Good Morning!

I didn't get a chance to check back in yesterday so I am going to start the thread and read what I missed yesterday!

BB in a bit!

Lori:)
 
Good Morning Ladies:)

happy halloween girls!

Im thinking that today will be a stretch or rest day! Im so sore that working out will be uncomfortable! I can't beleive my chest is still sore from mondays workout:-o. Im excited for my little trick-or-treaters tonight, Im going to take loads of pics so I will post some here!

you guys remember last year when I had to put the kids left-over candy in my DH's truck so I wouldn't eat it,LOL!

Lori-what workout ya doing today?

Hey to Cheryl,Belinda,Lainie and Carrie!
 
O.K.....

Amelia, I can't beleive DH's company cut back on Christmas bonuses! Atleast they gave you the heads up, unlike...oh whats the name of that Christmas movie where the guy is going to buy a swimming pool out of his bonus but all he got was a jello membership? Do you know what one Im talking about? We watch it every year! LOL

Carrie, There could be alot of comparing going on at babygroup if you let it. Thats like this town actutally, if you want to get caught up in the "keep up with the jone'es"...it would be no trouble. Alot of people around here get something just cause someone else as it. I use to go to 2 baby groups but in one group most of the babies were alot older so I stopped going.I went a little while to the other baby group and one of the moms kept wanting me to look at her baby who was walking around the furniture ( our babies were born the same day) But you learn not to compare...and you also learn that while someone elses baby might be doing something...your baby is doing something else that they are not. Eventually, they will all be at the same level and no ones baby is THAT ahead of the game. The only thing that irritates me is that my friend keeps giving me her baby boy clothes for storage. DS is 9 weeks older then her baby but they are about the same size. Most of the stuff she is giving me is crap and she thinks that he can fit into it now. While its possible that he could fit into some of it, its not worth keeping for a couple of weeks. I already told her not to give me anymore clothes (it just seems like I am the closet good will, instead of her going uptown,she just dumps her garbage here!) anyway...I end up going through it, I keep a couple peices and the rest gets donated. I hope she never comes looking for it!

Belinda, I bet you are still unpacking!!! hehe

Laine, I hope you have more energy today. I hate feeling tired, especially when you just wake up! LOL It takes me all day to get moving when I am like that.

Cheryl, I haven't even thought about the Nov rotation but Im willing to bet the 4DS will be involved so I won't be able to do it anyway. I think I might just ask for them from santa??? Maybe! I will see how long I can hold off.

I didn't workout at all yesterday and I ate alot of crap!:eek: When I was at my friends house, she was saying she had to make some things for the kids to take to school and preschool and she didn't know where she was going to find the time. I offered to make her some cupcakes cause I had planned to stay in all afternoon. So thats what I did. I cleaned some of my house , and made 48 cupcakes. In the meantime, all I did while I was in the kitchen was stuff things in my face so I skipped supper and am hoping to get a good run in today!
Also, the ground is covered in that stupid white stuff:) Makes me want to do some christmas shopping. I may sit down in a little while with my cup of java and skim through the catalouge!

Lori:)
 
Lori...I Love Christmas Vacation,we too watch it every year! along with A Christmas Story and The Wizard of Oz,they have become a christmas tradition around here! I also love all the christmas cartoons that come on for the kids like rodolph the red nose reindeer and frosty the snowman!
 
Good Morning Happy Halloween!

So yesterday, I ended up going for a 56 min walk with my SIL, and then we did CM#2. It was just so nice, I figured, why not enjoy the weather. I am glad we did. Today is really windy, and alot cooler (40degrees). I figure there is plenty of time to do stuff in side. Plus, my SIL said she ordered P90x! I am so excited. She is planning a trip to Mex in Feb, so she wants to do the X for that, Yay!

Today should be busy, I will try to post a pic of Ryan in his Chili Pepper costume. I have to run him around different relatives and show him off. Workout today needs to be full body cardio and weights. I stepped on the scale today and I have gained a full 3 lbs since sunday. Ridiculous! Today super clean eating --no candy! I think LIC.

Lori--You made 48 cupcakes? Wow-that is really nice! Good job. Ugh, I so know the feeling. I love to cook, but when I do, I am always 'testing' everything. Taking a small bite here and there. Well, they add up, and then you feel like crap. Hope you get that long run in today.

Cheryl--good job on the run yesterday! Do you run marathons or races? How often do you run/week?

Belinda--You are doing great with the unpacking and still fitting in your workouts! Good job--how is the organizing going? I know it's alot of work, but now you have everything where you want it.

Lainie--Ewan feeling better? Do your kids like wearing their costumes? We are handing out MM's and Fruit Rollups tonight. What's your plan today?

Amelia--any leads on the job search? What are your plans today? Have a good one!

Hi, everyone! I'm dragging this morning and will probably end up taking today as my rest day. Just not feelin' it. Looking forward to seeing Cathe's November rotation.

Lori - Yes, I remember Chevy Chase's Christmas vacation. A funny classic. Sounds like you had fun yesterday and you deserve a treat day now and then. Hope you get that nice run in today.

Yes, you may have to break down and order the new series!

Lainie, good luck at the Dr.!!! Hope Ewan enjoys his school day.

Amelia, rest sounds fun today, eh? I am STILL feeling my LB a little from Sunday's KB/LB.

Belinda, yayy that your bed has arrived! Now your home is complete and you can really get settled. I didn't realize they have Halloween in Germany? Or are you just getting the treats for your own "kids"? At any rate, have a nice workout and a nice day.

Carrie, I have run 15 marathons but these days am only running 2-3 days a week and no longer than 1/2 marathons. I'm enjoying cross training much more.

Have a great day, everyone!

Cheryl
 
Well, the doctor said my x-rays look great, so at least there's no big damage done, but he said I'll need physical therapy since this has bothered me so long. And of course, I got the "If you'd come to us sooner it would be easier" spiel. I guess I should be more of a hypochondriac or something. So I called the physical therapy and the earliest I can get in is Nov. 12. So I guess I'll just keep doing what I'm doing for the time being. The doc also gave me a prescription for pain relief so maybe that will help.

Ewan was able to go to school this morning and he did fine. I guess he was feeling well enough--I was really glad I didn't have to take him with me to my appointment.

Amelia, you're doing some BBC this week, too, right? I'm also still sore from Monday's workout (BBC abs/arms). Today I plan to do the Chest & Abs one, but first I'm going to try out Amy Bento's new step workout.

Lori, one day of eating crap is not going to ruin you when you're normally so good. :)

Belinda, so glad you got your last shipment! I remember what it was like waiting on that stuff when we moved here. Also, we had to order living room furniture when we moved here. We moved in Sept and the couches came in Nov--way too long without a couch!

Cheryl, yes I want to see Cathe's November Rotation soon! I still haven't done any rotations except the intermediate one but I'm always eager to check them out and consider doing them.

Carrie, make sure you drink a lot of water. That 3 lbs could just be water gain or something. My boys love their costumes. Ewan got to wear his to nursery school today and it was hard to get him to take it off before his lunch and nap. Isaac didn't get to wear it to school but he's excited about trick-or-treating. I'm handing out Reese's peanut butter cups--which is really bad because it's my favorite. Why do I buy my favorite? I should have got something less tempting. I got this paper sent home from isaac's school yesterday with ideas for non-candy treats (like little party favor playdough, little toys, whatever). Why didn't they send that home a week or more ago? It's a little late to give me Halloween advice the day before!

Next year maybe I'll do the toy thing, I think.
