Sorry to be such a Debbie Downer this morning! But I do not feel good, I am tired, sore, and I don't wanna go to work! I've got another full day in court ahead - no time for my own work - and that is aggravating! Oh well, whatever!
Sorry I was MIA this weekend - I tried to stay off of the computer/phone. We had a nice visit with my mom and my cake won the contest. Someone asked (maybe Nina) what I won - a little certificate and a beautiful mum It was just a little church contest, so not a huge deal, but gratifying nonetheless. All the cake got eaten, and everyone raved about how good it was (in addition to being beautiful). It's important to me that my desserts LOOK and TASTE good!

not so excited about monday here either. i slept horribly again and did not get up early - so hard to get on the tm. i can run outsdide this am while kiddos are in school, but that will cut into grocery max time. sigh. maybe my run will put me in a better mood. tonight we start finn's swim lessons - mon-thurs 5-5:45 this week and next. better organize dinner ahead of time!
katie, wish i could have tried a piece, and i do not usually like cake good luck today.

Monday . Already ????
I don't get how the weekends are so quick and I pretty much bet that MONDAY doesn't fly by !!!
Anyway, daughter, son, 2 grandsons are recovering from swine flu ! Everyone finally feels better. Son has a lingering horrible cough and he's going back to the dr. for that but otherwise, it's finally GOOD!
I'm sure my mom has it too but wouldn't go to the dr. so her recovery is slower.
I wasn't feeling well over the weekend, lightheaded, dizzy & very tired......hoping I am fighting it off !!??
Also pulled a muscle (don't know how, just woke up that way on Sat.) behind my shoulderblade and it now hurts all the way down my back.
I think if I do any workout at all today , it will be yoga and abs. I think cardio would be pushing it and can't do weights with this muscle pull. ugh
I hope this week is better !!!!

Morning ladies
Katie have you taken a day to rest? I realized that it's not smart to try to fit everything in on my days off. Y-day was lazy crazy day for me...plus I pigged out on Jr Mints.
Kate enjoy your busy day today.
Nina organizing dinner a head of time is a good idea.
Becky good idea to keep your w/o light today. Glad family is doing better.
Seeing all the people on the news waiting in line for the H1N1 shot is funny to me because there are other types of flu also. They should get both shots.IMO.
Did I tell ya that I ate a big box of Jr Mints?
Anyway today is another day. w/o today will be sts chest,shoulders and tri plus 1/2 of legs.

Morning!
Well yesterday was a bust-ended up leaving church right after the christening because Milla didn't look so good-not wanting any candy was a dead giveaway! She had a fever by the time we got home and slept the whole afternoon. She's home today. Nevena's all stuffed up with a runny nose. Boo to sickness! Hopefully Danica stays healthy-I worry about her with her asthma. Nothing planned today. Hopefully I can get some sort of workout in-maybe a total body like Supersets. We'll see.
Katie, sorry you feel yucky. Hope your day in court goes well. And that cake was stellar! You're so talented!
Kate, busy day ahead! Have fun!
Nina, not sure if it was a mild form of H1N1 or just a run of the mill virus, but everyone around here is testing positive for Type A of which the H1N1 is a part. Milla had no cough and a low grade fever-100*, complained of a headache and had chills. Not fun. Hope you can squeeze a run in today.
Becky, glad to hear everyone is on the mend-scary stuff! My neck is sore from sleeping on the couch last night keeping an eye on Milla. I think taking it easy today is a good idea.
Robin, Jr. Mints aren't THAT bad candy wise Have a great workout-looks tough!

Sorry to be MIA over the weekend, I had a mostly non-computer weekend. I had a nice visit with my parents on Saturday; my mom was very chipper and quite chatty, it was nice to see her feeling good. She was very happy to see me, as she always is, so it makes the day worth it. She's such a sweetie.
And, guess what? I finally worked out again yesterday! Okay, it was just 45 minutes from Body Blast Timesaver, but it was something. And my plan is to do all 5 of those work outs this week. Kind of ease back in. I have tap tonight, so no work out, but I'll do the rest on Tues, Wed, Thu, Fri. My plan is to do these work outs for 2-3 weeks, then move up to CTX, then the real Body Blast and then wing it from there. My abs were a tiny bit sore this morning, but not too bad. The abs yesterday were from KPC. For such a short work out, that one is killer, but I could still do the pikes. Not as beautiful as before, but I'll get back there.
Klaudia, I'm so sorry Milla is sick! Please tell her I hope she feels better soon, if she still remembers me.
Becky, it sounds like everyone is on the mend, that is good news. Do you know what you did to your back? One day I turned my head in the shower and just pulled something in my neck; it was awful! But eventually it got better. I'm pretty sure that was caused by stess...
Robin, I love Jr Mints. I heard someone say they like to get them at the movies and pour them into the popcorn so the chocolate gets all melty....wait, I don't need any ideas on pigging out at the movies.
Nina, I think it's great that you're getting your kids to swim at a young age. It's such a great way to exercise that has no impact. I know you love running, but swimming is the other sport that got me in the best shape of my life. I used to train with a Master's group. Maybe I should go back to that. Oh, wait, I tap now, that's right!
Katie, congratulations on winning! I saw a pic of your cake on FB, it looks fabulous.
Kate, busy day for you, where are you going to lunch?
Okay, hi to everyone I missed! I'll bbiab.

Hi Everyone! I can't believe it is Monday. Boo! I had a horrible dream last night. I was drinking coffee (which I hate) and I kept adding milk to make it taste better. I woke up with an awful taste in my mouth and a stomach ache. I think bad dream and stomach ache were caused by stress. So I skipped my workout this morning which means I do Plyo Legs (Disc 29) tonight.
Nina, sorry about your run. I hate rescheduling my workouts too. I hope Finn enjoys his swim lessons tonight.
Robin, I never like Jr. Mints so it wouldn't be tempting to me. Sorry you had the whole box - I hope it was a small one.
Klaudia, sorry about the MSU loss and the sick kids. I hope everyone just has a cold and recovers quickly.
Becky, this is not your week. I hope you can recover quickly - I miss my Oct. rotation workout buddy.
Katie, sorry you are not feeling great. Less than 2 weeks to your half marathon. You can do it!!!
Kate, busy day ahead. Glad you can be with Isabel at school today.
Anne, ^5 on getting a workout in. I am glad you had a nice weekend with your parents.

finn is sick! just picked him up b/c he had fever of 100. well, within 10 min he is asleep on the couch next to me and quite warm. and i have to get him up in 30 min to go pu aidan! poor peanut. i must be getting it too, b/c i think i mentioned i felt just horrid on my run yday and my tummy never recoveered. well, i went to run after i dropped the kids off and i was half way thru wheni hit a wall. felt AWFUL. like i was on mile 20 of 26. so i managed to run home fast (11 miles in less than 94 min). that is when the school called about finn. i cannot eat anything now, and finn did not want snack. not sure we will be going to swim unless he is better after napping. no grocery store, so that means i will have to haul both kids tomorrow. where is a personal shopper when i need one? i have back and abs on tap for later, but i do not see that happening.
klaudia, finn refused snck today at school - very unusual for him. that tipped off his eacher. hope danica stays okay. hope milla feels ebtter.
colleen, your menu looks so good!
anne, welcome back. so glad you had a good visit with your parents. good wo plan. i did swimming only for the 3-4 weeks i was on crutches last nov. i dropped like 5 lbs without even trying and felt great, other than missing running. maybe i should do that again....
becky, hope your shoulder feels better. yoga is great! def a wo. hope your family gets better soon.
robin, sorry for the junior mints attack. i have had zero cravings for candy other than super dark choc (like 85%), so i have been playing rusian roulette by having it in the house, since i am not eating it. better get rid of it by sun or mon, though as it will be ttom, and then all bets are off

Katie - Congrats on winning the cake contest!
Kate - Have a nice lunch today with MIL. Yuck on taxes though. My least fave part of my work.
Becky - Goodness H1N1 attack! Glad they are recovering well. Hope you feel better soon also.
Robin - Put the Jr. Mints behind you and today is a new day. I like those things also.
Klaudia - Hope your dd feels better. Danica's symptoms is exactly what my dd had on Wed night/Thurs. She complained of sore throat and fatigue. She had a low grade fever also. Now my baby got it, but I think she's over it now. Both only lasted a day or so.
Nina - I wish I had a personal shopper also. Hope Finn is better soon.
Anne - Yay for a workout!
Colleen - Sorry for the terrible dream and sleep. Sounds like anxiety is invading your sleep!
Sorry for being so MIA ladies. My odd was sick last Wed night/Thurs then we had Furlough Fridays which is basically a no school day since the teachers in our state have been furloughed twice a month. It's terrible. So little class time. Anyway, then of course Saturday was football day then yesterday P started with a low grade fever so I think she caught whatever my odd had. It didn't last long or severe and P seems better already. Sounds like this board has some viruses going around also. Prayers for all of us and our families to get better and stay healthy! I'm on recovery week with Insanity so I'll be doing some weights. Busy planning P's party so I'll be on sparingly, but I will check-in because I don't want to turn to candy while stressed!

robin, if you have the bm ub breakdown, i would love it if not too much trouble. i hate being locked out!
lisa, you have been missed. hope you do not get this bug, and congrats on the wt loss!!
finn is napping, which never happens, and aidan is not - he is wired! i felt better after advil and pushed thru abs and backs. prob not the best idea of mine but i am glad i got it done. i really want finn to start swim. maybe he will feel better after a nap.
