You sleep- I shop

Just preordered Tracey Staehls THE PARTS SERIES
Her shoulder work is all based on balancing out the shoulder muscles that arent worked as much with other ecercises IE: pushups, curls etc...

Hi Traci,

You're up early just like me! Thanks so much for your order. I'm hoping to ship by the end of the month!

Tracey

 

[wkoutmom]

Good morning. I have been up since 1am, so Legoland should be interesting today. Yesterday I did GS Chest and Tri's and ARX. Now I can't walk and lift my arms. But it hurts soooo good:+ .

Traci - So sorry to hear about your niece. I hope things work out. What a scary thing to go through. Good job on the workout. Have a great day.

Hi to all of the other Xers that follow.

Lea

 

[taprice]

Good Morning Early Birds!

I had a nice run yesterday and didn't have any major aches from running in shoes that are too old Then I did Eion's quickie. It wasn't quite enough, but should hold me until today.

I'm trying to decide between S&H or PUB, then for lower I'm doing SS legs 3x, I think. I know I'm doing yoga.

Traci - I didn't like the Traci S. that I got. The core one is still sitting on the table and has been used once. I gave Debra the other one. It just seemed so disjointed to me. I'll check out the site, but I'm not buying until I get your review.

Debra - Our house used to be a Lego Land. That might be a challenge on just a few hours of sleep, better you than me.

Hi to everyone else.

Tracy

 

[teddy16410]

LeaX
Glad to hear your workouts are REALLY working! So sorry about your lack of sleep! My excuse is lightening + "kids", whats yours???? Watch your step today!

TracyX
I dont blame you at all for not buying more DVDs you may not use! Thats why I swore off any cardio at all but Cathe... They just sit! I am ready to post another batch of give-a-aways soonx(
So why did you run in your old shoes? I thought you just received the new ones.... Be careful with that. BIG workout day for you today! Pump it honey!}(

Deciding on going back to bed or just start some cleaning.... pups are all sound asleep now that storm passed... Wish I could fall asleep like they do!

 

[aschendell]

Good morning dear women! Just need to share that I didn't get up until 9am!!!!!! WooHoo! I LOVE my new mattress! I am actually a little stiff from sleeping so long. I am headed down to a fall festival/craft show...so I will get some walking in this morning and I am sure I will loosen up then. I am planning a session with Eion this afternoon. My legs are sore from willPower and Grace yesterday...my quads were uncomfy all day yesterday, but my hammies are feeling it this morning. We had fun at the fair yesterday. I made the mistake of not eating anything before we got there....I was trying to save calories...and then we got on a ride right after I ate a greasy (but incredibly yummy) gyro! My tummy was never quite the same after that. I will have to adjust my eating plan before we head to the State Fair in a couple of weeks. I am going to the Melting Pot tonight for a friend's bday, so that should be fun....I have never eaten there before since XDH doesn't like that kind of thing. Oh, and my dog ate 2 crickets this morning...they are her new favorite delicacy.

personals...

Lea...Poor girl...sorry you got no sleep! Good luck with the little urchins today. Aren't you glad you started working out again??

Tracy....Good your running shoes helped yesterday. Sounds like you have a pretty grueling workout on tap for today. I am sure you are glad it is the weekend finally. Is FIL with you guys this weekend?

Traci...You crack me up!! Glad you enjoyed shopping this morning while the rest of us were in dreamland...except for Lea, of course! Sorry you had such a tough day yesterday...I am sure your planets will be more aligned today. You've already gotten so much accomplished, it is probably time for a nap! So nice that Tracey emailed you! I love that kind of personal touch. I remember when Cathe answered one of my questions on her forum...it was when I was first really getting into her videos..and I was sooooo excited. I still have a copy of it! Her personal attention just made me want to workout more.

Cheryl...Sounds like you had a good and busy trip! Glad you are home safe and sound.

Nicole...More {{{{hugs}}}} and prayers coming your families way. Take it easy on your back!!!!!! Hope the pumpkin patch was fun....I love those kind of outings.

Teddygirl....Hope you are having fun with Ted this weekend!

Wendy...Good you are finally feeling a bit better...Have fun on your trip this weekend.

Sandra...Happy Thanksgiving! Do you guys eat all of the same things we eat...turkey, dressing, sweet potatoes, pumpkin pies? Hope you are feeling back to your normal perky self this morning. Just watch "Little Miss Sunshine"....that will make you laugh. I heard "Superfreak" over a restaurant's stereo system the other day and just cracked up while I was eating alone. People probably thought that I was just out from the mental ward.

Okay...ladies...gotta get ready to head out with DD and my mom...Have a fun Saturday! Hi to everyone I missed...Caught up with most of you yesterday...

Oh I got it mixed up. I should have known that Debra, our resident napper wouldn't have been up early! No, she was dreamily sleeping on her new matress.

Lea - Sorry about the sleep or lack thereof.

Traci - You should be able to get a lot done today, if you don't crash and burn early That is a good deal for the new Tracey S. though; 15.00 for 3 workouts, I was almost tempted.

I'm busy doing a little of this, a little of that, and a whole lot of nothing. Sure feels good though.

Morning Xers,

Rotation: LGI8 P90X Recovery
Workout: Core Syn (Done)

Got to sleep in a little later today. Not by much. The body is set to get up at 5am, so I was up at 6:30. Not so bad. Got Core Syn done, walked the dog, feed the family, put dishes in DW. DH and I are going to head to the store to get some Halloween candy. Need to get that out of the way before there is no more left. I usually wait until the last minute. But when on sale go to the sale.

Traci, Wow on the cardio your client was doing. I would be spent on that amount also. I have only one of Tracey S DVD's and that is the KB. I see in her next series that she is going to make another one. I probably will get that. Glad your pooches are sleeping, right now Cami has been looking out our front window all morning. She is keeping her eye on those pesky squirrels. :7 :7

Lea, Enjoy the world of Lego Land. My DH still plays with Lego's. :7 My big kid, but then can you blame hime having all women in the family. My oldest DD loves them too.

Tracy, We are having really warm weather also. Glad you enjoyed your run.

Debra, You will have to let me know how the Melting Pot is. We have one of those in this area, but I can't see that it would be something that I would go to often.

Have a great day!

Laurie

Yoga Magically Hips

Oh my it's chilly here this morning! The boys are wrapped up in blankets muttering about how cold it is. The rest of the week it's supposed to be 80 but last night was a bit chilly.

I don't know how flexible my hips will be in this cold but I'll give it a try.

The pumpkin patch was so fun yesterday and the boys slept really well last night because of it They have a hayride, a cotton seed sledding hill, animals, a hay maze, a huge play fort area and a toddler area. So much to do and they are always excited.

DG was totally out last night when we went to see her and the family from out of town. Her 88 year old brother flew down with his daughter and my DG daughter came with a couple of my DG's niece's. They are such a close family and it is great to see them all make an effort to come see her before she passes away and not just at the funeral. My MIL cousin is an ER doctor so he is helping with her sedation at night so she doesn't become agitated. I hope to see her during the day today while she's awake and a bit more lucid.

Traci-X, How is the weekend alone? Are you pampering yourself? Sounds like those legs are getting used to all the attention Thanks for the {{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}} ! Here's some {{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}} back for your sister and her DD.

DebraX, Glad you are getting good sleep on your new mattress It probably helps that the stress of XDH not coming into town has been postponed. Enjoy the fall festival, wish I could come too

TracyX, Only one more class to go and you're free I would go with PUB since Cathe should start shipping the new series in a week or so. Thanks for the cyber YELL! I am a bit sore today from yesterday's workout and I won't be able to make it to the chiro until a week from now because he's going on vacation Have fun doing a whole lotta nothin'

LeaX, Have fun at LegoLand!

WendyX, Are you feeling better today? The clock is ticking on the big trip so get the yuck out now I was watching "Have Fork Will Travel" on Food TV and it was in Thailand. He was hilarious and having so much fun. You should check and see if there is a rerun of it. Is your car fixed?

SandraX, Is your long weekend this weekend or another? I am ready for that time of year that's for sure! Tracy is trying to convince me I need Shiva and I'm sure you would agree. Do you think Fluid Power is the one to get too? Are your parents there this weekend? I bet they'll enjoy the cake:9

LaurieXX, Have fun candy shopping! I have very purposefully kept that out of the house. It has really helped with my late night sugar cravings. Of course, my DH isn't to keen on the whole idea We never get trick-or-treaters where we are so no worries there. Congrats on the weight loss!

JeanetteX, Are you at your grandma's or riding your bike? How is that elbow doing?

Carol, Thanks for the encouraging words. Glad school is going along. The Bible is a good history book that's for sure

Hi Annointed, How's Ted doing? Any fun plans for the weekend?

Sorry that's all I can get out right now. I have to clean and prepare chili and carrot cake for a friend's football party. I promised long ago and now that grandma is doing so badly I may not be able to go

Youngest DS is beating on my arm which means, "Get off the computer"!!!!!!!!!!!

[font face="arial narrow"]~~~~~~~~~Happy Sat Afternoon!~~~~~~~~~~~~[/font/ arial narrow]


Have taken 2 2 hour naps and gotten half the main areas vacuumed and on last load of laundry… Highly productive day albeit at a slow pace! Tested the lawnmower just to see if little repair elves came by last night to fix- nope!
~~~~~~
[/font/ arial narrow]

Ms Debra X!!! How totally cool you are in love with your new bed! Nothing like sleeping in especially when stress levels are high! Tomorrows the big day isn’t it? I am sending you and DD all sorts of warm fuzzys! So is this Willpower & Grace a yoga DVD? Anything that gives YOU major DOMS sounds good to me! Can ya tell I’m in a spending mood? Have a fantastic evening!

Ms Tracy X!!! LOL on switcher-oo of names! We all followed your logic so no sweat! Some days I swear I feel like my mother – the dots just don’t seem to connect! Hope you are taking a few rests between your marathon workouts today!

Ms Laurie XX !!! So nice to see you on weekends! How do you handle Halloween candy in house? We just don’t buy it at all- the dogs go bananas when the kiddies come by so we are the old scrooge’s of the block- LIGHTS OUT! Even as a kid I disliked the whole Halloween thing and would never go trick or treating~ Do ya think I need to see what the deep rooted hostility is about??? ~ Glad Cami is a great watchdog- well at least in the LITERAL sense! Sandy has always been intrigued with squirrels- watches them for hours on end.

Ms Nicole X!!! cant believe we got to see you today! Big hugs continuing~ WOW on the entire family coming together… I think that’s the coolest thing ever. I do hope you all get some peace from pending these final days with gramma.


Huggers to all who may follow - & to those who dont! :7

Hi all,

PUB is done and I struggled on that one today. I guess I haven't done endurance with heavier weights lately and WOW! Sweat was dripping off of me on the bicep pyramid, which I absolutely hate and has a huge dread factor for me. Then I did SS, lower 3x, but didn't do the low ends, so that is probably like doing it 2 times. Those low ends were killing me today. Maybe it was because of the run yesterday. Then I did 100 walking lunges with 12 lb dbs. I hope I'm not getting sick. I'm doing some yoga later.

I just finished cleaning the bedroom. It was SOOOOO dusty. I've been ignoring cleaning for a while now.

Laurie - Sleeping in for me is about 6:30 too. Sometimes earlier than that. Enjoy the time as a taxi. It goes by quick. It's supposed to be 90 here tomorrow and Monday. It should be no higher than 70.

Nicole- I hope things go OK with GM. Doesn't sound like a happy ending is in store. Take care of that back. DH has had FIL almost every weekend for the past few months. He really wasn't happy about it today. It's like baby sitting, even though he is doing much better.

Traci - I'm not moving at any record pace here either, but I have gotten a few things done. By the way, how is the shoulder? DH likes to hunt? What do you do when he's hunting? Is that somewhere you go? I'm surprised that mowing the grass wouldn't irritate the shoulder.

Later guys,

Tracy

 

[aschendell]

Hi all...back to say hello before I head upstairs to spend a little quality time with Eion. DD just headed to my mom's house to spend the night, so I am a free adult this evening. We had fun at the fall festival today...lots of bad food choices again...but at least there weren't any rides!

Tracy...PUB is always a tough one for me...especially the bis and chest. I am sure you killed lots of dust bunnies in your bedroom today. I would have been cleaning if XDH had still been coming...but since he is a no show, I decided the bunnies could live another day. It is still crazy hot here too...I can't wait until it is actually fall!

Traci...I even took an hour and a half nap in my mattress this afternoon....obviously catching up a bit. Although I probably won't sleep much tonight. willPower and Grace is sort of a mish mosh of everything...there is a 10 minute warm up which has some pretty dynamic moves in it...and then onto 20 minutes of cardio which is some squats and lunges and plyo moves and then onto 10 minutes of stretching which is kind of yoga like then 20 minutes of core which uses lots of stabilization moves all at a very slow pace. You can watch the preview on Collage. I am here to enable your shopping habits. Glad you got those nappers in...and those darn elves must be off playing with my fairies and not getting any of our chores done!

Nicole....Glad the family is rallying around GM...I know the best thing I ever did was drive down to see my dad before he died...He may not have known I was there, but I knew I was and can take that with me. My half siblings did not come to see him before he died and I wonder how they feel about that now. Hope you had a good time with Eion today...He is good at helping me center. Wish it was chilly here...It is supposed to be 90 here tomorrow. Where is fall??

Laurie...I'll let you know about the Melting Pot...just sounds like a fun place to go for my friend's bday. Polly was chasing squirrels through the window yesterday...She goes nuts! Hope DD has fun at here dance tonight!

Okay...off to feel the nectar...kisses to all the missing Xers!
