I'll be 48 in Feb, but if you count how many actual birthdays I've HAD-(Leap-Year Baby) I guess I'm the youngest here-barely 12!!! Doreen:P :P

My brother has some pictures of my great niece from birth to homecoming (today!) Here's the link: http://galletta.business.pitt.edu/gracie/ Hope you enjoy them! Thanks for your patience from this doting Great-Aunt!! Doreen

I was just visiting with my Mom after getting my hair cut and she told me that Grace Louise is home!!! She is doing well, obviously, and I am convinced the power of prayer helped get her there. Thank you all so much. Reading your comments and well wishes certainly comforted me and I...

Thanks TeTe and Teri! My niece is very close to my mom, Louise, so naming her Grace Louise thrilled my mom! I think it fits her well, and I suppose we'll be nicknaming her "Amazing Grace"!!! God Bless Doreen

Hi all! Got two open eye pictures of my great niece! If all goes according to plan, she'll be home with mommy and daddy later this morning!! Thanks to you all for your prayers and continued positive thoughts!! This one is my new desktop!!!!! I'll keep you posted about her...

Just wanted you to see a recent pic of Baby Grace. I posted her most recent condition, and will soon have one with her beautiful eyes open! Thanks again for your prayers for our family Doreen

Hi, everyone. The following is part of an e-mail that my sister-in-law (Grandma) sent me yesterday. Dear Friends, Good news! Gracie is gaining weight and now tips the scale at 5lb. 9oz. (drinking 75 cc at a time - that's a little more than 2 oz.) She is much more alert for longer...

First, thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I am so grateful and I knew you all were where I needed to go for support! I just received an e-mail from my sister-in-law (Gramma) and she said that Grace is taking about 40 cc of mama's milk at every feeding and my niece will start nursing...

My niece in Pittsburgh had a beautiful baby girl last Tuesday, three weeks early, after monitoring some liver enzyme problems. Last Thursday the baby, Gracie, had a problem with seizures and an apparent stroke that an MRI showed affected 2/3 of half of her brain. The other half of her brain is...

Thanks, Denise! That's precisely what it was! I didn't even see that question checked incorrectly. How it got changed, I'll never know!! Thanks for the reply! Doreen:7

I just was checking my profile and discovered it has become disabled. I did not do this, and I haven't even posted for a while (although I do lurk!) This is the statement I get when I click on my name at the "check who's on line" statement: ERROR: No such user profile The user has...

I just ordered the new 4 day split, also!! I have been battling a tennis elbow for almost 5 months now and since it is pretty much back to normal, I took the plunge with the new series!! Can't wait to get them and, in the meantime, get back what I lost while nursing my arm!! Doreen

My boss' wife just got this book from Amazon. She said that the author, Jim Karas, was on some talk shows recently and he stands by the premise that muscle conditioning ALONE is the key to permanent weight loss, along with proper diet, of course. I glanced through the beginning of it, and...

I just thought about this the other day--- Right after 9/11, I was travelling one of the main drags in our town, light after light... and the same car stayed ahead of me. There was a kid in the back watching me constantly with a kind of sad look on his face. When I turned after about a mile...

So far I've lost 15 lbs and have gotten muscle definition all over, but I still have a pretty high body fat percentage, according to my scale and I am sure I still have some work ahead of me to reduce the flab on my arms and thighs. I recommend it, and suggest searching for a rotation YOU'D...

Hi Marcia Starting in Jan, I used the 16 week max. fat loss rotation-the first I've ever used- and found myself more disciplined! I guess I am the kind of person that needs W/O structuring! As soon as my elbow is better (tennis elbow- from work, not excercise) I am going to start another...

Thanks, Michele! I used the original rotation, but since I don't run, I substituted an interval type workout on the interval run days. (IMAX 1,2, or 3, SB, etc) Good luck! I really liked this rotation! Doreen

I was doing so well this year with the 16 week max. wt. loss rotation-15 lbs and some UB definition and no more knee pain!! Then last week my elbow started to bother me (from work, not exercise). So I stopped UB work (it hurts to grasp DB and BB) and I saw a PT yesterday who worked on it...

My DH and I have been married for 24 years- we didn't live together first. I have the strong feeling that if we had, we wouldn't be together now. That first year of marriage- or for that matter living with someone- can be so stressful and different that, in my case, if I hadn't made the...

Judy My first thought was Rocky, cuz of his scars and such. I think it's so great of you to take in and care for this stray. I wish more people would care for our four legged friends this way! Doreen:7
