Good morning ladies..

Workout for me today is Disc 31 Chest and shoulders.....We have another busy day. Lauren has drawing lessons and then later this afternoon the kids have CCD and I have to teach CCD. Wow! Feels like last week flew by!

Talk to you later..
 
Hi Kathy! And all. Thinking about Joanne, of course, and sending hugs her way this Monday morning.

Kathy, do you know what you'll do when you're done with meso 3? I can't remember if you mentioned. Good luck with the teaching today!

It was a very stormy night here -- supposed to be stormy all week I think. Yesterday would have been cold for running -- even when we left the house it was still just 42 out there. I noticed because I saw another mom out running and noticed she was really bundled up, so I looked at my thermometer.

Yoga day for me -- I had Yoga for Happiness the Surf Edition here from netflix, so finally did that. 65 minutes and I wouldn't say it flew by, but it didn't really feel that long. Nice!

San Diego is starting to sound like a good idea. I hate to travel, but at least part of that is because I miss my workouts, and I certainly wouldn't be having that problem! :D

Hope everyone has a nice day. Chris, how was work last night? Waves to Hottie!
 
::grumble:: I don't know how I managed to get sick but I'm sick in a nasty way. My head is throbbing and my stomach and colon are at war...on top of my period. This sucks sucks sucks! I cancelled a tutoring session yesterday and it turns out the owner of the agency is suffering the same thing as well...except HE doesn't have his period on top of it all. it's also raining so no one knows how to drive in LA right now. If I didn't have a session with a girl today I wouldn't have even come in. I'm leaving around lunch. I don't know if I'll be well enough to work out but we'll see...maybe it'll cure me. ONE day of not cleaning on the weekend...I don't think there's a single room that isn't a disaster area right now. ::sigh::

Kathy -- I hope I'll catch up to you! I don't know how the weeks fly be as well.

Beth -- Joe is on board for San Diego though he wanted to know how many step classes there were. It'll be nice to see you there!

Back to my hole...
 
Hey girls!

Ah! It's Monday!

I started MESO 3 today, with DISC 25, Chest & Back. OMG, those weights were heavY! Pooped me out. I didn't even think the 1 and 1/2 minute rests were too much, that's how much it pooped me out! My chest, esp, was really feeling it. will be interested to see what the DOMS damage is tomorrow...

Actually had a quiet night at work last night! Amazing! Our census on our unit remained very low, and we only got one admission all night. Weird, since the entire hospital's census is high! Not sure why they left us alone. It's a sad place during the holiday season though. Not sure why, but it seems there are more deaths during this time of year. We had 3 people die over the weekend, and one was sure to go to heaven today. So depressing. I have to tell you about this really sweet kid that works with us though. He's 19, hispanic, from a messed up home, really. His mother was a drug addict, family involved in gangs, with murders, etc. He basically takes care of his family , and his mom. HE is THE sweetest kid. He's a Nurse's Aide on our floor. So nice to the patients. They all really love him. He had worked wed, thurs and fri nights, and on Saturday night, his day off, he went out with his buddies. Had had a few drinks, and ended up calling us at work in the middle of the night, saying he wanted to make sure we turned this patient (who was terminal and dying) towards the window so she could see the snow. She had told him she loved the snow. OMG, I have tears in my eyes NOW thinking about how sweet that was. ...

Tough time of year at work...

And all this made me think so much of Joanne. My heart breaks for her! Hope you're doing ok out there, Joanne!!

Kathy: I thought about you as I pushed heavy on the weights today!... Hope you have a good CCD class, that should be fun teaching!

Beth: Yay for yoga today! Sounds like a good one. I bet you're looking forward to STS tomorrow! Are you?? ... You realy should try running in the colder weather, it is exhilirating!! just make sure you dress in layers in case you need to strip off something. TRY IT!!

Hottie: Hope you feel better! You need to boost your immune system somehow, girl, you are always getting sick! ((hugs)) Don't push the workout today. doesn't sound like a wise choice if you're feeling so bad. And I can't beleve you are at work!!!

better go shower, and russle up some supper for the boys..they'll be bounding in the house from CCD in about 40 minutes!
 
Chris, that is the sweetest story about the guy calling to tell you to turn the patient to the snow!

Good going on the heavy weights, girl! I will run in the cold someday -- if it's cold this weekend! Sunday's are going to be my day to run, as long as I don't have to "run off" somewhere, haha.....

and yes! I'm excited to start STS again tomorrow!!

Hottie, feel better! But hopefully you've seen my mail by now......
