    School Fundraisers: Enough food!

    My nephew's schools (here in Canada) sell magazine subscriptions as a fundraiser. I like it much better than buying food items.

    Rant and *spoiler* for Dancing With the Stars

    The best dancer doesn't necessarily stay on the show as proven by the fact that Rick Fox and Audrina were voted off pretty early. I thought Audrina had a good chance to be in the finals based on her dancing and although I didn't know who she was before, I liked the personality that came through...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    I didn't do any yoga or treadmill yesterday since i didn't want to mess up my hair.:o My hair is a pain to blow out so in the interest of preserving my hairdresser's hard work, I opted out of sweating last night. I'll most likely do yoga today since it's a little less sweaty than the treadmill...

    Any Cathe beginners?

    I didn't do any yoga this weekend but i did an hour on the treadmill BOTH Saturday & Sunday. Bridget: Nice to see you back! It's hard to make time to workout when you have so many other responsibilities but try and do ANYTHING! It will make you feel better and cope with all your other demands.

    No more excuses! I want success.....

    It looks like you have made a great start. Try to keep things in perspective: It's a marathon, not a sprint. If you want to stick with it this time, try to make changes that you can maintain long term. You should be able to have a piece of cake on your birthday, just don't eat cake every...

    Terrible family news....

    ((((HUGS)))) So sorry you are going through this! I hope it was diagnosed early enough that he can beat it. I lost my father to lung cancer when i was twelve and i wouldn't wish that on anyone.

    Getting Our Licks In!

    I didn't do any yoga this weekend (my classes don't count). I did an hour on the treadmill both Saturday and Sunday. I went on a roadtrip to Buffalo in search of some boots that are sold out everywhere here and I lucked out. :) I'm trying to figure out how to avoid damaging my shoes while...

    nastiness on the internet

    I'm sorry you were flamed. I think sometimes people are a little more brave online than they would be face to face. Then again, some people are rude in person so i would expect the same online. Try not to let it bother you. They aren't worth it. I think the moderators here do a great job of...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Good Morning Ladies, It's Remembrance day here. I guess that's the equivalent to the US memorial day (?). All the banks and government offices are closed so traffic was so light this morning. I haven't gone on the treadmill since Sunday's workout but have been keeping up with my yoga and i...

    Where is your bookmark? (book thread)

    Debbie, I feel your pain in having to wait! When i first read Outlander i had to wait for each and every book to come out which is why i've read them more than once. You should see the original covers of the first three books. They look like cheesy romance covers.

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Yesterday two of my buddies at work were celebrating birthdays so i treated our department to cheesecake since all three of us LOOOOOOVE it. I got three different kinds: Pumpkin, Candy Cane, and Red Velvet and they were all delicious! I sacrificed a lot of points for the indulgence but it was...

    Where is your bookmark? (book thread)

    Maybe I'll make an attempt to finish the second book before i start something else. I finished the first one pretty fast so maybe i just wasn't in the right frame of mind when i started the second one. I have the boxed set of the first 4 books so i'll give it another go before i decide to give...

    Where is your bookmark? (book thread)

    I just finished Unbearable Lightness by Portia de Rossi. It was very easy to read and an interesting memoir. Someone had recommended the Anita Blake series to me since i like Karen Moning's Highlander & Fever series but i'm not really into it. I made it through the first book but the second...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    My ache seems to be gone. I stretched and i feel good so i'm not sure what was going on. I don't really consider myself old enough to start getting aches and pains so maybe i just overstretched it in one of my yoga classes on Sunday. I won't get to do any yoga tonight since i'm going to see...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Hi everyone, Yesterday i decided to do an hour on the treadmill. Haven't used it in quite some time and it was a great feeling to have to lower my body weight on my user id.:) I was feeling some pain/soreness in my right hip/groin area and i thought it would feel better if i got moving on the...

Yesterday i did an hour on the treadmill. I haven't used the treadmill in a while and it was a nice feeling...

    Just a thought about sizes

    I have to admit that the number on the label still matters to me.:o I am working on getting over this. I am 5ft9" and find it difficult to find pants long enough to wear with high heels. A 34" inseam is perfect but it seems a lot of stores only carry 32" or petite sizes for shorter women.

    Unbearable Lightness

    I picked up this book the other day and the same day Portia de Rossi was on Oprah to promote it. I'm about halfway through and it's a really interesting read. It's about her battle with an eating disorder and coming out as a lesbian in Hollywood but also gives an interesting glimpse inside the...
