when we bought our house in december, we had issues with the lender... countrywide. half way thru escrow they decided they couldn't do our loan!!! what!?! so we scrambled to find a new lender, got one, but ended up moving into the house before we actually closed. all ended well, but everytime i drive by the countrywide…

i love this dvd! great for bellydancers who want to drill, and she has fun combinations too. if you do the whole thing its a great aerobic workout and tons of fun. keep on shimmying, em

assuming you ate enough during the day, i suggest drinking water or tea. i used to get hungry right before bed, so i'd drink a big mug of tea. it fills my stomach, and helps my wind down. you could also try saving some of your calories for later in the evening. em:flowerforyou:

i've thought about trying yoga to improve my flexibility, breathing, and strength for dancing. most of the dancers i love also practice yoga (ie rachel brice's back bends to turkish drops). any recommendations on dvd's for beginners? i have no interest in the spiritual side of yoga, so please nothing that focuses primarily…

good luck!:flowerforyou:

wow, i thought i was the only one who stopped believing god cuz i got dumped!! another atheist joins the ranks of the pissed and jaded! woo hoo! i also fantisized (waaaay too much) about torturing my ex. i never wanted him dead, just in extreme pain. i was a little messed up back then, but i totally get it. then i got to a…

get out! get out now!!!

i would start looking for another job. from my own experience with a company that knowingly broke their own rules (especially nepotism), the higher ups are aware, and they don't want to hear complaints about it. maybe talk to hr, and if they gloss over it or don't really do anything, then you know what the situation really…

sexy ladies:love:

i might try it if it wasn't called sludge. how bout 'happy goo'?:laugh:

screw your mom, you look HOT in your picture! considering the amount stress you're under, gaining only 4 pounds is a huge accomplishment! you should be proud of yourself for that. also, you're an amazing woman for caring for your father. don't let her comment ruin your day or your progress. em:flowerforyou:

i've been dancing for about 4 years now. Quenofcrazzy-you should absolutely try it! my first class i went alone, but i now have a ton of new friends!

i'm in salinas, near big sur. we're ok, smoke not too bad. but its so sad to see the wilderness burn, people losing homes, and no end in sight.

thats it. i'm starting a new thread. this is too good to pass up!

slapping the mattress:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

doing it, doing the deed, doing the nasty, knocking boots (so early 90's)

this could be a whole thread unto itself... euphemisms for sex.

necessary? probably not... but i think a couple bucks is ok if those things help you stick to your goals and stay healthy. just make sure you use them:tongue:

is playing the piano a euphemism for sex? if yes, i'd say anthing by Al Green. one year for christmas, i danced for my hubby to 'simply beautiful'. lots of fun that night!

mmmmm guacamole (drool)

about 90 calories for a glass of white, i think red is more like 110. not too bad:ohwell:

i totally budget in wine calories:blushing: i'm not an alcoholic either, i just like wine!

Yes, that is a HUGE turn on!!! All women secretly love that regardless of what they say... admit it ladies.

hey minnie, congrats on your loss!! i think a lot of people lose a lot in the beginning and then it tapers off. same thing happened to me, and, you're right, its a great motivator in the beginning. keep up the great work. em:flowerforyou:

i feel really selfish even complaining about that now. people have lost homes, so i should very grateful that my house is safe and sprinklered. it also really bothers me that firefighters have been injured trying to stop this fire when prescribed burns could have prevented this in the first place. damn government…

hmm, money as a motivator. sounds effective to me! good luck with that!

i was on bcp, taking them constantly so i wouldn't have a period. they made my bp dangerously high and i had no clue. a couple of times, i felt weird, like my heart was beating out of my chest. it actually woke me up one night. went to the doctor for an annual, and ended up switching medications. if you feel weird, its…

what is that? is it a real game?

another fire in big sur/ ventana wilderness, this one destroying homes and not at all contained. i was so looking forward to hiking and backpacking this summer, but i don't know what will be left... everyone please send good vibes to all the firefighters working way too hard right now in california. if only we could…
