Active enough?

missybear @missybear (11391) • United States 21 Apr 12

I've never been one to go to the Gym or exercise period. Don't get me wrong I tried some routine exercise for a couple of weeks but it just isn't for me. I work 8 hours a day and 90 percent of my job is walking, on my days off...

ErinCW I've never been one to want to go to the gym. To be honest, exercise is something that I've always found to be really zen like and I've always found that having other people around me feels distracting. My all time favourite thing to do used to be to run. I...

Do you ever actually COMPLETE your to do lists?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 15 Mar 12

I am an over-achiever when it comes to making to do lists. I made one for yesterday and it was almost a page long - but I managed to get a little under half of it done, which is a disappointing feeling! I realized I love making...

ErinCW I'm a big "lister". I write lists about everything. I have no idea why I'm so hell bent on it, but I am. However I am like you and never actually cross everything off the list. I agree that maybe I'm setting my daily "to do list" goals too high making it...

At my work place, people are getting sick one by one, it was a contagious virus spreading out in my workplace, everyone take their turn. Last week, if you had read my post here, I got runny nose and sore throat for over 2 days....

ErinCW I big on the disinfectant. I think I am a bit of a germaphobe though... Office spaces freak me out a bit in regards to germs because it always feels like someone is sneezing or coughing and not washing their hands. Picking something up and then walking over...

Good Habits, Bad habits.

CzarinaM19 @CzarinaM19 (115) • Philippines 18 Apr 12

I use to eat everything on my plate, but now I can't seem to finish everything or "want to finish everything", even if it's only one spoonful left. I have this habit of putting food on my plate and leaving a little bit to throw on...

ErinCW I have heard about doing that somewhere...leaving a little food on your plate. It was for dieting purposes, but for some reason I seem to think it was an actual lifestyle change article that I was reading. It makes perfect sense because I think a lot of us...

I need to go back to work to rest!

jillhill @jillhill (37354) • United States 18 Apr 12

ErinCW I think our bodies need more than a day off. Sometimes even two isn't enough. We work and work and work and then finally get a day off and it takes our bodies that entire day to just relax and get used to the idea. Then if we are lucky and have a second day...

Getting tired and bored with my job

corrycrystal @corrycrystal (1775) • Malaysia 17 Apr 12

The place I work at isn't bad. The first year I joined the team, I received a bonus of 1.5 month salary and an increment and 2nd year bonus of 2 months salary again with increment. The boss is okay, there are 2,3 workmates who are...

ErinCW Is it possible to put together a request for staff with proof that you need to hire? If so, I would do so to allievate some of your workload. It sounds as if you are in a job that you can excel at and that you have climbed the ladder so to speak. Meaning it...

ErinCW We had a few different wedding songs at our wedding. One we used for my walk down the isle. Most people use the wedding march I think, but we wanted to do something different so we used a classical piano song that was really romantic. Then we had a more modern...

ErinCW My lifestyle used to dictate that I stay up really super late and sleep really late in the mornings. I thought at the time that I enjoyed it because who else gets to sleep in late and not really worry about it. (my job was not a morning one). However, life...

You are Amazing!

p1kef1sh @p1kef1sh (45681) 17 Apr 12

The human body can only bear so much pain (47 units - not sure how they are measured). Yet when a woman gives birth she must experience a further 10% on top of that. The equivalent of breaking 20 bones at the same time. I am truly...

ErinCW Wow, that's impressive. I just had my first child 1 year ago today and did it 100% naturally, no meds. I knew it hurt more than anything I had ever experienced, but it was a different kind of pain. A pain that seemed doable. A pain that wasn't going to stop me...

Do you do couponing?

DiaJ88 @DiaJ88 (170) • Singapore 17 Apr 12

I have watched a few episodes of Extreme Couponing and was really amazed how a couponer (a person who uses the coupon) shop in a grocery store and has a bill of $230. It was then reduced by the coupons and the lady end up paying...

ErinCW I was honestly thinking about this earlier today. I have yet to see an episode of extreme couponing, but I think I might have to catch one sometime. I know a lot of people who coupon and they seem to do well for themselves. My husband and I were just talking...

ErinCW My husband has told me a few times now that I "saved him". That if it weren't for me he would probably be dead or be a person that he knew he shouldn't be or wouldn't like to be. Although I told him that it wasn't me that turned his life into what it is today,...

ErinCW My son slept in his crib in our room from the day we brought him home until he was 6 months old. To be honest though, I would have only kept him in there until he was 3 months old had it not been for needing to re-arrange bedrooms of 3 other kids to make room...

When making your own baby food, do you have to use organic?

kcwheeler @kcwheeler (23) • Canada 6 Mar 12

I have been making my own baby food for a month now, and I dont understand why if peels and skins are removed, it is so important to use organic items. The main reason for making your own baby food is usually cost savings, and it...
