Damage Control...Monday

Morning Glories.

I can't believe this. Today is a rest day and I still got up at 4:45. :rolleyes: I normall get up at 4:15. Could've slept until 5:15-5:30 but noooo, I had to go and wake up early. Bleh. Oh well. I went to bed at 9 and still got a little more sleep then I normally would have. I feel fine. It is what it is I guess...now I just have to fight the urge to work out coz I have the time. It's something I would certainly do but I am overdue for a rest day as it is by like 3 days....I won't do it. I won't. I won't. I won't. :p

I feel a little "rickety" this morning. I think it's due to old age and being naturally stiff when I get up in the morning though. LOL I don't think there's much in the way of DOMS goin' on...not even in my legs. Amy LOVES to give me DOMS in the legs. I'm surprised! Only did a couple lower body exercises in that work out y'day but they were killer nonetheless! :eek:

Diana:: Good job doing your STS work out but I have to ask! I know you were hungry so opted out of Insanity at the time but....Did you go back later and do it?? Come on! Be honest! You know you atleast THOUGHT ABOUT IT! ;):D

Jacque:: Soooo...what work out did you do y'ay?? Don't keep us in suspense over here! ;) So happy to hear that DS can stay put if he gets that raise! That would be awesome! Fingers crossed! :)

Guess that's all for now.

BBL~

Ok, I'm settled in at work. No one has been here yet. It's still early though. I'll come back in a bit to see if anyone's around....
 
Gooooood Morning ladies !

Off work today but have a couple things I didn't do on Friday so I'll spend a little time in a few minutes. Did not do my workout y'day :eek: as it took me a few hours to get my shopping done, came home and then went back out with DH to get him to look at a few things so I can "revamp" my family room. We have the old ugly brown panelling on both sides of the fireplace. Went to remove it a while ago and no texturing on the walls. My 'plan' is to use white beaded panelling and put up bookshelves on both sides with small windows (need to put those in too) so we can have sunlight and a cross breeze. First step is the panelling so we need to order that. Think I'll check on that today. And my legs are still sore . . . some sort of loosening cardio will be a must.

Wendy - good job fighting your natural urge to get a pumping workout in there. :p Sorry you're bored . . . something that used to happen to me years ago but I always have my HR forums to peruse. ;) Actually wish I had a little 'boredom' here and there at work these days for sure !

Diana - good job on the workout. I won't be able to go too heavy on the STS C as my shoulders are so creaky these days. Once I get to 20 lbs they grind like crazy after about 5 or 6 reps. Good luck on the transfer. I so dislike it when there are issues like that at work - and ya know it is typically me who gets involved at our company. Is there any way to get this "B" to put some of the backstabbing in writing through emails? CYA is a great tool if you can get her to do it.

Hey to the rest of you . . . BB throughout the day . . . have bills to pay and stuff to do on the computer so I know I'll be here ! :D
 
The shipping notices for the new workouts have started going out!!! I have my email up and will check periodically for my notice all day! If I get one today that means I'll have my workouts waiting for me tmrw when I get home! :D
 
Morning Ladies ..

well I think the stress finally took its toll on my body .. I have been sick a crap .. on couch all weekend .. fever, cough, stuffy head.. a general feeling of CRAPINESS. UGH .. so no workouts to report .. and dont think I need to today .. i feel a bit better .. but weak .. shaky .. maybe by tmrw I will feel better ..

Thanks for the well wish and hugs w/the sil situation .. unfortunately .. I dont see it improving in time for Thanksgiving .. she is being a selfish butt .. and they will be a no show :mad: and unfortunatly she is punishing the entire family .. :( ..

Wendy .. hope you are not getting the crud .. i started by feeling "off" .. then sneezing .. then sinuses .. then temp .. ugh

Jacque.. seems we all are ready for this year to be over .. you know the full moon is in full swing .. NOT HELPING thank you very much .. :p .. just multiplying the bad/psycho vibes .. UGH ..

Di .. GEESH .. yes sounds like your co-worker is worse than mine .. mine is exactly same way .. but instead of "talking the talk" .. she just whines and plays the poor pittiful I am so innocent card .. but yes .. stabbing you in the back the entire time proclaiming her innocence .. ugh .. hang in there .. your corporate PIA sounds worse than mine .. (cant belive I just said that) :confused:

Hello to Lori ..

Has anyone rcvd their shipping notice yet??? was hoping I would come in this morning and have one in my inbox .. but .. crap .. not yet .. COME ON .. I am READY for them .. at least I should be well by the time they get here .. :D.. I only have today and tmrw .. then I am off the rest of the week .. WOOT WOOT ... have a great one!
 
WOOT WOOT .. hoping that I have my little grubby paws on the workouts this week .. wooohooo!!!!!
 
Laura:: I actually feel pretty "poopish" right now BUT I just got TTOM last night so that COULD very well be the problem. Time will tell and fingers crossed!!! Healthy vibes heading your way though! Feel better fast! I should have the work outs waiting for me when I get home tmrw night! Wish it was tonight instead but I'll take it! DH bowls on tuesdays so it's actually a good time to do whatever previewing I want to do before I dig in on Wednesday! :D
 
So what's wrong with this picture . . .

I am off today and working while Wendy is working and checking the forums getting all the latest and greatest news ? ? ? :eek: :rolleyes:

Wendy - thanks for all the info ! TG we can count on you to be our "Informant". :p I'll check my email in a minute.

Laura - so sorry you're feeling bad. This is the first year in a long time where I've let the stress make me sick and I HATE IT with a passion. Yep, DH and I were admiring the huge beautiful full moon last night on the way home from shopping. It was just cresting the hills while we left the mall and popped up over them while we sat at the stoplight. Beautiful but 'nasty' when it comes to wive's tales, huh? Won't Bro come to the TDay festivities without SIL? DH was sick last year and I went alone . . . it was his family, not mine . . . That would serve her little whiny butt ! ! ! How insensitive on her part - we all want pity sometimes but come on - you are all supporting her, not causing the issues ! 'Nuf said. Take care girlie and get better before you workout again. Save the strength to heal - the DVD's will be there (perhaps even some new ones ;)) when you feel better.

Off to check for a shipping notice ! ! ! ! ! WOOT WOOT WOOT ! ! ! :D

Adding: well I didn't sign up for overnight so mine is scheduled for delivery Dec. 1st. Guess you ladies will have to update me and then I'll schedule my rotation based upon your reviews - bummer times 10 !

I don't even have a shipping notice yet, Jacque!!! :( That's what I get for spending more time perusing for the important Cathe info then doing my job!:p Good luck with the room re-decorating that you are doing! I am sure it will come out looking great! So why are you working on your day off? You should be doing something FUN!

Wendy - LOL ! ! ! I did get my order in pretty quick but who knows why I got mine quickly? I didn't get a couple things done on Fri that are needed by the "big boys" so alas a little work. TG as my Pres, who commutes from Oregon, left fish in the trunk of his car at the airport on Thurs and won't be back until Tues. He wanted me to go take it out - now mind you the airport is 35 min from our worksite and me . . . had he sent the email on Thurs or Fri rather than Sat afternoon (which I could have seen) - I was up there about 5 mins away at the hockey game on Sat PM. Go figure.

Ah well, some lucky sole will get about an hour and a half of pay to go toss the fish in the trash today ! :p

Just finished a 20 min SS run on the TM - will do some step later. Making chili so won't have to worry about dinner tonight ! Woo Hoo ! BBL as I need to get a movin'. No more 'puter time until later today . . . :rolleyes:
 
OMG, Jacque! I once went out to dinner and forgot left over fish in my trunk over a weekend! I was driving to work on Monday morning wondering what the heck that awful stench was! When I finally figured it out I was partially relieved and partially :eek: but I guess even the "big guys" do stupid cr@p like that once in a while, huh? :p I hope I get my shipping notice before I leave work today otherwise I will worry that something went wrong w/my order! :eek: I don't have the email saved. I hope I can find the printed out receipt from it just incase there is a problem! :confused:
 
Wendy ..

MY FL friend says that if you get yours shipped priority mail you may not get shipping notice .. heck I dont know if I got priority overnight or regular .. cant remember .. dang it .. may I will have a nice early surprise coming ..
 
Laura:: I did not use USPS (atleast not on purpose!) for pre-order. I used UPS. I used USPS for someting else and it took like 5 freakin' days to get to me! NEVER AGAIN! Worth it to spend the few extra bucks to basically have it within 24 hours of it leaving Cathe's place! If I clicked on USPS by accident I'll be pissed! :mad:
 
Let's try this again....I was here a while ago and got interupted. Hopefully my manager will be gone for atleast 10 mins so I can check in!:eek:

Yesterday I was kept busy all day. I did 3 workout sessions, put the tree up (but not decorated) , had DH's family in for supper and I went for a 10 k run. Today I had a workout sessions at 6:30 and I managed to get home long enough to do 30 mins of cardio between the TM and the bike:confused: Maybe tonight I will fit some abs work in ...although I have to be back here again at 6:30'ish!

I don't have a shipping notice and Im not even sure I will get one. I think the last time I ordered from this site I didn't get one but they did "tell" me it was shipped.

Wendy** I will cross my fingers for you that you will get your shipping notice soon. I am guessing you won't have to wait to long for your workouts. Do you live close to Cathes gym at all????? Congrats on taking a rest day! LOL

Laura** Hope you feel better soon. I need to read the threads I have missed to see what's happening with SIL. I am guessing that she is being stubborn?

Jacque** I did read enough of yesterdays thread to figure out that you are thinking about NOT putting up a tree!!!!:eek::eek: Oh man...I loves me tree!!!

O.k...I hear people coming! Better scoot!

Lori:)
 
Lori:: I live about 90 minutes north east of Cathe's gym. I am proud to share the same state w/her! ;) If I order via UPS I get my order the next day as long I get it in before the shipping cut off and the next day is a business day for UPS. I sure hope I didn't make a mistake when I ordered. No shipping notice yet. I'm not usually such a worry wart. I dont' know why I'm being like this today!? :confused:
