Fitness Challenge - November 22

Good morning LW's....

Sorry for being MIA...I wish I had an excuse to tell but not really...just got busy with shopping and family etc. Also the boards were quiet the past few days last week so I'd thought I'd give you a break...lol

So what did ya'll do this weekend? 

Me?? Well, I went shopping for shoes...nice ones. Got me snow boots FINALLY in the 20+ years I've been living here...better late than never, right? 

I won't be going to the gym today or any fitness as my DS1 has court today...swing lizards that it all goes the way I hope it will. He's done with his com serv hours and we agreed to pay the restitution. Now the 2nd charge is today and hoping that since everything is done early (January was court deadline for 1st charge) that today will be either dropped completely or plea entered and all time/$$ served. Hoping....BUT if there are more hours/$$ to contribute, then we are prepared for that too. He is also moving out again next week once this is all done. So swing lizards and I'm all about prayers LW's...

So what are your plans today? This lovely holiday week?? 

Whatever you are planning/doing...stay safe, warm, hydrated and HAVE FUN!!! 

HUGS!!!  

I'm taking today off too. It's my normal day off, but I was planning on working out every day this week due to our 3 Thanksgiving dinners (Wed, Thurs, and Fri). I was going to take it easy on my normal days off and go hard on my regular work out days. But I fell down the stairs yesterday and banged myself up pretty good, so it's a day of rest for me.

I'll say a prayer for you and DS. I hope everything works out!

Oh Shannon - I hope you're ok?  What happened to make you fall?

I was carrying clean sheets up to the kids' rooms and one got caught on the baby gate. I was halfway up the stairs and it tugged, so I turned around to go down and unhook it, but tripped. So I went down forward on my knees. It knocked the wind out of me and scared the heck out of me lol.

I'm glad you're ok... I can imagine that would be VERY scary!

It was. I was home alone and it flashed through my head that I was going to break something and be stuck, or hit my face and Thanksgiving is coming. It's funny how many things can flash through your head in such a short time.

Praying all goes the way you want it too for you son in court.... that can't be easy....

I'm going to go to zumba tonight for the first time in over 2 weeks... we'll see how the tummy holds up.  I think I'm ready!!

NBF is coming over tomorrow night - depends on what time he gets there depends on whether I go to zumba - but I have a feeling I'll be REAL sore in the bummy from tonights' workout.... and I don't want to pu****

Hi All,
     Hope all goes well in court today Diana.
     I hope you are feeling better Shannon, that must have been scarey falling like that!
     Jody, have fun on your date tonight!
     I took my mom to see her 90 year old cousin and her 96 year old mom this weekend.  I did great with my eating and exercise with 2 days on the road.  Tonight we are taking DDI and DS out to dinner for her birthday.  I have looked the menu over and found a couple of choices that should work for me.  I am going to 24 hour fitness in a couple of hours with a friend for 45 min cardio and 20 min of strength training.  My weight is just staying the same, 153-155#.  GERD is much better.  Hope everyone has a great day!

Diana I hope everything went well with your son today. Sons can really take it put of you with worrying it seems. Shanon,I am sure glad you weren't hurt worse. Hope you feel better soon.
I am going to take s week break and start back in next week concentrating on speed work.

Hey Dianna, missed you this weekend! Best of luck with your son.

Shannon - ouch!!

This weekend, I got in one good long run - 11 miles. Yesterday I rested.

I am supposed to go to fitness class tonight, but I think I will swap it out for tomorrow morning's run. It is supposed to get down to 22 tonight and it's been raining. I will be pulling "a Shannon" if I get out there on the ice! :)
