STS first time!

Hi friends!
It's my birthday today! I had lunch with the same two friends and we just hung out. It's so nice because they both work and we don't see each other that often.
My fave whipped cream bday cake after dinner. (I will freeze the extra in slices, btw.) Dinner is leftovers since I didn't have time to shop & cook. Spent it with my friends instead.:D

Carolyn, don't take it personally that your elem BF's father didn't recognize you. He might be losing his memory at such an advanced age.
What's up with your knee? How terrible. Pamper it.
How wonderful your GA sis is here. Nothing like a close sister to boost your mood.
I call that store Ocean State Junk Lot.

Missy, how awesome your friend is 68 and can keep up with you! Does she realize how special she is, because you're in such amazing shape??

Colleen, I must have missed a post when you mentioned your mom had breast cancer. I'm sorry to hear that.
Keep up the tests.
Glad your stomach is better.

The weather is nuts. Until mid-aft, we had sunny and humid, but now it is absolutely CHILLY and cloudy!!!:eek:
 
Betty!!! Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Betty. Happy birthday my dear friend!! Sounds like you had a fab day.

Happy Birthday Betty :)

Missy- So sorry to hear about Tim's friend. That is so sad! Suicide is hard to understand. As you say life is short enough.

Had a blast in CO! We did so much....zoo, circus, swim lessons, hiking, storytime! Lots of fun! It was so cute to see the kids interact.

B is officially crawling. He is still slow at it though and in that awkward phase but soon enough he will be cruising.

I've been busy back at work. It's been crazy on the Geri Psych unit lately. I love it though. Lots of action. That being said though I'm excited to start my new position June 22.

I work evening shift the next 2 days so I'm hoping to catch up on personals if it's slow.

Hi to everyone! Keep up those workouts! I've been mostly into walking and yoga lately :)
 
Hi friends.


Where Is everyone today??

Today I did 45 minutes of ride. I woke up too late to do the hole thing. I'm also going to walk at lunch today.

Marie, b is just too cute. Glad you had a nice trip and what a great milestone that b is crawling! Watch out and make sure you are baby proofed!! Can't believe he is 7 month old!!
 
Hi everyone!

It's feeling pretty humid in the house.:mad: I just hate, hate the humidity that comes with warm weather. It feels like having asthma on the entire body. Naturally I did a drenching Cathe (HiiT DWP) and a PK kettlebell drills (26 mins with many pauses).

Marie, how super exciting that Breckin is starting to crawl!!! What a milestone! Exciting times!
Sounds like an enviable time with your sis and niece!
Walking and yoga are a great choice! Never feel guilty! Speaking as one who feels guilty!:D
30 days and counting to your new job!!!

Colleen, 45 mins of Ride is still awesome! You're also doing a great job walking at lunch.
My whipped cream cake gives me lactose bloating effects. Oh well, it's worth it all!:D But not the sugar that gloms on to my waistline.:confused: Permanently.

Carolyn, I just know you'll have an amazing time with your sis!

Hi Mary, Missy, Jean. Missy, I hope Tim is feeling less sad.
 
Happy Birthday Betty! Sorry I missed it but it sounded like you had a great day!

I did GS CH&Tris yesterday, and my arms are still talking to me today! I really have to keep doing these GS workouts. I can't do any leg workouts though, they really seem to aggravate my glute/hamstring area. This morning I did Hiit DWP, I was moving slowly this morning and didn't have time for anything else.

Colleen, how was UY Balance? That and Flexibility I have not done yet.

Marie, so many changes for Breckin, and how cute he is!

Carolyn, hope you had fun shopping with your sis! Does she workout too?

I also walked today at lunch. Yesterday I was expecting it to be cold and it was super hot and humid, and today I was expecting it to be hot and it is cool. Crazy weather, but the weekend looks good!
 
Mary, we were channeling each other with HiiT DWP!
You've been very consistent with your lunch time walks. Way to go in adding more calories torched.
Thanks for the bday wishes.
Yesterday's humidity was sooo gross. Then around three the dry cool air came and it was such a huge relief. But the muggies are back.:confused:

Having my lunch: sweet potato, papaya, and a slice of cake!:D Overload of carbs!
 
Hi Ladies.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BETTY !!!!!!!!!!!!!! It sounds like you had a nice day.

Missy Don't you have a birthday coming up on the 26th? I believe you will be 31. I'm sure Tim will spoil you with lots of gifts.

Marie That is a cute pic of B. Just wait till he starts walking. You won't get any rest. Like Colleen said , Make sure you are baby proofed. My daughter fell on the coffee table edge and had to have 3 stitches when she started walking. But I'm sure you are up on it.

Carolyn Enjoy your time with your sister.

We saw our house and it is coming along nicely. They are putting on the siding now and today are starting the inside trim. The builder hopes to be done the end of July. We picked out all the paint colors, bed set and window coverings. The color of my Solarium/exercise room is going to be "Atmospheric" SW6505. It is a nice blue. Next month we meet at the house and go over where the coverings will be hung. We got a new GPS on Monday and that lady took us on so many back roads. It was nice to not be on highways all the time.

Jean
 
Hi Jean, glad to hear from you! Your house sounds so wonderful. Why do they provide bedspreads and window treatments too? That's unusual. Is your house coming furnished?
That is a gorgeous color for your solarium! That's got to be my fave room, esp since it's also your exercise room.
Thanks for the bday wishes.

Carolyn, tell me about zulily. I signed up for their emails, but I just don't get their premise. They only sell their products to subscribers and only a limited qty?
We didn't get the t-storms last night you described. Too bad.
You were selfless to give your sis the Prana capris! She owes you!:D
Love the idea that Breckin is doing pushups! Marie, I agree--use it as your avatar!

Remind me not to steam clean my floors on a humid day.:confused:

This evening's weather forecast for the weekend has taken a turn for the worse. Rain on Saturday!
 
Good evening.....

Jean....my bday is the 26th....but I will only be 30!!!! That's so sweet you remembered!!!!

Today, was the funeral....Tim is doing great....he is at peace....just doesn't understand it.....but nobody ever will. That's too sad.....

As for my workouts today....did hour of walking this am.....45 minutes tonight.....and now on spin bike....just getting some miles in....I think I may do the list rotation....I got great results with it in the past.....I can't seem to lose an ounce of what I gained....and it isn't muscle....its fat!!!! Not happy about that
....but I guess that's what happens when you hurt yourself and can't do what your body is use too....its just be....just saying!!!! Lol

I picked my first cucumbers today....can't wait to eat them tomorrow!!!!

Hope everyone has a lovely evening!!!!

BTW....I am off Friday, sat, sun, and Monday!!!! Oh yeah 4 days....so excited!!!!

Be back soon....
 
Good Morning everyone. Today is cloudy and going to rain.

Sorry to confuse you guys. We met with the decorator and picked out everything with her. She is in no way connected with the builder. Everything we buy is coming from the store that she works at. She gets alot of decorating jobs from the people that live where I am moving so she knows the builder and works with her often. So for instance we picked out the bed set to purchase from the decorator and then she helped us pick out what paint color would go good in the bedroom with that bed set. Then she will contact the builder and tell her what color to paint that room.

Missy sorry to try to make you a year older than you are. I had the wrong year written down.

Jean
 
Good morning,

Jean, that is so cool with the decorator!! It will be here before you know it. I am so excited for you.

Betty, your cake sounds so good. I had a sweet potato for lunch too along with salmon and zucchini.

Got my period yesterday. Yuck.

This morning i did bb recovery and 20 minutes on the rebounder. I hope to walk again today. Yesterday I did 3.25 miles. I also did abs last night.

I couldn't sleep last night either. I feel asleep past midnight and was up at 5. I think work was on my mind.

Missy enjoy your 4 day weekend. I am off tomorrow and Monday as well. Can't wait!!
 
Colleen, that pose looks incredible! And tough. I'm going to keep that in mind.

Carolyn, I never feel it in my tris either.

Soupy mess weather-wise. So humid.
 
hello.....i went to lunch with the office for my bday....I had only a salad! Tried to be very good.....

I am really looking forward to my time off....hopefully the weather is good and hot...so I can lay out 1 hour everyday....so I will be tan for next weekend...the fitness show (June 1st).....so excited!

Carolyn-hope you knee feels better.....and thanks for kicking me in the ass....I know I have to get back to my weights!

Colleen----enjoy your time off too!

Jean---I cant wait till you move into your new home...so exciting!

Betty---you would die here in the south....its always a hot mess here! LOL

Back to work....be back soon!:p
 
Good morning, friends!

Rainy weather till Sunday. Yesterday's humidity was ridiculous. It is so unpleasant to be outdoors when it's like that. I beat a hasty retreat.

Will likely do BB LB & PK kettlebells Core later; have to return them today.

Have a great day!

Sorry your friend cancelled for your walk this morning. Do you need new shoes by any chance? That was always a talk tell sign that I needed new shoes, my knee would get funny. I'd get new sneakers and it would go away. Just a thought.
