Morning haters!

Wow, we have all turned quiet, haven't we? Where's the hate, people!!!???

Robin - where does your sister live again? Is it Washington state?

Michele - I'm very proud that you got your WHOLE workout done yesterday! We'll kick your butt if we see you in here before it's done every day;)

Diane - personally, I'd LOVE to hear about your pregnancy! Bring it, baby!

Corrie - it was so great to see you posting yesterday:) You need to dump Grey's Anatomy and come back to us!

Jen - you're hardcore, girl. Your "light" workouts are heavy duty for the regular world. How has your stomach problem been lately?

Dana - you have a very busy weekend! I'm sending you a PM sometime today, so keep an eye out for it.

Okay, clearly I missed where August has gone. Can someone enlighten me?

Arista, Mariah, Terri, Deb, everyone else... WE MISS YOU! We need to get back to those 100 posts a day!

And for whoever asked, I'm bringing my camera and many pics will be taken.
 
Hey chicklets. How is everyone today?

Shelley – hey you! You weren’t around yesterday were you? I’ll be checking my pm’s – oohh, I can’t wait. HA! August is working on some big old project, or so she says! :)

Robin – well crap! I didn’t think about the cat puking. OK, here is my next solution to your problem. Tear out the carpet and put down a floating hardwood floor, then, get one of those plastic covers for the couch and voila!!!! Problem solved. See, I can solve any problems. Ha!!!! Hopefully one of these days when my life isn’t so chaotic I can get up to visit you. Gabe loves cats and he would love yours. Unfortunately, everyone we visit that has cats are cats that do not like kids so as soon as they see Gabe they run and hide. My DH is such a dud and will not let the boys get a pet. All we have is one stinkin’ beta fish, Jimmy Larry, who we’ve had for about 3 years now. Where are you going on your vacation? And you never did say, were you/are you taking a cooking class???

Corrie – hey stranger! You need to get your butt around here more often. You think your life is boring? I live the same old boring life as you – 2 kids, DH, same old same old. So with 2 boys (and a messy DH) we have brown carpet in the living room. Unfortunately, my couch is hunter green and I always warn company, sit at your own risk. You never know what may jump out at you or what you may sit on.

Michele – I’m impressed with your workouts. You are doing great following the rotation. High 5 to you!

Diane – we all love hearing about your pregnancy, so don’t stop posting just b/c you haven’t been working out. How has work been? Are they treating you good?

Jen – nope, no LC pizza yesterday. I had a healthy choice meal and some fruit. Today is another healthy choice meal and baby carrots. I do have a BBQ chix pizza in the freezer though. You got me hooked on those. I did have the spinach/mushroom deep dish on Friday and it was ok. Doubt I”ll buy it again. Ya know, nobody can ever call you a slacker. You use every bit of your time throughout the day productively. You don’t mess around do ya?!?!?!?

Mariah is working 2 jobs now (IHOP and real estate) so I hope that she is just too busy with work that she hasn’t dropped in to say hi. Mariah, if you’re out there, HI!!!! Let us know that you’re ok.

Tammy – didn’t you start your new job yesterday? How’s the first day go?

Hey to everyone else.

Last night was a busy night for us. We didn’t get home until 7:45!!! Gannon was outside from 5:00-7:30 and I was so hoping he’d go to bed as soon as we got home. No such luck. He was up til 9:30. The only exercise I got in yesterday was a walk at lunch. Tonight I don’t have anything going on so I’m thinking DH can watch the boys and I’m going to try to do a circuit workout. Kill 2 birds w/1 stone with the cardio and weights. I have never done DrillMax. I’ve done the cardio only premixes but not the weights. I’m thinking maybe I”ll do that one. Does it have abs in it? I like LIC so it’ll be a toss up between the two.

Well, better get back to work. Have a great day all!
 
Hi Shelley, I think August said something about the peak of her mound coming up?!!? I think she may be out of town, or out of her PJs for work. I'm glad to hear you are bringing your camera. You know about mine. I could borrow Emily's digital. My sister lives in WA state, about 2 hours north of Spokane. We'll probably take a trip in Canada while we are there. Want to meet us?

I'm not sure what today's workout will consist of. Something involving the upper body though. My legs are fried with the cardio and lower body work I've done over the last 4 days. Jen, can you say bulky thighs?

Gotta get back to work. I'm wasting way to much time today.
 
Hiya!

I have another dire situation that requires prayer. I don't feel like posting about it again -- I'm really drained this morning -- but you can read all about it in the <--- thread if you're interested. It concerns my older brother who is in a bad way right now.

I have PUB on tap for today but I'm not sure I have the energy to get through it -- I didn't sleep a wink last night due to the ^^^ situation.

Shelley, I'm glad you finally made it onto the forums today. I hope SNM can straighten out the problem. Are you getting excited about your GTG with Robin. I'm excited and I won't even be there. DON'T forget your camera!

Corrie, don't be such a stranger! I was lol at you putting your sister in a headlock -- LMAO!

Jen, I agree with Shelley -- your light workouts are heavier than most. I keep hoping you energy will infiltrate my body by osmosis through my computer -- LMAO!!

Diane, I echo the crowd when I say that we LOVE hearing about your pregnancy!! Please post whenever you can. It sounds like your job is totally out of control right now. I hope your load lightens soon so you can play with us again.

Dana, it sounds like you had one he!! of a long day yesterday. I hope you can get a workout in tonight. I don't think DM has an ab section but it has some functional fitness moves that should work the core, and I think there's a plank push up in one of the drills that might hit the core. I definitely DO NOT think you need to add abs to this workout.

Robin, I hope you enjoy your Lab Week festivities. You're a crazy bunch! Have you decided on an UB workout yet? Why don't you do PUB for me? :D

August, I know you're gone right now but just in case you check in -- Hi! Hi! Hi! We miss you:*

My friend goes back to the doctor today and will find out if the cancer invaded her lymph nodes. Prayer, prayer, and more prayer please and thank you.

We miss all a youse MIA Haters!! Kate, Tammy, Arista, Terri, Deb, Jana, Kara, and anybody I inadvertently missed. Please come play with us:* :*
 
Michele - thanks for the reply on DM. I think I'll do that one tonight. Probably not until 7:30-8:00 though b/c since it is so nice out, I"ll be out with the boys.

I haven't checked out your post in OD but I'll add your brother to my prayers. I'm praying that Nancy's cancer hasn't spread. We need some good news. I've had one of those mornings here at work. Although I don't work with any of the kids, it breaks my heart when I here the stories I do. :(

Have any of you ever tried this site, www.goldkit.com? I keep seeing the informercial. You send in your old gold stuff and you get a refund check. I have a bag of crap (literally) necklaces and bracelets that are broken, earrings where I lost the other one. I sent for the free kit. If it is a scam, oh well b/c I am not doing anything with this junk anyway. I"ll let you know if I get any money for this stuff.

OK, lunch is up, so hi-ho-hi-ho back to work I go. . .
 
Thanks everyone for not being bored with my pregnancy talk!

Shelley - Okay, sorry I have been out of the loop, but what are you taking pics of?

Dana - You should bring Gabe over to my house. Our cats are soooo friendly now. They used to get scared when people would come over, run out of the room, and then eventually come out and be petted but still be a little skiddish. Now they don't bat an eyelash when a guest comes in, and Sydney just walks right over to the new person and cries until she is petted or sits in their lap. Sadie is a little more aware of personal space, and just kinda hangs out with the group without getting in people's faces. I am worried a little of how Syd will react to the baby, she requires so much attention. By the way, the pizza sounds good. Oh no, another craving.

Michele - Very impressive that you went back and finished your workout. I definitely would have blown it off. I'm sorry to hear aobut your brother. You are such a great sister for helping him the way you are. And I am also sad to hear about your friend with cancer. Sorry I have been out of the loop. I will keep both in my prayers.

August - I know you aren't checking in but hope your big project goes well.

Robin - Okay, what is everyone bringing their camera for, I am so out of the loop.

Nothing really to update here. I still don't have much of a baby bump, but enough to need to wear maternity clothes (that are too loose). I haven't really been working out and I have been eating horrible food. Lots of junk food and fast food. I am on the upper limit of reasonable weight gain, so I am now motivated to slow it down by eating healthier and starting to exercise again. I have been really craving salads all the time, so that should help with the healthy eating. But I only take a walk about once every two weeks, so that needs to change. It is just so busy at work and I am alwasy so stired. I was here until 11 pm last night. I should be able to leave earlier today, but have a stupid happy hour to go to for work where I can't drink wine or eat the soft cheese so just have to sit there.

I have really be starting to feel movements of the baby! It is pretty neat. It feel it the most when a cat sits on my lap and starts purring. The baby kicks like crazy then. Nothing too strong yet, just little flutters and wiggles. We have also started reading books to the baby since it can hear us now.

We find out the sex in 1 week and 1 day! May 2nd! Will it be Ben, or Lila? I am so excited. I really just can't wait. I can't wait to start buying stuff and setting up the nursery. We have been starting to clear out my workout room which will be the nursery. So I will have to workout in the living room. Luckily, we will probably move to a bigger house within abut 6-9 months of having a baby, and an important requirement for me will be that I have a workout room! So I won't have to stay away from Cathe for too long. Our living room is too small to store all the Cathe equipment.
 
Dana, we must have been posting together. You and the boys are welcome anytime. One of our cats would run and hide. The other would come plop himself down on the couch next to who ever is sitting there. He sometimes embarrasses me, plopping next to people I'm pretty sure hate cats. LOL. Good luck with Drill Max. I have a love/hate relationship with it. No abs, but you use your abs through the whole thing.

Michele, it never rains, but it pours. Your brother has been put on the prayer list. How'd you turn out so good?

Diane, Shelley and her daughter are coming to my house for a visit this weekend. That's what everyone wants pictures of. I hope we have decent weather and can go hiking and maybe for a picnic. Also, Shelley said she always wanted to learn to shoot a gun, so I've instructed my DH to give her a lesson. I remember the first time I felt my first baby move. It was like a tiny bubble on my insides. So neat.
 
Hey again...

Robin - ummmmmmmmmmmmmm... no, we won't be coming to visit you on the west coast;) I'll actually probably bring two cameras, Sophie's and mine. Hers is better:p

Michele - you really are going through some crap, aren't you? ((((hugs))))

Diane - I gained 60 lbs when I was pregnant, so I hear you on the weight gain. I think I gained 12 lbs in my third month alone:p How exciting that the baby is moving! I can't wait to find out if it's Ben or Lila! Mine was a surprise. I was SURE it was going to be a boy:p

Dana - check your PMs;)
 
I have some great news!! Nancy's lymph nodes are free of cancer cells!!!!!! I can't tell you how relieved I am. We sure have been on an emotional roller coaster around here lately. She will begin chemotherapy treatments in 2 or 3 weeks, followed by radiation therapy, so she still has a long road ahead of her, but at least we can see a light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you so much of your prayers and support. It means more to me than I can say, really!

Diane, your plans sound so exciting! I can't wait to see a pic of you out to here -- LOL! I love the names you've picked out. I have a nephew named Ben:D . I can't wait to find out the sex!!

Dana, I've never heard of that company so I don't' know if it's a scam or not. Let us know what happens.

Well, I'm going to take myself out for lunch. I'll BBL:*
 
Dana, I forgot to answer your other questions. I'm going to Washington state to visit my sister the last week of May. She lives in the boonies, about 2 hours north of Spokane. The cooking class I took was a one evening thing at the Now We're Cooking store in Williamsport. My friend owns it, but the classes are kind of expensive, so I've never taken one before. I enjoyed it, but can only afford to do it once or twice a year.
 
Hey girls-

Michele-I'm so glad for your friend but sorry to hear that things are not going well with your brother-I'm sending warm thoughts your way-and a couple of days ago you mentioned (I think it was you) about procrastinating-whatever you said described me exactly-it's the main reason I havn't been posting as much-if I sit down in front of the computer my whole day or at the very least hourssss are GONE-my list of things to get done is ssoooo long and I agree that I will never do better with my workouts unless I start doing them first thing in the morning before I do anything else- you also said you feel overwhelmed by it sometimes too-thats SO me-like I have a ton of stuff RIGHT NOW that I could be doing..oh well--

yesterday I subbed in a 7th grade class and it went very well-I did not have to do much, I was basically helping the other teacher with attendance (they team teach)-

today I took a civil service exam-it went pretty good, I think-

I havn't worked out in a week-I'm sure Tony's missing me-I don't know how to get back into the program but I will-I'll just do week 3 again-

Dana-you sound as busy as me (or I as you)-tonight, I'm in one city with one kid and then hubby is somewhere else with the other two-wheww!!

hey to EVERYONE else and talk to you all later--deb
 
Robin - is Now We're Cooking in the mall or actually in Williamsport? Last time I was at the mall I saw that there is a cooking gadget type of store, wasn't sure if it was in there. Taste Of Home is usually in our area doing their cooking demonstrations. Usually in Bloomsburg and Milton. Have you ever went to one of theirs?

Michele - I am so glad that Nancy finally received some good news. I'll continue to keep her in my prayers.

Deb - hey you!!! What civil service test did you take? Kudos to you for subbing yesterday. I cannot imagine a room full of middle school kids. I'd pull my hair out. I can't believe how you keep standing Tony up. Do you think he will take you back???:p
 
Hey haters...I'm here earlier than normal because okay, hold on to your hats, you aren't going to believe this... I DIDN'T WORK OUT TONIGHT.... GASP, SIGH, GASP, SIGH....

I think I am getting a sinus infection. I called the doctor today but they could only get me in at 1:15 & I was WAY too busy at work to get there then. So, I made it for 3 tomorrow. I am hoping I'll feel good enough tomorrow evening to do B&G, which was supposed to be tonight w/ tomorrow off but hopefully I can just swap my off nights. I am going to be SUPER early tonight!

Shelley- I think my "hardcore" workouts finally did me in! I know you of all people understand my issues with not working out when I'm supposed to, we are so much alike in that area, along with many others and are way too hard on ourselves. Wish I could kick the habit but have yet to figure out a way not to freak out & get anxious when I miss a workout.

Corrie- I AM SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU!!!! :) Please stop by more often, even if you don't have time to address everyone, we understand. Just pop in & say hello. I was so happy to see you post. And I like the idea of putting your sis in a headlock if she disagrees again! Aren't sisters great, mine is 8 years younger than me so I spoil her rotten. Had any Kaluha lately, I love that stuff!

Dana- I know what you mean, I'm addicted to those pizzas to. Well you go & tell me I'm not a slacker on the day I skip my workout! My throat is killing me & just feel achy, I am getting to bed super early tonight. Drill Max doesn't have abs but I love that workout, if you have it you must try it!! Report back, okay? :)

Robin- Shelley banned me from saying bulky thighs... but don't tell her... I so wish my thighs were slimmer but I think I'm never going to be able to have them as slim as I'd like, I would have to not work out and not eat to get them slim & that sure isn't going to happen, this girl loves her food!

Michele- As soon as I am done posting I'm going to check out your post about your situation but please know whatever it is it'll be in my prayers. You poor thing, you've had a rough time lately. I am so sorry. {{{HUGS}}} Hey just read about Nancy, finally some great news for you & her, I was so happy to read that. I will still keep her in my prayers though.

Diane- Yes, you need to post & let us know about the pregnancy. We don't mind if that is all your posts are about, we just want you to stop by & tell us how you & the baby are doing. Hey, just saw you posted today too. When you posted yesterday I checked out your picture trail to see if you had any updated pics of the belly & saw the one with the kitties tail in the picture, so cute!! One week until you know the sex, how exciting!!


Deb- Hey there! Good to see you again. Hope all is well with you.

Okay, well I think I am going to eat dinner early tonight and try to be in bed by 8 or 8:30, I am so busy at work & with not feeling well it makes it hard.
 
Hi Haters:

Sorry for not posting but my week was so hectic. Had two Little League games, two practices and had to work the snack bar.

Lets see, I did Turbo Jam Thursday and Sunday of last week. Got the stomach bug on Monday but I walked 3.4 miles last night.

I plan to do another Turbo Jam or try out my new Dancing with the Stars DVD tonight.

I will try and keep up and read all your wonderful posts!

Tina
