Thankful 40's+

Hi everyone

Murphy - good workout. I should do Bootcamp off 4DS sometime, I really like it but rarely do it.

Lisa - that is such a bummer about your phone. Did you take the chance to upgrade?

Jody - wow, that is a shoe binge. Impressive! You will wear them eventually ... I like your comment about the rotation.

Mary - life keeping you busy, I see ...

Roxie - so are you doing a tailored KCM rotation?

So no workout for me, went into town for birthday shopping (friends' children). Also treated myself to a new shirt: http://www.zara.com/uk/en/woman/tops/trf/double-breasted-checked-shirt-c498008p2163519.html.
(That's just the one shirt, Jody :p)
First part of bedroom done, chest of drawers and bedside cabinets. Wardrobes tomorrow.
 
Good Morning,

I did KCM's Muscle Up 2 Plus Bonus Abs which are killer, Studio Sweat Spin Part 1 and Total Body Stretching, Guilt overtook me and I cancelled my pre-order I don't really need these.

Ronne-yes she designed a rotation for me. LOL about the 1 shirt.

Murphy-I don't do that dvd to often sometimes the KB or LIS Step.
 
I did GS Legs today (day 2 of rotation) and now I'm off to return 2 pair of the 4. Murphy, I'm still helping the economy even though I'm keeping the most expensive ones and the least expensive ones that I will use for work. Thanks for the extra justification.
Ronne, cute! I can see you wearing that even though I don't really have a clear picture of you in my mind other than slender and I think short curls and a redhead?
Oh and I just saw Cathe posted a few weeks ago in OD about her food choices so I guess that will answer my questions about what changes she made to decrease her inflammation.
ha ha, I forgot to post my actual w/o yesterday. I did AB express pm, 2 mile walk and a half version of ab circuits weights and plates abs.
 
Hello girls! Today did a premix from Intensity, the Hiit and BC. Lisa, I'm so sorry about your phone! I get so mad at myself when stuff like that happens. Boo did ok on walk, she didn't like the stairs, (I counted, there was 118 steps! In a row!). We carried her, she screamed the whole time, she must be afraid of heights! Jody, you work hard, you deserve to get whatever you want! Hope DD had a good birthday! Roxie, have you worked at the school lately? Ronne, so next week you will have a brand new bedroom? It will be like you are on vacation! Murphy, I think the KB is the only workout I do from those discs, I don't know why? I should. Well, have to get to some paperwork for school, semester is winding down! Yay! Have a good evening! Mary
 
Running late, why? because I went to lay down on the heating pad for my shoulder and I fell asleep for 2 hours! I probably won't sleep tonight now! I did CSS + step premix, 3.75 dog walk and vacuum-max.

Mary, yes I was mostly mad at my stupidity and how it happened, maybe it was just meant to be, sigh.

Jody, wow, GS Legs, I am in a workout funk and legs is the last thing I want to work (though I should). Good idea to return 2, I should have returned 1 of my tennis shoes I bought earlier in the week when I was on that tennis shoe frenzy.

Ronne, I did get a phone I liked better...guess it all worked out in the end. Here is my justification: Had we had insurance, with a $200 deductible and cost of insurance had we had it last 5 months, we actually only was $150 out of pocket, and I got a phone I like better..... It's pink and flowery!

Gotta run! waves to everyone else!
 
Lisa I agree, I don't think the insurance on cell phones is worth it in the long run, for my family anyway. How is your neck after computer break? GS legs was b/c of rotation, it was fine but I jodyfied it. I haven't done legs in a while either.
 
Hi everyone

Lisa - I agree with Jody, it's not worth insuring them. The excess and stuff is too much. Good workout.

Jody - Does jodifying make it easier or harder?

Roxie - I couldn't cancel now, the pics look really good! Make sure you don't buy it later ;)

Mary - good workout, I like that premix (anything avoiding the step basically).

Just taken delivery of DD's new phone. She's got a second hand iphone 4 off ebay. Seems to be OK. She's been saving her allowance for months. I'm quite impressed.
No great plans this weekend, got people coming for dinner tomorrow. I might try and get one workout in at least over the weekend, as the painter is here Mon & Tues next week.
 
Good Morning,

I did KCM TLC 2 Conditioning and 30 minutes on the TM and I will do planks later spent the morning cleaning house.

Mary-I still do the school thing but its not everyday just when they need me. I worked Monday and I am also working next Monday and Friday.

Ronne-I know the pictures are great its just that I don't want anymore high impact workouts and KCM is talking about coming out with a pyramid muscle up so I would like to get those.
 
Hello! Happy Friday! Today did KCM SS UB. Roxie, I'm glad you are getting some hours. Maybe it will lead to full time? Ronne, how fun for DD! Mine all want one, but I don't want to pay the monthly fees for them! Lisa, nap sounds amazing! I'm feeling over stretched lately. Work, kids, house, just not enough time. Jody, I need to pull out GS legs again soon, just so long! Hi Murphy! Did Shereta leave us? Have to go get the kids, more paperwork. Then hopefully some relaxing! Mary
 
Mary, I bet it was a good workout anyway! Semester over soon means holidays are upon us. Ronne, usually jodyfying a workout usually makes it easier, slower reps, skipping chapters, sitting on the futon drinking coffee....
I did FT today, i was better at it this time than the last.
 
Days are getting away from me......Yesterday, I did 3 mile dog walk and KCM weights both workouts.....I upped my weights for most exercises to intermediate level and no pain today!!!!!! Only when I get chilled on my neck or shoulder blade! Today was AOLI and another 3 mile walk (will snow and be cold next week, booooooo!). This nail thing (Jamberry) is taking more time than I was planning! If I calculated hourly pay I'd be in poverty, but I'm having fun (but ready to dial back a bit, I hope, I just got someone who signed on under me, crazy times).

Mary, I feel a lazy day tomorrow! I need a rest day (or my old tired body needs one).

Jody, lol I Lisa-fied my CSS and weights workouts earlier in the week....it's such a free feeling when you break the rules :)

Roxie, it was good getting back to KCM, I guess I just need a Cathe break, I'd been concentrating on her for months as I prepared for RT.

Ronne, those darn workmen put a cramp in your workouts, but the bedroom will be worth it!

Gotta run, need food for house!
 
Good Afternoon,

DH and I have managed to pick up a cold so I wasn't feeling a workout but ended up doing run/walk intervals on the TM for 30 minutes and I will do my planks later.

Lisa-sometimes we just need to shake things up thats why I did Cathe for a month then switched back to KCM.

Mary-I keep hoping I pick up more hours I also work the 18th.
 
I did GS C+T (superset ts pm) preceded by Intensity step only, ironically on 2 risers b/c I was too lazy to break it down to 1 set. Rainy and cold today, I intended to go to the green market but ended up at whole foods due to weather. I hope everyone had a nice weekend.
 
Hi all

Jody - sounds like you're getting some workouts in.

Roxie - hope you're feeling better.

Lisa - it's really good to switch workouts. I always feel refreshed when I pick something up I haven't done for a while. You're making great progress!

Mary - looks like we frightened Shereta off! I know what you mean about time, I have this mental list of things to do which I'm always working through.

Well, I've got to go to the post office this morning to send DD's phone back. The camera doesn't work properly! At least, we can get her money back. So back to searching again.
Had a busy weekend, we got rid of the old wardrobes and took the carpet to the tip. So I've done quite a lot of carrying stuff around again, and also did some tidying up in the garden.
Managed to do KCM Powersculpting on Sat (I think that's my favourite KCM) and did yoga yesterday.
Painter's ill so not sure if he's coming at all today.
 
Ronne, sorry about the phone DD found. I just got my mom's old 4. I'll use it for music and such. I bet you are excited about the bedroom getting done.
Mary, I skipped quite a few chapters in GS legs so it wasn't as long. Funny this week after I was home I kept wanting to use my badge to get through doors, even at the grocery, etc.
Roxie, sorry about your cold.
Lisa, the wraps keeping you busy? i finally painted my toes.
Murphy, getting any workouts in?
I did CCC express pm. Waves to all, I may not get back for a few days.
 
Good Evening,

I worked at the school today and had to take a kid to the principals office I felt bad but what can you do. I did KCM Stepboxing 1 today and will do my planks. Cold is kicking my butt. Tomorrow its suppose to get cold and I am headed to get 3-4" of hair cut off.

Ronne-powersculpt is a good one.

Jody-thanks good job with the workout.
 
Hello! Today did Cathe live, cardio hiit, fun. Too many jumping jacks for me, so I Jody-modified it! Jody, funny about your badge! I carry mine everywhere and obsess about losing it! Ronne, hope the painter showed up. I'm sure you just want it done. Roxie, discipline is always good for kids! Hope you are feeling better. Lisa, I was going to be lazy yesterday, then the kids wanted to take the dogs back in the valley, SO many hills! Hi Murphy! Very frustrated today, had to go back to dentist, need ANOTHER root canal, back on antibiotics, see the guy tomorrow, I'm so frustrated with old dentist, how could he have missed all these issues? I could have gotten them fixed before it lead to all this. Ok, I'm done, thanks for listening! Have a good night, Mary
 
Hi gang

Jody - funny about trying to use your badge everywhere. Well done on CCC, doing any part of that is an achievement!

Roxie - Stepboxing is a good one to do when you're feeling a bit rough.

Mary - so sorry to hear about your teeth problems - that is really annoying. Hope this is it for you.

Well, I managed to do some yoga yesterday in the end as the painter didn't come. He's here today though so should take two days.
Just put my iPod into my computer to update and it's frozen. I can't remove it, and it won't play. More technology woes! It's really old as well and I'd just sorted out all my music. So frustrating!
At least the work I was expecting arrived, so I can get on with that.
 
Hi ladies! So yesterday I did KCM Body shop, upped the weights and even the 1 arm rows out to side didn't make me hurt!!!!!!! I'm feeling more DOMS instead of pain! YEA, I'm so happy I feel I've turned a big corner! I still go for a massage today will see what she thinks. Yesterday I did a dog walk of 3 miles or so, I was nice when I started and brrrrrrrrrr windy and cold at the end! We had a temperature drop dramatically in a little bit of time. Actually I think we experienced all 4 seasons yesterday. TOday I did spinning for 60 min, no walk, it's COLD this week!

Ronne, oh, what a pain about the phone, I really get so frustrated with technology! Love/hate relationship!

Mary, oh my, you would think the old dentist should have had a clue! I've never had a root canal, but DH says they are no fun! And dog's really keep you for being lazy (mine are going to drive me crazy with this cold weather and I won't take them for a walk). Oh, went and saw DS house, really disappointing. Nothing was done the last week, he called up the contact he had and that guy was fired 10 days ago (no wonder nothing was done), so DS called the sales office and demanded a new contact, the new contact had NO INFO. Called back later and said drywall will be there in a week, DS said that is not good enough, he better get the drywall started tomorrow and he will be checking and if it's not there he will be getting another call (so proud of DS handling of this). DS asked about the 6 week accelerated schedule that was promised, and the new contact said he can't commit to that and that;s maybe why the other guy was fired. sigh. So, looks like we'll be ringing in the new year with a full house.

Jody, guess you're off to a mad work schedule again. Yes, these nails are keeping me busy (more than I want), I got a 2nd recruit, so I'll get some bonuses now, my other friend wants me to create personal designs for the nail wraps. That takes time, but is fun. So, I've been playing around with photo software, etc. I now have what I think is a cool idea. I'm going to take pictures of the dogs and put on a nail wrap. It will be a xmas gift for my DILs. They will love using them as accent nails.

Roxie, How many hours are you averaging? Didn't you prefer part time work anyway?
