yummy!

Yesterday's workout was a 7 mile run and 4DS Legs and Core. This morning's was a 5.5 mile run and 4DS B&T's and the core from HSC.

Hi to anyone I may have missed! Hope everyone has a great night!

Linda
 
Hi Linda - I know I'm "older" now and listen to a huge variety of music but I just really love Van Halen...still. I mostly listen to VH for running - lots on the ipod!

Cathy - David lee Roth proved to be pretty limber still last night but his vocals have changed a bit as I think he's had some vocal chord surgery and can't get the high notes anymore. I also liked VH when Sammy was the lead singer (saw them in concert too in 1991?) but no matter the singer, Eddie is Eddie and Alex is Alex - them boys STILL can jam like no other which proves age can only improve us! :p

K folks, I'm off work in a few and I plan to just march in, change my clothes and get started with the treadmill cardio and then I'll do the B&G premix depending on if DH is in bed yet or not. The treadmill is currently in the living room and my DVD's, step etc are in the bedroom and furniture has to be rearranged to workout. I can't wait for my "garage" to be complete so I don't have to mess with the shuffling!

Have a good one ya'll!

Thomasina :7
