Last time I posted I said I would be out of town for the weekend. Well, we left on Thur. afternoon and got back late Fri. night -- my son broke out in chicken pox

and we had to end the weekend rather abruptly.

So looks like I'll be able to watp between oatmeal baths and covering him in calamine lotion.

Have a good weekend all!

Vickie - Sorry to hear your weekend got cut short but on the good side you'll be able to walk lol

Poor guy. How old is he? I don't have any clue what age to expect my girls getting chicken pox lol.

Have a good night!
Michelle

If you run out of calamine lotion. Baking soda paste works wonders to stop the itch.

ellis · 06-12-2004, 08:28 AM

Wow, it's HOPPING in here!!

Thanks for the supportive words, Lucia.

And congratulations on the exercise! Yard work counts! It really works muscles we don't normally use.

Michelle... a cross-bow trainer! How cool!

Welcome, Donna! (I think I know you... you sound familiar. South Beach? Alternachicks?

)

Vicki, I hope your little love is feeling better soon.

Oatmeal baths are GREAT!

Both of our children had what looked like chicken pox when they were young (at different times), but they had it very mildly and for only about 2 or 3 days. I have no idea if that's what they really had, but I HOPE so!

Cathy and Jack, keep it up, you exercise fiends, you!!

Oh. I forgot about me... I did about 4 miles yesterday.

mrs.beasley · 06-12-2004, 11:13 AM

Thanks for the well wishes everyone.
My son is 10 yrs. old so at least he's old enough to understand not to scratch. He's had an oatmeal bath and is covered in calamine lotion and just took some benadryl -- he should be sound asleep soon.

We were planning on getting the chicken pox immunization in the next couple of weeks -- oh well!

Michelle -- congratulations on becoming a moderator. You'll do a great job -- I'm sure.

Good day all!

MichelleRae · 06-12-2004, 12:21 PM

Thanks so much Vickie!!!

Aww the poor darlin must just be dying for a good back scratch

that benedryl will knock anyone out lol I get benedryl and imitrex IV drips when I get a migraine and they just knock me on my butt lol. Well I guess you need not be bothered with the immunization now lol.

Have a great day

Michelle

I cleaned house for 6 hours today, so no WATP, it is all I can do to stay on my feet for that long. Hopefully I will get in a walk tomorrow.

Michelle - CONGRATS on Moderator! that's awesome!

cathyxxx · 06-12-2004, 03:59 PM

LOL Jack! if moving my tv counted as weights I would move that thing every day! LOL that would be so much easier then 2 sets of 15s or 3 sets of 10s LOL

Jack do you ever take a day off from exercise or do you exercise every day?

DonnaD · 06-13-2004, 11:19 AM

good morning guy and gals

Have a banger of a headache. Was up until 3am. when dh is away I don't sleep well. The headache started then and I woke up with it. Only did 1 mile
on the

I'd much rather do WATP, because I hate the tread, but knew I wouldn't be able to today. 1mile is better than none. If I feel better later maybe I try something else

Vicky, Hope the little guy feels more comfortable soon. Yrs ago when my oldest was 9 he got them and like clock work, 2wks later the 5 yr old and 2 wks later the 4 yr old. The pox get worse with each case and the little one looked horrible. In his ears, mouth...everywhere. Poor kid was miserable.

Michelle, Congrats

Ellis, Yeah, I'm hooked on Scotch and Humor.

Cathy, If I ever did 6 hrs of cleaning in my house(which is not well maintained, I hate cleaning) I'd probably find Jimmy Hoffa.

Jack, I've got a lot to lose and I'm afraid to work with weights. But I think its great what it's done for you. Maybe some day. When I was younger and thinner I tried a trial membership at a gym and loved lifting, but that was only 10 days and a lot of yrs and POUNDS ago.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend. ttyl

cathyxxx · 06-13-2004, 12:14 PM

Good Morning Gang!

I did a 45 minute 3 mile WATP tape w/weights this mornings (and then some situps too). So that is 3 more miles.

June = 22 miles

Donna - I sure hope your headache gets better! It is so hard to exercise when you have a headache! I'm proud of you for doing a mile like that!

Hope everybody has a blessed day!

Cathy

MichelleRae · 06-13-2004, 06:39 PM

You are all doing wonderful!!! Keep up the hard work!!! No WATP for me today but I cleaned for 7 hours straight and I'm counting 1.5 hours of it for my exercise for today.

Donna - hope you are feeling better!

Cathy - Girl you are slammin!! Keep it up!!

Michelle

Lucia-1 · 06-13-2004, 11:19 PM

Hi Everyone,
Have just been catching up with the posts, and I can see you are exercising like crazy, well done!
I now have a total of 3 miles (better get my feet moving if I'm going to achieve my goal of 30 for the month

), but am also doing quite a bit of outdoor work which involves digging and lifting, so I'm thinking that will help burn some fat also

.
Will catch up with you soon,
Lucia

cathyxxx · 06-14-2004, 09:46 AM

Good Morning Gang!

I did another 30 minute 2 mile WATP tape w/weights this morning!

that makes 24 miles for June.

next?

jules02 · 06-14-2004, 07:00 PM
