    The pictures you've all been waiting for...

    Both bathrooms look beautiful!!! Isn't it fun to pick out paint colors? There are so many beautiful shades now that whenever I go to the paint store and start looking, it makes me wish I had more rooms in my house! Of course after I finish the work of painting one, I'm happy to only have the...

    Are lots of 10 minute workouts as good a longer ones?

    Hi Gayle, That does look like it would tire a person out! Most of the recommendations I see in fitness and women's magazines are much milder - like walking 10 minutes at lunch or parking your car away from the office so you have to walk to and from it. Better than nothing - definitely! -...

    Are lots of 10 minute workouts as good a longer ones?

    I keep puzzling over this, so I thought I would see what others think: I often read that doing lots of short workouts - like three 10-minute workouts a day - is just as good as one longer workout. This just doesn't sound reasonable to me. I guess that you could build muscle strength that...

    Frustrated with Amy Bento's ASC II!

    My other thought is that I work out at home to save time - no travel to the gym. So why would I want to spend tons of time standing there looking at some incomprehensible step workout when I could be exercising? I think instructors - especially Amy- should take into account that most people have...

    Frustrated with Amy Bento's ASC II!

    I got ASCII and got rid of it for the same reason. I was hoping that Amy would give me a new instructor to branch out with new step videos. But what cuing she does give is awful - and mostly it is nonexistent. For complex choreography, I think that is inexcusable. I don't know why she doesn't...

    Who wants to (re) read GWTW?

    I don't even know how many times I have read GWTW - 10 or 15 at least! I discovered it when I was about 13 and would read to the end, then turn back to the beginning and start again! It's what I refer to as my "GWTW Phase" - I was so caught up in the romance, beautiful dresses, etc.! I even went...

    What is up with all these high heels?

    I just don't see how anybody can wear them! I wore heels a couple of weeks ago to a meeting - first time in heels in a while since I work at home - and by the end of the day I had blisters on the tops of all my toes!

    What is up with all these high heels?

    Why are all the dress shoes suddenly having heels that look like stilts? I have looked everywhere from Chadwicks to Spiegel to JC Penney and all of the dress shoes have heels at least 3 inches high - some are higher! Does anyone really wear these anymore? And why are shoe manufacturers...

    CIA DVDs 50% off CODE

    I recommend Gay Gasper's Cardio Step Express and All Out Infused Step. Also Sharon Money Twombley's Athletic Step Jam. I think all three are as hard as Cathe's - All Out Infused Step also has the best music I've ever found on a workout. I just ordered Gay's new one - All Cardio Stepping and...

    running and mascara...help!

    I have tried a lot of different waterproof mascaras and the best one I have found is Almay. It stays put, but it's easy to take off with Vaseline.

    Road Trip Pictures?

    Are there any pictures of the Road Trip? I saw the group shot on the blog and the great photos that Jerry posted, but are there others that I just can't find? There are usually tons posted by now after a Road Trip for those of us who couldn't go to enjoy!:)

    Why the battle over Tracey Staehle workouts?

    Wow that sounds like quite a brawl! It also sounds like Tracey needs to get someone new to represent her in discussions with customers on her website! I had heard about her workouts and thought they looked interesting, but I had no idea they were so controversial! Thanks for the...

    Why the battle over Tracey Staehle workouts?

    I got Tracey's High Intensity Step Mix 2 in a trade and did it yesterday. It was my first Tracey workout and I really enjoyed it. I thought it was well choreographed and very intense. The quality wasn't great - they filmed too far away so Tracey was "fuzzy" and her voice volume was too low. But...
