Todays exercise challenge...

EXERCISES FOR PEOPLE OVER 50...Oh what the hell... FOR ANYBODY!

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side.

With a 5-lb potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can.

Try to reach a full minute, and then relax.

Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer.

After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato sacks.

Then try 50-lb. potato sacks and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute. (I'm at this level.)

After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each of the sacks.

I found this on the Nutrisystem site ..Funny gals there...

True Love For Drew Barrymore?...

Could Drew Barrymore, who has had her heart broken time and time again, finally have found true love? It seems like it as her relationship with Justin Long (the Mac guy in the Windows vs. Mac commercials) continues to grow.
Drew was spotted canoodling with Justin Long at New Orleans air- port. Giggling and smiling, she seemed unable to keep her hands off Justin, who she has been dating since they met on the set of their new film 'He's Just Not That Into You', last September.
Not only does Drew's body language make it blindingly clear how she feels about her new man, but the feeling seems to be mutual.
In December, Justin spoke to magazine US Weekly about his blossoming relationship with Drew. He said: "I've been very fortunate. I just feel very blessed and very happy!"

Canoodling? There will be NO canoodling !
Do you think we should warn her ?...LOL!

Wicked Wednesday...

What kind of Warrior are you?

Saw this little quiz over at hopes and had to try it.Turns out there IS a reason why my friends ask my advice about misc. stuff. How sad for them...LOL!

Your sphere is Knight (Know Loyalty and Respect), and your class is Arms Master (Pragmatic and Stout).

You are an Advisor:

Your great sense of ethics and honor, as well as your practical knowledge of the world, makes you an excellent advisor and confidant to the people who are respectful of your ways, and to whom you will show respect in return.

Liu Bei, the well-meaning King of the ancient Shu kingdom in China, was not famous for his own accomplishments, but for the excellent quality of his generals, and the brilliance of his advisor of special repute, Zhuge Liang.

Breaking News!!

"The Boy" finally pulled his second front tooth! It was a struggle, but his persistence won out. When asked to comment on this wondrous accomplishment " The Boy" had this to say...



"First my tooth went this way..then it was backwards, then it stuck out, then it popped out!"

Update: We have now learned that our whistling and spitting talents are much improved. Sticking out our tongue is now considered cute and we have become fluent in that often attempted but never mastered "Daffy Duck" language...

Sufferin Sucotash!

Update: I have been informed by cartoon experts that Sylvester The Cat coined the above phrase.I say,I musta took a wrong turn in Albuquerque.

I wish they had mentioned beer...
