Happy Monday Girls!

Everyone have a good weekend? I'm glad it's over. :7 I feel more in my own element during the week.

I am off to do Lowmax with my leg work in between step combos, upperbody and abs. I'll let you know how I make out.
Then it's CleanMax again.

Good moring Wendy, Terri, Charlotte, Cleo, Jess and Marie! And anyone else who may pop in. Anyone is welcome here. I think some people think this is a private thread! We need to think of a name for our next one.
Fall check in;
Staying in shape "after" summer check in;
Any ideas?
TTYAS,
Kali

HEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYY Kali! :)

So I have OFFICIALLY lost 3 pounds! It had been teetering in that direction but wasn't actually THERE yet...now it's THERE! WHHHHEEEEEEE! :7 lol

So, Kali, you really like weekdays more than weekends? I like weekdays a heck of alot more than I did when I was working but I still look forward to weekends because then my family and friends are around during the day...

Today is a circuit w/o, 30 mins extra cardio plus abs. I am considering BodyMax but may also opt for Boot Camp or C&W...or...okay okay...I have no clue what work out I'll be doing! I ADMIT IT! I am COMPLETELY indecisive! :p

So Kali, you know we probably aren't that far apart at all and both home all day...we should meet up one day and hang out! I know we are in the midst of trying to plan the GTG but that doesn't mean we can't do something first, right? How far from the NJ border are you??

I think "Fall Check In" is cool as is "The After Summer Check In".

TTYL!:)
 
Good Morning Ya'll!

Nobody lives near me:-(
Well this morning I am going to be doing: Tri's/Bi's, Legs n' Shoulders (shoulder only), SS Military Press and Chest and Back.
Then my upper body work will be done! I had a hard time crawling out of bed this morning. My legs felt like cement blocks so they will get a rest today!
I think I just might be able to open up all the windows tomorrow. It has been so hot this summer, the windows have stayed shut for so long! I love Fall here in my neck of the woods as it doesn't really start to get cold until November.
My daughter starts Governor's school tomorrow and will be riding with her friend that just got her driver's license....SCARY!

Have a great day and Kali, don't hurt yourself doing lowmax...that one burns!

Wendy,

The Governor's school has subjects in English, Science, Math and Technology. The school gives the students a taste of what it will be like in college to prepare them and my DD will earn college credits there. It will be much easier for her to get into a good college now and she will also have some credits to start with. They have hands on job training too. The county has paid for her books, tuition and everything else for her to go. It's a sweet deal for her! I am so proud of her!

Charlotte~~
 
I AM DONE!!:7 :7 And it took me just under 90 MINUTES! YES!!!
I did: the 1st 4 combos from Lowmax with my free leg work in between each one.
Then I did 8-3 sets of 12 rep upperbody exercises and abs from BodyMax and stretch which I really needed. My hamstrings are still killing me from PLB last week!!!!

WAY TO GO WENDY!!!!!!! :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 I am so proud of you!
Yes you are indecisive, that's ok. We love you here! LOL! I am I think 1 1/2 hrs. from the Jersey border. I'm gonna go on Mapquest and I'll let you know. Yes we can absolutley meet! Where do you live in Jersey? I have family in South River and I'm not sure where else. I'll find out tho. Have a great workout whatever the hell you decide to do! ;-)LOL!

Hi Charlotte! That Governor's school sounds like an awesome opportunity! I have my windows opened after the AC running all weekend. The humidity has broken here, possibly for good.
I wish we all lived close together. :( Any chance you'll go on the next road trip if there is one? Where are you anyway??

Kali,

I live in Luray. The north western part of Virginia. (Skyland Drive is almost in my backyard) South of Winchester and west of Northern Virginia (near DC)
Road trip? Don't know. Depends on when and what is going on at home.
Well I decided to open the windows anyways. Suppose to get up to 87, but the humidity has broke here as well. Might have to end up closing windows in turning on A/C later though. The heat kicks up fast around here.

Hey Kali, I'm in monmouth county nj on the shore line..probably about an hour or so from the western border of PA but I don't know if I am south or north of where you are in PA...

I used to date a guy in South River! This is going back years and he ended up being no good as most of my boyfriends were with the exception of my DH and only a couple of others! LOL

I was just outside playing frisbee and ball with Clyde while Joey watched from the comforts of his car seat on the porch. :) I considered taking a walk with Joey but even though it's not humid out and it's GORGEOUS in the shade, the sun is very strong already so I think I will nixx that idea...maybe later just before it gets dark...

I have not exercised yet but I will eventually! :)

ETA: what I MEANT to say is probably an hour or so from the western border of NJ (NOT PA! LOL)
 
I live in Keansburg and have no clue how far I currently am from South River...I'd have to go north to go south to get there (LOL-I know it sounds ridiculous but it's true!!!) so it would probably take 45 min to an hour maybe??? I'm not really too sure...Haven't been to that neck of the woods straight from my house...always start from my mom's house so it's a shorter ride...I'm sure it's not too bad though...
 
Ok. We are about 2 hours and 40 minutes apart. Are you familiar with Quakertown/Allentown PA at all? That is about the mid point between us. The map takes me to some route in Somerville that sound familiar? We will need really good directions if we're going to do this LOL!

"The map takes me to some route in Somerville that sound familiar?"

Are you talking about route 287 maybe???

I have been to the Qakertown/Allentown area in Pa but I'm not TRULY familiar with it. Good directions, a cell phone and a prayer should get me there though! :p
 
Yes 287 is it. I know how to get to Allentown/Quakertown I'm just not familiar with the area. So we'll have to find somewhere to meet. The boys start school next week so do you want to try for the week after Labor Day? You let me know as I am pretty flexible. I'm free between 9 and 3 so figure 1 1/2 hour drive for each of us. We could meet for lunch! Let me know. I still don't know about DH's trip to Germany. If it's on Oct. 1 I'm going to throw something! LOL.

What's your DH going to Germany for??

9/6-7-8-9 seem fine to me! Lunch sounds like a good plan. We can meet at 11 for an early lunch that way we have some time to yap before you have to head out for your boys. :) I, ofcourse, will be bringing my boy in tow! :+
 
He works at an Army Depot here and fixes and installs radars for the Air Force. Every now and then he has to go to whatever base needs the radar installed. So this time it's Germany. It's in October "sometime" he told me. I doubt it will be the 1st.

Yes that sounds like a good plan. I cannot wait to meet Joey! Why don't we try for Wed. or Thurs. since Friday may have more traffic.
Sound good?

Sound good to me, Kali!

So be honest... do you like it when your DH goes away? Like the "break"?? My DH went away on a trip early last year to Reno, NV for 5 days (pre-Joey days) and I LOVED it! I missed him but it was nice to just be able to be alone for a while....didn't have to worry about dinner or any of that cr*p! lol ;)
 
Yes. I like it a lot. I feel so independent. All I have to do is take care of the boys. When he first started going I hated it. Not anymore tho. I love being alone. That's why I like the weekdays better than the weekends. Me being sober and him not has put some space in between us. I'm dealing with it, but I admit I am looking forward to him going. I just hope it doesn't screw up the Road Trip.

Well hopefully it won't mess up the GTG but if it does we can reschedule...we have nothing set in stone yet and I'm sure the others would be okay with that too...


ETA: Great vaca pics Kali!
 
Hello everyone!

Congratulations, Wendy!!! My cousin had a baby recently and she always complains about how those last 10 pregnancy pounds are so hard to lose. You deserve to treat yourself for all your hard work (does not include chocolate cake ;)

Kali, is today the day you send you little one off to school?

I also start classes today. I finished my article late last night and I am going to go over it one more time before submitting it. Cross your fingers I am selected.

Tonight I am going to run and hopefully do some lower body. However, I didn't get much sleep so a nap may win.

Terri - hope you're feeling better.

Hi Charlotte!

Has anyone heard from Marie and Cleo?
