Morning.

Well, it's official, we got dumped on again! :rolleyes:

Not sure what the day holds as far as work and school. Still too early to tell. At the very least DS has a delayed opening. They called that last night but it may very well change to a closing....

I have Disc 5 on tap but am more in the mood for cardio so not sure what I'll do yet...

Just wanted to get us started...

I'll be back!:cool:
 
Good Morning!

Second night in a row with DS sleeping with us....normally he is very good but the last two nights there have been feet in my face:confused: And with feet a kick could possibly come!:eek: So I had to shift him a few times. I think he woke up around 12 and I when I looked he was poking his head out of his room door saying "come in Rylan's bed nease" . Atleast he used his manners.

It was absolutely crazy here yesterday. A friend of mine canceled her workout on Tuesday night so she came last night just a few mins before my MIL and SIL came for their workout. My MIL thought it was a good idea to make dinner so when we were done all we would have to do is eat and I didn't have to worry about a thing. I know...sounds like a great idea, right? Well my house was crazy b/c the kids were crazy. Here I am trying to train 3 people and I have kids screaming, kids asking for stuff....blah...blah...blah! Its a good thing my friend likes kids. Thankfully my 7 canceled b/c it was mahem here.

I got a little workout in myself last night even though I was on call. I took the chance. I did 20 mins on the TM, 10 mins on the bike, and Amy Bentos slo mo chest and back. Today will be cardio and abs. My client with the bad back is taking a break until she figures out what the problem is...not a bad idea I'd say. Im thinking it will be 2-3 weeks before I see her again. Then one lady I am training is following ww's and two weeks in a row she as only lost .4 of a pound! The first week she lost 4.8, the 2nd .4 and the 3rd .4. I felt so bad for her b/c she has been working really hard and I don't know what the problem is. She says that she hasn't cheated at all. Im wondering if her body is maybe adjusting to working out, or she isn't eating enough, or she is still eating to much b/c the ww's plan as changed since I followed it. I think she has herself screwed up from years of yo-yo dieting. BUT in saying that I think it will come...it has to!

Laura** How are you feeling today? What are your plans for this weekend with DH?? Training is going good. I am really settling into this new schedule I have created for myself.

Wendy** We are suppose to have more snow here starting tonight, I think. I think we have enough now....

Did I tell you guys about my lululemon feddish?? Its kind of getting out of control. Ordering online makes me happy!:eek: I love getting things in the mail...esp workout clothes. So I added up how many peices I have (not $ amount, that would just be stupid) and I received 5 peices for Christmas and I have ordered atleast 12 other peices myself:eek: Its a good thing DH doesn't care but really I am working super hard...making atleast a extra $500 a week.......so I earned it, right?:p;)

O.k...I may bbl!

Lori:)
 
My work out is done! I was getting ahead of myself saying Disc 5 was on tap though. It was Disc 4. This is the beginning of week 4 and my second time through discs 4-5-6. I tacked on abs burnout and core on the floor from BBC S&B when I was done. Good work out. :)

So DS' school ended up closing for today (no surprise there) and my job is on a 2 hour delayed opening so I am in no rush to go anywhere quite yet. Not going to bother to get cleaned up yet. I just changed out of my sweaty clothes when I was done working out b/c I have to shovel my car out yet...Talk about the upper body getting a work out! After Disc 4 AND shoveling I won't be able to move from the waist up tmrw! :eek:

Slept great again last night. Was pretty wide awake come 3:30 but that's cause we were in bed BEFORE 8:30 last night! DS passed out in bed early so DH and I took advantage and went to bed early as well. We are definitely showing our age. LOL As a result I was awake well before the alarm went off but not due to insomnia for once. I am well rested. YAY!

Lori:: You are a lulu lemo fanatic girl! I think you went for your PT cert and started training people just to be able to justify buying the work out clothes! :p

BBL~
 
Hi Ladies,

I woke up all stuffed up this morning. Feels like a head cold coming on.

Today will be cardio, thinking BM2 cardio only premix. I may change my mind by the time I get downstairs. At some point I need to get working on abs again. I just haven't had the time.

Wendy-sorry about all the snow. That's no fun at all. Not to be mean, but we are supposed to hit 60 today. We've been in the 40's all week and teens overnight. I'm looking forward to some warmer weather. We are back to snow on Sunday.

Lori-Wow, it sounds like you have a nice plan laid out. Congrats on all the PT business and new w/o clothes. How do you like training your in-laws? I would look at your lululemon purchase this way, I have a new job and need the appropriate clothes. An extra $500/week is awesome! As far as your slow loser....I'm one of those too. I weigh in today after following the program for the past week. She needs to drink a ton of water and eat a lot of veggies as snacks.

Hi LauraR, LauraT, and Jacque.

I am pretty sure I have bronchitis :mad:and yes I am TICKED!! .. # 1 dont have time to be sick #2 I have plans this weekend #3 DH is off #4 I DONT HAVE TIME TO BE SICK!!!! :mad: ugh

Wendy - according to the news you are super snowed in - YIKES - thinkNJ and NY are asking for FEMA money b/c they are already over budget for the "snow" :confused: the images look feirce .. yikes~ hope DS is feeling better today!

Lori - WTG on the PT sessions .. wonderful!! and your house sounded insane ystdy - :p - I am feeling like CRAP .. dang it .. DH and I were planning on going gambling sometime this weekend .. I WILL FEEL BETTER dang it!!!

DI - boo me and you both are under the weather .. DANG IT .. soooo not fair!!!

I wouldnt make it thru that .. we will see the "nyquill hangover" improves any this afternoon ... ok .. better try to go muddle thru the day .. have a great one!
 
Hi Girls

Quick checkin. My manager is in a meeting and I am hoping he stays in there until I get this posted.

Its started to snow here and the wind is blowing toward the building. My toes are froze and all I can hear is the hollowing of the wind! I hate winter so much!!!!

Today's workout ended up being a run mixed in with legs from HR. It was a nice workout.

Wendy** Yes...I think you caught on to me. Unfortunately this is one of those situations where my husband doesn't say anything. He doesn't get mad at me for spending money and he doesn't even say "do you think you have enough now"? So...he isn't helping at all....really, its his fault! LOL Good for you getting ahead of yourself!

Diana** I am probably bring in even more then that, probably closer to $650 but I keep the expecting less so that I don't get disappointed when people cancel. OR I don't depend on it for anything. Hope your stuffy nose doesn't amount to anything!!!

Laura** Hope you are feeling better!! Its hard to stay away from those bugs this time of year. Seems like everyone has something!

I may bbl tonight. I have a girls rumolli/hot tub night...should be fun!

Lori:)
 
I am having no end of bad luck with the snow today ladies. Go over to FB and read my rants...I gotta go try to unstick my car....UGH!:rolleyes:

BBL~
 
Okay, car is unstuck and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Yay.

Lori:: LOL, your DH and my DH sound like they may have very similar personalities. I don't think my DH has EVER complained about anything I've purchased even when I go on my online shopping sprees and seem to have something delivered every week! :D

Diana:: 60 degrees? Really? You suck! LOL ;):p:D Jeez, we are barely gonna thaw out around here before another storm hits! What is going on!?!?!? :confused:
 
Hey there girls !

Still kinda hit and miss with my life but after forgetting my Melatonin a couple times I finally remembered last night and slept for more than a few hours for the first time in nearly a week ! Felt good and so though I am so far behind and forgetting things at work is causing me more work (UGH times 2!) I did half of IMax 3. I have slacked so much that I have no stamina at all. Have used my Polar HRM and even in a half hour workout (forgot it for the w/u) I hit 300 cals with a steady HR of at least 135 - 160. So sitting here by my lonely while DH is at hockey (darn :p) and figured I'd pop in.

Wendy - snow snow snow - have to say we've hit 70 the past 2 days but I've been office-bound and haven't been out to enjoy it! :mad: Finally this week no ice to scrape off before I head to work. So is Joey better? and you are feeling Okie Dokie and didn't catch it?

Lori - LOL about all your lulu lemon, nice you have the extra $, and my DH wouldn't say anything either. I am the accountant and make it all work, even with his Hot Wheels purchases when he wasn't working. Nice when spouses don't have to worry about financial issues - seems that is a big marriage breaker. LOL when we opened new bank accounts this past weekend and the girl tried to get us to consolidate our credit cards - we told her there was nothing to consolidate. Then she said, we can give you free accounts if you have a mortgage balance high enough, of course we couldn't qualify. We just aren't great for banks or credit cards making $ off of us ! :D

Diana - Feeling any better today? How are things at work going for you lately? Any good news on the training front? You sound like me, melatonin for a night or two and I am usually good. Think I'll go for it one more night - I can't believe how energetic I was today ! Don't you (or didn't you) have your check up to determine if high impact is OK soon? Are you going to start running a little again?

Poochy - Sorry you aren't feeling too well ! Power of positive thinking will scare the bee gee bees out of the bug that attacked you !
<<< POOF ! >>>, is it gone now? :p So interesting no DOMS for you lately, what is going on girl?

Laura - Wow loads of interesting things you have in your life. I enjoyed hearing how you are out in the 'boonies' and how your kids get to live their lives. Reminded me so much of my childhood - even though we lived in a tract home, we were in a little niche of a valley and surrounded with open fields or fruit tree groves. Made for loads of fun with the creeks & building forts to swinging on huge eucalyptus trees or riding in bikes in the fields making jumps and catching gopher snakes. Oh does that sound fun. My kids lived a such a 'sheltered' life that the first time we went camping - they were teens - they got such a kick out of it and thought it was so cool ! What has technology done to the good ol' days? Hope you had a great trip - nice job on your running BTW. I am attempting to get back to it a bit - need the extra cardio and running helps me slim down.

Angie - was good to see you pop in the other day !

Time to get a moving . . . will probably be back sometime tomorrow . . . nitey nite.
