Hi Everyone,

I love the pic henriette - you look so happy! and wow - that sure is a lot of dvds. I remember those days when I was first starting out (I know you are not starting out). I spent $2000 in my first year. Oh those were happy excited times when the doorbell would ring and another big package would arrive, addressed to ME.

We got a lot of snow last night and it's snowing now. I love the snow. It always puts me in a good mood.

I did short workout yesterday - supercuts with some modifications for my foot + short pilates

Today I did Daily Burn - the short chest/back workout which wasn't much but... I slept in.

Have a great day everyone.

Today, I was playing with our new tv and its ability to play you tube videos. So I played one kickbox workout, but 20 minutes in it lost its appeal. So I didn't want to start an hour long workout so late, but I found a very old Advance Taebo from the original series on the You Tube on the tv. So I started it and did 31 minutes of it.

I have a ton of laundry to do today, so now it is laundry max![emoji6][emoji44]

Have a great day and workout [emoji3]!

Oh Annette, I hate it when that happens! Just when you start to really get into it....POOF! So frustrating but I'm glad you found something to do.

Henriette! HOLY COW!! You are seriously getting the goods huh!? That's awesome. And it's fun too. Do you also have Live or On Demand? I'm glad you tried Yvette as well. Tough stuff right? Also, I wasn't aware that it doesn't snow a lot where you are. We get snow, sometimes a lot of snow!! For those that are not used to it, life can be quite dangerous. Driving becomes a nightmare.

Linda, don't feel bad for buying dvd's. I go through phases like that and buy a completely new trainer. Then if I like it, I feel the need to have every dvd they've made! It keeps life interesting doesn't it?

Today I did the last Kelly workout. I think it was called Trim and tone. After the 30 minutes (NOT- is was about 24 minutes) I did the step segment from X10, added my own abs and called it a day. I'm really disappointed in these workouts. not challenging at all. But we have Cathe's newest coming soon. Oh hell I don't need to purchase another dvd ever!! But like Henriette said...shopping is fun!!

Hi to all who follow. I'll catch up again later.

Greetings girls, boy, it's cold & windy here tonight! I mean, Brrrr cold!
Tonight I did a blender STS chest & back workout, about 35 min. Hoping Cathe's new ones arrive by
Christmas, but, unless they get on that truck soon, I can't see it happening...
Annette, there are tons of great workouts on YouTube..that's neat you can watch them straight from your tv,
You must have gotten a "smart tv" . Mine is still a dumb tv, but that's ok, it's in the right house!!!!
Hey to everyone, have a good evening.

Hi ladies,

Tuesday the primary school teachers were striking so Magnus was home all day and he asked if we could walk to the shopping center a couple of km away as it was too Icy to drive anywhere, so I put Mick in the baby carrier and we walked there. By lunch we were back home and I had already done 10.000 steps!

In the afternoon Magnus had a oral hygiene appointment so off we went by foot again. Lots of walking on slippery roads.

In the late afternoon I wanted to try Crosstrain express All step (one of my many new ones), but Mick would not lie alone so I gave up after the warm up. It's no fun trying to workout if a baby is super unhappy, so we went back to the couch with a book... meaning he could nap in my arms. It seems whenever other people are around he does not nap as well as when I am alone with him, so then it's hard to get a workout in. If he falls asleep with me, the minute I try to put him down he opens his eyes wide and gives me this look: what do you think you are doing?!

With regards to the dvds... no I don't have Live nor on Demand. With everything I got this time it cost me approx what on Demand would cost for a year, also due to taxes etc. but together with what I already own my Cathe collection is more or less complete with the exception of STS. And this way I can enjoy the workouts forever and not just 1 year. I had Live for a few months, but with all the dvds I own also from other trainers I don't feel that I make enough use of online subscriptions unless I neglect all dvds that I own already. I have subscriptions to Rippedism (for life I believe it is) and Get Healthy U tv, but that was an offer for 20 dollars for a year and I will be cancelling that.

Today, Wednesday the weather conditions are even worse. It is no longer snowing, but raining and cold... so our whole neighborhood is covered in ice! It's like an ice skating rink. Magnus hurt himself leaving here trying to get to school and came back home. With a newborn here I am not ready to drive across the ice to get to safer roads, so with temps increasing during the day I hope the ice melts so we become mobile again. Even walking with the baby carrier would be super dangerous today. It's maybe not even 500m to get out of our neighborhood, but those are some very dangerous meters especially with a newborn.
