X'ers ~Wistful Wednesday~

Nicole - Thank goodness you and your family are safe. I hope that the fires end soon so that your brothers can get some well deserved rest. Thank you for updating us.

Lea
 
Nicole+++++ it's such a relief to know you are okay. I will keep your brothers in my thoughts.

Keep strong and sending calming vibes and hugs your way.:)
 
Sandra - How sweet thank you. No, I am out of fire range. Just the smoke and ashes are drifting our way. But I will take that. Thank you for your concern. Have fun cleaning.

Lea
 
Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well today....So glad to hear from Nicole and know that she and family are alive and well!! I had fun at my yoga class this morning. Lots of shoulder stretches today...also he helped us really get into Warrior I properly. If you do it right, which I have apparently not been doing, it is actually one of the hardest standing poses in yoga. Or at least that is what my yoga guru says!

Speaking of yoga gurus, I received a new Eoin workout today. It is called "Pure and Simple Yoga," and I found it on his website. I won't be able to try it out until Friday, but I will let you know how it goes. There is a 50 minute details section which to help with alignment and poses. I am looking forward to hear what Eoin has to say in that section.

No appointment with my attorney today....got pushed back to tomorrow...which is actually better for me anyway. Still no takers in the telling of the XDH???

....personals.....

.......Nicole.....Nothing more to say than {{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}} Keep in touch when you can.

........Swifty......Aren't you chatty today! Glad you seem to be pretty much healed today. I am going to have to take 2 anatomy/physiology classes as prerequisites to get into the physical therapist assistant program. I'm a bit scared! You can add links to your profile by just adding the URL onto your signature line. Good luck with MIL on Sunday...I guess it's good I only have to talk to mine a few times a year. Look at you with all your clean eating! My DD's school has a really nice salad bar for the parents and teachers to eat at for lunch. They also usually have some pretty healthy choices for the kids with a few chicken nuggets and pizzas thrown in sometimes.

....Jeanette...Stay away from all of those sick people at work...Spray your area down with Lysol at all opportunities! There's a lot to be said for good ole country boys...My "friend" is very laid back and pleasant all the time...and treats me with a lot of respect. All good things...and VERY different from XDH! Sorry you're feeling sluggish...I have had the same feeling after a couple of weeks of really poor eating habits. I am trying to ease my way back into more healthy choices! Mine goes straight to my tummy pooch, too.

...Laurie...Waving as you busily fly by...I vote for Bryan!

....Sandra.....Glad to see your smiling face. I am sure you enjoyed the time with your parents. I bet they just love seeing your girls! Check back after you get that house spic and span! Enjoy that nap, too. I truly believe in the power nap's restorative powers!

....Lea...Waving again as you cruise on by!

....Traci...I am hoping you can tutor me on my anatomy/physiolgy classes that I will start taking in January....I'm scared!

Think that catches me up again for now...I may bbl this evening to see who is around. I have decided not to do chest today. But I a for sure going to do KB07 tomorrow and include the leg portion of that workout...then I can spend some quality time with Eoin, the blissologist, on Friday. Also have to take the kitty to the vet tomorrow for her IBS and still no decision about Mr. Bunny yet...

Kisses and hugs to all....

Hi all,

1/2 personals now, 1/2 when I finish my workout.

Nicole --Glad to hear you are OK. Thanks for letting us know.

Lea - Glad you stopped by. Glad you are out of the fire's path. I'm doing the X again once the new dvds come out. Maybe we can time it together.

Sandra - I'd was beginning to think you dropped off of the face of the earth. I'd forgotten you had company. I hope you all had a nice time.

TG - Sorry about the hormonal roller coaster. Mine still aren't quite back to normal. I know better than to go off of the oils. I'm hoping tomorrow brings some sanity.

Off to workout. I really don't feel like it, but since I missed yesterday and have to miss tomorrow, I've got to. Hopefully it will be one of those surprise days.

Tracy

Hi all,

I did not feel well at work and that was reflected in my workout:( I probably should have just stopped, but I didn't.


Swifty - They were talking about getting me a rack for the dbs, but it was over the spending limit. I guess they'll have to sit on the floor. I don't care I'm just happy to have them.


Debra - Since you have soooo much time on your hands, can you make a list of TH words too? I do wish tomorrow was Friday, but no such luck.

Tracy
 
Tracy...Look back on yesterday's (or was in Monday?) post...I have the th words mixed with the t words...Sorry you aren't feeling your best. Hope you are not coming down with something! Kisses! But not too close if you are getting sick...LOL!

Hi again,

Debra - I don't know how I missed those words! Did I read that you are dating? How does that feel after all that time being off of the dating circuit. I know so many people who are remarried. I don't think I'll ever remarry if this falls apart. It's just too much work. Dogs are much easier.

Jeanette - We went to Morton's Steak House. Of course I don't eat steak, so I got crab cakes which were good. I don't know if it is the wet weather, it is finally raining here today, or the food, but DH, GF, and I all felt sick today. We don't eat out much and I'm just not used to the amount of salt they put in the food. We probably should be just about to the end of biking season here too. It is getting dark so early, plus we should have some colder weather.

Traci - Did you manage to get in a workout or did the early morning get the best of you?

Amy - Sorry about DH. I hate to say this, but I'm almost to the point where I believe there are more poor doctors and health care facilities than good ones.

Wendy - You sound a little calmer. Are the hormones leveling out? You did have a wild week.

I'm going to bed early and hoping that I wake up feeling better. I haven't had this little energy in a long time.

Tracy
 
Good Evening Chatty Xers!!!!:)

My friend got stuck in a traffic mess and decided to cancel the visit. Didn't mean I got much more done between my sister and mother calling. The excitement has waned and reality has set in full force. Ignorance truly is bliss! The more I read about Thailand, the more I don't really want to spend 2 months in a 3rd world country!!! I know that sounds snobby.:p But, I enjoy my DDCoffee, real chocolate, bread, toilet paper, real bed off the floor, and malaria & dengue free country! Does that make me a bad person?;(

To cheer me up, Phil didn't complain when I told him we needed to exchange one of the luggage pieces for the correct color. It didn't even bother him to go on a purse hunt. I ended up having to order the purse online tonight since Macys and Fossil didn't have any in stock. I can put the purse in the front and be hands free without worry of pocket pickers carrying small razor blades ready to slash open fabric or leather. Here is the perfect purse for shopping crowded, open air, street markets in a 3rd world country:

http://www1.macys.com/catalog/produ...TRA_PARAMETER=BAG&PseudoCat=ba-xx-xx-xx.index

You'll have to copy and paste that never ending web address. I got one in a practical black, even though I lusted after the brown one. Even thought about buying one of each. But, that would be wrong.

Time for personals!!!! Okay! You ladies have my work cut out for me tonight!!!

Amy-X: Who are you and what did you do with my Amy? }( ;) I hate when I post in the wrong spot too. Don't worry, I see it among your 6 posts! LOL You are too cute! Agreed, Kenpo is like a fine wine! I have an email Nicole sent me detailing how to post pictures in our posts. I'll forward it to you. It's been raining here on and off all day. I haven't taken a peek at the forecast. At least the weather should be nice for your zoo outing! Hopefully, your MIL will enjoy the crisp fall air. If not, you could always "accidentally" lose her. No! Repeat after me, "Do NOT think WWWD!!!!!"}( Keep this healthy cooking going and you could start your own cookbook soon! LOL on your sharing mood!!!! I'm so HAPPY for you! Wondered if the 2nd fall knocked your body back together? Strange, but don't question why! Just enjoy your pain free forearm!!!! You should ask dh to get out a large enough loan to install aerobic floors like the ones in Cathe's gym. Oooo! Resisting. the. urge. to. be. jealous.:+

Nicole-X: Thank goodness you are safe!!!! I'll be praying for continued safety for you and your brothers!!!!

Debra-X: Cute Ms.Meez!!! I know what you mean about Warrior 1!!!! Remember telling y'all about my 1st power yoga class-- when the instructor corrected my form. That was one of them!!! OUCH! My upper back felt it the next day!!! Ooooo! You must give us a review of your new Eoin. I plan on downloading his MP3 workouts next week in preparation for my 3rd world adventures. Do you really have to tell XDH about the lawyer? Can't he find out when he's served papers?:eek: :7 Just a thought. What are the implications from having a scarred bladder? Sounds painful!!! Glad to hear your back is feeling better. I got the standard fillet mignon and crab dish. I ended up not eating the crab. The sauce was too rich and creamy for my liking. I should have gotten a side of shrimp. But, yours sounded better than anything I would have gotten!

Jeanette-X: You'll get LIS down before you know it! Good job on modifying. Oh! yay!!!! I bet you feel like a million bucks right about now with a fresh color and cut! Oh! Traci also thinks your dh looks like a sea caption! Good to know I'm not the only one! LOL

Sandra-X: Nice to see you make an appearance tonight! If I lived in Canada, I would have to temporarily leave the boards until my Cathes arrived. Crossing my fingers for a speedy delivery!!!!!

Traci-X: Who knows what goes on with my hormones. Hope you feel more energized come Friday's workout. Get some rest.

Laurie-XX: Talk to me about Byran Kest. How does he compare to Eoin?

Hi to Tracy, Lea, Amy, Carol, Cheryl and TG!!!

Sweet Dreams to ALL!
Wendy
 
Forgot to tell y'all about my planned midnight workout. I think I'm going to tackle Shiva. I need to eat something and take my LAST dose of clarithromycin: Nasty Stuff!!!! After I digest, I play with Shiva.

Sweet Dreams!
Wendy
 
Good evening,
Had a busy day at work, then afterwards a hair appointment for cut and coloring of gray roots. Will have hair re-woven next time. Really didn't feel like sitting there for even longer to have that done.

Swifty, I love you being so chatty. Wish I had more time to devote. Washing machine is going right now. Got to stay on that task tonite. Your baking sounds so yummy. How do you keep from eating your makings? If I bake it, I eat it. Mmmm, flax and apple muffins! That is awesome about your shoulder pain leaving with your newest bike wreck. Kind of like the cartoons where the guy gets amnesia from a bump on the head. Then later on gets another bump on the head and remembers everything again. Are you suggesting that Traci needs to ride her bike??? ;) Who knows why you are better now, but we'll take it! When I do the trainer sessions in the garage with the racer guys in the winter, it's pretty cold at first, probably 40's to 50's. We warm up in a hurry and the sweat is a dripping and the clothes start coming off. Sounds steamy, huh??? Yep, my services for woodstacking are far more valuable than my housecleaning. He'd better understand and not expect both things to get done LOL.

Laurie, glad someone else is busy, busy at work too. I barely had time to eat my lunch today. I did LIS today but didn't get a big cardio workout as I stumbled around the step a bit. Liked the music and the routine though. Hope to hear from you tomorrow. Vacation days for you?

Sandra, so glad you could check in. Bet you had a wonderful time with your folks. Hoping that you get your new DVD's soooooon!

Nicole!!! So glad to hear from you. We've all been worried and you've definitely been in our thoughts and prayers. Praying that the winds stay down. My job is in the Northern Camp Division with the California Dept. of Corrections. We sent many, many camp inmate fire fighters and custody staff down your way. Was watching the news last night (Fox or something) and they had a headline about inmates recently released to fight fires in So. California. Like these were hard core rapists and murderers just turned out of their cells a few moments earlier! Talk about sensationalism. The fire captain that they interviewed did a good job setting the interviewer straight and telling the real deal on the camp inmate fire fighting program. It's one of the few positives in the prison system.

Debra, I'm thinking it is the poor eating that's made me feel so "blah" lately. Today I was pretty good, darned good in fact, unless you count coffee as being bad (drinking a cup right now). So happy that your friend treats you well. You deserve it, heck we all do! Do you think your XDH is going to flip when he hears about the attorney? Why does he think you won't get one? Did you have an arrangement where you would work out the divorce details between the two of you without involving other parties? Enjoy KB tomorrow. Love your cute Meez! You were much more creative with your T, Th, & F words than I was. I forgot to tell Traci about "whopping Wednesday". Sorry vocabulary, huh?

Tracy, sorry for the lack of energy. Hoping tomorrow is better for you. I kind of think that if I had to do it again, I probably would marry. Love these last 10 years so much more than the first 18. Crab cakes sound delish! We definitely need a good, wet winter here. However, I plan on getting out for the Sunday ride, as long as the temps don't go below 30. I can handle about 1 1/2 hours in the 30 degree range. After that, I can't stay warm enough. Must be the cold sweat. Feet and hands start getting colder. Hope you don't have a cold coming on. I kind of feel like I've been on the verge too. Weather was really warm today. I wished I was either biking or golfing today when I went out for my walk during my break.

Got to go now, see y'all in the a.m.

Jeanette
 
Wendy,
Sorry that the excitement of the trip is a little low right now. I would miss my coffee too. It'll all be waiting for you when you get back. That Phil is a peach for not complaining about getting the purse and exchanging the luggage. He's a smart, smart man. Sorry your friend couldn't make it. Where you live, it's a good excuse for someone to miss a visit. Where I live, I'd figure that person really didn't want to visit me as the population here is around 10,000, with very little traffic. Heck the closest freeway is 85 miles from here. That's great that the antibiotics are coming to a close. Yep, the cut and color look good. I think I look about 35 now LOL, if you are Mr. Magoo.

Jeanette
 
Still digesting.

Jeanette, I see you snuck in on me. I didn't know you had hair extensions. My salon started offering those. EXPENSIVE, but transforming and natural looking!!!!

Traci/Tracy: Got my i's and y's mixed up in my personals.

Talk to y'all in the morning. Going to watch my favorite, would consider cheating on Phil with him, Anthony Bourdain.}( ;-) Yes, Phil knows how much I love the man!!!! And, he's not allowed to hint that another woman is sexy, beautiful, smart, funny, etc...:p

Sweet Dreams of the one you love!!!!
Wendy
