Work in short bursts. Get up and do some exercise, even jumping jacks. Throw some wash in. Stay

I was going to suggest taking a walk, but jumping around
aa
Agree with losing tail. An old cat just tends to walk around, not much jumping or

fast walk/weight lift/exercise machine only way to tone

Maybe crack - crack is whack! lol

My sister-in-law and I walk together several times a week. We don't walk on a flat surface
we walk around a park that is constantly up and down so we get a better work-out and it is much more enjoyable to have someone to walk with. I have also joined Curves and really enjoy that.
Yep. Just walk away. Nod a lot, and walk away even if they are in midsentence.
I even do this with my family if they start up. And when I start up myself (in my own mind) I distract myself and get onto doing something completely different. Some people thrive on negativity. I have enough problems getting my mind positive. Life is way too short to dwell on negativity. Just walk away and go smell a rose somewhere. Just my advice. :)
For the jumping --
My friends had a dog tht jumped constantly and we started just turning our backs to him every time he would try to jump on us. Everyone was instructed to do him that way every time. At the same time, the man of the house would harshly scold him. It took a while but finally he learned not to jump on people and he is a delight to be around now.
Jumping rope.
:o}
I will have to say no and like I said I could be jumping to conclusions.
The only way I could loan her money it to put it on a CC. We just spent most of our savings on our property/school tax bill. With DH and his "business" he tried to start and all that it cost us...we are pretty tight in the savings area. He did try really hard though.
She might just want to tell me that I have to postpone my trip I was going to take to see her next month. I already thought that with my job thing and then she told me yesterday that their car died (thus the reason I think she needs a loan or something).
Ugh - my stomach hurts just thinking about it.
Wow! Talk about jumping to conclusions...
No marriage, having sex, old men, teenage girls... That is a whole lot of opinion you are putting out there. Have you been in another person's home, or bedroom, for that matter, lately in order to obtain this information? I certainly hope not.
Or if you step on a crack
you break your mother's back. To this day I have an OCD thing where I can't step on cracks. I wonder if this is why.
above supposed to say - you crack me up!! nm

Hayseed you crack me up!!!
Don't hold back so much next time, tell us how you really feel. LOL. I love your up front and no nonsense attitude. You are a breath of fresh (or not so fresh from your avitar) air.
lol...right up there with pants below the crack! ick NM

That person looks like she is on crack and
also an alcoholic. She certainly looks years older than 55.
Got new site but wondering, anyone jumping ship?
I saw the new site but I just do not care for it as well as I have this one. What is everyone's thoughts?
shooting crack in the livingroom
I responded to this post and thought about it again this afternoon and it's really kind of funny how seriously we, me included, take some of these things. It is important, but not so serious, just so typical. It's not like she was shooting crack in the livingroom, or huffing/snuffing/snorting whatever is done with it. As far as I can tell we have not heard back from the original and I wonder what finally happened.
My 8 y.o. says it is Tempur-pedic. He's always fascinated with the jumping on the bed thing.
http://www.tempurpedic.com/
How about that guy on crack and heroin that won 27 million and blew it all
or should I say snorted/shot it all. That story was so unbelievable it was almost like it was set up as an experiment. Yikes.
My son goes outside with the dog & raps on the window...
startles the heck outta me! And he knows it, and loves to do it! I keep telling him he's gonna give me a heart attack one day.
what about window tint
that's another removal option, heavy window tint like the car tint that you apply with soap and water, available at Lowe's and such.
How about window shutters either outside or in - sm
that you can pull open or shut. They are usually on the outside of a house (look at old, old houses) but I am sure you could do the same thing inside, though you would need room on both sides of the window for them to open flat.
2- month window
and then there won't even be a way to give a bad rating of the dealer.
She probably wouldn't have made it though airport security with the crack pipe anyway.... LOL

I've had the Clapper, the old commercials crack us up. My husband uses the Buxton Bag for his ca
he really likes it, has a lot of different zipper compartments and is the perfect size for his camera. My aunt has the Buxton, too and she really likes it.
How to remove car window tinting sm
I've got some ideas off the internet using alcohol, Joy dish soap, ammonia, and wall paper steamer. Anyone else have any ideas? Mine is on the inside glass on all windows. It's 10 years old and really needs to be removed as it doesn't clean well anymore and smears so bad I can hardly see at night to drive. Any ideas out there? TIA.
Fog is not excused lateness. You look out window,

Sun exposure, yes -- through a window, no. YOU do some reading, please. nm

Go jump through your window, Chuck.

Hayseed..you crack me up.. I needed that. I was sitting here on the verge of tears..depressed..and
you made me laugh. Sadly, even her dad couldn't save her though. She lived with him but he was on the verge of a heart attack ( I feel his pain). He said he tried to avoid going home because he would get heart palpitations which I now recognize as anxiety that I also get around her. He just couldn't deal with it anymore. She drives everyone away and that hurts me too but yeah I keep thinking the only way I'll ever get away from her is enroll in a witness protection program..and of course, I feel guilty for wanting to get away from her.
My cat Molly jumped out a second story window
My cat Molly jumped out a second story window to get a bird once. She landed on her feet with the bird.
Has anyone done all the latest updates for Window and did you have any problems. nm

Sorry, but my holiday cheer has gone right out the window this year -sm
For the second time in 2 months, after never having had any problems with this in the past, my credit card number has been stolen and used fraudulently. I follow all the guidelines for using a credit card, etc., and check my account online constantly to make sure everything is okay (actually used to work in the fraud dept for a major credit card company) and yet again there are charges on there I have not done. That card is closed again and they are reissuing a new card number. Do I have to stop living in order that the little thieves of the world are able to provide for the people on their holiday list? Sorry, just really angry at this right now. Merry Christmas to me, huh? 
ok sk8girl, the window is wonderful and a really good thing
for your eyes. If you focus near and then you can focus out a window, you will save your eyes and type for about 20 more years than you would without a window. I lost my window and my eyes followed close behind. I love that you all have the same stacks of books I do, same bowl of almost food, required coffee mug and the fact that it looks like we all spend our lives right in that chair. ha ha.
Hubs did window cleaning as a teen & always got swamped w/folks wanting them

In our town, the Chinese restaurant has a painted sign on window: Hot Wing sold here. nm

Can anyone walk me through this?
I just got an ipod today and cannot get songs to download. I purchased some songs, and they are downloaded onto my computer, but I can't seem to get them onto my ipod. Could someone please walk me through step-by-step to do this? When I click on file, then copy to device, it tells me no device is detected, even though I have the connection to the computer and to the ipod. Help, please!!
That's exactly why I won't walk our dog
My husband and I have a golden retriever/lab mix. I am not an animal lover but do have compassion for animals. My husband is the animal lover. If my husband is out of town on business, I will not walk the dog. Just the smell of dog doo makes me gag and vomit. I will, however, let the dog loose in our yard and watch her to make sure she stays in our yard while she exercises, but I will not walk her because I wouldn't be able to clean up any messes.
As for fines, I would imagine there is some sort of punishment in our small town and I think there should be across the board. Our dog is trained to do her business in 1 area of the yard that my husband picks up weekly before mowing the grass. If I find doo anywhere else in my yard, I am not happy. We have 3 kids who like to run and play and know to stay out of the dog's area. Having to clean off their shoes because someone else was lazy with their dog infuriates me.
Way to go NY!!!!! Hope it comes to my hometown soon!
An exercise to try
Try putting one leg up across the other one and lean forward, leaning back and forth, then switch legs. That is supposed to help with that sciatic nerve kind of thing. Hope it helps you. It does me. Hope you feel better.
exercise
Have you got a dog?
I've got a 120 pound Great Pyrenees (kinda looks like a polar bear). I run/walk with him a coupla times a day...before my 6 a.m.shift, lunch time, after my shift is usually the longest walk, then again before bedtime...We just wander around the woods....If he smells a squirrel fart and I'm not looking directly at him he'll trip me up or pull me in a ditch/sinkhole. Also have a 12 lb cat that walks with us and tries to "sneak" the dog (hides in the bushes and darts out sitcking his tongue out as if to say "Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah! You're on a string and I'm not!).  Keeps ya on your toesI
It is cheap and quite a workout. Cat
Get some exercise
It will help tremendously. I start to get tired if I go more than a day or two without running on my treadmill or hitting the weights at the gym. It will help tremendously. As someone else said, it might not be a bad idea to get your thyroid checked out.
i try to walk more than a mile a day
How much did you walk? Every day? How many miles - sm
I have 60-80 to lose (80 pound weight loss being my HS/college weight) and cannot exercise right now except for walking (hurt my arm/shoulder). Since I cannot go to Curves right now until my shoulder is diagnosed and healed (will know the verdict Friday) I plan on getting into a walking plan right now since the weather has finally turned beautiful and am going to try to walk off at least 20 pounds before my OB/GYN appt in 5 weeks. Since you had so much success in 6 weeks of walking, I'd love to know the how much and how often you walked. TIA.
I walk to her videos too!
I have this one where they sing this "power walk" mantra in the background when it starts out. Then I have that song in my head the whole day! I think I'll just plug in my little MP3 player instead and find tunes that match the different paces, because although I enjoy the video immensely, that "music" has just gotta go! Oh, if you walk to her videos where she uses something called a "stretchy band," I found a 3-pack in varying resistance strengths at Walmart for $5.00. Total deal.
my guess is they take you for a walk!!
what a handful! But cute!
WALK THOSE BEAUTIES! LOL! nm

Autism Walk
Hello everybody,
I'm going to be walking for Walk Now For Autism on Sep. 20th of this year. It is a ways away but since this is such an important subject for me i'm trying to get started as early as i can. If you'd like to check it out, register yourself in a city near you, or donate, you can check out my website on their website:
http://www.walknowforautism.org/minneapolis/team/teamderrian
I appreciate your time,
Tanya
get out of the house and go for a walk
or a bike ride or a picnic. Sometimes I go outside and talk on the phone or watch my kids play. The point is to get out of the house and be outside.
Looking for music to exercise by - sm
I received an iTunes gift card for Christmas and am looking for music I can download to my iPod to exercise by. I'd really like exercise-specific music that includes a slower song or two for the warmup, then a steady faster rhythm for 30 minutes or so and then another slower song for the cooldown.
I suppose I could create my own list, but it would take me way too long to figure out 30 minutes' worth of songs with the same basic rhythm!
Any help sure would be appreciated. I'm so tired of feeling guilty every time I walk past the treadmill that I just "had" to have.
