Thank you!

Abbe...

Cathlete
Thank you to Cathe, Chris, Nancy, Kathy, Lorrayne, Debbie, Cedie, Brenda, Jai, Cyndi, and all the others who made the roadtrip possible! You all worked SO hard, and did a fantastic job. You made everyone feel welcome and at ease.

It was wonderful seeing Cathe again, and meeting up with old and new friends this past weekend. The weekend seemed to fly by. If only there had been a few more days to spend with Cathe and the roadtrippers! :)

Thanks again to everyone!

Love,
Abbe

It was awesome, wasn't it!! I had an even better time this year than last. I didn't think that was possible.

Thanks and ((((HUGS)))) to everyone!!!!!!!!!
 
It sure was great seeing everyone! I'm thrilled to see that everyone had a great time. That weekend sure flew by, didn't it?
 
Thanks!

You are welcome Abbe! It was great to finally meet you. The whole weekend flew by so quickly. I am glad you had a fun experience.
 
Catherine, I'm also tired and my entire body is simply fatigued. DOMS are just starting to talk to me in my quads. No idea why... :eek:
 
I second that Abbe!

I also wanted to say thank YOU so much for the lift Saturday night. That was really sweet of you! It was so nice to meet you and I'm so happy to "see" you on the forums.:):)

Hi Angie! It was really great meeting you, too! I enjoyed our chat. You are more than welcome for the ride, and thank you for putting up with my search for the skim milk :D!

Lorrayne, I read you were held up at the airport. I am glad that you made it home safe and sound. I was thinking about you today and wondering how you made it through the workday (were you able to stay awake?).

Debbie, it was great to finally meet you, too! By the way, drugstore.com has OPI Red on sale!

I had the same experience, Catherine! I didn't feel any DOMS until I got out of my car and had trouble straightening my legs, LOL! I could feel it the rest of Sunday night. Today, I am just a little bit tired, but in a good way. I also feel energized. A Cathe roadtrip weekend leaves you feeling like you can do almost anything :).
 
Hi Abbe,

I decided to take today off to recuperate. There was no way I was going to get behind the wheel of my car after sleeping for 4 hours. I was able to do some work here from home; but did manage to take a cat nap this afternoon.

My back and neck have knots everywhere from that wonderful airplane seat. Sitting there for 12 hours has put my back completely out of alignment. Thank goodness for heating pads! Yes, my legs were talking to me as we deplaned this morning. However, they feel great today.

How are your legs feeling now?
 
Glad to hear you didn't go to work today, Lorrayne. My legs feel fine today. I don't know if you have ever read about it, but I swear by the Alexander Technique for spinal alignment. There are certified teachers all over the country.
 
Thanks to Abbe and EVERYBODY!!!!

Abbe and EVERYONE, you are all SO welcome!!! It was our pleasure, and we really do mean that. Seeing you all having such a fantastic time was all the thanks we needed.

And thank you all so, so much for the adorable card, the gift certificate to Cathe dot Com (I am eyeing a pull-up tower and you all are helping me buy it! ;)), your wonderful little individual surprise gifts for us -- it was like Christmas morning for us! -- and the hugs and thank-yous and million other ways that you made us three feel very appreciated. We feel deeply privileged to be able to help Cathe do these trips every year, and each trip and each group has a special place in our hearts.

((((((((HUGS)))))))))))) to Abbe and all the August '08 Trippers!!!! WE MISS YOU ALL!!!
 
I miss everyone so much!

Hi Everyone! I just posted a separate thank you to you all in another thread but wanted to join you here too to say how much I miss you.
It is amazing the bond we form after spending a fun weekend together in fitness and friendships.

Abbe, it was so nice to see you again after, gosh, I think 7 years. I think I was pregnant with my second child when I saw you on the main floor at a fitness convention with a few of your forum friends.

It was also fun to see so many of you for a second and even third time on our roadtrip.

So glad you all made it home safely with a bit of DOMS in tow. Lorrayne, be sure to get some sleep too.

Speaking of sleep, I think I am going to try to head to bed now. I hope to see you all again someday and please be sure to read my thank you to you in my other thread. You're the best!!!!
 
Hi Cathe! Thank you so much for your hospitality, and for motivating us, making us stronger, and allowing us to connect with you and others who share the joy of fitness. We all left with an extra sense of positive energy, thanks to you.

You have an extraordinary memory! Yes, we did meet at the fitness convention in NYC, and we also met at a AAAI convention in AC a LONG time ago, and at your roadtrip in 2000. Time sure does fly when you're having fun :D!
