It's been a trying week for exercising! Somehow, Monday and Tuesday were totally out! Wednesday, I got my mojo back, determined to continue what I've started and did the deed! Thursday was fine. Working out 30 mins after work, a combination of weights, jump rope and my Performance machine! Friday, no dice. I got home late, took my son and daughter to get Chinese and to the Game Stop. Today I had planned on getting an hour in but hubby had to go to the dentist and that took up ...
1) Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety-one? 2) If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea...does that mean that one out of five enjoys it? 3) Why do croutons come in airtight packages? Aren't they just stale bread to begin with? 4) If people from Poland are called Poles, then why aren't people from Holland called Holes? 5) If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled? 6) Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist, but a person w...
1) "What did you do to your hair?" Oh no he didn't! Especially if she spent a lot of money on her new do, don't say anything negative! And don't dare say "You look different"! 2) "They both look the same to me." When your wife, girlfriend, significant other asks your opinion, don't' say that! Actually give an opinion, no guess work, no fancy speech and especially show that you do care! 3) "Relax." Oh no, you know you asked for it! Her response might be, "Are y...
Having an alias is OK, nothing wrong with that at all. I have an alias, but some of you know my real name (and vice versa). I've often wondered about the people who do create fake persona's though, what do they get out of doing that? Notoriety, perhaps! Is that how they can really be themselves or 'act real' - if they are real, they don't need to put on an act, wouldn't you agree?! It seems that some people do get a kick out of pretending though. Another thing that I never unders...
I guess we should all be used to this by now, after all, inflation doesn't just happens to the cost of your food, or insurance or clothing or even your taxes! It also happens to buying a postage stamp. The cost of mailing a letter by regular First Class mail will cost you a penny more in May of this year! Currently the cost of mailing a letter is $0.41, so that will mean $0.42 for a First Class mail. What I hate about this is having to buy that extra penny postage stamps so that I can...
It hasn't been a bad week. In fact the week didn't begin to good for me where exercise is concerned. I was feeling really cruddy on Monday. Between my allergies (which seems to have begun early this season) and my body, there seemed to have been a conspiracy a foot. I didn't work out at the beginning of the week, Monday or Tuesday, and I decided not to beat myself up over it! OK, I did, just a little! Until I literally told myself to stop! What, don't you talk to yourself too? It ...
I just don't get it about people some time. Why are they such assholes? They do things to hurt others who don't deserve it, especially when they are in a position to do it! Life is too short to be so mean and selfish. There are times when people are in a bad mood, that is a given. Anger makes people do the most god awful things sometimes. When someone is truly sorry, they say it and move on and sometimes they are the better for it. When they keep hate and anger in, they become ...
In an office setting everyone, and I mean everyone communicates by Email. If you can tell me of any office that doesn't, then I would be very surprised about that! Even if everyone doesn't have a computer to use, there is at least one main personnel who has a computer and should be able to inform and alert the team of what is going on. Take for example if you have scheduled a big meeting and you have informed everyone, via Email, what they will be doing, got information together, gave ...

I had my first time at the gym this past week. My oldest picked up her little sister from school, I had time to kill. My body made the motion of getting up, changing into work out clothes; while my mind was screaming "no, no, no....you're too tired...!" Thank heavens I didn't listen! I had a great 30 mins at the gym and look forward to doing it again. In the meantime I work out as usual at home, whenever I can. I've been making sure though to get up and take 30 mins to work out befo...
I've never heard of this, but an all-chocolate room was unveiled in Manhattan today! That's ALL Chocolate, EVERYTHING made of the good stuff! The walls, the furniture, the bulbs in the chandelier, the paintings hanging on the wall! Impressive! Godiva is doing it as a promotion, they have an annual contest (I wasn't even aware of this)! This year, purchase a Godiva chocolate costing $23 or more and you might be the lucky one to win a weekend for two stay in the chocolate room they plan...
"If you don't know me by now, you'll will never, ever know me...." Some of you probably recognize those words. If you don't, they are the beginning sentence to one of the most beautiful, mournful love songs! Some men don't have a clue when their wife or significant other is pissed off at them. Mine gets that way sometimes! In fact, I think he deliberately ignores the signals just because he doesn't want a fight! It left me steaming, while he went out to hang with the guys, on a nigh...

If there was ever an easy question to respond to, this one is surely it! For me, being rich of course! Even in my quest to be fit, surely I would rather be rich than fit? Of course! The answer to me is quite easy. Having the money to utilize quite freely without worrying about something else, I can hire a personal trainer, a chef, get new gym equipment, heck, get a gym! Some people, who responded to a recent poll by Women’s Day and AOL Body , as reported by Dan Fle...
