    dirty knees....don't look at these

    HA HA ! Did you think you were going to see some skin??? Just kidding! On a more serious note: I have cleaned homes and worked out on my knees (doing table work)for years. I have noticed a spot on each knee where the skin is just slightly darker. I am assuming it's from being on my knees...

    blueberries

    So I go to the local produce market every week. They have these luscious blueberries. I can't resist. I freely sprinkle them on my plain oatmeal in the a.m. Finally I pull them up on the net and find the calorie content etc. Wow! 21 carbs in just 1 cup of raw blueberries. I think that's a lot...

    freestyle and the firm vol. 1 w/ Susan Harris

    My goal is to look lean and tone. I know that clean eating is a major part. In the past I have done the firm vol. 1 w/ 3,5 and 8 # dumbells. Would you consider the frim vol. 1 a good freestyle w/out due to the fact that she does so many reps per exercise and that you can use whatever free...

    My SIL invited me to go hiking. She wouldn't tell me where we were going. Well we went to Usery Park and hiked a trail called Wind Cave which is 1.6 miles. The park was only 10-12 miles down the road from where I live. As we are hiking up she points out lots of different things, looks at every...
