MaryTheIceCube Try a program called Couch to 5K... this might help to improve your running time. Also, I've found that signing myself up for events such as a 5K or a 10K really pushes me to keep on track as far as training goes. That way my practice isn't just open-ended,...

MaryTheIceCube Thank you for your suggestion - I appreciate it! However, we've found that when we try this with our son, a lot of times it just makes him more upset/angry at us, he digs his heels in even harder and becomes even more resistant to doing what we've told him to...

MaryTheIceCube Yes, I am able to play games and surf the web when I am not busy at work. I try to do it only when I have no work to get done, but sometimes I find it hard to take myself away from the fun things in order to get the work things done. However, I don't wish to...

MaryTheIceCube I've never been hypnotized, but I think it could have many benefits, like peacemaker said. I've read a little on it, as I'm curious about the human mind, how it works, what makes it tick, etc. I think I might like to be hypnotized someday. I also would like to...

Okay, I got to thinking about it the other day, I was chatting with my father who loves to cook, however, I had asked him what was for dinner, he said a really good home cooked meal, well when he told me, it was hamburger helper....

MaryTheIceCube I really don't consider Hamburger Helper to be "home cooking". Sure, there's some prep involved, but it's nothing like doing things from scratch! My fiance loves to cook. He does most everything from scratch, rarely uses boxes and cans. He makes homemade...

We had a family reunion that was coming up. And many of our family members that I have seen and never have seen before would be there. I wanted to attend this event so that I could meet many people in our family. So, my cousin...

MaryTheIceCube Why would anyone want to exclude another family member from a family reunion, or single them out as a 'guest' rather than an actual family member? I don't really understand that! No matter what, you're blood relatives with these people. They really ought to...

I myself like to listen, and by the same time learn form others' mistakes. But I'm wandering when I'll start to speak? Because I'm not such a talkative person. What about you?

MaryTheIceCube I like listening more so than talking. I've been this way for as long as I can remember. Lately, now that I have more confidence in myself, I seem to have more to say. However, it wasn't always like that, and most of the time I still prefer to listen rather...

MaryTheIceCube It depends on the day. Music videos, bass guitar lessons, tutorials and cover songs, tutorials on anything about which I wish to learn more. I use YouTube mostly as a learning tool. There are instructions and tutorials on almost anything you can think of!

MaryTheIceCube All the time! I really can't remember the last time I felt truly refreshed when I have to get up in the mornings. Always feeling tired, especially in the afternoon. I wish I could find something, or some way, to get a really refreshing, restful night's sleep!...

MaryTheIceCube Best of luck on your exam! I hope you do well, and hopefully after your studies are done, you will have much time to focus on playing the electric organ again and learning the guitar. I think music is very important in our lives and I try to fit in at least a...

MaryTheIceCube Thank you!! Yes, my biggest challenge has been very much similar to yours. Whenever my son does something that makes me angry or upset, I have to try and remain calm and patient, and remember that he is only six. He has definitely been teaching me much too, in...
