Hello you lovely ladies....

Hope you are all having good evenings!

I have Sh+Arms tomorrow...My fave!! And also the last time during this rotation...This is one I will definitely use again as a compliment to Cathe. I will also do ARX...which I like a lot better than I used too! I was an incredibly bad girl tonight at dinner..DD and I went to Johnny Rockets...and had a burger with fries and ORings...Gasp!!!! Okay...promise to do better tomorrow! It was certainly yummy, though. My other guilty pleasure is "Grey's Anatomy"...I don't know if any of you watch that (besides Traci, who is usually sleeping by then!)....but surely they can't kill Meredith since the show is named after her!!

Okay..On to other things...

Jeanette...Hope your dad is doing better...Thinking of you!

Lea..Hope you had fun cleaning (ha ha)...and I guess you caught the painting bug from Jeanette!

Traci..Good luck with adding pilates in...Hope it helps!

Alright ladies...I won't check in until late tomorrow since DD's teacher asked me to help out in her class....I'll be with tons of 3,4,5 and 6 year olds tomorrow!! Hopefully I'll be able to keep them out of the soap!

Good evening ladies,

So late, but thought I'd post a little. Had a bike club meeting tonite, picked up a few things at the grocery store, ran up to the hospital to visit my Dad and then checked in on my Mom on the way home. So it's late now, but thought I'd try some personals.

First off, the sourdough pancakes were absolutely WONDERFUL! We had a turnout of around 50 people I think. Lots of great breakfast foods. They got me a vase of beautiful flowers and a card. Also got a Starbucks card and a card from another guy friend. It was a very nice day today. I'm enjoying my last days in the department.

Traci, thanks for the congrats on my new job. Actually, it's not a pay increase, just different department, but will give me better experience toward advancement, which I'd like to do once more before retirement. Yep, will still get to see prison guys around but not so much as before, which is A-OK with me. The inmates that work in the new office are low level security inmates, and do typing and such. Carbs in the morning have worked out really well for me. Come to think of it, this morning I ate about a week's worth of carbs (but it sure was good). No cake today but definitely didn't need any more indulgences (though I had a few Dove dark chocolates).

Debra, my visit tonite with my Dad was good. He looked a little better, but I could hear him wheezing and breathing quickly. He has COPD and has blisters on his lungs right now. I'm thinking they will keep him for a while longer. How was PlyoX this morning? Such a picture in my mind of your DD and her friend and their antics. What a mess that was! What is a Johnny Rockets? Never heard of it. Hope you bring it good on Shoulders & Arms tomorrow. That is a great workout. I'm starting to miss them already (sniff) and I'm not even done yet.

Lea, oh my gosh! I can't think of much more painful things than banging my feet/toes. In fact, I can't even stand the dog to step on my feet they are soooo sensitive on the tops. Sorry about the car problems. I need to take one of our pickups in to the shop as the lights won't come on. DH says switch is broken. Yep, you're right, we did have sourdough pancakes at work not long ago. They were just as good this time too. The new job I'm going to doesn't have potlucks/breakfasts very often at all, but that's okay. Hey, you're painting too! I'm not looking forward to doing the kitchen at all. I have some caulking that needs to be done in their first. I'm procrastinating again.

Sandra, the scrapple that was at the breakfast, as near as I could figure was like a cornmeal loaf mixed with sausage and then fried. I had a little and it was okay, not good, just okay. Cardio Coach #5 was wonderful last night. I'm looking forward to trying CC#6 too as I've never done that one before. I'm liking the lowered zones better. Think I had them WAY too high and it was a struggle to even get near my Level 4 zone. How is your cold? Hope you are not down for the count. Were you able to do YogaX today? Sending out good vibes to you.

Tracy, I too have contemplated the calendar thing for DH, laughing because you and I sound soooo alike! Been 27 years for us. I kept waiting for this great late life onset of libido (you know, the sexy older women thing) but it never happened. Think I peaked at the ripe old age of 21 LOL! I have no complaints, though DH would have some. You are getting sooo good at mish moshing workouts. I hope to start doing that soon. I get bored doing a long cardio session like Lowmax or Imax2. I like 2 separate shorter workouts, helps with the boredom factor. I've heard good things about the Tracy S ab workout too. Think from Lorajc on the Hardcore thread. She reviews lots and lots of workouts.

I really need to get to bed now,

See y'all in the morning (thought I could say y'all as I had Scrapple this morning) LOL!

Jeanette
