Good Morning Girls

Everyone RISE AND SHINE!!!!!!!
I am still at work and waiting to go home.Do you know (well, I know you don't know ) that I fell asleep at work last night before 12 .I looked at the time around 3, then 4 then 6, then 7.So technically, its no worse then if I just had a bad nights sleep and had to get through my day so I feel good enough to stay home and I am gonna try it.Now, by the time I get home I may be ready to crawl into the bed.But we will see.
If I don't go to sleep then I am going to get my workout in within the next couple of hours and maybe have a little catnap after lunch
So todays workout is GS legs and cardio.And if I do my workout soon, then I could probably get 2 cardio's in today
I am soooooooooooooo in the mood to run outside but its just to darn cold! I can't wait for it to warm up!
Anyway, should go put my mop and bucket back before people start comming in here.

Can't beleive I put the wrong date up.I think I have Wendy alot of razz for that one time.

:)

Well, I am drinking my coffee and I just got back from taking the dogs outside.Chico is around 8 yrs old now and he can't run as fast as he use to.Plus he gives up faster.While Charlie is still a puppy and he can run till the sun goes down.SO when they come home, Chico is wiped and needs to lie down, while Charlie is still full of energy and all he does is pace around Chico,biting at him and wanting him to play.Can you imagine being tired and having someone pick at you? Anyway,I have yelled at him about 5 x since we got home and he is finally getting the hint to leave chico alone.Honestly, I don't think Charlie knows when to give up.

Where is everyone!!!?? I need someone to talk to while sipping my coffee!!!
Lori:)
 
Missy, I sleep in a recliner!:eek: Some nights its not the most comfy and then other nights its heaven! LOL
Its not the cold on my skin that I worry about, its my lunges.If I run when it is cold out,my chest tends to act up!:-( So,thats my problem!
You have abusy day planned.I think after lunch I will just be lazy.DD doesn't have school this afternoon so she is bringing a friend home with her.There isn't much to do around here and I am off until Mon night so there is lots of time to do housework!

Lori:)
 
I thought I would paste my other post here. ;)


Hey, Lori!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is shining here! I don't know why, but I feel like today is going to be a great day, and for some reason I am excited. Cool, huh? I have a pretty busy day, I am going to look at comforters for our bedroom and then I am going to do some heavy duty grocery shopping, then I get to have lunch with my baby and then I get to come home and read all afternoon. I am getting all my housework done as soon as I post this so that all I have to do when I get home is put groceries away. Life is really good, for some reason today. It must be the greatness of God! Oh, and today is a rest day for me. I need it, too, I had a good hill run yesterday and need to rest up for my Terminator workout tomorrow and a long run on Sunday.

DH got on the treadmill last night while we were watching Americal Idol. He ran for a minute then walked for two so that he wouldn't get winded too quickly. I love him! It was so fun to be with him. during the commercials we talked and laughed. He is great. Go DH! But he is going to be sore today! I will just have to massage him.

Charlotte, the treadmill DOES have a calorie counter! I don't know how accurate it is, though. It doesn't ask for weight, sex or BMI, so I am thinking it can't be that accurate. Get your cleaning done yesterday?

Sara, I tought kickboxing for the longest! I loved it! I did a class at a local gym where we got to hit bags, though, so there was very little hi/lo. I did a lot of calesthenics and drills and had a bootcamp theme to a lot of my classes. I still lead my friends when they want to do yoga, which I think is very fun, too! I am also a certified spin intructor, which is way cool! But I don't use it anymore. I don't know why, though? And you are right, it was a GORGEOUS day in Indiana yesterday, wasn't it?

Susan, love the pics!!! You have to tell us more about Mexico!!!

Lori... looks like I saved the best for last. do you have a gore-tex jacket so that you can run outside? Hubby's gotta be able to hook you up, right? Where do you sleep while you are at work. I think that I asked, but I forgot... on a recliner or something? I imagine it would be hard to sleep at work. But you get paid to sleep, that is something, huh?

Well, I am off to get the day started, I will talk to you lovely ladies later!

Missy
 
Hey Ladies!

Lori-Sorry you were left alone to talk to yourself this morning!:p

Missy-Enjoy that treadmill and that DH of yours!}( }(

I'm actually up earlier than I've been all week! My schedule is all messed up. I've been going to bed around midnight and getting up around 8:30-9:00 since I got sick....now that I'm feeling better I was able to get my a$$ out of bed around 7:30. Could have been earlier but I STILL went to sleep after midnight last night.:-(

I have to go to my mom's earlier than usual today. She is having a test done where they put her to sleep so she'll need a "responsible adult" with her while she recovers from the anesthesia....what I wanna know is...since when am ***I*** considered a "responsible adult"??? Just cause I have a child doesn't mean I'm responsible!!!!:p :p :p ;) ;) ;) :) LOL So anywhooo, I gotta get outta here right after Joey eats lunch today. I need to stop at the post office on the way to ship the recent ebay auction items out as well...

So I was checkin' out my belly in the mirror this morning...something I often do as I am obsessed with getting a stomach that I can show off and not be embarrassed about!!! And what do ya freakin' know...I LOVED WHAT I SAW! Flat, curvey, definition...everything I have always wanted! I could were a pair of proper fitting low rise pants and a crop top and NOT be embarrassed! YEE HAW!:+ :7 :+ Is it improper to ^5 oneself? :p

So today is 60-90 minutes of pure cardio...the rotation calls for 3 ctx cardios but I'm going to mix it up...I'm going to do a CTX, a Step Till You Drop 2 Segment and a rebounder workout. I'm actually gonna get started soon...gonna do part this morning and the rest at nap time.:)

Okay well I fear I've babbled on too long here! LOL
 
OMGosh, Wendy, I am so sorry I forgot you!!! That doesn't mean that you are forgettable, only that I am forgetful! I am so sorry! As you can tell from my post that I have much on my mind (when don't I, really? :p ) but I didn't mean to slight you. Will you ever forgive me? :D How can you resist that sweet smile? :D :D :D

Ooh! I have another picture for you girls! It is of Logan eating GS cookies with a Dennis the Menace hair style going on, it is so cute! I will upload it here now that my bf is done (steel oats and berries :9 delicious! ) Check my trail in about ten minutes, okay? I think that I may even change it to my avatar. I only change that about every other week! :p

Lori, aren't you tired? I think that your dogs are so funny! Poor Chico! does he get grumpy with Charlie? That little stinker!

Missy

ETA check it out now. He is so cute! there were some better pix, but they were so blurry! :(
 
Missy! That pic is so cute! hahahaha! He doesn't look like he is worried to much about it though.And I saw the pic of you when you were heavier.Was that just b/c of the baby pounds? Never knew.
Yes, Chico get super grumpy.But he rarely ever hurts him.Charlie won't let chico have ANY attention at all.I swear when he is upstairs he can hear you touching him and he runs down.Most days he spends his time behind chico biting his tail, trying to get chico to chase him.And it usually works.And even if they start playing and Chico hurts him..he still comes back for more.Im telling you, if he was a person, he wouldn't have very many friends cause he is to annoying!:)

Wendy, I guess someone thinks you are responsible.Not good when you still feel like a child though! LOL Glad your happy with what you are seeing, its nice when your hard work finally pays off!Have fun with all that cardio.

I just finished 8 intervals from Imax 3 and thats all the energy I could muster up.Im not lazy, and Im not sleepy, Im just blah.But my afternoon nap will bring me to life!!!
So, I am going to go do GS legs now.I had to have snack cause me was hungry!
Lori:)
 
Hey Girls!

Missy - that picture is ADORABLE!!! I think it's awesome how much you love your DH. You really just don't hear that enough from people these days. My DH and I get along so well and we love spending time together and I ocassionally take heat for that (as if it's anyone's business!!!).

Lori - I can't believe you ONLY did 8 intervals from Imax 3! You lazy girl. JUST KIDDING! I think that's great. Don't be so hard on yourself. You're supposed to be taking it easy, remember? Or have you totally forgotten the doctor's orders?

Wendy - I'm am SO impressed with your progress! You rock! We'll be waiting for some new pics of those abs. Your rotation must be working. You're going to be in better shape now than you were before getting pregnant with Joey. You're already weighing less, aren't you?

I did a Spinervals workout this morning and then stayed on the bike for an additional 20 minutes (the workout is only 40 minutes but it's a kick butt 40 minutes!) to make it an hour. I'm starting my one body part a week workout on Monday. Wish me luck!!!

My mom is having knee replacement surgery this morning. She needs to have both knees done, but they only wanted to do one at a time so as not to stress her heart (she had heart valve replacement surgery a year ago due to a birth defect - but all her arteries were clear other than that - she went blind in one eye overnight which is how they found the defect and her eyesight in that eye will never return, but she could have had a stroke, so she was lucky).

Have a great day ladies!

Just got back from lunch with DH! We went to an Italian resaurant where they have the BEST bread and olive oil dip! Logan was sitting and DH lap after dinner and they were cuddling and it just struck me how much they look alike. They are almost identical! It is amazing! Anyways, on the way home I stopped at the store and got some stuff to make pizza for us tonight. They also had tulips and hyacinths, so of course I had to get some!!! I got blue hyacinth and white tulips to put in our bathroom. It smells so good in there! And it looks really sharp, too, since our bathroom is periwinkle with white floors and a black counter. Very sharp!

Lori, yes, that is my baby weight. I ate so much, I was such a pig and I had horrible gall bladder problems because of it. Luckily I didn't have to have mine removed, but I was nasty. I had a huge belly even four months after I had him, my arms were so fat and my thighs... ugh. Just two trunks of cottage cheese. I am sorta happy that I was there, though, because now I know what it feels like, and I never want to go back. There is always a positive to every negative, huh? :)

Susan, good luck on your one body part a day! What DVDs are you planning on doing? And what kind of bike do you have? I want a Johnny G. Spinner V-bike, those are awesome! They are really expensive, though.
Isn't it great when you can enjoy your marriage and your husband? Life is so much easier and happier, isn't it? There are things about him that annoy me to no end, but why focus on that? I know how lucky I am. I hate to see couples fight about the stupidest things and hold grudges, probably because I have been there though. So let people razz you. You are happy, so you already showed them! :p

HI Gals!

Im just getting ready to go out for dinner.My MIL called and she was feeling that same way as I am...to lazy to cook so we are going out for pizza:p If you recall my trip to Montreal was pizza..pizza..pizza so I can do with out.But I won't whine, Ill just go:)

Susan, Sorry to hear about your mom? Does she live close by?
You sound like you had a good workout today.Better then my pathetic 8 intervals:7 LOL Good luck with you one body part per day and we want PICTURES!! Progress pics!
We should all post pics at the end of March.Whata say girls? Up for the challenge?????:) :) What was that? Did I hear feet scatter????:)

Missy, wow...I didn't know you were that heavy before.Look at all you have accomplished and you didn't want to post pics? You should be ashamed of yourself.I was 152 when I went in to have DD and was 130 when I left the hospital! 1 week later I was into my size 26 jeans.I wonder where they are now? I wouldn't fit this butt into the now thats for sure.I think I lived on Nutrigrain bars! LOL

Anyway, I should go get dressed.I was so tempted to go for a small run outside.But I was short on time but it as warmed up a little.Probably b/c there is a storm comming;( ;(
Oh, I also did GS legs today to.It burned like CRAZY! Me and cathe haven't been having a real good relationship the last couple of days;-)
