- Anyone use the goal-setting feature here on Daily Strength? It's a great tool, you can make any type of goal you want, it can be numerical, like losing weight, a certain number of lbs, or you can make it a percentage, like "Get My Shit Together"...
- I was watching the movie "The Kids Are All Right" tonight, and was kinda struck by how freely the F'you's were flying throughout the whole movie, between parents, between teenage friends, from kids to parents... It was like dinner conversation, oh...
- I'm just starting on Flylady, it looks like a lot of fun, and the Flylady, Marla, she is just precious, precious, precious! Here's what I've gathered so far, what it's about: FLY stands for finally loving yourself. It's about getting dressed...
- The kids insist on putting the old home videos on today... I took a shower, did some laundry, vaccumed my bedroom, shaved my dog's a$$... everything I could think of to avoid watching or even HEARING those videos... But now that I've seen a few......
