Re: February Exercise Thread

Woops...I posted on the wrong month...

Hey ladies! Hope everyone is having a good day. I woke up at 3 and couldn't fall back to sleep so was up way too early for the 3rd day in a row...funny I don't consider 5 a.m. 'early'(which is my normal rise and shine time)...compared to the past 3 days, that would feel like sleeping in.

We did 8 miles this morning, it was in the 20's when we left but is 32* now. I didn't even wear anything on my ears and had to take my gloves off by the last mile. Felt good for a change! Snow, ice and rain for next week...ick.

Trying to decide what the rest of the day holds...it's too nice out to stay home, regardless of my early wake-up call.

I'm going to watch some of the SS Designer shows tomorrow...one of the few things I watch on the Q or have any interest in. Already ordered some stuff.{#emotions_dlg.unsure}{#emotions_dlg.rolleyes} Dh told me to get what I want...V-Day is right around the corner.Wink

Re: February Exercise Thread

Hi, all! Woke up a little late, so didn't get in my full weight workout, but I lifted heavy and went from one exercise to another, so I'm sure I'll be sore tmrw. Then spin. Smiley Wink Pushed myself and it felt good -- and hot and stinky and sweaty. Lol! Ran to the store to get a few more things for our SB party tmrw night. And cleaned the bathrooms and dusted downstairs. Washing the table cloth and I think I'm done except for food prep. The dogs REALLY need baths, so I'm going to try to talk hubby into it. Hard to do on my own with two, and takes twice as long, because I like them really dry, especially in the colder weather. I'm just going to hang around the house today, and I'm SO glad! Hope you all have a good weekend. Patty, did you buy anything good? Not sure if hubby and I are doing V-Day gifts. We aren't usually too big on the holiday. Smiley Wink This year, we are just staying in and I'm fixing something delicious and picking up our fave dessert from a local place for dinner. Ok, I'm out!

Hi FUTURE!! Good to see you! We don't normally do V-day gifts either, I buy what I really want all year long and would rather pick out jewelry and stuff myself. I'm picky and everyone knows it, life is easier this way...lol. The past couple of years J.R. has been coming for a visit around this time so dh calls it my V-Day gift just because he likes to think he got me something...lol. Have fun at your SB party! We were invited to one but it's too far to drive and we're too lazy for that!

Did another 6 miles(and weights) since my last post...to the post office and to Ulta for my hair products. That's a hilly route too...ugh! Stopped at The Chocolate Lover's Festival...eh.

Future, enjoy your party tomorrow. Patty, you're a machine! I did an hour of cardio. It felt good to finally get a workout in. Hi, Bopper, thanks for starting a new month.

Re: February Exercise Thread

You ladies are motivating! I'll have to keep my eye out for this thread. I walked 3 miles carrying 35 lbs in my neighborhood. I found the biggest hill we have and went up and down it 4 times. I had to improvise this morning, since I'm on call for work, and have to stay close to my computer!

Re: February Exercise Thread

Bagsers, welcome! Thanks for posting. You did great today. How do you carry 35 pounds? A weighted vest maybe? It sounds like hard work! Good job.

Re: February Exercise Thread

Welcome Bagsers!

nomless, in CF and bootcamp, we just carried kettlebells or dumb-bells...or did lunges across the gym with a 45-lb plate held above our heads. So I'm wondering if there is an easier way too...bagsers???

Would you believe the tops of my feet are sore today??? How weird is that? My back is too but I used the 25-lb db's for rows so that I can understand.

I hope I didn't make a miscalculation in my JR purchasing...lol. I didn't get the OTO last night because I saw an unauthorized photo of a necklace that I really want, I'm not getting 2 necklaces so I passed and now I'm afraid the UA one won't be presented this visit and I'll miss out on both!

If that's my worst problem, I'll take it.Wink{#emotions_dlg.rolleyes} Hope everyone is doing well! bopper, where were you yesterday...I know you told me you exercised!

Not sure what today holds...I walked Lucy a little this morning because it felt so nice out!! I just get nervous when it's pitch black out there.

Re: February Exercise Thread

Morning, I did post yesterday and it must have disappeared again.. That's annoying.

I just made myself some breakfast. Hubby and sons went to camp yesterday for their man weekend! I had my alone weekend with my buddy Logan. Another cold morning but I had my wood stove fired up early so it's nice in here..

Who's watching Super Bowl today? We are for sure...

I am using my son's laptop and am very new to this so pardon me if I mess it up. I was trying to scroll up and can't figure out which key to use.

Welcome Bagsers, sounds like you had a great workout on those hills carrying your weights. Great job...Glad you are joining us.

FUTURE hope your party goes well. How many are attending?

Nomless have you been swinging that KB lately?

I see BB has a new program out . Anyone getting it?

Well I don't have much here so ya'all have a good day OK?
