Goodmorning melters.
Deb, I hope you can get your life back on schedule. I did pretty well the first week back from vacation, but last week and this past weekend was terrible, as far as health and fitness goes. I'm with you in hoping to get back on track this week.
Allison, sorry you can't get a new car right now. My DH decided a few years ago that he'd never buy a brand new car again. So far, we've had pretty good luck with used cars. Of course, he and his best friends know a thing or two about cars. If it was just me, it would be a brand new car as often as I could swing it. Did the antibiotic induced nausea pass? I enjoyed your insider info on Tracey. It was such a thrill to meet both of you last year, as well as Cathe and the crew. I felt like I was really rubbing shoulders with the fitness elite!
Leanne, did you post a picture of your haircut? I hope you like it. I love the ease of my short hair. I'm sure you are lovely.
Kristi, I'm glad the girls got home safe and sound. Tristan is my 24 year old son. He has Prader Willi Syndrome and lives in a group home a couple hours away from us.
Tneah, LOL at your DH's retirement/boat planning. Sounds like a lovely way to dream though. I think I would like to live on a boat for 3 to 6 months of the year. We have a beta fish at work. His name it Bob. He's the feistiest one I've ever seen.
Shelley, sounds like you had a busy weekend. I'm sorry that Karen wasn't up to visitors. When does she go to the doctor? It was early this week, wasn't it?
Hi Lainie. Are your teeth feeling better?
Shannon, how was your weekend?
I better get headed to work. I'll see you all later.

Hi..I'm back,
We took Kelsey for her walk and her "alone" time with us. She is really feeling the annoyance of Keegan whenever he is around her. He starts puppy class tonight. We'll see how that goes LOL
Tneah:
I think yu are on the road to the big "M"..you have the signs! I feel the same way you do about living on a boat...how do you do your Cathe workouts? Are you excited about the Florida trip? Get ready for a lot of humidity! Does your hair stay ok in humidity? Mine becomes a frizzy mess!
Allison:
Good for you for sleeping in! I love Stephanie Plum books too!
Robin:
How nice you were able to see that recital, even though you cried through some of it..
Lainie:
I think your rotations look good. What do you buy on all your Target trips anyway?
Kristi:
Your trip sounds like fun..your DD's should have a great time!
Leanne:
Need to see those hair pics and the bracelet!
Have to go...sorry if I missed people...bbl

Good morning, all, and happy-start-of-the-week!
I got up at 5:15 again this morning, and am dragging. DH didn't get home until 11:00 last night from his gaming group, and I couldn't fall asleep until he got here, which means that I'm sleep-deprived again. I'll try to post some photos of the hair today, although I'm really still not sure if I'm comfortable with how it looks. Ah, well!
Today is a rest day, so I might do some yoga. Do any of you have Rainbeau Mars' Yoga for Dawn and Dusk? I'd been wanting it for awhile since I'd heard good things about it, and they just lowered the price on Amazon to $10, so I bought it last week. I did the Dusk last night, and it was really nice and relaxing and not too strenuous, with lots of hip openers. I think I'll try the Dawn one later this morning.
Deb -- Glad you're feeling better and are back on track with your workouts! Isn't it nice to be back into the swing of things?! So will you and DH both bring Keegan to puppy class tonight? Will it be a lot of work to train him? Glad that Kelsey had some alone time; it sounds like she needed it!
Robin -- Glad you had a great weekend! Sounds like it was busy, but nice. And don't worry -- you'll get back on track with your eating today! You gotta enjoy those moments with family and loved ones, even if it involves too much cake and pizza!
Allie -- Way to go on that workout this morning! Are you feeling better? Hope so!
Shelley -- Waving "hi" to you! Sounds like you had such a busy weekend. Are things going better with Chris' work? Will you keep us posted when Karen hears back from the pathologist this week?
I'll BBL to say "hi" to everyone else!

I'm back!
I'm draggin' from that workout this morning. I think I pushed a little too hard and now I can barely stay awake. x(
Leanne--that yoga workout sounds great. I've never gotten into yoga but I like all the hip opening stuff. My hips get so tight, it's ridiculous. Your day yesterday sounds hectic but fun! Pictures, please of the hair!!!
Deb--good luck with Keegan tonight at Puppy Class. So cute.
Robin--your weekend sounds so nice. Busy but nice. Now you're making me want pizza and ice cream!
I ended up hitting the jackpot at Express and Old Navy yesterday. I got some awesome clothes and hit a bunch of sales. I'm so excited! I also vacuumed, did three loads of laundry, changed the cat's litter, did my nails, and got a good night's sleep. Plus my eating was spot-on. Yesterday was a good day. I wish I could repeat it today.
Ok, I've got to get back to work. See ya!

Hey Allie -- Hooray for finding good bargains yesterday! I'm such a bargain shopper, and love it when I get good deals. Did you find some cute new stuff for summer? Did you get a chance to use your gift cards? Sounds like you had a busy, and productive day, and I'm so glad that you're not feeling quite as blue. My hips get really tight, too, which ends up killing my low back. I think I'm going to use Kara's idea of just making myself do yoga few times a week, whether I want to or not! I always feel so good once I get started, but am usually too tired to start!
Where has Shannon been? Are you alright? We miss you!!

Hi, all,
I just lost my post because my computer has this darling new habit of turning itself off or restarting itself randomly! x( My washer is on its last leg; my computer is acting very strange; DH had to take his car in this morning for a variety of problems -- UGH!!! Anyway, I hope everyone's Monday is off to a good start. Things are quiet around here because the girls are counselors at theatre camp all week from 7:30-5:30-ish. I'll do GS Legs & KPC abs in a bit. I also desperately need to get to the grocery store today.
Leanne --My DD quickly noticed all the protein yesterday! It was hilarious -- I got totally busted! You've got a fun, busy week ahead, girlfriend! Have fun "window shopping" today -- with the IL's coming on Thurs., you may need some retail therapy today. How long will your MIL & FIL be staying with you? Take advantage of your rest day -- esp. since you are sleep-deprived!
Robin -- it sounds like you had a busy, but very pleasant weekend. That coal mine tour sounds really interesting! It also sounds like you had several very touching moments throughout the weekend. I'm glad it was nice.
Deb -- I'm glad you seem to be feeling a bit better. Dance Fit sounds fun! It's so cute how you ensure that you have one on one time with your dogs; I've had to work the last 15 years to ensure that with my DDs. I'm with you and Robin about getting back on track -- since the Challenge last week I have been eating with too much abandon -- sort of using "recovery" as an excuse, but now it's time to get back in the groove -- at least for a few days before we go on vacation. Here's to a good, healthy week for all of us!
Allison -- you rock! way to go on the iTread! hope you have another good day!
Good morning to Shelley, Tneah, & Lainie!
Kara & Shannon -- I hope you had nice weekends; we've missed you!

Morning All!
Deb, oh no! Not the "M" word already? I am only 42 and not ready to get into all of that stuff.:7 My periods have always been like this ever since I can remember, it just all comes out in two days leaving me drained and anemic. So I take iron pills and in a few days am back to normal. But the night sweats and the raging PMS could very well be signs huh? Whatcha gonna do right? Oh I loved taking Georgie to puppy school! He excelled at the obstacle course the little darling.:7 Keegan will be a very good student I am sure. How fun! Glad you are getting back on track, something I need to do this week as well.
Robin, that was so cool having your daughters boyfriend surprising you like that...your daughters BF right? And Leanne is right, you will look back and have all those fond memories of friends and family, including all the fun and food you shared. Just whip out your workouts this week and do not give it another thought!
Shelley, good morning sunshine!:7 Don't ya hate it when people say that?:+
Kristi, I have to check, but I think Mercury is in retrograde for awhile which means all things electronic get screwed up really easy, especially anything related to communications as Mercury is the god of communications...he is the winged messenger,,and that was everyone's little astrology lesson for the day.:7 Mercury rules on of my signs, so it really effects me alot, I lost emails, my computer crashes, etc...sounds like you will be joining the rest of us in our attempt at clean eating and hitting the workouts hard this week!
Leanne, you really need to show us that adorable haircut please! Sorry you did not get good sleep last night, I cannot function without sleep...at all. I need 8 hours or I am worthless the next day! You are so good to do yoga, and you are right about the low back thing due to tight hips, I think I am the same way and will be adding more of the Bliss Hips to my own workouts. Are you going shopping today?? Victorias Secret is having their annual sale, maybe you can find some sexay panties or jammies?
Allison, yeah for your bargains! I do not go into Express very much, not sure why, oh, yeah, the one here in Vegas is in the "ghetto mall" a place that I do not like to frequent due to the gang bangers hanging around everywhere....yeah, its not that safe. So whatcha buy?
Hey to Shannon, we missed ya girl, Kara, Lainie...
Am feeling much better this morning after my lazy day yesterday. Wow. I have not been that lazy in a long time..well actually since my last period that is. I am going to skip the Red Carpet this week and do Leg Blast--just cause you all did it last week and I am a copycat...and PUB for my upper body. Thursday we leave for Florida...yeah, my hair frizzes bad...and will be gone for three days, I will not be working out at all so will use the next three days to really hit it hard.
Ok, off to do Spinervals this morning...then Leg Blast tonight...

Hello chicas!
Robin - the recital sounds lovely! I would have cried to! And I would have cried harder when I saw Jay! That's so sweet! I wish he didn't have to go back though!
Allie - 7 miles? Yikes! How long does that take you? WTG on the shopping yesterday! I need to go shopping. I hate all my summer tops. I'm fine for bottoms, but all my tops are eons old and look it. Very out of style.
Deb - good luck at puppy class! I bet Kelsey really likes her time with you and DH. What kind of tournament did your dad's wife go to play in?
Leanne - I could never get into yoga. I always get weird neck pain after doing it, so I stopped. Funny you should ask about Chris' work, because at the conference, he was awarded Employee of the year and got a big bonus! So I guess they won't be firing him anytime soon, huh? Plus he came home with a Mohawk haircut It's kinda sexay, actually
Kristi - I love your terminology - your computer has a "darling" new habit... Where are you going on vacation?

Tneah -- thank you for the astrology lesson -- seriously!!! I had a long time hair stylist who was very knowledgeable about that, and he really gave me some good insight into some stuff that was going on with DH. Sadly, I had to leave him (the stylist, not DH ) because he only did my hair his way and never listened to what I wanted. We were together for 7 years, though.
Shelley -- you sensed the sarcasm, I trust. We are going to Chicago, a city I've come to love, love in the last 3 years, but the girls haven't been.
I hope this posts because I'm doing a virus scan on the little bugger right now.

Hey all!
Just a quick check-in before I head back to bed for a little nap! Yes, I know it's only 8:15 in the morning here, but I just got an email that my friend has to re-schedule lunch, so I figure that a morning nap would be perfect!! ;-)
Kristi -- Oh, I hate when my computer loses things! Sometimes I'll type up a long post to our group or a long email in Word (an compulsively save it every five seconds) so nothing can get lost. I'm so excited for you to go to Chicago, but we'll miss you and Tneah this week! We lived in Indiana for three years (just three hours south of Chicago), and every single time we tried to go to Chicago, something came up (Mike's mom in the hospital twice, etc.). I'm so bummed that we never made it there! Glad the girls liked the new protein powder! I'm hoping that just MIL will be staying over the weekend; step-FIL is *supposed* to be staying with Mike's grandma. (He's VERY odd, and even Mike can only handle him in small doses.) Glad you just left the stylist, and not Todd. ;-)
Tneah -- You are seriously so smart and knowledgeable about so much! Now when Mercury is in retrograde, isn't it a good time to relax and re-charge? So that means that you shouldn't kill yourself this week before leaving for Florida. Seriously, babe -- spinning AND Leg Blast in one day?! You won't be able to walk later! Let's both try to do more yoga still, OK? I'm hoping that the night sweats are just related to the thyroid issue, and that they'll get better for you! Can't wait to see photos of you and Mitch in those gorgeous new dresses!
Shelley -- OMG -- a mohawk! SEXAY! Post some photos of you and Chris, pretty please! If you do, then I will, too. How awesome, too, that he was voted Employee of the Year! You need to celebrate!}(

Just choking down a protein shake I made with apple pectin..uh, yeah, that is a fiber that gets extremely thick and actually kinda gross, its supposed to latch onto extra carbs and fat in your system and "escort" them out before they get a chance to wind up on your arse, but let me tell ya, this stuff is gross. I am always adding stuff to my protein shakes and ruining them!x(
Shelley, how fun! I bet Chris does look sexy with the mohawk. Are you guys still planning on the Vegas trip in September? Hope so! And congrats to SO on the raise too...sounds like you need to use a little of that and go summer top shopping...I just wear plain old Gap tee's on most days, I also like bohemian tops those 70's look ones? You can find 'em cheap at Old Navy and stuff...Canada has Old Navy?
Kristi, so what is your sign? I know Shelley is an Aries, Robin is a Gemini, oh shoot, I forgot now, Leanne what are you and when is your birthday??
OK...enough of all that, I started planning my Florida wardrobe, I hate packing but love putting together outfits. I have chosen to go with my beloved "bohemian-hippie" (I am such a wanna-be)look for two days and the next a more nautical look...I have these high waist white shorts with a sailor pant look,they come to mid-thigh so they hide the nasty stuff...well except my knees, I may not have wrinkles on my face,,, they all went to my knees!
I will wear them with those rattan/navy patent wedges I got? And a navy halter top or a red cotton twill tied at the waist...I love clothes, they make me very happy:7 I love planning outfits, its so much fun...and then my pretty dresses for the rehearsal dinner and the wedding....I am getting excited, I get to see my favorite person in the world, Mitch's momma.I love Mitch's mom so much. She stands about 4'10 a little smart spitfire Jewish woman who walks with a cane and points with it. You will be walking with her, she will stop mid-sentence and start pointing her cane to emphasis a point she is making.:7 Gosh I love her!She is a very young 86 years old, does her nails, is concerned about wardrobe like I am...so cute.
OK, now I really need to get it going...and yes! Shelley and Leanne need to start posting some pictures already darn it!

I have chosen to go with my beloved "bohemian-hippie" (I am such a wanna-be)look for two days and the next a more nautical look...I have these high waist white shorts with a sailor pant look,they come to mid-thigh so they hide the nasty stuff...well except my knees, I may not have wrinkles on my face,,, they all went to my knees!
I will wear them with those rattan/navy patent wedges I got? And a navy halter top or a red cotton twill tied at the waist...I love clothes, they make me very happy:7 I love planning outfits, its so much fun...and then my pretty dresses for the rehearsal dinner and the wedding....I am getting excited, I get to see my favorite person in the world, Mitch's momma.I love Mitch's mom so much. She stands about 4'10 a little smart spitfire Jewish woman who walks with a cane and points with it. You will be walking with her, she will stop mid-sentence and start pointing her cane to emphasis a point she is making.:7 Gosh I love her!She is a very young 86 years old, does her nails, is concerned about wardrobe like I am...so cute.
OK, now I really need to get it going...and yes! Shelley and Leanne need to start posting some pictures already darn it!

I promise I'm not just sitting here at my computer -- I've just kept checking on the virus scan.
Tneah -- you are just so cute & hilarious! You are lucky to be blessed with an MIL that you like (and who likes you, I assume)!
I want to see pics of you and your darling outfits! I am a scorpio -- Oct. 30.
ETA: May I complain just a teensy bit? The $90 problem with Todd's car is actually a $500 problem! UGH!!! Okay -- I'm finished, thank you!

Kristi - sure, sure you're not just sitting there Oh I HATE car problems. I have to take mine in tomorrow and I'm hoping it's nothing major. Ugh.
Tneah - girl, you just crack me up. I'm howling about your protein shake yuckiness! I wish you were here to come shopping with me. I wish you were ALL here to come shopping with me! I'm terrible at shopping! Your MIL sounds really great!
Leanne - oh dear, I hope step FIL does stay with Grandma. Odd is not good in a houseguest.
I shall endeavour to get a decent picture of Chris and I so you can see the mohawk. Now, keep in mind that his hair is normally about a quarter inch long, so right now, the mohawk part is about a quarter inch long and the rest is just mostly stubble. I still think it's sexay}( He told me he'd keep it for a bit.
My boss is driving me crazy today.

Hey there,
Just got back from lunch. I feel yucky again. All morning my head's been killing me and my eyes are buring. I guess I didn't sleep as well as I thought I did last night. I'm beyond exhausted. Plus I have to meet with my study group tonight after work to prepare for this week's class and that will go for at least three hours. My group has to give a huge presentation this week. x( Blech.
I may or may not post again today. I'm so tired I can barely think of anything to say. I'll be lurking tho.
Shelley and Leanne--get a move on those pics, women!

Shelley, high five Mr Mohawkpants for me on the award and the sexay hairdoo!
Allie, way to go shopping etc. Sounds like you were very busy too.
Tneah, glad to hear you enjoyed a day of rest. Your outfits for FL sound wonderful. Take pictures please.
I couldn't take pictures of Tris. We weren't allowed to photograph during the show, and after was such a crush and we were in a hurry to hit the road. He brought home some professional photos, but I'm not sure where they ended up. I'll have to look.
Kristi, $500 car repair. Ouch!
Leanne, did the nap help?
I'm not sure what workout I'll be doing the afternoon. I should do legs, but as I'm sure I've mentioned, I HATE legs. I have to run a bunch of errands after work too. Sigh, I also HATE errands.

Hi guys! I am sorry that I haven't been around. The house is a disaster (literally) and I have Emma 24/7 this week, so my computer time is limited. I will try to pop in when I can though!
Have a good day!
Shannon--I just downloaded CC8!!!!
