Sunday Roll Call
Yesterday turned out to be a gorgeous day around here. The sun was shining and the weather was so mild. We hit 52 degrees. I was so warm, I had to come home and exchange my sweater for a regular shirt under my coat. I was correct, there were tons of people out and parking was a challenge especially at Trader Joes and Whole Foods.
I never did find any work out shorts. I went everywhere but the largest size they carry is XL and I wear an XXL. What a waste of time that was! I heard Nike has them on their website so I will try them next.
My hubby and I hooked up and had dinner in the city. We had Chinese. I cant eat rice anymore, so I had the vegetables and some chicken. It was so good. Of course, most of it came home with us. We came home and watched Scandal and promptly fell asleep like the old married couple that we are.
I have to work today. Everyone called off due to the cold, so I got the call yesterday to please work. I am going to work after church. I've never done this on the weekend. I imagine everyone will be home....yikes. So I wont get to see any of the football games today. We are rooting for New England, I think......Grathell said he would ride with me to make sure everything goes smooth today. I welcome that.
The wind woke me up a few times last night. It was howling. I was surprised to see my lawn furniture still had their covers on this morning. Our garbage cans were all laying flat against one of our cars. This has to be the coldest day so far in 2013. My girlfriend in Alabama was so excited yesterday that they had snow. The city shut down over a few inches. I told her we haven't really had any to speak of. She was surprised because she used to live here and hated the weather.
Well, stay warm on this very frosty cold day.
What will you be doing today?

Hello everyone
I was feeling very drained all day yesterday. I had to really push myself just to finish my workout and usually I do really well on My weekend workouts. Then I ended up taking a nap. I just had no energy. I hope today is better.
Although, it's not as cold today as they were saying it's still pretty cold. I am still planning to stay in as much as possible. I will go out for working out and laundry.
There was another creepy guy at the gym. These guys were were helping another guy move in to his apartment. The old guy noticed me working out and he kept stopping and standing there gawking at me openly. He was just outside my window. I don't understand when guys are staring at women, why aren't they embarrassed when they are caught. Like if I'm caught looking at someone I right away look away. But not men...they keep on staring!!!
Sharon- If you're going to be out in the cold working you should get some thermal underwear. They have great stuff at Kohls, and it's not as expensive as Underarmour. http://www.kohls.com/catalog/women-intimates-cuddl-duds.jsp?CN=3000000126+4294872844. I wear the Active Layer.
This week Winter has really arrived...lows below zero. So bundle up.
Have a great Sunday...see ya later...bye
i do not care for the idea of these pervos gawking at you with no shame. They clearly are not gentlemen. Do they show up after you have started working out or are they there and then direct all their attention to you? Do they come into the work out room or do they stare thru the window? I wish you could do something to shame them. You need to borrow my hubby. Nobody messes with him.
Today since everyone was home for the games and the weekend, I had 2 big dudes from 2 different residences take off after me when i took a pic of their house. As soon as my husband got out of the car they backed off quick. My hubby isnt too fond of this job I have. But i tried to explain to him, during the week I never see a soul. I'm going to tell my boss I cannot do it on weekends anymore. i think it's probably safer when everyone appears to be working during the week. One guy was screaming at me as he came after me. Testosterone can really fire a guy up. Women just stick their hand out the door and take the form quietly. men seem to take it personally.
On a positive note I saw 2 robins and a bunch of geese flying north. The birds are either confused or we are going to have an early spring! I prefer to acknowledge mother-natures 6th sense.
Crystal, please be careful and take it easy. Your bod needs rest. It's not a sign of weakness to chill. Or perhaps God is trying to keep you safe in your apartment today. Heed my child!
Hugs,
Sharon
Good Morning,
Blue ink for cold weather. It was 16 ' when I looked. This has been a great weekend with friends and family.
Friday, my friends came in at 2 and we talked until we left for dinner at 5 , then talked some more, until 12:30. Saturday morning we went to Bloomington, for my Annette's engamement party, then we went to the Hockey game. We got home about 10:30. Then this morning, after I got up., at 8:30, we went for breakfast, They then headed south, and we came home to relax the rest of this day. It was a great weekend!!
Next weekend we have an aneiversary party to go to.
Hugs, LISA.
Afternoon Everyone!
Yesterday was a great day to sleep in. I awakened at around 11:30 am got up and went to the bathroom and then went back on the bed to play with the cats and fell asleep for another 2 hours. I guess I am still sick. Or all wiped out. Today I slept untl 11am after getting up around 7:30 to feed the cats. I have not been outside today and do not plan to go out. We went shopping yesterday afternoon while it was nice out.
Today is my pj's or robe day. Today it is pj's with the fleece pants. So comfy! I wish I could wear them to work.
Sharon, I hope you dont freeze out there today and am also glad you have company with you. That will make the time go faster.
Lisa, I am glad that you had a nice weekend. Enjoy relaxing today.
Crystal, I hope you are not getting sick. This bug just wipes you out. If I were you I think I would just start making faces at the perverts or give them the finger. That is so creepy and disgusting. Or maybe I would tape up a curtain on the wall while I exercised. Or just ignore them. I dont know.
I hope everyone has a great day and stays warm! I do not look forward to going to work this week as mornings are always so cold!

Sharon- You were asking if they are there or show up later. Almost always I am there first and they happen to come along and see me and I guess I interest them. They are usually in there with me...today was the first time a guy was outside looking in. I think he thought I couldn't see him...maybe??? I completely ignore them. I pretend they aren't there. I have thought of taking my phone and taking a picture of them...(I was thinking of that saying "take a picture it lasts longer" hahaha!!!) Every single one of them are either old or really out of shape...so I have the upper hand when it comes to the physical...and I think I would be able to "take them" if it came to that...and if not...I'm certain I could out run them.
I am pretty good at gut feelings and so far I haven't had any feelings of danger. If I had that feeling I would stop my workout immediately and leave ASAP!!! I would not play at being a bad ass...I only do that when I have to.
Also if it makes you feel any better the workout facility is connected to the business center and there are ALWAYS people there. So I'm not really alone. There are usually people in the next room, coming and going.
