  • Have been praying since I first heard yesterday. I hope she gets better very soon!
  • My folks used to call it that too! My SIL started the term "Hankydank" for the remote. I have no idea why but I think it's along the lines of thingamajig or whatchamacallit. I
  • 1 pound cherry or grape tomatoes 1 tbsp olive oil 1 tsp minced garlic Italian seasonings of your choice--basil, oregano, etc. Put them all in a skillet with med. heat and cook until the tomatoes split open and let out the juices. Add pasta of your choice. Simple but good. You can decrease the amounts in this recipe for…
  • You are so gonna ROCK that 5K! You are an inspiration to us all!
  • Yup. Me too! And I'd hope he'd be aimin' to misbehave!
  • This! I am freezing already. I cannot imagine how cold I will be when I reach my goal. Doesn't matter, though. I still want to get there. I'll be able to buy cute sweaters in little sizes! :wink:
  • We had porchetta, (roast pork loin with italian seasoning) cavatappi pasta with a fresh tomato and mushroom sauce. The sauce was a little more watery than I had hoped but the tomato juices with the pasta was fantastic!
  • Fantastic! You rock!
  • Good suggestions so far! You might also think about adjusting your seat, front to back, on height. It might be too high on the front of the seat or too high in the back. You just have to move it around a bit until it's more comfortable. That, and padded shorts are the way to go! Good luck!
  • I know hearing that hurt. Others here have already given you good advice about immaturity, etc. I just want to tell you that the older I get, the more I see that Karma really is a b*tch. The old saying: What goes around, comes around? It really is true. Those folks that laughed at you? They will get some form of…
  • My usual Witch costume. I finally have all the parts in the same place at the same time! Look out kids! Hubby and I usually decorate the front of the house, lights, candles, spider webs, and sit out and hand out candy. We also have a couple of weeping mulberry trees next to our driveway that stay pretty thick with leaves…
  • Two of our dogs came from pounds. One was found by a friend, wandering in the park, in the middle of a below zero cold spell. They couldn't keep him, so we took him. All three have been great dogs! We like big dogs, so I really haven't any advice on what breed to get, just to tell you not to give up on shelter or pound…
  • Love it! I still remember an old Bloom County cartoon where Opus wanted liposuction with this huge vaccum cleaner, so this makes me laugh!
  • I want my chubby (really fat) friends from high school who don't think it can be done, to look at me and think: Wow! If Kat did this with arthritis and prosthetic knees and a hip, I CAN do this too!
  • Chalk it up to ignorance and see this guy as little as possible. Your hubby KNOWS he can't drink and why, he told his brother that and the guy was still a jerk. You can't fix stupid! Don't let it upset you.
  • Totally off topic> Why is it that EVERY single time someone mentions "Hookers and Blow" for ANY reason, I collapse into a chubby pile of giggles? For some reason, I find that phrase HILARIOUS! Thanks, I needed a giggle fit. :flowerforyou:
  • Firefly Torchwood The X-Files Stargate Atlantis
  • I'd definitely have to "taste" them, then have a couple more to ensure they were really good and then, much later, I'd probably just want even more to munch on...... I hope it's a BIG tray....:wink:
  • What fisherlassie said! Less expensive and still motivating! You can also find some nice, high-end clothes at the nicer shops, so if you lose quickly and they don't fit for long, you won't feel so bad about the cost. Maybe I'm just cheap, but that's what I would do.
  • Miss Moocher Dentzler, (Miss Moocher was a cat.)
  • I haven't spent more than $100 this year on clothes. I've been shopping in my own closet from all the stuff I had that didn't fit. I did spend $360 on 3 pair of very supportive, read that as ugly, old lady, shoes. I had to have them as all the other shoes I had either were too big or had no support. I HATE having joint and…

  • This is so true! Best post ever! :drinker:
  • Niiiiice! VERY nice!
  • Congratulations and thank your for wanting to serve your country! "Once a Marine, Always a Marine!"
  • You're serious about getting healthy and they aren't. You'll know if you're overdoing it. You'll hurt all the time and be tired all the time. Doesn't sound like what you're describing. You sound active and healthy! Keep at it and don't let them use the word 'obsessed' when they really are jealous of your "dedication!"
  • I've had a KitchenAid for about 3 or 4 years now. I use it a few times a month and I love it. I had a Sunbeam a while ago before this one and although it worked well, it wasn't as powerful as the KitchenAid and only lasted a year or two. My KA came with a whisk and a measuring cup thing. Works great to crack eggs in the…
  • Our son is a pastry chef. He likes to tell everyone he is a "Master Baker." Everytime he says it, we all start giggling and then give up and just laugh until we're finished.
  • Whatever the surgery, follow your doctor's orders. Don't be too quick to exercise too hard. Depending on what kind of surgery it is, s/he could say not to exercise for up to 6 weeks. For the sake of healing, listen to the doc. ASK when you see the doc after surgery and ASK specifically what you can and cannot do. I had a…
  • Different approaches work for different people. They ALL work, just pick one and get started! My own approach has been--One day at a time. Soon, all those "one days" add up to a whole lot of accomplishment, weight loss and daily exercise. Don't beat yourself up over a day you skipped exercising or ate a little too much.…
