Morning Maniacs -

Off to do weights........be back in a bit. I think I'm going to try the full body Cathe mix Diane Sue put together for me.
 
Good Morning Maniacs!!!

Well today is gonna be a leg day. Will figure it out. Working abs too. Oh yeah, gotta finish working my tri's. I was so dang tired last night after bicep work that I fell onto my bed and nearly fell asleep. Dogs wouldn't let me though.

Lora,

Thanks for the villianess update last night. Was waiting for that soap to come out. Ordered 2 and then smashing pumpkin.
ETA: Brooke sent me a sample of Black Out last order. GOSH...that one is sooooooooooooooooooo good. When was that one out? I hope she will bring it back. So love it.
 
Good morning
Last night I did butts and guts floor work then HIS and LIS.
Lora do you mind sending me DS Total body premix?
Today is my rest day
Take Care Ladies:)

I was supposed to run with my cousin this morning, but Chase had a fever so I kept him home from school. Not sure what I will do today. Should do arms and abs, plus something?? My hips are sore from my WO yesterday. I really wanna do some yoga.

Char- so mant times I wanna just fall over and sleep, but kids, not dogs, keep me up!!! lol

I ended up doing Diane Sue's 4-Day Split Cathe Premix - I don't think I went heavy enough on some of the exercises...so I'm a bit bummed about that. I then added on some Bootcamp Drills (about 10 minutes or so)and for the cool down, I boxed with Brooklyn cuz she came over and was batting at me wanting to box. Then I did the stretch. Workout was 1 hour and 23 minutes and I burned 490 calories.

I then did Yoga Complete for Everybody - Neck Practice 20" and Dealing with Change Practice 25".

I'm glad everyone's sleeping so well around here.........cuz I'm sure not one of them! I can't fall asleep for nothing....need to be on a schedule. Too much changing of going to bed times, etc.....is not good for people with chronic insomnia. I'm also getting too much sleep cuz I'm not getting out of bed in the morning....so it makes it harder for me to fall asleep cuz I never get tired when I get 6 hours of sleep a night!! Too much sleep for me.

Randi - This premix will take about 60" to get done. HIS W/U, HIS round 1, LIS round 1, LIS round 4, KB round 2, Boot camp round 4, KB round 4, KB core and KB stretch. Diane Sue put it together for me.

Toasty - Black Out has never been released...so maybe it's an up and coming. Yes, Jai Mahal sounds good, doesn't it?

Have great workouts everyone.

Where's Deb been?
 
I did my workout early this morning. I have lots to do and took my grandchildren to their schools. 3 schools to stop at. I woke up at 4 am. Tried to sleep a little longer as I am really dragging. It did not work. Someone called with a wrong number at 12:30am x(
I started my workout with Kelly Coffey's Cardio Sculpt Step workout doing the premix cardio only and stopping at the abs, then I did the whole cardio sculpting workout omitting the w/up and stretch and followed it with the Dome workout from Amy's Hi/Lo Dome. I think I got a pretty good overall workout in:) Got to get out and run errands and come back and see what I can accomplish today.

Lora, I have not been sleeping well at all. My mind has been to busy or something:( I need to go over to Villainess and get me some stuf:)

Diane Sue,

Go to BPAL forums, under Twilight Lab Alchemy, you will find, "Nocturne". I just ordered some. It really has something in it that makes you drowsy. I just ordered it and have to say it works.
 
Lora,

Do you try the body scrubs off villianess? If so,which one is best? Do you think they are better then the soap or the same?

O.k., this is what I ordered so far:

soaps
tea
vitamins and retinol cream, cucumber cream, collagen cream (LMAO)
perfumes
something else, and I can't remember. lol

I am having a crisis now turning 40. Lawdy! lol
 
Diane Sue,

I got a feeling that Jai Mahal soap is going be "da bomb" so I got two. I need more lotion as well. My skin has been very dry and itchy lately due to lack of moisture. Must drink more water as well.
 
Diane Sue - look under Somnus at BPAL and you will see an entire line of sleep oils.......but I think I sent you a couple samples before. I hope you like the Jai Mahal....as I haven't actually sniffed it but I think it sounds good from the description. I have tried Gloop and Grandpa Joe before and like those.

Just got my BPAL order. I'm going over Mom's to make samples up and packs to sell.........my second job!!

Toasty - The Shivering Boy is amazing. It sort of reminds me of Snow White but if Snow White had a little baby brother! La Befana smells like those little violet candies. El Dia Del Reyes (or whatever) smells just like Mexican Chocolate...not sure I want to smell like this, but it isn't too far into the drydown yet. Chanuykah (spelling??) ....not sure ...sort of sweet/nutty....not sure what I'm smelling yet....not sure about this one yet. The rest of them are too wet to give an accurate sniff test.........and I ran out of room on my arms and hands!!
 
Lora,

Oh, they sound good. I was gonna get Shivering Boy, but decided not too. Now I heard on the reviews Snowstorm smells like Vicks Vapor Rub. If so, I will sell it and get Shivering and I think I might want El Dia Del Reyes as well. La Befana sounds good too. Now your teasing me. :p I haven't gotten a C&S for my Yules yet. Should be coming soon though.
 
Lora,

I just ordered La Befana. Now I got to go and sell off one of my other perfumes to cover for the price. lol. Think it will be Midnight Kiss as I like it, but not enough to have a big bottle.

I have alot of time on my hands today, can't ya'll tell??? LOL! It is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now I gotta workout.
 
Charlotte, that stuff does sound like it will be really good. I haven't tried the smooch before so thought that I would see how I like it. I don't think I would be using an exfoliating scrub every bath though. My skin has been really dry and ichy too. I slather with body butters all of the time. You would think since I carry water around with me everywhere that would not be a problem. Sounds like you are going to have fun with all of your goodies.

Lora, yes you did send me two sleep oils. Not sure if they helped or not. I would have those nights where I would sleep and thought may it was just because I was so darned tired. I would put them on and put a couple of drops in our nightlight diffuser. I kind of liked the one that smelled sort of like earl grey tea:) I kinnd of wanted the marshmallow scent too but thought I had ordered enough stuff lately to last a little while:)

Suz, is that a picture of one of your birds? Very pretty colors. Good luck at the neurologist.

Hey Ladies.

Completed my workout for the day EXCEPT abs. Here is what I did:

300 walking lunges with 40# db's

Tricep work:

Overhead Ext with 35# db 3 sets/8
Close Grip w/bb 70# 3 sets 5/8/6 (I think the determination kicked in on second set) lol. Was hard to do plus my biceps are sore now from yesterday.

Got to run into the tub and scrub a dub dub and pick up my check from Tastee Greez (not looking forward to going down there after the chaos).
 
Hello Ladies

I hope you don't mind me posting on your thread, but I love to read your routines everyday and I was curious about the oils you are using for the insomnia.

I suffer with insomnia and have recently been prescribed some sleeping tablets from my doctor. However I would very much like to try the oils that you have suggested. Please could you advise what BPAL is and is it an internet site. I live in the UK and wondered if the suppliers you use deliver to the uk?

I hope you don't mind me asking.

Take care and happy workouts.
Laura

Hi Laura -- just don't blame us when you get addicted to the wonderful world of BPAL. The owner, Beth, is a true scent genius. Don't let the gothic overtones of the site scare you away, as she makes blends for most every one and tons of formulations. BPAL is short for Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab. The website is www.blackphoenixalchemylab.com and the forum is BPAL.org. The Somnus oils are the sleep oils. Just look at the menu for Somnus. There are many customers from the UK on the Forum and I know she ships to the UK and Candada, etc. Happy Shopping..........and thanks for popping in.
 
Toasty - I have the Decadence scrub.....but it's more like a moisturizing scrub. I also have the Scintillating Smooch which is the sugar scrub one and its yummy and I have Sugar Buzz Smooch. I don't use them that often cuz I'm lazy and I never grab them before I enter the bathroom...........as I have to store them in a cabinet down in the basement.

I got a job interview thru the temp service. I go tomorrow morning and I work tomorrow afternoon. I feel like that's all I do is interview! The funny thing is ......is that it's with the very first doctor I worked for in the medical field back in 1980. He's a colon and rectal surgeon and was actually my father's doctor back when my father was sick with terminal rectal cancer. His wife, Marilyn, is the person who is interviewing me tomorrow and she's the one who trained me years ago. It is for front office....which is exactly what I did back in 1980. This is weird!
 
Laura,

Nocturne is much stronger then the somnuous from what I hear. If you go to the BPAL forum and scroll down to Twilight Alchemy Lab, and then continue to scroll down from there, you will find it as Nocturne is from the Twilight Alchemy Lab/BPAL. You will also get to read others opinions on it thru the reviews.
If you go directly to www.twilightalchemylab.com you will be instructed on how to pay (which is at bottom of page there). I believe they only accept paypal.

Charlotte~~
