Congratulations on the new job! We have a few ball chairs in our office. At $75 each they are a bargain and help with core muscles. Help you sit up straight and mindful of the need to not get tied to your chair! I am buying one for home.

Hard-boiled eggs travel well. We do honey stirred into our favorite nut butter in wraps/flatbread.

My mom always admonished that you need to wear a bra if you could hold up a pencil ..... I think I am at the typewriter stage. They aren't nearly as much fun as they are trouble. Lay on your back and where do real ones go? Under your arm. Have a poor bra and you look older than you are. Attracting unwanted attention.…

Two Leaves and A Bud - Orange Sencha Green Tea The first green tea that hasn't tasted like alfalfa to me! They have other wonderful teas - Chai and Assam brewed together over ice - yum! Highly recommend you checking out their website. I only found them in a store once.

Why? Because they are better than Krispy Kreme :wink: :laugh: They are my downfall too....love Dunkin'. Best thing - I don't live in the right part of the country any more or I would likely not be on this site! Have him hide them until they are stale?

Can't be....... you are twins.......separated at birth......... right? :wink: Amazing. And only a year! Gees, you are so right "who would have known.........." Congratulations!

I have some but haven't tried it yet. I found it at my local health food store http://bellplantation.com/

Thank YOU for asking ........ I'll be embarrassed right along with you :embarassed:

My opinion is that you should write a book with all these bits of wisdom you collect from these experiences. SAVE your money for a marriage counselor because you're never gonna win! But I give you kudos for trying. Cheers!

Yep, pay it. Clearing up a mistake on their part could only be good karma for you. Is it such a large amount that it is really worth stiffing them? My story: Bought a couple of skirts and a hat at a large-sized womens store (who shall remain nameless). My bill was lower than expected and even the clerk commented on…

South African and Irish accents - tied for me

No, I would not worry. Our high school offers weight training for different athletics. Just do a little research about how to increase weights safely for his age. Good luck!

Looks like you reached a couple of goals! Congratulations on BOTH!

We have some of Central Valleyers here! Yep, I know where Arnold is :laugh: Fresno - Patterson .... hooray! :smooched: Yes, early is cooler, but I am NOT a morning person and just can't get up early for those workouts. I swim after work tho' and then bike home since the sun is up later. Turlock drivers are..... not…

Turlock .... never heard of it? Not surprised.... directly west of Yosemite in the Central Valley. Yep, it's been warm lately.

I ride my bike home from work. There is a left-turn where I am in the lane where the cars go. Last year, I could trip the signal (you know the in-grounds sensors are triggered by weight). This year - I can't get the light to change because I'm not heavy enough to trigger to sensor! Now, I just run lights and avoid…

They don't eat enough butter to swim????

This or agave syrup. It has 16 gms of carbs in 1 Tblsp but sweetness is 1.5 times of sugar, so I only use 1 tsp in my coffee. And it is low glycemic if that is of importance to you.

Wow. And out of the mouths of babes! I'm smiling. Good for you.

And I'M in Turlock! Between Modesto and Fresno! Cheers.

It happens to me when I worry about money. So, I would agree with the above poster who said STRESS!

Press the plastic wrap close to the cut edge or you can also cut the brown edge off and it's still fresh underneath. I eat mine on toast - preferably sourdough bread! And before ANYONE says it - yes, I live in California - grew up here and having this for breakfast - blame my mom!

When I was married, it sometimes felt like I was alone. And then I stopped buying into the "Hallmark" hype. It helped. Commercialism, again, fuels feelings of emptiness, disappointment, and inadequacy. Finding love within myself for myself was an important step in realizing that loving myself was as critical as the love I…

Yeah for you! THE BEST reason for losing weight! I hope your doctor was suitably impressed as we all are.

Not the fresh ones off the stalk........ with bacon ....... or lemon butter ........... okay - I'm heading home to make sauteed brussels sprouts. (Even the 10-year old likes them).

Eating back your exercise calories. Stick a fork in it!

A mental gratitude journal - what a great idea. I'm blatantly copying your idea. I will tell them where I got it tho' :flowerforyou:
