AMY~
No wonder you didnt check in woman! Is that the SAME hospital you work at? I'd be appalled! There must be some e-room protocol...Once when I was having my fibroid issues I had to go to emergency.. I told them I was scheduled for surgery in a week ... My ob told me that all they did was check me for STD's and give me pain meds.... She said SOP is that all female abdominal pain is e-room treated as STD! I was appalled and pretty pi**ed off! What if something had ruptured! ANYWAY- just goes to show you that we have strayed from real healthcare. I am so sorry that you & Dave had to go thru all that. {{{{{{{{{huggers}}}}}}}}
Jeanette~
Super busy day for you again- take a breather today! Glad you got so much accomplished! ~:+ the pink DB's - my 3's thru 9's are all flourescent colors... LOVE how pretty they make my w/o room! ~:7 on 4DS arriving!! Cant wait to haer which you'll be doing first!

Well just look at the skinny size "1" loving, forgiving self of yours! What a day you had! to be skinny and holy all at the same time? YES - you are blessed!
~ Your post absolutely had me in stitches about your subject matter for the kids at church. I must say life is a series of
"No way Ray's" What will we do without our resident humourist?
Debra~
I LOVED the 4DS Tri work... I wish I could have attempted all of the moves but all in good time...matter of fact my arms and calves are more DOM-Y today than Monday.~ Do you see Chiropractors? My DH swears by them when his back goes out about every 4 month. Some people dont believe in them but I see his pain relieved after 2 days. ~ :+ on critters! Ya know St Francis of Assisi had the same issue;-) ~ ya gonna share about this "friend"... or are ya haring on a need to know basis? :*
Tracy~

PHASE 3????? HIGH 5
~ LOL on "performing" better with audience- MEEEE TOOOOO! ~Thanks for the kind words... I can say that the group here makes me want to be a better person in all facets of life. I read other check-in posts once in a blue moon and they just dont have the same synergy-LUV our group :* My Dh & I are opposites as well and I do find that we are both SLOWLY becoming more balanced... made for some interesting fireworks in "discussions" tho!
}( ~ On your certification/PT Questions: I was only working about 6 hours a day (volunteer work) while I was in Study mode. The thing I found is that the greater base of your overall fitness/physiological knowledge the less study time there is. For me it was the medical names /anatomy that took me a very long time to learn (& created stress) all the other parts of it flowed easier. I did 50% of my studying in early AM hours and 50% on our bay weekends while Wendell was out fishing & I had pure peace & quiet. - AFPA allowed 3 month so that was actually plenty of time- I did it even with MANY days of procrastination vs study time.
I intentionally made (& still am keeping) a NO GOALS for the business end. My primary objective was to do something I loved (my hobby) using god-given talents that were marketable IF I ever found I HAD to go back to work - also needed it to be versatile to any part of the country as life is uncertain. The actual business has developed more from a lets do a few marketing things (not expensive at all) and see what happens. ~ I have been a Corporate Americal Type A junkie since I was 17 and taken under the wings of the male dominated industry... I wanted to avoid the HIGHS I got from 60 hr weeks and head-spinning paychecks... Its adrug to me that took 4 years to detox from- there was no way I was going near it again at this point in my life/marriage. ~ Arent ya glad you asked?:7
TeddyGirl~
Still hoping news on car is easy on the pocketbook! You deserve a break! :* I have Slo Mo on order too! It does look good and Amy is always creative with exercises. :+ Cant believe you mentioned wigs! I have ben thinking that if I ever have so much $$ I just dont know what to do with - I want WIGS! I want short.long, mid and in all colors & styles! I'd LOVE THAT! :7
Laurie~:+ on DD & Dance! THE LOOK just wasnt enough eh? Where are your F&S words? LOL ~ I just crack up with the entire States DMV/DPS depts! I want o know which top bozo we elected to be in charge? Talk about a dept DESIGNED to infuriate normal folks! Thank goodness I only have to go once every 10 years (otherwise its via mail).
I think thats it ladies... Cheryl - MISS YOU, Sandra - I SEE YOU PEEKING!, Lea - Feel better soon, Nicole- again, we are all puling for you, Carol - hope you are well..... I hope I didnt mis any Xer... May today be peaceful to all!
