Good Morning Cheetahs!
DMIL is doing better. Your prayers have been helping! Thanks so much everyone! DH is flying down to Bangalore for his business trip for a few days, but he’ll fly back up to see his mom before he goes. He’ll be home mid-next week. I had a nice day with DD15 yesterday. We went out to lunch AND dinner (and I even ate clean!). For dinner we took along her BF. He’s a piece of work, but in a good way. Very much a geek, but he’s a cute kid. Today is a rest day. I don’t really feel I need it, but I’ve been working hard, so I figure it’s good for me. I did AOS Providence and a little of Extreme Kettlebells yesterday.
Carole – Ducks come for a brief swim (they won’t stay around with the dogs around). It’s kind of nice to see them floating around, but I’m glad they don’t stay! Some of those soy subs are as bad as trans fat – they use partially hydrogenated soy oil, and are just nasty. I am enjoying the Quorn. Glad I bought a lot! Glad you had a good run!
Judy – yeah, the dogs scare the ducks pretty well.
They don’t stay very long, just swim a bit. How was the visit to the Grandparents? Spring break already? WOW! That’s early! But I’ll bet it’s nice to have him home.
Thomasina – OH MY! How freaking frustrating! I hope things start to go better for you soon! Good for DH on avoiding the snarky service advisor – and make sure they SHOW you that the rear has been replaced. Sending major good vibes your way!
Wendy – Sometimes we need a day like that. Good job at getting your workout behind you anyway! I’m impressed. It’s so hard to get the butt glue off when you’re feeling like that! I do wear my Lucky’s tight, but not as tight a DSister. But that’s probably because she was 10 pounds up from her low weight when she bought the jeans.
Too funny about a lie that nixed your workout plans! Sorry you couldn’t run!
Wendi – Never fun to lose your entire post! I hate when I do that!
Lorie – You GO GIRL! Show those mere men what a REAL woman can do! And enjoy the eye candy while doing it!
About the cardio vs weights – I think NROLW works for some women, it would not work for me. I do so much better with longer cardio sessions. Plus, I do like distance hiking, cycling and other endurance sports. Why train counter to that? I’ll send you Pinky’s workout – the Low Max with weights that is killer.
Cathy – Welcome back! You were missed this weekend! I’m soo happy you had a great weekend – you needed it! You sound totally refreshed. Great news that the Ski-specific BOSU training has helped. How wonderful for you. I’m glad you and your sis had a great time.
Shelly – Glad work is treating you more kindly. Busy is great, hellacious is not. Oh yeah, another awesome kettlebell workout yesterday. I never knew 6 pounds could make such a difference! I think the ducks – mallards – use our pool on their migration route. We get a pair or two for a few hours every year about this time. Last year they were here on Easter Sunday. Enjoy your tempo run and PP Upper Body!
Kristi – enjoy your run! I’m glad to hear DS is doing well! Sorry to hear DD has the same virus. Hopefully you can get yours sleep today!
Have a great day everyone!
