Good Morning!

Quick check in....I have been busy the last couple of days and haven't had a chance to check in. I am awake for a early workout session, then at 10 DH is hosting a run/walk fundraiser....then it's my nieces b-day party and another workout session at 1:30! Busy...busy! Just wanted to let you all know that I am alive and hopefully I will come back later today.

Good Morning Girls.

I was last to post last night so go check it out if you haven't already.

Well, surprisingly enough I am not sore like I thought I would be from MIS. Not even close. Ofcourse, I have only been up for 30 mins. Things could change by this afternoon! :eek:

Today's work out is cardio and my plan (so far) is to do 4DS Double Cardio (Step). I need to learn HIS (well, TRY to anyway!lol) and can review LIS while I'm at it. It's the weekend so I have the time to rewind HIS as much as I want!

Had a good day of alone time y'day (love my new jeans!) but ended up in a bit of a tiff with a friend at the end of the day that put a damper on it for me. :( Then to make things even MORE FUN (note the sarcasm here!), my evening plans got cancelled!!! DH had plans to go out with the boys so I sat home alone w/no child on a saturday, drank a glass of wine and watched a movie that ended up making me bawl my eyes out. :rolleyes: I could have guilted DH into taking me out instead because he told me he felt bad going out but he only made plans with his friends because I had plans with MY friend. Not his fault she cancelled on me, right?

Lori:: Enjoy your w/o and the day ahead busy bee! Hope you have a minute to catch up with us later!:)

Ok, off to get foffee #2 and then a snack and start my w/o I think!
BBL!

Hi ladies,

Did everyone remember to set their clocks back an hour????? Not sure if Lori has to do that, those Canadians do things their own way!:D

No workout to report for yesterday. I had a good day, went to a football game, took my older boys shopping, did a ton of laundry and watched part of the avs game. Today will be cardio and weights! STS C&B and KPC. I didn't have any DOMs from STS legs, quite surprised by that. My knee is still not right and actually started hurting last night. I'm hopefull that is getting better.

Lori-you have a busy day ahead of you. Although it's busy, remember you are training...yaaaayyy...this is a good start to your business.

Wendy-MIS is goodie for sure. Back in the day I did this w/o on a regular basis using pretty heavy weights...and I was at my goal weight or even a bit lighter. Nice to get some new jeans that fit perfectly. Enjoy your HIS/LIS combo today. I'm hoping to get back to tonique soon, when I'm not afraid of hurting my knee.

Jacque-how did the Sharks do last night? The Avs beat the Dallas Stars last night 5-0!!! I watched part of the game and then spent the rest of the time trying to set up my recordings on our new Dish dvr's.

Good morning ladies !

Woot Woot an extra hour of sleep (actually will probably turn out to be play time) since my "internal clock" is still the same. :p Ended up feeling very very achy in the hips y'day (after my 4 hour soak/fiction novel read). Walk to the "Shark Tank" was much slower than normal. Usually DH has to catch up with me . . . last night he kept waiting for me. Popped some naproxen at the game and was a little better back to the car but this AM they are pretty sore. Not sure what I'll do today but it will be some of cardio.

Lori - good to hear things are going well for you, some fun, some work and your own w/o's. ITA with Diana that the training of others seems to be starting off very well for you. LOL that I heard we have a mary just 10 miles up the road - thought of you for sure. I was thinking while on the TM, ran slow since I stayed on for an hour, and was trying to imagine that at my pace it would take me 5 hours + to finish ! :eek: I'l probably do a half in the time you do a full. Hope you have time to "smell the flowers" a bit soon . . .

Wendy - I think I'll check to see if we still have a Lucky at our outlets. I saw an employment ad for one about 6 months ago but rarely go shopping so don't know where it is (we have 5 phases separated by multiple streets) or whether it is still here (they come and go so quickly). If it is still here I'll call to check it out. Thanks for the info. Good to hear you found a couple pairs you like. I have a couple different ones but one pair is too short with shoes and another has the fade line down the thigh (which is not my fave but I got them cuz they fit me so well). DH likes my back end in the other pair :rolleyes: so perhaps I'll see if I can find another that is similar. I always get my DOMS about 24+ hours after my workout - I bet you'll feel it a little later . . . ;)

Diana - Yes, TG the Sharks won . . . with out Joe Thornton no less. He was suspended for 2 games due to "trying to take another guy's head off". While returning to the rink from the penalty box the last game he ran over someone from the other team and, even though the guy returned to the ice and played the remainder of the game, Joe was suspended. It was not intentional but one of those subjective calls . . . we'll see what repercussions come from that. Great job AVS - over Dallas no less ! ! ! Woot Woot ! They are a hard team for us to beat though I haven't seen them play this year yet. Have fun with your programming and workout today.

We are babysitting our next door neighbor doggie again for a week. Bright fun for my spirits - he is adorable. I'll try to take a pic and post on FB - haven't been there in ages !

Until later . . .
 
Hi Ladies,

I completed STS CST, and 95% of KPC. My knee injury causes me to put more pressure on my forefoot, after about 40 minutes my foot is killing me. It was hurting so bad after the first combo that I did the ab work to get the pressure off my forefoot. Then I went back and did combo 2 but the knee and the foot came back so I just stopped. I'm definitely going to look into the surgery for my foot. It's obvious to me that it is getting worse. Also, my knee should heal quite nicely if I have to off my foot.:p I can kill two birds with one stone.

Jacque-hopefully cardio will work out some of the stiffness/soreness. Glad to hear the Sharks won!

Well I need to get showered and make a grocery list, go through coupons etc.
 
Hola tambien (again) !

Wow, that reminds me I should start studying my Spanish again ! Great rainy day for that ! :p

Back from retail therapy with 2 pairs of Lucky's in the wash ! Great sale, made them the same price I paid when I bought my others at Costco but these have fancier pockets ! ;) And I got one black pair which I can wear to work. Thanks for the heads up Wendy ! :D

Diana - sorry about the pains you are having. Good attitude about the surgery though. I am getting better and better at listening to my body and letting it heal when it needs to. Hard but it works out in the end.

Think I want to play a bit more before I work out so just ate some leftovers and will figure out what I want to do cardio wise a little later. The legs are getting better so may attempt another TM run. I'd love to get back to it - perhaps a training plan for a 10K . . . seems like a good deal of running and it helps melt my pudgies away . . . or at least it did the last time I did it. Hopefully the hormonal changes haven't changed that for me. Otherwise maybe just CC's for a week and then a few times a week for cardio. Contemplating 2 a days with a short cardio in the AM and my regular workout in the evenings. Guess I should get consistent first though. Need to set realistic goals here ! :rolleyes:

Off to play for a bit . . .
 
Hola Chicas.

My work out was fun. I spent about 30 mins on the HIS combos. I still need practice though. Especially on combo 3! :eek: After that I did LIS in full. FUN stuff! :)

Went out to breakfast with DH. Pancakes and porkroll. Not good for the waistline but soooo yummy! Then we went shopping! DH wanted to go back to the outlets since he wasn't with my y'day. Who was I to say no? ;) I picked up a pair of over the knee (thigh hi) hi heeled black boots. They are hawt hawt hawt! DH has wanted me to buy a pair for a long time now but I have trouble with boots because they are often cut too narrow for my calves. I got lucky today I guess. On the way home from the outlets we stopped in a local strip mall. I picked up a white vest (jacket) with faux greyish fur lining inside. Looks very nice and feels AWESOME. It was on sale for $20. I couldn't leave it there! I wear my black one all the time! Then I picked up more of the Bare Minerals make up that I use (mineral vail powder-it's awesome). As you can see it's been quite the shopping weekend for me! :D

We just got home but in a little while I think we will be heading out to a bar for a couple of drinks. Football will be on there. DH is gonna watch it either way so I might as well make the best of it and hang out and have a drink with him while he watches.

Gonna go freshen up now. I'll probably be back later to catch up on personals. We won't be staying out late.

Later Girls!
 
Hi Girls,

Sounds like everyone as been shopping!!!:) The only thing I am shopping for is Christmas gifts!

The race went over quit well. I was the 2nd girl to finish.... I had a girl on my heels for the first km then she zoomed by but was always in my view. I didn't have it in me to catch up to her...nor did I care do. I did win a prize for the most money raised:D I liked that! I have had a bad belly ever since though. I guess it had something to do with running faster then I am use to and eating chili after at a b-day party. I took a nice hour long nap though...I feel better but my stomach is still not right.

Wendy** Congrats on the awesome sales!:p Sorry last night didn't work out the way you wanted. I wanted to stay home by myself the other night and watch sex and the city 2 but that didn't happen. Maybe tonight though...although its not sensible to watch that while DD is roaming around and DH probably won't want to watch it. I never did get the hang of LIS and HIS.

Diana** Did you start your holiday melt down class yet? How did it go? Everything is going well with my PT thus far. I went to a hockey game last night when I really wanted to stay home and do some studying!:mad: I figured DS would like to go.

Jacque** My running partner was talking about another mary in May, I think she has lost it. I told her I wasn't doing any this spring b/c we are going to FL in April and early May. I can't do it all. I think she may have chosen to forget! Maybe I will come your way someday and do one:) and crash at your house;)

So the 4 new workouts I ordered were the new ones and I thought they were being shipped on the 31st? I haven't found (not that I have looked real hard) any update on the shipping date. I don't think anyone as them yet, do they?

Lori:)
