Lori:: Speaking of still having gifts to buy!!! I am sooo behind on my shopping and I have ZERO motivation to do it! 
I am so incredibly bahumug about Christmas this year. It's awful. I hear ya on buying Rylan underwear. I felt the same way about Joey...like he'd NEVER EVER potty train and then one day it just happened.
Diana:: Yay for new windows! So how did your neice and nephew like their Christmas gifts?
Jacque:: Busy busy still, ey? Nice to have the holiday at your place. You have to do the work but you don't have to travel. That's something I have yet to experience. Our house is too small. I think I am going to try to do an Insanity work out once again this morning. If my belly still hurts from it then I may do the step portion of LowMax and save weights for tmrw. I'm jonsing for cardio bad!!!
I'm in a bad mood this morning. There's still a lot going on in my life that is weighing on my mind pretty heavily. I guess today it's weighing a bit heavier even and making me cranky. BLAH! I am going out to see a band with the girls tonight. It's always a fun night (which I could use!) but it's going to a long and late one and it's that part that I am not in to right now. I feel bad backing out though so I'm gonna push through and hope for the best.
Okay, gotta jet if I wanna get a decent work out in!
Catch ya later ladies!

Hi Ladies,
I wish I could sleep through the night on a regular basis. I was awake for about 3 hours last night and am draggin' this morning. My DH is an ass about it too. Made me mad. I was hoping to do leaner legs this morning but it's just not going to happen.
I have to pick Jerod up at lunch today as they have early release. Not sure if I mentioned, but Jerod and his 1st period science teacher do not get along. We've met with the teacher once, with Jerod present and he was so rude to my son (he made Jerod cry in front of all 4 of his core teachers). I would expect a teacher to be encouraging (not threatening)if you want your student to perform better. Jerod has always been an honor student and is in all honor classes. There seemed to be another incident with this teacher and DH asked Jerod to talk to the counselor about it. Basically the counselor told Jerod he needs to take the issue up with the teacher. Well that doesn't work in this case. I'm so mad about this and obviously too emotional to speak to the teacher or counselor objectively. I really wanted to get this problem resolved before winter break.
The drapes and valances won't be ready from the dry cleaners until Tuesday. I was hoping they would be ready on Saturday. We feel a little exposed without the window coverings, but the sheers are all up and that's better than nothing.
Wendy-It must be the stress of the Holidays getting to all of us! I'm kind of bah humbug too and I love Christmas. The expense of getting the girls out here has really drained us. I got Angela a friendship bracelet making kit which she really liked. I got Sakeia some blendy markers with some coloring pages, and more cool markers. He's a bit hyper so its good for him to have something to do during quiet time. Have fun at the concert tonight!
Jacque-We were losing a lot of heat through our windows. Also, a couple of the bedrooms windows would get frost on the inside of the window. They do look nice and should help us save some money on our utility bill. Of course we have to pay for them. The financing the window company offered isn't terrible, it's 9.9%. I think we can get 5% or less at the bank which would also cut down on the length of the loan. Sorry you have been so busy. Men just don't get it do they!! I'm telling you, leave a to do list for your DH and I'm sure he will take care of it. My DH is great if I tell him exactly what I want done. I'm glad you finally...I know its been weighing on you...got your xmas lights up. I'll check out your pics on FB. As far as vacation goes, I always take off the last 2 weeks of December as my kids would fight. This year I changed it to the last week of Dec and the first week of Jan since the girls will be here. These vac weeks are planned well in advance.
Lori-I know you had to be to work early today...to meet the new owners. Hope you like them. Soon you should find out what kind of employee benefits you will be receiving, who knows, maybe they will be better than what you have now!
Hi Laura and Jen....hope you girls are all ready for xmas!

Hey Ladies.
I am on my lunch break now. I work 5 minutes from my mom's house so I came here to hang out and play on her pc while I eat. NIce perk of working in this town but it probably won't last much longer cause I am likely to be switching jobs soon!
Well atleast something good happened today! I was able to complete Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs this morning! My belly cooperated for the most part! YAY! I didn't finish CA though. I did it the cardio and the c-sit exercises but had to stop after that for time's sake. No biggie. I was just happy to be able to get back to Insanity. My next X work out this week will be my last for phase 1 I think. I still have one week left of Insanity month 1 so I will do it and Core Syn maybe for a week before I start the X weight work again. At that point I'll be in my Insanity recovery week so I'll X weights and CC&B for a week before moving on. I am enjoying this rotation. It's enough variety to keep me motivated and I am allowing myself to substitute at times if I'm really not feeling something which also helps.
Diana:: Yeah the holidays are definitely part of it. I have Christmas shopping to finish and no desire to do it. My work situation is also stressing me out though as are some personal issues which I really can't talk about here. It's just seems like everything is happening all at once and I don't deal well with a lot of crap going on at the same time. I get overwhelmed and freaked out pretty easily. BOOH! Glad your niece and nephew liked their gifts. Sorry getting the dgd's out to visit you is packing a whallop on your pocketbook. That's never fun. A DH (in general, not yours in particular) being an ass about something!? Well that's no surprise to me! LOL
