[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Night Thread : Once, during my (one) track season in HS, I was supposed to be aqua jogging. I got bored and irritated and just swam. And then I was sorry I swam because I had an injured shoulder (which was why I was doing track in the first place). BUT IT WAS SO BORING. I'm glad you like it though. Ha.

It's how I destroyed mine. I always laugh when people say you can't get injured swimming.

The cross country boys used to come in to water jog in the diving well during girls swim practice. Fun times

Also, a lot of the activities on the Fit don't require the board, so if she has the game, she can do some of the activities.

Y'all are putting me in the mood to do the Fit right now, but...yeah. That's not going to happen. I'll just exercise by walking and getting that bowl of ice cream now.

Oh, I'm not Liz, at all. But he makes me feel so guilty for not wanting to work out when I know I want the results that would come from it. I'm like, he can go do this for hours, and after one I'm ready to hit the couch, lol.

I didn't know your H was a lawyer. What kind of law does he practice? FI was always really active as well, but other than law school, he's had a lot of personal stuff going on, so I see why he fell out of it. I think he'll get back into it soon though.

I love the Labrynth.

Guys, I don't know what to do with Box Kitty. She's started twitching again, and the neuro wants us to give her her meds 3x a day instead of 2 and see if that helps. The problem is that it's not possible for us to give her her meds 3x a day most days. To top it off, we leave for vacation in 18 days, and we don't know ANYONE that can give her her meds at all while we're gone. We still don't even know for sure where she'll be. I'm so stressed about it.

I had a coupon for $15 off any bra, and a $10 VS bucks that they give you during your birthday month, and a coupon for a free hiphugger undie.

So I come out with one bra, one eyeliner, and one undie for under $3. Crazy, stuff!

calixtine · July 2012

By the time I get to the gym, it's almost 6 if I want to eat at a decent hour the most I can do is 1 hour. I was doing really well with doing both weights and cardio but then I got out of the rountine. I am at least fairly consistent with doing cardio during the week.

We're pretty sure that boarding her would turn her into a complete basket case. She doesn't do well anywhere but home.

LeiselEB · July 2012

J, I'm sorry. Is boarding her an option? I know it wouldn't be my first choice, but if that's the way she can get her meds while you're gone, it might be worth it.

Is there anyone that could come to your house and give Box Kitty her medicine while you guys are at work if she needs to add that third dose?

<div>He's not. He knew his first year of law school that he never wanted to practice law, and in the middle of his third year his girlfriend of 5 years went seriously psycho, so he just dropped out and moved back home to get away from her. Kinda sucks that we're paying his loans for it now, but for the cost it'd take to go back and finish, he might as well go get halfway through a degree in something he actually wants to do, lol.</div>

We had her over for her to try to do it, and Box Kitty tried to bite her hand off. Needless to say, she isn't terribly keen on doing it for a week, and I don't blame her.

She's 4. And she didn't used to be like this. She was FINE until after our HM. After our HM, she changed so much, and then she started having these issues. It's so frustrating.
