Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

Oh...nomless, I wish I could post a picture here with my phone. Lucy begging for Benny's food is so stinkin' cute!! She gets down on her front legs with her butt up in the air and stays there watching him eat, then she crawls over on her belly right to his bowl.

Then last night dh was singing and playing his guitar to her and her eyes were getting really heavy and her head kept dropping. She was so relaxed and enjoying her serenade...lol!

She really is the sweetest little thing..ugh...love her so much! {#emotions_dlg.rolleyes}{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

Happy Saturday everyone!

Dh is done...his going away luncheon was Thursday and awards ceremony was yesterday! He survived the Pentagon!{#emotions_dlg.laugh} He can't wait to get back to 'his' community but he met some great people here that he'll be friends with forever. He got a nice gift and his boss is coming over at 10 to give him a personal one.

I went for a 3-mile run yesterday, got a ton of cleaning in too so was sweating up a bead with that.

Trying to decide what to do this morning. We were 41* and not much warmer yet and I'm loving it!!! Think I'll do it all...some weights, a run, and a bike ride.

Hi mtnbikegirl! nomless, I hope you get your dvd's, you sound excited! bopper, I hope your back is better. MickD, I hope you guys get a break, I heard it's coming. We used to live out in Scripps Ranch and have some friends that live in San Diego...such a shame.

Okay, better get cracking! I think I'm going to a really nice outlet mall today, want to check-out MK's and a few other places. Usually not a huge outlet mall fan but everyone at the gym was saying this one is really nice, said the White House/Black Market usually has clothes that are still in the regular stores...might get my dil a nice handbag for her birthday.

Hi! This is a great thread you started!!! Thanks!

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

Hey all, I have to report I have nothing to report. Back is very tight and sore...it may be longer than I thought but I can't push it either.

Welcome mtnbikegirl, glad you pushed through your workout....we all have those days.

nomless you still did it! Great job!

Pppmint congratulations to DH and Lucy is a sweetie...........

Tomorrow is supposed to 60 so I hope they are right, however DH said the little biting black flies are already out trying to bite your ears and neck....those things are so annoying...

Well that's about it here....see ya tomorrow.

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

Morning! bopper, you gave me a laugh right out of the gate..."I have to report, I have nothing to report"...lol...didn't see that one coming! I hope your back is better today. Mine feels better but I know the driving is going to take care of that! I hate those biting flies!

I just went for a run yesterday, didn't do weights. Decided to come home, shower and head up to the outlet mall. I went in BHWM, Ann Taylor, Kate Spade, Saks, Theory, J.Crew, Barneys, Coach, MK's, Skechers, Banana Republic, Ciba's, Elie Tahari, Talbots...and think that's it...and came home with a pair of running shoes for myself and my dil...lol! I was overwhelmed. plus have been shopping too much as it is.

I will run and do weights this morning...maybe a quick ride. We're driving back to Pittsburgh today, kids fly in this afternoon from HI and apparently they can't wait one more day to see their dog. Cool

Thanks ladies! Waving to everyone, love reading your posts!

p.s. Mtnbikegirl, I don't know who started this thread, I was a late comer. bopper has kept it going for years. We're glad to have you!! {#emotions_dlg.thumbup1}

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

Hi everyone and happy Sunday! I went for a walk yesterday morning with DH and the dogs...very smoky, but we needed to get outside. (We live just outside the northern border of Camp Pendleton, and Friday night I thought we'd have to bug-out due to the fires. 8k plus were evacuated. The fires on the base are 40ish% contained and way East of us now...) Today we took the dogs on a power walk and trail run. Air quality much better......have some foot nerve pain (%^&^%!) and surprisingly ended up with shin splints. It has been a long time since I have been out walking, let alone jogging, so I need to get used to working the different muscle groups. Jogging on the trail is much different than on the treadmill.

Welcome Mtnbikegirl!

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

Hi All! I see I have been MIA ,again! I have caught up on posts. nice to meet new friends. I have continued my erratic workouts: the Firm, LS, Jillian.... The mayflies are very irritating so I have to be willing to deal with them on any outside excursion. The weather has not been too bad. no snow, no complaints! Work has been up and down. The census has varied from 7 to 30- enough to drive ya crazy. I am glad everyone is doing well.Yes, bopper- did get to watch my races. Tony still having a tough time. Oh well. So my friends, you may be out of sight , offline but not out of mind!
