Great Balls of Fire.
That's all I have to say about that. How's your day going kittens? Mine was a bit of a downer- we woke up to SNOW on the ground. I'm telling you, there is always snow in Chicago in April. It's mostly gone now but still....a total bummer of a cold chilly day. My friend Wendy who was here for the weekend had to leave early today because she came down with an ear infection, bummer for her! And like everyone around me is sick in some way right now! Time to buckle down and make sure I don't get anything! ;-(
What are your tips for keeping healthy and keeping colds/flu at bay?
How about parking THAT at my door? That should keep a lot of things at bay. I'm just sayin.
So, anyway, as I share in my UTTERLY VOID OF FOCUS ramble-on-a-thon below, I totally was not feeling the workout MOJO today. I was feeling ikky and just plain whiny. It's as if Aunt Flo was still here but she left yesterday. Anyway, I feel good that I made myself NOT do a drive-by workout, I put my game face on and did about 40 minutes of Tracy Effinger's Squeeze Stronger DVD.
Let me tell you this DVD is no joke. All lighter weight but it's non-stop and I also like some of the kind of "barre movement" work she does. I view this as more of a cardio workout but I like it. And I really like mixing all my DVDs up so I'm never bored and my my body never knows what to expect. I'm anxiously awaiting the moment UPS shows up with my Insanity Asylum and Brazil Butt DVDS......INTENSE.
I would just like to rent him for a day or so- like a good Netflix movie, you know...he'd be like a repeat rental. I mean, really, I bet when you die, the angels in heaven probably look like our friend. For Realz. And the girl angels probably look like Kim Kardashian. Do you agree? I'm sorry, she's my girl crush in a massive way.
Anyway, I'm off to get some work done-- remember, we have some big FitFluential news this week! WOOT!! I'll be back tomorrow!

YES YES YES!!! Now that is a man....even if he is bare chested since I like my men furry! I swear these keep getting better and better, loves it!
For me, as long as I'm getting my veggies and fruit in, I don't get too sick but when I stop, don't get enough rest, drink too much and are constantly on the go, a cold will be in my near future.
Can't wait to hear the big news :)
I've been AWOL again. My sister passed away on Thursday, right before that my father got admitted to the hospital w/C.Diffs. Not a good couple of weeks for me. BUT anyhow, I cannot wait to hear about the Insanity Asylum DVD. Please review them and let us all know what you think. I'm trying not to buy things I really don't "need" but if it is awesome, I just might "need" it. :)
How is your running going?
Tiffany! ;-) I love that you said FURRY hahahah!! XOXOX
Glynis, how ARE you?? OMG I am so sorry about your sister!! And your dad OMG.....I'm praying for you right now.....
No shoes, no shirts, no problem...love that song! I'm ready for a beach vacation but I think we might skip Jamaica this year. But I did tell hubby last night we could get the vacay for 48% off and he might reconsider.
Ohh I did a drive by workout yesterday. I was dressed to hit the gym up with Kev (he wanted to go to Spin and Pilates for his b-day) but then he got sick at work so he came home. So I didn't get a workout in. Now today he is home and I need to get downstairs and do a workout. He'll have to just sleep through it ha ha
Storms are here, signing off.
Angie, I love that song too!! ;-) So gets me ready for vaca! And what IS with these storms??
Your talk about you not feeling like working out reminded me of a quote I saw a few days ago:
“The most important workout you do is the workout you don’t want to do.”
I think it’s a good quote and it’s great you did the workout.
(Being pretty new to your blog and vlogs, I don’t know what was written and said here in the past. So if I mentioned / am mentioning / will mention things/quotes/ideas/opinions etc. that have already been touched upon or even analyzed in detail here, I apologize for that.)
I am sorry to hear about the situation around you, Glynis. I hope things are going to improve for you soon.
Martin- what a great quote, and SO TRUE! Thanks also for your kind comment to Glynis. ;-)
Kelly,
The storms were awful last night. It's time for Spring already.
Martin,
LOVE that quote. I had never heard it and I need to get that printed out. Any idea who to give credit to for the quote?
Angie, I don’t know. I’ve seen several people mention the quote on the Internet, but always without the name of the author.
Nice, and thanks for sharing this info with us.Good Luck! tuptgp tuptgp - moncler netherlands.
