    How I did *not* know about the awesomeness of the Workout Blender?!

    Ok, I feel like a dope. A few days ago I was going to post asking what Cathe workouts are 1) circuit 2) with alternating upper and lower body 3) with step 4) at about 45 minutes long. The reason being, is that I can't handle too much upper or lower body at one time (I get too pooped out/bored/...

    Has Anyone Ever Intentionally Mispronounced Your Name????

    DITTO! And if he doesn't, then maybe you need to think twice about the boyfriend!

    The Firms new workout

    These sound interesting. One of the reasons I don't do Cathe as much is because the workouts are so long, even many of the premixes are an hour. I know I could cut them short but then I feel guilty, or weak, like I couldn't cut the mustard, when it's just that I don't have the time! I like...

    Where's Govt Girl?

    Hey you guys, thanks for remembering! :) My new kitty, Bettie Cupcake, is a handful! She tears around the house like a fiend, and at this moment giving Ace the dickens. Now I'll have to sit down with a glass of wine and catch up on everything I've missed around here!

    Where's Govt Girl?

    Oh, here I am! I always wanted to be one of those popular posters whose absence was noticed after 15 minutes and a search party was organized by the local townspeople, but I guess that ain't me! :p Yup, I am in a dorky mood, but I DID at least find my way back to the the forum! I haven't done...

    Has anyone sold stuff through Cafepress, Zazzle, etc?

    I'm thinking of selling some stuff through my website, like t-shirt designs, and things specific to my field but don't want to have to deal with inventory if I don't have to. I see these website where you can set up stores, but I'm not sure how cost effective it is (my share of profit) or safe...

    Please welcome "Bettie" to the forum >^..^<

    That part choked me up! Yes, it was a mutual rescue. I still cant' beleive murphy is gone, I still expect to see him when I come home. I know I still have more crying ahead. Heck, I still cry for Daisy at times, she was 18 when she died 7 years ago. Ace is being wonderful. It's barely been 48...

    Please welcome "Bettie" to the forum >^..^<

    I just got back from the vet...clean bill of health for Bettie. The vet also told me more details about Murphy. She said his lungs were clear, which with his heart condition means he didn't suffer; it was very quick, just like going to sleep and he probably never knew anything was going on. What...

    Do you have a maid?

    Thanks everyone! I told my husband tonight that I was now actually leaning towards getting a housekeeper, and his jaw literally dropped. He's been saying for years that when we had the money, he wanted to get one, and I've always said no way. Well,we've been very fortunate lately (working our...

    Do you have a maid?

    For the past few years, my husband has said that when we made enough money, he wanted me to have a maid come in a couple times a month. I have always said "no way", I don't want someone in my house when I'm not home touching my stuff, and I don't want to spend the money on it. We would joke back...

    Came home, found my sweet baby kitty, dead

    Thanks everyone, you all are awesome. I almost went home today from work because I just got upset all over again...luckily I pulled myself togther, and was able to work on a project in virtual solitude. I just worked, listened to music, and stayed away from people. I'm searching the house for...

    Thanks so much everyone, you have no idea how much you've helped me. Reading your messages and stories really touches me. I'm so sad for myself and missing him, but happy knowing that Murphy never knew a moment's pain ever, even in death....dying while playing with the tag on the bathroom...

    Came home, found my sweet baby kitty, dead

    I'm taking a sick day, there is no way I can go in, I can't stop crying. THank you everyone, I knew you all would understand. The only consolation I can think is that he just looked like it happened instantly. There was no trauma, nothing. He had been playing with a cord to my shaver (not...
