    3 more days to D-Land!

    California Adventure was not worth our time. They are planning to completely redo the entire CA part. It is more like a Cedar Point, IMO, except for the shows, which were good, but you have to time it just right. DisneyLand is WONDERFUL, though! I prefer it to DisneyWorld. With younger...

    Body fat % measurement

    Put it out of your mind right now! How do you feel when working out? You are strong and lean, right? How do you feel in your clothes? Awesome, right?? I just had my bf% taken with a group of 16 people and the numbers (taken by the same person) were ALL over the place! She took the arm...

    Question for Mom's who work and workout

    I do a variety of things to get my workouts in. We just returned from a 1.5 hour bike ride. I picked up the kids (same ages as yours) from school with their bikes in the car and we went right from the parking lot to every sidewalk in the city! It was a pretty good workout! Sometimes I get...

    Special educators and friends please weigh in

    I am a regular ed teacher, but have lots of IEP kids. I talked with our resource room teacher and she said that she treasures the MOST the notes/cards that are thank you notes. She mentioned the ones that mention specifically what she has done to help that child. This week at our school, we...

    Is it worthwhile to take a Vitamin B supplement?

    I feel sick when taking a multi, too, but I am fine when I take it just before I go to bed. I know that this interferes with the absorption of some of the vitamins, but I am okay with this!! Anyone know about taking another B supplement while also taking a multi? Jenn

    I'm going to Chicago!

    When I am on a field trip, I always make a scavenger hunt for all of the kids. I make the list myself, thinking of all the things OUTSIDE of the bus that we might see along the way. I also leave a spot for them to put a detail (red flag...on a house on the side of the road, etc.) I say...

    Vacation recommendations please

    The worst part isn't the actual waxing...it is the second when that the strip is in the hand, ready to be ripped off. That second lasts forever!!!!!! Once it is off, it really isn't that big of a deal, but that dreaded anticipation...BLECH like you said!! Jenn

    Motion sickness anyone?

    I deal with it all the time, too. Very much NOT fun! I just got back from the Dominican Republic. Dramamine helps (bus and plane rides), but then I have the after effects for days, even with the less drowsy versions. I sometimes experience the same thing with working out, just like you...

    Best island vacation?

    Have you thought about a short cruise? There are lots of 3, 4, or 5 day cruises, or even a week? The Caribbean is beautiful and on a cruise, you could visit several islands. Another vote for the Outer Banks in NC. The weather would be iffy now, but last year I was there at the end of...
