when i was doing esthetics .. my youngest client was 11 yrs old ... for waxing ... mind you my oldest was 65 (brazilian .. eeks .. go grandma .. lol) i have always thought about this since i started in esthetics (i unfortunately left esthetics to drive heavy haulers) that if your child is ready to start shaving her legs and what not ... its time to start waxing .. just my 2 cents |

( i know, women do that stuff to but its more associated with guys) ... so i have to find ways to feel/be more feminine (just for myself) coffin .. thats cool ... i love to dress cute especially if you can find those really cute dresses that are fun, flirty and look awesome on "you" (the general you, whoever you may be .. lol anyways ... i know what i do to feel that way .. just a question on what other ladies do to acheive that ... its fun a fun quiestion .. lol cheers y'all Shawna |

Heya caver ... nice to see you back .. and hi to the newbies ... Well i have finally settled into my routines and enjoying them ... my calorie counts are usually good unless its for a b-day or something (thank God that i live in BC near the inlaws opposed to alberta near my family, in my family there is a celebration every month and we are Ukrainian ... not a good thing when you are trying to lose weight .. I know why babas (grandmas) are short and round .. lmao) too funny ... anyways .. I started walking again since the weather has warmed up (winter blues are subsiding .. yay!!!) ... the good thing about that .. is that where i live, i am surrounded by hills and mountains .. so its pretty much all uphill walking ... yay calorie burning ... lmao ... now what i have to do is figure out where the heck i am getting all my carbs from so i can cut them back ... and figure a way to get more protien into my diet without eating nuts or drinking milk (i think protien powder is the way i am leaning) ... but on a high note .. i've lost 10lbs in 5 weeks ,, which is awesome cuz its not extreme weight lose but a steady weightloss ... i'm proud of me ... lol ... anyways .. i could babble all day today it seems like so i will stop here .. lmao cheers everyone .. and like i said before .. add me to your friends list if you wish .. i love company .. lol shawna |

hey there ... i had the PRK done ... the of the surgery .. i needed a ride home and stayed in the darkest closet i could find .. popped 2 of the T3s they perscribed to me and went to bed .. the next day i was a lil light sensitive but was able to go about most of my daily routines ... returned to work a few days later .. just cuz i work in a dust filled environment ... i followed the care instructions and had no problems ... the first day is the worst after that its pretty much a cake walk Edit: just gotta say .. i sometimes miss wearing glasses and changing my eye colour with contacts ... but i am glad i had it done |

| Foods | Green Tea buying on the web | Feb 19 2009 17:40 (UTC) |
|
you can buy green tea at any asian market thats around you ... (i hate buying things off the web .. never know if you can trust it) .. i buy mine at superstore (has decent asian and indian selection) or TNT market (depending on which city i am in .. i live in Canada so i don't know American markets) .. but the stuff i buy from the markets here is called "UJInoTSUYU" japanese green tea ... its a loose tea so you would may want to pick up a strainer or a small spice ball, or just let the tea sit at the bottom of your cup (your choice) ... Cheers Shawna |

yearn to lablled a non-smoker, i have thought about using many aides out there .. but they all seem hit or miss ... what i really need is to be around non-smokers 24/7 (unfortunately can't always happen), i don't smoke around non smokers and honestly dont crave a cigerette when i am with them ... i know this is gonna be a huge struggle for me no matter which way i choose to go about it for the simple fact that my sin-in (aka:b/f) is a smoker and a heavy one at that ... and he has stated he is not ready to quit ... hes supportive of me when i do try and doesnt beat me down when i fail (which is nice) .. just cant wait to finally succeed ... i know i will one of these times |

Enchanted I think the only reason you have struck a nerve with everyone is cuz your original statement sounded very harsh .. made her sound like she hasn't even tried or even wants to ... but if you reread her second last paragraph it does sound like she wants it to work if he can grow and take some responsibility .. pretty much .. she has left it up to him to figure out what he wants and in the mean time she will try to provide what she can for her children .. cheers |

Welcome to your 30's!!! I loved turning 30, always looked forward to it actually, when I was in my 20's, I always admired the confidence of the women in their 30's.. they just seemed happier, more comfortable and confident with themselves .. I love being in my 30's .. I know i hold my head up higher and although i'm not a danty thing I still think i'm one hell off a catch now ... as opposed to being 29 and thinking i should still have my 23yr old body (cuz at 24 is when gravity found me) .. lmao .. Anyways .. toot your horn, raise your glass, cuz 30's are where it's at ... confidence in yourself is all ya need !!!!!!! |

enchanted your assuming that she is just looking for an easy way out and that she hasn't put any effort in making the relationship work, if that was true, do you think she would have stuck around for the 4.5yrs, offering to work, using their saving (and i use the word "their" cuz most couples after 4yrs would consider all money as a joint thing) to pick up the slack while he was not working. Caring for the kids 24/7 herself (and i will say 90% of the time, cuz there might have been a time or two he had changed a diaper). And as for comprimise, the example she used about him wanting to take 1.5hr drive to see a friend that was to be coming to them a couple of days and her asking him to wait cuz funds are tight, made sense to me. She didn't say that when the friend got there that he couldnt do anything, she just asked him to wait due to the funds. To me, from what i have read in her post, it sounds that she has hit the end of the line. you are taking her action as selfish (maybe she could have worded it better) but i am pretty sure its not just her she was thinking about when she asked him to leave. Now you say there was no abuse, and she has refered that there has been no physical abuse, but you can definately read the mental abuse he has put her thru. the segregation from her friends/family, the isolation of not being able to work (and yes i do think he pretty much stopped her from working), the numerous days hyadous after a fight (which i would bet started out as her trying to have some sort of discussion on how things were and how to make things work .. which exculated into a fight cuz he figures all is honkey dorry).. and the fact while he was on these LOA's, absolutely no contact .. come on now .. if you were in her shoes would you stand for it ... seriously.. remember its not a new relationship and women in general (and i know this does not mean all women), would prefer to keep their family as a whole and would do whatever it takes to do so. for her to say, thats it, I had enough, I will go at this alone and I will rise to the challenge (btw, it wasn't her who had brought up all the aides that she can use), should show you that after 4.5yrs she has ran outta options .. |

ok .. lol .. i think you might have misunderstood my reply cuz of the word beginning (honeymoon is over, the excitement of exploring a new body has faded) .. what i am saying is that one can't be in the mood for all the time .. i know when i am feeling down or have a lot on my mind (stressed), sex is not the first thing on my mind .. doesn't make my relationship anyless secure .. can you honestly say you want it everyday? or do you have days where you think .. i love ya honey but i'm just not in the mood ... so they hit a lull, i don't know a single couple who hasnt .. now granted if it starts to go on for a month or so i would start to get worried or his/her personality started to change and it starts to send up red flags i would be worried .. but if the guy/gal is just bummed/stressed and his/her affection towards you hasnt really changed (still gets hugs, kisses, emotional support, etc .. ) then i wouldnt worry .. but in the end it comes down to what do you think? .. take in account the times you 2 do spend together .. is it a wham bam thank you mame or is it more intense? .. its not always quantity Cheers ps: i don't always put my thoughts into words properly .. sometimes they come out confusing |

Ha ha ... have to giggle at this .. just for the simple fact i am going thru it too .. and we have been together for just over 2 yrs .. but i'm not to worried .. its just the ebb and flo of a relationship .. it seems to line up with his emotions (or mine for that matter), if he is down or stressed out we hit a lil dry spell .. when things are going great, they definately go great ...things will pick up again like they were in the beginning and then they will slow down again ... its normal (from my experiences anyways) ... cheers |

Hey caver .. i hear where you're coming from ... i'm trying something new ... ok well its not new but i havent done it since i was a kid ... my toes have taken a beating, i'm sweating up a storm and constantly winded .. lol .. but Jumping Rope seems to be helping me .. mind you I just started .. I do 10min here and 10min there .. Papa ... i am looking forward to becoming somewhat of a nomad .. its gonna be intresting to say the least .. but at least i have a wicked job and a wicked company that we are able to live and plug in on site ... not too many companies will let you do that .. definately helps the pocket book .. and being seasonal helps the ability to travel in the winter ... lol ... but I am holding some excitement back just in case something goes arye (however you spell it) .. cheers |

Papa it is beautiful here .. but to be honest I can't wait to go back to alberta for work ... Thats the only thing wrong with this place .. not too many jobs that pay what I am use to or need ... lol ... but our short term plan has changed abit .. the b/f and I are getting a 5th wheel (to live in yr round, upgrade as we go) and heading back to alberta to work and then head to the states for the winter (figure a couple of yrs will be fun) since we are a couple of DINKs (double income, no kids) why not... Hey everyone I came across this challenge on youtube the other day .. if you go to youtube type in power-10 .. should bring up the video ... It's a ten week challenge "Transformation Super Challenge" is what it is called. I have joined it, can't hurt, any support and insight is always welcomed right?! I'd suggest checking it out. They are also on facebook for those of you on there too. Cheers |
