I replied to two of Chris' posts in this thread about the music in STS http://www.thecathenation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=275366 In my first post, I stated that I liked STS Strength, but didn't like the music. I didn't write anything worse than previous posters did - mostly that it was...

My daughter (2nd grade) was marked wrong for this: My mom and I ate at Burger King. The teacher wanted it to be written: My Mom and I ate at Burger King. She wanted the m to be capitalized in mom and I don't think that's correct, but wanted to make sure. By the way, we...

DH and I are looking for a hanging heavy bag with a stand and I was wondering if anyone had one they could recommend. Also, what bag weight would you get - we were looking at 70-80 pounds. TIA! Erica

I went to the pre-order page and was surprised to see that this is still posted there: "Though we do not guarantee a ship date for Shock Cardio and Travel Fit you should not expect delivery until late September 2009." Obviously, this is not going to happen. As far as I know...

My ds is almost 15 years old and was given a summer reading assignment. I'm already very opposed to summer homework, but bought the assigned book and started reading it myself because I was curious about the book. I've read 30 pages of the book and have already read about cheerleaders...

Does anyone have any information/experience with precocious puberty that they could share with me? My dd is 6 1/2 and has swelling/tenderness under her nipples. Her pediatrician consulted with an endocrinologist and they want her to have some bloodwork to check her hormones because they...

I'm sorry to start a new thread about kettlebells, but I'm interested in getting Kettlebells and DVDs and am overwhelmed by the info on the forum. What size kettlebells would I need to start with? I lift heavy with traditional strength workouts. What are "must have" DVDs? Where do...

My DH is starting a new job where his life insurance coverage isn't as good as what he had in his previous job. We want him to have additional coverage and don't know where to get it from. Any suggestions? TIA Erica

We've been invited to a baptism and I don't know what we should wear. My three teenage sons want to wear cargo pants, polo shirts and sneakers. I thought they should wear dress pants, dress shoes, shirt and tie. I'm a SAHM and never wear anything but jeans or workout clothes. Here's...

I just got back from the doctor's office and, for the second time in a row, my blood pressure was high - 140/84. I used to consistently have low blood pressure so this is new. Is it ok to exercise at higher intensity with these numbers? I forgot to ask the doctor and feel funny calling...

Hi, My dad was admitted to the hospital yesterday. He lives in South Florida, I live in Ohio. I have been trying to get any information I can about him, but haven't been successful even though I've spent a lot of time on the phone. I've been calling the nurse's station so far, but wonder...

I need opinions from teachers. I'm really upset about a comment a teacher said tonight at the parent/teacher conference and don't know whether I should let it go or not. I have twin boys in the 6th grade. Both are excellent students who are in advanced classes. For one boy, everything...

I've been short on workout time and I want to do an intense workout tomorrow. A friend of mine loaned Mindy's Bootcamp to me, but I haven't done it or previewed it. I've done the lower body/cardio premix of Drill Max once. Which would you do? Or do you have any other suggestions? I'm...

I was wondering if any parents of teens or adults could give me some advice. My oldest son is 15 1/2 years old and has been asking to try alcohol. I'm not sure what the right thing to do is - I have mixed feelings about it. The drinking age is 21 here. I don't know if it's better for him to...

My son is tiny and very picky and it's hard for me to find lunches to pack for school that he will eat. He's also a vegetarian and a very slow eater, so he needs something that doesn't take long to finish. When he's home, he eats better but many of the lunches he eats just don't pack well for...

Hi Cathe, I was just wondering if you are keeping the March 18th filming date open while you are waiting for the results from your MRI next week or if you have canceled filming for that date as well. I hope that the results are good and that you are back to normal soon! Erica
