Good Morning Cathletes

I never had a chance to pop in yesterday,but i did get in BM2 step combo's. I went to walmart and something told me to look at my tire, and sure enough...it was hissing. I quickly drove it over to there automotive shop and was able to get a tire put on(an expense we weren't expecting,sigh). I tell ya girls, the last four days have been nothing but one pain in the a$$ after another Were dealing with it...thats all we can do, right?

I got some christmas cards yesterday and i felt better,hugs to everyone

So anyways, today im doing a CC and some upper body work,probably BM2. Ialso want to do some of that core work..lets see what i can fit in with dh and the kids home

Belinda-Its so nice for you to have your DD with you during the holidays...Have a great workout today!

Hey to everyone..bbl

Hey there, remember me? Sorry for not checking in, I've been bad. Overworked and overeating going together.
Belinda, sons! Trust me, I have empathy. One of mine is moving to Mexico Jan 3 for spring semester, and he hasn't even applied for his visa yet! Yep. Tomorrow he says he's driving to NYC to get it. Aren't they having a blizzard today? He is so not me in this regard. Another one will be home for the first Christmas in four years. Fab on the compliments and congrats on the wt loss. I need to get inspired. Feel like I have back flab cells multiplying as I type.
Amelia, sorry you were ill. Just was reminded of Emily Blount in Devil Wears Prada - just one stomach bug away from goal. How was the b'day party and pizza? How much snow do you have? Love your card - thanks. Are you set for the holiday?
Lori, how did the mtg go with the new boss? As the Who said - same as the old boss? Cookies in the dining room, closets, cabinets, all over. At least some are leaving shortly for a fundraising cookie exchange. Wish I could develop an allergy to them. Perhaps I should look into hypnosis to convince me I am. What penguin game are you getting ds?
Iris, what are you doing with all of your cookies? Do you eat a lot of them also? I should only make kinds I don't like, but unfortunately the ones my family likes I do also. Glad you got scs - I get mine on Monday according to UPS. I need it to burn off cookie cals. How's your mom doing?
Helene, almost time for your trip! How was your yoga class yesterday? Was it hard to leave the house for that time of the morning on a nonwork day?
Deb, your sons are handsome. Love Simba and the accessories. Hope things are work calm down for you after next week. Do you think they will? Listening to the radio, sounds like you're getting pounded with the snow. How much do you have? Drive careful, and only go out if you have to - okay? Oh, and sorry to hear about your hot water heater. Hope you can get a plumber quick.
Trish, got your Christmas card. I used to work at 30 Rock years and years ago. Do you work near there? What plans do you have for the holiday?
Have to get 12 dozen cookies out of here for a fundraiser, drop dd off at a mall to meet a friend, and then dh and I have a date to Christmas shop.

Good Morning

I guess its really afternoon now I had a couple of busy days this weekend. I would get up in the morning with the intention to check in but once I start doing things around the house, I can't seem to find the time to sit down and check in.

I had baby group brunch here yesterday morning so on Fri all I did was clean and I made a few dishes. Yesterday was the brunch and the day flew by, it was crazy! Last night we had DH's work party so I had waaaay to much to drink! We went to the same restaurant we went to last year and the bartender makes up her own recipes for drinks. She made me a drink that knocked me right on my a$$. It was so strong and I was feeling no pain at dinner! Of course I just sat there quietly and didn't make a moron out of myself Then we continued on and I think I had atleast 4 shooters and 3 coolers. We went to Mcd's on the way home (which was 4 o'clock) and I took 2 pills before I went to bed. I still woke up with a sllight headache but I will be o.k. Im not sick...we also danced ALOT. My feet were killing me b/c of course, I had to wear new shoes! LOL Anyway, thats it for outtings! Thanks be to God! Nothing else until Christmas eve and thats just a family thing, nothing crazy. Yippee!

I have a few gifts I need to get for christmas. I would like to go do that today and get it over with but I probably won't! Ugh! I also need to stock up on groceries. I don't know if we will do that today or save it for Wed or Thurs.

So the new owners came in on Thurs and they seem o.k. I didn't really talk to them. Just kind of tended on them like I was a waiter The old man is in his 70's and he is the boss....in all sense of the word. Has much as his son is his right hand man, he still makes the call. I think they will be o.k to work for/with. We probably won't see them much.

Even though its been crazy I have still gotten my workouts in, besides for yesterday. I did over 7 miles on Thurs and 7 miles on Fri plus PH. Im not sure what I will do today but it will be something and it will probably be soon b/c my hair is like i stuck my finger in a socket so the faster i can get that washed and dried the better

Belinda** Im guessing you are happy that DD is home Yeah, boys do silly things for girls! He may regret not coming home later....or maybe not. Hope you get your workout in.

Ameila** Sorry to hear you have been having some issues lately. It seems like whenever I turn around DD's needs money for something. Just after Christmas we have to pay another payment on her Quebec trip. Not easy just before and after Christmas.

Cookie** I could use a cookie right now actually! Feeling a little cookieish! But i always am. I have tons of cookies here as well.

Alright, I may be back later. If not, I will be here tomorrow morning.

Lori

Hallo ladies,

Good afternoon girls,

Lots of snow but it turns out we only had about 6 - 8 inches. My BIL came and plowed our driveway, so happy! Also paying my son to take the snow off the cars and do the walkway. I only did the deck but believe it or not feel achy Today I'm going to do Push Circuit 1 (CLX).

I need to wrap gifts . . . don't even have one wrapped yet I'm praying a plumber calls me tomorrow it sucks not having hot water We need to shower at my in-laws, told DH we could shower together, he said that wouldn't be right I meant they have 4 showers we could each use one

Belinda - How exciting your DD is home for the holidays Does she go to the gym with you?

Amelia - I agree this is so not the time of year for stuff to go wrong I hope you can get CC in today

Cookie - NYC was hit hard 12 inches which is actually rare for them. Poor Simba I always put something on her for the pictures. I could just imagine that she is thinking.

Lori - Looks like you been partying . . . I would still be in bed if I were you Great job with getting in your runs

Hi Iris, Helene & Trish - Did you guys get snow too?

Have a great day everyone

Afternoon,

I see the board is a bit busier today. Where did everyone find the time?! Anybody care to help me. So much to do before Xmas and the trip. At least we didn't get pounded with snow up here.

Did Imax 2. 515 calories. Didn't feel like that much. I am always surprised with that one because I always feel like there are so many breaks. But when you are not on break watch out so I guess that's where the calorie burn comes.

Should be getting Shock cardio tomorrow or the next day I hope. (I did USPS so I don't know when I'll get it).

BBL for personals.

Workout done, did ccv4 then bm2 upper body..it felt great to get it in. My arms were shaking, a feeling i haven't felt in a long time.

My weight is holding steady at my lowest so far...im very proud that i haven't gained any back. Im drinking alot of water everyday and staying AWAY from the sweets(ok..had one cream drop) thats were i get in trouble, the sweets. I might as well get rid of that december ticker

Cookie-We never did get any snow here. LOL at that Devils Wear's Prada quote...love that movie. Great job with your workout. enjoy your christmas shopping later..sounds fun. DD's party went great, she had fun playing in the game room afterwards..funny how kids get so excited about the tickets that come out of the machine and then they get even more excited when they go to cash them in and pick out there toys(kinda like chucky cheese)

Belinda-Enjoy your rest day and time with your DD.

Lori-Great job getting in your runs and weight work. Im glad your new boss is tolerable, i missed what happened to your old boss? He must of sold out huh?

Helened-Good job with imax2 and awesome calorie burn. I need to start wearing my HRM agian...i put it up for a while,think its time to pull it out agian.

Trish-How is your day coming along? How is the christmas shopping going?

Iris-Are you working a dble this weekend? I hope it isn't too long...what workouts have you been doing lately?

Well,thats it for me. Everyone have a great night!
