STS first time!

Hello ladies!
I did Legs and Glutes this morning, trying to whip these legs into shape without doing squats. Tomorrow will be my last STS workout, shoulders bis and tris.
We had no sleep Tues night, dd's levels would not budge above 100, had to keep checking her every half hour and giving her something sweet. In the past they have always been too high.
My insurance is terrible this year. Previously I had a co-pay and then most things were covered. This year I have a huge deductible before insurance will kick in anything. One of their selling points with this insurance change was that we could 'shop around' - I don't want to shop around, and I figure my dr. knows more about what tests to run and medications to prescribe than I do. It is absolutely insane.
I watched DA as well, I am glad that Bates knows what happened to Anna but we just know something bad is going to happen. And what is up with the new ladies maid? She seems like a nice person, unlike O'Brien, but how is she linked to Thomas? And poor Edith, what happened to the guy she was in love with?
I am going to try to go out for a walk today, even though it is cold, I just need some fresh air. Sounds like you are all doing great on your workouts. Jean, I did UY for a while but it really strained my wrists, I'm glad you are enjoying it.

Mary I am so sorry to hear that her levels aren't doing what you want. Does the Dr. say this is normal at the beginning? This must be so worrisome. I hope things get better .
I am also happy that Bates knows what happened. You know something bad is going to happen. People can never be happy on these shows. I don't understand what the new Ladies maid has to do with Thomas. He seems like she owes him for something.
I think their are some things you can put on your wrists during yoga. I am going to check them out. I would hate to give it up. I already have carpal tunnel and tendonitis.
I saw this cute sign made from weathered wood that said "This is my Happy Place". My husband brought home a pallet from a house being built across the street and we are going to make me one of those signs for my exercise room. He is good at painting . We need to find some free stencils on line. It should turn out pretty nice.

I went food shopping. Ugh, I have a heavy neck/head from all those winter clothes and my handbag. Exhausting! My handbag didn't feel this heavy before winter. I carry minimal. I'll be looking forward to Yin after I walk the dog shortly.
Mary, you hang in there. Every day is a learning experience. You and your family will definitely get dd's levels balanced soon. Different foods and beverages have different effects on her body and there are so many of them.
I saw that Gillingham and valet will return in mid-Feb or so. Since they can't have Bates go to jail again, something else will happen. Nothing short of murder or castration would satisfy me.
bbl on others'. Otherwise I'll never get started on UY. It's getting late!

Ye gods, why haven't I done Yin in so long?? It felt sooo good! I dozed off in upright poses.
Jean, I absolutely love Travis' face and voice, his cast and crew (they feel like family now), the fabulous instrumental music, the set!
The new maid wasn't really introduced but she knows Thomas from the past and owes him something. At least she doesn't seem devious. Yet. I understand that if everyone were nice and happy all the time there wouldn't be a show, but sometimes I just hate the evil that they conjure up, like OBrien, Thomas, Edna, Green, etc
Wags is what Carolyn has for her wrist. It's too pricey for me so I wear my lifting gloves and it works fine. At TJM today I saw yoga gloves. Not a common item.
How crafty that you guys will make the sign! Love it. Pic, please, when it's all done.
Mary, great job sticking with STS. Is it Meso 3?
Thank goodness Bates knows because whenever I saw Anna's anguish I wanted to cry. Mrs Hughes tells her to move on, can you believe? Like she broke her leg or something trivial.
Edith's beau will probably be detained forever in Germany or something.
Carolyn, how ever did you accomplish so much?? You must have a 30-hr clock! I was out for 3+ hrs and hadn't even exercised. My afternoon is done. Ds should be home any minute.
Your trail mix sounds delish!
All that killer clearance and nothing? What willpower!

I guess I will re-look at Marie's balls too. But omit the coconut flakes, if I remember correctly.
Making potato/kale soup but subbing leftover chicken for sausage.
I hate school mornings too but sleeping later means vacation or summer, and that means kids sleep till noon (nag, nag) and are in front of computer all day. Whatever happened to kids playing outside all day in the summer??

Well, for one thing, I don't have those oats, only steel-cut, which are probably inedible raw. Maybe I'll have to buy. Pumpkin ones sound great too. Try to incorporate Craisins.
I would sub hemp seeds for flaxseed since I don't have them, and omit coconut flakes (yuck)!
The soup was delish! Then had a hefty slice of Whole Foods apple pie, baked locally in Medford, my old haunting grounds!

Happy Friday!
This morning I did D36, the last one from STS! It really was tough to lift the heavy weights so early in the morning, but I know I won't do it if I wait til later when I get home. I plan to go out for a walk at lunch too. I went for a short walk yesterday and I felt so much better.
I am hoping the work day goes by fast!

Missy, I'm sorry to hear you had horrible side effects from the med and hurt your foot! Enjoy your afternoon with dh and your nap! Here's one remedy for your sinus drainage: oil pull with coconut oil. If not this oil, try olive or some other natural oil. It really works! First thing in morning or last thing before bed, or both!
Carolyn, you make me want to try CSS with step next week! Tuesday I'll do GG though. Time for legs again.
Ugh, the music in AS was terribly mismatched so it makes the workout not enjoyable! Did Med Ball Ab Circuits after.

Good morning. Our temps are going to 45 today with sun. I love watching snow melt. Today I did Pure Strength back , bi and abs. We are going down to the bay today and try to get some nice bay pics with snow. I am making a frozen lime cheesecake for the chili cook-off . I think I will make it today in case it doesn't turn out.
Mary Congrats on finishing STS. Any idea what rotation you will do next?
Missy Your poor toe. I am sure that hurt. Enjoy your 1/2 with Tim. Eat clean.
Carolyn enjoy your day with your Mother. That is great that you found another w/o that you love. I so wish I enjoyed legs as much as you do. I don't care what you say your problem areas are , you have got to have great legs.
