<---- You know, for you I'd bleed myself dry

<---just looked at holiday schedule and guess what?
<---has to work Labor Day weekend!!!!
<---could still work and manage to get to Poconos by 5:30-6 for dinner
<---says the schedule is fluid anyway - people keep retiring and getting sick
<---will maybe have to work every weekend and holiday for ever and ever
<---thinks if Nancy is serious aboot a Pocono GTG we could start a thread....
<---knows kali lives close, and Dana, maybe TiG, Debbie?
 
<--thinks that dinner on Labor Day weekend would be fine
<--wonders if Robin knows a restaurant between where she is and the Poconos?
<--tells Robin we are in Pocono Pines which is here: http://www.lakenaomiclub.com/Directions~3843~226.htm
<--just realized that the !@#$%^&*()_ gym is closed for the holiday :(
<--hates that the stupid gym is always closed when <-- is not working
-Ms. Pants
 
<---isn't real familiar with the area, but can find something
<---knows the Powerhouse (think that's the name) is along Rt 80 near there
 
<---is heading home after a not so bad day
<---thanks you all for keeping <---company
<---asks you all to think of <---tomarrow and Wed
<---'s coworker just told <--- to take Thurs off too - said he had procedure done one day and has no idea what he did the next, just forgot the whole day
<---will maybe be back Thurs, maybe Fri
<---taaa
 
<--- waves goodbye to Robin and tells her to take the extra day
<--- doesn't understand what is taking Robin's DH so long to get at-home internet
<--- says if he doesn't do it soon, <--- will do it!!!
<--- completely forgot to take her auntie biotic and rushes off to do it now
 
<---waves bye but misses Robin, again
<---says the sun is shining and <---still can't let the seemingly ok boys out in the heat
<---has muddled through something resembling school with the gang
<---'s DH is hiding from one of the DS who has been shadowing him all day - it's just funny
<---now has an additional kid in the house today (DH)
<---will join Shelley in obtaining internet for Robin <---is sure we could pull it off someway
<---likes saying Poconos Poconos Poconos
<---says it sort of sounds like saying "poke your nose":+
<---sends sunshine and cool breezes to Amy and DH for their hike
<---was suppose to be hiking, rafting, canoing with family yesterday and today
<---got so excited with all the Poconos <---almost didn't wish Nancy happy veggie shopping and sorry aboot the gym
<---needs a workout
<---reminds everyone cardio = riding in a car, as rodeo = riding horses
<---feels grumpies coming so <---will leave with a :D
 
<--- rushes in with her anti-grumpies gun, which she shoots at Melody's grumpies and watches them dissipate into thin air:)
<--- will be sweating enough on the car ride home that it will SEEM like cardio
<--- can't decide what workout to do tonight
<--- was supposed to run but since there is a smog advisory and it's 100 degrees with the humidex, thinks that is out of the question
<--- is cooking up some kind of workout marathon to do this weekend, to catch up for all the stupid rest days she had to take when sick
<--- wonders if anyone has any ideas?
 
<---is smiling and sooooo happy:7
<---thinks someone must have shot <---with their anti-grumpies gun
<---wonders what grueling workout marathon Shelley will devise
<---needs to to PUB, chinup negatives, core and LM shortly
<---is drinking a protein smoothie and psyching up for the above
<---still smiling:7
 
<---thinks <--- may be too late to suggest a workout for Shelley
<--- will do it anyhow: Imax 3:blasts only + LowMax:blasts only + BC cardio premix, and if you have the time, add on SB Challenge. It'll kick you bootie all the way to Timbucktoo
<---hopes Robin has a great three days off!
<---is very glad she gets three off in a row
<---asks Nancy if she will share the salads - is completely out of salad material tonight
<---had an - umm - interesting workout: got started on Imax 1. Got through first 4 intervals and BAM - power went out (was in the middle of a thunderstorm). Tape is stuck in VCR. Oh well. Moves on to abs. Power still not on. Moves on to weights without music. Interesting - can hear the old knees snap, crackle and pop...is very glad they don't feel as bad as they sound. Power comes back on THANK GOODNESS, because it's getting mighty hot in the house. AC comes back on, ahhhh. Finishes weight workout to music.
<---apologizes for that long one up there
<---is very very glad for rain

<---has been wondering a few things:
1) what made Nancy decide to kick her career into high gear?
2) what fitness certification does Amy have (or does she), and was it hard to get?
<---apologizes (again) if these questions are too forward
<---hopes Melody's tummy is feeling better and that Shelley's anti-grumpy gun worked
<---is totally amazed that the heat index in Shelley's neck of the woods is 100 - always imagines that living that far north, it should always be pleasant and cool
<---has just written a novel..
<---will end it now!
 
<--is glad that Melvin is no longer grumpy ;)
<--has plenty of salad to share with Shannon!
<--just finished an hour of veggie processing with DH during which we listened to the George Harrison Tribute Concert CD which was AWESOME at the end
<--says what a collaboration of amazing musicians all in one place at one time!


<--says, okay, regarding kicking the career into high gear: as Rafiki says, it was time
<--started her career late in life and spent many years at the knee of some great attorneys
<--recently realized that her knowledge had surpassed that of some of the attorneys who were her mentors and it was time to stop playing the role of junior attorney
<--finally got up the nerve after many pushes from DH to talk to the big-wigs about her career and was told that she is considered "partnership material"
<--has been having a love-hate relationship with the idea all year which has resulted in awful skin rashes and terrible tooth pain
<--thinks she may be adjusting and starting to enjoy the whole thing just a bit
<--asks Shannon if that answers her question?
-Ms. Pants
 
<---thanks Nancy very much for the career info
<---can only say WOW
<---admires Nancy very much for what she has accomplished and continues to do
<---is glad she is beginning to adjust... but hopes she doesn't have to continue this pace forever
<---understands, though, that many attorneys do keep up that sort of pace all the time
<---sometimes thinks <--- should try to climb a bit higher on the career ladder
<---simply does not want to give up what free time is left and is not really sure which direction to head, anyhow
 
<---changed <---workout to PLB and additional leg work with machine and core work and made it fine
<---doesn't appear to be getting sick
<---only climbs ladders to retrieve things DSs have thrown way up where they shouldn't be:p
<---does have a creative career aspiration but isn't prepared to tell the world about it at this time:7
<---never wants to be in the dog-eat-dog business world again
<---has enjoyed talking more with Shannon and Nancy this weekend and hopes work doesn't completely horde them away during the week
<---says the boys have been A-OK all day
<---has typed a bunch and said nothing
<---wonders how Amy's hike was
<---has to finish laundry and pack to leave Wednesday
<---can do laundry in <---'s sleep
<---may do that for all <---knows
<---is speaking meaningless words:p
<---knows the kitchen is a wreck and is ignoring it at this time
<---comes back to say bye bye and get <---'s butt up before the tired old legs won't move
<---wishes relaxation to all this evening
 
<---is very glad to hear Melody isn't getting sick
<---imagines she has been totally wiped out, though, taking care of the sick kids for so long
<---is glad they're getting better and bets they're glad too
<---is right up there with Melody about the dog-eat-dog world
<---figures that's why <--- isn't agressively climbing any ladders
<---will be dreaming up ideas of what Melody's creative career aspirations might be
<---has also enjoyed being around more this weekend and chatting with you ladies like old times
<---will try to keep up with morning posts and hopefully evening ones too
<---is going to sign out for the night, read a good book, and let the elbows know <--- loves them before shoving them back into the computer-intensive workweek
<---wishes everyone a very nice evening
 
<--- didn't do any workout because it got too late and there wasn't time and now feels like a massive sloth-like blobx(
<--- says if she go back and do it again, she'd be a lawyer
<--- thinks it's way too freakin' hot
<--- was DRENCHED by the time she got to pick Sophie up because her stupid a/c in the car isn't working and just wants to sit and sob at her fatness and the thought of having to drive that all over again tomorrow
 
<-- is finally back
<-- went to see Over the Hedge, then we went for a hike, then we went to lunch at 3:30pm, then we stopped at the bootcamp office for some shirts, then we went to Target, now we're home
<-- has to get some sleep soon or <-- won't make it to bedtime, LOL
<-- tells Shannon <-- is ACE certified and <-- didn't study and oh well because <-- passed!
<-- felt fortunate to pass, but also, Cathe is ACE certified so a lot of what she says comes from ACE, so if you take the exam and think of Cathe, it could work!
<-- wonders if any of you could send your heat our direction? because <-- isn't very warm at all
<-- tells Nance <-- knows petite is an overall thing, not a height thing, but <-- knows that because <-- is just not a petite frame despite being 5'2"
<-- just got an email from the boss man atty reminding <-- of a task he gave <-- Thursday afternoon at 4 right before <-- left and <-- hasn't done it yet... because <-- hasn't been into the office...
<-- is working on it, really
<-- has much more to say to many more ^^^
<-- wants to know where the Poke-a-nose are and how long it would take <-- to get there from CA?
<-- is going to find DH and a cat and a couch and fall asleep
 
<--is sorry to hear that everyone is gone for the night :(
<--would like to hear more about Shannon's career thoughts for herself
<--is sure that Melody will have a brilliant career once the boys don't need her so much anymore
<--actually thinks that Melody has a brilliant career right now
<--can only dream of being as useful as Melody is
<--wishes Ame could come to the Poke-your-nose, but fears it may be a bit too far for her
<--knows that Shelley would make an awesome lawyer
<--heard that Over the Hedge was great and wonders if Ame like it?
<--wonders what book Shannon is reading?
<--says that's why they call me Ms. Noseypants :+
-Ms. Noseypants
 
<---looks left right up down and around...HEELLLLOOOOOOOO
<---says oh well will talk anyhow
<---waves nitey nite to Shannon and waves to Shelley, Nancy and Amy if y'all are peeking in
<---calls TIGGGGGERRRRR where are you
<---has no career plans which would take <---from home and the boys ever
<---loves the mom career and says this one is especially interesting with will the twists and mysteries of this gang:7
<---so sorry Shelley missed the workout, but again tells her she is NOT a blob
<---tells Shelley to repeat after <--- "I am a fit, firm, beautiful, intelligent, witty, giving, caring, loving, talented, etc etc woman"
<---{{{{{{SHELLEY}}}}}} just for good measure
<---wonders if Amy got some rest in befoe bedtime:p
<---wonders if Nancy had popcorn or yogurt tonight
<---will go read some other threads before beddy bye
