Your AVI is rockin', Momma!
You're going to do a great job working solo - you totally have the skill, ability, and know-how to manage yourself.

Thanks, Norah.
I forgot to log my workout from last night. It is nothing too exciting. All higher reps, lower weights.
Hammer curls
8eX12, 8eX12, 8eX12
Lat raises
8eX12, 8eX12, 8eX12
Front raises
8eX12, 8eX12, 8eX12
OH db press
8eX12, 8eX12, 8eX12
I then walked my neighborhood and got in 2 miles. HR raised, but nothing crazy.

Honestly, I think the fact that HM hit top 40 and I sometimes got stuck singing the songs, turned her off. LOL

Thank you, Ladies.
No gym, tonight. I had to work late because I went in later after getting the kids off to school, for their first day.
But, I did go down into the exercise room in my basement and played around a little. I may hop on the treadmill, I may not.
BB Deadlifts
95X12, 95X10, 115X10, 95X12
Front squat
45X12, 45X12, 45X10
Incline BB chest press
45X12, 45X12, 45X12
I had planned on doing some more, but got interrupted and gave up.

First day of school here, too. It's going to be hard getting back into the groove of things with school and work. Good thing I only have to fit in cardio tonight so I don't have to haul equipment out. |

Yes, I figure the first couple of weeks are going to be an adjustment and I am trying to stay prepared. My 6 year old was waaaayyyy whiny last night and I know it is because she is tired, but it still doesn't stop my ears from bleeding.
I just need to get through today. I am off tomorrow (woo freaking hoo!!) and have my Bod Pod appointment. I had it scheduled for 7:15, but decided to change it to later, so I could take the kids to school. So, I will be there at 11:00.
I also have a plan for my little stray kitty family. A neighbor has let me borrow a live trap and my Mom brought me over 2 of her kitty carriers and "operation rescue kitties" in on, this weekend. I am going to get them to the Humane Society and get them set up with their shots and spayed/neutered. They have a program that will defer some of the costs for me and then we will go from there. I have pretty much fallen in love with them all, for very different reasons. They are looking so much better now and their fur is all shiny and silky, so I am pretty sure they would get adopted. I do have plans to keep at least one, but picking that one is going to break my heart. They are just so helpless and again, I've fallen for them. They are staying in my shed out back and come out when I call them.  Anyways, I hadn't said anything in here about them for a while, so I thought I would update.

You know, the crazy cat lady (dubbed this by Hubby) does in fact have some pictures of these babies. I will post some in here, this weekend.
I hope there is progress or I will cry. Actually there has to be, but there is part of me that is still pretty nervous.

Aww, definitely post pics of the kitties! And you are not a crazy cat lady unless you are unmarried, alone, and own 97 cats (give or take a few dozen).... so you tell your hubby you are far from being the crazy cat lady :-)
Good luck with the bod pod! I know you will see some great results!

Yeah, my husband says two is just shy of crazy cat lady status. I vehemently disagree...

best of luck with the BodPod- Need to find someone who does this one. I actually need to find out how much my trainer would charge for doing measurements, I figure it would be a normal charge for appt but not sure. He is going to school so our schedules don't match up anymore.
