Damage Control...Sunday

Good Morning Girls. :)

Well I was way short on time by the time I got my arse in gear and ready to work out y'day. Ended up only having about 45 minutes so I did about 30 minutes of the new k/b dvd I got along with the ab work on it.

Today should be an Insanity work out. I have a busy day again but Shaun is very good at kickin' my azz in 40 mins so that should work out just fine! ;) No Jillian again today I'm thinkin'... :(

Today's to do list includes food shopping, taking my dog to the vet and laundry as well as doing something fun with DS hopefully. DH has to work so it's just me and the boy again today.
 
Diana:: Yup, LBB has a big cardio factor in it. The warm up is a nice little cardio routine in itself! Glad you liked it. I am a fan as well! I am looking forward to giving STS another shot as well. :) As for the millions of push ups, I am not against doing them on my knees. Hell, I'll skip some if I have to! I am also considering not messing with all of the pull ups. I know how great pull ups are for you and had great results when I did them all in the X but it's a PITA for me to use the bar. I can't close the door to my work out room then and considering I work out at 5am these days and am right next door to my sleeping DH, that's not a good thing! :rolleyes: I may just sub in another back exercise. Not sure yet.

Jacque:: Yes, STS TB sure does get the heart rate up. Fast mover! I loved it. Just have to get my weight selections right. Go to collage right now and make a wish list with that $75.00 you will save on car insurance!;)

Hello ladies !

Well this AM my back is very achy and I can't seem to loosen it up. Used the heating pad, got up to tidy the kitchen and stretched in between, layed back down for a bit and still no go. Thinking I'll do some other stuff and see if it will loosen - not sure about Intensity. Think last time it worked itself out enought to make the w/o worthwhile - so guessing it will be later today. We got some fresh crab for dinner so not much to do for that tonight.

Wendy - Oh yes Shaun can kick some behind in less than 40 min for me ! :p You have a full plate today . . . I need to do some household stuff too, not sure I will do it though. :rolleyes: Wanted to run up to see the GS's but they are out of town - not sure when they are coming back. May go up anyway. Decisions . . . decisions . . .

Laura - Woo Hoo talk about kicking some behind ! Congrats on the win y'day, or shall I say "slaughter" ? ? ? :p Hope you got your workout in and enjoyed the company.

Diana - did you get all accomplished y'day that you had planned? I didn't ! :eek:

Off and running to make some decisions ... :p
 
Jacque:: How's the back, you poor thing? :( So did you go up to your DS' house today?



Here it is, 15 minutes before I have to leave for the vet and still no work out. Looks like it's last on the list yet again. :( I WILL get it done though. Somehow!

When I went to the foodstore this morning I was checking out...everything was bagged and I had just run my card through the machine to pay when the power went out! :eek: I had to stand around for about 15 minutes waiting for it to come back up. They told me I had to re-swipe my card but it wouldn't take it. Kept saying "unauthorized". I used a different card finally and it went through. On the way home it occurred to me what the problem might have been so when I got home I checked my account and low and behold, the original charge went through! It wouldn't allow a second identical charge which is why it was "not authorized"! Now I have to go back to the GD store to get one of the charges reversed! :mad::rolleyes: BLEH. I will do that once DH is home so that I don't have to drag DS with me. I would bite the bullet and just would do it while I'm out going to the vet anyway but I'm not one for leaving animals alone in the car. ESPECIALLY not in my new car-well it's not exactly NEW anymore. Had it since May but it LOOKS new! :D


Alright, gotta be outta here in 10...off I go......

Hi ladies,

I actually got a lot accomplished yesterday. Of course not nearly enough, but am happy with what I got done. I went to my sister's house and decorated a couple stockings. I'm hosting xmas eve with my side of the family this yr. Step MIL has been weird since my dad passed away and doesn't have much to do with us kids anymore. However, Jerod and I stopped in to visit her for a bit and give her the invitation. She says she's coming, but I'm not going to hold my breath. I figure I can plan everything in another week, when I'm on medical leave. My sister and I will prepare all the food, it should be fun.

I was up until midnight last night and woke up around 6:30 this morning. I lazed in bed watching my recordings...OMG, Dexter is really getting good...until 11:00. I finally got my butt up and did KPC and managed the whole w/o. The last few times I've done this w/o, either my foot or knee would hurt too bad and I would have to stop....today I got through the whole thing! I loved it.

Wendy-sorry about the mishap at the store. I've ran into that same situation, but I was trying to buy the same thing at the same price and the system wouldn't let me. Probably best to go on your own and not have to worry about dragging Joey out again or leaving your dog in the car. I'm kind of surprised I don't have any lower body DOM's. I used a 50#BB and thought I would die during some parts of the w/o.

Jacque-hope your back feels better soon. Does working out help at all? I only say that because it warms and loosens the muscles. How do you get this mature driver's discount? I'm interested in looking into that, anything to save a buck right now. I need to shower and head into work. I will try giving you a call later from work.

Laura-So did Auburn win? I guess I could check it out real quick. Well I guess they did...here's what a heading I just came across: Auburn left no doubt in the SEC title game, defeating South Carolina 56-17 and punching their ticket to the BCS National Championship. You must be recovering from your celebration yesterday!

Lori-Where are you girl, working.....training????? Hope you are having a great weekend.

BOO HOO! :( Shaun didn't happen today. I am lucky ANYTHING happened today TBH. :rolleyes:

By the time we got out of the vet and got home, it was time for dinner, then my mom called, yadda yadda...my work out didn't get started until maybe 6:30 or so. I was/am tired and my core is on fire from y'day. Shaun was just NOT a good idea so I opted for Step and Intervals plus supermans and planks from S&H.

Weekends are usually my time to give the work outs a little extra but this weekend was quite the opposite. Just the way it works out sometimes I guess!

Tomorrow calls for High Reps. I have an extra work out done this week because I did cardio the day before starting the rotation so if I am up for HR in the morning I will do it. If not, I will rest and do it Tuesday. Intensity is the next work out so I can do that back to back with HR if I need to. Worst case is that my legs will be a bit sore but that wont' stop me! I'm a Cathlete! Hear me roar! LOL :D

Have a great night ladies.

Be back in the AM!
