Today, we did a lot of yard work, mowing pulling and weed whacking. My arms hurt real bad right now because the weed whacker is heavy and used it for too long in one go. I wanted to do my Callanetics stretches but I can't now. Yesterday I bought a new heart rate monitoring watch that I do not need a chest strap for. It works great since I tried it yesterday and did the healthrider for 20 minutes.

I have slacked off this summer with the cardio since it has been so terribly hot. But a couple weeks ago I switched to doing stretching instead and working my muscles. 

Callanetics by Callan Pinckney you can google her it's amazing what she has done and her personal history is fascinating.

After I started doing searches I found this lady as well and her work inspired me to try Callanetics...

I am following her on Facebook and I am slowly doing the stretches from Callanetics... I LOVE IT. I am too fat to do some of the stretches properly but most of it is easy, slow and you hold the poses for 100 seconds. Your muscles relax and give in when they are ready. You go at your own pace. I only do it 2 times a week until I am good at it and it is comfortable then I can do them every day if I want to but she recommends just a few times a week really. It works the deep down inner muscle and it transforms your body most effectively. 

Later on today at supper time I will be real tired. When I come home around 9am I will try and get caught up in here and say hi some folks just because I need a distraction from the stress.

I have more kids in the morning now like 16 so I have to get there early this time to make sure I have the janitor put down a table for me so all the kids can sit properly. Also I am getting a 2nd staff member to be with me in the mornings which I have NEVER had. (16-18 kids now in the am.) So today is the first day of chaos and it is a trial run so the parents better be nice to me and the office staff as well dagnabbit. 

Have a great day and Holly I will catch up with you a later this morning if you are awake if not... maybe another day!!

Two resign from Cary Park District after cited for obscene conduct 

By CRYSTAL LINDELL - clindell@nwherald.com 

CARY – Two high-level Cary Park District officials have resigned after being accused of engaging in obscene conduct at Fox Bluff Conservation Area. Stephen Cherveny, the former executive director, and Susan Mayer, the former superintendent of recreation, both were charged July 2 by the McHenry County Conservation District. According to the complaint, Cherveny, 48, of 774 Blazing Star Trail, Cary; and Mayer, 37, of 619 Kings Bridge Drive, Carol Stream, were at Fox Bluff, on Algonquin Road and Cold Springs Road in Cary about 5:40 p.m. when they were charged. The tickets stated that the two were engaging in obscene/sexual conduct in public. The case has been resolved, and both pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct and admitted to being loud in the park. They each were given 100 days supervision and asked to pay $216 fines. Both resigned from the Park District about two weeks ago, said Bill Harvey, president of the Cary Park District Board. He declined to comment on the disorderly conduct charges and said both left the park district to pursue other opportunities. Harvey also said the two received resignation packages, but the details of those packages were not immediately available Friday. Representatives from Donahue and Walsh – the law firm that represented the pair, did not return a call for comment Friday. The park is district in the midst of hiring Cherveny’s replacement, and Harvey said the board planned to let whomever was chosen decide whether he or she wanted to hire a new superintendent of recreation.

I guess it was beyond them to get a room at a hotel or go somewhere private. EEEEWE I used to sit at the Christmas parties with hi

m and chat.
