RE: Have the Timesaver - do I *need* the original worko... Thanks for the advice. I think I will order them. I love to follow Cathe's rotations and I'm kind of a "rule follower" - I like to do the exact workouts she says rather than feel like I'm missing something by not owning the "right"...

I'm gradually trying to buy all of Cathe's DVDs. I bought the Timesaver awhile ago, and so many rotations call for SJP, KPC, etc. that I was wondering if I should shell out and buy the original w/o's. How much of KPC & SJP are missing on the Timesaver DVD? - Sarah

Hi Badgers, I've been away from the boards for most of the week. My DH and I got food poisoning at a BBQ on Sunday. We believe we were poisoned by (drumroll) . . . flan. Someone brought homemade flan and it's the only thing my DH and I both ate that our son (thank god) didn't. We were...

Hi Everyone, Happy Friday, whoohooo!!! Laurie - Good luck with your party this weekend. I was in the same boat last weekend. It was clean, clean, clean, cook, cook, cook. This weekend I'm taking it easy! Tacos sound great though - and I'm totally with you on the store doing all the work...

Hi! It looks like a beautiful day out there to me, too. Hope everyone enjoys it. Last night was PLB and then 200 walking lunges. I was fried. I must say the Pyramid videos are not my faves. SO many reps of each exercise. Kinda has a dread factor for me. Laurie - have fun at Texas...

Thank you, everyone! Thanks for the opinions, everyone. Vacuums are one consumer good that it seems like you get what you pay for. Sigh. We have a place around here that sells Orecks, I think I will check it out. Thank you, Catheites! - Sarah

Thanks for the Oreck recommendations. Do you two have a particular model to recommend? I looked at their website, and yep - they are pricey, but I might be willing to pay for quality this time. - Sarah

I have mostly hardwood floors with some carpet. I have a cat. I get dustballs, hairballs, etc. I like to use a vacuum to really suck it up. My canister vacuum pooped out this weekend. Does anyone have a canister or other vacuum they would recommend for hardwood? I like the canister with brush...

Oh, and I forgot to add my workout. I did PUB and then instead of the 20 minute run in the rotation I did 20 minutes of the hi/lo from MIC. I was pooped. - Sarah

Good morning, Laurie - wow, a teen in the house! I hope she has a nice birthday. I hope her teen years are happy and angst-free :-) Sounds like you did a great job picking out her shoes. Job well done, Mom. I had to laugh yesterday because my son was sick all last week and missed preschool...

Hi everyone, I've been away for a few days. My DS was sick last week with an ear infection, so I was off work tending to him. Then he had his birthday party Saturday and I had a house full of people, kids, out of town family, etc. It was a dino theme party and the kids had fun with slime...

Hi everyone! Wow, Laurie. Imax3 and 200 walking lunges. Good for you! I might NEED a beer to make that w/o sound appealing! :-) Have fun with your friends! Marie - hope your mouth problems get better soon! Just the thought of shots in the mouth area gives me the willies. My DH had a root...

Hi everyone, Yes, it was VERY brisk on the way to work this morning. Brrrr! Last night was Cardio & Weights. That's such a fun workout. I love the music and the step routines are just plain fun! The ab work kills me too. My in-laws live about 5 1/2 hours away too, and I agree with...

Happy Spring! Yesterday I did PS Legs & Abs, then the KickMax Blast section. Man, that is tough. I love the part where she says that the tucks in the last blast are easier than the ones that came earlier, where you curl your legs back instead of tucking up. Yeah, um, not so easy. That's a...

Hi Everyone, Last night was Imax 1 for me. Laurie - Swim birthday party sound fun for your kids. My son's birthday is next week and we're having a party at our house. He turns 5. I'm kind of stressed out about the party since I'm not a big domestic goddess person, but we'll see how it...

Thanks, Marie. I'm going to see if our Pick and Save has the crab she used and what our selection of frozen pie crusts is like. Sounds like your DH really loved it! That's always nice :-) Sarah

Marie - do you use frozen pie crust? Just curious! - Sarah

Thanks, Laurie - for the recommendation and the tip. I'm seriously thinking about giving this quiche thing a whirl! Wish me luck! - Sarah

Morning, ladies! Jill - wow, lucky kids with snow days! I don't think we're supposed to get all that much snow here, I think it's mostly south of us, which is fine with me. Big March snows are always a bummer to me. Laurie - I'm glad your daughter wasn't TOO brutal with her eyelashes. I'm...

Yes, this sounds like a great, slightly fancy dinner. Something out of the ordinary. I'm going to try it with a store crust, see how it tastes. Thanks again for the recipe & idea. I never go looking for recipes, so I really welcome it when it's dropped in my lap! Cheers! - Sarah
