RebeccaLynn @RebeccaLynn (2256) • United States 13 Mar 11

Have you had a heart attack?

RebeccaLynn @RebeccaLynn (2256) • United States 13 Mar 11

I did when I was 36. I'm 38 now. But I wonder how many people under 60 have had one. I also wonder; how long did your' chest hurt after stent insertion? Mine hurt for a year and now I get nervous over the slightest twinge in my...

Do you ever enjoy a glass of wine before bed?

RebeccaLynn @RebeccaLynn (2256) • United States 13 Mar 11

I have recently discovered a sweet red wine that wondeful. I've noticed that if I enjoy a glass before bed, I sleep much better. Just one glass, mind you. I'm not a lush. Does anyone else out there enjoy wine before bed?

Ladies - Do you wear make-up everyday?

RebeccaLynn @RebeccaLynn (2256) • United States 21 Nov 08

Since becoming a mother and moving literally into the middle of a forest, I only wear make-up if I have to. Which isn't very often. Do you wear make-up everyday or just when the mood strikes you? Or do you just wear it when you...
