    Anyone else waiting for Cathe orders?

    I placed an order on Saturday, 12/17 (great daily deals!) and it's still being processed 5 business days later?? I sent a customer service email yesterday and no response yet. :( Is anyone else finding their '12 days of Christmas' orders are slow to process & ship? I can appreciate SNM...

    Dumb things your DH or SO has done that...

    you've had to forgive? My DH and I recently celebrated our 23rd anniversary :eek: and seeing the ultrasound photo Elliemom posted in another thread reminded me of something DH did that nearly caused his demise. 14 years ago, my DH copied over the ULTRASOUND videotape of our daughter for a...

    Foods you're too scared to try?

    The Sushi Virgin thread gave me the inspiration for this: Does anyone besides me have foods they think will taste so horrible that they've never tried one little bite? For me, eel sushi will not happen nor will Tofutti "ice cream" or pigs feet or tripe. Any other cuisine scaredy-cats out there?

    Real controversy--Let's talk pie!

    Okay, the gloves are off. It's time to have a serious smackdown debate: Which is better? Pumpkin pie or pecan? Put on your big girl panties (or big boy shorts, as the case may be) and take a side. If you're considering saying, "I like both," you'll have to defend your case for being...

    My Mom passed away

    I'm at her funeral this weekend. She actually passed away last Saturday but I didn't post it as it helped to have a place to come where I could briefly set aside my overwhelming grief & think about something else besides how terribly much I miss her. :( She turned 85 just 2 weeks ago. She'd...

    Cancelling Precision Nutrition

    I just wanted to put this out there for anyone considering this program. For various reasons I don't want to get into here, I purchased this set and subsequently decided to return it. PN promotes a 45 day "FULL REFUND, SATISFACTION GUARANTEED" policy. I was w/in 30 days when I emailed them...

    DVDs for Veterans

    This was posted by someone else at VF, but in case anyone didn't see it: There's a non-profit organization that collects used dvds and gives them to VA center for vets to use. I emailed them and they accept both entertainment and fitness dvds. I think this a WONDERFUL idea and will be...

    Under Armour shoes question?

    Hi Under Armour converts, I've searched the previous threads on these but couldn't find a consensus to my question. Would the Proto Evade or Speed be better for step and kickboxing workouts? (I read that the first version has more cushioning in the forefoot than the second so I'm sticking...

    Holiday-ish songs that make your ears....

    bleed? :eek: Understanding "different strokes for different folks" I'd rather listen to traffic horns than Dan Fogelberg's Same Old Lang Syne. Oh, I just HATE it, hate it, hate it! So, what on your "I'd rather hear cowbells clanging than..." list? :rolleyes:

    Fitness goals for 2009?

    In keeping with my year end navel gazing mood, I wondered what others have in mind for themselves for the coming year. What new thing are you trying? What overall goals do you have? What training program/rotation do you want to try or plan to continue? What bad habit (fitness/health related)...
