\\\\\ ---- clean.it.up tuesday ---- /////

Yesterday's eats weren't terrible, but weren't stellar either. Today will be better. I need to probably write down everything I eat.

I am still having a few aches and pains from Sunday's run - I spent most of the day yesterday with an ACE bandage on my right ankle. It feels better, but now there is some *slight* swelling on my left foot (big toe area) so I am icing that. (PS Kate, that "ice ice baby" comment was funny!)

Today would be my normal day to run but I am just not ready - i'll give my body another day. Yesterday I did abs and stretching in the morning, then Collin and I went to the pool in the evening (water jogging with 45# on your back is a pretty good workout!). Today I am going to lift - back/tris/bis and I need to do some more abs.

Lemme think about a meal plan for the day and I will get back to you...
 
Back and tris done, bis and abs tonight. The fam wants breakfast for dinner tonight, but I will modify for myself...

b cereal, skim milk
s hard boiled egg, banana
l big salad
s unsalted nuts, raisins, craisins
d broccoli quiche, a *little* of the bacon and hashbrowns I make for the boys
TONS of water

Have a good one!
 
Good Morning Girls !

Hope you feel better soon Katie !

I slept FANTASTIC last night. Fell asleep the second I shut off the light (actually my book dropped off the bed and woke me, so I must have fallen asleep reading !) , then slept all nighttttttttttttttttt until 5 min. before the alarm was set to go off !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A FULL EIGHT HOURS!!!!!!!!!!
So wonderful and appreciated . I feel SO much better today !!

Heading off to my little gym to knock out STS Legs !!!

bbl.......

Morning!

No workout yesterday, but I did manage to clean all 3 bathrooms and change the girls' beds! I'm in a bit of a panic-there were 44 kids out at our elementary school yesterday! Don't know if it's H1N1 or just the typical stuff but it does have me worried. Lots of hand washing and sanitizer around here! Not sure of my workout today-some kind of upper body and maybe a short cardio? I'll decide when I go downstairs. Heading to the dentist is a bit to fix my filling-yuck.

Katie, I think it's a good idea to rest up-cross training is good! I made up for my light dinner with a bowl of Edy's Loaded Cookie Dough ice cream:eek: so don't feel too bad. Your menu looks great today.

Robin, hope you have a drama free day!

Becky, glad you got some rest.

Nina, YOU sound peaceful:) I love sore abs! Have fun with your boys:)

Off to have some oatmeal...
 
More oatmeal, Klaudia? Where's my breakfast burrito? Just kidding! Do you have pics from the wedding? I need to see those shoes! They sound fantastic.

Becky, I'm so glad you slept well last night. What's on tap for you today?

Nina, great run! Can you take the dog with you every time? I read your earlier post, so please be extra careful.

Katie, good idea to rest up a little more. When is your race, next month, right? How long will you be in OBX?

Robin, no work drama? I don't know what that would look like. :p My workplace is full of drama these days. Boo hiss to that, I say.

Angie, safe travels! I hope your trip goes well.

Happy birthday, Wendy! Sorry you were sick, are you feeling better today?

Hi Lisa and Colleen! Who did I miss?

I was very tired yesterday, so I stayed in bed and didn't go to work until 1. There wasn't very much going on, I probably should have taken the whole day off. Oh, well, live and learn, right? It should be quiet here today, though, the two bosses are gone and two of my teammates are off. I need to get caught up on stuff, though. That's my goal for today. But I get to leave early, as I'm getting my hair cut tonight. I love going to the salon, so I'm looking forward to it. bbiab

Good Morning Everyone!

I got my workout in last night and I am finally caught up with my rotation. Today was STS Disc 3 Legs. I hope I can get up from desk later because my legs are fried. I really like this rotation because it really mixes it up. Allergies are still bothering me but I am not as tired as yesterday. I took lots of drugs so that I could sleep.

Angie, have a great trip! Are the girls excited?
Robin, everyday is a drama day at my office.
Katie, sorry about your ankle and toe. Rest up because you are going to need it.
Nina, good idea to take the dog with you running. I am hoping I am ready to get back to running by the end of the week. My stomach is still a little off so I want to make sure I am 100%.
Becky, ^5 on sleeping through the night. Doesn't it feel great?
Anne, I rarely go into work midday because I never catch up. I need my morning time to get settled.
Kate, ^5 on getting your workout done last night. Are you feeling better today?
Klaudia, I hope your girls stay healthy. It is rampant in the schools here. Some of the private schools are closing and disinfecting but the public schools are staying open.
Wendy, I hope you are feeling better.
Lisa, it is too cold here to think about a baby walking around in a diaper only. Glad you got a little break yesterady.
 
happy trails, angie!!!!! ya must be soooooo excited =)

kate, hope the boob is better and >>5 on wo anyway! didnt you have a bday coming up, too? did i miss it.

katie, sorry you are hurting, im so afraid of running for that reason... hope it passes quickly! menu looks good.

lisa, diaper and robeez, too cute =)

anne, yay for the salon! i hrt getting in there myself... need an appt, thanks for reminding me =)

klaudia, pics, please! i wanna see those shoes! 3 bathrooms?? donno what i would do, lol! ive never had more than 1.... well as a kid, 1 big old house we lived in had a random toilet in the cellar, does that count? i was scared of it. weve got lots of flu around here too and i worry abt ods bringing it home cuz teens are so not careful about germs.

becky, yay for a good nights sleep!!

nina, wtg on an "easy" 11 miles... i cant even imagine!

robin, hoping for no work drama for you today!

drinking my coffee right now, no idea whats to eat today. pulled chicken from freezer so something with that!

MUST wo today if it kills me. we are still sick, really wanted to get back to gym today but def cant bring JJ in there with boogies everywhere. so i need to pull out something with no dread factor (and no complicated choreo so i dont hurt myself, lol). sansones actually have some dread for me cuz theyre so dang boring, but thats prob what i need right now. also got lotee berk method from the lib--new vids have no dread factor cuz you've never seen it, teehee!
 
Hey Ladies! I am doing SO MUCH BETTER today! (thanks, NIna!) I got about zero done yesterday so I really need today to catch up. Eats will be clean and we are ready to rock some Insanity tonight. I'll try to bbl for personals, but my Magic 8 ball says "looks grim"!:p
 
KATE! That's who I missed. Sorry! And I'm glad you're feeling better. I think I was traumatized by your clogged milk duct story. That sounds horrible.

anne
 
Kate, glad you are feeling better ! I know what you mean about having so much to do after missing a day !

I have an apple pie in the oven and baked a cherry pie before that ! I also have soup in the crockpot !
I worked like mad all morning and now I'm ready to take a break .

My legs are fried from this morning's workout too, Colleen. And I agree about the rotation.......it mixes it all up and I'm loving it !!!

Becky
 
wow, becky! what kind of soup? i am loving my lentil soup a la klaudia.

anne, staying in bed until 1 sounds heavenly. who am i kdding? i'd last until 7:p enjoy your day.

colleen, glad you are on the mend.

kate, yea for feeling better.

wendy, i hope it is just a cold on your end and nothing worse. sorry for missing the gym

klaudia, hope the dentist is gentle!

picnic was fun. i am glad dh works closer to home - now we can visit him on our daays off! very short nap for aidan, no nap for finn. sigh. did gs timesavers. i think i will pick up a full gs rottion next week. i have missed those wos. dinner out tonight. it will be clean and tidy. i kind of overdid it at lunch, but on healthy clean stuff - thank goodness for having very little food in the house! i wanted choc so so bad, settled for some dates and pb. i bought halloween candy earlier and bought only the stuff i hate - lollipops:cool:
 
back from a nice 2 miles. it was great having dh home this morning because he pushed me to get off my behind even tho i feel like dirt. and once we were out i was so glad! great walk with baby, stopped for coffee, and then made it to the library for music! i thought i missed it yesterday but it was actually today. so nice to be out. now that im back on the couch the head pressure hits me again,,, isnt it funny how that works? but it was nice to feel "alive" and i definitely can push myself for a workout once this boy gets down for a nap.

nina, picnic sounds nice!

becky, i made a quick appe cake last night for ods to bring to his xc dinner but other than that i have been out of baking mode for days... pie sounds like a great idea! and what kind of soup do you have going?
