Xers =======Wonderful Wednesday

Hello, family of xers! Whew! DH is out with DD going door to door.

Here goes my attempt at past 4 days catch up from me.

SandraX:::::::No, unfortunately after all this time I don’t do more than 2 unassisted pull ups. All are done with a chair. New P90X+ vids look very scary. I dislike buying wo’s that I can’t do with a mass modifying. I’m skeptical. What do you think? I checked the mummy cooky on the Wilton site. Very cute! Do you make your own icing or buy the stuff? While my filled cupcakes came from a box, I made the crème filling. I used a #21 tip. Went to wash it and ended up crushing it in the disposal. Duh! I agree Cathe is a natural born KBer. As I did KM today and thinking “I’ll need to do this routine 5x before not falling over on those punch/kick combos”.

CherylX::::::::::Sounds like you are enjoying the new Cathe’s!

WendyX:::::::::::: How do you spin for a wo? And what’s this? A new laptop? Nice! I think it will enhance your trip ten fold. Do you camp or have you camped in the past? Will your living quarters in Thailand and surrounding region take you to the back woods? It should be relaxing not to have to deal with everyday hustle and bustle as we know it in USA. I’m sooooo excited for you.

NicoleX:::::::::WTG on stepping back on the wo wagon without another word! You go! How do you occupy your little ones to fit in wo’s? When DD was small I used a bumper jumper in the door way and ignored the screaming. Any mom who can make time for a wo with little ones is tops on my list! It’s tough and the payoff is a little me time and nothing like a good sweat to make a girl feel good.

TG::::::::::::::::::::: What’s the status on your workday Nov. 6? I’m off. Don’t have any plans yet. Just think you could use the $$$$$. It’s probably gonna rain anyway. Your life is surely balanced by now, eh? Must feel good. When drinking all the H2O do you add lemon or flavoring to get it all down. Somedays I just can’t take plain ol water. It’s so tough to drink it up.

NettaX:::::::::::::::::Those new wo’s are getting you going for the burn too. Sad I just couldn’t cough up the $ for the series so soon after the RT. I am looking forward to Cathe’s bag wo. I have a bag and gloves (it belongs to DH) in the basement just ready to be punched. It’s so good you listen to your body when it tells you “that doesn’t feel so good”. It takes a smart woman to do so. I on the other hand have pulled some pretty big uh oh’s when not listening to what the bod is saying. I’m just not as wise as you yet. Is all the wood stack yet? How was the shrimp/steak barby? Has the bag in the garage disappeared since little ghosts and goblins come knockin? I’m going to offer DD a small toy in lieu of the booty she brings back home tonite.

LaurieXX::::::::Congrats to DD on all those awards! You must be one proud mama.

TraciX::::::::: Go Traci, Go Traci, get your groove on! Go Traci, Go Traci, you can do it! The November rotation is in for one big xer butt kicking. Watch her go!

DebraX::::::::::::: ROFL on your pumpkin poo comment! You’re too much!

Hey there Tess! P90X awaits you. Sure you are girl! Give it everything you got! We're here to help you bring it.

Hello to all I missed! Enjoy your "sweet" evening.
 
Ok, I'm back!

Long day! I left early to go to breakfast with my BFF and I did good and had a bowl of oatmeal with berries @ Mimi's. After that we went to our children's football game. They had a fun time and they won! We ran errands afterwards then had lunch. We went to Panera and I had the Fuji Apple Salad:9 All in all I think it was a good eating day:)

I also went to the chiro and feel like there may be a light at the end of the tunnel as far as my back is concerned. I love the new rotation and I think I will give it a whirl in a couple of weeks. It's too soon to do it now:(

Tracy, How were the workouts today? Sounds like a good mix:) You better get out and run while you still can. Do you have a treadmill that you use in the winter?

Traci-X, So sorry to hear your arm is doing badly this week}( Did you push it too hard or just tweak it wrong again? I hope it's only temporary. Thanks for the encouragement on my weight. I too am thinking it will melt off;) My boobs are huge(not to be too graphic:) so I know it's not all fat but some water for sure. I would love to start the Nov. rotation but I think I will have to wait until Nov.16th.

Jeanette, Gee, I feel so much better knowing all of the convicts are safe and sound in my backyard;) How did it go today? Was the food ok? I am lucky to not have any Halloween candy in the house so I am not tempted. We don't get any trick-or-treaters around here. My back is just protesting because of my constant working out. It's purely an overuse injury. I can't believe you don't like kickboxing. Do you like bootcamp? I am not yet ready to try any of them but I do hope to in a couple of weeks.

Swifty, It gets cold in this world?:D It is going to be 90 here by Sunday so I can't imagine:p Whew, that running around was a workout in itself:p I actually don't get too much trouble from the wee one when I'm working out. I turn on a show and set up his train(I know, shame on me) and he is set until I'm done.

Teddygirl, So did you work today or just visit the little girls room all day?:D You are such a hard worker! What a workout!! Are you going to try the pear shaped workout?

Debra, I would sa I'm glad to have a partner in pain with me, but I know what it feels like:( I definitely think you should check around for a new masseuse. I am lonely for my DH and it's only been 5 days, I can only imagine what it felt like to have him gone a year. The funny thing is how much you think about"that kind of stuff" when they're not around:p I'm glad you have a guy around now to fill those lonely times.

Carol, How did you like the step workout? I have tried any of TS yet, I'm kind of addicted to Cathe.

Wendy, Happy memories to be had for all:) Glad grandma can spoil them!

Laurie, The ceremony sounded lovely! Glad DD has so many patches to show off:) What a bummer about the coach:( I'm sure they'll pick a good one for next year. Thank goodness my DS is only playing flag football this year. They will play flag until 8th grade and then it's the real thing.

Sandra, How was shopping with the little poop collector? ;) Did you get the pumpkins carved? I am going to do caramel apples with the boys tonight and try to steer clear from eating them:9

Amy, Have fun dodging trick-or-treaters:) I cannot imagine squatting with more weight than I can lift over my head:p Have fun with that.

Tess, Glad to have you! We are a crazy bunch:) A few of us are starting a new round in Dec/ Jan. We have all been through it once though and are full of tips.......or is it hot air?:D

Cheryl, Sorry your running buddy is partially on the IL:( Glad you were able to get a bit of a run in:)

See you all later,

Nicole

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.

Hi, everyone!

I ended up missing my workout today - just couldn't move out of bed this morning - so I guess today is it! :) :) x(

Traci, how did the plyo legs go??? Hope you're less stiff tonight.

Teddygirl, I KNEW you would like DM. Bet you're booty is sore tomorrow morning }( }( Thanks for the reminder on water. I need to do better myself. That's a lot to drink in a day, gal - hope you made it.

Amy-the-swift, what a day trying to get your workout in!!! I admire that you tried so hard. Yes, 5 a.m. would have been the best plan, but sometimes the best laid plans just don't work out.

Tracy, nice workout mix.

Well, time for bed - I need to see what Cathe's Nov. rotation looks like... I bet it'll be fun!!!

Happy Halloween, everyone!
Cheryl
