I can't run without music either. I need the motivation. Music keeps me going.
The picnic was fun but cold. The sun was out but a little breezy.
I'm in IT. I am an IT direction responsible for development and operations for actuarial applications. It ok. You can just call me a geek.
Apple TV lets you feed what's on your computer (or iPad, iPhone and I think iPod touch as well) to a TV. So I can stream music and videos on my TV without having to drag my computer into my workout room. I love it!!!

Hey everyone,
Had a busy day going into Boston, then meeting a friend for lunch, home, and then straight to my son's xc meet across town.
Very shortly the International Space Station flyby will happen. So cool!
It was finally sunny today, but so windy, I think my head is all funky from being windblown. Or maybe I'm dehydrated.
I'm feeling glute and hamstring doms from yesterday's TBT LB; must be the dixie cups!
iTunes is really neat. Have fun with that, Missy.
Carolyn, hope you were able to go for a walk. It is gorgeous out with the brilliant foliage colors! We'll be getting our first frost in the wee hours of Saturday morning.
ColleenD, at least you get a company picnic. A lot of companies don't even bother. It's a nice way to hang out with coworkers and not chat about work.
Jean, hope all is well at your sis'. This is very similar to how I like butternut squash: Roasted Butternut Squash Recipe : Robin Miller : Recipes : Food Network But I think you have to cook it way longer than this indicates. Read the reviews. I love salt, brown sugar, and butter with it!

I'm here! Sorry had a busy day. I was thinking about you guys and hoping you wouldn't think I was in labor. I'll make sure to keep you posted when I am. I went to a diaper study this morning with a girlfriend. It was a group of 8 women in their 3rd tri. A moderator led the discussion and another women recorded all our responses. Then there was a group of researchers and scientists in a back room listening to us. We discussed different options and features of future diapers. Some were pretty bizarre. It was real interesting though. Even better is that we got paid 150 dollars for 2 hours of our time
Tony and I hung out after that and ran some errands. It was nice to have the day with him.
Baby update....Hopefully this not not tmi. I'm a nurse so I'm all about tmi but I don't know where to draw the line with some people. Anyways I'm pretty sure I lost part of my mucus plug last night. There was a little brown thing floating In the toilet after I peed. I have had nothing else since but I figure it's some progress nonetheless.
Missy- Hope you got your iPod. Tony uses iTunes to update our iPods and says it's easy. Enjoy your 3 day weekend
Carolyn and Colleen- Nice jobs on the workouts
Betty- Thanks for posting that recipe. You all have me craving butternut squash now

Carolyn, sorry to hear about your daughter. Maybe just because its Friday? My daughter was hysterical today because a pair of jeans were too tight. Ugh. I chalked it up to her being tired. She's usually exhausted by the time Friday hits.
I'm sure once she's in the groove if the day she will be ok. Enjoy your day with your mom
Missy, I can't wait for athleta today!!!
Any news Marie???

Good morning! I pulled out S&G today. Honestly, I never remember what most of the newer workouts entail! I was gasping with all those planks, dragging, pushups on the discs, etc. Was thinking about HC while I was doing them though! Cathe's Sandra moves. Boy, have I got a long way to go!
OK, my eating isn't perfectly clean, but whenever I work out I see the handles around each of my sides They never shrink! I don't eat like the avg American, and though I like sweets, I know when to stop (mostly, ). Ugh! Aggravating. I'd have to go hungry to shrink them, I think! And/or be super strict about white foods.
Carolyn, do you think the girl asking her to be quiet freaked Dylan out? There is something that's making her anxious.
Enjoy time with your mom.
How many classes of your daughter's grade? Our elem school is way too big. 3-4 classes of each grade. Over 400 kids in all.
ColleenD, enjoy Athleta! You deserve it! Shopping is fun!
Missy, enjoy your days off, and especially tomorrow! Good luck on your 5K!
Hi Marie and Jean! Marie, so thrilled you got to do the diaper survey! That's a lot of money. I'd have gladly participated! Sounds like you gave feedback for future editions of diapers! Cool. And it sounds like you're making progress! Fingers crossed. Nah, it's never tmi!
I have been looking at FB and the new workout blog many times a day! I'm obsessed! I always do this though!
How do those women look so fresh, even late at night?? I'd have bags under my eyes.
Carolyn, did you find the YouTube teasers? They're spontaneous <1-min things shot right after filming each workout. Three so far.
Ugh, just clouded over again! Chilly too.

Well no news here. Slept in today. Tony has the day off so our plan is to go for a long walk. B has been moving a ton lately. I feel like he's trying to move down or something but can't. I keep thinking my pelvis opening is too small which will lead to a CS like my sis had. So many thoughts running through my head. As long as he is healthy that's all I care about. Just anxious to meet my little man Carolyn- Sorry about your dtr. That must have been so hard...poor thing. Glad to hear she is feeling better now. I as well always call it crosstrain and my mom will not stop calling her Cath lol....even several reminders later. Betty- I'm obsessed with watching the teasers and checking out all the pics on FB. I wish they would post them on the forums for everyone who doesn't use FB. Missy- Nice job on the workout. And so excited you got your ipod...just in time for your 5k Colleen- Have fun shopping....nothing better than buying new workout gear. Keep us posted on what you bought.

So I went shopping today and bought WAY too much. I did check out athleta but I was actually overwhelmed and their stuff is so pricey. So I didn't get anything from there.
I did get a new purse, pair of jeans, makeup and face products. Also got a couple sweaters, 2 camisoles to wear under shirts. I think that's it. Oh a pair if shoes as well.
Carolyn, glad to hear your daughter is ok. Hope you had fun with your mom. I with you on not feeling the workouts lately. That why I've been going lower impact lately. I feel I still get a good workout, but without killing myself. I think that's why I Ike the HC so much. They are hard but I don't have to think about how much I need to lift and it keeps my mind occupied because I have to considerate so hard in what I'm doing. Does that make sense??
Missy, sounds line you had a good day off.
Marie, I wouldn't worry. I'm sure your little man will be here before you know it. Both my kids were born on a Saturday.
Hi Betty!! Good job on S&G.
Jean, hope you are enjoying your time with your mom and sister.
Off to relax for a little. My feet are tired.

Hi all,
I've been out of town with my Dad getting him evaluated at the cancer center at Johns Hopkins. We got very good news there, after all but giving up hope, so we are ecstatic and celebrating! The docs actually feel they can CURE his cancer, after first only thinking they could slow the growth to buy him a little more time.
I finished up Week 3 with Disc 9 (Legs) today. I think this was my favorite of the leg workouts in Meso 1. I love the sliding discs! I'd used them in LIS Slide and Glide and in the Ab Circuits, but I really liked using them with the weights and at the end with the leg blast. I'm just loving STS and plan to use this system for a long time to come!

Thanks so much! You are all the greatest! Appreciate all the positive thoughts. Missy- I'll be induced on the 22nd. I think they would do it sooner if I wanted but I really want him to come on his own. On the 22nd I'll be 41w5d so that's the latest my dr would let be go. We shall see.......
