   last tuesday i went out to lunch and stopped on the way home at the drug store.  i purchased L'Oreal's ReVitalift under eye cream.  Cost?  19.95 + tax.

  it's been a full week, and i can honestly report there has been ZERO change in my appearance.

  i'm not giving up hope...maybe by next tuesday?

  Its 5 pm and I am heading to the gym. I am determined to last longer on the ellyptical than my last visit. Yesterday i did one hour and half of abs and legs exercises watching FitTv....its cool......i dont even have to buy fitness videos...

  my dog has the bad habit to lay on my yoga mattress though while i am working out...maybe he thinks i am playing with him when i hold the Pilate position of the stretching cat......

  Private enough.......if you ask me....;-)

  Mmm  This is all very interesting.  Keep it coming. 
  
  This is what I've gathered thus far: 
  
  1:  It breaks ed's heart that his hometown football team is a dud.  I mean, they have good players and all, they just refuse to play together as a team.  That's really what's heartbreaking. 
  
  2.  In the UK, there's a drink called "Strongbow Cider".  I wonder what it tastes like?  Alcoholic?  or no? 
  
  3.  secret's concerned about the lines(circles? sags?) around her eyes.  It's a common concern for many ladies.  People are terrified of death and they try to escape every aspect of it, not show any signs decay and age.  Even the language we use to describe such events have negative connotations.  I personally don't see it as a big deal.  I don't think you should be overly concerned either, dear.  Unless you think the product doesn't work and file a class action lawsuit or something. 
  
  4.  missmimi's waiting for something huge!
  
  5.  polar needs to know what it is. 
  
  6.  unique has a regular enough schedule to have lunch every day(where as I eat when I'm hungry, resulting in many a brunches, dunches and luppers). 
  
  7.  ginger has a dog that knows comfort when it sees it.  I'm sure those yoga mats are padded and comfy.  She also does Pilates.  I'm not making fun of Pilates.  Pilates is cool.  My lady does Pilates.  I tried it once.  It damn near killed me. 
  
  more please.

  I dip, been doing it ever since I worked in the hay fields. I smoked up
  until that time, but could not do it in those hay fields.
   
  I started out with Copenhagen, but switched to Skoal because the other
  gave me heartburn and nothing gives me heartburn.
   
  I've been dipping for 36 years now, I'd like to quit, but damn. If I have
  something to do, I don't think I could do it without taking a dip first.
   
  It helps me think, I look at the task and put in a chew, think it over and
  usually come up with the right solution. I attribute this to the dip haha.
  Good post Grape

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 19, 2007....

  I've learned so much already...  And it looks like this post will be up here for a while, too. 
  
  The lesson continues:
  
  8.  Another loves the sun.  Me too, buddy.  So much so in fact I got a big 'ol tattoo of it on my back.  It's an eclipse, actually.  I designed it myself. 
  
  9.  wombat just got hot water and her internet at the same time.  Both essentials to modern living.  Welcome to modern civ!
  
  10.  mirrorimage loves presents.  Loooooves them.  :)  hint hint, don't forget. 
  
  11.  wordman sounds like he/she's living somebody's dream.  Who's dream, I couldn't say.  It's nice sounding, though. 
  
  12.  gentlepie needs to read the "Hyperion" series by Dan Simmons, Hugo and Nebula winner. 
  
  13.  sweet cookie needs to do it.  Both.  The vet thing and the hair thing.  Wouldn't it be cool to be a vet at a zoo with a stylish do?  I certainly can see you like that. 
  
  14.  TNP, my only request is that you stand behind a podium when you give your dissertation. 
  
  15.  I like green.  It smells like grass.  You know that smell of fresh cut grass?  Before they turn and get that funny(vomit inducingly funny) way...  Mixture of fresh cut grass and gasoline is one of my first nasal recognitions of summer. 
  
  16.  I wonder....  Is there a 12-step recovery program for gum addiction?  I guess you don't really ever hurt people chewing gum.  Although when I was in Jr. High, I got into a tussle with a kid and ended up putting gum in his long, lustrous metal hair while we were on the bus.  I also drew all over his denim jacket with rockband patches on them.  Oh man was he mad.  We ended up becoming friends, though.  We rode the bike to school together every day when the weather got nice out.  Thanks for bringing back that memory.  I hadn't thought about him in years. 
  
  17.  I'm guessing there are very few reasons to marry.  If not love, for money.  Other than that, maybe...  Convenience?  Fear of getting old alone, want of a progeny, maybe?  I don't know.  It's probably not worth it unless it's for love.  Or for money. 
  
  18.  evil_twin's mother has a picture of his butt as a little child which she uses to embarrass him or at least try to make things slightly uncomfortable for him?  To tease him?  I know it's all out of love and it's kind of heartwarming, too.  I'm sure the ladies love seeing pictures of his butt anyways.  They're thinking "that's what the kids are gonna look like".  Ha!  Not to scare you there or anything, I'm just saying is all. 
  
  19.  mobil's dip:  Kinda gives new meaning to "mull it over"  :)
  
  20.  Now I know of snyder's pretzels but this jalapeno cheddar sammich business is new to me.  You're going to have to elaborate there Z.  I want to know every delectable detail.  You've got my attention. 
  
  21.  Taping toes to play softball....  The game must have been extremely important for you.  That's dedication for ya. 
  
  22.  I used to be like you.  To be specific, I was an NPR junkie, myself.  As a recovering addict, I must tell you, it's impossible to tell the visually starved masses about the joys of radio.  It's like explaining to a group of people who spent their whole lives in a cave and looking at the shadows on the wall what a sunset over the ocean looks like. 
  
  23.  Mamie, I say do it.  I think it would be kind of cool, too.  Nuts to what your daughter thinks.  There's a part of her that thinks that's cool, too. 
  

• Zayda said on Jun 19, 2007....

  Grape: The Jalapeno Cheddar pretzel sandwiches are simply bite size pumpernickel pretzels with creamy jalapeno cheddar spread between them.

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 19, 2007....

  Z:  They sound like pretzel Combos.  Similar?  

• Zayda said on Jun 19, 2007....

  No, they are not really similar to Combos, no. Pretzel Combos are round pretzels with the hole in them filled with flavored cheese. These pretzels are mini round "waffle" pretzels" with the creamy jalapeno cheese spread between them--thus the sandwich (like an ice cream cookie sandwich with a cookie on the top and bottom and the ice cream in the middle.

  I took some pills that were designed to help me avoid sever cramps due to my MS, now I am told that it may be Parkinson's disease as well..so I took this drug without reading all the side warnings.

  11 PM.. I took big dog, my golden, out for a walk. good thing..I was smashed on my ass..had to let the dog lead me home. I thought I had been on a two day toot. I am still dizzy..but then..too..how can I tell??

• LadyGamer said on Jun 19, 2007....

  I cry like a slob. No single artistic tear rolling over a velvet alabaster cheek for me. Splotchy red discolored face with madly running snot.

  I cry at sad movies.

  I pretty much only watch sad movies at home.

  Someday, I'll be dead and no one will care what I looked like when I cry.

  Actually, I am pretty sure no one does now.

  Green is my favorite color. Purple comes next.

  Green and purple do NOT a decorator please.

• fearing said on Jun 19, 2007....

  @ LadyGamer - You made me laugh about how you cry!  That is me too!  I've been reading this thinking I couldn't think of anything to say but that gives me some ideas - thanks!
  
  I cry pretty much like LadyGamer.
  I cry often.
  I HATE for anyone to see me cry.  :-)
  I don't like to hear balloons pop.
  I won't eat garden peas, liver, cooked fruit or jello and if there is fruit 'suspended' in the jello, it only makes it yuckier.
  My favorite things are to hear my sons say they love me, my youngest son's smile, my oldest son's laugh, the way my mom smells, my dad's humor, the air after the rain, the sound of whip-poor-wills , porch swings, coffee, best friends, and laughing through tears.
  I've never done drugs.
  And my odd fact is - We make it a point to hold our feet up in the car while driving over the county line.  I don't know why - it's just funny.
  

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 19, 2007....

  Z:  Thanks for the link.  I'm gonna have to look for it the next time I go to a grocery store, which will most likely be when my lady returns from her summer vacation. 
  
  JD:  You must love your dog to take it out for a walk so inebriated.  I'm sure it appreciates you just as much, probably more.  That's a comforting thought, innit?
  
  LG:  I don't like to think of you crying, even in enjoyment of a movie.  I've never known what to do with a crying female.  I get all awkward and half cuddle and half jump out the nearest window.  Wasn't Barney green and purple?  Yeah, a purple dinosaur with green dots that want to be with children.  That's not wrong or anything. 
  
  fearing:  You made me laugh out loud about holding your feet up crossing county lines.  I'm going to start doing that over county lines and state lines from now on.

  polar:  I know.  I've learned a lot about people here today.  :)
  
  Susmary:  But I'm outside smoking....  Isn't it bad enough that I have to be treated like a second class citizen?  Can't drink in bars, can't eat at restaurants, have to drink out of a separate drinking fountain....  It's terrible. 
  
  diva:  I got a good chuckle out of your story.  Thanks for that.  I hope you feel better about it now that you admitted it here. 
  

• Susmaryosep said on Jun 20, 2007....

  Grapekoolaid, Nobody says that you are a second class citizen? You only perceive yourself to be one. that's what smoking gives you, a low self esteem! It;s just about living in society, and being considerate to others. If you are consciously doingthings that you know are harmful, why should you wish it on the others? it's just like a HIV infected person consciously going around to infect others, just because he got it and the others haven't. Is that fair? Nobody asked you to smoke, right? BTW, I was a chain smoker for 10 years before i gave it up in 1977.... 

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 20, 2007....

  Susmary:  Sorry.  Had to have a smoke before answering you.  The fact of the matter is, we are treated worse than second class citizens.  We are treated as villains.  It's getting to the point where the clean air police are starting to infringe on people's homes, apartments.  It took several clever lobbyists and a couple of cry-wolf scientists many years to villify smoking, and of course, people are just gullible enough to believe that a little bit of second hand smoke can KILL.  You effect public sentiment enough, you can change public policy. 
  
  Also, don't you find it odd that the FedGov is spearheading lawsuits against an industry?  Doesn't that sound blatantly anti-capitalist?  If it is so harmful, shouldn't it be banned like so many other controlled substances?  What about alcohol?  It's harmful effects are much more easily recognizable, not only in terms of health, but in lifestyle and the potential harm caused by alcoholism.  Yet, It seems perfectly okay for people to live for the weekend, go out and get completely obliterated. 
  
  There are many things about our "prohibition" laws that just plain don't make sense to me, but I won't go into that.  I just know that this lawsuit from the FedGov is just another way to raise the cost of living up, tax tobacco at the federal, state, and county level, and squeeze out the middle and lower middle class just a little more. 
  
  And to compare me getting a chuckle out of people making faces and waving their hands in front of their pretentious faces going into a bookstore to a person knowingly infecting others with HIV?  That's a bit extreme, don't you think? 
  
  I think it's great that you quit smoking.  Maybe one day I'll decide it's not for me.  I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.  Until then, of course, I will smoke whenever and where ever I want, provided that it's not against the law.  The places where I can smoke are rapidly dwindling.  Even outdoors.  It's already getting difficult.

  GrapeKA,
  I give it to you your right to smoke, and I love my beer. and I think alcohol just like smoking injures your health, and we made the decision. But alcohol has no second hand effect, unless you include drunk driving.... Crux is, we have our rights, but we need laws to make sure those who don't like what we do can also have some 'space' let's agree to disagree ok,? You seem too nice a person to me to continue arguing. Just take care will you? :-)

  Fearing, my mom always used to tell us to pick our feet up off the floor and put our hands on the ceiling of the car, whenever we went under a bridge! It was some old superstition from her childhood. The first time she did that with one of my friends in the car, he freaked out and thought we were assuming some sort of crash position! It was hilarious.

  Well I've quit smoking and drinking....am now a social drinker & smoker 'cause it usually went hand in hand for me for over 20yrs. 
  Deep dark secrets....I guess I have one of those but I was a child at the time.  I went babysitting for the neighbors up the street and their little daughter...even at that time....was a nymphomaniac in the making I guess...she'd jump on my lap and want me to touch her and after some coaxing...I did...was 10 at the time and she watched her parents ' doing it ' and wanted the same.
  Too shy to go all the way but touch each other...in a clumsy childlike way....we did.
  
  There...my deep dark secret is out and that's why I don't believe in child babysitters.

  Grape darlin'~ Thank you for making my point. Barney is purple and green.

  Barney is the avatar of teh debbil.

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 20, 2007....

  Wow Thanks everyone for being so candid. 
  
  So...In the spirit of continuing our delicate dance, I continue. 
  
  redrocks:  Chewing your fingernails...  That's a bad habit.  My sister used to do that all the time.  My mom put nail polish on her hand so she'd stop, but she didn't.  I don't think she chews her nails anymore, but I don't know how she dropped that habit.  I'll look into that and get back to you. 
  
  itchtowrite:  That sounds yummy!  Like a creamsicle in a glass!
  
  moonriver:  Just a little homage to the Allegory of the cave, which was talked about in Plato's "Republic"  :)  Lights and shadow.  I dig it. 
  
  bluesaphire:  Your man's a lucky guy. 
  
  MMI:  My second and third toes are longer than my big toe, too!  I have really long toes that I can grab and pinch and pick up stuff with.  My lady calls them "monkey toes" and she screams and screeches and giggles and freaks out when I try to pinch her with them. 
  
  destinydiva:  The cards are laid out for you.  All you have to do is look at them. 
  
  qp:  Well, what are you savin' it for?  Marriage?  Go and get some! 
  
  susmaryosep:  Thanks.  You seem a nice person, too.  I see arguments as a healthy way to exchange ideas between people, provided they stay within the parameters of good behavior.  It's when people start to get personal things get ugly.  Enjoy your drink, and I'll light one up for you outside in the rain.  :)
  
  evil_twin:  all this talk of car traditions made me think of another one.  We used to have to hold our breath going through tunnels.  I remember almost passing out driving through the Apalachian Mountains one time. 
  
  CarmellaBella:  Y'all come back now, ya hear? 
  
  quietone:  If you hate being sensitive, perhaps you should try being a bit callous.  It could work out for you. 
  
  beyond:  Don't let Alienated hear you talk like that.  He'll put you down for a probing at 8pm. 
  
  polar:  beyond is contacting us from beyond the veil.  An inter-dimensional one, not an inter-planetary one, I think.

  RollingC:  You blew me away with that confession of yours.  You usually hear of babysitters leaving with the husband, or beating up the kids, but not this.  Sigh.  My heart goes out to all you parents out there that have to deal with issues like this.  Almost makes me glad to be a foolish man-child with no major obligations. 
  
  LG:  Yuppers.  That's what I thought. 
  

• uniquely-ironic said on Jun 20, 2007....

  lfbno7 - you watch martial arts on TV?  why not go learn some?  I have studied one for 7 years, in which time I've broken about 5 bones.  Yes, I'm crazy to still do it, but I refuse to grow old gracefully.

• tazcat said on Jun 20, 2007....

  Ok... so far, I am at the tail end and probably no one will read this since this very cool post has also become so long.  Very interesting, though. 

  Ok... my stuff is:  I like cats, coffee, reading new fiction, antiquing, bright colors in homes (not wimpy decorating), driving a hybrid, being gentle to the environment, growing out my hair, hanging out with my family, travel, relaxing mornings.

  I don't like: liver, judgemental people, hurrying, deadlines. 

  -Tazcat

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 20, 2007....

  aww, I forgot a few people.  Sorry.  Didn't mean to skip you over.  There were so many.  Don't feel left out I love you guys. 
  
  minnie:  I'd think bungees are scarier than some old needle.  A needle ain't gonna kill ya.  A drop from 300ft just might. 
  
  lfbno7:  You made up a baseball game?  You'll have to elaborate. 
  
  Froggie:  I'm sure your hubby don't mind.  ;)
  
  unique:  What style?  I took various martial arts for 15 years. 
  
  tazcat:  It seems that you and I have similar likes and dislikes, though I don't really care that much about the environment.  I mean, I care a little bit.  I recycle and stuff, but I'm not an eco-warrior or anything.  Plus, I've been known to litter occasionally. 
  

• genalonewolf said on Jun 20, 2007....

  Ok here goes, I love to go down on my pickle (gf) I do it so much that she asked me to cut back because she can't handle all the attention down there! Go figure!

• CreativeWoman said on Jun 20, 2007....

  If I eat peas, I will vomit...no ands, ifs or buts.  I got sick on them as a youngster and never got over it. 
  
  I hate fake laughing.

  Grape - DanZan Ryu Jujitsu.  I am still working for the black belt.

• sasimoh said on Jun 20, 2007....

  Well I'm sort of trying to start a religion online. Very few people in real life know that about me :)

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 20, 2007....

  genalonewolf:  There are many a ladies in SoulCast that could use your help, I'm sure, or at least had a problem like your gf's.  I guess too much of anything can be a bad thing.  Hope you find a nice balance. 
  
  CW:  you mean, kinda like Linda Blair in the Exorcist?  That'd be scary.  No peas...ever?  Not even with pearl onions?  or mixed with other vegetables?  Or in a caserole?  I don't know.  I'm no culinary expert.  What else do you put peas in?  No peas for little CW?  ever? 
  
  unique:  I admire your dedication.  I was always too distracted to focus on just one discipline. 
  

• mommyof2 said on Jun 20, 2007....

  I once washed a huge bag of my other halfs pot, left it in his pocket, he thought he lost it...ha ha.

• uniquely-ironic said on Jun 20, 2007....

  I'm not so sure it's dedication rather than just being stubborn.  That, and I keep breaking myself, so I lose a lot of time to injury.

• boyzmom said on Jun 20, 2007....

  I hate when people smoke in front of the door, I have asthma and it can make me very sick. I am currently slightly depressed and cannot figure out if it is because I still care about my ex or if it is because I am tired of trying to care about the jackass. My kids are the most important thing in the world to me! And I am an orphan and am thinking that soon there will be very few people in this world left for me to care about.

• RollingC said on Jun 20, 2007....

  Any babysitter that I would hire (have no need to but if I did) would have to be a responsible adult with references.
  Thanks for the opportunity to shed this.

  ...okay - it seems that all the main ladies of SC ['cept for maybe 3] are featured in that controversial post of mine under pseudonyms - it's up to us to
  figure out who's who...

• gentlepie said on Jun 20, 2007....

  12.  gentlepie needs to read the "Hyperion" series by Dan Simmons, Hugo and Nebula winner.

  @grapekoolaid: thanks! may i know what the series is all about?... to get me interested. hehehe. 

• Susmaryosep said on Jun 20, 2007....

  Queen a Virgin? well blessmy soul ,,,..... :-)
  
  
  

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 20, 2007....

  sasimoh:  Tell me more about your faith. 
  
  mommyof2:  It's just a bag.  It's no big deal, I'd say. 
  
  unique:  There's determination in there.  To try again after injuring yourself, what else do you call that?  I think determination requires quite a bit of stubbornness. 
  
  boyzmom:  I'm sorry about the smoking thing.  I don't really know for which part...  for doing it, or getting a kick out of it...  probably both.  I'm sorry to hear about your situation.  It's a scary thing to think of, to be alone sometimes.  There are people around you who love and care for you.  You are not alone.  None of us are. 
  
  RC:  I'd say that's a good plan.  A nannycam don't hurt, neither.  Any time you feel like dropping by, you're always welcome.  :)
  
  biglove:  is that a good dream?  How does the dream end?  Do you put any significance to it? 
  
  TNP:  Up to us, eh?  There you go giving yourselves away again.  I'm on to you TNP.  Wait on the blog.  It's coming. 
  
  gentlepie:  The first one is a story of a pilgrimage.  It's actually an extrapolation of chaucer's canterbury tales.  It's basically a group of people sitting together on their way to a pilgrimage all talking about how they got there.  That's all I'll tell you.  The first one is "Hyperion".  The 2nd is "The Fall of Hyperion", 3rd, "Endymion", and 4th, "The Rise of Endymion".  I hope you read it and enjoy.

  destinydiva...nice to met you too and thanks  ;))

  grape...how do you think the dream ends....WET!!!....lol ;-)) I am however, trying to analyze the dream, there has to be some meaning to it since I keep having it...or maybe I'm just a freak!!

• gotanitchtowrite said on Jun 20, 2007....

  recurring dreams are a phenomenon that could be caused by stress, or your trying to solve a conflict when in awake state.
  
  Here's a link that may help you decipher/analyze your dream.

  Susmary: Hehe...wait...how do you know i'm beautiful. You don't know what I look like. :P

• LadyGamer said on Jun 21, 2007....

  Z~ Hello! You have sassy shoes! That makes you beautiful by association.

• Zayda said on Jun 21, 2007....

  LG: Oh, true, I do have sassy shoes. In fact, I have a few pair of sassy shoes. ;)

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 21, 2007....

  Z:  Oh I don't know.  Those Warhol pictures reveal more than you think.  ;)
  
  I don't know much about shoes.  I know that my lady puts different shoes on each foot and goes, "this one?  or this one?"  before we go out sometimes.  I say, "They both look nice", and she says, "you're not even trying".  Then I'll say, "Yes, dear.  Ready to go now?"
  

• Susmaryosep said on Jun 22, 2007....

  Zayda,
  It has been widely reported here that you are. And who am I to doubt the tastes of me fellow SCs..... :-)  Sassy shoes? I like that, especially if they are 'backed up' by sexy toes....! hahahah
  
  

• Zayda said on Jun 22, 2007....

  Grape: They do?
  
  
  Susmaryosep: Well, now, I don't know if my toes are sexy. But my sassy shoes are. They are in my blog.

• GrapeKoolaid said on Jun 22, 2007....

  Z:  Indeed they do, MDL.  Through they be granulated and pixelated, I recognize beauty when I see it.

• inspiration2jms said on Jun 24, 2007....

  I wanted to respond to so many comments here and don't have the time to go back and associate the commenter with the comment, so I will just list them as I remember them.
  
  Dipping your fingers in bleach 2-3 times a day will cure chewing on them.  It is really nasty.
  
  Rejuvenating creams are so expensive.  Not long ago my son had mentioned to his step father that I really looked old.  I am also getting old people blackheads.  Or was.  Last week he came over unexpectedly and before he left he said, "Mom, I know you are still sick but you look eight years younger.
  
  Puffy or baggy eyes - Use preparation H
  
  Starting to get wrinkles (especially for us smokers) Purchase a small jar of Suave Beauty Cream for $1.50 at the General Dollar store and a large bottle of asprin.  Grind 1/4 of the aspirin in a blender until it is powder.  Wait about three minutes for the dust to settle and mix it into the Beauty Cream.  Apply once daily and let sit until it is almost but not quite dry.  Wash with warm water. 
  
  Just before bed, apply a small amount of grape seed oil to cheeks, lip area and brow.  (can be found in health food store, Extra Virgin Olive Oil also works well and is a great personal lubricant that has almost no taste)
  
  Soloangel, I have you in my prayers.
  
  My secret thing about me:  I am pretty intelligent and considered the go to person in my community and in some communities online.  I have one really bitg fear.
  
   I am afraid that someone will discover that I am not as smart as I think I am.

• Perdy said on Jul 10, 2007....

  I know that I'm a bit late to respond to this, but I just got here....

  I've only kissed 2 people in my life.

  I have a bit of a southern accent which I try desperately to hide. (I'm not even from the south!)

  I don't like chocolate unless its "that time of month"...And even then its questionable.

  I was home alone and crying when I had my first and so far ONLY drunken experience, I regret it still to this day (not that it was that long ago).....I puked 7 times and I'm convinced that has got to be a record somewhere!

• truluv_whocares said on Jul 17, 2007....

  This was an experience....reading everyone's little quirks. I love people. Thanks, Grape, an excellent idea, so good I'm off to write my own post. Full exposure...why not? What have we got to lose?

• alicat19 said on Jul 19, 2007....

  There's not much really to tell about me.

  I'm kind of a nerd.  I'm lonely and depressed.  I desperately want attention but don't know how to really go about getting it.  I have very little self-confidence so I lash out a people who are more confident than I am just to get any kind of attention.

  I secretly am attracted to one of my closest friends who doesn't notice me.  People usually don't notice girls like me. I'm a plus size. And I don't carry the weight well, so I try to attract attention by being mean and spiteful.  Or, I use people to get the attention I need.  And I lie about myself alot too.

   

  =(^-^)=

• alicat19 said on Jul 19, 2007....

  Oh and I make notoriously bad decisions.  I'm a horrible judge of character.  And when a male does offer me the least bit of attention, I do things I shouldn't do because I'm so desperately in need of someone to make me feel good about myself.

   

  =(^-^)=

  Hi Grape, Now I realise this is an old post but I wanted to put my 2 cents in too :)

  I'm a mom of 3 boys, 43, married. I was born in Morocco, grew up in Montreal, lived in Israel for 12 years and now I'm back in Canada but in Toronto this time. As for the rest you can read a bit about who I am through my posts.
