Hey Girls:)

I know I am probably the only one up and I am not happy about that;) I don't think it was "has" hard to get up today to get my workout in but I could have slept another hour, thats for sure.

Didn't do much last night.We went to Dh's store and when we came home, I ran for 5 miles.My belly was still bad from the procedure I had done earlier yesterday.Thank goodness, it is finally gone.Then I found it hard to fall asleep last night.I don't know if it't b/c I had a few things on my mind or b/c of the run.

After today, I am off for 4 days...what will I do tomorrow? I really want to dig this house out! But DH thinks I should wait until more snow melts.We will see!

I have HSC on tap for now and I would like to go for another run tonight but I may want to do a long run tomorrow, so we will see!

Hey! Where are the sleepheads????:p
I did my workout today and I am surprised how much shorter these workouts feel when I don't incorporate running.I did get a wicked stitch on the 3rd seg, I don't know why.I rarely get them when doing aerobics.
I am a little zombie like though.I am going to be lazy today.I should call the Doc to see if I can get another pick me up:7 The pill they gave me yesterday is what they give mothers for pain after a C-section...no wonder I was as high as a kite!LOL

Good Morning Lori!

I'm awake...barely!:7

I know a guy who worked swing-shifts like you do and worked 4 days on, 4 days off and would alternate every few weeks between day and night shifts. It was hard to adjust the sleeping but he liked having 4 days off in a row every week. I was jealous of that, though I don't know if I could handle working a swing shift. I am not very good if I don't get proper sleep.

Anywhoooo....my initial plan was to get my arse to the gym today for a spin class but I'm not sure that I feel like it today. The rotation actually calls for KPC so I might do that instead. I also haven't used the rebounder lately so I'm kinda wanting to do that too. YIKES! I have a decision to make, ey? Tomorrow is supposed to be a 45 min steady state run...I'm getting tired just thinking about it! LOL :p

ETA: I bought High Step Challenge a couple of weeks ago and still haven't done it except for the abs and just got Muscle Max yesterday! I intend to sub in MM on Saturday in my rotation but HSC will still have to wait. :-(

Hey, girls! DH and I ate at this place last night called Awful Arthur's, ever heard of it? It was GREAT! I had some grilled rockfish and it was sooooooooooooooooooooooooo good! I can go on and on about how great their seafood was. Even their shrimp was the best I have ever had, it was so plump and delicious!!! I love food, but I really love really great food. Right now, I am so in love with that place.

Yesterday I went on a 5.4 mile run, and my best friend went with me for 4.4 of the way!!! I am so proud of her, that was the first time that she has ever gone that far, she was so terrific. :7 When I was done, I got in the pool, which is 40 degrees right now, because my knees hurt, and I am telling you that it was magic! No pain at all today in my knees, hip flexors, achilles or anywhere in my foot and ankle. MAGIC! Hopefully it will work after my 10 miles :eek:

We are going to the dunes today, which is really neat. It looks just like the Sahara or something, it is wild. I will get pictures to share with you guys. :)

See you guys later!

Or..........you could do it for fun someday:eek: :+ She goes from one thing to the next in this workout so if your not ready for it, you may have to pause it.I use to think it was very confusing in the beginning b/c she moves so quick.Its not like BC where she gives you a breather.

Anyway..this is the longest day EVER! I am doing work but I still can't beleive it is only 10 here! Ugh...

Good morning gang:

Missy - your vacation sounds like such a blast - I'm so jealous!! :p

Lori - how much snow do you have left? We just got some good rain showers last week that took the rest of our snow away and now it's greening up quite nicely - I can't wait for the trees to start budding - ohhhhh spring, just love it!!!!

I was up at 5am this morning, but decided to go sit outside (it was 50 degrees) with my cup of java and just take in the peace and quiet and great spring smells. It's suppose to rain later today, but I'm going to try and get a run in after work. I brought my baseball cap just in case - I'll throw that on to keep the rain out of my eyes and go.......I'm not sure how far, I just started running again and I'm probably just going to go as far as I can for today and see where I should start my training at. I'd like to run another 1/2 marathon, but there's not much around here, so I'm not sure. I am planning on running a 10 miler in early October, though.

WOW - I'm pretty chatty this morning, I'll leave you girls to answer and then I'll be back. It must be the beautiful weather. :*

Luv Ya,
~Marcia~
 
Missy, sounds like you are having a FAB time! Good for you! So when does reality set back in??? In other words...when are you due home again?

Marcia, sitting outside on pleasant mornings drinking coffee or tea is sooo nice! I always tend to do that when I'm on vacation. DH and I were able to get a balcony room on our honeymoon and you can betcha' I was out on that balcony EVERY morning with my coffee while DH snored away!;)

Lori, I think I will have to just stick HSC in somewhere so that I can try it already...maybe next week!}(
 
Missy!!! When are you coming home!!!!!!!!;( ;( ;( ;( Im just joking! Soak up all of the fun with Dan and the kids! Lord knows, we don't get to do it enough.Makes ya wonder what life is all about.Work 90% and play 10%...Im pretty sure thats not the way it was intended.

Marcia,...I can't sit outside yet with a cup of coffee,I'll tell ya that much.Actually, the snow is melting but not a messy melt.It hasn't really rained but its been a little warmer and foggy and fog really eats at the snow.I can see that the snow as gone down quit a bit but we still have a ways to go.I can't wait for spring! I love the warm weather! Love,Love,Love it!!!

Wendy, what do you mean next week? This is only Thurs!!! Do it tomorrow!!! Come on...you need a t-shirt that says "just do it!" Get rid of you CK shirt!:7

Where is Charlotte!? I know she is awake!
Lori:)
 
Good Morning.....

Boy, did I have a night. Yesterday, mil watched the kids for me while I did my k field. She always puts Kylee down for a nap at 11. I put her down at 1 or 2. When she takes an early nap, she also takes an evening nap and stays up all night. So, I was up until 1 with her. The she decides to wake up at 5 for awhile. Now she is sleeping, but I hear the boys waking up a bit. I got up about 20 min ago. I wanted to get up early to clean this filthy house before the kids woke up. Plus, I have to go grocery shopping today with mil. I htink I will call her and tell her that Kylee's sleep was all screwed up and now I can't go....She is a great mil and grandmother to my children, but why the early naps????? It drives me nuts!

So now I am off to some well deserved coffee and to feed kids, start laundry, clean, etc....does it ever end????

Lori,

I am so busy yacking with you that is why I am not here...COOKIE! LOL!

Anyhoo, I am ready for some warm weather here. I want to wear my summer tops and show off!!!! Going shopping tomorrow. Cleared out some of the tops out of my closet I don't wear and gonna get me some more.

Got circuit work to do today, abs and some cardio (Imax 2 blast moves).

Have great sweaty workouts!
 
Sara? How can your house be filthy when you are always cleaning? I bet your just like my mother...you see dirt that no one else sees! LOL Do you have glasses on? Maybe you need to clean them and maybe the house will appear so much cleaner! hahaha

Charlotte, your going shopping? Are you gonna post pics? LOL DOn't buy anything naughty!!!

Lori:)
 
Lori,

I am buying batteries too so maybe I will post new pictures. Buying anything "naughty"? Hmmmmm. Don't get me thinking too much now! LOL!
 
Hiya Ladies!

Hope all are having an excellant day, I for one feel ok... just finished my coffee and breakfast and I'm headed out the door once again today.

Last night I was able to jog/run on the treadmill for an hour as I was not able to workout at my scheduled time and it looks like that's what I'll be doing again today.

I'm still following Cathe's rotation for this month so I hope to be able to continue.

Question who has preordered the new Cathe workouts once she's recovered from her injuries?

I've looked at them but have not decided either way, with so many of her workouts that I already own I'm wondering if I really need or want anymore more than likely I probably will purchase after reviews.

Ok I gotta go see my daughter's field day at her school plus run some errands in town today.

Take Care :)
