Hi, Jen! I'm not a nurse *yet,* but I'm halfway through a BSN program (graduating May 2007), and thought I'd share my story. I'm 39 (actually, I'll be 40 in TWO days!!), have a husband and two daughters (14 and 10), and worked in university administration for 15 years before doing my research...

Thanks, all...I have a taker!

....for me to post here that I have a VHS copy of CTX Upper Body that I would be glad to give away to the first person who emails me? I know these questions come up from time to time. If anyone is interested, drop me an email at [email protected]. Allison

I have absolutely nothing to back this up, but isn't the exposure in a tanning bed even more dangerous/strong than from direct sun? Regardless, I would never let my daughters go to a tanning salon. My dad had a melanoma removed two years ago, and that brought home the reality of skin cancer...

Lori, I just have to second what Anne said -- my family did a Disney cruise last summer, and it was wonderful! The ship has every bit of the Disney magic; everything is very well done. Since you're saving and planning far in advance, it might be fun to look into one of the packages where...

I really like Almay Bright Eyes mascara. It's easy to apply, not clumpy, and does a nice job of darkening, lengthening, and thickening without looking like "too much." I use the Black Plum shade. It probably isn't that different from Black Brown, but it's kind of fun. Allison

You're very welcome -- I'm glad it got there safely! My girls (10 and 14) thought it was a very cool project! It was fun to participate! Allison

I wear a real mix of brands, but I'm really getting hooked on Paula Begoun's products. Paula is the author of "Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me," and she cuts through a lot of the mystique and hype related to cosmetics. She has skin care and makeup lines, and I think they're very...

I'll send one from Indiana, asap! Good luck! Allison

My 14-year-old loves pedicures -- and a spa visit would be something fun the two of you could do together! Allison

Hi! Here's one I made last night that I only make occasionally, and I'm reminded every time how good it is. It only takes a few minutes to throw together. I served it with a Smashed Potato and Broccoli casserole from Cooking Light and a mixture of roasted veggies. East-West Barbecued...

Marcia, So glad you had a wonderful time!! The ear infection story is terrible, but it sounds like you managed. I know that the fabulous boat was pretty good consolation! Are you ready to go back?? We still look at our pictures and *sigh*! Glad you're safely home... Take care, Allison

Mark Ruffalo! In Just Like Heaven...I saw it too -- it was very fun! My girls and I are looking forward to Dreamer, opening this weekend -- a horse movie, with Kurt Russell and Dakota Fanning. Just the thing for these Kentucky girls! Allison

I'm a magazine junkie -- I think they're a great way to relax at the end of the day. Of course, some are more relaxing than others! I subscribe to: Oprah Self Redbook Glamour Cooking Light Better Homes and Gardens Newsweek And I have a friend who passes her People along to me every...

<--doesn't often participate in this thread, but always reads it and smiles about the great gals in Catheland! <--thinks Gilbert sounds like an awesome puppy, and hopes he is managing the stairs soon! <--is going to spend the day writing papers for her pediatrics class (<-- is in nursing...

Marcia -- I just have to chime in and say that I did a Disney cruise with my husband and girls this summer, and it really was as wonderful as we thought it would be! I know you will have a GREAT time, and I'll look forward to reading your reviews and seeing pictures when you get back! Enjoy...

Hey Janice! Well, it does sound like this ER interview is a great possibility -- both that they're interested in you, AND it would be excellent experience. You'd get to see so many things! I will cross my fingers that you've gone through all of this mess because this is the right job for you...

I worked up the nerve to take a look, but my poky dial-up connection seems to be having some trouble pulling it up! (Good excuse, right?) Will this be my motivation to get wireless finally...? Allison

Oh dear...how scary is it? Though I think all of these posts are pretty convincing -- it must be awful!! And I'm too scared to go take a look for myself... Trying to stamp out my curiosity! Allison

Hi! I have the same Nordictrak macska has, and I also like it a lot! Have fun shopping! Allison
