Hi Kathy! Hi Everyone!
I'm about to head down to do MMA: Kickboxing (not Boxing, but close, Kathy!).
I kept Zach home today. He told me he had shooting pain in his mouth when he bit down and his mouth ached. I'm probably a push over, because now he's chillin on the couch playing video games. Oh well. I guess he can have one freebie (although he had 3/4's of the day off yesterday!). He's funny, he told me he feels like he's "sick" because I'm taking care of him. I think he likes it!
I have to do abs today too, I'm thinking of checking out BBL's Tummy Tuck , if it's not too long..
Kathy: Enjoy boxing today! My legs are mildly sore from BBL yesterday, but they're not TOO bad either. A nice sore, where I know I got some benefit from the workout.
better get going, I'll BBL!!!!

Hey again...
I ended up doing the MMA KB and then BBL's Tummy Tuck. That one "bikini sequence" ..OUCH! .. But there were 2 hot men to look at and made me keep my head elevated
MMA KB was weird for me. I mean, I enjoyed it, but it took a while for my heart rate to get up there, or for me to start breathing heavier. I think not until the first little "blast" did that happen. But it was fun!
Kathy: Thanks, you made me feel better about having Zach home. yes, I'm sure the video games are a good distraction. You're right!
Joanne (from yesterday): thanks for the advice on the braces pain. I think he may be sore this weekend. He said there was no way he could have played the trumpet today. They were actually having "The Great East Festival", where they compete for trophies, today. I feel bad he missed it. Him, not so much. LOL!... I'll have to check out that discountworkouts.com! Sounds cool! and sweet that they're cheap like that! ....
Beth: Hope you have a safe trip home! Your boys are going to be ALL over you, (no advil needed!!). I will keep your mom in our prayers, let us know how she's doing. ... I didn't know you were a former trumpet player and had braces?!! So , did you have to "relearn" playing it after the braces? It must feel weird..... I can't believe you were surprised I recognized you in the video!!! I've seen you a million times! LOL!. I have seen a lot of pictures of you, on the RT too, from Hottie. So yeah, I knew you. I LOL @ wondering if Wendy REALLY loves Eggland Best Eggs that much! She was very serious and enthusiastic about them, wasn't she? those eggs DID look good in the video!
Hottie: Hi 5's on CCC yesterday! I love how you take workouts that are challenging and daunting to you , and take em on until you get em good (aka the Imaxes and NOW CCC!). ... I still think they missed out big time on interviewing, you at the RT! .... HEY, I WANNA run with Evee and Joe too!

Hi ladies!!
Kathy, I can't remember what MMA Boxing was like! That one has the leg drills, right?
Chris, I bet Zach just saw an opportunity to spend some time at home with mom and get pampered! Gotta grab those moments when you can! Is he asking for shakes? That's all Jameson wanted (or could eat) the first day or two. Is he going to stay in band during high school? He graduates this year, right? Jameson still hasn't decided. I remember MMA kickbox as being kind of low key, but fun. I liked Tummy Tuck. Can't remember the bikini moves, but yes, it's good to have the men in there!
Beth, hope you are having a safe trip home! Those boys are going to be so happy to see you!
Hottie, too funny - sure, I'd love to run with Joe and Evee! Although Tully might get a bit jealous! I need to take her out for a run this weekend.
I did another workout from discountworkouts this morning. A kickbox one. This one, was just eh. OK, but very repititive and not a big fun factor at all. Not real intense, but that was OK for today. I'm sore everywhere from yesterday's workout. I may try a step one tomorrow.
Kind of a tame weekend. For us, at least. Colin has a soccer game tomorrow. It's DH's birthday Sunday, so I need to figure out what we are doing for that. I'm sure there will be cake involved!
I got a letter from the insurance company saying they are investigating our claim for Ian's head when he got hurt on the trampoline and to call them immediately. Saying it may be the homeowner's responsibility. Ugh! There's no way I am suing his friend's family for this, which is what they are implying. The mom was there watching them and it was a total accident. Nobody's fault. I called the insurance company and answered their questions. But, I didn't give them any of the contact information for the family. Now we just wait for the next letter I guess. I don't know how much the total bill was, but it's probably outrageous.
It's finally nice here - should go outside for a walk.

Hey, I checked out that website, Joanne! The workouts didn't look too bad, quality wise. I mean the girl had a pleasant enough voice and the music sounded ok. I looked at an advanced Step and one kickboxing. Which ones did you do yesterday?
Oh, I forgot to share my BBL story with you from yesterday. For some reason we started talking about BBL , and I asked Greg if my butt looked "lifted". So he jokingly "checked it out" and said, "Why yes, yes it does!". So I turned my butt to Zach and asked him what HE thought. He looked at my butt, and then gave me the MOST disgusted look ever! I said, "What's wrong?", And he said, "Ewwwwww... you asked me to look at your BUTT". I love embarassing my children! LOL!.
cake? did someone say cake? I really do love cake. I was missing it today, thinking of last Friday's (bakery cookies and cake, *sigh*). Make sure you get (bake?) a REALLY good one, Joanne!
oh, that's crap about the insurance company. Geesh. Just pay up, damnit! Hope it works out!!!

Chris, yea, the quality of those workouts is pretty good. Not as crisp as Cathe's new ones, but comparably to many other workout DVDs out there. The one I did yesterday was Advanced Strength Training Vol. 2, the first workout. There's two on each DVD. Loved that one. I have another of the kickbox with a different instructor, so I'm hoping that's a better kickbox workout than the one I did today. Ha - your "discussion" with Greg and Zach about your butt reminds me of our weekend. I put on my bathing suit and Jameson is like OMG - ew!! Talk about a confidence booster. Then he tried to play it off like he didn't say anything. I just had to laugh. I told him wait till this summer when you get to see me and grandma in bathing suits together (at the cottage)!
OMG - I'm so hungry again. I had a nice sandwich that I brought from home, Sun Chips, an apple and some SnackWell cookies. I should not be hungry. I've been really good with my eating, except last night. We went out after Colin's last game for our church team and I had a delicious corned beef sandwich and fries. Oh, it was so good. Grilled with melted swiss cheese. I get up this morning and I'm up three pounds. What the heck? I've been slowly (I mean reaaaalllly slowly) losing some weight since my epiphany looking at our New Orleans pictures. Now I get three pounds back. I'm sure it's water, blah, blah, but it's still frustrating. Oh, Chris, I meant to ask you, do you notice a weight gain the day after you run? I seem to always be up a pound or two after running. It goes away in a couple days, but it's weird.
OK, I'm babbling now....have a good weekend all if I'm not back...(but you know I probably will be)

That is too funny, Joanne, the conversasions with our kids, huh?
Boy, I do not know what is up with Zach today. He has had TWO crying episodes! #1 this morning, when Greg told him he couldn't play a video game. and #2 this afternoon, when Alex was picking on him (in response to Zach picking on HIM).
He has not CRIED in a very very long time like that. Wow.
What the heck did they give him at the orthodontist?????
Oh , you're silly! Corned beef is WICKED salty, as are the fries!!! It's salt, baby, salt. I know I've gasped and had my chin drop at CALORIE counts in take out food, but have you ever looked at the sodium counts? It's no wonder the scale goes up like that! Drink water and PEE.
On Tuesday for supper I made this wonderful delicious soup. But I know the sodium content had to be out of this world (lots of canned ingredients). My scale was up 2 lbs the next day too!
I've never correlated the scale going up with running. I'll have to pay attention to that. I suppose if your muscles are sore?
I'm a pathetic person. I keep daydreaming about my LUNCH last Friday. I am always SOOOo good when we go out to eat. Always get something healthy and veggies, NO FRIES. Well last week when I went out with my mom and sis, I had THE best turkey sandwich with , get this: BACON AND CREAM CHEESE AND A SIDE OF FRIES! I enjoyed every last bite of it, I truly did!
But I've been better this week too. Still trying to change up my eating. The scale was heading in the right direction this morning. not that i've lost a huge amount of weight, it just is edging down. LOL!
That's my blurb on food!
Let us know how the other KB workout is, Joanne!
