Morning Peeps!

I got in another early bird work out this morning. I was at the gym at 5:30 this morning to do Itread 21/30 min run intervals. I had a FABULOUS run and am quickly becoming a fan of the pre-dawn work outs.

Joey has off from school today, tomorrow and Monday so my usual schedule is gonna be all screwy for a few days. That's part of the reason I chose to try the early bird run today.

Shirl: A homeschooling mom? Kudos to you. BIG ONES! I could never do that.

Diana: I am considering doing the November rotation next. It will give me an excuse to purchase Pure Strength. Let me know how you are liking it.

Laura: Hope you had fun at the housewarming party last night!

Jacque: So did you find the motivation to do L&G after work?? I wanted to run last night. I even got dressed and everything but ended up not going. I was tired and just didn't feel like trying to push through.

Ang: Oh great. Now I know what I have to look forward to with Joey. Me, drinking CABS in a/c!? NEVER! Shoot, I can't go to a/c without my CABS! In fact, I just picked up 4 of the cutest girly drink coasters for us to use in the room since we are BRINGING CABS WITH US! I also picked up napkins that say "Everyone has to believe in something and I believe I'll have another drink!"

Alrighty babes, I have to feed my boy and get him dressed. He's coming to work with me today.

Be back in a few hours!

Well I Tried !



So I decide to come to the computer BEFORE I workout, was up at 5:30 and lo and behold, Wendy was at the gym EST when I got up PST. Oh well.

Did not do L & G last night - was hungry so went to the computer instead. Ended up staying there until DH came home and wanted to start dinner. Early again! I'm likin' this.

So L & G in a few minutes.

BBL for personals.

Have a fun day Wendy - you and Joey doing anything fun or exciting?

Good Morning Ladies,

I am too tired to w/o this morning. I woke up at 7am and came downstairs to get some coffee, it was terribly weak-yuk. We just opened a new container of coffee and it must be a different blend as it was weak yesterday too.

Kids-I got home at 6:30pm last night just as DH was getting home from picking Jerod up from wrestling practice. It was then I found out Jerod had a choir concert and had to be back at the school by 7pm. AAaack! I think with football, school and wrestling he must've forgotten to tell us about it.

Wendy-My days are a little off on the Nov rotation but I do like it. I wanted to a rotation with the GS w/o's and this one is nice. I like the PS series too but don't reach for them as often. Love your napkins!! I wish I was good with pre-dawn workouts. My rec ctr has a bodypump class at 5:30am that I would love to take. Unfortunately, I'm usually asleep at that hour.

Jacque-Enjoy L&G this morning! It's not one I reach for often but is a nice change of pace.

Angie-sorry about the attitude, that's a teenager for yah!

Laura-The meltdown classes are twice a week. I'm really enjoying them. My downfall is the eating side, I always struggle with that.

I gotta head off to work.

Morning Ladies

One step closer to Friday .. woo hoo

The girls get together went fabulous .. my friend's house is GORGEOUS .. she has done such a good job decorating and the color/paint .. gorgeous!! she is so proud .. when she divorced she never thought she would be able to afford a house on her own .. and now she has a gorgeous home .. she should be proud!!!

Today is the day DH work votes to strike or not .. ... I am really worried .. there are several different ways this could play out .. the only good one for DH and myself is that they accept the contract and do NOT strike!! I hope they are smart enough to realize they stand to loose so much!!! Tensions are high .. and most all of our friends are in the union .. so things have been really tense a lot of raw nerves and feelings out there!!!

Anyway .. till then boss is cooking our safety meal today .. steaks, twice baked potato, salad and dessert OMG I wont be able to move after lunch .. and no lunch w/o b/c we will be eating here .. tonight's class watch out!!!

Wendy .. I wish I had your energy in the morning .. but I just DONT .. LOL!!! WTG on the early w/o!!! has to be a good feeling to have it done and outta the way!!

Heya girls

BF and I went on an hour walk. I used the 10# vest too - I really didn't notice too much of a difference, but we walked at a pretty slow pace. The dog is now sleeping like a baby. I may do a segment of SM too but not too concerned about adding more since it is rest week. The appetite is definitely much less this week.

Wendy - LOL! at the beer saying - I had a T-shirt that said that on it in high school.
Early morning workouts seem like they would be right up your alley. You go girl!

Jacque - I haven't done L&G in a long time either. I do call Cathe names on that one though.

Di - Sounds like a busy school schedule. How's the wrestling thing going so far?
Hope you have a good day at work. Are you back at the old job yet?

Laura - What a horrible situation with DH and your friends. I sure hope it doesn't get nasty. Ug! I hope this economy bounces back soon. It's makin' everyone crazy!
Maybe you should make your boss come to your class after he puts on one of those lunches. Maybe that'd teach him. *lol*
Your hair looks fabo!!! Very nice.
So do ya have pups on the way yet???

*waves to the rest of my X'ers*

I'll check back later...

Hey ladies,

this morning i did a 6am sports conditioning class. it was really good!

wendy- i just love working out early in the a.m. you know my motto "get 'er done"! good job with your run this today. it would be so awesome if we could coordinate our schedules and do an HM next year. keep it in the back of your mind!

jacque- i hope you are able to get L & G done today!

laura- oh no, i am in fear for your class tonight, lol! your lunch sounds so much more yummy then what i had today. i hope all goes with with dh tonight.

angie- do you have cathe's weighted vest? have you tried exercising with it. OMG, i used mine ( i don't have cathe's) just for push ups and thought i would die. made a huge difference.

diana- i believe it was you (faulty memory) that asked. i live in north carolina. not sure i could swing san diego next year. but if me, you and WENDYcould get together for a HM i would be in total glory!!! let me know if you have any other options.

alrighty ladies, gotta run. TTYL..!!

Hey DeeDee - I just bought the vest a couple of days ago at Wally world on clearance for $17. I just love a good bargain....but I digress. So, today was the first day I used it. I'm sure it will make a HUGE difference in the workouts, but I hardly noticed it with walking.

There's NO way I would use it for pushups! I struggle with those as it is....my arms are strong, but my butt is big. LOL! Although, I do need to work on more forearm strength too b/c that tends to give out more quickly than my chest with push ups.

6am class huh? Are you a coffee drinker? I could not imagine getting that motivated in the morning without a cup o' joe.

Hi Girls.

Just wanted to pop in quickly before heading to bed. I ended up feeling good and having energy to burn this afternoon so I got a head start on tomorrow's work outs by doing MM upper body premix. This will leave me with just GS legs floor work as per the rotation but I am adding in a run. Now it can be a longer one since upper body got done today. I am hoping for an hour on the TM tmrw so we'll see...

Heading out late tmrw afternoon for A/C so I'll likely be popping in during the day while I'm washing clothes and packing,etc.

Off to bed with me. I'm tired. I'll catch up with personals tomorrow for sure!

Nighty night peeps!

 

[Sunshine1528]

Popping back in pretty late today. Had a lunch meeting so couldn't play here today.

I did get my L & G done this AM and after shopping tonight, came home and did my Rythmic Step which is tomorrows workout. Silly me, but I thought I might just catch up with Wendy, but NOOOOOOO. she did two workouts today too! LOL! I will probably not be working out on Sat so will finish up my week on Sunday.

Since it is getting late, I'll catch up on personals tomorrow.

Happy evening and Woo Hoo, tomorrow is FRIDAY !
