Morning girls

Wanted to say thank you for your comments yesterday, they make me feel so much better this morning:)

DH and I had a nasty fight last night:( I feel bad but im standing my ground. Here's the deal: His mom was sent home from the hospital thanksgiving, meanwhile my job is crazy hours, his job is crazy hours and he hasn't been able to go by and see her since she came home. Well his father called him yesterday and basically made him feel guilty about not see her so he goes to see her yesterday and is gone for about 2hours. Meanwhile i haven't seen DH more than 10minutes in over a week and im going to be honest, it hurt my feelings. He's off today and tomorrow and he can go see her anytime during the day, why on my only day off?:( After he got back last night i gave him the silent treatment...didn't plan on it but just couldn't bring myself to say anything to him because i was so mad.
We had words later that night that resulted in him slamming the door. This morning I wake to find him sleeping in DS's bedroom....that hurts my feelings again....sigh. Am I wrong? Am i acting immature? I honestly feel that his father shouldn't make him feel guilty about it...he works 12hour shifts at night and right now im working long hours too so we barely have time for anything. He has been calling her all week so its not like he hasn't been trying.

anyways. I have to get my lunch ready for work. Im so sorry to come on here and complain right now...i will try and do some personals later this evening after . WTG on all your fabulous workouts girls!!!!! So inspiring!

Melissa-yes....my work DEFINITELY needs a nickname;):confused:



Hugs to everyone...bbl tonight
 
Good Morning!

Im off today so I don't feel the Monday blahs!I do however have to work this Fri for my coworker which I am not tore up about. I told her that I didn't want the extra shift so she could work my Wed this week or my Mon next. She probably isn't tore up about either one of it but I won't be thrilled if I have to work, W,T,F either....3 days with people under my feet??? I don't mind 3 weekend days b/c there is no one around.

Hoping to get my new workouts today but who knows....I haven't had an update since they left NY on the 23rd! I have decided to give one of them to my sister for Christmas though...just need to decide which one!

Belinda** I am thinking of coming up with a new rotation today as well. Something that works the bics,tris and shouls 3x's a week. Getting my arms ready for Christmas time:D Its really the only time in the winter when we can get away with wearing sleeveless things or tank tops!

Ameila** Tough call about the fight. I can see where both of you guys are coming from. He is probably more pissed b/c of the situation he feels like you put him in when you got mad. He was trying to make his family happy ASAP while making you upset and not even realizing it. Men dont think....my DH would have done the same...especially when it comes to his mother. Im not telling you to back down but you might wanna talk about it. Its not as if he went to his friends house and ditched you. He probably feels like he is in a lose,lose situation.

Im gonna read yesterdays thread...then I will return!

Good Morning Ladies

Today will be a run with some sprints, and then Back and Biceps. I think I will pull out some Cathe today and do a premix!

Belinda- Enjoy your new rotation!! Where did you get this one from?

Amelia- (((((Hugs))))) My usual disclaimer....I'm not married and I dont' have children, but, seems like everyone is under a lot of stress and being pulled in so many directions. Hang in there, girl. On a lighter note......about your job...ha! I knew the drama would start! Especially in the corporate setting...ughhhh. I think I have a name......how about "asylum?" Just curious, do you have scheduled breaks? I dont' know what the law is down there. Monitoring bathroom breaks is ridiculous! I'd a told them to shove it so far up there you know what, give bathroom break a whole new meaning! This is how I keep jobs....LOL :eek:

Helene- I meant the board was quiet the day before! LOL Not when I was checking in at the crack of dawn. :eek:

Lori- I swear you read my mind!! * I will and must respond soon! * lol

Deb- I will pm you, right after this! Thank you so so much!!! :cool: Sending energy your way!!!

Cookie- Sounds like you are really enjoying your exchange student! I think the new workouts are just that tough! I see you were back on the MIC train again. ;)

Melissa- I will have to check out that Wii game....sounds like fun!! Omg dont' get me going on the dump.....how's the hole been? Amelia's job is a distant 2nd cousin twice removed.

Kristin- Sounds like you're having an awesome couple of days!! :D Enjoy the show tonight! The day I get a real tree is the day they come pre-lit...ha! lol

Ok...so.... DG...yes we still talk...in spurts...I actually saw him a couple of weeks ago. :eek:

The dump?? I get a random text from my manager over there that things weren't up to par and what happened. I get this text right after my bootcamp class, I"m still at the gym, not even thinking about the dump at 10 a.m.. on a Saturday morning. As much as it helps right now, I only went back to otb because they needed the help! So to get a text about that, and not even a phone call. So I text back saying I don't know what happened, it was business as usual. If I missed some things in clean up, then I told her to take it as maybe it's just too much for me because I'm so beat by the time friday comes around, and I stand around all night because it's so slow, and I'll just call it quits and you can find someone that can do the job. Then she texts back that she didn't understand, was I giving up Friday nights? I said, well if I cant' do the job, then yes I'm done. And that was it until yesterday. Then she text me yesterday.....if I don't want Friday's anymore, could she have time to find someone. I said absolutely, I'll stay until you find someone. Now keep in mind, I still dont know what she meant about the bar not being up to par...she never told me and I never asked!! I been there way too long to give a shit or feed into a text like I'm a full time employee there...give me a break. So there you have it! LOL

Ok ladies....peace out.

Hallo to the rest of the gang! BBL@
 
Hi Girls

Going to get ready to run out and do a few things that need to be done. I need to clue up some gifts while others I haven't even really started!:confused:

My workout was 30 mins on the TM, 15 mins on the bike and some UB work on my own.

Iris** You sound like me, half of the time when something is done wrong at work I don't even ask cause I don't care! Mind you...if my manager is there he will tell me anyways, he always does. Very professional of her to "text" you! LOL

Belinda** The tank top rotations calls for working shoulders, bics and tris 3x's a week. I did that rotation a few yrs ago and got some nice results. Nice workout!

I will probably bbl!

Lori:)
 
I completely agree girls, i had all day to think about it and im just going to let it go. I came home and we were back to usual, he's already forgot about it too. Thank you on your thoughts!!!

Iris, the asylum sounds perfect for that place. I walk around all day delerious there anyway so it fits;) we were slammed today..it was CRAZY!:eek: And i went to the bathroom whenever i wanted too!!;) So no more dump soon huh? Good going!!!

Lori-Nice workout today...can you believe that i have yet to start christmas shopping?:eek: I haven't had any time too:confused: Sunday is my day off and DH already said that were going to spend it shopping so im kinda excited..but then again, do i really want to spend my only day off shopping?:confused: (if it was just for me i would LOVE to;):p)

Belinda-I feel the same way about my MIL....I've never felt like she has liked me at all? My DH is her youngest and he is basically a momma's boy so that made the situation even worse. I see your still busting out that awesome heavy weights....you go girl....wonderwoman!!

I great big hello to Kristin,Cookie, Debbie, Helene & Melissa...hope I didn't forget anybody.

Well, overtime will stop on the 6th of December so i can start with my workouts then....i can't WAIT to get those 'new doms' from the weights;):cool: Meanwhile im not going to worry about it. I miss seeing Cathe everyday though...

later gators
 
Hey Girls,

Thought I would check in again...I'm getting good at this, aren't I? LOL
Good day today, not bombarded by sessions so I felt like I had more time for DS. I even wrapped a few gifts but realized that I wasn't prepared enough for it and had to call it quits. Ugh...I still have alot of things to get.

Ameila** Good job pretending like nothing happened. I was going to suggest that, we do that often around here! LOL

Funny story.....I went to the grocery store today and this guy came out of the back room. I looked at him and he looked very familiar....looked like the guy I dated when I was in grade 8-9 and of course I TOTALLY LOVED him. Why? I dunno. He had the personality of a shoe and wasn't exciting at all. I probably liked him so much b/c he didn't seem to care! LOL For a short time that year we stayed in my moms home town (which is where this guy is from) b/c my dad was doing some work on my grandparents house. When the work was done,I moved home and we broke up.Even though I would see him in school but it was pointless so we decided to go our seperate ways. I don't think I wanted to break up though...so when I seen him today I was like "OMG!" LOL I dodged on and pretended I didn't see/know him b/c Im not one to approach someone. I check out, start leaving the store (he is no where in sight or so I thought) and the next thing I hear is "excuse me". I thought I had left something behind but it was him. I don't know where he came from. So we chatted for a while. He as been working there since Sept and I have never seen him there before. Of course he told me I looked good and I thought "well...yeah" LOL That's not what I said! LOL Anyway...I think we all remember those crushes from highschool.....and he was mine.

Alright...I should jet! BB in the a.m!

Lori:)
 
Hi ladies!!

I did Kick Max Bootcamp premix tonight and 20 min of Just Dance 2 (again, ha!). I got 5/5 stars on the Rhianna song, go me (I'm a loser lol)! Ya know what? I used to dread the blasts on Kick Max and I could never do them all the way through, but they are a cake walk next to the HIITs!!!!

So my coworker and I are challenging ourselves to lose 1-2 pounds a week through New Year's. I dunno if this goal is feasible or not but we are gonna try.

Kristin, hope you had a great time at Radio City!! I used to love going to the Christmas Spectacular! Let us know what Nikolas thought. LOL @ the fit test on XBox; I thought I was all bad ass when I 1st got the Wii and when I took the fit test it said I had a fitness level of a 50 year old!! And my mom (who is over 50) got a 43 year old's...SHE NEVER WORKS OUT!!! :eek:

Belinda, yep unfortunately I have tried Jaeger. It tastes like medicine. He was probably referring to the Americans getting wasted on it LOL! Great workout today!

Amelia, I got it: your job is now called the pit! Cousin to the hole & the dump, and it stinks like an arm pit haha! :D I'm glad to hear you and DH worked things out.

Iris, hahahaha they are all cousins. The hole blows although no one was there today so I got in 8 hrs of shopping time for Cyber Monday ;) Only 4 peeps to go and I'm done with the gifts! Apparently the hole's head biotch has her panties in a bunch because I didn't RSVP to her Christmas party invite which is mandatory even though it's 1) after work hours and 2) an extra 1/2 hour drive for me. #1 I didn't get the invite (I prob deleted it by accident) and #2 guess what I ain't going anyway!!! I'm so tired of this passive-aggressive BS! You have beef, TELL ME! WOW @ the dump's boss!! That is nuts!!!! I love the irony how she expects you to be courteous and give her time to find someone but she texts you?! Redunk!

Lori, wow you are wrapping already?! I felt proud that I even started buying lol!! OMG your story is too funny! Did you have that heart in the stomach feeling when you saw him? It's so weird how that old nervous feeling comes back when you see someone even though you have 0 feelings for them now.

Ok so quitting time is 30 days away (not that I'm counting or anything) . Now, if they ask should I tell them where I'm going or should I say something like "An opportunity came up that I couldn't pass up and I'd rather not disclose any info." On the 1 hand I'd love to be like hahah suckas I'm going to med school but on the 2nd hand I'd LOVE for them to speculate and think I got a better job...
 
Hi all,
Just checking-in with nothing. I'm beat. Hugs to everyone. I have to pay too much attention in my TC tonight.
Have a good night.
 
Hi girls,

Also checking in with nothing (like Helene) no energy for a workout.

My story for today is: It was 8PM and I was running late from work and ran a red light:eek: the cop stops me and I told him I accidently ran it :confused: of course he laughs and I try to explain that I didn't know if I should stop at the yellow or go for it, needless to say I went for it. He told me since I live in the town he wouldn't give me a ticket, he wants me to be safe, TG. Now the real reason I was rushing was because I was starving and barely had lunch:eek:

Belinda & Iris - I didn't get you PM's

Lori - So you didn't tell us what "he" looks like?

Amelia - I'm glad you worked things out that was a tough one.

Melissa - I say leave them guessing;)

Helene - Hopefully your meeting won't be too long tonight:(

Kristin - Have fun at the Christmas show tonight.

Cookie & Trish - Hi

Good night everyone:)
