<---wonders what Shelley will do today, since all her chores are done
<---is headed for church, followed by GS C&T, followed by an indoor picnic, since the weather sucks
 
<--waves gm
<--also hangs her head in shame ;)
<--was very busy yesterday
<--accomplished everything on her todo list despite hours at the salon waiting for her toes to dry
<--chose a polish color that looked like a deep mauvey pink
<--put down her magazine an hour later and saw she had blood red toenails! :eek:
<--is not the blood red toenail type and is trying to get used to it
<--tried the UP and ab sections of the Firm Super Body Sculpt
<--was a bit bored and unchallenged
<--will try it next time with heavier weights
<--prefers CoreMax to the ab section
<--prefers CoreMax to EVERY ab workout!
<--has not had even a sip of java yet!
<--must get to it
 
<--- waves good morning to all
<--- tells Robin there are ALWAYS more chores
<--- tells Catherine that if you do the timesavers from each GS UB workout, it comes to just over an hour ;)
<--- wonders how Nance's toes turned from mauvey to blood red?
<--- is off to do things outside before the severe thunderstorm warning manifests into severe thunderstorms:p
 
<--is :eek: at FN's blood red toe nails that were supposed to be mauve
<--agrees with Shelley that there are always more chores
<--tells Shelly was just thinking about the TS premixes for the GS :D
<--is not a happy camper :(
<--was doing warmup sets of squats, had gotten up to 80 pounds and felt a sharp intense pain in lower back at the bottom of the squat
<--couldn't straighten up for a couple of minutes
<--has stretched out and is fine now
<--but needless to say the workout is a wash x(
<--will do some light yoga/stretching later
<--had absolutely no warning that was gonna happen
<--was feeling great on the first couple of sets and then boom!
<--sorry for self absorption
<--hopes Shelley doesn't get those severe t-storms

<-- haven't squatted more than 60lb in years, and that 60 was only because <-- didn't realize <-- could say no to putting that amount over <--'s head :+

<-- did the stability ball segment from BG then the core section from Bento's extreme kickbox and then the step and floor segments of Core Zone or whatever the Tracey new core workout is called
<-- knows it's strike zone but is it core zone too?
<-- just knows that now <-- want every single thing that cook talked about and showed after the workout
<-- just looked; core BLAST
<-- is standing up, in case you were wondering, since George won and has the computer chair for the day x( x( x(
