First of all...I have to say...WTH am I doing up at 7 on a Saturday for goodness sakes?!?! Second of all, sorry I have been MIA most of the week...Just lots going on on here...and some personal stuff I am trying to deal with too. And there is always the Diva to keep me busy! Thirdly, we have a neighborhood cookout this evening, and it is raining...The Diva is going to lose her mind if for some reason this thing is canceled! Please send sunny vibes for the afternoon! Fourthly, I still have the headache from he!! which is mostly why I am up at this time of morning on a weekend.
As far as workouts are concerned, I ended up doing one of the new Ellen Barrett Studio workouts yesterday, Slim Sculpt. I have been looking for an alternative to Squeeze on those light days, and I definitely liked this one, but not as much as Squeeze. The Studio dvd was definitely an intermediate workout....but it was what I needed for the day, I guess. I do have some little DOMS in my shoulders, so I guess that is good. It is a pilates based dvd with lots of standing work. Typical Ellen Barret moves, though. Nothing earth shattering. I will be doing some sort of cardio today with chest from 4DS...or maybe from CTX since I am not in the mood to do lots of pushups.

Glad you won your baseball game last night! I am sure it is because of your stellar abilities!!! Have a safe drive this morning, too. Hope you little one slept through the night with no rumblings so that you aren't tired today. My Diva still crawls in the bed with me sometimes...especially after a nightmare. She is a snuggler, too, and is all up on me in the middle of the night. Ugh. I put a pillow in between us so that she can't get but so close...lol. I didn't realize your DH has an insulin problem...I am guessing it is under control?
Wendy...
Hope you are getting some fun in between taking care of your friend. Hugs coming your way!
Kim....
So sorry to hear about the tooth...I know that is not any fun. I hate to have any sort of pain in my mouth...I can deal with it anywhere else but there. I can tell you that I wouldn't have been doing housework if I had a sore mouth....LOL! The Diva's sleepover is next Friday...and it looks like all of the girls from her class will be here...We went and got some things for the party yesterday after school. She is so excited!!
Sandra...
Hello, my dear! How are the classes at the Y going?? How much longer until you are done? Yes, the crazy neighbors will be at the 'do tonight, but since the rest of the neighborhood will be there, it will be easy to slip away if I get caught for too long. I think I have fixed some of the boundary issues with them when I was rude a couple of weeks ago...LOL. Hope you had fun with Eoin yesterday...after I go to Toronto, do I get to be an honorary Canadian???? I can't tell you how much I am looking forward to visiting your country! CBL has been there before, but not me. Sounds like your X+ rotation is working well for you! How wonderful to catch that glimpse of back muscles when you weren't expecting it!!! My dd still has nightmares, too, although she doesn't usually remember them.
Laurie and Jeanette....
Hope you guys are having a wonderful relaxing weekend!!!!!
Traci and Tracy...
Saw you have both made brief appearances...so just waving hello!
Okay....think that catches me up for a bit. I need to go make chili and pasta salad, but not really feeling like it right now. Maybe I will lay in the bed a bit longer and keep my eyes closed to the world for just a few more minutes. Hope everyone has a great day!!
Kisses to all......
Debra
