I am putting the finishing touches on the Team Voice Challenge. And it is going to be for the next 5 months. It's going to be crazy ,wild, and make you say WHAT THE....

I was on the boards this morning. I could not sleep well last night. I think I am excited about going to get my Mom,and we may have a new furry family member. We will know later today. :)

This month as been really hard for everyone. I know I am one of those. I am glad to have this month behind me and all the stress that came with this month. Looking ahead, August looks way better. I have a little more job security too.{whew}

Good bye July, no looking back, I am moving forward. Are you??

Steamy, and Rainy

I never made it to the gym last night to do my high cardio. So I got up this morning and I did it. I did 1 hour on the stair master. Level #2,floors 96, miles 2.02,calories 333. I wanted to go faster but I have to be mindful of the knees. If weather permitting, I plan on going out side to do 4 miles. I am doing double duty today.

I have had to wear my arm brace for the last 24 hours. My hand is acting up again. E said it would working the three days in a row. Well it has. Now I have to talk to my Manager to see if he can switch the next three days on the new schedule. :( No pain just tingling in the middle and index finger.

OK I am working on a challenge for Team Voice. This is going to be a bit different.But yet a Team Challenge for the next 5 months.As I get all the pieces put together, I will post it.

How is everyone doing?? Don't forget about the Corn Fun run coming up. I can't do the 10k, I have to do the 5k. It is at the beginning of my next three in a row.:(cursor:hand;"

I have to go and but new scrubs!! All my stuff is TOO BIG! Holy CATS!!!! I hope they have some with mickey on them. I will not feel right not wearing my Mickeys!!!
I will go in to shock!!! 12 hours and no Mickey Mouse, unheard of!!! :-0

Team Voice Many Goals, One Voice!!!

Yes there is a shortage of nurses out there.Good ones at that. They have to close the floor to bring it up to date. I know we are suffering for it. But what can I do but vent. I hope that we do not go job less. They said we can go to another floor till the construction is done. The Boss put up a list of where we would like to go. I am hoping for the er or recovery room. I will be going to the recovery room as of Monday to see if I like it. And I know I will and I hope they all like me. And maybe they will want to keep me. :)

Going Back To My Normal

Well I am done with my three day work week. Man I was so tried last night I fell asleep before ten. I have my new schedule for August and I have to do it again!!! :( and it is during the corn fun run!!!! :(

We have the house in order. The only thing is we are having a hard time finding twin beds!!! SO I have no beds for the one room!!!! :-*

Well FJ may have a job. We will know in a couple of days. Busting tables at a pizza place here. FINALLY!!!!!! :)




Exercise front, well I have been trying to keep up on the last three days. I did the resistance circuit training. Today I am going to try doing the high cardio sprints for 30 minutes and then do 30 minutes on the stair master.

I know I do not have to say listen to the show this week, I know everyone will. But when you do listen, keep and ear out for more Team Voice news. :)

Update Since Last

I know I Have not been keeping up the last little bit. My house is turned around. We are moving things around to move a family member in.last minute thing.

Plus the stress from the job, and teens I have been an emotional wreck. My food intake has been off, and exercising has been off to. Now I am hearing that we can suggest where we would like to go in the hospital from Nov. To Jan. Now I am worried not only having a job, but making it to the half. What if the other department won't give me the time off?

Yesterday I did the 5k loop on the dreadmill. I did it in 42 mintues by TM time and garmin time 43. Not to bad.then in the evening I did 2 miles in 26 mintues. Garmin time. Grand total 5 miles. That is really good for me. If I am not to worn out from worki will try again. I am on my three in a row.
Weigh in today. Just a half pound. That ok it still came off. So now I am at 200.5. Man this has been an tough road.

Ok gotta go.

What The.......

Well what a day.



Yesterday I did my running sprints. 6.0 by the dreadmill, and the Garmin was reading 6.3. for one hour. 30 seconds on, and 20 off. I made it to 37:30, and I just could not run anymore,my legs were like jelly. So I walked the rest. speed 3.4 on the dreadmill, Garmin 3.8. I haven't downloaded it yet. I burned 767 in calories yesterday. Today was off. My right foot has a bump on it. E found it yesterday. It doesn't bother me. I was thinking of having it checked out.

Today we pulled up carpet, scrub walls for painting,man it was tiring.



I am glad to see all the great things happening around the Disney blogging land.Matt is loosing weight,Chris is still running, Mike is back out there.Jon,Big J, well he is having a hard time. He just has to get up dust off and Keep Moving Forward!!!! Jeff W. you too. There is nothing you all can do about what has happened. But you can control what is Going to happen tomorrow. :)

I was under a lot of stress yesterday from work. My floor has moved to a smaller unit.And found out we will be there till Jan!!!! Then I get sent home early,and after I get home I find out, that the small unit we are on now maybe closed in November, and if they have a place to put us they will place us. What ?! Are you Kidding me!?!?!
I could be job less?!?! Holy S---T!! I mean Cats!!!So I had went over my calories!!! I felt bad but didn't care and did it anyway. Stress eating is bad:( But I owned it and I have moved on from it.

The Wall..

I set out yesterday to do 10 miles. I ended up doing 8.2 miles in 2:21. I hit the wall at mile 6. I got the shakes and felt funny. So I had to slow down. We stopped at the corner store And I got a G2. After I had that I started to feel better. SO E and I have decided to get back outside, on my off days of training from Isabeau. I need to get used to the humidity. It is not as bad as it was earlier, but it is there. Today I have to do 1 hour of High cardio today. I can choose from stair master, fast sprints, or hill sprints. I have noticed that she has shorten the time I am off resting now. More running.

I am sore today too.
Check out Craig's blog. He posted numbers from Magic Meets. Running Disney.
And a A great big Holy Cats to Mike For loosing all that weight.And Matt has found what is working for him. He is loosing too!!!! :)

I hope everyone is having a great weekend!!!

This Week

I have not been posting the last few days. I have been busy with work. Work is us up a bit. My floor is moving to the 2ND floor, and the 2ND floor is moving to my floor, 4Th. And we are only going to have 25 rooms!!!!! What Are you kidding me?!?!?! So that means we will be floating like it is closed. They are renovating part of the 2ND floor, and we get to hear all the noise and stuff. :(
So I called the Or manager, and asked if they could use me there for a while. I had a friend of mine refer me. I hope I can get in . Then I won't float everywhere. Even if it is temporary.

I have been doing my exercises and I have received my new workout and I started that on Thursday. Today is a rest day. But We are trying to get out the door and put in ten today. It was raining this morning and it is steaming hot right now. So we are going to try later this afternoon.

I weighed in today. I lost 1 pound. 201. I am just hanging on to the 200 just a week longer. I can not wait to get out of it!!!! 199 here I come!!! I have uniform pants I am not alowed to wear to work anymore, since they are way to big, and I can wear some I haven't wore in 2 years. And Yesterday My boss said my Mickey scrub tops are getting to big and I have to retire them. Why?? When I lean over, you can see down the top of it. Even with a under shirt. What no Mickey tops!!! :-*

I can not wait to do the 10k. Staying at the all stars? and After the race they are having the International Food and wine picnic breakfast! I can not wait!!! I am looking to up grade my black berry. But I want one that I can use a a modem so I won't have to pay for internet.

I can't wait to hear how Jonathan did on his trip. Hmmmm......

My fall on the dread mill was not painful. I did not hurt anything. I do have a skined knee. I am glad it was me not one of my kids. We all have been training for the 10k.

Still waiting on my foot pod for my garmin....
