````` Xers````` Workin' Hard Wednesday

LIC Upper Body Only and BM2 Upper Body + LIC abs & stretch


Back for personals:

Traci-X, Kickboxing & PlyoX, way to go!! How are you doing today? Feeling the heat? It's still scorching here and I only have a window AC. The AC guys came a month ago and told us the price which wasn't bad, but we decided we would wait until we get our tax refund in February. I'd rather pay cash than use credit at this point in my life. As for my headache it's a bit better but I need one more adjustment to make it 100%. I need to have a yoga week and I just may do that next week, we'll see. I did fit more into my next rotation so I hope it will help. Are you getting closer to pictures on your website? Hey, you're down a pound, is there a better time?

Anointed, So glad you got good rest last night! It's about time:) Have fun with ARX, it's always a goodie. Don't you dare touch those muffins unless you can bring me one:9 Oh no, you just did. Now your gonna have to flush the others down the toilet. You laugh, but I have done this before. Desperate times call for desperate measures:D

LaurieXX, Bummer about the games last night:( Just think of it as an adventure in exfoliation:D No AC still. We did get a little window unit and it will do the job until we get the AC in February. So glad you're feeling better today:)

JeanetteX, Glad you had success with the time trial last night. I'm glad you aren't too hard on yourself. You're out there and that's more than most:) So happy that your DH wrestled that stove in there without incident:) What a guy! It probably is better you weren't there. At least if something had gone wrong it would have been all him:) Off to tile the bathroom? How about you do my hearth first to make sure you're all practiced up!LOL:) Have a wonderful time in Oregon, I would love to visit there again.

DebraX, How's your bum? At least your DH isn't around to smack it! My DH would be all over it if he knew mine was sore:D He loves to give me a hard time. You just reminded me, I have to check and see if my little hummingbirds have food in the feeder...woops:) Wow, you're an official cyclist! ^5. Jeanette has you hooked now doesn't she? I wish I could get out and ride but with small kids it's a little tough. Maybe in a few years. I feel really bloated lately and it feels like I'm carrying around a bucket of rocks in my abdomen. I have a prolapsed bladder and unfortunatley for me, that's one of the side effects:( It's just worse sometimes than others. I got on the scale this morning and it wasn't a sbad as I thought but it wasn't great. I'm up ten pounds from my smallest. My DH tells me I was too small then but I liked it.

Cheryl, I am sitting up straight and holding in my belly as we speak:) Really mde me think. Thanks for sharing! I was going to do the same premix as you but decided on the one above and really enjoyed it because of the band work in LIC. Still keeping busy at work?

Swifty, Oh my, that sounds interesting;) I'm sure it's every man's dream but when you see it in real life it is probably a bit awkward. Enjoy your alone time with DH. I long for that sometimes. Unfortunately for DH, I like to talk and he doesn't. It makes for a lot of one sided conversations. At the same time he probably likes it because he doesnt have to talk:) I'm not sure what I would think about a rat eating out of my hand:D

Jenn, Welcome! Loved all the pics of you and Wendy at RT. How do you eat Snickers and Red Bull and stay so small? Lucky girl? No, I know it's hard work:) As for the levitation holds in the tub, I'll have to try that one. I told Wendy I would try them with yoga blocks under my hands but the bath sounds better. Hey, maybe the pool would be even better!LOL:D Glad to have you in this crazy bunch:)

Carol, Glad to see you again today. I know we can all be a bit overwhelming, but you'll get used to it:) You are doing a stellar job at posting though. Have you done this before?:D Are you almost ready for the school year to begin? It's coming up FAST! When are you starting? Glad you have Wendy for support, I would be no help at all:p

WendyX, Awww, you must like us because you told your friends to hang out here too:) We are such a fun and supportive group. I always feel better after I talk to you all. I know Carol and Jenn will enjoy it. Glad you found some trails to hike. I wish I had some closer to me. It was so fun in Wyoming hiking all over. I hope to go again next year too. Yes, DH is good when I start blubbering. When I go to bed late I start to panick about my weight and how I'm raising my DC. I don't want them to have my OCD or be loud like me. I start dealing out scenarios and freak myself out. I need to stop!

AmyX, Hope your having a fun trip!

TracyX, Almost time for you to come home!!

Have a good night all,

Nicole

Health is the thing that makes you feel that now is the best time of the year.
 
Okay...back again....had a nice dinner of shrimp and scallops and a baked potato...relatively healthy for me! I had a lovely time with Eion today...He really does make me feel the nectar. My funny story of the day, though, is about my dog. So, I am lying there basking in the afterglow during my shavasyna and I heard the dog come into the room, but I was filled with so much honey that I really didn't pay attention. So I am stretching after being done with corpse pose and I look over and my 60 pound dog is lying on her back...all 4 paws out...just like she was doing shavasyna too! It was so funny...I get such a chuckle out of all the critters!

Okay...more personals...

Traci...Dear woman...Hope you guys are keeping safe from the storm. Thinking about you guys! I can usually hang with Cathe on tris, shoulders, legs and back...but I always have to go lower than her on biceps and chest. I guess those were completely underdeveloped muscles previously. I am finding that I can keep up with her better on GS if I use the mix and match feature. I think Tony spoiled me into having more rest time between sets. I think it just takes a little longer for my muscles to recover and be able to lift heavy again. About my buttocks...I know! I fall more in one year than most normal people fall in their lives...LOL! I thought those days were over now that I am in the land of the tropics, but obviously not. I am most certainly one of the goofiest people on earth. Oh, well...what are you gonna do??

Laurie...So glad you are feeling a bit better today. Sorry you guys lost, though. How is DD doing with her cold? Hope you enjoyed PUB..That is always a good one for me...and I never get tired of doing it.

Jeanette...You are probably already headed out for your trip...but if not, have a fantastic time!

Sandra...Sending up a flare to look for you...you promised to be back yesterday...and a no show...now, nothing today...Hope your planets are aligned okay!

Swifty...Still picturing having a rat (even if his name is Derek) eat out of my hand...Just kind of a creepy picture for me...but then, I am not that outdoorsy...LOL! Glad you are mostly done with your chores. I got a real chuckle out of your BIL's situation...How bizarre! Not quite sure what we are going to do with the rocks...The kit came with some jewelry making things...so we'll see. I (as well as being uncoordinated) am not especially crafty. That may be a task for my mom to take on with DD.

Okay gotta run again...I know I still owe some personals...so I will probably bbl to finish up..

love to all!

SandraX! I knew I forgot someone! Where are you?? Busy baking or are you making the final touches on your birthday list?

I threw in a "Quickie" with Eoin today to help aid in the back recovery. It felt good but DS woke up from his nap in the middle of magically hips and threw me off:( I finished it but it wasn't quite as relaxing as usual. I shall try again on Friday.

People who believe they have the power to exercise some measure of control over their lives are healthier, more effective and more successful than those who lack faith in their ability to effect changes in their lives.
 
Another add on..........

Wendy...You crazy woman...I read you terribly interesting email..and will reply to that when I actually have time to do that kind of thing...which should be better next week when DD heads back to school...lol! I do have to comment on Cathe being an apple shape...God bless her little heart...but there is NO WAY!! I am sure if I tried hard enough I could have put that last thing in bold or color if I wanted to think that hard about the computer...LOL! I can't even imagine how tiny all of those ladies are in person. I am sure I would feel like a giant next to them.

Carol...My DD starts back to school on Monday too..which actually means I will have more time instead of less! I do not have the patience to teach my daughter...I am much more patient with other people's kid's...LOL! Aren't you the woman with 57 push ups on your toes...Way to go!!! I promise you will be feeling those tomorrow....I am certainly feeling mine today.

Nicole...My goodness...I am certainly a wimp when it comes to air conditioning. I grew up in a house that never had a/c and lived a lot of my Southern life without it..but I tell you what, at this lovely perimenopausal stage, there is NO WAY I could ever go without! How did you feel after your workout today? I kind of felt out of my element today at the bike shop. I don't know how to do any of the tire changing, repairing, etc that may need to be done...but I did get a pack so at least I can take my cell phone to call someone to pick me up in case I get stranded....LOL! I hate to see extra weight on the scale and it always makes me sad and depressed. I certainly sympathize!

I guess I am really caught up now...I will see you loverlies in the morning!!
