Jes, God bless your brave and noble brother, God bless your family. For all the blustering of our "fearless leaders" throughout this war, it is your brother and the brave men and women in the military who are truly the fearless leaders. You are all in my prayers. Julie

Oh of course we have all done this! Let the guilt go. You got what you wanted, you look great, you bought quality and frankly you deserve it. (I am a Lancome girl myself when it comes to lipstick.) And let's be truthful, don;t you look and feel fabulous when you put these colors on your...

Hey all thought I would share my work out this a.m. - Push Pull and I pushed the weights up to really feel it (good to do since the sets are short). Then Baron Baptiste Journey Into Power 2 yoga tape. 1.5 hours total(a miracle for me to go that long in the a.m.). And it was a great combo -...

Thanks Cathe and everyone who replied. I am feeling better but taking it sllloooooowwwwwly back. Easy to know to rest when high fever strikes, but low grade I get confused. It is always about listening to the body isn't it?

Hi Cathe and hope you are well. I have been running a low grade fever since Friday am, along with a head cold. Not too bad and medication helps. However, still feel a bit feverish so am bagging the cardio. Did some good yoga yesterday because I was feeling so stiff(even a head stand and a...

I am praying for you that her transition is peaceful, and that you and your family are at peace together as well. Julie

Dear Annette I am praying for you and your family to face this terrible time as one strong unit bonded by the love you feel for your mother and each other. My four siblings and I lost our Mom on September 5th, and I can tell you that it was as heartbreaking as it was beautiful - we were...

I have been keen on organic stuff for awhile. I switched shampoos at my hair stylist's recommendation to one that has no Sodium Laurel Sulfate, which is a detergent, is not organically derived, and strips your hair of color. Once I switched, my hair color stopped going so red/brassy on me...

Well you really are human Cathe! I was beginning to wonder.... (how does she do it all? Must be superpowers....) I will keep positive thoughts for you as you heal. All the best. Julie

Thanks Sparrow. Funny you should mention whole wheat. Althogh I have eaten it my whole life, I noticed last week that the cold sweats were bad after I had munched both night on carby snacks - whoole grain pretzels, some cinnamon grahams. Thought perhaps there is a connection. I know we can...

Hey there all and Happy New Year. I have been plagued with major cold sweats at night - not hot sweats a la menopause but cold clammy excessive wake me up in the night and dehydrate me cold sweats. OB said my blood tests do not show drop in estrogen so perimenopause likely out. It affects my...

Melissa what good news and a very good reminder to us all. I had my annual mammogram yesterday (do it every Christmas)and must add a funny aside. The woman performing my mammo actually said, "You have very dense breasts, and so muscular!!" Nice to be reminded at such a moment that indeed them...

Oh dear Nancy. I work in NYC, lived here for 14 years and was subway addicted. Thank goodness this is not affecting me directly. However, I am in my office in Times Square and it is ghost town central, just battled the traffic to hoof it 15 blocks to go shopping. Can't get messenger service...

OK girl - from one Mommmy to another may I advise that first you get the kids sleeping through the night problem under control? All good workouts, fitness gains and sanity will follow. Get thee online to amazon.com or to a book store and buy The Baby Whisperer and The Toddler Whisperer. They...

Yes indeed, and let me also add the pictures of the Hurricane Katrina victims still living in tents,hanging lights and decorations outside to make the holidays a bit brighter for their loved ones. We are so blessed aren't we? Happy holidays to you!

1. Above all the health of my DH and my two DDs and my Dad who got a clean bill of health post cancer. 2. Sadness leading to miracles: my mother's passing reconnecting us with her cousins who live 10 minutes from my brother and are spending the holidays with us. (and they are so...

My miracle message fro the day. Shelly I needed to be reminded of the true spririt of giving as I agonize over what to stuff the stockings with. So I am going to ask Santa to guide me so that my daughters have as kind and loving a heart as your daughter does. You are one special Mom. Peave...

Mary my thoughts and prayers are with you. I lost my mom to a very very serious stomach cancer in September. My Dad had cancer at the same time and is doing great. Everyone is correct that ovarian cancer is very curable. Sorry this is so long but want to share my knowledge. First go to...
