Birthday blues?

rainbow @rainbow (6761) 20 Mar 07

I remember looking forwards to being 16, 18, 21. 25 was ok, life was still an adventure and lots of good fun. 27 it all changed for I became a mum. 30 not too bad - just a number, not a big one Now 35 looms just a few days...

suedarr Happy Birthday Rainbow! Don't let it get you down too much, i turned the Big 40 in January, and there is not real difference. It's just a milestone nothing more. And yes, I'm still alive and kicking, just very busy these days and not as much time as I'd like...

Lottery...

howard96h @howard96h (11640) • New York, New York 9 Feb 07

I feel that you have to have luck to win something in the lottery. None of my numbers have ever come out. Has anyone ever hit the lottery or is the whole thing fixed?

suedarr Yes I have known three big lottery winners, one was my friend's brother who split the money with his parents and three siblings, another was a lady who played on my ex-husband's softball league, and the last was a co-worker again of my ex-husband's. I won...

suedarr Oh dear I can absolutely relate too!!! It's a neverending battle isn't it?! What is worse is I loathe housework, yet do want a clean house. Some days I just give up and say to heck with it, the mess will still be here inthe morning no matter what I do.

suedarr I tend to agree with Gabs' comment on this, in that just like everything else eggs are ok in moderation. I really think that is the key to successful dieting, not denying yourself, just making sure the portions are not huge.

have you ever put your ATM card into the machine and never got it back? What do you do if this happens to you?

suedarr I have never personally lost an ATM card to a bank machine before. With that said I hope I have not jinxed myself. If it did happen, what could I do beyond calling the banks 24 hour hotline and reporting what happened. Cheers!
