STS first time!

Happy Mothers Day Ladies. It sounds like everyone is having a nice day. Today is my rest day. I went to Home Depot and The grocery store. Todays movie was "This is 40". It was pretty good. We have gotten 2 inches of rain this week. Today is sunny and breezy. The builder said the siding was starting to get put up last Friday and this week they will be priming the drywall. We have a trip planned for the 21st to meet the decorator and pick out the bed spread and all of the paint colors. I will be moved within 3 months. That is so exciting.

Marie That is such a cute picture of B and his cousin. She is a pretty girl. If you told me they were twins , I would believe you. I guess it is the Italian. B sure is a happy boy.

Missy I can't believe you just started on the bike and you have already done 13 miles. That's great. You are going to be thin as a rail with all of the cardio you do. You're lucky you can do it.

Betty I am not doing Meditation. It is sitting on the coffee table on top of UY. I did enjoy it very much and will start up again after I move.

Carolyn How much did you pay for Lastics? I put it on my Amazon wish list. They are asking $20. I put everything there and if I find it cheaper somewhere else , I buy it.

Colleen It sounds like you had fun with your daughter getting mani/pedis. You're a good Mom.

Have a great day Ladies.

My husband just got off work. We are grilling out Hot dogs tonight.
 
Good Morning Ladies. It is cool this morning. I am washing 2 windows and 2 sets of blinds this morning. That is about 4 hours work alone. Have a nice day everyone.

Missy I forgot to tell you that I bought a whole chicken at the grocery yesterday. I don't know what day I am cooking it but I am using your recipe . I will let you know how it turns out.

Jean
 
Good morning, everyone! Hope you had fab Mother's Day!

BB UB again for me, and Ab Circ Med Ball (too short!). Making my quinoa/oatmeal... Bbl

Wish we could use more emoticons than the limited few available!

Carolyn, that's great that the pain went away on its own. Glad you are feeling better.

I had a fab Mother's day, we went to my oldest DD's crew race in the morning, then when it cleared we went up to Portsmouth NH. We walked around the shops and had a nice lunch.

I was tired this morning so did LIC. I think I got all the moves this time, but it was certainly a mental challenge. Will try to walk at lunch, it is bright but a little windy I think.

DH said frost tonight????

Have a great day everyone!
 
Happy Monday ladies!!

Today was UB segments from BB. Betty how did you like UB the second time around?

Carolyn, glad you are feeling better.

It is chilly today. I want the warmer weather back. I am hoping to get a walk in at lunch today.

Mary, good job is LIs. Glad you had a Good Mother's Day.

Jean, how was you cookout last night?
 
Carolyn, so awesome your pain went away! Were you ovulating?

Colleen, UB is still so new to me, I was just as lost and behind. And I keep having to remind myself that I don't need cardio!

Mary, DS1 had a classmate who found her passion in rowing when she got to high school. Ended up going to Harvard for crew;):p
Nice job with your workout! That was LIChallenge you did?

Jean, that's a lot of hours of washing! But I know it is time-consuming! Glad you had a rest day. Three months will be here before you know it. Too bad you almost have to wish the summer away before it arrives.

It is windy and chilly here.
 
Good morning.....i battled a headache all day yesterday which then decided to turn into a migrane yesterday around 2.....i made it till 5 at work but then came home and rested....okay....so my period wad this weekend and it is almost done....yeah....but my point is proven....massive exercise helps tremendously.....very few cramps.....:)

This morning.....its cold...45°… what??? Its May....this is crazy! Thank god for heated seats.....lol

Carolyn...how is the ovarian pain?

Jean....good luck with the chicken....hope you enjoy it...cant remember the receipe as i cook them different ways...lol....i like variety!!!

Off to shower and then go to work! Bbl!
 
Good morning.

Yesterday at lunch I walked 3 miles. Then at about 2:00 I started to feel lousy. Sore throat and tired feeling. I went to bed at 9:00. DH wouldn't let me workout this morning. He told me my body needed to rest. So not workout this morning. If I feel up to it ill walk again at lunch. Still have the sore throat and feeling tired.

Missy, hope you are feeling better today.

Carolyn, how do you feel about DS doing o middle school next year? Our school district is building a 6 grade center that all 6th graders will go to before going to middle school. It will be ready in time for DD.
 
Hi girls! It is chi-lly! Have my microfleece robe on (a permanent fixture in all but the hottest summer months) and a blanket over my shoulders!:eek:

My shoulder cage and neck area are so sore from BB UB yesterday! I feel the stiff neck column more than anything.

Carolyn, liking Core 2?? That's great! I haven't pulled 1 & 2 out in so long I don't remember much except that there are a lot of situps!
Sixth grade--DS will be ready. It's an extension of 5th grade, for they ease the kids into middle school. Just think--four of each grade gets him prepared for high school!

Mary, you didn't have AB before?? Congrats on getting it! It will be a nice change of pace for you!

Missy, sorry you had a migraine. Sounds like you're all better. Dh had a monstrous one on Friday. Never seen him in such agony. It was scary.

Colleen, that stinks that you have a sore throat! Take coconut oil to battle the inflammation;). And lots of vitamin C.
A walk at lunch will do you good.

Marie, that is such a precious scene with B and his cousin! So much more since you and Erin live in different states. My local sis and I had our boys 7 months apart.

Oatmeal time!
 
Colleen, we are in the same condition! My nose started running last night, and I woke up this morning before my alarm with a sore throat. I thought about working out and then set my alarm for later! Sounds like we both need a rest.

I have not even been out today, already feel chilly indoors. I'm glad there is no softball scheduled for tonight.

Betty, I do already have AB, I meant 'doing it' was my gift to myself, burning off the calories that came in later in the day.

My girls' middle school is attached to the elementary school thru the cafeteria, so it wasn't a big deal for them. Next year is high school, and that place is huge, it will be a big transition.

Hope everyone is feeling better with their aches and pains.
 
Marie! 90s in MN!:eek:

Mary! Stinks that you're starting a cold too! Here's a link about Vit C. DoctorYourself.com - Colds& Flu This website was developed by the author of the book I'm reading, Doctor Yourself, Andrew Saul, PhD.
Sorry to preach more nutritional therapy.;) Say NO to drugs!;)
Hope you and Colleen improve pronto.

Carolyn, DS won't come back for 2+ more months! He is deep in his semester, but having a blast. What's not to love??:D
Where's that robe in LL Bean? Is it women's?
I read the Lastics thread and the posts are making me want it too!:eek: Do you think UY would stretch you the same way?

We have been a sad thread the past several days!:(

Buona notte!
 
Mary, how are you feeling today? Last night I woke up at midnight with a horrible sore throat. I couldn't even swallow. I took some Advil and got a cough drop. I had a hard time falling back to sleep. I feel a little better this morning but now I'm starting to drain and its not clear! Mad.

Yesterday I did go for a walk. It was nice to get outside and get some fresh air. No workout today. Just trying to listen to my body although I'm really annoyed because I'm on the last week of bb and next week is recover week so its messing up my schedule.

Carolyn, how are you feeling?
 
Good morning...i have been dealing with a sore throat off and on for 2 days....its really starting to make me ill!

I am off today....had lots of stuff to do...so i took off! Out running errands!

Check in later!

Hope everyone feels better and had a nice day!
 
Oh no, Missy, you too? Spring colds always catch us unaware!:eek:

Colleen, green tea with honey for the sore throat. Last night sounded awful for you!:(

Here's another link to an entire book published in 1972 by Irwin Stone about the benefits of Vitamin C. Go to chapter 12 to read up on colds treatment and prevention. The Healing Factor: Vitamin C Against DiseaseC

I pulled out Hard Strikes today. It is a fun workout with matching fun music! I had also planned to add on Core #1 in a premix, but then, at the end of HS, there's a rigorous ab section with the situp/pushup combo:confused:, so I was lazy and skipped Core #1. Did 100 RC Biceps though.

Has anyone been to Quebec City?

Hope you gals with the colds and aches/pains feel better soon.
 
Hello!

Still feeling lousy today but had to come in for some meetings. My nose was running all last night and wouldn't stop, I'm not sure I actually fell asleep for any length of time. Can any of you recommend something for a runny nose? Whatever I am taking isn't working.

So no workout again today but I am ok with that.

Carolyn, I never had a cyst like that, do they just come and go like that? How strange. I hope that is all it was and it doesn't come back.

Betty I have never been to Quebec City but went to Montreal many years ago. My college French didn't help me at all, the accent was way off.
 
Mary, I feel for you. I didn't get much sleepier night either. I am working from home today and just trying to take it easy. I'm no help on the runny nose either.

Betty, like Mary I've only been to Montreal. DH wants to go to Toronto someday.

Carolyn, when I was younger i had cysts. They are not fun.
 
I have just the download.

Too funny with your DD. she sounds just like mine. I'm hoping it just how 8 year old girls are???
 
We had some brief showers which didn't even penetrate under the tree canopies!:confused: Only and just enough to wet DS during track practice!

I really do love XT! Cathe did say that XT is in the same vein as CTX, which I don't have. I would say my least used DVDs in that series are the straight lifting ones, but not BS. I love Burn Sets and do them often enough! Oh, and Ride. That one is dusty too!:p

Carolyn, I was confronted with those same decisions on shots last July. I was taken aback when the pedi said HPV for boys. She explained and I said go ahead. Only after did I think, I should have waited a few years on DS2!:eek: He was 13 at the time. We have never not taken the recommended shots. The chicken pox vaccine was pretty new when DS1 got it; I was nervous, but more so of him catching chicken pox from not being innoculated!
4" is amazing! DS2 has never grown that much in a year that I recall.
I haven't heard you have bkfast with dh in a long time!
I guess I'll have Lastics on my wish list now!:D

Mary, I'm not sure about runny noses either. But I'll look at my books.

DS2 had intro to high school sports tonight.

Yes, girls, go to bed early and get lots of rest.
