Just looking for a gauge really! Does your other half: Do an equal share of the housework when he/she is home? Yes. We both have things we hate. He does laundry cuz I hate it. He hates dishes. I do the bathrooms. He does the floors. Cook for you? No, but it doesn't bother me. He CAN make a mean Hamburger Helper when I ask…

And I must add here...my newest fix is Peanut Butter Cheerios!!!

I know it's odd, but big calves are a MAJOR turn on to me!

I like exercising alone also. Talking just gets in the way. That last time I exercised with anyone, it was with a friend of mine who claims she had been working out quite a bit, so I thought it might be fun. We have a nice trail that winds through a good part of town, and it's good for walking, running, biking, skating,…

OK I'm going to try this, I started tonight at the gym. I upped my weights and did 5 reps per set... Thanks for the good info!

I am seeing this a lot here, heavier weights with lower reps. How many reps do you do per set?

I got to have lunch with Ossie Davis. Awesome!!!! Also met Antonio Fargas, Yolanda King (daughter of MLK, now deceased), Atallah Shabazz (daughter of Malcolm X), and got to hang out in BB King's dressing room after going to show. James Reynolds (Abe Carver on Days of Our Lives), and the rap group Onyx. KC and JoJo (they…

It never fails to amaze me how people feel it is perfectly OK to comment on such things as YOUR FAMILY PLANNING. FWIW, I get ish because I have one kid and plan no more. I had a fall wedding and black white and red were my colors and we got lots of compliments!!! Spider webs never crossed my mind! LOL

I have lost a significant amount of weight over the last few years...and put about 20 back on. There is this guy at my job I really just do not care for. You know the type...he HAS to make it a point to speak to everyone, even though no one really likes him. I was out walking one day and trying to ignore him, when I…

What a moving and lovely tribute to your friend. Keep his gifts to you close to your heart, always.

What a lovely tribute to your friend.

I try and fit in a walk between clinic appts. I can do the mile route around our campus in about 20 minutes. It beats nothing at all.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Nook...but I still check out books from the library too!! I'm usually reading 2-3 'real' books at any given time, but I flop back and forth.

I love working out in lightweight running shoes. I bought some Adidas when I decided to start training to do a half marathon. Never got around to it...but the shoes are serving me very well!!!

Currently reading V is for Vengeance, the latest in the Kinsey Millhone series by Sue Grafton. Secretly sad she is close to the end of the alphabet...

When a gaggle of older women come into the gym, hog all the treadmills and proceed to have a hen session at the top of their lunds for the minimum 30 minutes. And people who bring their kids with them and the said kid is hanging out on a machine I want to use doing NOTHING. Yep, I ask them to move. I like seeing young…

Pinterest and baked ranch oyster crackers....I never should have asked for the recipe!!!!

If you are guys are *done*....get the double whammy like I did...a tubal ligation w/ablation. I haven't had a cycle since August, surgery done Sept 2. Have them document all the bleeding, will help with getting insurance to pay for the ablation.

I prefer to think of myself as smarter and 'seasoned'!!! :tongue:

I tried to combat this....me and the hubbs took a Love & Logic Class. As the child of 2 yellers...I don't always get it right. But it DID get to stop and think about the things I'm doing and why. I still consider myself a platinum member of the crummy mom club but I am trying!!! Sometimes I just have to WALK AWAY...(mine…
