Quick check in for me.

BBL later for personals.

Happy Friday to me! So excited to be off and spend time with my B the next 2 days.

I did AB and Core 2 this morning.

Today was crazy...LOVE it :) 2 injections given. Out of control patients trying to hit and kick staff. 2 little old ladies....maybe 100 lbs. They can get feisty!
 
Good evening!
Both DS's flights got off fine, THANK heavens! Talk about a very long day! He's got many flying hours ahead of him. Three of the 4 preceding flights this am to JFK had been cancelled so I was holding my breath the whole time until he boarded. His flight was only delayed taking off about 45 mins. Then, his international flight this evening left on time. Considering what snippets I've heard about the snow in NY, it is miraculous! Thank you, airport crews! I'm so grateful.

Marie, congrats on UY! So awesome! Can't wait to hear your verdict on each of the 108 days!:D Extra snuggles with B for me on your days off with him. Omg, the johnny jumpup is so fun!

Missy, fingers crossed for you for YOUR new car tomorrow!
I am terrified of horror, paranormal, slashing movies!
Your barn chores are intimidating!:eek:

Carolyn, I did a little Shovel Max today. Nothing like you. It was such a nice day! Brilliant sunshine and windless, so it was kind of mild.
Can you believe school is cancelled for Monday?? Just lovely. But the roads are so narrow and the sidewalks piled up high!
 
Betty, so glad your son got off ok. What an exciting time for him!

Yesterday I shoveled off the back deck - not a good idea after doing bis and tris. I thought my arms would fall off! Then today I thought I would try one of the UY workouts since there has been so much discussion about them. I could not do it! I forgot what an upper body workout it was, with so many down dogs into planks. I had to stop and do Cathe's leg workout. I think I would have to alternate the UY workouts with cardio workouts only.

And school was cancelled for tomorrow! I could not believe it. My kids are actually getting bored. And school vacation is coming up too.

Am I remembering right that some of you watch the Walking Dead? I saw AMC was having a marathon of the show so watched to see what it was about. It was a bit gruesome - I had to turn my head away.
 
Hi all,
Mary, I didn't feel any doms while shoveling today!:eek: Not working out or shoveling hard enough.:eek:
I don't watch WD. I think maybe ColleenK, Carolyn, Jean??

I was perusing VF and found this UY dvd time breakdown:
Ultimate Yogi ? on workout lengths - Video Fitness Forum
The most interesting part was one poster who said she paid $51:eek:!

Carolyn, Jean, ColleenD, hope you're all doing well.

Good night!
 
Good morning! Monday is here once again! Up amd getting my morning cardio in!

I am leaving work early today..... I am picking Tim up at 3...to go to tje vw delearship!!! Fingers and yoes crossed! I am pre approved with usaa....so we have to go over and come to an agreement on price. Thwn I come home and do all paperwork online...fax to delearshoip and then they fax to usaa....then usaa will send the funds to vw within 24 hrs.....these next few days will be interesting.

Okay...warmed up....gotta pick up the pace! Check back later!

Btw....hope everyone is warm!
 
Morning girls.

Sorry I was MIA over the weekend. The days just zoom by. I did get online to read up a but never got a chance to check in. I try to not be seen online too much over the weekend. DH gets annoyed and trying to set a precedence with the kids hat we don't always have to be attached to electronics.

Saturday I was really tired so I took a rest day. Yesterday was cycle max. I did 15 miles.

Carolyn, my knee has been really great lately. My orthotics just came in so I have to go pick them up. The last two weeks I've done spinning 3 data per week with ballet body 3 days per week. Last week my knee was bothering me a little after spinning 3 days. My knee felt great after cycle max yesterday and I really pushed myself. I am still scared to do a Cathe through.

I still haven't received UY yet. I'm hoping it will come today. I really would like to do a yoga session tomorrow. I have been researching the heck out of rebounders. I'm very tempted to get one. I think it would be a great addition to my fitness regimen. Then that's it. I need to go on hiatus in buying fitness stuff.

Betty, do you get your spin bike? Not sure if I read that or not.

Missy, good luck today. Sounds like a perfect it for you. I'm sure you will look adorable driving it!!

Marie, yeah!! So glad you got UY. I'm also glad to hear you will be resting some. The early mornings can get very tedious. 5am is hard for me I can't imagine getting up at 4. Very proud I'd you.

Jean, I am so impressed with you doing all if your purging and cleaning up in preparation of your move.

Hi Mary.

Glad your NE girls were ok in in the storm. How much snow do you end up getting? I have An Employer in CT who got 32 inches!!!

Have a great Monday.

BBL.
 
Good afternoon....I am off for the day! Omg...getting close to time I go pick Tim up....i am picking him up at work and then go straight to vw delearship.....

Excited....but nervous!
 
Hey all,
It's a light rain today with mild temps possibly in low 40s. I'll take it. We got 2' of snow, Colleen. Like Carolyn described, the snowbanks are so high only people on suvs can see past them. There's just so much snow!

My knees are feeling shredded today from Tabatacise 1-4 (with BS Back and Ab Circ Stab Ball). Yikes, this workout is probably the worst one on the knees. I didn't feel that way after the others (that I can recall).

Colleen, I hear you about showing the kids other activities besides electronics. All of us here love to go on our computer for quiet time.:confused: My kids, alas, have no other interests but electronics, so hold your kids off as long as possible. Boys seem to be especially attached, as I've seen with many other male relatives and acquaintances.

I haven't gotten my bike yet. Doesn't look like it today either.

I have ordered from DD in the past and did not have a problem. Fingers crossed that Colleen and Marie get it soon!

Carolyn, hope you enjoy the rest of the time with your sis. It's tough to see her go. As someone else asked, do you ever go visit her? Haven't heard you say that since we've 'met'.

Have a nice day.
 
No UY today. :-(. I was really hoping it would be here today. Maybe tomorrow.

Carolyn, I'm with you on xTrain. I wish I didn't get the downloads or it would be up ok eBay. -:(.

Glad you had a nice visit with you sister.

BBL. need to figure out what's for dinner.
 
I made a 17-bean soup for tonight. I hate to think about dinner too; no ideas ever pop out spontaneously.

Carolyn, this lady sounds like you in a way: http://cathe.com/forum/f95/back-pain-292311/
Maybe someday you and Colleen may be able to do the jumpy Cathes. It's still a great deal for XT. Think of it this way: you probably have 9 or 10 workouts for the price of half, or something like that. That's a bargain!
Does DD have growing pains? Once in a while, I've heard of kids having leg pain and I wonder if it's literally that.
Don't you long to travel, somewhere, anywhere? DS's trip is making me nostalgic for Italy.

Jean, what's up?

The rain has flattened down some of the snow. Very foggy too!

Am I nuts????? Yes...I am! But who cares? I don't!!!!

:)

Off to take a bath....just prepared our lunchs for tomorrow! :)

Thanks Carolyn!!! Its been 9 yrs.... I am just thrilled that Tim is just as excited! Normally Tim talks us out of the buying process...he is cheap! Lol....

Jean...i hope everything is okay! I am thinking of you!

Okay...almost time to go to work!! Lots to do today!
 
Good morning.

Congrats Missy!! I can't wait to see pictures!!

Have fun today Carolyn. Did you workout before the field trip?

Rest day today. I was not feeling good last night an this morning I was really lethargic. I know I should I worked out to give me more energy, but I felt I needed the sleep.

I pick up my orthotics after work today.

Betty, did DS have safe travels?

Hi Jean, Marie and Mary.
 
Jean, it's great to hear from you. I'm sorry you're in a funk. Pull out some workout that fits your mood right now, anything. You'll feel better after. Continue every other day; that way, you don't have a daily pressure.
DS made it safely to his destination. It's so exciting to me, but he came up with this. Study abroad option is available in most colleges (usually junior year though), I daresay. I would have been too chicken to go at his age, had the thought even crossed my mind, which it didn't. DH is totally against the concept, but he didn't encourage nor forbid DS.

More UY, this time on importcds.com for $73.43: Travis Eliot: The Ultimate Yogi [12 Discs]: DVD Movie Details: ImportCds.com 687797930552 Someone posted this website on VF. There is shipping for $4.99. I've not heard of this place before, but wow, great price!

Missy, I'm guessing your Jetta is sort of your valentine's gift to yourself!:D

Colleen, thanks for asking about DS. This week will be spent doing paperwork and getting established. We're not able to communicate as often as I'd like, between the 6-hr time difference (ahead), Internet not being as readily available as here, and him being a boy (less communicative).
I prescribe two rest days for you. It's very regenerative.
 
Colleen---Sometimes you just need to rest....but I know what you mean...on the next day...no energy....thats why I only take off days when I dont feel well. Because it is always hard getting moving again! Good luck with the orthotics.

Betty---My car is more of a "you did it" The weight is gone....present. But Valentines is good too! Tim did say getting me a new car benefits him too...because the hot sexy women getting out of a new sexy car...is his!!! He is to sweet! He told me last night, that he is very proud of me...and I make him smile everytime he sees me. I truely have the best husband. I couldnt be happier! Tim goes to orlando for a few days for a Steel training...he is leaving Sunday later aftenoon and will not be home till Tuesday night.... I sure am going to miss him. We never are apart. :eek:

Jean---Pull out some DVDs and get moving...you will be fine. We are here for you. Buy some fruits and veggies and it will motivate you to get back moving! I didnt get to watch TBL last night...so I will watch it tonight. :) As for the speeding...definately keeping in in the speed limits...but I will say the car is a rocket...you barely touch the peddle and you are flying! :eek:

Waiting on noon...hungry! I brought a grilled chicken salad today....yum yum!
