*** Weekend Coolers ***

[MommaPew]

It's Friday and it couldn't have come sooner. In the middle of year-end and having constant computer problems at the worst time

Let's see, I did Lowmax last night. Is that ever a tough w/o after doing legs the night b/4. Happy to say I completed the whole thing though

I tried taping Survivor during my w/o and of course when I go to watch it I see the it didn't tape At first I thought I screwed up but the VCR has been giving me grief for a while so figured it was time to hook up the DVD recorder so did that and it actually didn't take as long as I thought it would. So I taped Survivor on the timeshifting channel so will be able to watch it tonight. My only concern now is the DVD player I moved into my w/o room doesn't play DVD's that I've recorded so will have to figure out what to do for that.

Jeanette - how was your hair appt last night?

Kim - did things go okay at vet yesterday. Warm hugs coming your way

Thanks for the all warm hugs for our vet visit last night. She's gone. I spent the evening cuddling with ds on the couch, he is devastated. The house feels so empty.

LOL on the priorities, with ds's broken leg, I was more worried about our family trip while DH's concern was the hockey season.

What do you think about Survivor, Patricia? I'm having a hard time liking anyone this time around.

Going to be home all day today, as the dishwasher repair person is coming between 9-1 and the water heater inspector is coming between 12-4. Also supposed to get a Fed Ex delivery at some point. I want to workout but I don't want to be in the middle of a workout when repairman show up.

Promised dd I would take her to High School Musical 3 tonight. Kim

Good morning coolers,
Today was 4DS Bootcamp. Tonite will be a bike ride.

Patricia, my hair turned out fine. It's dark brown with carmel highlights, as usual. I have it done kind of subtley so I think it looks more natural. That Lowmax workout is a toughie and really makes me sweat buckets.

Kim, (((hugs))). So sorry for your loss. Don't you love those huge windows of time that the repairmen say they will be there?

Sorry to be mia, but I have been so busy at work. Had a supplier meeting every day for our project. And then of course all the notes that had to be compiled from those meetings. It was actually a lot of fun, but it sure took up a lot of time. Of course I still had to keep up with all the other parts of my job too.

The wedding was a blast, and I'm hoping to figure out how to get a pic on my profile. We watched oldest DD at her conference meet, and left right from there. We got to Chicago, and made the mistake of getting off the freeway at the exit that google maps told us too. It took us 30 min. to go 6.6 miles. Checked into our hotel, zipped our clothes on and headed to the wedding. I'm so glad that weddings don't actually start on time. After the wedding we had some time to kill before we had to be on the ship, so we had a drink at our hotel. The strangest experience was drinking alcohol while the ship is moving. I only had two glasses of wine, and it felt like more because of the movement of the ship. They couldn't go out any further than the breakwaters, so we just kept turning and turning and turning. They had appetizers until dinner started. Then you had your choice of five different items for your first course, and five for the second course. The desert course they just put out on a table. The wedding cake was very pretty, but tasted awful! It was sweetest day, so they shot fireworks off of Navy Pier. That was pretty cool. Once I was on dry land I didn't feel like a drunk anymore. Went back to our hotel, and went to the bar! Overall it was way to much fun!

My workouts are all screwed up because of my work week, but I'm going to be getting back into the swing starting on Monday!

I see we are starting the weekend on Friday now, what a great idea!

Happy Sat. morning Coolers

Worked late yesterday so no w/o for me. Will do Cardio Kicks today at some point. Want to go out and buy a coffee table and side table today + need to make a lasgna for a Halloween potluck later today. DS is dressing as Spiderman. Hubby gone to the cottage to close it + we're getting a survey done today of the property.

BTW I sucessfully taped Survivor on the DVD recorder so I guess I'm now in the 21st Century by packing up the VCR

Laurie - Wow, sounds like you had a good time at the wedding you lush I sure do love a new challenge at work but wouldn't it be nice if they took away some of your normal duties b/4 while working on a project. I'm in that boat right now too so its just one frantic day after another. Thats what I get for being bored this spring with not enough to do. Be careful what you wish for

Kim - I agree with you on Survivor, no one really standing out for me except for the lawyer (Mr. cutie pie) that the gay guy has a crush on. I can never remember their names until they get to the merge and are a smaller group

Oh I posted new pics www.picturetrail.com/mommapew

Just enough time before we head out for breakfast for a quick update. Did Cardio Kicks yesterday + CoreMax #2. Had a good time at the Halloween party. Couldn't get DS to wear his custome but the other kids were not overly dressed up so no big deal. Good thing I have Imax2 scheduled for today to work off all those goodies. I actually restrained myself pretty good if I do say so myself

Off today to buy DS a really good snow suit and boots. Might even buy some snowpants for myself.

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend so far.

Glad to see Laurie back! Sounds like the wedding was a blast!

Patricia, I can't get the picture trail to open?? Do you think ds will go trick or treating?? They were predicting snow over night but woke up to none! So hopefully will be warm for Halloween?

Jeannette, are you biking today??

We're having a quiet relaxing weekend. Did finish the last of 4DS yesterday, and going to do the BB timesaver this week. Will start that today.

Hi Coolers,
Just got back from biking. Did a short ride as the guy whose birthday we were doing a ride for emailed me yesterday to say his wife is in the hospital with bronchitis, so we'd have to cancel. I decided to ride with the normal Sunday group and we had 4 other fasties show up. Would have been a great ride to challenge me today. Too bad I told DH I would ride a short one so I could stack wood. Okay, I'm home now and he's gone uptown so won't see how "dedicated" I am to getting that wood stacked LOL! The Fall Festival last night was really fun, and my cornbread turned out good, though late as I got it started in the dutch oven late for some reason. People had already finished dessert by the time it was done, but it still almost got all eaten up. It was good!!! I just had a little bowl of it.

Yesterday's workout was hmmmm... let me think. Okay, it was 4DS LIS, which is the step and then shoulders, calves and core. I didn't do the calf work though. Then it was wood stacking MAX. I'll go and stack for a couple hours, then want to go to the golf course and practice, then play. This weather won't hold for much longer I'm sure so need to take advantage of it.

Kim, I think the link needs to have a ".com" after picturetrail, that's how I got it to open. Enjoy the nice, quiet day today. My BIL brought over a fire ring so we can start having fires right off the patio to enjoy.

Patricia, too bad your DS wouldn't dress up, but they can be so shy sometimes. Did you get the new furniture? I enjoyed your pictures very much. Your DS is too cute!

Laurie, you are working too hard! You need more time to chat with us. Can't your boss see that?

Gotta run and start stacking.
