HATE - July 17

August

Cathlete
Good morning all!

Today's workout has been the one I've been doing all week practically : Feather Teaser Pink Series, Ripples in the Magic Floating Sheet Hide-And-Seek Part 1, Squeeky the Mouse Tries To Get Away Advanced, and What's So Great About This Cardboard Box Power Ups.

ROBIN - You should look into things salmon pink. You make salmon pink look gorgeous.

I looked for a burbling smilie. http://planetsmilies.net/obscene-smiley-1044.gif I don't suppose she is burbling?

Details. Well, you're right. It's hard to sleep with babies in the house. Especially when your house is practically one small room LOL. But we're all slowly getting used to the routine. Since you've promised none of you will out me (LOL), yes, there are four little ones here now! Two brothers and two sisters, and two of them live with me, and the other two with my mom. Originally I had wanted to get two for Mom, and that was totally the plan....until my friend's cat had 4 and she sent me a photo of them. Downstairs are Lulu and Yoyo. At my place is Cham and Mooch. They are the most adorable little squirrels ever.

And I'm going to blame the heat for their not wanting to hang out on my lap. http://planetsmilies.net/sad-smiley-394.gif LMAO. No, no complaints, and we're working on it. (It's just about the only thing I've been doing this entire week. Thank goodness I'm having a easy work week LOL)

SHELLEY - Yeah, four cuties. I'm not exactly breaking any rules, heh, well, that's slightly a lie, but my (and Mom's) apartment contract is the standard: No Making Holes in the Walls, No Doing Any Construction, No Doing Any Fishy Things Of Which A Landlord Would Not Approve, No Pets, No Destruction and that sort of thing. There are a kzillion pets in this building. I was able to finally convince myself (after EVERYBODY told me that nobody ever follows their contracts, especially the pet one) that the good from it would be far better than the bad. Ultimately, if I and my Mom leave our places the way we found them, we're good. That's going to mean also tearing down the things we've built LOL. http://bestsmileys.com/paranoid/3.gif

So now. What kind of oddities did you encounter this past weekend?

DIANE - I'd been admiring the photos of your two little sisters the whole week before they came (about a week ago). They totally have the greatest time getting all together. I was worried that there might be territory issues or "wait, who the heck are you? Get out of here!" but there is no such thing. When I go down to Mom's, mine come with me, and they immediately start playing with their other bro and sis and have a great time. And when I'm away on weekends, they do sleepovers. It's awesome.

JT - You Hater. You Hater you. Hateful you. Once a Hater, always a Hater.


All right. Naptime is almost over so I'd better get myself warmed up for another bout of Wild Things. http://planetsmilies.net/animal-smiley-5021.gif

Have a good one!
 
Morning August and all the other haters!

Awwwwwwww, August!!! Kitties are so adorable, aren't they? It's awesome that you adopted all four and that they all get along so well together.

Saturday was weird because, well, I'm totally a list person, but I don't think I did one single thing on my list (except get my hair cut). I just didn't feel like it. So I was kind of discombobulated all day. Sunday was weird because someone stole $800 from my bank account and after I found out, I spent the rest of the day fending off an anxiety attack. So.... odd.

Man, I wish I drank coffee because I CANNOT wake up this morning.

Hey, JT, get in here and get yer hate on;)
 
I was wondering if you would see that I started today's post last night so thought I'd run in real quick to see.... so, I am copying the post I did last night here. Be back tonight, hope everyone has a great day!

"HATE being left in the dark.... Tuesday, July 17th"

Since I am checking in so late figured I'd start tomorrow's check in b/c I doubt anyone is around this late. I had a dentist apt tonight so I only planned on a 30 min w/o- bun shaper which I did. I added on more this weekend to make up for the cardio not done today. I get my hair highlighted & cut on Wednesday so I will not workout that night either, feel like a slacker!

August- In case you don't know the subject of today's post has to do with you young lady!!! Let me get this straight... you lied to us haters??? Say it isn't so! I remember Diane asking if you had ended up with a cat & me saying I didn't think so at least last I knew and then you comfirming that statement... raise your right hand & admit it you sneaky cat you! So, what are their names & I WANT PICTURES... it's the least you can do after lying to us.

Robin- I LOVE your hair also, great picture! You get younger looking every time I see a new picture of you. Okay, spill the beans what kind of cleanser, etc... do you use to keep looking so great??

Dana- I hear you on the animal loving & spending money on them. I am the same way, I would do anything for my babies regardless of cost, as long as the cat was in good health, not suffering, etc... Luckily I haven't had anything happen to any of them yet but if it did, I'd be there with debit card in hand! Gannon sounds so cute & that is awesome how much he loves animals. I truly believe that you can tell a lot about a person's heart by how they treat animals, he sounds like a little guy with a big heart and raised right!

Michelle- Too funny about your DH but I agree, I think it is kind of sweet he didn't wake you up & then called to invite you to b-fast! Oh, and how is your DS (sister) doing on the no smoking thing? I have been keeping her in my prayers that she'll get through this, I know first hand how hard it is. I smoked for 10 years & I think it is 3 years now since I quit. The best thing I ever did & it does get easier each week, month, year... just keep telling her that.

Diane- The pictures are so good! Thank you for sharing!! You look wonderful and not huge at all, stop being so hard on yourself!!! You are preggo & need to gain weight so the baby is healthy! I have ZERO doubt in my mind that you will not lose every pound plus some once she is here. Just relax & enjoy and worry about that once she is here!

Shelley- Oh no, why was the weekend so bad? I hope nothing too serious??? {{{{HUGS}}}}... maybe I need to go check in the <---- thread to see if you are okay since I'm sure you won't see this tonight & I will be worried until I know so I'm heading there now.

Okay all you haters, hope you have a wonderful Tuesday & I'll BB tomorrow night!
 
Good morning August, Shelley, Jen, and all!

I literally have about 30 seconds to say hello and then I need to run -- DH is waiting for me. I should have time tomorrow after DH goes to work to catch up with everyone. I really miss you guys!

KITTIES!!!!!!!!!!:) :+ :+

{{{{{SHELLEY}}}}} I hope they catch the %$^&^(* who stole your money. Does the bank monitor their ATM with a camera? I hope they got a good picture of that creep!

Jen - thanks for asking about my sister. I haven't talked to her since Sunday night and she was doing pretty well. She's on a tapering program and by 7:00 Sunday night she still had 7 cigs left in her daily allotment, and she was really happy with that.

DH is calling -- he wants to go out for breakfast. I swear, I'm going to be as big as a house if we keep this up ;( . I still don't know if we're going to the MMGHH. I suppose he'll drop the bombshell at the last minute like he usually does:7 x(

Hello to everyone I missed and I'll see y'all tomorrow:* :* :*
 
August - That is great that they are all getting along so well. They will probably start being lap cats just all of a sudden. That is what happened with our girls. They didn't want anything to do with us for a while, then one day they just came over and sat on us and became lap cats. And now our problem is that they are so needy and need to sit on our lap 24/7! Our kittens definitely had the territory issues at first, and if you remember, Sydney hissed at Sadie a lot in the beginning like she didn't know her. They still do that sometimes after getting home from the vet's office, especially if just one of them had to go and not the other one. But they got over that quickly. We need some pictures! I love kittens.

Michele - By the way, I finally got around to downloading the 2004 MS Office program to the iMac (not that it was complicated, we just hadn't got around to doing it). I tested it out last night and edited some Word documents from work that I had emailed to myself. It works perfectly so far. I also tried excel spreadsheets and those worked as well.

Okay, today I slept in a bit and I am going to try to catch up on my emails and websites and stuff at home right now so that I can go to work and just not check the internet all day. I have that big project due on Friday and I really need to get some work done today. I get so distracted by stuff on the internet and don't realize how much time I am wasting. Especially right now b/c I have a HUGE to do list of stuff DH and I need to do before the baby gets here. And I want it all done by about 36 weeks (in case the baby comes early), which is only about 6 weeks away!! Isn't that nuts. So I have been spending too much time at work trying to get stuff done on my checklist. But the list will have to wait today!!
 
Oh my gosh, I finally just looked at the blog for the new 4 day split. I have been trying to ignore it thinking I would get depressed that I can't do that type of workout for a while, but it made me get all excited about getting back into shape after the baby. Now I am anxious to figure out some sort of rotation using Cathe for after I get the okay to workout full force (I think that is usually 6 weeks post partum for normal delivery). I will probably just be doing walking and light exerise before that.

I know Cathe has a beginner rotation, but I don't have Basic Step or Low Impact Step or whatever those videos are. I haven't done Cathe in so long I can't even remember what her easier videos are. I think I remember Cardio and Weights and maybe Push Pull were easier. Or I could just do a normal rotation but at my own pace with really low weights (and mostly not finishing the workout) for a while. So excited!

The timesaver rotation from this month might be good. Or maybe I should order CTX, I don't have that one! So many options. Any ideas?
