I do...it's the biggest reason I couldn't do simple math problems throughout school...I always got my equations confused and my numbers wrong. Long division makes me cry...and I need a calculator for other math equations...except for addition. That's the only one I don't so much need one for. But multiplication, division and subtraction bite me every time.

I can't even remember the formula for getting a percentage. Now matter how many times someone tells me.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
