Happy Birthday to Rach!

Ike has taken a right turn and is now heading for planet Houston. I really hope they don't have to evacuate Houston - it's the fourth largest city in the US! Now that we are on the west side of the storm we are out of any danger - and out of most our rain :grumble: Might be able to go for the bike ride though!

Yesterday was weights, yoga, and walking. I went up to 10lbs for most of weights class and it made yoga kinda hard afterward. Today I'm just walking.

Hope everyone has a great workout today!

Mary

    Morning!

    Today is spinning and weights.

    and finishing at least two re-writes.. . ugh.

    Happy workouts.:flowerforyou:

    Glad you dodged the bullet, Mary. Houston would be a massive evacuation. . .we'll have to see. Yikes.

    And, happy birthday, Rach. (now I have a craving for cake. . .I am so hard-wired.)

    You can call me Rudolph today. I sit amongst piles of wadded up tissue and just want to sleep all day!The first three days of the cold weren't bad, but it hit hard last night. I did manage to doze off and on until 8:30 when Alex decided it was time for me to get up. I wish he was taking a nap this afternoon because I would too. He has a neurologist appointment this afternoon. He has a bit of a cough and once in awhile a runny nose but I'd say I got the brunt of this cold! He seems pretty much fine, which I am pretty sure has to do with a lot of prayer! Me? Well, I will get through it. It's only temporary. It seems once I get on a roll with working out I get sick, so this is no surprise to me.
    Anyway, today is no exercise. I am going to try to drink all my water. Find something for lunch. Get my son to his appointment and see if my hubby will be gracious enough to make dinner. Thankfully he hasn't gotten it yet! I am hoping he won't!

    Mary, glad the worst is going to miss you. I hope you do get some rain though. We are suppose to this weekend.
    Happy Birthday Rach!!! Eat a piece of cake for me! Or...maybe you shouldn't.

    Check back in later!

    Good morning ladies:flowerforyou:

    I hope you feel better soon Melissa & very glad Ike won't be affecting you Mary.

    I am still doing Turbo Jam & I like the results. Belting my size six jeans is like a gift from God. Very nice weather here today so I'll get a nice walk in after school and son and his family(with newest grandbaby) will be here for dinner tonight.

    Happy Healthy Thursday my friends!

    Aww, get well soon, Melissa! :flowerforyou:

    My brother lives in Houston... and works for the fire department... so I expect he will be sticking around regardless! Not sure about his wife and baby - I'll have to call him tonight. I sure hope Ike doesn't strengthen like they are saying... :frown:

    Again, I was up too late and couldn't wake up early in time to do my shred. And, I am feeling pretty sore in the knee and shoulder today. So we will see - I may just try and go for a long walk when I get home tonight.

    And happy birthday, Rach!

    Well, I managed a 30-minute walk - I wore the HRM and actually burned more than I expected (156). Skipped shred because my shoulder is really sore, but I did my pushups - 73 in all, and 17 in a row on my last set. Now, off to bed! :yawn:
