Hi Everyone,
Today I did a short BJ Gaddour workout + a body weight tabata - a short cardio day for me today
Henriette - enjoy your time off. I cannot believe you are forced to leave work 4 weeks early even though it's great to have the time off! with my first child I actually went into labour at work, was picked up by my DH and driven to the hospital where I gave birth just a few short hours later. She was almost 2 weeks early. My water broke at lunch.
I do not have a question of the day ladies - just not creative enough. Hopefully someone has a good question for us all. Have a good day everyone.

Question: Rather or not if you drive, do you own a car....what kind is it?
I have a Suzuki SX4. It's a small hatchback, but I had a Suzuki X90 before, now that was a small car!
Little 2 seater, I really loved it, and had it a Long time, but decided that I needed something I could
Actually haul something in, besides a grocery bag!

Good day ladies.
We(DH drives) used to have a Volvo Wagon, although we have been car-free for about three years now. He drives an electric motorcycle as he does require something more direct than the train in the evenings for his work meetings. We don't miss it.
OMG Ceci!!

Hi ladies. Elsie...WOW! I can't imagine being without a car. So you must live where you can walk to shop, eat etc? Right now I have a Nissan Rogue. I had SUV's for about 10 years and I wanted something smaller so I got a Hyundai Elantra. Great on gas but man it was small. Linda I also love a small car but it just wasn't working for us. So we went back to SUV's.
Siobahn...going into labor at work?! That must have been scary. Henriette, I'm excited for you. The baby is coming and now you get to rest up, read, sleep.
I think I'm in a workout slump, nothing has been exciting me lately. Plus I'm still getting lousy sleep so I have little energy at 5:30 am. This morning I did Michelle Dozois Pure Cardio from her Peak 10 set.
hello to all who follow. Good luck w/ the job interview Annette.

Hi Everyone,
I drive a pewter coloured volkswagon station wagon cos we have a dog. My whole roof is a window which I love. And funny enough my DH needed a new car the next year too but... he bought himself an audi S4 hmmmm no hatchback so no dog allowed, stick shift which I don't drive anymore and he parks far away from other cars for fear of a scratch. Not me, the first month I bought my car, I accidentally hit a line of recycling bins. I still have the looong faint scratch
and yes, a quick labour was interesting but not scary. raising a child is wayyyyyyyyyyy scarier. Good luck with your licence Elsie. I was scared to drive. lots of sweating. I still get nervous sometimes but i am actually pretty aggressive out there. i love driving cos that's when i listen to my podcasts.

Hi gals,
While the interview went well, what they would pay me per hour was a joke if not an insult[emoji44].
Plus the out of pocket expenses for your clearances and gas to drive back and forth wasn't worth it for $8 an hour[emoji44]!!
So I said thanks for seeing me but no to the job and hubby agreed.
Came home and did 49 minutes of the Ultimate Taebo for my workout today.
Yes, I drive, technically my husband owns all our vehicles due to a technicality with a failure to add my name to the title. But I drive a GMC Yukon XL,
Hubby drives a Honda Accord. Middle son drives our older Honda Accord we sold him so he could work his job (he's still paying us for it).
Have a great day and workout!![emoji16]

Elsie, I wanted to tell you about micro blading. It's interesting for sure. After getting numbed up she starts to scrape the area and depositing the color. Similar to tattoos but not as deep (I think). The scraping sound is odd but as long as I don't feel it, I'm good. The color starts to fade after almost a year but it's not THAT noticeable. I'm more self conscious about it though, so I go for touch ups. I have an appointment later this month. Perhaps I'll take a close up pic and post it here.
Good evening girls, tonight I did a blender mix of Body Fusion/ Upper-Lower Body Sculpt. I cannot believe
That we haven't heard anything this week about the new workouts, not a peep. I'm beginning to get a little
Perturbed about it. Here it is, Oct. 12 and nothing....I am a somewhat patient person, but this is getting
Ridiculous, IMO. Maybe it was late fall/early winter of next year!

Oh, that sounds interesting Peg. As more of my eyebrow hairs turn white, I would like to look into something like this. (I started to grey at 23 ....some folks go grey early.)
Yes, we did for years live close to nearly everything although we are a little away (but not a lot) from things now. We have a affordable grocery delivery service that uses all electric/hybrid vehicles and honestly, for everything else I haven't needed a vehicle. When my young niece was staying with us 2 days a week, we just bused school trips etc. I guess you'd have to adapt a bit, but it's not difficult at all and with people getting away from gas vehicles, I suppose it is just more the norm here. I am getting my license as we are moving across the country soon and my aging parents are going to need me for health trips etc. and they live in a part of the province that is quite away from everything. It's going to be fun times. lol. (some sarcasm there).
Linda, you're right ...the schedule does seem delayed doesn't it? I didn't get ICE 'till Jan 5th, so I usually do not expect this 'late' Fall statement, anyway. lol.
Annette, so sorry the interview was a bust. Good that you know your worth!!
Hope you are feeling good Henriette and yes, excited about your deserved time off! Time to get ready.
Missy, hoping you have been on the mend.
Ceci, yeah, I am expecting a lot of sweating! There are some schools here that are woman owned for teaching women & I am considering doing that for the first three weeks.
I didn't workout today - rest.

Hi ladies,
Another late check in for me. I also didn't workout Thursday. Had my last day at the office before my leave and then I spent the evening doing laundry and somehow got in lots of steps. Probably also because I stopped to get groceries after dropping M off at training only to realize I'd left my wallet at home, so I had to go home first and then I walked to the local supermarket.
I have only ever owned one make of car. First car I got 6 years ago when I got my license was a 12 year old Seat Ibiza hatchback. After 4.5 years it really wasn't reliable anymore and I ended up getting another Seat Ibiza, but station wagon. Great medium sized car... big enough for transporting lots of groceries or kids and basketballs. When we go on vacation we usually take my bf's BMW X5 as there is more space there for 5 people, but now with the baby even that won't be big enough. We'll either need a van or have to go with two cars if everyone is coming.
