STS first time!

Good morning ladies.

One more rest day for me today. I will take a walk at lunch though. Feeling better but not 100% yet. Just trying to let me body recover so it doesn't turn into anything more. I slept really good last night and I slept from 9:30 to 6:15.

Carolyn, 4 inches is amazing in one year. Glad he is healthy and doing well.

I need to get a new blow drier. Mine died today so I had to use the kids....
 
I hope everyone is on the upswing as well!

Came back from errands with a stiff neck, which could lead to a headache!:confused: Hungry too, so I'm eating now. Could be from the heat too. Same temps as Carolyn is describing but even though it is still only in the 60s, the car heats up so fast, as do the roads! So happy to return to my nicely shaded and cool house.

Carolyn, we did watch it already. So lame! No wonder it has been cancelled! (DS read that online.)

It is gorgeous and breezy out.
 
Feeling much better today, I went to bed at 8:45 and slept until 6. I did not work out again today but will probably get back to it tomorrow. Colleen I'm glad you are feeling better too!

So it is such a gorgeous day outside today, my work team decided to go out for ice cream at lunch. I ordered a kiddie size and no kidding, it is about a pint of ice cream. I couldn't even finish it and I love ice cream. So that is more incentive for me to get back to my workouts!

My hamstring is better too, probably because I have not been working out. Honestly, I know that sometimes we need to give our bodies a rest, but if I had to do that all the time I would go nuts.

Betty, hope you do not get a headache!

Carolyn, that's a healthy lunch, have fun at school!
 
I did get the headache:confused:. I tried eating, neck stretches, yoga forward bend to hang my head, deep breaths, lots of water, sun salutations, nothing worked. I then drank a container of coconut water and my headache retreated! First time! Often, I feel like these headaches are from dehydration, but gulping tons of water when you're feeling a trifle nauseous is impossible!

Mary and Colleen, glad you guys got a lot of sleep and another rest day.
Mary, that ice cream sounds amazing! Don't feel guilty. You work out all the time! You are so fit and healthy!

Carolyn, sorry to burst your bubble! But didn't you feel while watching that the episodes were so half-baked and lame-o?? Now, why, oh why, did they have to kill off Lucy when the show is cancelled?!:mad::mad::mad:
Kiefer is going to return in 24 for summer of 2014. Did you recognize the lady therapist from Touch whose dad was going to the execution chair? She was in 24 in the last season or so. I stopped watching then because I was sick to death of terrorists, and shows about terrorists.

Colleen, don't look at the hair dryer thread from a few months back. You'll be wanting one of those. Carolyn said she was all set to buy one, even though her hair dryer isn't broken.:D

Not very productive today:confused:. Will finish my cafe mocha and start my dinner prep, cajun boil.
 
Good Morning!

It is so easy to get out of the habit of exercising so early in the morning. I really didn't feel like working out this morning, but I made myself anyway. I did Hard Strikes cardio and core#1. I'm glad I did, I'm feeling more like myself.

I haven't hit perimenopause but it can go on for a couple of years can't it?

I don't follow the Bruins or hockey either, but everyone else I know does.

It is so much cooler today than yesterday! Have a great Friday!
 
Good morning!!

Me too Mary, it was hard getting up this morning but I did. I don't have all my energy back so I kinda felt I was just going through the motions. I did lower body BB segments. Yummy ice cream glad you enjoyed it.

I also got my walk in yesterday at work. I did 3 miles.

I hope missy is ok.
 
Betty, how is your head and neck today. I know the first few times I did UB BB I would feel it in my neck but I don't anymore. It's crazy all the muscle you have in your body and a change in how you workout you feel it differently.
 
Absolutely beautiful day here. Going to be sunny ad 75!!

Carolyn, good luck opening the pool today. What workout did toy end up doing? I can't wait to go out for a walk today.
 
Hi everyone,

My neck feels normal today, thanks. I did Intensity and Ab Circ Stab Ball Abs. I tell you, there is a lot of jumping in Intensity, esp in the high-impact HiiT part!:confused:. I even opted to use no risers since step seems to hurt my knees and feet.

Colleen and Mary, glad you are on the mend. Ease back into your routines. Remember those rest days; should prob have two a week.:D

Missy, I hope you're all right! You've been MIA.

Perimenopause can last up to 10 yrs, I've heard! Insane.
 
Hello!!! Im still here!!!

Just been busy....i have been working front desk for 2 days.....

Looking forward to 5 oclock!!!

Will catch up......bbl!
 
It was a gorgeous day today, perfection! Slightly cool, which I like.

Carolyn, you got your Xmas Tree fix pronto! Nice deals! I got the cutest compact mirror there a few wks ago for 1.50! It has a regular side and a magnified side.

My neck thing returned twice today. What on earth?? Both times it retreated fairly quickly with hydration. What the freak! I think I need sleep too! Too many days past midnight! I don't think it's from BB. It's cyclical.:confused:

Good night, friends!
 
Good morning!

I did GS B-Sh-Bis this morning. Phew, what a workout! I pretty much stuck with Cathe's weights and my muscles were trembling - must be because I'm still getting over my cold (that's my story and I'm sticking to it). I need to do these GS workouts more often.

Carolyn, there are too many things in the xmas tree shops that I don't know I want or need, so I avoid them!

Busy day today, it's prom day! DD has a race this morning, then we're headed to the mall for makeup. Then hair at 3, pick up flower for date, get dressed, and kids are all meeting at 5 for pics and limo. So exciting!

Have a great day!
 
Good morning!!! On our way home from grocery store!!! Trying to get everything done so I can lay out this afternoon!!!!

Hope everyone has a lovely saturday!!
 
Good morning! Gorgeous day!

Mary, prom day! How super exciting! Good luck!
Same weights as Cathe?? You rock!

Carolyn, last evening sounded like such lovely family time!
 
Carolyn, it does feel like a stiff neck. I think that's how my headaches manifest. It's not a migraine.

Missy, you are so industrious! I am just getting to bkfast now.
Lightly layer on the sun.

Speaking of Xmas Tree, years ago when the economy was flush, I saw Wedgwood off-white dishes there, but didn't need them. I only bought the 3 soup/cereal bowls there were. What a dummy I was!:confused: Now, there is mostly junk merchandise.:D

Hi Colleen! Hi Jean and Marie! Long time no talk!
 
Hi ladies!!!

Mary, good luck with prom tonight. How exciting. Good job getting a workout in. Hows is your cold? I'm feeling better but still a fit lethargic and still draining. How much can one blow their nose?

Betty, sorry about your neck and headaches. Get to bed early and maybe you need a rest day too.

Carolyn, good scores yesterday. Last night sounded like a perfect evening.

Missy, glad you are ok. Good job o. Getting Your errands out of the way.

No workout for me today unless you call ripping the kitchen apart and scrubbing down the counters, cabinets and appliances? I also vacuumed the baseboards and ceilings and then scrubbed the floors by hand. Im beat!!! Felt great to get it all cleaned and read for the summer. I'm just taking. Little rest now before I tackle more cleaning.

Hope everyone has a great day.
 
Colleen, that is a ton of cleaning! Feels great, doesn't it?

Carolyn, that's a lot of cleaning too! You guys, I am SO la-zy by comparison!:confused:

My friends and I went to a vegan/vegetarian restaurant for dinner. It was delicious! There was a deep-fried cauliflower appetizer coated with chickpea flour which was amazing! We also tried a smoothie made with beet, celery, spinach, carrot. The beet was overpowering! Tasted like soil! Sorry Missy and Carolyn!
 
Ptly cloudy, coolish, quite pleasant outdoors with a light jacket. Not much going on.

Last night dh rigged the spin bike monitor to take a wall plug. Stupid battery guzzler!!!:mad: Now I can see how many miles I rack up again. Refused to put new ones in since they don't last and it's a colossal waste! Makes you wonder, HELLO! Routine electronic here! How does one mess that up to make it eat batteries??

Have a nice day!
