I survived! My brother's family of 5 were in town because my nephew had a squash tournament here. The 3 kids and the dog stayed with me in my apartment. The kids are sweet as can be and I adore the pup, but 5 minutes after they arrived the place looked like it was hit by a tornado. I had a great time taking the pup out to romp with other dogs in the parks around here, but everything was muddy, and of course he tracked mud all over the apartment.
Anyway, I survived. Just wanted to tell you that the kids tried the ab routine from Slow & Heavy and the floor work from PLB, and I could not believe it, but they actually had a hard time doing the exercises! These kids are all award-winning athletes in their age groups (9, 12 and 18), and they are in great shape, but none of them had strong enough hamstrings to get through all of Cathe's hamstring raises on the ball, they could barely even do the froggy inner thigh move, and they couldn't hold the planks. It surprised me because I would never have imagined that there was anything physical that I could do at age 48 that they wouldn't be able to do 10 times better. I felt a little bit less like dumpy Aunt Nancy, which was nice.
The 18-year old told me that I was her favorite Aunt. I asked her why and she said because her other aunts are boring, but I'm Cool Aunt Nancy. How bout that???? Or maybe they just know how to get what they want out of me. Anyway, I'm a sucker and I'm lovin it.
