    Would you apologize?

    I would not apologize. I work in health care and cannot understand the educated people who smoke.In Canada you cannot smoke in a public building and have to be at least twenty feet away from the entrance of a building to smoke.

    Chronicals of Narnia?

    I read the whole book and I don't think it makes a difference. Mind you I read it a long time ago. I found it in storage a while ago and sent it to my 10 year old neice who loved it. I can't wait for the movie. It should have some neat special effects. Sharon

    Have you ever had

    Yes I've had a hip flexor strain. The physiotherapist showed me exercises to stretch this area. One is called the clam (that's what she called it) You lay down on your side with your knees flexed and lift the top knee up and down then switch sides. It hurts initially but it eventually stretches...

    I can't believe this workout. I did it on Wednesday and my triceps are just starting to feel better. What a workout. I did GS legs today and complained through that workout too! Sharon I don't think I will ever be able to do pushups on my toes!

    I have to say I've been lucky. My Sony 5 disc player has been great.I got it for Christmas this year and it plays all the hardcore DVD's beautifully. My DVD's came from CK sales so they travelled from Cathe's place to Alberta then cross country to Northern Ontario without a scratch. Sorry to...

    power 90x

    How many push-ups?? Hello, I watched chest and back today and wondered how in the heck am I going to do all those push-ups. I couldn't even wrap my brain around the pull-ups. I did the cardio portion today and found it okay. That was after I did power hour. I hope I like the rest. Sharon
