** I read this article that said the typical
symptoms of stress are; eating too much, impulse buying,
and driving too fast. Are they kidding? That is my idea of a perfect day. |

|
** For us women there are many careers in life to
choose from: professional this and that, or
motherhood...pick one! Both require 100% of our attention...don't even think about e-mailing me on this one...my opinion is firm! |
