Good Morning:)

How is everyone? And you all know what I am doing...waiting for my releif to get in so I can go home and crawl into my bed:) I was hoping to catch a bit of sleep and not have to go to sleep as soon as I went home, but I don't think thats possible.I wish I could only sleep until 10-11 but I don't feel like setting my alarm and I figure whenever I wake up, thats when my body is telling me I had enough sleep.
Im going to start a new eating plan today me thinks:) Im gonna try the whole calorie stagging trick that Miss Wendy used.I just pick to much and keep my calories in check should elimanate that, right? I will have to decide what I want more.A cookie...or a banana that will keep me feeling full longer.Just smater choices...thats all.And you all know I am such a smart girl so it should be easy making smart choices.

Did anyone watch Desperate Housewives last night and Greys Anatomy? Both of those shows crack me up.I have never watched a show right from the get go but I have managed to catch both of these in there second series so I haven't missed much.I may also start collecting them on DVD...then I can run and watch the whole series...right Susan?

Lori:)
 
Hey! How are you all? Well, we were at the beach yesterday and had a blast! It was only 60, but we were all still in our swimsuits and getting in the ocean, playing in the sand and layning out. Then we all came back to the house, ate like horses and played cards. The kids are in heaven, absolute heaven!

I am going for a five mile run today with the moms. They are riding bikes, though. I hope that the weather holds up; it is supposed to rain a lot today. I will have to get my run in a lot earlier today because it is going to storm like crazy this afternoon. It is pretty friggin' cool because right now I am watching the sun rise over the ocean. Pretty awesome and inspiring! :)

Susan, Charlotte, Wendy, Marcia, Sara, Vilma... how are you guys? I can't wait to get back home so that I can chat with everyone again - I miss you guys! But not enough to wish that I wasn't here. :p

Missy
 
Good morning Missy and Lori:

Missy - I'm so glad you are having a good time on your trip, it sounds absolutely heavenly. :) Enjoy it!

Lori - I caught just a little bit of Desperate Housewives, but haven't seen many before so I was kind of lost, but still thought it was pretty funny.

I have step class tonight so I'm getting all geared up for that today - trying to come up with some more fun moves. What are some of your favorite step moves, maybe I forgot some.

Hi to everyone else and I'll be back later, just wanted to check in.

Take care,
Marcia.:*
 
Hey Girls!

Yesterday was a wild day...earlier that is. I wasn't in the mood to hear a bunch of noise. Neighbors to the corner were having a four wheeling party of some kind. Must have been about 15 of them things running around in the woods by the side of our home getting their jollies and revving their engines. So I am outside cleaning the cars and I got to listen to this????? I am getting quite cranky by the time I am finished. So I get finished and come into the house and Speck had did some diarrhea on the floor. The rest of my family is just sitting around the house as if they don't notice the smell, etc. ((((hheeelllooo))) ARRRGGGHHH! This sends me into a rage!!! So I stomp thru the house (hubby says like some 800 pound woman) and then clean up the mess and I tell them all I need help. My son helps me and DD is watching TV. The weather is warm and the windows are still shut. Does anyone think to open the windows...oh, I forgot, they didn't notice the smell. Makes me madder because my DH is just sitting by the computer and doesn't even open the windows! Instead he is just laughing at me and I didn't know this. Glad I didn't. So I come in and open the windows while he just laughs. I think it turns him on when I am mad because he just thinks I look so cute when I am mad????? Hmmmmm. Anyhoo, I said that we had to leave. Go somewhere else where I didn't have to hear all that 4wheeling noise. So we went for a nice walk on a paved trail thru town and then went for ice cream. I haven't had ice cream in some time and the way my day was going, I felt I needed it so I had the "special brownie sundae". The rest of day was much better and the band of 4wheelers had gone their separate ways! Thank goodness.

So today I am going to get some cleaning done. Work all body parts and some plyometrics.

Marcia,

I am slowly just starting to like some stepping, but I prefer jumping.

Lori,

I'll email you back later. I got your picture. Weirdo. LOL!

Missy,

Suppose to storm here too. I thought you lived in NC? No?

Charlotte~~
 
Good Morning everyone!

Charlotte, Lord you had quite a day yesterday! Sorry is was so yucky in the beginning but a long walk and some icecream sounds like a great way to end to it all!:9 What are you gonna do Charlotte....Men and kids....you can't live w/'em...you can't shoot 'em! I guess we all just have to deal! LOL ;) :7 :p

Today is GS Chest and Back and possibly some cardio even though it's not in the rotation...I feel like I need it after yesterday-bad eating day, BLECH!x(

Hello Lori, Marica, Missy, Vilma, Susan, Sara...did I miss anyone? I hope not but sorry if I did!!!:eek:

TTYL!:*
 
Good Morning Ladies!

Weekend was a good one and I'm just finishing up my breakfast then it's down to business with S&H legs I've decided to follow Cathe's rotation for this month.

I get up at 5:30 M-F to get the kiddos up and out to school but today I'm feeling a bit sluggish. I had a really hard time getting a good solid sleep last night maybe it was that time change but my hubby was snoring like a freight train and I was constantly telling him to hush LOL.

It's already 61 degrees and with some thunder and rain - it was really bad this morning - my kids counted 11 lightening strikes while I was driving them to school- really bad storm but now it's sunny so I hope to go out and walk after I do Cathe's rotation.

I'll peek in later, I need to change and get ready to work :)
 
Wendy,

Yeah, I know! LOL!

Vilma,

My hubby ocassionally snores and I just wake him up when he does. Well sounds like everyone is getting storms. I had a hard time with the time change. Didn't want to move out of bed this morning. What is Cathe's rotation for this month? I didn't check it out yet cuz I have my own.

Charlotte~~
 
She's too fat for me. I don't want her, you can have her. We don't want her. You can have her...she's so heavy, she's a tombstone. If she would lose some, I would have her.(repeat about 4 times).....this is what I am listening to as I get ready to clean. It is some old big band song. LMAO!
 
Hi girls!

I am awake! I took DD to school, got some gas and picked up a coffee...after I got home I thought..."hmmm...I should go to bed":) I know I lay there for a while before I actually got to sleep but I think I feel better now.

Missy, glad to hear you are having a great time! Thats awesome.I wish I were somwhere now.That would be a dream come true! This will be the 2nd yr in a row that we haven't been down south.I would like nothing more then being sprawled out on a beach right now!

Charlotte, your just gonna have to move}( I think I would have been a little rotted myself if the dogs had did something and everyone was just walking around it.I have days like those where everything is going wrong and i bet that Sunday hit the spot!

Marcia...when do you weigh in again? Keep us posted!

Good Mornig to everyone else, Vilma and Wendy..you are quiet today?
Lori :)
 
I posted earlier Miss Lori but I guess you missed that one!:p

No time for talkin'...I have a work out to do!}(

Catch you ladies later!:*
 
Good morning my little peeps!

Wow - I had a hard time getting up this morning. I stayed up waaaaay too late. But I got up and did ME and topped it off with walking lunges and Bowflex leg extensions. Don't ask me how!

So guess what? I just got my bloodwork results back and I'm SO happy! My good cholesterol went up (from 68 to 70), my bad cholesterol went down (from 107 to 94) making my overall go down from 195 to 177. Woo hoo! My doctor was already happy with it before this, but I wasn't because 195 to me was too close to the 199 high end of the range. I always wonder what it would be if I didn't eat right and exercise. I must just be prone to higher cholesterol??? My mom has it. My triglycerides also went down - from 102 - 64! That's just motivation for me to keep eating well. Yay!

Missy - I'm sooooooo envious of you right now! I'm glad you're having a great time.

Marcia - I love that jump kick thing that you do on one side and then to the other side of the step - I can't remember if it's in Imax 2 or RS. It's probably my all time favorite move for some reason (probably b/c it's easy!).

Charlotte - wow, you DID have an awful day! I love the comment about the 800 pound woman. Too funny!

Vilma - I wish we had rain. I love rain.

Wendy - did you eat too much yesterday? I did!

Lori - yes, a series for running would be a great idea for you! You could run to an entire season all at once - a marathon!

Wendy, I knew you had posted...it was just short and sweet.Thats why I said you were being quiet:p

Susan, I am thinking of going for a run now but I don't know what to watch.Maybe I will put on Sex and the City.I haven't watched that in a while but you wouldn't beleive that I am not in the mood to workout and its b/c I took yesteday off.When I take a day off, its jsut as well for me to lay down and die:) I just don't want to do anything the next day. I will be o.k once I get started...its the getting started part that is hard.

I just got back from taking the dogs for a walk.Hopefully I wore them out a little.They are still outside though,I am hoping that the panting and drooling will taper off a bit before I let them in.O.k..off to workout.I had a run and GS legs on tap...but I think I need to choose something I am in the mood for.

Lori:)
 
Lori, good luck on your workout. Once you get going I know you'll feel better. I think Sex and the City would be a good choice. Looking at how skinny SJP is should keep you going! :) I just tried a Cosmopolitan for the first time a few weeks ago. I was reading that SJP doesn't even like them, even though they were her drink on the show. Funny. I thought it was WONDERFUL. Of course I had to have lots of cranberry juice in it to make it tolerable. But then I loved it. I suppose I could just drink the cranberry juice then, you think?

Susan, yeah, I stuffed myself silly...BLECH!x( It was GOOD, don't get me wrong...but when I do that it sets off a bad mood because I feel gross...I should know better...it's really not worth it.:-(

Lori, :p

Just finished my work out....GS chest and back, 100 walking lunges and HSC ab work.

Off to get Joey up from his nap!

Later chickies!:*
 
Im back! And you are right,I feel much better! I did a 4 mile run and the Viper..I am wiped now!
SJP was so skinny in those shows that she was almost bull legged:) Ever hear that one before!:)
Must go get a shower and try the new protein shake I bought.
Lori:)
