Good morning..... thanks for getting us going this long weekend, Chris!! So sorry about your dad, Chris. I know what you mean about that particular weekend being sad for you..... unfortunately that weekend for me is my birthday weekend. It's still hard, every year. I will drink a...

Chris, you need no dr. involvement for the lifeline thing.... they are just a private company who comes and installs the equipment and then if she needs to press the button, they then call whoever it's set up for the to call first -- you, 911, whatever. They do a test run once a month...

Thank you both for the mom thoughts and opinions. A lot has transpired since. My sister talked to the case worker at the hospital and learned a lot. She does require 24 hour care and she said my mom's not really ready to go home, but that if we have (24 hour) help, she could be at home...

Joanne, a quiz on the first day? Wow, that's harsh! :) Travis has to read Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli.... at least it sort of looks like it'll be a fun read. I'm going to see if we have time to pick it up today. Oh, the lightening..... freckles/age spots.... you say tomato, I say...

Funny about the lack of laziness, Chris..... and I know what you mean! But, at least there are no homework hassles!!! Except I do need to figure out what Travis is supposed to be reading this summer and get him going on it!! :eek: Must be fun to have so many new workouts! I like the...

Well, it was almost nine years ago, so the details are sketchy, but when my second son was born it was considered a high risk pregnancy because of my age and because my first son was born five weeks early with some minor complications. I had to go in extra, but I'm not sure it was that often...

Gayle, that IS exciting! When I read your first post I was thinking how cool it is that you have this time to think about it. Nice to read your second post to see the excitement come through. Good luck, and have fun!!

Ellen Barrett and Tonique are nothing alike, in my opinion. Ellen's workouts are a sort of fusion of pilates/yoga/cardio -- big movements, not fast. Tonique is more like traditional working out -- squats/lunges, but with light enough weights that they are basically non-weighted and you do...

Kathy! Thanks for popping in! Sorry about the rain..... Travis wants to see the Twilight movie and I really do not want to take him. Dylan has a playdate tomorrow, so I could, except I really should go to work. Chris, I'm not sure I have much advice for you on the Zach going to...

Rabbit rabbit!! Crazy! I won't be around much today..... headed up to SF soon to go see my dermatologist. I'm starting to hate going all that way, but I do get to see my friend for lunch and that's a huge bonus! Didn't work out this morning..... slept like crap and wanted to try...

Oh man, you guys have me weakening on TF, but I'm still going to wait a while. Thanks for the explanations, and it is nice to know your answers were (independently! :)) the same. Yes, I did see the Money Pit and yes, some of it we could relate to! :) Chris, is right.... you should just...

Very important, you TF ladies!!! Someone on vf wants to split a set of TF -- she wants the fires and wants someone else to have the hiits. The three others (stretch, core, sculpt, I guess?) are to be decided. Should I do this deal? The hiits are easy choreography, right? But...

Wow, I feel like I must have slept in or something, but ironically I think I was up earlier this morning! You go, girls! Yes, what are we going to do without Kathy starting us off this week! Thanks, Chris! ;) That is an awfully early awakening Kathy had! Well, I managed to...

Joanne! So good to hear from you finally. Sounds like the party was a definite hit -- bravo! And everything came together.... yeah, just make sure that grout gets done. That's something that just would never ever get done at our house if it worked out that way. Did I tell you guys...

Oh, forgot to tell you guys.... last night I was looking at my dvds and Larry walked over and saw all the boxes with many many dvds..... I guess he hasn't seen the collection in a while. He made a great show of shaking his head or whatever and asking how much they each go for, and then he...

Good morning! Yes, Kathy, we are going to miss you!! I hope you have a great time. Definitely take Travel Fit and a band with you -- you just never know what you can work in. Well, I did that Kick Punch and Jam! I think it's hilarious that I've never done it, because that seems...

Oh, p.s. great news about not being up after the weekend! You go! I'm trying to get a little extra cardio in here and there this summer too, since I'm not making it into work!!! :eek:

Chris, I cannot believe that patient is still hanging on! I thought for sure you were going to say he didn't make it. Gosh, it sounds like a tough night! My mom is doing ok, but just ok. She had a horrible week last week -- just in lots of pain all the time. I think they are still...

Chris, I forgot to mention that we watched the Alice movie last night finally.... we enjoyed it! Amazing what they can make these days. Larry missed it because he was really sick -- just feeling flu like, sort of, and as soon as he finished the antibiotics for the staph infection, he got a...

I read this thread when it was started and couldn't wait to make the sandwich so I did it with what I had on hand: open face whole wheat bread spread with strawberry jam, topped with crumbled goat cheese, topped with deli turkey. Yummmm..... I've had one every day since!
