Happy Easter!

I seem so happy, but I'm in a royal mess. I dont' even want to get into it. DJ stopped by unexpectedly shortly after I got home at 8:30 last night! He's on call, and he got a service call and was on property. That's great and all, but it's a damn good thing I cancelled last night with DG! Unfortuntalely, that doesn't mean I cancelled tonight. And I have no way of doing it, because I don't have DG's number! Why do I feel so guilty???? I did come right out and say to DJ that I hesitate in getting into anything serious, so he knows that, but still, I don't go around seeing other guys just for the heck of it. But maybe I do! Maybe I'm just selfish ....*sigh*...Maybe I just need to not worry about it, but I can't help but think how it would hurt DJ even though it's not like there's some big commitment between us, because there's not! I shouldn't have to worry about surprise visits, and who I have over, but I do! Ok thanks for letting me vent.......

Anyways, I'm going for a short interval run still trying to break in these shoes, and probably do Cardio and Weights Cardio only, and then abs and a stretch. I did Disc whatever yesterday, 70 minutes for Chest/Tri's and Shoulders, and it had the double wave load sets in there, holy moly!! That was hard AND it was a pain in the a**...LOL I def. have DOMS today.....

Belinda- Enjoy your day! That's awesome about you coming to the states! Ok, so you're saying DON'T get ab hits?? LOL Ok got it......I think.... Do you have CTX?? It's the only series I dont' have.

Amelia- That's great that you're taking your niece. I hope you have a wonderful day! What workout did you end up doing yesterday?? I didn't have a choice but to breath last night, with an unexpected visitor...lol Totally threw me off!

Lori- You never came back and posted yesterday.

Deb- I'm wishing you luck on making your own pasta!! I'm sure it will turn out wonderful! If it doesn't don't sweat it! Just do like the Quartermaine's do on General Hospital, order a pizza! So where is the borderline of Upstate NY? What restaurant did you go to? Happy Birthday to your DS.

Helene- Interesting research! I mean, does anyone really know FOR SURE?Work went silky smooth yesterday (as far as co-existing with co-workers), in fact there was a situation in where we needed to team up and deal with it, with a customer who's a usual suspect. LOL sorry to leave everyone hanging yesterday about our night. I'm still laughing about the Big Ass glass of wine! Hope you enjoyed the weather yesterday!

Cookie- We definitely missed you! I'm so sorry to hear the procedure didn't go well (or at all). Is she still in the hospital? Are you able to go and see her this time around? Happy Anniversary! I hope you can enjoy it. Bee pollen is my new best friend.

Good Morning!

We had friends over last night for dinner and they didn't leave until 2 a.m! We sat around and chatted for a while and then all 7 of us piled into the hot tub. It was the first time we had ever really hung out with one of the couples and it was nice to hang out with someone different. She is really sweet, she wouldn't say a bad word about anyone. Sooooo...we were suppose to go over to my SIL's house to look for Easter eggs with her girls but DS seems to be having the major sleep in! One of the girls called at 8 and that phone didn't even wake him up. I am going to be really behind schedule today b/c there are a few things on the go and I need to get my long run started and over with. Another problem is, I'm not hungry and I need to fuel up for a long run

I don't know why I didn't get back here yesterday. I guess I had to much on the go. Or maybe when I had the time my boss was around....oops...manager He started to knit pick yesterday. Asking me things that we do or don't do....apparently things that I shold have always been doing and he brings it up now? And I know why....cause he wants to look good for the new owners. If he starts with that BS he can start looking for a new CSR cause Im not listening to that crap. I have always done my job right and he has never complained so don't start with your foolishness now.

Yesterdays workout was a 8k run and 4DS bic and tris. Today I have another 29 ahead of me and if I feel energetic I may do the 32 kms that is on the scedhule for 2 weeks time, just to get it over with.

Belinda** Enjoy your day, whatever you decide to do!

Iris** I can see how that would stress you out, especially if you like DJ b/c you don't want him to think that you are "that" kind of girl I also don't like unexpected visitors. When I am off of work in the morning, I spend half of the morning going around in my jammies with no bra on so unexpected visitors aren't my cup of tea. But in the meantime, if I were single I probably wouldn't mind. The only people that knock on my door is the mail man when I have a parcel! LOL

I am going to read yesterdays thread to see what I missed!

Forget about the boys!! I just did One-Legged Pikes! Hel* yeah! I feel like punching the air....LOL

Lori- Wow, late night for you! Glad you had a good time! Sometimes "newer" friends are what we need. Maybe I AM that "kind of girl".... No, No no I'm not, I'm just stupid and making self destructive choices as usual... But who cares when you can do a one legged pike?? I feel like I have the world by the you know whats....

Hope you ladies are having a wonderful Holiday!

Good Morning & HAPPY EASTER!

DH went to church and I did BBL High & Tight He goes to church every Sat. night but I only go once in a blue moon He doesn't care, I told him I spent 12 years in Catholic school and that was enough

I decided not to make the shells just the filling which I'm about to get ready now. I'm also making pasta for DH (Helene it's Barilla too!)

Belinda - Enjoy your workout. Are you going to the base for brunch?

Iris - Awesome job doing the one-legged pikes!!!!!!! I'm sure you'll be walking on air today. It would stress me out to worry if the bell would ring and whose behind the door We went to Mt. Fuji in Hillburn, NY which is like stepping out of NJ to NY State Thruway. It's on top of a hill and the view is amazing.

Lori - Amazing that you can do your long run on alittle sleep & drinks . . . but it's a great way to burn off the Easter chocolates

Amelia - Have fun with your niece & kids today

Helene - Another beautiful day. What are you plans?

Cookie - Enjoy the day. Do you have family coming over?

Trish - Have fun today

Don't eat too much chocolate and have a great day

Morning girls,

Quick check in...lots to do today. Glad I got up early and got my wo out in Started FF's STS/GS Leg Rotation and did Disc37 Squat Rack Legs & the extended stretch (was supposed to start with Chest, Shoulder & Tris but slept on my shoulder funny so I had to shuffle the wos around a little bit). It was a good wo, but I'm wondering if I should do my 1RMs over (it's been a year)...wasn't killing myself. I added 5lbs to everything and kept it moving Hopefully I will have DOMs tomorrow. Today is lunch at MILs (awesome southern-style cook...don't know how I'm going to manage my eats today!!) and then bowling with my BFF's family and over to their house for dinner. Her DH is a great cook as well so as much as I don't want to pig out I don't want to be rude either

Belinda - Enjoy brunch with DH and your walk with the dogs!

Iris - Boy, those boys are keeping you busy Since you and DJ aren't serious the only thing will probably get hurt is his ego...which still isn't great. Ever think about telling him (or both) that you're seeing other people?? I've never done it myself, I usually did it on the sly, but if it's bothering you, may not be a bad idea. OMG!!! I'm so envious on your pikes!! I haven't tried to do a one-legged one in a while. Definitely something to work toward.

Lori - Sounds like a nice evening with friends Maybe you'll go out with the other couple more often now Enjoy your wo! Sounds like it's going to be killer!

Deb - How do you like BBL? I'm thinking of ordering, but of course, any high impact is out for me, and I wondered if the band work is similar to Cathe's....how have your results been? I made baked ziti this morning, but it's for dinner tomorrow. I guess we all love pasta!!

Cookie, Amelia & Helene have a great Easter Sunday!

[helened]

Hoppity Hoppity,

Just passing through.
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!

BBL tomorrow

Iris: Good luck this evening

 

[helened]

Evening,

Well it is Easter after all. So in honor of Bunny day, I did Plyo Legs M3W3 (Disc 32). Lot's of hops in this one, and seriously, the one legged squat thrusts are so hard for me. But hop I did 382 calories, I love how the heart rate spikes in those! Also did triceps from M2W4 that I still had left over this week.

With tiny modifications, I am trying to do the April rotation with heavy weights starting tomorrow. I am feeling so strong with STS I love it.

OK, see you all in the morning for personals, still have to bathe the little ones and de-tangle DD's hair which always takes forever

I hope everybody was able to celebrate Easter with family in some way or another. Cookie, I hope you had a nice anniversary and that your mom is doing OK.

Hey Girls!

Busy, busy day but thought it would be easier to check in now then to try and do it in the a.m. I am at my parents house now and the computer isn't in the same room as the tv, where DS and I hang out in the morning while drinking our foffee

Shortly after I checked in DS woke up and thats why I never returned for personals. I didn't even get a chance to read yesterdays thread I took him over to my SIL's house to look for easter eggs, from there I went for my run and as soon as I got home I woofed down some food and was on the road. I think my run today was the best one to date. I didn't stop until I got to the 10 mile mark and that was to take my jacket off b/c it got warm. I think I only stopped 3 x's in total and my pace was a 4:59 kms which I think is a 8 min mile. When I went with my friend the other day our pace was 5:10 and I was wiped by the time I got home. Today I actually did 30 km which is almost 19 miles I think and it took me 2 1/2 hours. The other thing I found was that I wasn't even tired when I got home. Normally, I am tired for the first couple of hours but then I come around again. Not today though.I don't know if I am getting use to the long runs or if I was just having a really good day.

Deb** I hear ya on the church part. I did 18 yrs of church and trust me that was enough! My parents still go faithfully and are heavy into it. Im sure they think we are the worst children ever b/c we don't follow any of what was drilled into our heads! We only have one brother who goes to church.

Trish** So how was your day of eating? I kinda of felt bad b/c I was suppose to go to my SIL's house for brunch and my mom had called the day before to see if I would be out in time for dinner b/c she was going to cook. I didn't make it to either. But while I was running I thought about it and realized that this was my plan for a week...to run my long run. I can't help it if they tried to stop me with their plans Sounds like you had an awesome day!

Helene** I never really had any issues with detangling DD's hair, she doesn't have much curl but I can only imagine how much your little girl must have! LOL I bet they had a great day today!

Ameila** When do you start the new postion? Or did you start already? Hope you enjoy it more!

Iris** I will give you credit for even trying those one legged pikes! I haven't even tried them!

Alright I will bb in the a.m for a quick checkin. Tomorrow is a rest day!

Lori

Iris, I hope the run helped clear your head That double wave loading, isn't a joke! WTG! Looks like you have all Cathe's DVD's, except CTX!
