    Cathe, you inspired a fun shopping trip today :o)

    Hi, Cathe, After doing Hardcore Extreme this morning and enjoying looking at your various clip-on ponytails while my own hair was getting drenched w/ sweat, I decided to go get one. I love it! I actually got two- a curly one and a sleek, straight one. What a fun accessory! My little one...

    Yea for you! What does it mean? :)

    If you are excited, I am excited! :) Does that mean that we will be able to buy your DVDs in stores? Does it mean that they will be on TV more than they are now? Just how cut will my muscles look because of this? ;) High Five! Amy

    Art lovers - please post names of your favorite paintings, painters

    If you like posters but want to decorate with something a little fancier than posters, I found this art store who will transfer a poster onto stretched mounted canvas and then add texture on top of the transfer so it looks like you have the original painting or an excellent copy. The transfer...

    Art lovers - please post names of your favorite paintings, painters

    Anything Matisse. I wish I knew the name of my favorite one, but it is in the Barnes Collection. I also love the modern art of Romero Britto. www.britto.com Also, I can never get over The Sunday Afternoon on the Grande Jatte by Suerat. The Barnes Collection also has one of his HUMONGOUS dot...

    My home is about to become a shelter (Katrina)

    Update; I just got this note from my cousin today. You guys have so amazed me! Hey, Amy. I was out walking with the kids when you called. Got the ring of the phone and heard it was you before I lost the signal :). Tried to text you but couldn't even get enough signal for that. ANYHOO ...

    Family okay, but lost everything in Hurricane

    Sandra, I'm so sorry for your losses! I have thought about you in the wake of all of this. Please let me know if I can help you here in Dallas. I mean that! Your Road Trip friend, Amy

    My home is about to become a shelter (Katrina)

    I'm going to update here just because it is kind of therapeutic for me! I finally got to talk to them for a bit this morning. They will be coming here. The "house" they were loaned is actually a cabin, come to find out. It took them 3 days with a chainsaw and friends just to get out of their...

    My home is about to become a shelter (Katrina)

    This just in: For the time being, I am "plan b." Another relative has an empty house on the market in Atlanta and they will stay there for now. Their needs are the same, so I will send your sweet contributions right to them! I had gotten used to the plan in my mind, so now I'm sorry they...

    My home is about to become a shelter (Katrina)

    After thinking this over this afternoon, I have decided I will accept gift cards for them. There are many Target stores and Super Target Stores near my home, and also near their home, if/when they get back there. Just so you know, they are kind and hard-working people who will most likely...

    My home is about to become a shelter (Katrina)

    Oh my gosh! Your generosity is so very touching! I am moved beyond words! My own family willl not feel a burden from helping them (at least I don't think we will), however, my relatives definitely have needs from clothing to medicine to ??? Since I don't have a way to pass it on to them yet...

    Can we get a hint to the announcement(s)?

    She mentioned "it" at the roadtrip but said she didn't want to say anything until the deal was 100% DONE so as not to jinx herself. Perhaps she is waiting for the ink to dry on the contract or whatever it is. ;)

    My home is about to become a shelter (Katrina)

    This is true. Their loss is compounded, too more than you can imagine. Their father was a police officer who got shot. The bullet went through his eye and part of his brain, but damaged his mind. He was trying to kill their mother after he "recovered" so she had just left him two months ago...

    My home is about to become a shelter (Katrina)

    Thank you, everyone! Nicole, somehow you made me feel their pain. I should be more concerned about them than I am about "my space." Suck it up, Amy! ;) I will just discuss her needs and our needs when she gets here and we will see how we can make the best of everything. If we are talking...

    My home is about to become a shelter (Katrina)

    Her kids are very well disciplined (at least that is my impression of them from VISITS! I have never lived with them before. :D They range from 16 down to 5 and they ARE good kids. I think I'll say that we need to be out the door at 7:45 so if we can have the showers from 6:45-7:30 then we'll...

    My home is about to become a shelter (Katrina)

    Okay, my cousin and her six children are moving in with us for a while because they lost their home in Louisiana and her parents and brother also lost their homes. The brother is moving in with my brother, the parents are moving in with my parents and I get the big crowd. I'm grasping at...
