Have fun Hula!! We will miss you.  Off to donate blood. BBL

Janice

Hope you're all having a beautiful morning. I'm a little homesick for R.I. right now, luckily I get to go back next weekend.

*smooches*

xo

Mmmmmmmaaahhh to you Elle!  Thanks!  I'm starting to notice differences but the pics usually help me.  I really should be gettting DH to take my pics as I have the camera set up far away and then use my little remote to snap pics and then go in and crop out a bunch.  The end result is rather pixelly pics that eliminate all of the definition!   I am going to take pics of my arms and shoulders in a couple days when I am working them out.  I'm getting freakishly large muscle there fast but you can only see it while the weights are IN my hands.  Too much fat on the arms still to see 'em while relaxed.  I tried to hold DBs yesterday and make DS1 take a pic but both arms were still completely shot from my workouts and I couldn't HOLD the DBs, never mind lift them! hahaha!

Sorry to hear your little one is barfing today.  Mine did that yesterday.  Had a nice easy day at home.  AAahhhhh.  Back at work today.

Janice, you are such a good girl to go donate blood.  I'm a HUGE chicken sh!t.  My youngest had a blood transfusion when he was 2 and I've always said I SHOULD do it but I have made excuses.  I get weak from doing blood tests and keep freaking out at the thought of giving a whole bunch.  Sigh.  I'll get over it at some point.

Hula!!!  You have a WONDERFUL vacation!  Tell DH that your moonlighting for webbie involves a web cam...  hee hee hee.

Grab the day by the balls and make it your b!tch

Hula, have a great trip.  I hope you get some girl time with your sister.  We'll miss ya. 

Janice, definitely props for donating blood.  Just remember NOT to work out today and to stay hydrated, and eat healthy.  That will help with recovery.  I can't donate blood b/c I lived in England for a while and apparently might have mad cow disease or some crap like that.  So fine, you don't want my blood, you can't have it.  Have a good day today.  Are you off work?

Elle, YUCK on J being sick.  I hope you guys don't get it too.  Perfect way to start the Labor Day weekend, huh? I'm so glad you get to go back to RI (for the wedding, right?) next weekend.  Hopefully the hurricanes will stay away. 

Heidi, YES to your new pics looking good.  You are definitely showing what hard work can do.  Glad your little one is feeling better.  I guess you guys don't have a long weekend this weekend, do you?  Bummer.   

Short day today, I'm taking C for a consult with an OT on his dysgraphia this afternoon.  Then it's home to pack, clean, organize and get ready to leave tomorrow morning.  We'll be gone till Monday afternoon, and I don't think I'll be near a computer.    Will miss you guys!  It'll be a struggle to eat well, but I'll do my best.  We're headed to an amusement park tomorrow, so that should be some good walking, at least. 

And I'm sorry for the lack of personals lately.  Just know that I talk to all of you in my head as I read your posts. 

Hula-That would annoy me. Tell him to go find his own site to get addicted to. Have a great trip and enjoy your sister!

Elle-Yuck! Hope he feels better soon. And that it doesn't spread and cause a major barf-o-rama at your house.

Hi Janice-I usually get a free Chargers shirt when I donate. Heidi-I had something typed out bout feeling your muscles in the shower, but it just sounded weird, even to me.

Rest day for me. I need it. My right shoulder is a mess. I'm sitting here with a bag of frozen veggies on it now. I may have to stop upper body stuff for a whle. Damn impingements! F%$k! Getting my haircut this afternoon. It is way overdue.

Now...

Good morning beautiful ladies!!

Happy Friday to all.

Elle sorry about the puking boy, things like that will happen more often now that he's in school with all those other kids.

Hula have a wonderful vacation!!

Beth have a great trip and weekend.

Carol I have car fever now.  I contemplated taking a rest day in the middle of the night last night, but then I feel better now that I'm up and around.   I'm sorry about you shoulder.

"Put your big girl panties on and deal with it."

Hi Carbar!  So sorry about your shoulder.  Is there anything that can be done for it?  I know, you and I could schedule our surgeries close together so we can recuperate together.    Enjoy your rest day.  What's on tap for you for this long labor day weekend?  Pool time, shopping, driving around in your hot new car?  And I am looking for a new phone, and will have it internet connected so I won't be tied to a computer - but probably won't get it till next month sometime. 

Hi Michelle, have a good CF workout today, and I'm guessing you're headed to the lake this weekend?  I think I read you will see your youngest son?   YAY.  I bet he's having fun but missing his momma. 

Uh oh carbar.  I had tweaked my rotator cuff in my shoulder and it took months of NOT using it to get it better.  WAs a ROYAL pain in the rump.  Now it's driving Beka nutso as there are a whole pile of workouts I simply can't do or it'll go off again.  I can feel them twinge when I do certain movements and I am not willing to go down the out-of-comission road again so I just won't do 'em.  Beka's been great and has found other exervises for me to do instead.  All that to say - as hard as it'll be for you, let it rest for a couple days.  Do more lunges and no upper body and RELAX.   I don't think I wanna know about the shower thing.. .hahaha!!! 

Michelle, have a blast at your workout and enjoy the long weekend.

Beth, we have Labour day weekend as well.  WAHOO!  AND we get off work early today as well.  YAY YAY all around.   No huge plans.  Out for dinner with design school friends tonight and another friend's house warming.  He designed his mother's multi-million dollar home along the rideau canal and they are inviting everyone to see.  CAN'T WAIT!!!   Have a great weekend!!

Grab the day by the balls and make it your b!tch
