How much time do you have available each day? Debbie Russo

I am thankful that in 31 years of a wonderful marriage to the most amazing man, we have managed to be invited out every single year for Thanksgiving :eek: That's right! I have never ever prepared Thanksgiving dinner. Initially between my family and his, there was this alternating thing...

I had a complete hysterectomy 7 years ago, the day before my 46th birthday. Crashing into instant menopause was an unbelievable nightmare for me. I suffered for almost 10 months with night sweats (up to 13 soaking sweats per night), night terrors, hot flashes, stomach pains and nausea...

I am 53 and my husband is 55. We have been working out with cathe since Mega Step circa 1992? We were using Step Reebok - remember "The hardest workout on the planet?". Well, after the first go round with Mega Step we immediately renamed it Mega Death. I never thought that I would make it...

I think they did a great job on the packaging, however I wish I could have had an option to get individual cases. I store my workouts on an open bookshelf by type of workout - heavy weights, HIIT, Step, Yoga, etc. Then when I plan my weekly rotation I pull the individual workouts that I am...

I ordered the "sample" system from the WEN website. wenhaircare.com I was really on the fence trying to decide whether or not to give this product a go. The kit included a 12oz pump of almond mint cleansing conditioner, the styling creme, moist intensive hair treatment, styling balm and a comb...

I agree, I think plyo legs is one of Cathe's all time "bestest" creations. Lately I have been eliminating the weight portion and doing 2 or 2 1/2 of the workouts back-to-back as one of my HIIT days. I love the vertical movements of jumping on and off the bench. I just FF through the weight...

So yesterday my husband and I were watching the re-run of the first episode of the Walking Dead - imo one of the best shows on TV. The male characters were complaining that as they were trying to pack survival gear the women were packing sentimental items like family photos. I said "...

Dela, You might want to do some research on Gastric Reflux Disease. The fact that you are feeling these symptoms after a heavy meal or rich dessert goes hand-in-hand with Reflux. The "fluttering" or spasms of the diaphram can mimic the feel of a heart palpitation. I have a mild hiatal...

Pam, Oh I am such an antique...of course sending stuff on line eliminates the dreaded "staple at the top" vs. "paper-clip" dilemma. Ah... Solves the problem. Thanks so much for your advice. Debbie Russo

Hi, I think we have some HR professionals on this site, if you don't mind offering a little advice I would really appreciate it. I am helping a friend's daughter who has just graduated with a BS in nutrition. She is applying for an intership and must submit a resume along with her...

I used to exercise in my living room and I know what a pain hauling out weights can be. I bought a huge wicker basket and put my dumbbells in it. I then covered the weights with a throw and some pillows. No one ever suspected that there was a couple hundred pounds of weights beneath such cute...

I am looking for Algae-based DHA omega-3 supplements. I have not be able to find them at any of my local health food stores (including Whole Foods). For those of you who order on-line, can you recommend a reputable vendor? And does any one have experience with the algae-based product...

Hi, You will not be disappointed in a Seattle area vacation. I lived on Bainbridge Island, just across the sound from Seattle, for almost a year. I loved it. Seattle is an amazing city - and Pikes Market Area could take up an entire day. The vendors are so unique, the produce, the flowers...

They are as good as they sound :) In a blender combine: 3 cups seedless watermelon chunks 1 cup lime juice 2 cups coconut rum 3 Tbs granulated sugar 1/2 cup mint leaves pulse several times - be careful not to blend too long on a high speed or you will end up the mojito foam (I...

Watermelon Mojitos with the glass edge rimmed in crushed pop-rocks candy! Very surprising drink. Home-made carmelized onion dip with veggies Mango/Avocado Guacamole with baked corn tortillas Pork Tenderloin marinated (overnight) in a chipotle/garlic/lime dressing Grill Corn Chopped...

I work out because at 53 years old I feel 30..... I feel 30 years old at 53 because I work out.:D

Don't forget that in the 70's bathrooms were not what they are today. It was very rare for a middle income family to have a house with a powder room, master bathroom or guest bath. Most homes just had one bathroom. I remember going to a friend's house in the early 70's and her parents had...

What about Caroline Ingalls on Little House??? She had 4 kids (remember Albert - what a trouble maker), she chopped wood, plowed the fields, made their clothing, hitch and un-hitched the wagon, raised chickens, substituted for the school marm, made bread from scratch everyday, washed clothing...

Gabrielle - How about something that you cannot buy in Milan? I don't know where in AZ you are, but what about something native American? Basketry, silver jewelry? Second, I think you should contact your friend (or her mother). Often the years just melt away. If she doesn't want to see...
