    Bare Minerals - love it!!

    I've been hooked on mineral make up for awhile now! The only issue I was having was finding a good match (I'm pretty pale with a definite yellow undertone.) In case anyone else is in the same boat or if you need a wider selection of shades, you might find the same success I have had with...

    Gold's Gym Cardio Workout for Wii!!!

    Thanks so much for the quick reply!!! I posted on the other Wii thread that I don't even know what the parts are called - the controller is the basic thing that comes with it, right? :o I think we'll probably have to have a bunch for the whole family, anyway, so I should be okay. I'll add...

    If you could pay someone to work out for you.....

    Laura, I feel like you do - some days when I'm feeling crappy, yes I'd hire someone, but for the most part, I'd do it myself. I like the way it feels to lift a heavy (well, heavy for me anyway haha! ) weight where you actually feel the muscle fibers pulling and can see them moving. I love the...

    Favorite Wii Games

    Wow! I saw Jerry's post about the Gold's Gym program and didn't know that I'd find even more info here today!!! :D We're just getting one this year as our family gift for Christmas and I have NO IDEA what to get, or if any of the bundles are really great deals or not... Besides games...

    Gold's Gym Cardio Workout for Wii!!!

    Thanks for the tip! I'd looked at this one online, but wasn't sure if it would be a good workout or not. We have the Wii on the list for our family Christmas gift and I was trying to find ways to make it useful. What accessories do you need for the Gold's Gym workout? Or does it come with...

    Thanksgiving Dinner Etiquette

    If it's something that's ruining your holiday, I think you need to be more firm about requesting/demanding help. Maybe you can practice a few different ways to ask until you're comfortable with it. Phrase it so there's no 'bad' answer: "Would you rather wash, dry, or put away?" "If you can...

    Men in shiny blue spandex

    All that impact and energy reminded me of the workouts (and legwarmers! :p ) that I drew me into working out waaaay back when! Those guys are hilarious, and I agree with the poster above - if this was a championship, I want to see the OTHER routines! I bet they would be a hoot to look at, too...

    Profits Before Patients - A PBS Interview w/Bill Moyers

    In my last job, I worked with coordinating medical benefits, and that's given me a different view of Medicare. Sometimes the cut-offs and run-around were enough to make me want to rip my hair out in frustration. And I'm a healthy, educated person with time to dedicate (since it was my job). I...

    Profits Before Patients - A PBS Interview w/Bill Moyers

    I'm totally caught between a rock and hard place. On the one hand, I agree that health care needs an overhaul and that there should be more affordable care available. But on the other hand, I am HORRIFIED that the government is proposing to SOLVE the PROBLEM!! ACK!!! What exactly have...

    Has anybody heard or doing goole success

    Be careful! I read an article about it being a scam. Do a search on Google Success scam and see what you get. I'm not sure if the scam is the kit or the actual sales opportunity, but it sounds like a lot of people are getting burned. Some of the articles touting the success stories are...

    Best Wedding Entrance Ever!

    OMG! I cried, too! It was so genuinely joyful and fun...I wish I knew them :D So many weddings are about appearances and making things look 'just so', but this one seems so full of happiness and celebration. And it wasn't just about making the bride look good, it was all of their friends...

    Mommy dilemma - what would you do?

    Strong 'ditto' to all of the above!! :D Staying in a stable, caring environment where he can grow and explore is the most important background your son needs for Kindergarten. I think, especially since he only has one more year, pulling him out at this point would be the worst thing to...

    Doing what's best for the kids?

    I grew up with parents that didn't get along (not abusive or anything, just constant fighting), but my mother said that her marriage vow didn't say 'unless we don't get along or something better comes along', so they stayed together. Was I affected by the bickering and tension? Maybe. But...

    Insanity!

    OMG! How cool is that?!?! That is the best motivation program I've ever heard of. Is your company hiring?! :D And now, because of this thread, I'm going to have to go look for Insanity clips...<sigh> This place is dangerous to my budget resolutions!!!

    Why is a little caffeine pill bad for me? Or is it?

    LMAO!!! I get your point, totally! It isn't a miracle worker, just a little boost :D Kathryn, maybe the difference is that some people are just not naturally morning people? I will never hop out of bed in the morning, raring to go. I'd like to try waking up on my own, but I might end up...

    Why is a little caffeine pill bad for me? Or is it?

    If it's just one pill, and that one pill is equal to the caffeine in two cups of coffee, I don't see why that would be a big deal. Do the people who have been cautioning you IRL drink coffee or cola products? Why would the pill form be so much worse, I wonder... That's really interesting...

    What color hose w/a black suit?

    So, um....HOW DID IT GO?!?!?! :D (If you want to share, that is....) I was thinking about you yesterday and was hoping for good things! I bet you looked great! :)

    Vita Mix, anyone?

    The Vita Mix is my second favorite appliance! :D (The first is a Keurig coffee maker, but that's a whole 'nother story!!) The Vita Mix makes juice, so it could be called a juicer, but it's a 'whole food' juicer - you throw EVERYTHING edible into it and it liquefies it, so you get the whole...

    What color hose w/a black suit?

    I was just catching up on the board after a long break and wanted to send you a HUGE good luck wish!!! I hope this works out - you sound so happy and excited and it's only the interview - the job must really be something! And at some point, you know you have to spill more details ;) I'll be...
