    Stimulus Tax Schedule

    Thanks for that link. I was thinking they were sending out all of the online rebates yesterday - and I didn't get mine. I should have known it would take a little longer. Carolyn

    Scrimping $$$ in order to *wildly* splurge!

    I splurge on exercise equipment, exercise clothes, exercise dvd's, etc. You get the picture. :) Oh, and I splurge on food from veganessentials.com a lot. It sounds like you had a fabulous weekend. I sure do miss Tyson's Corner. Nothing I have found in Germany even comes close to that mall...

    Phobias anyone?

    So for the past, I don't know, 18 years or so I've had an intense fear of giving blood. Not necessarily the needle part, just the blood sucking part. :) It stems from an incident in which I passed out after having to fast. It happened just as they were draining me. :P Since then, I have passed...

    RE: 'Friend' Rant Thanks TeTe! Great advice, of course! I guess what I want is to be valued as a friend. To be honest, I find it tough to have female friends. There always seems to be a 'frienemy' thing going on and I'm just sick of it. I have found myself avoiding people because of this. I...

    Is this doable?

    JodiJodi- Maybe I should invest in some popsicle molds from Amazon! I haven't really found a lot here (but I am in Germany and Germans don't do a lot of frozen food). And you should convince your sister to post here! Sisters unite!!:P (ok I'm in a really weird mood I guess!) Carolyn

    Is this doable?

    Hi Amy! What a fun treat! I've never thought of using tea as a popsicle! It makes sense that you would since you're such a tea-hound!:P Did you use the special tea from Teavana? And you're right, the shot glass popsicles looked super cute. I think the picture I saw was of a cranberry/vanilla...

    Is this doable?

    So I've been thinking of whipping up some spring/summer treats and I came across a picture of a frozen treat in a shot glass. I'm thinking they put the stuff (smoothie/chocolate soymilk/etc) in a shot glass, put in a popsicle stick and threw it in the freezer. Do you all think this is safe? And...

    Another Pushup Dilemma

    Just a question - do you have a pronounced lordosis (swayback or inward curve in your lower back)? I find (and this is just my anecdotal experience) that people who have this end up having a REALLY hard time with pushups. Just a thought. Carolyn

    Running = ankle pain

    If your ankle hurts EVERY time you run, I think it's may be time to see a doctor or physical therapist. Have you injured this ankle in the past? Ankle pain can be a result of many different problems and if you're running through the pain, it could make it much worse. Any time the body has pain...

    About that One Word thread....

    So my story pales in comparison but I did cry when watching 'Juno' the other day. It was the part at the end when they show a framed note on the wall from Juno to Vanessa and then they cut to the scene where Vanessa (Garner) gets to hold her baby for the first time. I'm not sure why that got me...

    No wonder salads have a bad rep!

    One thing I do like about Germany is their salads. They are usually full of different veggies and they are always fresh. Of course you usually can't choose the salad dressing (and the dressing usually has some sort of 'creamy' element that I find distasteful). I do miss the vegetarian choices in...

    Dry Clean Your Blue Jeans!?

    Michele- Maybe you could use one of the 'at home' dry cleaning products. Personally, I wash all of my jeans in the washer. I just don't dry them as that causes them in shrink IMO. Carolyn
