Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Fri March 23

Morning Maniacs -

I'm off to do some cardio, Fluidity and yoga. I'll be back later. I have a busy morning planned.

Suz - Pandora went back to the vet the day before yesterday for more fluids. She was not doing well and not eating or drinking and was severely dehydraded again. She's not bouncing back from it this time either. We're both very concerned. We hope we're not going to have to have her put down...but things aren't really going in the right direction at the moment. They can always turn around though. I've also been having more migraines than usual. Haven't even been taking Zomig, as I dont' have that many left for the month. The weather has been fluctuating here a lot....so I'm attributing mine to that?? Hang in there.

Last I heard Amber was very busy. Maybe life just got in the way. I don't know what happened to Janie though. Hmmmm... Come Back ladies.

I'll be back later.
 
Good Morning Maniacs!!!

Today is my challenge circuit, I think.;-) I have to get groceries too, go fax something in town, meet with fence guy later..packing? I will be busy.

Lora,

Think positive thoughts about Pandora. She can still pull thru this. Never too late and the direction can turn for the better.
So about oils...I think I have tried alot of the tal's so next thing I plan on buying is big bottles of: Osun, Himerus, Queen, French Love, Ravenous and Lolita. My utmost favorites. We are gonna be tight on money now so I don't know how I am gonna get them anytime soon, but my soaps are coming from BPAL and Villianess too. Did you order the new Villianess soaps?

Morning maniacs....

Deb, you are always delivering in the rain...LOL....It must be a friday thing for you....rain... I want some sun here...There were 45 MPH wind warnings from Ohio to Pa to W VA last night..

Char, i would dread moving. I can not imagine. I say have an auction , sell it all and buy new. LOL...


I am going to try a cardio coach tonite, if the legs finish unthawing. I may do legs tomorrow, but they are taking a hammering right now...

Well, the usual bath and go to work time.Hopefully my 2 women that hate eachother won't be into tan together. No cat fights....
Hopefully my new night time tanning girl did something. I had to yell at her her the 1st night. Did nothing,and i mean nothing, but watch TV. Not even run the sweeper ,and left every light on in the place.. I had to go in an the morning and do the stuff. I was not happy...

She will not be getting the i do something pay. She be getting the lazy rate... Oh well.

Check back...
 
Anne,

This house is gonna go to hell when FIL moves in. He won't clean. I asked him when and how and what he will use to clean floors..says last thing on his mind. I told him to hire a maid...$60 for the day. He looked confused when I mentioned it. lol. The house will come back to us to sell once again once he passes so I hope it won't get too out of control. I won't be around to help as much cuz will have bigger house to deal with, but I will try to help him when and if I can, ya know?

Sounds very entertaining where you work. I need some entertainment...but I am good at entertaining myself for now..tripping over things, catching people picking their nose, etc.

Can't stand lazy people.

Charlotte~~
 
I'm finally back. It's been a bad morning. Didn't have a good workout either.

I did Hip Hop Abs Level 2 and then Advanced Fluidity followed by Solar Yoga with Shiva. Workout was 1 hour 40 minutes and I burned 441 calories. (Actually took me longer than this with all the interruptions, so I estimated how long it should have taken, as well as the calorie count!)

I was very irritated trying to figure out how to do a lot of the Fluidity moves without the bar and making sure my form was correct. I guess maybe it's just cuz I was not as focused as I needed to be, as Pandora is getting worse and the DH and I argued in the midst of my workout about putting her to sleep. I guess I was in denial cuz after he left, I realized she is really bad. We're taking her to the Vet at noon.

Have a great workout and day everyone.
 
Morning Maniacs! I took the day off today. I worked my a$$ off all week and I just can't do any more. I want to do a weight workout sometime this morning. DH is coming home early from work and he and DS want to go on a bike ride later. Got Carma some new dog booties, cuz her feet can't handle the hard dirt. She is walking all funny in them. Doing the high step thing. ROFL! Must take a picture of this!

Lora- So sorry your cat isn't doing well again. It's so hard!

Char- Sounds like another busy day for you. I bet you can't wait to get all moved in. What will you new workout room be like, cuz you know that is the most important thing.:)

Debbie- It cracks me up how it rains like clock work on your days off. Have fun delivering Avon.

Anne- Your night time help sounds wonderful. lol. Give her the lazy pay for sure.

Hi to everyone who follows...

Gotta get some breakfast...starving this morning.

Bionics,

LMAO! My dogs don't like boots and such! I bought Speck some prissy outfits but she just stands in one spot and looks at me with a horrid expression! LMAO!

My workout room will be similiar to yours..in basement..all spread out. I won't be kicking my legs into the smith machine anymore...too crowded in my sunroom here.

Eating lunch now..chicken and brown spicy rice, broccoli and yogurt. Gonna do my workout soon. Gotta meet a fency guy around 4. lol

Charlotte~~
 
Lora,

Just wanted to say I got Shanghaied today..villianess soap. Smells really good. I think you would like it. Krakota smells like passion fruit so if anyone likes that smell then Krakota is for you. I think it is nice too, but Shanghaied is really up there on my list! Love it.

How is Pandora now?

Charlotte~~
 
Char- That's funny about Speck,lol. Carma should have been chihuahua, like Paris's Tinkerbell. lol. We'll have to see how these boots stay on her. I researched and think I bought the best ones. She has such thin foot pads. They just wear right off, even on short rides. You'll love having all that room inyour basement to workout in. It will really make a difference.

Oh! Your lunch sounds perfect! I'm comin' over! I'll bring the recovery drinks!

Hi ladies! No WOs for me yesterday and probably today too. I have taken a couple of vacation days from work to get some things done around the house that I don't have time or energy to do on the weekends. I am enjoying some Whole Foods Cashew Chicken with Basmati Rice while catching up on the latest. YUM! :9 I know it's not the healthiest 440 cals (double my normal Lean Cuisine meals) but it's got 20 g of protein and it's better than if I just indulged my vacation side and ordered it out!

Char & Dallys-All this talk of basements has me SO jealous!!! My dad is giving me a Weider gym in a few weeks and I think it will have to go in the garage! x( I guess the only time I will be using it is Spring and Fall...cause can you really see me using it in the garage in summer in the South....I guess it could be a gym and a sauna treatment at the same time?! LMAO! Or I could just smear myself with some kind of seaweed wrap stuff and try to lose some inches, too!

Dallys-ROFLMAO on the doggie shoes!! It is really sweet of you to do that, though. Maybe she will be so excited to go on the ride that she will forget at that point she is wearing them......sure....it could happen.

Deb-Sounds like you need to have a talk with God or Mother Nature or whoever the he!! is in charge over all the rain when you have to make deliveries! LOL! I can remember you talking about rain on Fridays since the days I was a lurker! :)

Okay ladies, back to painting the living room (deep gold...official name is Spanish Leather..(can't you just hear the sound of a whip cracking....or is it just me :) )! No time for daydreaming...must keep making progress! I love dark colors against the white moulding...really makes the color pop. I'll check in again in about an hour or two. Have been rocking out listening to some great tunes...Nickelback, Daughtry, Gwen Stefani, The Fray, Nelly Furtado, Fergie, Beyonce, Shakira...love the way the radio station is mixing it up today!

Jen
 
Anne-She will not be getting the i do something pay. She be getting the lazy rate... Oh well-ROFLMAO!!!! :) :) What is it with people who want something for nothing these days?!?! I just don't get it. One of the interview questions I LOVE to ask is-Define the words work ethic and describe yours. Isn't that an awesome question!!!!!!?! Feel free to swipe it for your next interview...sounds like you will be needing it soon! LOL!

Lora-Thinking about you....posted over at yoga. Just heartbroken over what you must be dealing with right now.


Jen
 
Hi ladies -just got home from the vet a bit ago. My baby's gone and we both miss her tons already. This is always so hard to go thru.

Charlotte -enjoy your Villainess. I haven't ordered any lately. I've got too much soap!

Thanks for all of the prayers for Pandora. I appreciate your support.

Lora I am so sorry for your loss. I have been reading everyday and praying everyday for Pandora-I am so sorry.

Sincerely,

Lisa
 
Lora - I'm so sorry to hear about Pandora. Hugs to you, girl.

Dallys - That picture cracked me up! How cute!

Yep, it rained again today while delivering Avon. Seems to be the norm for me anymore. It did quit by noon so the afternoon deliveries weren't so bad. Mud everywhere, though. My truck needs a good wash.
