<><><>clean-tidy-hump-day<><><>

I think I'm getting a chest cold:( I keep trying to cough up phleghm-tmi, I know. Just took some cough syrup and I'm going to have Darrin get me some Mucinex on the way home. Ugh.

Robin, if your son's already taking you to lunch, you will be well taken care of:)

Anne, I say go for it! New place=new start. Think of the possibilities. And we'll all be here to support you the whole way.

Colleen, I hope she's ready too. You can bring a horse to water, but you can't make them drink, right? Glad today won't be crazy at work for you.

Patti, Plyo Legs is my favorite part of STS too:) My mom is on 11 medications!! I cannot imagine the state of her liver. The treadmill she bought after we got ours is a clothing rack-literally. Makes me crazy and very sad to see her this way. When she was younger, she was gorgeous-super fashionable and confident and now she's a shell of her former self. I hope she can heal herself-inside and out.

Kate, you're brave! I've taken all three with me to the salon and it's crazy!
 
Kate: I gotta say that I had a LOL at the mental pic of you getting your brows done while Julia is reaching for everything in sight! :D I realized that Max has figured out how to unlock our doors now so when I came out of the shower this morning he wasn't in the bedroom with me (Mags is at my parents' house) he was in the downstairs bathroom pouring all of the hand soap out. Le sigh.

Klaudia: I hear you on the liver! It makes me nuts b/c the meds give her side effects and other problems so what does she do? Goes to the doctor and get more meds! ARGH! Just DO something so you don't need to take this junk, you know? My mom is a bit older than yours- 64. But she could be a healthy strong 64, not a heavy sickly one. I don't get it.

The greek yogurt isn't sour to me, but I add sweetener of some kind. I am on a plan to reduce (and it's working!) every week the amount of sweetener I use. So far I haven't missed it since I'm doing it gradually. I would think you could just use vanilla yogurt Kate if the greek idea makes you shudder a bit. :)
 
Hmm, Cathe's July rotation is all about the BUTT! LOL. Now I don't know what to do- Jan 09 or this one. The current one is a little short on UB work but I can always add that in somewhere. :) Must go consider...and feed my kid lunch! :p
 
Help Kate my kids are fighting again. Do you have a recipe for Oreo Cookies and creme icecream?

Patti greek yogurt in ice creme maker sounds interesting. I'll make some for myself.

Colleen I like Chalean extreme and I brought it at a discount because there is a more updated workout series that has extra cardio.
 
Busy morning, can I catch up after lunch? I do software support and sometimes some of the people I have to support are incredibly stupid. Ugh.

anne
 
robin, I've never made this recipe but it loooks good!
http://annies-eats.com/2009/05/06/cookies-and-cream-ice-cream/
ive made a cpl of her recipes and they;ve turned out good. good luck! i might make this one today too!:eek:

anne, Im one of those stupid people tech support hates!:p

Klaudia, Having shy-ish kids has its benefits! I can take them pretty much anywhere I go!
Sorry about the chest cold! yuck!

Katie, Is your summer cold all gone?

Patti, EGADS on the soap!! What a mess that mustve been!
I'll have to check out the July rotation....

-
Clean eats thus far! Gotta keep the momentum going! I Put all the muffins in the freezer so I can portion control myself!
 
Why can't these kids play nice?! Someone's always fighting, screaming, shouting, or crying! I'm beat and I still have 5 hours to go! What have I gotten myself into? Is it bad to argue with a 4 year old? Him: I hate peanut butter! Me: Well, my kids hate bologna and ketchup! Everything about him is starting to bug me-his too long fingernails, the way he eats, his whine...I'm on the fast train to Hell, I know. And my husband wants me to spend my weekend with them at their cottage-not looking forward to it at all:(

At least my eats are clean:

b-kashi autumn harvest w/raspberries
l-turkey wrap w/cheese and mustard, sugar snap peas and tomatoes

Working out in a bit-my sanity saver!
 
kluad, i feel your pain. hugs. why does dh want you to go babysit at their cottage?? great eats!

pattie, sorry about the soap. what a mess! i will have to check out the july rotation.

kate, good luck at the salon. no way would i go with my 2 guys. course, that may be why i never go!

anne, catch up later. sorry about the dumb tech people. that is me for sure.

colleen, ihope today stays quiet.

eats are good so far. i got a snacking urge but stopped myself. that should be good for momentum. i also stupidly did b and g stanging leg work after core and my legs are killing me! too much after my run. ah well. hope everyone, including me, naps today.
 
Morris, oh, what I'd give for a nap! Good job on the restraint! I wouldn't be babysitting-they just want us to go up for the holiday weekend-all the men/boys would sleep outside and we girls would be in the 800 sq ft cottage w/no air and really unclean food! Not my idea of a relaxing weekend! I know I should be happy to have such generous friends, but I don't want to go!
 
Ok, B&G is not going to happen since we didn't get home from picnic/swimming until 5 and then I made dinner for everyone. It's a million degrees in my house so I would be miserable doing B&G and instead am going for a run. Wish me luck. B&G will be tomorrow morning.

I'll check back in later with personals. Eats are weird... I'm going to start tracking cals again tomorrow. It's the only way I stay consistent.
 
Okay, I'm back. Run was decent. I'm dreadfully slow but I don't care. I ran about a 10 minute mile according to my nike+ ipod thing. Either way, it got my heart rate up for a bit and that's all I care about.

Klaudia, sorry you're having such a rough day. I could never watch other people's kids. I'd probably go crazy! Hang in there. Hope your wo provides some sanity. And I'm jealous of your mom's food. I would love fresh food delievered to my door! :)

Morris, sorry about the overload on your b&g. :) Hope you get some rest.

Kate, it's good to have you back today. Sorry about all your tech issues! Good job with the muffins in the freezer!

Colleen, I'm glad you're having a quiet day. What is insanity?

Patti, does sts abs have a pilates part? I'm thinking of buying just the abs portion. I'm glad you're enjoying plyo legs. Is there good music?

Lisa, I hope you're having a good day.

Katie, your beach pic on fb made me so jealous. I hope your vacation is fabulous!!

Ok, gotta hop in the shower and de-sweat. Tomorrow will be b&g. I have to say I'm proud of myself for getting in a WO even though I had a crazy day. Usually I would have talked myself out of it one way or another...

Sleep tight everyone!!
Anne, I hope all goes well with the apartment hunting. Do you think you and Jim will be able to remain friends?

Robin, interesting that you got CLX at a discount. Where? Were people complaining about lack of cardio? I never tried slim in six b/c I thought I would get bored too easily. I think this is my biggest issue with bb products.
 
Ugh - it is too quiet. I am enjoying the break but a little something to do would be good. Maybe I should do a training module.

Klaudia, you are lucky to have generous friends but I kwym about the unclean food and the sleeping arrangements. Maybe your cold will prevent you from going.
Angie, Chris would have someone ship an air conditioner if it was hot. He does not survive well in the heat.
Patti, I will have to try your ice cream recipe. I was going to make some last weekend but it seems like so much effort.
Anne, software support is always a challenge. Hope you find some smarter people to support. Insanity is the next beachbody workout. Here is a link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLK28BHJDd8
Kate, ^5 for hiding the muffins in the freezer and the clean eats today.
Nina, I hope everyone naps today. I could use one right now.
Robin, where did you find CLX at a discount?

Oh - I just found something to do - gotta run.
 
Okay, I have to clarify about the stupid people thing--I'm talking about people so dumb they don't understand a simple declarative sentence. I don't mind people who are tech novices, as long as they listen to what I'm saying when I explain things to them! Of course, the people I talk to are the ones who don't read any of the documentation/refuse to listen to anything I say. Oh, well....

anne
 
Okay, a bit quieter, I'll try to get caught up here now.

Colleen, I'm with you--I'd rather be too busy than not have enough to do. It drives me crazy.

Angie, I'm glad you got a good run in! I'm even slower than that, so don't worry about it. I don't know if Jim and I will be friends. Last time we broke up I really wanted that, this time around I'm not sure. I am losing my best friend, but he's been such a crappy one lately that I don't care as much. Or I'm more angry. Or something. I don't know, I guess I just feel really sad and defeated. And disappointed. But, better things must be on the horizon, right?

Klaudia, sorry about the kids! I don't know how you do that, it would drive me crazy for sure. That's a great plan for your mom, will you please plan the next phase of my life? Maybe it will be easier to just let someone else do it. ;)

Morris, did you get a nap? Sorry about the fd--focus on the kids and the things that make you feel good. Going overboard with the leg work, huh? It just makes them stronger, right? Sometimes it takes pain to grow.

Kate, you're not stupid! As I said, I'm talking about people who don't listen, that's what really frustrates me. How are your caterpillars? Did you enjoy your haircut? Is it in GL?

Robin, what fruits and veggies did you get? Have I told you guys I use Door to Door Organics? They deliver fresh fruit and produce. I love it. The shipment came yesterday--I get it every 2 weeks. Now I have bananas, plums, kiwi, carrots, onion, potatoes and they accidentally sent me turnips. I gave those away. I don't know what to do with them.

Patti, I like your thinking--I get to have everything the way *I* want it. Have you decided on a July rotation yet? I just need to run as much as possible between now and August 2nd. I'm so screwed...

Katie, how's the beach today? You're my hero. I never do formal work outs on vacation. I just take the week off. I hope you guys are having fun? Did you go shopping this afternoon?

Hi, Lisa! I hope your baby's fever broke. How are you today?

Okay, I'm taking next Wednesday off to go condo hunting. I found 12 I want to look at. We'll see how it goes. The part of it that does not appeal to me is the whole living in a complex aspect. I really like being in a freestanding house. We shall see, we shall see.

anne
 
Anne, thanks so much for telling us about Door to Door Organics-I just checked and we're in their delivery area and the prices are great for organic produce! I love that there's no commitment, too! Awesome!
 
okay, just signed up on facebook - nina morris. can someone tell me how to "friend" you guys? gosh i am dumb, (even if you say i am not, anne:p")
 
Nina, type my name, Klaudia Galas in the search engine in the upper right corner, click on my name and it'll say add as a friend. I tried to friend you, but there's a million Nina Morris':)
 
Morris: Patti Pickrel is my name- I had the same problem Klaudia did. I have the same pic for my profile as I do here.
 
I think I decided to do FF Get Ready for Summer 09 rotation next month. I will use the circuit days to use my kb's.

Anne, good plan to take a day off to look at condo's.
Nina, welcome to the facebook world. I will look for you tonight - I don't like using fb at work in case I get caught. No one knows what Cathe is so that is okay.

Off to a conference call.
 
Nina I tried to befriend-ed you on FB but there are so many Nina Morris...what state are you from.

Anne I never lived in a complex...always a family house. When I was a kid we lived in 2 or 3 family house.

Angie I brought it on Ebay..but I check the seller out carefully.

I did my circuit workout and had enough time to do 50 kbells swings. I think next week I'm going to add onto the circuit days.
