Good morning ladies...

Still feeling good..I have got some housecleaning to do today and I will do some more cardio as well. Yesterday I did Kari Anderson's push. It was just what I needed, a low key step workout. I didn't do the hi/lo portion of the workout though. Today I thought I might pull out an Amy Bento. Maybe I will try Rumble. I can't remember if I have done that one since I got it.. I think I was doing STS the last time and put it on the shelf and forgot about it. So, either that or one of her hi/lo DVDs...

It is still rainy here. Chris' baseball game got cancelled last night. We did get to the library. Today Lauren has her Book Club meeting and Chris and I are going to get over to Target!

Ok, time to get the kids going on there days...Be back later!

Good morning!

I was kind of disappointed to get up and STILL feel some good DOMS in my lower body still. Plus I'm just tired/fatigued. I think because it's TTOM for me, which , I should be grateful, I "only" get super tired during.

Today is going to be DISC 8, Back & Triceps for me. And then I'm going to head out to get a movie for tonight's movie night (with our new Bose surround sound, which is SUPER cool!) and then do grocery shopping.

Oh yes, snow actually fell from the sky this morning, the boys were all excited. To be a kid again, I swear! Alex was saying, "If it snows all day like this, we won't have school tomorrow!" Even funnier, since tomorrow is Saturday!! Funny boy!

Kathy: Sounds like you got some good cardio to do. It's always fun to find new forgotten workouts! I have some Jillians I'm going to look forward to doing after this round of STS!

Okay, better go get motivated... and do my STS for the day!!!

BBL!

Hi ladies!! Well, a rest day for me. From workouts at least. Yesterday I was just so tired and sore everywhere! I'm not sure from what. My legs are sore from the new CLX I did, I think. There were some different leg stuff in there. I just felt like I needed a rest. So, I set the alarm later. Woke up at 4:00 and couldn't go back to sleep. Now I'm tired and I didn't work out!

Kathy, it's fun to pull out old workouts sometimes. I have Rumble, but have never done it either. It didn't get great reviews, but I'm curious to hear how you like it if you do it. Raining here, too. For the 3rd or 4th day in a row - I've lost count.

Hoping this icky weather clears up for football tomorrow. For your walk, too, Chris.

Chris, yikes, snow already?! My kids have already been pining for snow days. Colin keeps asking when the sky is dark if it's cold enough to snow. I'd like to get through Halloween before snow comes. Colin decided he wants to be a gnome. The only costume we could find after searching online for almost two hours last night, was the travelocity gnome and it's kind of cheesy. I did find him a hat and beard on ebay that I have to show him tonight that would work with the rest of the costume. I wish I was creative and handy enough to make costumes. Caitlyn now wants to be Hannah Montana for school and a witch for trick or treating. Yes, sap that I am, ordered both costumes. The witch was on sale for only $12. I ordered Ian's MJ stuff last night. Just have to find him a jacket and pants. Jameson wanted to be Oscar the Grouch, but the costume was $80! Nope, not happening!

Hi Beth, Vilma, Hottie....come talk to us!!

Hey! It's been crazy.... still way behind.... though our power is back on (not everyone's is!), our internet got hosed, so I only have connection at work. Hopefully Larry'll get that fixed today.

Chris, funny about the no school comment! I could see my kids saying the same thing in the excitement. You know what's crazy? We had all that rain, and it was sort of cold -- 50s, I guess. Well, yesterday it was 78!!! I was at a meeting last night and driving home at 8:30pm it was still 72! Really nutsy weather.

I did KCM's plyo and standing body training workouts today. You know my comments about the Cathe observation? It wasn't so much that I'm burned out on Cathe, I don't think, but more that when I try to get excited about workouts, it's more the non-Cathe that excite me. I started thinking about why that might be and I think I may just be afraid of the weight work after what happened. I dunno.... always pondering this stuff.

Got to keep this short.... my kids don't have school today so they're here at the office with me. Chris, good luck with the walk tomorrow!

HI everyone..

Checking in with Amy Bento's Rumble...I didn't like this workout. I didn't feel like I did anything. I can't see myself doing that one again...

Joanne: I can see why Rumble didn't get good reviews. I thought it was aweful. If you ever get to it, I would be curious to know your take on it...

Beth: Hope you get your internet working again...

Chris: Enjoy that movie!!

Hey Girls!

Just a quick check in, the boys are getting ready for the movie.

I did DISC 8, Back L& Triceps. STS really really pushes me. I love these workouts even better than last time.

I'm pooped though. Did a bunch of baking (healthy!) and cooking and I'll probably fall asleep watching the movie..LOL!

Kathy: Sorry you hated the workout! That craps!!!!

Joanne: OMG, I saw a costume at Walmart for a Gnome. It might have been for a smaller kid though. It was so funny! And I'm with you, I just have to buy costumes (well, mostlly reasonable). You'll have to take pictures of your kids!!. Alex decided on a black robed spooky guy, with glowing red eyes, you can't see the face, just the glowing eyes. Jake is going to be Bumblebee from The Transformers (Got both of those from target.com). And then Zach is going to be Ace Freehly (sp?) from KISS. Got the wig and mask from Walmart. PLUS, I ordered a black tophat and mirror aviator glasses so Alex can wear it to a Bday party next weekend, and go as his favorite rockstar: SLASH (from Guns n Roses!).

Beth: You're right, you did get burned by Cathe. I don't blame you for being "over her" for a while. (that sounds kind of funny, doesn't it? LOL). I was pissed when I hurt my calf during her step. Pissed that they did SO many moves that pulled on that area of the leg. YAY for plyo today! ... Oh the walk is Sunday!... the ONLY day they say is going to rain for sure this weekend. PRAY they are wrong and the storm blows out to Boston!!!!

okay, it's movie time!!!!
