Clean & Tidy Hello Tuesday

Yesterday posts were funny :D

Anne -where you able to w/o y-day. I hope so.

Colleen -your DH grills outside in the cold? I hate cold weather. In fact it's too cold here in NC (35 degrees :mad:).

Angie -how was hiphop class. Was it oldschool hiphop or the stuff they do today.
In France the refrigerators are small, really? And the women as so thin. Hmmmmm just maybe....


Morris keep up the good eats today.

Klaudia I love Gym Styles and plan to do them around Christmas time.
Which one did you do?

Katie what are you plans today?

Kate how are you feeling? I bet you are thinking about Christmas gifts.
----------------------------------------

Today's w/o PH and extra core
b-oatmeal
l-chicken salad
d-??

Today is my son's b-day. He is a tween 12:( I miss my babyboy.

Y-day eats were great.
 
I did it! I got up early and worked out today! Okay, it was just a Timesaver workout, but it's the first time I've exercised before work in I don't know how long.

I have lots of meetings today, but I'll try to get back to do personals. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

katie mustve been a sleepyhead today!

robin, ph! i love it! so fun! happy bday cameron! it makes me sad to think abut my grls being that age! cant they stay babies forever??

anne, ^5! an AM WO! im jealous. i considered a short one this am, but isabel woke up early. blast it!

never did get to wo y'day - craziness!!! hoping to today....
eats are clean, but isabel wantsto make cupcakes!!!!! fresh cake = 0 willpower!
 
Robin, chicken salad, yummmmmm. Happy birthday to your son, I'm sorry it makes you sad. I don't have PH, but it seems like it would be right up my alley. I like total body weights in an hour (or less). I might have to splurge after the new year.

Kate, make the cupcakes! You only live once and she'll only be 4 1/2 once, right? (Unless I have her age wrong.)

Colleen, we posted at the same time yesterday so I didn't say hi to you--sorry about that! I hope your project at work is getting back on track. Those kinds of things cause me a lot of stress, but exercise helps, doesn't it?

Hi to Angie, Katie, Klaudia, Morris, and all who follow. It's cold here today--19 when I left for work. Brrrrr! I hope it warms up some. We didn't really get fall this year, it went from 70 to 25, didn't it? Okay, I have another meeting in a little while. Talk to you later!

anne
 
Good Morning Everyone!

More work drama with my coworker who went to HR. I have never worked with anyone who was so emotionally unstable. Need to run to a conference call!

BBL!
 
anne, it's colder than a witch's tit out there!:eek: sorry, that was a line from a movie when i was little and it always makes me laugh!:D and you're right - isabel is 4.5. so far we made jello eggs - no tempting me there. but she's not giving up on the cupcakes!:eek:

colleen, blech to troublesome employees. thats the benfit to being self-employed/small business, if you dont like 'em.....FIRE EM!!!!!

julia will be napping soon - wish me luck getting my wo in! i feel bad that isabel has no one to play with while i exercise! mom guilt is the worst!:(
 
mmmm cupcakes.

Colleen is that the same employee from the last time? Some people love drama

Anne you will love Ph/MIS/BM it is worth the money. MIS you can break it down into a 2 or 3 day w/o or a much longer one day w/o. Good going on earlybird workout.

Katie where are you girl?
 
i did my WU and the 1st tri exercise then julia woke up!
feeding her now, try again later for my WO......

hey hey robin!!!!!
 
Hi everyone!

Didn't get my workout in yesterday:( DH came home at 1:00 in the afternoon after being gone all night and went in the basement an hour later to workout! That's usually when I go down. I think I've created a monster! Oh, well. At least he's going to be a fit monster:) After he went back to work, the day got away from me. Eats were good til I attacked what's left of the girls' candy-2 snack packs of m&m's and 3 tootsie rolls!

I'm going back to heavy lifting. Saw an article on www.muscleandfitnesshers.com that suggests ectomorphs (I'm pretty sure that's what I am) should go heavy and lift one body part/day with 3 days of cardio. So that's what I'm going to try. So today is S&H Chest and abs. Let's see how it goes.

Robin, Happy Birthday to your "tween"! It does go by fast. I still can't believe my baby's is 2 years old! Good job on PH!

Anne, awesome job on the workout! You'll be an a.m. exerciser in no time:)

Kate, reading your posts makes me feel guilty. I seldom bake with the girls. Funny somehow I got put in charge of Cookies and Milk with Santa this year at their school-go figure! As for working out with Isabel-Milla used to come downstairs with me and play. Now she gets uniterrupted computer time while I work out-I never hear a peep:) And we're both happy when we're done:)

Colleen, hope your day gets better. My work drama's a bit different-3 melodramatic children. I don't know who's got it worse;)

Hi Katie and Angie:)

b-kashi w/strawberries
s-almonds, apple
l-?

bbl...
 
hi everyone - sounds like some good days here!

i got up and did pub and mm abs; i also swam for an hour. my eyes look like i have been punched - chlorine does not agree with me! lets hope only 2 more days of swimming:):) somehow i doubt it, but i am trying to be positive. ds 1 was weepy this am for daddy but perked up at school. ds 2 is as cuddly and sweet as ever - makes my heart melt. eats are awsome so far:
b - yougart, nuts, fruit
s - dry fiber 1, cheese stick, bananna
l - tofu and veggies and a diet hot chocolate drink

klaudia, what is an ectomorph? how old are your girls? hope your workout was fun.

kate, finn and i made cookies and bread this weekend. it is so fun to cook with them. if i cook it, i am less likely to eat it than if we buy it. and i cannot imagine you with zero will power!

colleen, nothing worse than workplace drama. hope it gets better soon!

anne, good job getting that am wokrout in - i ADORE early am exercise!

robin, happy b-day yto your son. any special plans?

hi katie!

i am off to take the dog out and then to get kids. i want this day to fly by and it is not. but, i will stay on track.
 
klaudia, isabel ended up being happy as a clam swinging on various things on our smith machine while i lifted! she can't wait to do it again tomorrow! yay! oops on the girls' candy! we have a few cookies left but strangely I'm not tempted right now! Good! I got my workout in and brushed my teeth - that oughtta hold me over for a while! Bad weather last night huh? Was Darrin out plowing all night and morning? That's so great that he's so into lifting now! Mike has been doing various body weight exercises in the evenings and I know he sneaks into the bathroom at the office to do pushups! Another monster! haha! Good luck with YOUR heavy lifting! I have a loose rotation in my head for me but...... well, Julia! She's worth it tho! Esp. right now - she's sleeping!!;):D What do you do for the C&Milk? We have a bake sale at preschool next month....can't wait to bake lots of goodies for that!

Morris, How's it going with MIL? Good job not stress eating!! Sorry about DS1. I'm sure its hard on him having daddy gone! You soooo deserrve a massage or somehting special when he gets back! I think I look like a goofball after swimming too. Occasionally my sisters and I would go to water aerobics at the hs pool. Nice to do s'thing different once in a while.

------
Since I got my WO interrupted I finished it up after lunch. Thank you Julia for sleeping!!! I redid the WU for BC and then did bis and tris. Also added on core from KB. Isabel was having a blast on the Smith machine so I took advantage of the extra few minutes. Man, has my core took a beating!!! I'm appalled at the lack of endurance in it! I know, I know...it took 9 months to get that way....but DANG!!! I'm a weakling!!!:eek::p

better go get some things done....have a good afternoon!
 
Got my workout done and a shower:) I think I'm going to like the one part/day rotation. I had gotten away from that kind of training after reading that upper/lower or full body splits were better. It was nice to be done with everything in 40 minutes.

Morris, I'm sorry I forgot to say hi earlier:) An ectomorph is a person who is thin and has a hard time gaining muscle and/or keeping weight on. I'm kina an ecto-can't put muscle on my legs to save my life, but if I work at it, my upper body can get some muscle. I go back and forth between thinking I look scrawny to thinking I look like the "Hulk"! Family telling you to lay of the weights but gain some weight doesn't help! My girls are 9, 6, and 2. Good job on the menu. It's gotta be so tough with MIL there and no DH-I'd go crazy!! Kate's right-make sure and treat yourself to something special when he gets home-you deserve it.

Kate, woo hoo on the workout and the clean teeth-ha! Yeah, Darrin was gone til about 8:30. Out cold by 9:30, then his phone rings! Do these people think he's a robot?! I feel so bad for him. He can't ever catch up on rest in the winter. We decide to keep our Durango-Chrysler offered us a rebate so we can buy it for $13,000. It's only 2 years old with 19,000 miles. Not bad. For C&M we have our "Baker Moms" bake cookies and we provide milk. The kids can have their picture taken with Santa and get "reindeer food" to sprinkle on their lawns. And there's a coloring station and a tattoo station. It's cute. I've just never been in charge of it before. Hope it turns out.

I need to go get ready for Danica's 4th grade concert at school tonight-she even has 2 solos-an intro and a singing bit:)

See you all later:)
 
kl - cant beat a 40-min wo! .......seems like a good price for the durango! good for you guys! i woulda gone for a nissan armada!;):D C&M sounds like fun! good luck to danica! sending her a dozen red cyber-roses to celebrate her singing debut!!:cool:

fams eating dinner (homemade pizza), im nursing julia..... fine w/ me - im not hungry anyway. i had a homemade granola bar at 4 that was pretty filling. ill have a salad later....
 
Hey ladies, sorry for not checking in this am. CRAZINESS with my home and work lives today, but I've kept it clean!! Leftover chili for dinner, then off to bed for the whole family. No tumbling class tonight -- Collin has been soooo bad today, he is being punished (chores and then an early bedtime).
