Good Morning Ladies,
I got all but the last set of Kenpo finished before I had to fast forward to the stretch. I cut it off by 10 minutes. I had to get in the shower and leave for my massage. I never know what traffic is like, and ended up getting there 40 minutes early. UGH! I played on my blackberry for a little bit until Rulan realized I was in my car. LOL
I thought I got a good cardio workout because everytime I looked at my hr monitor I was in my zone. But, after all was said and done, my average was 137 with 177 max. Could it be so low due to the warm-up, stretch, and omitted 10 minutes?

Jeanette... Awww. I would have been freaking too!!! I can't handle standing on the Kimmell Center's indoor roof top garden without breaking out in sweats and telling the kids to stop looking over the side rails. Just talking about it makes my hands sweat!!!! That sounds soooo scary!!! What was the Captain thinking? Did he realize that there was such a steep drop-off? I'm so glad you guys didn't fall!!! I was thinking of doing something from 4DS today. Will think about it while I homeschool.
Debra... Going over algebra problems seems to be normal for a intro physic course. Soon, you'll actually have to use it!!!
I can't wait to see the Diva's hair too! Patti asked about you last night. Hope your head feels better today!!!
Hi to Laurie, Patricia, and Kim.
Have a great day ladies!!!

First day of school today! There was a meet the teacher afternoon yesterday. So we stopped by the school to drop off the supplies and meet the teachers. DS of course got all sorts of attention. In the evening he went to football practice for a few minutes to say hi and then we stopped to buy some sweats that will fit over his cast. It's getting cool out so far he's being wearing shorts, none of his pants would fit over the cast. We also got his head buzzed so that it would be easier to wash.
I was supposed to be back at work today but I am taking the rest of the week off as family medical leave to make sure ds is ok at school. He wiped out on his crutches just going from the living room to the kitchen last night and had ++ pain. DH was worried that he had shifted the fracture but he seems ok now after some painkillers and a good night's sleep.
So Cathe never posted a Sept rotation (strange) so I think I'll do the Jan '08, I was doing the X so never did that one. It's a weightloss focus with lots of cardio and I would love to shed a few lbs before STS. I need a schedule to keep me on track or I tend to take way too many days off.
Deb Glad that the headache is getting better. Aren't haircuts a great way to raise your spiritis!
Jeanette- Don't give me another excuse not to eat clean! I could just see myself saying might as well wait until STS comes out! The searching for the golf balls doesn't sound like fun. Do you really think the critters take them??
Laurie I believe you that you're tired!! What a busy summer you've had! You must have had yesterday off work, are you back today!
Wendy Sounds like your being smart about your workouts by listening to your body and respecting your injuries. Glad that the first day of school went so well, are the girls excited! Are the boys back in school too! Are they all high school age??
Patricia Busy week for you! The weekend at the cottage sounds like a blast! I bet you guys will be there lots next summer!
Got to go get the kids ready for school. I'm going to play the "Back to School" song from Grease II to wake them up. LOL Kim

Morning Coolers,
Well yesterday the workout didn't happen. Oh well! But I did manage to get the kitchen cleaned up. So today I have gotten Power Hour done, and I will do the 2m run in after work. Cami and I will have fun with that run, since it is not hot at all today!
Cami is just fine, apparently she has warts on her tongue that will fall off eventually. This is because of contact with other dogs. So this is another thing that she has gotten from doggie daycare. Now I'm starting to wonder if I should not take her there anymore. I know she really enjoys it though.
Jeanette, No way can that pink putter be causing you problems. I would be the same way with the sidehills. I have a major fear of heights. I will not stand by the railing, but will stand in the middle and look out. I'm back to work today, and starting today am getting my eating back on track. Now that my weekends are not controlled by an acting schedule. I so had to LOL about the eating/exercising smilie you have. What a hoot!
Wendy, OK I will embrace this last year of elementary, because I am like you with the middle school. But my reasons are for much different reasons. Middle school is when the children start to get on the SEX thing. Makes me want to shudder thinking about it. I totally agree with the P90X+ and faire being comparable.
Kim, I made up a rotation for myself, I will be doing 3 weeks of full body endurance workouts (Cathe & Tony P90X+ and the One-on-One Road Warrior), then going to 3 weeks of body parts. Have not decided yet what workouts I want to use. Thinking a combo of GS and P90X (starting with the workouts that where in week 5). And then going to 3 weeks of 4DS and P90X (doing the rotation from week 1). Will see how it goes. Really going to be mixing this one up a bit.
Patricia, Oh the pile of laundry, I have not even looked at that yet. But that will be on the agenda for my evenings this week. Not one of my favorite things to do. You will be going to a Nascar race right? Sounds like the cabin is coming along really well, and Yipee on getting the water running. That has to be a huge help.
Debra, It was really hard to see youngest getting on the bus for school yesterday. Should have seen my oldest this morning for her first day of school. Told DH that we are in such BIG trouble, she looked so pretty. Reminded her twice today, that she needs to concentrate on her studies instead of the drama happening in school. Because ya know HS is all drama, drama, drama!!!
Have a great day!

Okay, did Imax2 and the extra exercises listed on the Jan '08 rotation. Kids came home for lunch and the morning seem to go fine. DS told me that he fell out of the wheelchair on the way to music, his friend was pushing him and they were going down a ramp. He didn't seem bothered by it. Maybe tomorrow we'll just go with crutches instead of the wheelchair.
Now, I'm starting to feel quilty being home as I'm on family sick time but ds is doing just fine at school and I'm at home hanging out by myself. Oh well, I guess it makes up for spending most of my vacation days from last week at the hospital. I feel like I'm stuck at home in case he calls though.
So Laurie, is middle school grade 7 for you guys? Yuck, on the warts on Cami's tongue.

Power Hour DONE!!! I skipped a few of the crunches and the shoulder work. Eating a post workout meal before I get ready for school.
Kim, Why don't you do something for yourself for a change. Get a pedicure or manicure.
Chat more later.

Evening All:
I did Slim Series Shape it Up last night but no w/o today as I donated blood. Will try to get up early tomorrow as there won't be any other time to do it. Trying to get on the road by 5pm and that might be hard as not sure if I can duck out of work early to do that. Depends what get's thrown my way at the last minute.
Haven't had time to read up. Thinking of bring the laptop with me to see if I can piggy back on someone's wireless.
Have DS all packed up, now to pack myself and give myself a lip wax. So lots yet to do before I can hit the hay.
Will pop in tomorrow from work.

Hi gals,
Had a great golf lesson after work tonite. I just love my instructor! He breaks things down so well for me. Got some things to write down and put to practice.
Patricia, it's great that you donate blood. Wish I could. I get kind of shocky or something, veins collapse, blood flow stops. It's not pleasant.
Kim, OMG on your DS falling out of the wheelchair. Kids are so tough. I just hate to see them get hurt. Hope he's feeling better every day. Did you see that Cathe posted a September rotation? I think I'll do it, but not sure when I'll start as the 4DS weight workouts really do me good.
Debra, did you get a picture of Julia's haircut? Get that desk cleaned? I've got so much I should be doing but have been procrastinating, like the grasshopper I am.
Laurie, yuk on the warts on Cami's tongue! I've seen horses with warts around their muzzle, but apparently it's a virus and goes away on it's own. I am so darned cautious near edges or cliffs. Seen too many movies that ended badly. Heck, I'm just a big chicken. When I get out of the Rhino and DH drives through the obstacle, it doesn't look scary at all, but when I'm in the Rhino, ooooooh I hate that off-center feeling. I think the pink putter will be replaced next year. I tried out some better ones today and they feel so much steadier. Probably better clubs are in my future next year.
Wendy, so you don't like heights or sidehills either? Actually, when DH negotiates the obstacle, it doesn't look very scary, just feels that way to me. There is a really great ATV trail in Utah called the Paiute ATV Trail. We've discussed vacationing and doing the trail, but the way I've been about obstacles, I'm thinking I'd make it so miserable for him and myself. I wouldn't mind if he did it with some friends or with the kids. He could drop me off at a golf course instead. Power Hour is one I don't have. Do you like it?
Will check in in the a.m.
