Hi, Caren!! Abt pain-that's always there to some degree. Quitting is an 'easy way out' of solving the issue. I've known what pain is because of my illness-It's always important to have the fortitude-make the rt decisions-then look forward!! That's been my experience over the past 6 yrs. Pse keep in touch!!

unfortunately 'cost cutting' causes the ax 2 fall at the wrong place. I feel that all colleges/universities offer useless subjects/degrees-forgetting the priorities. Reality is that everyone must spend money wisely-what abt administration costs?

Hello, Caren!! I agree with that!! I would like 2 add that I rarely had a reason 2 smile 4 many yrs-that's changed now. Depression is nothing simple 2 manage because the cause(s) are long in ur past. Take care,Caren-Keep in touch!! JohnS. Most of ur notes are very inspirational!!

Hello,Caren!! The only answer(s) to fitness in general are: commitment, efforts to reach a particular goal and never have unrealistic expecttions 4 urself. I never would have believed that fitness could make in a short time. My self-esteem is quite improved.

Hi, Caren!! All of ur posts are very motivational-tnx 4 those. I agree with that one-the last 6 yrs have been very challenging in many ways-especially the last 18 months. It simply was a 'wake-up call'. I've learned frm this experience-occasionally I 'look bk' as a reality chk. Last yr at this time-I still wasn't walking. I never realized that exercise could change so much. I'm thinking this comment would fit to the one posted above. Take care-have a good week!!

Hi, Caren!! I like the 'daily horoscope' its plenty of motivation. On this end-things are better-I'm still losing wt-some of the meds are being changed/eliminated-quite a change frm last yr! I'm 'grounded' frm the 'land exercises for a while-Any ideas abt water exercises-I can't b on my feet. Take care-all the best!! JohnS.

Not really....ever tried making resolution once, it worked but sounds too organized so prefer to just let it flow ;)
John Szewczyk  at 7:20pm January 11
My resolution for 2010 is a simple one-Always try and give my best efforts-whatever it may be. Always try and learn at least one thing new everyday. Look FORWARD everyday and learn frm your past mistakes.

Caren B Go swim today! Swimming works your whole body, improving cardiovascular conditioning, muscle strength, endurance, posture, and flexibility all at the same time.

Definitely I agree, provided, if it is done in a right way else will result in exhaustion & burns, am I right Caren?
