Men who give blood have a 30% less chance of heart attacks. Men do not need extra iron and when they give blood it lowers their blood iron level. It's a gift of life for the giver and the givee! Cheryl

Okay, now I'm feeling badly; my daughters are great and I love them dearly. Cheryl

Females in my family?! With four daughters and the ever dreaded fear of getting anything on the hands just may be the reason we have this toilet paper delemia. Cheryl

I hear you on the beds. The toilet paper thing has always baffled me because as a kid I used to love changing the roll. Genetic mutation I guess. And yes, life is good if that is my big complaint. Cheryl

I ask myself this question every other day. I am I the only one who can change a roll of toilet paper in this house? I am constantly amazed to find empty rolls left on countertops in all three bathrooms. The empty rolls don't even make it to the garbage! My family can go weeks just rolling...

I certainly did not explain myself in the Blaaah post as to what a Chinook is. My family is continually reminding me that they can't read my mind! Here goes, according to Wikipedia: "A Chinook wind (is) where the Canadian Prairies and Great Plains end and the mountains begin...In popular...

Probiotics are also very helpful when you get sick. I went to a natural pracitioner and she said she always upped her probiotic dose to get more good stuff in her system to fight the bad stuff off. Sara, you are right about the ears. Be sure not to take probiotics with aniboitics, because the...

Does shaking them when they come out of the dryer count? My mother was and still is an ironing freak. She used to make us iron everything! I remember we used to fight over the pillow cases because they were an easy rectangle. I hate ironing to this day. Cheryl

I will pray that you have strength to get through this. Seeing loved ones suffer is difficult. When you love deep, the worry can be intense. Hang in there! Cheryl

Thanks for some burned calories. I need a belly laugh a day. Cheryl

You should have told them to watch Bambi and pay particular attention to a little furry rabbit. I tell my kids that if you have to break down another person you need to look inside yourself to see what is broken in you. I'm sorry for your friend, but how wonderful to have a friend like...

I count myself one of the lucky ones this winter; living in Idaho we have not been hit with the snow like you Easterners. You have had a winter!!! We have dirty smelly gray inversions. I miss the sun and will be glad to breathe some fresh air. Growing up in Alberta, I really miss those cold...

Sounds tempting!! I love to feel like I've climbed a mountain after I'm done a workout. What exactly is the format, mostly army type drills? Cheryl

I have it and I love it! In fact I just did the 80 minute workout today. Those drills get me every time. I still have to keep my step to 6 inches. Maybe I'll get brave next time and hike it to the dreaded 8 inch. The workout can be confusing at first because she doesn't break the step...

Dang!! I just read that girl scout cookies are now free of trans-fats! Now I have no excuse not indulge in those blasted thin mints! I sense a marketing genius at work. Cheryl

I can't find my PUB!!! I put it in a box in the garage to save space and now it has gone missing!!! (On the upside----no pikes for me!!) Chery

No wonder you are so smart!!!! 50 years of knowledge!!! Happy Birthday and go get yourself some good organic 70% chocolate. I'm so sorry about your kitties but have a feeling there will be a furry one in your future. I appreciate your insights and willingness to share what you have in that...

I say if you only had a couple of malt balls; pat yourself on the back. We all have days like this. Sometimes all we can do is take it an hour at a time. Cheryl

You need to stretch those tight muscles!! I cannot believe how much better my back is when I incorporate yoga and pilates in my DAILY workouts. Also, if you have a stability ball, do backbends over the top and supermans on your stomach. Do these every day and I know you will see a difference...

I can graze better than you can. Cheryl
