I love the ones from Lululemon - they never slip down or slip.

I've started and stopped several. Right now I'm on the Rose Code and I'm not in love with it either. It's worth persevering, I thought the start was a little slow, but then I LOVED it. I made myself stick with it and agree with you, I'm liking it much more.

What would happen if you returned the loaner car in the condition your car was returned to you??? THIS!!! And I would bring this up to them! They certainly wouldn't accept you returning their loaner in such a damaged condition - they expect it to be in the same condition as when you left with it, just as your car should be when you return to collect it. If they don't want to resolve things to your satisfaction, don't hesitate to let them know you will be expressing your negative experience on their survey.

ETERNAL ('21) BY LISA SCOTTOLINE : 2 STARS I've given up on this one at the halfway point. I don't care about any of the characters, the way the story is told isn't interesting, and I have no desire to see how it ends. I'm having a really hard time finding a book that I like right now... I've started and stopped several. Right now I'm on the Rose Code and I'm not in love with it either.

You're giving yourself grief over something I wouldn't give a second thought. Let it go and enjoy knowing you can now live without his presence looming over you.

I like ours, but our dog does not and I don't use it as often as I had planned because of that. Exactly this. My dog goes batshit crazy when we run the Roomba so I have to listen to her whine for an hour+. Super annoying. Especially since I bought it to keep up with her shedding hair.

It's going to affect e v e r y t h i n g. Think of how hard it is to get some products now because of Covid, and it's about to get worse. What a nightmare.

My mother, who is on SS, still has not received hers. (She received the previous two via direct deposit.) I just read that members of the House have given the IRS until Friday to answer as to why they have not set a date for recipients of Federal benefits to receive their stimulus payment.

I finished Little Secrets by Jennifer Hillier. It was okay. I didn't really like any of the characters and I struggled to finish it. 3 stars.

Damn... I can't believe she let her have access for FOUR years! I also can't believe the asst. principal had access to students beyond her own school.

I have a question too! Do people who are on Social Security and don't file taxes get a stimulus? My mother has gotten all the other ones, but so far hasn't received this one. Mine, my daughter, and older brother's hit our accounts this morning, but nothing for my mom. I think if the IRS doesn’t have her direct deposit info, then she will get a check. Since she doesn’t file a tax return that may be the issue. They do, her monthly check is direct deposited and the other two stimulus checks were as well. I think I found my answer though - I saw an article that said on Friday the IRS said a date had not been announced yet for SS and other federal benefit recipients to receive their checks. You know, you'd think those people would be first to get them...

Someone said BBW posted on Twitter that the employees had been fired but I can’t find that. I hope they weren’t. I'd bet my life they were. Most likely the two females and probably the male, and maybe even the third female who seemed like she was trying to break it up. Their home office is going to say they should never have touched the customers, and I won't be surprised if Stripes and Tube Top end up suing LL Brands.

She didn’t say she wanted to commit suicide. She said she was having dark thoughts and felt she didn’t want to be alive anymore and it scared her. Your comment shows extreme ignorance as to what it’s like to be in such a dark place. She certainly did say that. Oprah specifically asked her that. I didn’t mean she wasn’t in a dark place . Gad Yep - I cosign this.

Ummmm OMG I’m not even sure I’ll make it through this. This is really what she thinks/believes? What she is saying about how they said they didn’t want Archie to be a prince? Or how worried how dark he Mark be? I’m flabbergasted. I don’t believe it. Or at least I truly hope she is lying if she basically is saying the BRF is racist. I really thought she had a good relationship with the Queen! If they would've had those worries, wouldn't that have been a conversation before they were married - not when she was with child later?
The more of this I watch, the less I believe of what she's saying.

Amazon has started using local stores to fulfill some of their orders. I'm guessing it's to alleviate some of the shipping problems.

I read After I Do by Taylor Jenkins Reid. It's about a married couple who find themselves at odds with each other and decide to separate for a year, with absolutely no contact between them. The story kept me interested and I enjoyed it. 4 stars
Right now I'm struggling through The Midnight Library. I'm about halfway through and it's just... boring. Am I the only one who doesn't love this book?

Cycling - particularly men's cycling but I also keep up with Kate Courtney who is a women's mountain biker. College football, specifically the SEC; a little NFL; and I always watch the Olympics.

I didn't realize she has, or possibly has, mental health issues. Doesn't she have children? Does she have custody of them? No, Kevin does.

I think there are things the public does not know. She has petitioned the court many times to have her father removed as conservator - even to have someone else replace him - and for some reason they keep him. There has to be a reason for that.

Oh, no, I'm totally going all in on the liberal cmas card! Best idea ever!! Why stop at Christmas cards? There are sooo many holidays where you could send cards.
I validate your being bothered, one other reason for not replying: he then knows you read dh’s texts (dh and have the same phone relationship, so I totally get that). Shame she just missed President's Day.

Odd question - what accessories do you use for these? I'm assuming a yoga mat but what about weights or other items? I don't need a bike because I have "real" bikes but I had no idea you could do the other classes through their app - these are exactly what I need! For yoga, it's a yoga mat. Usually a yoga block is suggested. Sometimes a blanket or pillow if you do recovery yoga. Meditation, it's come as you are. For strength, there are a ton of options. Some bodyweight, some light weights and others are more bootcamp like with heavier weights. They have a few strength sessions that use a resistance band. There are also bootcamps, cardio and walks/runs. I downloaded it for the bike classes and stayed for the variety of classes offered. Great - thank you! This is exactly what I needed to know. I'm so excited - I've been needing to do these type classes but when I looked at the class schedule at a gym close to me, nothing fit my schedule. I think this will be perfect.

I have an Echelon Connect Sport from Walmart. I've used it about 60 times and it's solid (and quiet). It's a very popular alternative to the Peloton and you can still use the Peloton app. You do not need to subscribe to Echelon to use this bike. In the app, use the freestyle mode to get your metrics (cadence, resistance, total output). Check out Gabriella Guevara or Kaleigh Cohen on Youtube and you'll get an idea of what spin classes involve. Kaleigh in particular has beginner classes that are 20 minutes long. You could honestly just use spin instructors on Youtube for free and get a great workout. Spin class can be exhausting especially in the beginning. I thought I was going to die after a few minutes LOL. Well, I didn't Now I can manage a 45 minute class with sweat, bigger lung capacity and strong muscles 💪 I love it. I chose the same bike and have been very happy with it. I'm coming up on 75 rides. I use the Peloton app for $12.99 per month which is well worth it to me. I also do their strength, yoga and meditation sessions. I use the app Qdomyoszwift to be able to match my resistance and cadence for Peloton. But I haven't dropped one pound for all my exercise because I am a huge stress eater. With covid, my DS' marriage falling apart and political upheaval, I stress eat a lot. I need a stress break. That said, the exercise I get from my bike and other classes is probably what's keeping me somewhat sane. Odd question - what accessories do you use for these? I'm assuming a yoga mat but what about weights or other items? I don't need a bike because I have "real" bikes but I had no idea you could do the other classes through their app - these are exactly what I need!
