Good evening,
Oh my, I am late, late, late tonite. DH and I took the dogs out after work and headed for the woods. I took my chair, Snapple diet ice tea and a Collage magazine and Champion sportswear catalog and enjoyed the sunshine, basking like a lizard. DH took his usual hike out in the woods looking for future firewood trees, with dogs in tow. All of us love these outings and they are really only minutes from our little town. We also scoped out a possible camping spot for Memorial Day weekend. I will be combining the camping trip with my first century bike ride of the year with a couple of girlfriends (one of who is doing her very first century).
Sandra, now you've got me curious about HCE, which I never was keen on getting before. Hmmmm.... So glad your appointment at the dentist was good and sounds like VERY good. I'm one of those that has been going to dentists for years with regular cleanings, but the past few years I've had a few receding gum spots that if the hygienist hits with a tool, sends me thru the roof. Makes me very gun shy and tense. I end up holding both of my hands together and never really relaxing when she's working on that one side. Hope the crown goes well. Is it a front tooth? I'm with WendyX, now we have to do Kegels? I know they are good for me, but I think my little brain is so full of stuff that if I learn something new, something else has to go. I've got to do some reading on Landis. I already thought the B samples were positive. Must be something new. I wish they'd just get this thing over with. A couple friends of mine were just in the San Francisco area a couple weeks ago at a Cycle Ops training thing. Floyd was there and they were measuring the watts of power that he could put out. My ironman friend was flat amazed at his power and concentration. It was unreal. Isn't Eoin great? Love that DVD, but I love Shiva too. Her voice is so calming. I need to see what else she has. Casino Royale, yep, a guy's body hasn't attracted me in ages like Daniel Craig's did. My heartrate just went up a few bpm.
Amy, thanks so much for posting your pictures. I posted mine and you do feel like you are laying it all out there. LOL re: your morning face! I felt Legs & Back every single week of P90X. Keep up the good work.
Nicole, hope PlyoX was good for you. Nice to be able to concentrate on a workout without worrying about interruptions. I like Squeeze, it's so different from anything else I have. I like Tracey as an instructor too.
Debra, oooh, pampering with the wax and pedicure. I get my hair done next week and looking forward to it. I have the ugliest toes, actually almost everyone in our family has short stubby toes. Short toes, short legs, short tempers (just kidding). Glad you enjoyed your time. I'll have to look up the link to Squeeze for you. My cleaning appointments aren't that relaxing either. Hope you get thru all right. Do you hold both your hands together in your lap? I always wonder if the hygienist can see how nervous I am because my hands are held together.
WendyX, I like Squeeze because it's so different than anything else I have and I like how it really makes me burn with the tiny moves. It definitely has a place in my DVD library.
Katie, glad you enjoyed and FELT KenpoX more. I got that way too, the more I did it, the more I concentrated on the moves and contracting my abs. Weighted gloves helped too.
Wendy, are you doing YogaX with your DH right now? Hope you enjoy it, I never gave it much of a chance, sorry to say. You guys are way more dedicated than I was.
Got to go, DH is here in the room listening to Malt Shop Memories. He loves that era of music. "Oh baaaabeeee, do you want to dance?"
Jeanette
I sweat a lot and pray it's making a difference! I guess we'll see in 90 days.
