<--- Free at last, free at last...

[buffettgirl]

<---is VERY impressed with Amy and Melissa's workouts
<---rarely does more than one workout
<---never mish moshes
<---would consider snowshoeing as the day's workout and NEVER tack on a mere Kickmax etc.
<---wonders how you all do it?
<---finds oneself feeling fat and slothful
<---sighes

<-- tells Melissa <-- didn't overdo yesterday, <-- broke them up into morning and afternoon workouts, with a nice big lunch in between

[buffettgirl]

<---jumps back into thread after lunch of yummy pea soup and not so yummy orange

[Fit_mommy]

<---waves howdy to all ^^^ and vvv!
<---forgot to mention earlier that <---is sitting in <---new computer chair that <---got for Christmas right now!
<---'s DH FINALLY put it together yesterday!
<---is getting ready to throw on work out clothes and get to it!
<---just finished dusting, washing dishes and cleaning kitchen counters.
<---thinks Shelley would have had MUCH more fun doing that than <---did!
<---used this new dusting gadget put out by EndDust that <---bought at grocery store yesterday.
<---thinks it is quite useful for dusting tv's, ceiling fans and other assorted spots that are a pain to dust in the "conventional" manner.
<---is enjoying the last sips of a cup of coffee right now.
<---hopes everyone is tolerating Wonderfulday with a smile.

 

[ldy_solana]

[amyg]

<-- wonders what that thing is that Wendy is talking about... "dusting"?!???
<-- is glad Wendy likes her new chair!!
<-- thinks it is wonderful when DHs finally do stuff like that
<-- can't use the computer chair now, as Gracie is there instead, purring and getting loves from her mom
<--'s DH says Gracie is hungry
<-- is off to give Gracie more food!!

 

[nancy324]

<--waves "hi!"
<--says wow, what a fun day you had yesterday Melissa!!
<--would LOVE to try snowshoeing and all the other stuff Melissa did yesterday
<--tells Melissa that <-- laughed hysterically when <-- read Melissa's email but was too busy to write back because of Mom's birthday party but write soon
<--joins Robin in feeling slothful this weekend
<--lolled around in bed all morning and thinks it's an accomplishment to now be sitting upright
<--says Mom had a great time at her 70th birthday party and it was worth being too tired to do anything today
<--says the food and wine last night was AWESOME
<--pigged out and had 3 courses:
<--appetizer was crispy herb crusted oysters with micro greens, sliced red onions and roasted red and yellow peppers in a roasted garlic, cornichon and herb vinaigrette
<--then had seasonal greens tossed with julienne Belgian endive, sliced red onions and tomato concasse in a balsamic herb vinaigrette
<--then ordered pan roasted monkfish with bay scallops and mussels, chipolte chili pepper angel hair pasta, roasted red and yellow peppers, and sundried tomatoes in a tomato shellfish broth
<--ATE EVERY DROP
<--had to skip dessert though

 

[Pellmel]

<---thinks Nancy's meal sounds DELISH and that is an event for a big fat spurge
<---is not trying to figure out how to make lowfat peanut butter taste like a crispy pan fried oyster
<---love, love, loves oysters prepared any way or raw!
<---loves monkfish, too, but they don't have it in the west

Melissa

Keep your head in line. Your butt will follow.

[nancy324]

<--tells Melissa that <-- was the only one who ordered an appetizer AND a salad AND a main course and ate every bite :9
<--and was doing it while Melissa was showshoeing and working out
<--should feel guilty, but doesn't }(

 

[ElaineP]

<--must go finish cleaning and laundry
<--drive son to friend's house
<--need to find some fun for 4 year old

<--jumps out of thread

Elaine

 

[buffettgirl]

<---says hi to fellow buggie Elaine
<---drools at Nancy's menu, and <---doesn't even like oysters
<---thinks may have to include some bicep work after RS this afternoon, since that seems to be the body part of choice today
<---thankful only hour and a half left at work
<---is sooooo boooorrrreeeedddd today

 

[andtckrtoo]

<--- Waves hello to everyone in Catheland
<--- wonders why <--- has to work when DH and the girls have off today.
<--- pouts
<--- jaw is dropping at Amy's workout.
<--- did HCE # 3 with the idea that <--- would also do MIS Upper Body only on Saturday.
<--- Could barely move after HCE # 3 and decided to skip MIS Upper Body.
<--- oddly enough did RS Sunday.
<--- is taking today off as <--- is major sore and loving it!
<--- hopes Amy has a blast with RS.
<--- thinks Nancy's meal sounds incredible!
<--- is also thinking of Annette and is keeping Annette's mom in prayers.
<--- wants to go snowshoeing instead of working.
<--- must get back to work!

 

[nancy324]

<--wonders why Christine has to work today?
<--forgot to tell allwildgirl how much <-- appreciates the title of today's thread
<--was around while MLK was still alive and remembers his great speech
<--is trying decide whether to workout today or go shopping }(
<--that is, assuming <-- can even get out of this chair

 

[amyg]

<-- didn't realize how hungry <-- is until <-- read Nancy's post
<-- is sorry Christine is working
<-- is glad at least Christine is working on a gloomy day around here, it could be sunny and great and that would be worst
<-- wants to be on a trampoline with a 4 year old, that sounds fun!
<-- thinks kids SOUND like fun, but expects there is a lot you moms don't tell <-- ;-)
<-- realized <-- will be at Chronicles of Narnia at 1:15 on a non-school day
<-- is now preparing to be chatterboxed during the whole movie
<-- will be eating nasty movie popcorn through the whole thing, so doubt it will matter!!! }(
<-- is off to attempt RS

 

[allwildgirl]

<--- tells Nancy that if she's out shopping and see a nice track suit-ish kind of thing, not velour, not pink, with nothing like "Princess" plastered across the butt, to please pick it up for <--- and she'll be reimbursed
<--- needs help with shopping as she so obviously can't do it herself
<--- is craving something sweet
<--- will eat a piece of gum
<--- is determined not to give into the demon chocolates
<--- also thinks Nancy's menu sounds scrumptious even though she doesn't like oysters

 

[nancy324]

<--totally sympathizes with Shelley on her shopping experience
<--tells Shelley that <-- also isn't very good at shopping
<-- is very picky and often has to go to 10 stores before <-- buys one thing x(
<--thinks shopping is the single most time-consuming activity on earth!
<--tells everyone who doesn't like oysters that they would have liked these oysters because they didn't even resemble oysters and tasted out of this world!
(<--says that the menu was actually very varied, but that <-- has a tendency to always order the same kinds of fish, veggie and vinegrette-oriented dishes)
<--is still glued to the chair

 

[andtckrtoo]

<--- hopes Amy has fun with RS.
<--- begs Amy to give first impression
<--- has to work because <--- works for a company owned by Brazilians who do not understand the importance of MLK, Jr.
<--- does not remember hearing the speech (<--- was alive but a toddler), but does remember living through the transformation.
<--- is very grateful for what people went through to make <--- a better place for everyone.
<--- Will be seeing Narnia next week <--- cannot wait!!
<--- is going to lunch with the girls in the office today, so not all is lost!
