    The Kite Runner

    This is one of my all time favorites! I just picked up a new book that is another "can't put it down, house falling apart" kind of books. Just thought I'd pass it on, The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. It's great from page 1!! Tina

    OMG - pet peeve

    Just a note of how our children pick up on these phrases very quickly. I grew up with an Irish mom and I remember her always saying in her accent, "Jeezus Krrrrist" and "Jeezus, Mary and Josefff" at any of lifes stressors. Unfortunately these became reflex phrases for me under the same...

    The Runaway Bride

    I feel sorry for her. Obviously she has a mental illness, either pre-exsisting, or brought on by medication or stress. The family has illuded to issues they were not aware of. Before everyone judges her, it would be wise to wait and hear the rest of the story unfold. I've recently met a...

    Statue in HC

    I've been waiting to see this posted so I wouldn't be the one to bring it up, but the statue off to the left in the background, is that a severed head? It looks like, to me, a bust and head up until the nose. My big screen TV just died and never had a good picture, so I thought it was just...

    Tension headaches

    Hi Bobbi, Just a shot in the dark, but did you discuss a tricylic antidepressant? I have Trigeminal Neuralgia, which is nerve pain in the jaw. It also causes me extreme headaches and tinitus. I take Amitriptyline in a very small dosage along with Neurontin, which is a anti-seizure...

    Anyone NOT like High Step Challenge?

    Wow, I'm surprised there isn't a love fest going on over this workout. It's my favorite next to Imax 3. I love them all actually but HSC just wipes me out. It reminds me of the old Firms in the way I feel spent after, huge sweat factory. I need to lose weight, so I'm doing this workout twice...

    Pets

    We have two parakeets, Shelby and Dory. Two very fluffy cats, Charlie and Molly. AND a Wheaten Terrier named Chole. She is the baby of the family. I'd have more pets but I've been threatened with divorce if one more pet enters the house. SOOOO, anytime we have a school vacation or summer...

    Breakthrough bleeding and Exercise

    I'm not on BC, but I do have this phenomenon happen with any really intense exercise, especially jogging or long distance biking. I've had all the test imanginable, and everything turned out okay. My OBGYN said she has many patients that this occurs and mostly in long distance runners. She...

    How Do You Like the Band?

    Am I the first to post a band accident? Last night I did High Step Challenge (which was, of course, excellent.) and when it came time for the t-bar rows, the one where you sit on the floor and put the band under your toes (word of caution here: point your toes during this whole set!!!) and then...

    I've just been diagnosed with colon cancer

    Joyce, I second the recommendation to read Lance Armstrong's book, It's Not About the Bike. It's a great read and very inspiring. Just know you're in eveyones thoughts. You have an excellent support system right here, and I'm sure there are excellent support groups near you. I'm a firm...

    what is your least favorite household chore?

    Laundry. I never seem to be caught up. I swear the hamper breeds overnight. My kids are forever looking for socks, when it seems just yesterday I put 20 pairs away the day before. I joined the FLYLADY email program, where they send you little messages thoughout the day. "Where's your...
