STS first time!

[Bettypcw]

Yikes, it just started raining snow showers! The lawn is getting white already. So windy too. And the air is sooo cold! I keep thinking about DS. Not that he's not dressed warmly, but, and we were told to expect this weather, supply waterproof boots. Which he doesn't have. His pants certainly aren't water-resistant either!

Carolyn, DH must be so weak from no food. He must be losing weight too. Friday! That's so far away and more than a week since the ER, isn't it?
You do need to be absorbed by a good book.

Going to curl up with a movie.

It is cold here too. Not liking it at all. But if it was snowing I would cry...too cold for me!!! Have fun with it though!

Carolyn---4.9 pounds more to go! It will prbably take me months...it is so hard to lose an ounce now! The last 5 are a killer as everyone says!!!

It is just a personal goal....if it happens it does...not going to kill myself!!! But it would be nice!!!

Stay warm friends!!!

Ridiculous! It's still snowing! And blowing!

Carolyn, DS is in Freedom. (My friend's 7th grader DD went to a Nature's Classroom in upstate NY last month.)

Sleep warm & cozy, all!

Good morning...its cold this morning. On the treadmill. Chat later!

Good Morning!

The snow was a bust! We were supposed to get anywhere from 3-5 inches and didn't get anything but a dusting. I am very happy, although it is still very cold. It looks like this weekend is going to bring warmer weather.

I did leaner legs this morning. Wow! A short workout that packs a punch.

Betty, I hope your son is staying nice and warm in this weather. Thanks Betty on the Kudos. Someday are easier than others, someday I feel like I’m aimless running around. Working out is my escape and stress reliever (not that I really think my life is stressful, it’s my life and I wouldn’t change it). It’s my hour a day to just me and I even though I get up at 5AM, it’s so peaceful. I’m about an hour away from Cathe’s gym in NJ. I would love to go to the roadshow. We used to live in NJ as well (almost 7 years ago), I didn’t know about Cathe then, but I would have been about 5 minutes away from her gym. Last year we were on the way to the shore the weekend of her last road trip. I told DH as we were passing the signs for Glassboro; he said why aren’t you going? So maybe next year!

Carolyn, hope you’re feeling better today. How is your DH? I hope the doc can do something for him tomorrow.

Hi Jean and Missy. Hope you are well Marie. Hi Becky.

Have a great day!! BBL

Hello again.....my husband pre ordered the 2013 Calendar for me!!!! YEAH!!!

Hope everyone is staying warm....I am getting nervous about running Saturday morning, they say it is going to be in the 40's...OMG, that is freezing to me!

Hope everyone has a lovely day.

Planning on doing Tri Sets tonight!

 

[VeggieGal]

Checking in with Disc 16, Ch, Sh, and Tri. I really love meso 2 -- I can see using this one a LOT!

I'm going to miss a week though, in the middle of this meso as the doctors are going to retry my dad's surgery on Monday, so I'll be at Johns Hopkins for a week or two. Can't think of a better reason to be off-rotation though!

 

[cdimatt]

Jean, leaner leg is from cathe xTrain express. I never thought about going just for one class. I should look into going.

 

[missyt]

Good Afternoon!

Carolyn---you can wine to us! We all have complained from time to time. We are here for you! I am glad to hear you are able to put some weight on it. I think that is good progress!

Jean---Your room is going to be awesome! Very excited for you! Oh...and yes it was alot of exercise, but it felt so good!

Becky---I will keep your family in my thoughts! Good luck!

Working hard today...I decided to take tomorrow off! hehehehe

Be back!

 

[missyt]

Colleen---If I lived that close I definately would. It would be amazing! I want to go to a road trip too. But I hope she comes south next year!!!

 

[Bettypcw]

Hi everyone,

Can't seem to get warm. The wind keeps howling and there is a yucky slushy mess outdoors. Two to three inches or so. So dark and dreary too.

Carolyn, do share your thoughts with us. I never consider it whining or complaining. If you're in sheer pain, I want to know the details.

Becky, I'm so happy to hear about your dad's rescheduled surgery. I'm glad the docs haven't given up. Your dad is fortunate to be able to use JH too! Don't worry about your workouts; your muscles will remember ( same goes for you, Carolyn). Good luck and I'll be thinking of you & dad.

Bbl.

 

[missyt]

Good Evening! Off for 3 days!!! Yeah!!!

Tomorrow...I am going to grocery shop, do chores, and meet Tim for lunch!!!
Saturday....run 5k @ 8am....and then go shopping in the afternoon with a friend. (Christmas shopping)
Sunday....rest and house work!!!!

Lots planned!!!

I am almost finished shopping for Tim, now I have to start shopping for the parents!!! Hope to be done by Thanksgiving!!! Around here, I shop for Tim, and the mothers. Tim shops for Me and the fathers. I shop till thanksgiving, and Tim shops from Thanksgiving on. That way....we swap on checking mail so we dont know what each other is getting. Tim always wants everything to be a secret. So that is our shopping schedule!!! It does make Christmas magical!!! We are like kids at christmas!!!! Looking forward to another wonderful christmas with my loving hubby!!!

Okay...off to workout...trisets! Be back!

 

[missyt]

BTW.... hope everybody is warm!!! The weather man, said it was going to be 34 degrees in the morning with frost!!!

Had to blanket the horses tonight!!!

 

[Bettypcw]

Jean, I haven't seen Secret Window; looks older. I watched Carolina yesterday; not worth watching.
As I've said before, that solarium/workout room is going to be stunning! I'm so envious!

Missy, enjoy your day off! Have a great 5K too. Best of luck!

Carolyn, best of luck at PT tomorrow, and to your DH too! Is your mom helping out? How are you managing with DH being frail and with a business to run? How's your pain now?

Colleen, those older Cathe workouts sound great. She is so consistently awesome, isn't she?

Can't remember what else I just read either--on my little device. Sweet dreams, all.

 

[missyt]

Good Morning and happy friday!

Carolyn---Good luck at therapy today! I hope the pain goes down for you. Keep us posted on on therapy goes.

I am on my second load of laundry this morning. Now off to workout!!Gotta get my workout in before I head to town. Plus it is so cold outside I don't want to leave the house! LOL

 

[Bettypcw]

Hooray, Carolyn! You are now one step closer!
What is up with the false reading? How disconcerting.
In any case, it sounds like your pain is diminishing, and the assessment by the PT fellow is so encouraging. Being healthy and fit goes a long way toward enabling quicker recoveries. I'm sure the minimal swelling is due to that.
DS will be home in an hour or less. I was not a basket case, not even close. To the contrary. I enjoyed the couple time. There was no communication with our children. I loved that the kids were cut off from all their electronic devices! The school relayed auto messages to our email and home phones--once when they arrived; the next day to say all was well and the weather was overcast; and this afternoon to say the bus left, and approx when to expect them back at school. Where did the time go??
Is your Sargent Camp the one run by Boston University? Ours is called Camp Cody. Lake Ossippee is right there.
Oh, as I was typing this post, he was dropped off by a classmate's mom! Been getting the lowdown for the past hour.
What is your DH's verdict after the appt?

Did you guys see the update posted yesterday on XTrain? Another milestone finished!

Colleen, are you ok? It's unlike you not to post first thing.

I pulled out Athletic Step today, which I haven't touched in over a year and a half! Was it Becky who said it was fun? I agree! This workout used to vex me and I would give up in frustration! It's not nearly as difficult to follow as LICh! It is intense too--I was dripping!

Off to cook dinner!

 

[cdimatt]

Hi I am here. It's been a busy day I took off to prepare for my daughters party tomorrow. I did get a spinning workout in ( cycle strong). Went food shopping and have been cooking up a storm. I will catch up on personals later. On the tablet and I'm being lazy. I'm beat. Have a good night.

 

[Bettypcw]

Hey everyone,
Quick post.

Colleen, have a great time at DD's party. Enjoy family and friends, and the fruits of your labor!

Missy, hope you had a great run today! Great job on doing another 5k!

Carolyn, I'll tell you about Camp Cody when I have more time. It was interesting.
Why did DH cancel? Is he being a martyr for you in your condition? No offense. He is in a state of suspended animation, but painfully so.

Jean, kudos on doing light running on your treadmill! Good for you!

It's sunny and a bit mild, so I'll take it.

 

[missyt]

Have a great day today Colleen! What is her theme?

What a gorgeous weekend!

Missy,
I hope you kicked butt today with the 5k!

I wish dh wasnt home so I could go do some arms. He would kill me. I really need to do something! I am going insane!

Hey girls...i kicked butt at the 5k. My time was 30.59....3 minutes quicker thsn last 5k run. My husband went and waited for me at the finish line. It was so wonderful...it made me feel so loved. It really meant alot to me! But he was so proud! I came in 3 rd, but 1st in my age group! Got a metal! Hehehe

Off to help tim. Be back soon!
