Morning. How is everyone doing? I finally was able to remember the website address to check in from work.

Msb & KT-how close are these fires to either of you? Neither of you are in harms way are you?

So, the legs are a little tight today. I am going to power walk in a few minutes. I thought I had better eat a bit first. How should the exercise schedule be? I guess this shows just how little I have been exercising so far. :(

Going for my power walk.

BBL.

just build up endurance & stretch often - hot baths don't suck either.

everything you try new, you'll feel like crap at first. ask msb, thought i was having a heart attack after my first rowing class. my chest was killing me, now slowly working up i found that the rowing is FINALLY working the biceps & traps like it was meant to be.

slow & steady:) ;)

Ya I am the queen of slow and steady wins the race lol.

Stick with the c25k plan and do not run consecutive days, redo week 1 until you are completely comfortable doing all the runs, if you're sore don't be afraid to take a day or 2 extra off... BUT fill it in with exercise using different muscles or speed walk the routine.

Had to edit to add:

I am not sure where the fires are exactly I know they are hours from me they are closer to kt but I don't believe is in harms way I would have to go save her.

PJTP-Heartfire told me to tell you all Hi. She said that she misses you all terribly.

I didn't exercise like I should have. I did some light weight training (several reps with the arms) and a few squats. The muscles in the legs just ache. I know, lack of use.

I am glad to know that you (Msb) and KT are a safe distance from the fires. I hear about the different fires every year, but since "meeting" you all, this is the first time that I've known anyone that even could be affected.

Labmom-don't forget my blackmail photos. I think someone else mentioned bail money. :P

Y'all have a great night! I am off to take a hot soak in the tub. You know I go to bed eary to be up with the chickens.

Have a great night!

ROFL Ang... However, it's not gonna be so funny when he does it to someone in public... Man my kids did weird things. :blink:

I would fall out laughing. (But then I have been known to be rolling in the isles of the Halmark store while shopping for just the right card too.)

Being a parent is the greatest.....at least I can say that right now, it will be a while before mine son is a tween!

Ang~ Watch what the kids say at home - they say the darndest things in public! Oh my! When mine were little, I always found it hard not to laugh, but that comes back to bite ya!

Slim~ Keep up the work with C25K, make sure you stretch. It will be worth it. We are not close to the fires in Oregon. So no worries! We just got all the smoke when the winds shifted. It is beautiful here today. Smoke cleared, fresh snow on the mountains - sigh.

MsB~ I hate to see the forest burn! It is so sad. In some locations though a good undergrowth burn is needed. We have some pretty dense ground areas that will be huge trouble if they catch on fire! Scary! Headed to Corvallis the other day and it was clear with light sprinkles on this side of the mountain, as soon as I peaked over the top - down pour! Crazy ran!

PJTP: Went to see DD on Tuesday night, we had dinner and then I told her about Penny. She was so sad and started to cry, just broke my heart! She was better later in the evening. We were hanging out in her dorm room with her roomie, they got to laughing and I knew at that point I could go. Had my meeting in Salem and it ran late, so I headed back down to meet her for dinner again. Took her and roomie to dinner and we all laughed the entire time. They get along well, so that was nice to see.

DS has his civil war football game with our cross town rivals tonight - should be fun! He went to middle school with most of the kids at the other school - so he gets to see some of his friends. It is the JV game and we have the BIG game tomorrow night.

Hope everyone has a great day!

hope2lose-they are a very funny bunch!

krtork-glad to know that you aren't close to the fires. Also glad that DD took the death of DDog well. I'm sure it helped to have her roomie there to take her mind off of it. I am sure your DS will enjoy his football game. I am scambling to get the physical done for soccer tryouts next week. I can only pray he makes the team. DS is not very athletic, but he wants to be.

angieb-I have been lucky that DS hasn't said anything in public (that I can remember, it's been a while ;) ). Your DS sounds so cute!

labmom-have fun this weekend!

PJTP-I am fighting a headache. I am not sure why. The training has been informative but dull. Maybe that is why my head hurts? Information overload?

Anyway, have a nice night everyone!

Lab~ Sounds like you all had a fun time! Food and drink with friends, nothin' better than that! Double up on workouts this week, that should do it for ya! :P

Slim~ Sorry about the headache - no fun! Could be from sitting in a meeting room under the flourescent (sp) lights for a couple of days- gets me every time!Hope you are feeling better!

MsB~ Have fun! Nice to get away for a few days! :D

H2L~ Hi, join in any time!

PJTP: DS had a good game on Thursday - they won and it was fun! Had the big game last night and it was a super long day! Wow, 7am - 9:45ish pm! DS loved being on the sidelines and warming up with the varsity - he is hooked on football! Oh yeah, the varsity also won! Go Lava Bears!

I got caught up on my grades and some other stuff at school. It is nice to leave on Friday and not have a ton of extra to do on the weekend. Just been hangin out today. Met a former students dad this morning and worked on a marketing proposal for his business. Kind of fun, haven't really "worked in the field" for a long time. I have some more work to do, but it is nice to do something new!

DD called last night and it was so fun to hear from her! She was really jazzed about her first week of school and absolutely loves rowing! She finely figured out that she is a very strong girl and was able to unleash the beast! She got to power on the rowing machines and beat everyone by a ton on her sprint distance. She and her roomie both got invited to varsity practice this morning, she said it was so fun and she absolutely loves rowing!

Proud mama - sorry! But she has grown so much and had such huge self-esteem issues in high school and she just could not get around it. It is so nice to see her happy and enjoying life! If you see me on FB you might catch her new pic that she is using - she looks so happy and joyful, she is spinning on the beach!

Well, should get dinner going! Well, take it out of the crock pot! BBL!

Hi everyone! Man, it has been a short weekend. I spent the weekend shopping for DS. He must be going through a growth spurt. He shot up over the last month or so. Labmom, he is now as tall as we are (not that it takes much to get to our height ;) ). He is thrilled. He found he is now taller than my mom. He loves that!

Krtork-nothing wrong with being a proud mama! I enjoy hearing about your kids.

Labmom & Glou-I am so glad that you all had fun. There was no doubt in my mind that you would. I lived vicariously through you all's FB posts. Too funny. :lol:

Krtork-I read about your crockpot dinner too late to actually make it in the crockpot, but I did have to have stroganoff after reading about it. It is cooking now.

Msb-I hope that you are having fun (and winning) at the casino!

Hopefully everyone had a wonderful weekend.

I woke up to SNOW this morning! Crazy! We never get snow this early in town. We had a good 2-3 inches at our house and I am sure they had more on the westside closer to the mountains. My irrigation pipe is still out in the field - we still have two more weeks worth of water! It is supposed to be cold again tonight, so it will most likely be icy on the way to school in the morning!

Slim~ I felt the same as you today, must be on the same wave length. I was on the "see food" diet - see food, eat food. Everything went in my mouth today - not good. I think I will also be starting the liquids in the morning - I feel all bloaty (if that is a word).

Labmom~ Glad that you got some sleep! I have been in comfort food mode since the weather has changed. We are having meatloaf later in the week. It is that time of the year when I start using the crockpot at least 1-2x per week.

Hope everyone had a good weekend!

Happy Monday all! :)

Had a BLAST this weekend w/KC and Lu! Loved every minute of it!

Enjoyed the fair - Since we're foodies, I'll talk up the food: We tried most of the fried stuff - and really didn't like most of it. I loved the fried cookie dough! But, very sweet and even I with the biggest sweet tooth ever probably couldn't finish a whole order. We had frozen mojitos in a bag - like a big Capri Sun for adults! And, of course, meat on a stick - what's better than that???

Came home to two sick kids - DD and DH! DD is still not at 100%, but is not running a temp and is dying to go to school. I was going to keep her home today, but she was adamant about not missing any more. (So not like me when I was a kid.)

Now, it's Monday and everyone that I did their work for has moved on....so I'm here twiddling my thumbs. Sent off emails to future boss to say "hey...gimme work." :) Now I'm just waiting....I guess I could dust...or streak.

I'm a dork - can't figure out multiquote?!?!

Lu - I'm on the pouch test now. DH already had a bunch of brothy soups and mushy stuff for me at home. :) He already knew! LOL How bad is that??? Sipping on coffee and water now - too tight for even Slimfast.

Slim - snacking and grazing is all I did all weekend long! Specially during football, I crave the comfort food like chips and dip during fall football - and it was a rainy day... I was horrible! Back on track today, though!!!

Torky - snow? Wow...just WOW. My uncles live in West-By-God-VA and they get snow around this time up on the mountain, and it goes through May. Always nice to visit, but even better to come home!

S'posed to be warm and muggy all week in Houston. Can you say frizz???
