~*~*SEPT 09 CHECK-IN for Thurs, 9/10~*~*

Hey Hey!

I have a list of "to do" today, to get ready for our birthday bash on Saturday. *sigh* Busy, busy, busy!! Hope the weather holds out for us. I'm a bit worried it's going to rain on our Joust!

Once again, I thought about my workout during the night. I'm obsessed! (or possessed?!?!) I'm not sure about Lalo, since I have some big DOMS in my legs and abs. I don't feel like I want to do leg drills or core work. I kind of forget what Lalo does, but I think it's everything? I'm thinking more along the lines of a run, since I really doubt I'll get out Saturday. AND the sun is shining today, I'd like to get as much running in as I can.

I was also thinking of something upper body today with weights. Beth, do you think that's ok to do upper body weights today and P57 tomorrow?

Joanne: OMG, Jameson sounds so sick! All those medications. And on "isolation". they must suspect he has H1N1 then. At work, if anyone comes in with high fevers and pneumonia, they automatically ASSUME H1N1 and put them on isolation. Do people wear masks when they come in the room? .... I hope he's better soon, the poor kid. It's crazy how he got so sick so fast. :( I'm glad you guys took off from work.

Hottie: I know there is LITTLE chance of me doing a workout if i wait past 3pm. I just don't have it in me! Hope you get LIC in today!!! It's waiting for you!!!
 
Hey Chris! And all those that follow...

Yeah, I just have been dead on energy but maaaan, I slept for so long last night. I assumed when I woke up that it must have been like 2 in the morning but it turned out to be more like 430. Joe and I chilled and I'm just going to have a relaxing morning, doing this and that and an awesome workout before going into work. My boss and crazy lady are in Italy for the week so I'm planning on taking a near half day but honestly, it looks like I'm just going in late. we'll see....
 
Good morning! Well, I am so mad at myself for going crazy with that meso 3 and injuring. Thought I was better..... I felt great the last couple of days, and even working out yesterday, but last night it really hit me -- actually when I went to bed it was as bad as it's felt since I hurt it. So, I guess I really have to lay off it (thought I did!), but I really want to start meso 1 with you Sunday. I may just go really light. Anyway, this morning I thought I might do cardio (since there was no threesome with Lalo), but I woke up around 4:00, went back to sleep, and when the alarm went off at 4:45 I was in a decent dream.... hit the snooze alarm, except it was the off button, and I woke up again around 6:00. A real rest day for me -- probably just as well! I may walk later.

Chris, I think it's probably ok for you to try p57 tomorrow even if you do arms today -- just go really light on the weights and if you have bad doms, skip that part and do the legs. To me it just works you in a really different way, so that's why I think it's ok, but I could be wrong! I only play a trainer on the internet......:p

Hottie, sounds like you needed rest, too!

Joanne, how long do you think Jameson has to stay in the hospital? Are you both going bored there? I'll bet! I hope he's feeling better -- what an ordeal for you! How are the other kids doing with one parent always gone? Hope it's back to normal soon!!! Think Caitlyn's birthday bash will go on as expected? I hope it can.

Chris, good luck with your birthday prep -- I sure hope the weather is ok for you! My niece is having her belated birthday party this weekend, too. Big weekend!!

Ok, off to catch up on things I should be doing......
 
oh LIC rocked. my HR was up there, it felt GREAT to be lifting weights, and frankly, I feel like I could have worked out for another hour. stupid work getting in the way on my path to not be an amorphous blob! It also unfortunatley reminded me that I still can't do cathe core work but maybe its good to have that reminder. I'm thinking about calling to see if there's a spot open at the school chiropractor since my lower back has been bothering me and oh my the cracks and sounds that popped out today...

Beth -- we will never really wake up at the same time will we??!?! Tell your shoulder to get better! And btw, that was really funny about the AAA membership length!

I'll be on and off...oh, btw, that student from yesterday? So I emailed him to have a copy where I say, hey you owe me this much next week and our next session is at THIS time and THIS place and he was totally taken aback with me writing that. BS!! I know the people who grade you -- don't try to not pay me...and if I could just describe how rich and spoiled these children are...::sigh::
 
Good Afternoon...

I'm pooped and have NO movitation!

I did end up doing the Upper Body Premix from MM. Good one! FELT it! BURNED! I took a little break and then headed to the park for a 35 minute run. It was nice, but not as endorphine-ated as usual! LOL!... Maybe because my next stop was Walmart. Picked up a bunch of crap for the party... and more! ... And then the grocery store. Ordered the cake. Jake really wanted a Driving Wheel/Nascar cake this year, so I got it. They don't get excited about stuff like that for long, so what the heck. The only thing is, I think it might be too small, so I'm going to make a dozen cupcakes to "supplement". ;) .... Did MORE shopping, I'm shopped out. Back home for laundry. yay!!

Hottie
: I'm jealous of your sleep. I was so pissed last night, It was my night to sleep through, finally! (Greg's night off, so he does Zach's sugars). Well, he climbs into bed after his 1am check, and I was tossing and turning already. He starts SNORING. I was like WHA???? I got up , went pee, and then TRIED ear plugs, but it didn't work. I just about JUMPED in the bed (we have a waterbed) which prompted a "WHA???" from him. I complained about his snoring (with ear plugs in, so I bet i was LOUD about it), and he felw out of the room down stairs to the couch! LOL!!... I'm so used to sleeping by myself. I had some CRAZY ass dreams too. Man oh man. In one I dreamt I met an old boyfriend that I wasn't ever quite "over". (he dumped me). I kissed him to see if he still did it for me, and it was ICKY! Funny how the kiss in my dream was SO vivid. I also had a nightmare about having to work, and not being able to get there, kind of like trying to run and you can't. Maybe that's why I'm so tired!..... (oh geesh, I rambled!) .. It's nice you get a half day! Glad you FINALLY got LIC in!! WOOT WOOT!!! ...That student sounds like a total ass ! Geesh!

Beth
: Hey, I don't blame ya for not doing Lalo today either! Dreaming is much more fun (or is it???). Oh crap on your shoulder! You're really going to do STS? It sounds like maybe you shouldn't do any weights for a WHILE, if hit keeps re-hurting. (as much as I REALLY want you to do STS !!!! badly!!!). What workout did you do yesterday again?

Yeah, guess it's a big birthday weekend coming up! Joanne, will you still have the party? Caitlyn must be worried?!!? Wondering how Jameson is doing today..... Let us know when you can!
 
Jameson is home!! He's still nowhere near himself, but the doctor said it will be a long recovery. She said it was a pretty bad case, so we really shouldn't expect him to be back to normal for a couple weeks. He may be able to go to school Monday, but no soccer till his lungs are clear. We have a doctor's appt. scheduled for Saturday.

Chris, yes, anyone who came in the room had to wear a mask and a gown. Until early today when his blood cultures came back normal, then they lifted the restrictions. I don't know if they suspected H1N1 or if it was because of the pneumonia. He was on three antibiotics there and they sent him home on two. Glad you were able to get in your run. Sometimes those endos just aren't there! Getting ready for parties is exhausting!! Especially when they involve Walmart shopping! Your story about Greg snoring and your dream are hilarious! I can so relate. Well, not any dreams about old boyfriends lately ;), but the snoring and being used to sleeping alone, oh yea. I get horrible sleep on weekends cause DH is there with the TV on till 2:00 am and then snoring.

Hottie, LIC is always a feel-good workout for me. Glad you were able to get it in. What a spoiled little punk! How old is this kid?

Beth, I think you and your shoulder needed a rest day. The kids were actually OK with one parent. They're used to it since we work different shifts.

Caitlyn's birthday party is at a place with the balls and tubes, so thankfully it will still go on. She would be heartbroken. DH probably will stay home with Jameson.

Poor Lalo! No one did him today! ;)

Hoping for no more drama in my family, I'd like my life to be a bit more boring!

Off to watch Big Brother....

Joanne
