howdy...had a really productive morning. lots of experiments (we'll see if they worked out ok in 2-3 days) and got for a nice time at the gym. The gym has personal tvs at almost every cardio machine so I can get my cable political fix for an hour while I'm there. saw a former student while I was getting ready to leave so it was nice to see how she was doing.
Vilma -- thanks for asking how I'm doing! I'm much better, bug buddy! The norovirus was more annoying than anything else. Other people got much sicker than me (I think the count is now like 700+ kids) but I could for the most part get through it. I'm sorry about the gloves. I had tried getting weight lifting gloves when I was doing a lot of circuits but I ended up returning them. I wanted them so when I grabbed some of my DH's dumbbells, it wouldn't irritate me so much but then if I had to gloves on during the cardio sections, my hands would itch furiously. Sorta defeated the purpose.

But at least you played with your KB. I overheard the staff at the school gym talking about stocking up the MPR with kettlebells so I'm looking forward to trying them out there.
Beth -- LOL (about the virgin)! And omigosh, I wanna steal your dog. She looks so regal! Hey, now its getting cold(er) you can maybe get a puppy footwarmer. I used to make my dog sit on my feet as I read in the fall time and she was by far the best footwarmer I've ever had in my life. Fuzzy, warm, and everyonceinawhile, a nice scratchy lick on my toes. Squee! So cute.
Chris -- well, I'm glad that headache went away! so, when you say that food makes it better...and sleep makes it better...could it possibly be like a drop in your blood sugar? I'm not diabetic (everyone on my mother's side is) but I remember having headaches like that. I once grabbed my mother's testing device and yeah, when I got those headaches it was much lower that I usually have it (also my BP was lower too...I already have low BP but it really drops when I get these headaches). The sleep might be giving you time to regulate the levels or something. Still, I feel totally silly in saying any of this to you since you probably checked since your a nurse and a mom so you are most likely an expert!! But it came to my head so I thought I'd write it down.
Kathy - hope you had fun with the dome challenge!
Alrighty, hope you all had a good day!
