God's Sick Sense of Humor
I've, by choise, not had partner sex in a very long time. I prefer to have meaningful sex and it would seem that I'm picky. I'm ok with this most of the time, but every once in a while it slaps me in the face. My picture is a potato that I found in the bag of potatoes I bought last week. Really? Did I need the reminder?…

kettlebells
I'm new to the kettlebell craze. I am reading the 4 hour body and they say to do the kettlebell swing as on of the workouts. The book lacks any directions as to how much weight to do this with. I'm not strong at all so I'm thinking a low number would be good. What weight have you started with or what has been your…

Dreams , Hopes, and Wishes
Do you have anything that you always thought you would do but haven't? It could be anything at all. I have always thought I would like to write a book. I even went to a reader once who was reading me and, amongst a lot of other interesting stuff she told me, she said I should write a book...it was in my stars! LOL This was…

Need some help being understanding.
I have a lot of weight to loose. I have to loose 70 pounds just to get out of the "obese" column and into the "Over weight" column. In total I have 105 pounds to loose to be at a healthy weight. Not slim, not skinny, just healthy. Slim and skinny would be 140 pounds lost. There is someone who I know who is trying to loose…

I find solice in it when I'm stuggling and hope in it when I think the world has lost all control. It came to me that it…

Kraft foods mag
About four times a year, I get a wonderful magazine from Kraft Foods full of wonderful recipes. The pictures are colorful, and always makes me want to run to the kitchen and cook my way from front to back! Not all of the recipes have the nutrition broken down but most do. The recipes are simple but creative and season…

Table For One...
I live alone and thus find sometimes that it is a challenge to eat food before it goes bad. Case in point. I love making mini pizzas with multi-whole grain light English muffins, pizza sauce, 2% mozzarella, veggies and turkey pepperoni, But I find that the unused part of the pizza sauce spoils before I can use it. Well. I…

I want to know how you gage the level of difficulty on swimming. It lists general, light/moderate, and fast/vigerious. It also doesn't list lap swimming on any stroke but freestyle.

Bed Check
So, I was just curious... Do you make your bed? If it takes you three minutes to make your bed every day, from the age of five to the age of 55 you have spent 912.5 hours or 38 days making your bed. I don't know about you but I think I can find something more fun to do with 912.5 hours of my life besides making a bed.

Why Wait to Live?
This was my vanity plates on my PT Cruiser when I first got it. It's my version of "Live for Today." I have always felt very strongly about this mantra. Last Friday my sister Wendy's father-in-law Larry went in to the doctor feeling sick and having pains in his abdomen. They found that it was his gallbladder and planned to…
