Controlling the Damage with Insanity...MONDAY!

[gidget1978]

Good Morning!

Sorry I was MIA yesterday. Not like me at all but we went to visit friends on Sat night and I didn't get to bed until 2:30 so I didn't get up yesterday morning to workout before work. But I did skip off of work early and ran outside. Grant it, most of my run was done in the dark but I stayed in town so there was plenty of light and it wasn't cold so I knew it wouldn't be slippery. Anyway...I kept running and running and by the time I got home I had ran 15 kms I was very happy with that cause I was considering taking a rest day. I was running quit fast as well so I started to get a bad belly on the way home.

I have another play date today....with the same girl who was here on Thurs. She is a bit anal but I like her. We use to hang out with them years ago but she was younger and a little annoying so I ditched her...LOL She was only 19 at the time so I should have expected that. In the meantime I was probably only 21 or so.
So b/c of the play date Im not sure when I will get my workout in or what I will do for that matter. I have to call her to see when we are getting together, for some reason I think its this afternoon, which is better for me.

I am going to see what I missed yesterday and then I will return!

O.k...am I missing something? I don't see a thread from yesterday. Either I am blind or no one had time to check in yesterday!

Morning Girls.

I left out the word GOOD on purpose though. When I came home last night I felt fine. I was exhausted but that was not surprising. I went to bed around 9:30 still feeling fine but tired. Well at some point during the night I got cold. I was wrapped up to my neck under the covers shivering away. My body was achey and my lower back was KILLING me. I felt like I was running a fever for sure. Then I woke up and I sweating then cold then sweating then cold. UGH. This morning I am not at either extreme but some where in the middle. I took my temp-no fever but I can tell I'm still not right. I still have slight body aches and a mild "icky" feeling. I think (unfortunately) that I need to take a rest day today and just relax on the couch before work. Fingers crossed that whatever is/was wrong passes quickly!!!!

Off to get Joey fed and dressed for school.

BBL to do personals and tell you about my weekend in AC.

BFN!

Good morning girls!

Another one here who has to apologize for going MIA this weekend. I went to this really lame Bar Association dinner Saturday night and then had a fairly lazy day yesterday, except for grocery shopping

So no workout to report for yesterday, but I did do Max Interval Sports Training for the first time on Saturday and LOVED it! Then this morning I did Shaun's upper body workout. It was a goodie.

Lori: She is a bit anal but I like her. I don't know why, but this had me LMAO! Too funny. Maybe because we all have a friend like that. Someone who makes you go They always surprise you though when you finally see them relax and do something you wouldn't expect. It can be pretty entertaining.

Wendy: Sorry to hear you're feeling under the weather. Everyone in my family has been dealing with a flu and I'm keeping myself in a plastic bubble! I hope you're not coming down with anything like that and it's just fatigue from the weekend.

Diana: How much snow did you end up with? Enough to keep you in and tackling the laundry? I was in all day yesterday and still didn't manage to ger my laundry done

Jacque: You are way more motivated that I am on the weekends. Did you get everything you wanted done?

K, I better get some work done, but I'll bbl~

Hello to everyone else!

Morning ladies !

Well I checked here a couple times but since Sat was so dead I figured we all just needed a break so didn't start a thread. I definitely wasn't doing any Damage Control on this end so . . .

Lori - nice job getting a long run in. Hope you have a great time with your friend - have to say I am anal myself, BUT, am learning to 'let go' more and have always had it in me to have a great time and laugh lots !

Wendy - sorry you aren't feeling well. A rest day sounds in order so you can get over what ever has attacked you. Hope you can make it through work without feeling too badly.

Jen - Too bad your Sat night wasn't really fun. So you have the deluxe Shaun version also? I am seeing many good reviews on those extras. I did get most of my intentions complete and even did loads of laundry and cooked some for this coming week.

Diana- saw the Avs didn't win . . . sorry to hear since you were there. Was it a good game or did they just never get started? We lost last night too - broke a winning streak. Ah well, they need to have something to work on ! Hope the snow doesn't have you to bummed and you can still get around. Or better yet, that it is too high so you need to stay home and have more time to workout !

I am having an awful time with my arms/hands. My left arm is hurting badly and there is no way I can lift. (I do still have sore tri's from early in the week last week though ). My right hand has been numb lots and woke me up last night. No workouts for me this weekend - ditched Sat. and I had my workout room moved around so DH could put the closet doors in. He doesn't start his chores until late afternoon so didn't finish until after 6 PM. By then I was too tired and we ate early! I finished my laundry after dinner so that was it for me.

Hoping to get some sort of cardio in today - the scale is creeping up - may be a side effect of the meds (I hope) but will tighten the food this week just in case it isn't.

UGH .. yes Morning Ladies .. but no "good" morning today

I have had a head ache/migraine all weekend .. didnt think it was a migraine since it had been hurting since WED of last week . FRI it got worse .. SAt was bad .. but yesterday was worse .. so I broke down and took migraine meds last night and feel a bit better today it is right behind my bad eye .. and I do have eye infections in both eyes .. so that could be what is going on .. I just want to feel better .. no workouts to report .. the head couldnt take it .. it was a weekend of laying around .. we did go out FRI night .. SAT night was ballgame night .. WE LOST .. it was a nailbiter .. we screwed up and a pass got intercepted .. thought we were gonna beat 'em though .. it was 14 - 0 first half .. but they came back our rivals won

Lori .. My DH is anal!! LOL .. well w/work and business stuff he is VERY ANAL... but when he lets loose he lets loose

Wendy .. we are both under the weather huh?? Hope you dont have a bad bug .. maybe it will go away!! dont push it ... get well .. get your rest . and tell us about A/C when you can!

Jen .. what is Max Interval Sports Training .. is that one of SeanT delux w/o ???

Di ..hope you are not snowed under .. it is gorgeous here .. I felt so bad I couldnt even get out and enjoy it

Jacque ... your ole bones are giving you H### lately .. MINE TOO .. hoping this weekends unplanned rest will have helped both my knee and my shoudler!!! Hope you feel better!!

OK .. better run .. have a great one .. this morning started off w/a bunch of WILD KIDS running around screaming .. and they PEED ALL OVER the floor .. WTH??? I dont get some parents now adays .. they didnt say anything ... .just walked off ignoring it .. it was a MESS ... it is INSANE again .. and the phones are still nonstop .. this is NOT helping my noggin!!!

Hi ladies,

I was a sloth all weekend long. No reason, I had plenty of time to do whatever workouts I wanted...but I never got of my rear to do anything other than a ton of laundry.

This morning was leaner legs & abs. I felt great and used a 50#bb for it. I was feeling so good during the w/o that I was kickin' myself for not working out over the weekend! Tonight is bootcamp class and it should be a goodie!

The strap on my GWF needs glued back together. Its actually the small round velcro piece that came loose. I'm kind of annoyed but DH thinks it can be super glued back on.

I booked one of my holiday flights, from portland to denver rt and it was $1045. My round trip to get from denver to portland should be in the $250-$350 range, much more affordable.

Lori-nope, you didn't miss anything yesterday. It's hard to come here an post when you blow off working out! Sounds like you got a good run in. I haven't ran in the dark since I tripped and fell and got road rash in my hands and knees, and DH was pissed. Have a fun playdate today!

Wendy-I hopy you're not coming down with something. Best to rest and hope whatever the bug is passes right on by.

Jen-Nice job with MIST-I still haven't tried that one, maybe later this week. We ended up with about 6-8 inches and a lot of it should melt today since the temps are in the 40's. A lame bar assoc. dinner....so are lawyers as dry as the seem? Sorry it wasn't as much fun as you were anticipating.

Jacque-the avs didn't start playing as a team until the 3rd period! The cannucks first goal was within the first 2 minutes, second goal in within the first 10 minutes and it just went downhill for the avs after that. They did try to turn things around in the 3rd period but it was too little too late. The drive home was terrible, blizzarding snow, icy roads, one lane open on the hwy...did I mention icy...slid a few times..very scary. I wonder if you have a pinched nerve causing all your arm and hand pain. Is the PT helping at all?

Laura-definitely not a fun way to spend the weekend, inside with a lingering migraine. Hope you feel better real soon. Sounds like all our teams lost this weekend. Even the Broncos lost...again...3 in a row now.

Hope everyone's day ends brighter than it started!
