Morning ladies,

I'd better get my butt in gear. I have nothing ready. Hope I'll remember everything!

Belinda: Good morning. You're here and still starting us off! Only two more days until I can try my German on you. Enjoy your leg workout.

Cookie: Do you know how in awe I am of you and your schedule? Incredible. I hope the weekend will be a treat for you. And that the evening in Baltimore was nice.

Deb: ^5 on getting a spin bike. Sorry about younger DS. Enjoy the beach.

Kristin: I can't remember the weights in HR either . I like it but I'm one of the ones who likes STS TB more. Good idea about captain America. I'll have to take Nicolas.

Amelia: How is your schedule lately? Have you been able to spend time with your DH?

Trish: Hope work doesn't make you stay late this week.

Iris: Why you leave us like that Hope you are doing OK.

Lori: I hope you feel OK. We missed your stories so. When was the last time you looked at any lulu?

Melissa: So how were those first hospital hours? I'm sure you'll have stories from there as well. Can't wait.

OK, I guess I'll drag myself downstairs and do something that involved movement. Dragging a bit I am so tired. It's a busy week for me at work. I was worried I was just going to sleep at the RT but I bet there will be so much energy I will forget all about being tired.

Question for those who have already gone. For showers at Cathe's gym, do they give you big towels or do we bring our own.

Thanks a bunch.

Good morning! Yesterday was crazy: school then the internship at the hospital and then 4 hours of homework 15 days til the end of the semester lol. I really like the PT dept in the hospital though; everyone is SO nice and helpful and they are really trying to give me everything they can out of this experience. Yesterday one of the PTs showed me how to read blood pressure.

Last night I did Intensity's step/bootcamp/HIIT premix. Today I have MIS on tap.

Now for the b!tching and complaining (you knew it was coming )...DA has been driving me up a freakin wall!!! He doesn't seem to understand that just because he has downtime, it doesn't mean I do. He's acting like I'll be gone for a decade with the RT and goes "We need to spend as much time as we can together." Um, really?! Then yesterday he's like "Tomorrow we should get together during the day.' Ok WHEN dude?! I dunno, it just seems like he's only thinking about what he has to do and like he's not respecting my responsibilities, if that makes sense? Or maybe I'm reading too far into it? I dunno. I just can't wait for the RT to relax!!!!

Belinda, congrats on getting the closing done! That is great news

Helene, you are rocking your WOs! I hear ya on the stress. I was going to take a rest day last night but I needed to get all my pent-up energy out; so glad I worked out cuz I slept like a baby.

Kristin, KM is a hard but awesome one! Nice job. Have fun with HR today.

Deb, have fun at the beach today. Sorry to hear about your son's gf But 30 min away, really? That's not far at all.

Cookie, I missed something...what are you studying for? You will be able to keep up, don't you worry

Have a great day girls!!

Just saying .... SM done

Morning, got one cup of coffee in me so im good to chat now

News Flash:::::I'M OFF TODAY:::::::

My last day off was last Friday and that was my only day off last week so being off right now is ggggggreat!

I also wanted to wish everyone a safe trip on the RT and take plenty of pics for me, ok. Sounds like so much fun...what a nice little getaway

Yesterday I did about 35minutes of stepblast, fun-fun-fun. The music in that workout is just AWESOME!

I'm frustrated with my shoulder right now, well actually both of them aren't 100%. They're tender on the very top, guess I lifted to heavy the other day with CLX/BC1

Melissa-So glad your enjoying school and your internship! And your workouts are WOW!!!!
Yep, sounds like your bf is kinda smothering you right nowo) maybe sit down and talk to him about it, but on the flip side it sounds like he's crazy about you too.

Helene-Great job with SM. Im dragging this morning too...hoping coffee with fix that. I can't wait to hear about the RT from you guys!

Hello to everyone that follows If I decide to workout today I will bbl...

Hi everyone! Getting down to the wire here! Today I did HR. I love, love, love, LOVE it (Belinda- you were right)! I cannot believe I waited this long to get it. The music is awesome on it. For me the music is always a bif factor. If I cannot get into the music, it is so much harder to stay motivated to push. My arms feel like they are going to fall off. I also found the weights that Cathe uses on the barbell from one the Ask Cathe threads. I tried to match her, or do 5 #s lighter here and there . I have not even begun to pack for the RT. Guess that will be my focus tonight, lol.

Cookie- I just got the book Room. I cannot wait to start it. I am halfway through Ravitch's book and then I am going to start reading it. The Glass Castle was one of the best book's I ever read. Have you ever read it? My husband wants me to download books on my Ipad, but I just like holding real books. . . you know? Do you have a kindle?

Amelia- enjoy your day off, you deserve it!

Helene- nice job on SM Oh, now I might have to get STS TB too.

Melissa- I agree with what Amelia said. He sounds like he is head over heals for you. My DH called me five times a day when we were dating. If I had to study or write a paper and told him I couldn't see him, he would surprise me with ice cream or a coffee and hang out for a few minutes. I would sometimes find this annoying, but my mom always told me "It is because he HAD to see you and he loves you so much," lol. Fourteen years later, I think he might be happy I am going to be gone for a whole weekend, lol.

Belinda- Are you meeting DD tomorrow and then heading to NJ together? I am jealous that you are going the night before. I should have planned that!

Hello to everyone who follows.

Kristin

Not a great day after all. I am eating cherries (and boy are they good for comfort). Had a minor fender bender at lunch. Nothing much but enough to get under my skin right now.

Kristin: LOL, do you like HR? Not sure how you felt about it

Amelia: Woohoo on the day off.

Melissa: Yep, he is sweet on you. cool beans. Can you find something that he could do for you that would be quick and make him feel good? Like you're dying for a frappuccino but don't have time to get one and maybe he could help out. But of course you don't want to impose because you can't spend more than a minute with him.

So, I just logged in to say that I am positively drooling over the cardio supersets posts over on the blog. OMG, I want that workout. NOW! Good I pre-ordered way back when. LOL

Hey girls,

I did my D6 legs around 4 pm, late for me. Had trouble with skype today, wouldn't connect for some reason

I used my weighted vest, loved it! Glad I bought it! Still need to pack for tomorrow can't decite what to bring? I only have some much cloth.

Kirstin - knew you would like HR, so much fun! WTG, today. Yeah, that UB will burn.


BBL for more personals!

Hi,

The beach was fun & so was people watching especially in Jersey I think everyone took the day off, can't even imagine what the weekends are like. Could have done without the traffic.

No workout today, my rest day was planned for tomorrow so not sure what I will do

Belinda - Have a safe trip, can't wait to meet you & your daughter

Helene - Sorry about the fender bender I ate cherries on the beach today I need to pack tomorrow otherwise I will be running around on Friday morn.

Melissa - It's great that the pt at the hospital is working out. Hmm, on relaxing at the RT . . . is that what you call it

Amelia - I hope you enjoyed your day off Wish we were able to meet you too

Kristin - I have had Glass Castle on my wish list, will have to buy it. I love the kindle . . . my biggest complaint at 1st was not knowing what page I was on, it is done by % of the book read, but I'm getting use to it.

Iris - I hope your still considering meeting us, even if you can't come back for check-ins.

Cookie - Your plate is full, glad you were able to get a bit of downtime. Don't worry not sure where I'm going to get my energy from either.

Trish - When are you leaving, are you taking the turnpike?

Lori - I hope your having fun

Goodnight

Deb- just reading over today's posts and realized I skipped you I'm sorry the natives were waking up when I was typing before. How was DS today? First love is hard to get over. The Glass Castle is such an incredible story. I read it in three sittings and I swear if I didn't have the little ones, I would have read the whole thing on one shot. I am still thinking about it lol. She wrote another book about her grandmother that I want to read now. See you in two days. . . well, one day now
