Hey Wendy! What's happening? I worked 5-11:30 last night! The night flew by! It was my first night shift and getting the boys home from school, doing homework, giving them supper and getting out of the house in an hour was no easy task tho. I'm glad I don't have to do that everyday. Today I'm 9:30-2:30 and I'm off tomorrow so I'm looking forward to that.
How's it going? I didn't get to read any threads yesterday. How's your rotation? I saw tho you lost more! Good for you! You are doing great! I'm off to work out so I don't have to rush too much to get out of here. GSCT and abs from ME today. Those abs are good ones. I guess! LOL!
Good morning to Lori, Missy and Charlotte and whoever else checks in here too! Have a good day ladies!

Hey Kali! 
I miss you on here since you've been workin', girl!
You worked until 11:30pm!? What time does that store close??? They can't possibly be on Holiday hours yet, are they (open late for Christmas shoppers)!?!?
The rotation I'm doing is going well, thanks. Obviously it's doing something as I'm losing weight and body fat on it! :7
Today calls for Cardio Kicks. I'm not looking forward to all of the high impact moves in that one today but I can always modify when needed.
On Monday BM was on the schedule but I could only manage the upper body and abs from it that night so yesterday I did the power circuits from BM and followed it right up with Step Fit. THAT was a work out! PHEW! }( }( I nixxed the step only section to save some time though. I must tell ya though...for a step w/o that I was frustrated with at first, I really like it now!
ETA:Well, my HRM officially died. x( Needs new batteries...PHOOEY! Maybe I should just buy a new one-I can do it right and buy a Polar!! LOL....no...I would never do that...DH would kick my butt! I can't even justify asking for a Polar HRM for Christmas b/c the one I have is still so new...maybe for my B'day, we'll see.
I'm going to my aunt's today for a visit. Should be fun. Been trying to get over there for a week now and it should finally happen today. lol
How's everyone else this morning? Hear about Hurricane Wilma? WTF!? Strongest hurricane on record in the atlantic to date is headed for Florida!!!AAAAHHH!x(

Oh, I have been up for a while...just haven't made it here yet!:-( If my day doesn't start to go a little better, I might go back to bed!
I brought DD to school and as soon as I got home the phone rings.She has a book fair and as no money.So I ask DH if he can get his lazy ass (yes...Im gonna write it this time!x( )out of bed, and run up to the school with the money, mainly b/c I didn't know where her class room was.So he as this theroy that his body CANNOT move until he as a shower.So, in other words, he can't get up there until he is showered, shaved, dressed....you get the pic, instead of hoping out of bed, putting a ball hat on and moving for 5 min before he can get in the shower.SO I go, a hurricane Lori goes! And now she is not impressed!
Not to mention I have been a good girl lately and that stupid scale isn't moving.Im soon gonna start to cry.I almost threw it out the patio door!
Regardless, I will be back at it today.Im doign shoulders, BC and a run.I am going to get on the treadmill after every interval blast, I am not sure how long.10 min would be so awesome b/c I would be doing a 80 min run plus BC.But I may just do 5 min after every interval.We will see.

Hey, now! I am an hour behind you, young lady! I got up at six our time and had to get my nephew settled in (this is my early and long day) so !!! :+ Sorry I never got back on, I passed out last night! Work hard, sleep hard. And pms. Ugh, it sucks. What is it about PMS that just makes you sleepy and b*tchy?
I will not be on much today because I do have quite a bit to do. Nathan is still little so he is high maintanence. But I do love him so much!!! He is all smiles this morning but around 11 he starts missing his mommy, and I have him until 5:30 so it will be a loooooong day. I will try to get a cardio in, it will be a short one, though, so I think that CTX is on the menu for today.
Kali, are you enjoying work? When my sister's semester is over, I would love to go back to school! I miss doing stuff that doesn't involve kids or cleaning. I am ready for something for me!
Lori, how was visit with MIL?
Charlotte, how are you feeling today?
Missy

Good Morning Lovelies!!!
You all are the best. I read all your post last night and I was really touched that you all took the time to let me know you are thinking of me. That really means alot to me. I was having a bad day, but it turned out good. I did eat yesterday, but I just didn't feel like it, but I made myself. My DH and I just want the best for our children so we had a long talk with DD and it was a good one. There was alot of emotion involved, but we all felt better after talking. It helps to pray about it too, something I need to practice more.
Today I am going to do tri's and bi's and then chest and back and 800 crunches this evening. I have to mow today too. The grass is really high.
Charlotte~~

HAHAHAHA Im killing myself!:7 :7 :7 :7 Hugh will buy you a new car after that!
Kali- I am gald you are enjoying your job.How are you and DH now? Did he decide if he is going away?
Missy- You have 3 kids right? And how old are they again? You amaze me.You never complain.If that were me, Id be complaining,complaining,complaining...cause I want time for me,me,me!!!:+ But you love what you do.My ideal sitaution right now would be Wendys.I would like to have another but we have been 4 yrs with no birthcontrol...so I think there is something wrong.My daughter is in school all day and I would like to have a little one to cart around,then when they go for their nap,I can workout...see, Id be just like Wendy Plus, iwouldn't get out of bed until 10!

Charlotte- Your feeling better, so where are you? Did you watch the biggest loser last night? When Matt didn't lose a pound I thought he was gonna rip the scale off of the wall....he was so MAD! Then he started to cry so I felt bad for him.What do you expect when your having big lunched 1 in the morning? I was happy Mark only lost 4 lbs though only b/c he was being cocky about it.Looked good on him.

Hey Lori, don't worry...ALL DH's are pain in the a$$ so you are not alone. My DH can be particularly lazy as well! :-(
Be patient as far as the scale goes...and make sure that you are eating often!!!
Hi Missy, how are you? OOPS! You are PMS'ing so I probably shouldn't ask that question as I might get my head bitten off! }( LOL!!! Sounds like you have a busy day ahead of you...enjoy your nephew! How old is he now??
Charlotte, glad to hear about the talk with DD. Happy that you now feel better about that situation. Having fun cutting that grass! Yard work (lawn mowing, weed whacking, etc) are a couple of the few things I leave for DH to do and he can't even keep up with it! LOL

Hey!
Lori,
I am here, don't ya know it???? LOL! I am getting ready to workout too. I responded to your biggest loser post. I hate seeing sappy suzy cry each and everytime the show is on. Nothing wrong with crying every now and then, but everytime. Reminds me of a baby doll I use to have...you pulled the string and baby would cry! LOL! She does have a dollbaby face too. I hate seeing the boobs on the guys and especially when they get excited and the stuff starts flapping in the wind. Makes me cringe! I think the doc on that show is the nicest of the guys though. He is not riding high on ego like Mark.
Time to get sweat now.

Lori, my kids are 8, 6, and 18 months. You have never heard me complain? Huh. Well, I would never complain about them because they are absolutely wonderful, but it is very hard work and I am sure that I have ranted a few times! I do steal some time for myself throughout the day. I visit Lala Land quite a few times while I do dishes and fold clothes. I guess you could say that I get to go on vacation everyday!!! :+ It is definitely challenging to get time to yourself, and reading helps me escape but for the most part, I know this sounds sad, you just get used to it. I don't mind it so much. I guess it isn't hard to give and give to something that you love so much!!! When I look at my kids I feel like what I need really isn't that important compared to what they need. That is not saying that I don't have my MEMEMEMEMEME!!! breakdowns because I do! Dan is really good about taking the kids, usually on Sunday afternoons, so that I can go to Barnes and Nobles or Target and look around. If we have money I go to matinees by me onesies. If I have time for myself, I have to leave the house, though otherwise someone will need something from me, it is guarenteed!
Michele, where are you? Did you get PH in yesterday? Or where your fingers stuck to the keyboard? :+
Charlotte, you are killer, woman! You are rambo! Your DD bf should be afraid of you!!!! Did she respond well to your talk? I know she knows you love her, and you are the greatest mom!

Good morning everyone!!
I'm here Missy . Well...a...no...not exactly. I was a bit glued to the keyboard so I did not get PH in but I did get my cardio in. Missy, I know you're PMSing--please don't yell at me I have to be very diligent today, though. This has to be my only post because I have a class tonight and I have to prepare for it (I'm taking an Italian class). I do need to get the cardio in today as well. Believe it or not, my legs are still sore from the walking lunges I did 2 days ago. It's a good sore though .
I think all of you girls are super moms . Your DH's are D@%! lucky to have you!
Charlotte, I'm so glad you and your DH sat down with your DD. I'll pray that your words continue to sink in over time. I'm sure whatever you said was the right thing.
Kali--Michele here--Pleased to meet you!
Wendy--my goodness, you were up and at it early this morning. Maybe we can protect each other from the wrath of the PMSing Missy--the red tornado! .
Lori, good for you for taking mula to the book fair. Kids understand who's there for them!
You girls have great w/o's today. I'll be thinking of ya. So long until tomorrow.

O.k. all, I am working out. Just taking a breather. Missy, while DH was on business when DD boyfriend was over, DH told me that he wasn't worried that I could kick the boys a$$ if I needed to, but I am no Rambo, not yet at least...still working on it though. LOL!

Hi Girls,
I didn't take any brathers like Charlotte, I thought about it but I thought if I sat at the computer for a sec then that would be it.I wouldn't get back at it!
So I did BC and 5 min runs, which woul dbe 4 miles (40 min)It was a good workout and I was sweating. I just finished my lunch of 3 egg whites,1 egg and 1 1/2 slices of onion bread.Probably not that high on the fiber but it was good.:9
Im not sure what I am going to do this afternoon.I should clean the house and the car.I have to do something, i can't waste a day!
Missy- You get use to it, no doubt about it. When I go to my friends house, (she as 1 3yr old and 1 18 m old)the kids are screaming and she is still carrying on a conversation as if the house was silent.BUt they do bring alot of joy....perferrably when they are sleeping! :+

I am eating a lunch of tuna salad w/ kidney beans on wheat crackers and I will have a peach with it.
I have to find time to workout. It is really hard when little DN is here to do much. I will have to make it work!
Charlotte, are you joking me???? You aren't ever going to age! At the rate you are going, my kids will be in the grave while you are doing pullups hosting the New Years show with that Dick guy!

Huh! I had to take a break from cleaning.I got out of the shower , did my hair and now I am cleaning.I can't clean the floor yet b/c I know I am going to sweat.I hate that.Maybe I can do one room at a time and then take a break.I think the heat is up in the house and thats why I am warmer then usual.I went around and turned the heat down, then opened the door but a stupid hornet flew in.This time of year they are so stun,they fly right at you...I hope he is enjoying his after life...bye,bye hornet!

Lori,
While outside mowing, I seen a praying mantis so I pat it on the back. LOL! They are everywhere. Then I let my dogs play with it so I could keep them occupied while I was weeding. Yes, I have a runner for them, but I ran over it while mowing so now I just let them run free while I am out with them. Then when I came in to potty (LOL), I had a bug attached to the side of my arm. Lucky for me, I was already peeing so I didn't have to pee my pants. LOL! I thought it was a tarantula and I freaked..glad I was at the right place at the right time! OMG!

Thats not good. We don't have those around here.We don't have any big spiders at actually.
This time of year ear wigs (european ones) get into houses.They are trying to find somewhere warm for the winter monthes and that is one bug that gives me the creeps!And they are the kind that bite.Every year around this time, I find 3 or 4 and I lose my marbles. So I took the drapes down in the living room and there was one on there.Its a good thing I was careful when taking them down b/c it could have easily landed in my hair or went down my shirt! I sucked the bugger up with the vacuum, when I emptied the vacuum he was still alive and then he disappeared into the garbage bag.
Hate, hate, hate bugs!
