Hi ladies !
I'm sure by the way I have been in and out that you all are wondering about me, huh?
My head was still hurting yesterday so ended up just working around the house. Those types of headaches only get worse if I attempt to exercise. Today I am feeling back to normal and completely thankful I rarely have pain -makes me feel blessed not to have the ongoing pains that some people live with day after day !
That being said - today I am still motivated to work on the house so will probably just run this afternoon since I'll be starting the "X" tomorrow. Need to pull it out and decide how to go about it with a few subs here and there. Can preview the DVD's while on the TM !
Now to introduce myself since between work and my headache I have been pretty non-existent lately . . .
I'm a 50 yr old with 3 grown children, DS - 23, married, one boy and another on the way: DS - 21, still at home and needs to get motivated soon
: DD - 19, out on her own, kinda stumbling but she'll make it as she is a strong young thing ! I work full-time as an HR Manager in a family run business, premdominately we make boxes so when I shop for fruits and veggies I am turning the boxes upside down to see if they are ours !
My hobbies are exercising which I combine weights and cardio (I am enjoying running and want to incorporate that a bit more now), workout usually 6 days a week (except for this past week
). I would love to lift really heavy but due to past sports, am having to modify at times. Shoulders and back need to be babied at times.
DH and I are avid hockey fans. Yippee - NHL starts the end of this week ! We have season tickets to the Sharks and will go to approx 2/3 of the games.
That's me and as Wendy can tell you, I am a follower when it comes to exercising - y'all can enable me faster than you can blink. Did I really commit to doing P90X?
I did order STS and think this will get me prepped for that series. I attempted "X" nearly two years ago but life got in the way so had to drop it and just do whatever I could fit in. Think I got some new Cathe DVD's after that and never went back. But I am ready and eager now.
One last thing . . . I will never be here as early as the rest of you since I am West Coast and by the time I wake up, you are already done with your workouts, posting, eaten your breakfast and many at work already !
So I try to post before work if I can (I typically workout in the AM) or early at work when I am able. If you haven't seen me post, check out the day before as I am typically one of the last posts there.
Glad we combined the two checkins and have come to a common plan . . .
Dee Dee - that workout sounds like fun, especially with a group. I think it is so great that Wii has so many adults at least getting some exercise !
Shirl - good to "see" you again - I am thinking you were part of the Challengers that Gayle started at the beginning of the year? (Please tell me my old brain remembers some things correctly?
). See you got into the KB's too? I got one pretty recently but haven't used it too much yet. May try to work it in with "X".
Wendy - glad to hear you had fun last night even though it was long and you got sore feet ! I love interacting with people and sometimes watching those who have had a few is just too funny as they "let their hair down" and act themselves? When is your HM again?
Angie - LOL at your dream with Cathe. So you ordered STS too? We may have to switch this to X/STS Factor down the line, huh? I'm with you on the cleaning thing today. Since I started yesterday I don't want to stop. And DS who lives here has an interview with the CHP (California Highway Patrol) on Oct. 1st here at the house so thought it might be good to spruce things up a bit. I am sooooo keeping my fingers crossed for him - he is so passionate about that being his career and he is not a very motivated child. I'll do whatever I can to make it happen. Whatcha think, shall I bake cookies !
Will BBL to check to see if anyone else made it here today.
Enjoy your Sunday !
