Morning Coolers,

Saturday was 10 Min. Solutions Knockout Body with weighted gloves. Even though this is an intermediate workout I really do enjoy it. Sunday I did nothing, just felt like watching all the football games on TV. This morning was P90X Chest, Shoulders & Triceps along with Ab Ripper X.

Kim, Tonique is a lower body workout with endless squats and lunges, but it keeps the heart rate up while working out. She also uses really light weights, and does things for shoulders and biceps during the workout. It is tough, but could get boring if done more than once a week.

Patricia, Circuit workouts are probably a good option for after this rotation. Hopefully Cathe will put out a new rotation to go along with the workouts. Maybe that would be an option, they should be going out soon I would think.

Have a great day!
 
Well life doesn't always go according to plan and I like plans;)

I really overestimated how much time it would take to get the house ready to go yesterday (but yes it's cleaner than it's ever been) and then with decorating/trick or treating, there was no chance of working out.

Last night I couldn't sleep, I think it had to do with a combination of coffee and sugar:rolleyes::confused: but after I did finally fall asleep then dd woke up with the stomach flu. :(:( I'm home looking after her. Of course, this becomes a problem when the school is so far away and ds needs to get to school.:confused:

Anyways she was up vomiting all morning now sleeping all afternoon. I guess the real estate people will still come this evening. It's just to take pictures, measurements, sign the contract.




Not sure what to do with the rotations now. I won't finish the Oct and the Nov rotation before our holidays. I can see lots of missed workouts over the next week with the house up for sale. I probably will want to spend the hour in the moring doing quick cleanups rather than working out and hopefully there will be people coming to see the house in the evenings. I think I'm going to try and relax and just take each day as it comes. Maybe just pick whatever gets my attention the days I do get a chance to workout
 
Morning Coolers,

Needed to get an early start to my day, so I subed Insanity Fast & Furious for Pure Cardio. That worked out great, I was done in 22 min. ;) I have a hair appointment after work, so need to leave a little earlier.

Kim, Sorry to hear about your weekend! Was your dd's flu a 24 hour thing? Hope she is feeling better. I always hated the showing of the house, just wanted to be able to live in my house and not have to pick every scrap up. ;)

Have a great day!
 
Yikes, I went looking for the Oct. thread. November already and today your house went on the market Kim!

Monday was a rest day as absolutely no gas in this engine. Tonight I just finished GS - B/S/B

Kim - how awful for DD - you can tell her it was all that candy she probably had the night before:p:D Hope she is feeling better today and what an added stress for you all right now:( Yep, just take it easy and try to remember where you stuffed things away in drawers to get them off the counter. That was my hardest problem

Laurie - I like the sound of a 22min workout. Too bad they all can't be like that.
 
Kim- no clutter in your house that I saw and it should sell fast with the Mickey Mouse decorations:D:D BTW, good to have pics without any snow on the ground. :):)
 
Morning Coolers,

Today was P90X Back & Biceps and Jackie Warners Abs from her Power Circuit workout. Biceps are feeling pumped right now. :D

Kim, Sorry to hear that your dd is still sick. Two showings already, that is good news. Looks like you have a great house there, so shouldn't be a problem selling it.

Patricia, Yes the time is going by quickly. Was at the hair salon last night, and made my next appointment for the week before Christmas. :eek: That just doesn't seem right.

Have a wonderful day!
 
3 showings done already and another one for this evening. I'm going to gain weight this week, no workouts and we keep going out for ice cream to get out of the way.

You noticed the Mickey mouse decorations!? I laughed when I read that this morning as I was leaving for work with my Minnie Mouse watch, my WDW jacket and carrying my Disney resort travel mug:D:D

Good job on the workouts both of you! Workout extra hard for me as it doesn't look like I'll be doing much this week!
 
Good Morning from a very blurry eyed Cooler

Worked until 9pm last night so no workout for me. It's year-end and yesterday was a milestone date of deadlines. Got home and watched Survivor but couldn't sleep as I was mulling over a reconciliation problem and was thinking about it until 1am:( Up early to work and solved it so all is good now.

I guess I got out of doing GS Legs last night so I didn't get it in for you Kim:D Not sure what kind of energy I'll have tonight! What's with the ice cream in the Fall? Ever heard of Tim Hortons:):) Hope life isn't too frantic but at least the activity you're getting shows that people are shopping for houses at this time of the year. You would sooo get along with my GF who is a Mickey nut - watches, purses, sweaters but she has stopped at decorating the house though:D

Laurie - I made a note to myself to yesterday to book a hair appt for this weekend and never got around to doing it, so thanks for the reminder now! I see you're incorp. JW's abs in alot in your rotations now. Does it hurt to laugh today?:)
 
Glad you got your work issue worked out! Don't you hate not being able to sleep worrying about work!! I don't think I'll be doing GSL either:rolleyes: Maybe I'll try and start on the Nov. rotation tomorrow (yes, and ditch the Oct. rotation) I have 4 weeks till Mexico, I may have to miss a couple of workouts if there are house showings but it'll give me a plan anyways.

Haven't forgotton about Timmy's, LOL. I'm addicted to Tim's coffee. We were there Tuesday during the first showing, then Dairy Queen during the second showing. Wednesday was Dairy Queen again:rolleyes: Today we only had one showing and the whole family went to get the groceries together.:eek:
 
Just after I posted last night, at 8:15 pm we were all hanging out in the basement and we heard the front door open. I guess there was some miscommunication and we didn't know about the showing:confused: How strange to have people just walk right into the house:eek: We just jumped in the car and went to Timmie's for 1/2 hour. Makes me not want to workout after work in case people show up:eek:

They poured our concrete sidewalk/driveway at the new house yesterday!

Are you working long hours all week patricia?

Any interesting plans for the weekend anyone??? Laurie, are you working out for the team??
 
Morning Coolers,

What a busy day yesterday, and I'm really really glad that DH is coming home from Boston tonight. I had to get in some forms for oldest dd's application to college. Now they need something from the school for her learning disability. :rolleyes: Hope this is the last of the things that are needed. I also had a dentist appointment that resulted in a caivity and a probable root canal. :p

I did manage to get in my yoga last night, and did Yoga Zone Power Yoga for Strength & Endurance. This morning was Tonique, sure was a sweat fest. I hate when the sweat gets in my eyes. :eek:

Kim, That has to be freaky having someone come into your house like that. You are really getting a lot of looks at the house, that is great. We don't have anything to interesting unless you count getting our new dishwasher tomorrow! :D I'm so ready for only having to wash pans by hand. ;) MMA Kickboxing on tap for tomorrow, and I'm hoping to get StretchX in on Sunday. Don't know if that is enough for everyone though. :D

Patricia, You sound like my sister with the end of year/month type. She is a manager of finance where she works, and sometimes is on her computer during her vacations. And to think I'm encouraging my dd to get into Accounting. :D She is such a math freak, just like me. Think she would love it. I love that JW workout, it reminds me of Ab Ripper X but a lot more fun. ;) Don't get the doms that I used to with it though. Glad I could help with the reminder.

Have a great day, I'm hoping to get on this weekend.
 
Our possession date is January 31st!!:D:D Should be a great day to move on the Canadian prairies, will probably be minus forty.:rolleyes::rolleyes: We'll be able to try out the new fireplace!!

We had 4 showings on the house today! Tomorrow there is 3 scheduled already and then the open house on Sunday. Hopefully all this activity will bring at least one offer on Tuesday!

Busy time for you Laurie! Always nice when everyone is home. Sweat in the eyes does sting! The dishwasher is exciting! We still don't have ours fixed. Remember when he didn't show up almost 2 weeks ago so I phoned on Monday and they gave me an appt for today but I ended up cancelling because of all the showings. :confused: I always liked Stretch X.

I think I'll skip the workout for today just in case of unexpected company ( dh and ds are at the football game so no one to answer the door). But will try and get started on the Nov. rotation tomorrow.
 
Woke up early and couldn't get back to sleep. Just finished 40/20 and ab circuits weights and plates. Felt good to workout after a few days off although it was a challenging workout!

Going to be a busy day for us!
 
Kim, I must have been channelling (sp?) you this a.m. I tossed and turned from 5:30am then DS came into bed with us so by 6am I was up and making coffee. Turned out okay as I did my workout at 7am and plenty of time to shower and get to my hair appt. I skipped this last week of the rotation too and did HSA. I think I will alternate cardio and TB with some circuits for the next week or so. Might even commit to all Kathy Smith week. Blow some dust off some workouts.

Got several inches taken off plus some hi-lights touched up. My hair was several inches past my shoulders so now just grazing them. Will hopefully make it quicker to blow dry as I can't go out the door with this colder weather with my head still damp.:D Bought some new dress shoes and boots so spent some $$ today. DH and I put up the Xmas lights outside so that is done also.

Now we can relax the rest of the night! Except I still have a b.day gift to wrap by 10:30am tomorrow:eek:

LOL Kim - We had peopel show up about 1/2hr early for a showing and I was just getting ready to come up from the basement when I heard people upstairs so I know what it's like:eek::rolleyes: You sure are getting lots of showings.

Laurie - Ouch on the root canal - at least the procedure is a lot better then even 10 years ago. I've had several so I know what they're like! I take care of my teeth but they are just not that great, where as DH doesn't and he barely has a filling:(:rolleyes: So have you run your 1st load of dishes yet? Who gets to actually install the DW? The worst of it is over now at work. Just have to prepare a year-end binder then wait for the Auditors to show up at the end of the month for 1 week. What's great about it is we do so much work in Aug/Sep/Oct that have a crazy couple weeks in Nov. it's done for another year and then it's all about partying to the end of the YEAR. Accounting is a great vocation because you would be surprised how many jobs need to know a bit of about it + you can go into any industry through out your career.
 
Well, another early morning so I got my w/o in. Did Kathy Smith Kickboxing. My hamstrings are really sore from yesterday's so this was just the right intensity to stretch them out and for a non-a.m. excerciser.:D

DS went to a Halloween b.d. party today so DH and I went shopping for t.v.s. Will go again now along with looking into a Cruise.

You have an open house going on about now don't you Kim?
 
Patricia, I used to be a big Kathy Smith fan but never had her kickboxing workout.

I did PUB this morning from the Nov. rotation. Decided to do the abs first before my arms were too exhausted to attempt the plank work.

Busy weekend for you Patricia, but some fun things! Christmas decorations, new tvs, cruises:p

We've had 17 showings so far as well as the open house. I haven't heard yet how the open house went. I took dd and a friend to a movie. DH was going to talk with the realtors after it was over but he's at hockey so haven't talk to him yet. The realtor told us earlier in the day that she's already been told of one planned offer. I'm getting anxious to get it over with.
 
we're up to 20 private showings as well as the open house. The realtor said there was about 15 families that came through the open house and one was a group of 13 people! At this point we're hoping for multiple bids tomorrow but will be happy with one! I'm so tired of hardly being home, at least the house doesn't need tidied much because we never get to stay home long enough to mess it up.

My abs are sore! The november rotation had us do abs 3 days in a row:confused: This morning was Hitt 30/30 and Ab Circuit No Equipment abs. It was the only morning that I tried to squeeze in a workout and leaving the house in good shape. I was a little grumpy with the kids;)

Morning Coolers

No workout last night for me. I was in bed and asleep by 8:30! DS had me up by 5:30am Sat/Sun and 4:30am Mon. so I was tired!

I'm going to do a circuit work out of some sort tonight!

Kim - all that activity sounds very promising. LOL about not being home so the house is staying clean. Sounds like you can take a break from any ab w/o for the rest of the week!
 
Morning Coolers,

Busy day yesterday so didn't have a chance to get on the forum. Saturday was MMA Kickboxing with weighted gloves, Sunday was nothing. Monday was P90X Chest, Shoulders & Triceps along with Ab RipperX. This morning was Insanity Pure Cardio.

Got our new dishwasher installed on Saturday, and I love the thing. :D

Kim, Wow you have had a lot of showings already, hope you start hearing some offers soon. Hope those abs of yours are feeling better today. Three days of abs can be tough.

Patricia, DH is the one that installed the dishwasher, but that wasn't the thing that took so much time. He also got a new faucet for our sink, and that one turned out to be a bigger PIA that he had planned. Everything under the sink is such a tight fit, and he is getting OLD! :rolleyes: Sounds like your hair is cute. How are you liking it so far?

Have a great day!
