Good Morning X'ers!

CLASSIC/PHASE 3/WEEK 11/DAY 3-in a holding pattern!;)

Can someone please take a pin and pop my head!? It is sooo filled with slime! ACK! x(

I am considering spin this morning....not cause I need to take that class with this cold but because I want to get the class out of the way this week. I will take it easy if I go...
 
YUCK Wendy - slime!?!?!?:+ You are too funny. I sure hope you are feeling better soon.

I have shoulders and arms w/ARX for today. I was hoping to get it done this morning before we head off to the basketball game, but it was so nice to take it easy and relax this morning that I decided to wait and I'll tackle those after we get back later this afternoon.

I am going to get myself all organized with the Doubles Rotation today and set up a calendar to keep me on track. I'm going to give it my ALL for a month, see the results and 'hopefully' (fingers crossed) I'll have great results and start getting this weight off. Since I've already completed the first Phase of the rotation I'm going right to the heart of it where I add morning workouts in.

HERE WE GO.................

Morning Ladies -
(phase 3 - week 12 - day 4 - my version classic)

Ok .. my schedule got blown away yesterday .. work was a night mare! Is is a full moon?? People are moving all over the place and everyone had a problem .. and it was INSANE in here yesterday. I missed the lunch workout .. was so stressed when I finally got outta here .. did not do the power walk .. taught a kick@$$ cardiokickboxing class .. I looked like a drowned rat when I left!! Poor students suffer when I have a bad day at work!!}(

so now it is make up time .. and rearranging things. Going to do biceps and back at lunch .. and teach an hour long power yoga class tonight~!

Marcia - your circuit class sounded good. Where do you get your music .. I buy mine from Power Music .. already qued BPM for specific workouts and the songs are awesome .. not chipmunk sounding! I have a great circuit format if you want I will share with you! Let me know I can post it or email you .. (I have my email thing disabled here b/c it is my work email and did not want flooded email box would get in trouble w/internet police .. lol.. but will share w/you guys if you want)

Wendy .. even when you are sick you blow me away. OK .. if you have slime and no energy .. lay off .. give it a break ...you don't want to make it worse!! I have major slime/drainage.. but feel FINE .. just allergies.

and the same goes for you Nancy .. if you look sicker than the kids .. LOL .. GO HOME!! REST .. that is an order .. and let me say .. I don't see how you don't constantly stay sick being around kids that are sick .. I swear my BF runs a daycare .. she is immune but strangely enough I will catch whatever bug runs thru her school .. ????

Diana and Angie - yeah .. I take nasonex for allergies .. but we have more pollen than I have seen in a while .. so I may have to go see an allergist .. ?? .. just don't have the time!! LOL .. and I know exactly what you mean about not feeling like you can "bring it" anymore .. I am really having to dig deep to get this week done (and work is not helping) ... I am looking forward to next week .. going to LOVE the recovery of no weights .. and I think I am going to keep my classes all light cardio and yoga next week .. to fully soak in recovery week. Then I will take a break .. and get refreshed and somehow I know I will be adding back in the X .. don't see me staying away from it completely!!

This weekend is DH birthday .. and planning something for him is next to impossible .. he is not cooperating .. he wants to stay here .. but he wants to go to the beach house .. then he wants to have a party .. but needs to get work done .. the we have a charity party Sat. night he may want to go to .. but again he wants to go to the beach .. aahhhhhhhh x(

Ok . I have rambled long enough .. sorry .. I will check in later w/all of you!!
 
Good morning ladies

I decided to take the day off today because the house needs and is actually screaming for some attention:eek: I have let things go the last couple of weeks because things have been so dang hectic at work. Now that I'm finally getting on top of things at work, I have LOTS of housework to do. Getting all that winter stuff cleaned up and put away and getting all the easter and spring stuff out sure is a lot of work! Thunderstorms moved through early this morning and got me in the spring cleaning mood - great timing. I love a good thunderstorm and wish I couldv'e watched it, but at 4am, I wasn't overly interested in it.

Marcia - Something must be in the air - I just got done organizing my routine as well. I'm not following the faux X routine to a T because I don't have all the workouts listed and don't like kickboxing. I probably should put YogaX in there somewhere, but......it's so nice not doing that one.:7 I also want to add in the fun factor so I'm putting in Step Blast, Rhythmic Step, and Cardio and Weights. I just love those workouts!
So glad to hear you had great workouts yesterday. Great job on your circuit class - that must be so much fun. How big is your class?

Wendy - Didn't you just have the yucks? Maybe you have allergies? Lots of people say they always get a spring cold and many times, it is really alergies, not that they are any more fun to deal with - right Laura??;-)

OK - breaks over:( Time to tackle the countertop and clear off all the junk mail and odds and ends that always ends up there.

Later gaters

Well, I was on the couch when Spin class started....LOL Maybe I'll be in the mood for something at nap time. I'll see....

Wendy .... REST .. that is an order!!! JEEZE .. am I going to have to find my way up there and kick your butt .. LOL!!!!:)
 
Hey Everyone -

Well, it's my second day home. I feel sick as a dog. My 16 yo DD is also sick and I'm taking her to doctor at 1.

Talk about slimy in the head, Wendy. I'm right there with ya!! No exercising for me....for two days now.

Nancy

I hate, hate, hate feeling sickx( x( x( x(
 
Oh man, I feel so bad for you guys:( Being sick sucks! It's weird how we don't really appreciate our health until we get sick. But, on the brighter side, I would be willing to bet you all will get over this faster than the average bear. You are fit and healthy and the super bug that has got a hold of you will be sorry!}( That bug shouldv'e picked on someone else.:7

Kick your feet up, wrap up in a cozy blankee, and sip on hot tea and water. Some nice warm soups wouldn't hurt anything either. And don't forget those naps! Take it easy girls and you will get better soon.:)

Hugs

Angie
 
Hi Ladies,

I'm finally getting around to checking in. Not sure why since I didn't workout this morning. Now it's lunch time and I'm slammed at work so I won't be able to work out. Today is obviously turning into my rest day so I'm just goin' with it.

Wendy-it sure sounds like you need a rest day or 2 or 3 so your body fight off this illness you have. Take it easy girl:)

Angie-My house needs cleaned too, feel free to come by when your done with your house. I've actually been on an organizing frenzy the past 6 months or so. DH and I are trying to eliminate all the junk from our house. We are also working on a budget, paying off our bills etc. This budgeting is hard work. I'm following a 12 week program (don't laugh, I'm serious). We want everything-including our house paid off in 8yrs. We still owe for 16 yrs on our mortgage, but following this money for life program we hope to have it paid off in 8 yrs.

Poochy-my middle suffers from allergies also. I always give him a hard time cuz he tends to get out of a lot of yard work. Hope you end up doing something fun for DH's birthday.

Nancy-hope you and DD get better soon. Try some chicken soup and don't forget orange juice.

Take Care everyone,

Diana
 
Hey.........

DD has strep throat. I spoke to pediatrician about what I might have and he said it sounds like a sinus infection. I was hoping he would just write a script for me.....but, no. I have an appointment in the AM.

I feel like a slug..................x( x( . Can barely move let alone exercise. And with everyone around me not feeling well, I still have to cater to them, ugh!!!! I'm tired!

Sorry for the rant..... I believe this check-in is for positive vibes. I promise to bring some as soon as I'm feeling better.:)

Nancy
 
Thanks Diana!

I was feeling a little better (after some Motrin - a wonder drug in my opinion) and cranked out GS C&T. I'm feeling much better now and not so much a slacker. I think exercise in itself is somewhat of a wonder drug. I didn't overdo it and I feel good.

Have a great night!!!!

BTW, who's going on the roadtrip? I doubt I will. It would probably cost me more in "cute" workout clothes (wouldn't want anyone to see what I workout in now) than the cost of the whole trip. I'm only about an hour and a half away (by car) but........shy, I guess. I don't know if I would "fit in".

Nancy
 
Hi gang:

Laura - I get my music from Power Music, too. It's been the best for me so far. PLEASE, post your circuit workout I'd absolutely love to see it especially now that my class wants that at least once a week, I'll need some different options. }(

Just finished Shoulders and Arms. I'm going to get some planks in, but no ARX. I did abs last night at class and so I'll just do some good ol' planks tonight.

Have a good one!
Marcia.
 
Hey girls.

Well, you all may not believe me but I took a rest day today! I did alot of cleaning to keep myself busy instead. LOL I know I probably should have been on the couch and I *DID* rest some but unless I have a fever I still get ants in my pants so I need to move around! LOL I also took 2 trips to the store with DS trying to buy him proper fitting jeans. He's a big boy...he's about to turn 2 and I just bought him 3T jeans! *GASP!* LOL It's wierd though cause he's just growing out 24 months yet the 2T's are tight on him! What kind of sense does THAT make!? I'm sure there are brands of 2T's that would fit him but ofcourse the brands I had available to me were NOT those!:p

I am going on the RT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:+ :7 :+ :7 Anyone else?

Nancy, if you are so dang close you should go!!!!! You could probably pick me up on the way down and we could go together!}(
