Diana:: My mom sets up the coffee pot the evening before too. I can't be bothered. LOL I just get up, set 'er up and flip 'er in on in the morning. I'm only making 2 cups though so it doesn't take but 2 minutes to brew. Glad you slept in y'day morning. I slept in bit too this morning thanks to DS. I was able to stay in bed until about 6:30 this morning instead of getting up at or before 6am. *twirls finger* WOO HOO. 
Have fun getting your office set up. I like doing things like that.
Jacque:: Thanks for the great party suggestions to avoid over-eating the crap but it didn't work. I went NUTS I tell ya! Absolutely NUTS! I lost control of myself...TOTALLY! I drank FOUR smirnoff twists, ate TWO cheeseburgers plus doritos, macaroni salad, pork n beans, a small brownie and a small piece of chocolate cake for dessert! I'd have rather have eatn the 16 kisses the other day like Jen did! Funny thing is, I was quite full, but I didn't feel TOTALLY gross. I was actually a notch below that somehow...I don't know how though! Anyway, that being said, and adding in the medicine factor, I am NOT NOT NOT getting on the scale this morning AND I will be doing cardio today to try and help burn some of the crap off before it makes itself at home in my gut!
So when did your mom pass away if I may ask? My mom was around 36 when she lost her mom and her mom (my grandma whom I adored!!!) was only 66. She died after a nasty 2 year battle with cancer. So very sad. I miss her so much as does my mom. As you mentioned though, there are great memories which we both cherish. Unfortunately I was only 10 yrs old when she died so my memories are not as vivid as I would have liked.
Okay, sorry for going off on that depressing tangent!!! I'm done now!
Lori:: Welcome back, stranger! Somehow no matter what stage of life my little guy has been in, I have ALWAYS found time for the Cathe boards. Yes, I saw great strength benefits from CLX as well as increased definition and I was STARTING to see weight loss as well but then I got sick and now that's all messed up! I love CLX and after being spoiled by the short but super intense and effective work outs I am now unsure that I even want STS anymore. OH MY GOD! Did I just say that!?!?! LOL Seriously though...I adore Cathe and her work outs are excellent but I am just thinking back to P90X. I got awesome results with it but have never been able to get through a 2nd complete round because the work outs are just so long and exhausting. I also have P90X+ which I haven't committed to finishing even ONCE yet and those work outs are shorter! I think that needs to be my next long term rotation committment goal. So anyway, I preordered the shock cardio which sounds fab but I am seriously giving second thoughts to the weight program. Lotsa money for something I'm thinking I won't be able to see through. If you didn't know, I cancelled my STS pre-order in favor of purchasing CLX because I know how I am....God, I am rambling today! Sorry!

Good Morning!
My head isn't tooooo big LOL But I probably should take something We had a good time last night. I didn't know that many people b/c they were mostly military. Some of our friends were around which was nice but I disappeared around 2'ish and went to bed Im sure I will get heat for that today.
We are going to my inlaws for brunch soon. I am looking forward to it. Maybe all the food will give me energy for a run later! Other then that, I have no plans for today.I should pick out a paint color for DS's room b/c my dad is going to paint it next week.
Wendy** I totally understand what you are saying about STS. I am on my 2nd attempt to finish it. I knew the 1st time around that I wasn't going to be able to finish it with the FL trip right in the middle of it. Then when I got home, I found it hard to get back into the swing of things. I haven't ordered the cardio workouts yet.....I should probably do that. It could be my b-day gift!
So I need to do a run and STS legs today...disc 6 I guess...Im not sure.
I should get ready to head out. I will bbl!

Running through (though I NEED to run for reals - just may do that today) to say I had a great relaxing day at the "Mushroom Mardi Gras" = local street faire) yesterday AFTER I did my STS C & B. I slept in today until after 8 which is about 2 or 3 hours for me !
Will BBL for a little catch up on the personals and my workout . . . So happy there is another day left for my chores this weekend - need to weed (there are more weeds than veggies or flowers !) but the back is a bit sore from walking yesterday so that will be tomorrow's chore !
See ya in a bit.

So this morning I ended up feeling HORRIBLE! I wanted to go shopping at Target and then hit the gym for my EXT session. I was getting ready around 9-9:30 in the morning when I quickly realized that it just wasn't gonna happen! My mouth had been bothering me a bit all morning (remenents of infection I am sure) but then I began to feel light-headed and jittery/shakey. I was afraid to drive for fear that I might pass out or something! I laid down on the couch for a while and then went back to bed and napped for 30 mins. Once again, I awoke a NEW WOMAN! WTH!?!
So I threw on clothes, fixed my hair and dashed out to Target around 11:30am while I had the window of opporunity. I ended up buying tinted moisturizer for myself. I love it. It's so much better then then regular self-tanning stuff. I also bought 2 pairs of obnoxiously bright colored capris (a purple pair and an orange pair). LOL I think they are cute though so I don't care. Very summery! Then I bought Joey a bunch of summer clothes that he desperately needed. Ofcourse, I picked up the wrong size in most of the tops so we have to go back a little later to do some exchanging.
When I returned from Target I still felt good so I moved on to a work out. I decided to do the Muscle Endurance upper body premix. Awesome work out! I was able to go heavier then Cathe on everything but biceps and the some of the tricep work. I atleast matched her on tri's. I started out with the same BB weight for bi's but had to drop down to 15# for the 2nd half of the set. I could be VERY sore tmrw! I skipped the ab section but may go back and do that along with some kind of cardio later in the day....
Lori: So did you get your STS work out done today? How was brunch with your inlaws?
*as she runs by at full speed* Hi Jacque...Bye Jacque...
Guess that's all for now. BBL!
