    My drive home today....

    glad you made it home safely. this weather always makes me nervous. i lived in florida and drove through the worst of storms. the worst oil slicks dont compare to ice. we are expecting snow, which should turn to ice by the morning. i have heard so many different forecasts, i dont know what to...

    What would you have done?

    another agreement here. sadly, it sounds like it isnt the drivers decision. he was just following orders, and is probably taking the brunt of it from other annoyed customers. i would most likely have tipped, but probably would have looked for another place to order from in the future. suri

    What are some of the odd questions people ask?

    my favorite is, "how did you get so tall?" (6 feet for the curious) i usually tell them that my parents tortured me as a child. put me on a stretcher when i didnt behave. suri

    Why don't people get it???

    they just dont get it and wont ever get it. they cant see we enjoy it, and it isnt being done because we have to do it. they think it is a chore. my dear friend is very overweight. i have tried everything to get her to walk around the park with me. in this area, we are total opposites...

    Divorce / Pity Party

    i understand your point and his. maybe you should tell him sooner and get a romantic gift for valentines day. it may seem like only a few days, but i think you can make them happier days. divorce sucks. bottom line. dont let the ex ruin one more minute of your life. suri

    What did you want to be when you grew up?

    either a gymnast or a make up artist. ok, i am six feet tall, so the first was out long ago. i still think about doing the make up thing. i have been a speech pathologist(therapist) for 21 years. trying hard, but i cant think of a connection.

    Strength training for legs for Long Distance Runners

    another one here in agreement with carole. variety is good, but you get plenty of leg work in the runs. the heavy training will help get you through the mid to later part of the race. i didnt do much lower leg training for my first marathon, because the person training me said i didnt need...

    info on frequent urination

    i thank God as well that i dont have interstitial cystitis. i do have endometriosis (and all the surgeries and problems that go with it) and i was at one point told that maybe scar tissue was causing the problem. after a while it all gets so tiring. the doctor said that it would be 1x a wk...

    info on frequent urination

    i thought the same thing about the kiegel exercises. reinventing the wheel maybe? i think it is that concept, but they are going to use a probe and each time you contract it will register on the computer. i will find out more next week when i start. believe me, this isnt something i am...

    How many hours a day do you workout?

    cheryl, you are so right. i used to force myself to take a day off and then felt guilty. not anymore. i usually take one day a week off. it varies, but lately it has been during the week due to my long days. weekends give me more time for a longer workout, without the stress of having to...

    Velvet skin

    i checked my tube and it says it is primer to prepare and protect the skin. i am pretty happy with it. the original one got some good reviews. i will go back to that in the warmer weather. maybe check sephora or gloss. not sure what brand would be good. suri
