    Gingerbeericecold- I read your post and I’m not sure what name you go by. I live on old railroad tracks that they turned into tar bike and walking paths. It’s nice to be able to walk for miles in nature away from traffic! Great picture of the railroad bridge. As kids we also played on the tracks and climbed a very similar bridge. Thinking back we could have gotten killed...

    Now ... homework.

    I am usually the Queen of References when I write papers. I'm the one with 5 pages of references for a 10-page paper. :grin:

    I don't usually lose marks for that, but often get comments indicating there might be a bit too many references.

    For my 2nd assignment in this course, I decided to ease back a bit and try handing in a paper with a more "normal" (based on what I've seen others hand in) number of references. I did lose a few marks and got comments that I didn't have enough!!

    Righto ... my first order of business on this final assignment is to gather up a stack of references and do my reference pages. I'm up to 6 pages of references. They want references ... I'll give them references!!

    This is the way I usually write a paper ... do all the references first, then put some words and illustrations in the paper part. I shouldn't have deviated from my usual.

    But, because my topic is "get moving at work", I'm finding all sorts of journal articles on health and fitness. :)

    Just wanted to send hugs to those with unresponsive husbands. Everyone has to make their own decisions as to what they need in life, but for me an intimate relationship is paramount. I left my first husband because we just were not connecting in the way I needed. It was very, very hard and we parted as friends, but I now have the relationship I desired. I know I would rather be alone than live with an emotional stranger, but we are all different and have different priorities.
    Never, ever, put yourself last in life.

    Love Heather UK XXXXXX

    Hi Machka.

    I used the same methodology. But found all of my professors wanted a personal touch such as how the references support a/my point of view. :) I am a numbers person and being wordy for the sake of being wordy within a term paper was always tough for me.

    Good luck and happy referencing!

    Happy Thursday!

    Lisa - Your workout is impressive! Did you work with a trainer to get into that routine? By the way, how did you meet Corey? Your happiness with him makes me happy, lol.

    Barbie - so neat you are easing back into strength training. I love reading your approach to life and exercise.

    Yesterday I resumed my SWSY. 3# dumbbells and 2 1/2# ankle weights. Yes, they were easy, but as the book recommends, start out with really light weights to get the form and breathing down, then increase weights and begin getting some resistance. Light and slow. My plan is to keep at those weights tomorrow then gradually increase, doing a workout every other day.

    Before my surgery I was at 8# dumbbells and 10# ankle weights, three times a week, and that was enough. I felt strong and in good shape, and was able to actually keep losing a little and my favorite pants were getting lose despite sneaking in treats.

    Got some good walking in yesterday with the Hoka shoes, but my knees got a little grumpy. That will pass with time, slow break in, and the SWSY leg exercises I'm doing.

    Rori (((HUGS))). I hope hearing aids help your DH. How is your brother doing? Still living at your house? Has Reuben finished everything in the bathroom remodel?

    Katla - that's terrific news about your DDIL and grandson coming to visit after you get home from seeing the family/grandkids at the farm. <3

    Since there appear to be several of us on this list that need a gal's weekend getaway, I emailed Elon Musk and told him I wanted to upgrade the teleporter on order from 2 seats to 6. He's not good at answering emails. Hope he doesn't accidentally book us on a trip to Mars! :#

    Have been watching an interesting series on Hulu - "The Top of the Lake". (First Season) Co-written and directed by NZ gal Jane Campion of "The Piano" fame. Holly Hunter is/was in both. Beautiful scenery - though stark - and engaging plot twists. Now I want to see if I can find "The Piano" somewhere and watch it again. It came out in 1993.

    Make it a fabulous day, supermodels! <3
