Good Morning Peep,

Then I'll have to go thru and eat oops I mean sort thru all the candy!:eek::eek::eek:
I hope everyone has a great day. I'll check in later.
ellie :D:D:D
 
LOL at your title and your picture, Ellie. Have fun today.

I'm leaving work early to fit in a KB workout before leaving for VT. I'm also hoping to stop at the library and see if I can find a book on DVD that DH and I will both enjoy listening to.

I'll see you all Monday morning. Have a great weekend.
 
Hey ladies!! Happy Halloween!! I have a session with Katie this afternoon. I think I will do SZ or LM this morning!!

Robin, have a safe trip!! Hope you find that book.

Ellie, what a cute pic! I hope you all have fun today.
 
Hey, I'm back. And we had a great vacation.

I'll have to come back for personals after I've had a chance to catch up. We got back day before yesterday (late!), plus today is DS's birthday. Yep. He's my little pumpkin boy. :D

I'm happy to report that I kept up my running schedule while I was gone. Today I plugged in Imax2 and was able to give it 100%. So I think in the cardio category I actually gained ground instead of losing it while I was gone.

But the eating was not so clean. The place we stayed was all inclusive: every meal was a buffet! Yikes! I managed to do pretty well on AMOUNTS of food, limiting myself to one trip through each time. But there weren't always good, clean options. Also, the all inclusive extended to drinks--and when you have unlimited tropical fruit drinks just waiting on you to say the word, who can resist?! Actually, I was smiling all the way through Interval 9 today on the Pina Colada song since I drank quite a few of those myself last week! :)

I'm wafting beautiful tropical breezes from Africa to all of you cold PEEPers and your birds. :D
 
Jeepers Creepers, its Halloween for the Peepers:eek:

I'm a little sore from my KB session yesterday so today will be an easier w/o.

Robin~ My fellow birder! Glad to hear I'm not the only one. I just filled my feeders since the weather is getting cold. The heated birdbath works great and doesn't freeze as long as I plug it in! Have a safe trip to VT.

Catherine~ Have a good KB session. We started with functional mobility exercises first then I worked on deadlifts, suitcase deadlifts, swings (1&2 arm), and started snatches & presses. My lower back gets really achy so I wonder if I'm not bracing my core enough. Let us know how your session goes.

Ellie~ Cute pic!! Have a great time with all your Halloween fun:D

Laura~ Welcome back! Happy birthday to DS! Don't worry about your eating. You should enjoy yourself when on vacation especially at an all-inclusive;) You can get back on track now that your are home.

Heather~ My birds don't skate but I sure got a good laugh from your comment:D

Wendy~ Is Houdini going trick or treating? What is she dressing up as? I sure miss having little ones on Halloween.

Have a great weekend Peeps and don't eat too much candy:rolleyes:

Happy Halloween, Everyone! :)

This morning's workout was 4DS Shoulders and the abs from LIS step. I'm feeling very good, very happy, and ready for Trick-or-Treat tonight! One of Houdini's pals is coming over, and his parents, and we are going to order pizza and then take the kiddos out. Since they are both under two, I'm thinking about six houses should do it...LOL!

And Houdini discovered the joys of coloring yesterday with washable (HA! her hands are still green but I digress) markers! And then I found her coloring the inside of my closet door...And so the art around the house begins! LOL.

Ellie--Oh my gosh, I LOVE that photo of your family! Your boys are so cute! :)

Robin--Enjoy the weekend in Vermont and take pictures of the beautiful fall foliage for me...

Laura--Welcome back, friend! I agree with JJ--you need to enjoy the eating on vacation. We all need a break from routine once in awhile!

Catherine--Have fun with your KB session today!

JJ--Houdini is going out tonight as a piece of candy corn. I'll post pictures of it this weekend...

OK, I'll be back later. Have a great day!

:) Wendy
 
Laura, glad you had a good vacation!!!

JJ, I think I have the same problem with not engaging the core enough. Something to work on though!!

Wendy, can not wait to see pics of cute little Houdini dressed as candy corn :)

I did HLMB this morning. Didn't want to step as my neuroma in my left foot was acting up last night :( But I wanted to get in some light cardio before my session later.
 
Had a good KB session. She has us doing on some progressive exercises (mainly stretching) to work on hipflexor issues. She also taught us flip squats. I was afraid I was gonna come home with a few less teeth on that one. But once I got over the fear, it actually wasn't that bad. Oh and my clean is improving--woo hoo!!

I hope you all have had a fantastic day!!!
