A pedometer is a great way to see how far you are walking.  I think  the best way is to find someone, not in the same household that you can be exercise buddies.  They can hold you accountable for your workouts.

I am also a fan of vampire books, read the vampire diaries as a kid and now as an adult I zoomed through the twilight saga in a matter of weeks.  That is good for me as I am not a fast reader.

I am not a big fan of them or any other energy drinks, much prefer good ol fashion coffee.   On occassion though I will have one, but just do not like the taste.

Love them, never had seen them growing up so when I moved for college I was amazed about the afternoon thunderstorms.  It is crazy how mother nature works.

I am a huge fan of coffe, but not black.  I am sure it would be better for me if it were, but I like it with flavored cream.  I agree, it has to be hot.

I guess it depends on the veggie.  I love carrots raw but not a fan when they get cooked.  I love sauted mushrooms over raw.  Brocolli is much better steamed then it is fresh, so I guess I am all over the board.

I play cards, I love cards.  I play rummy, spades, canasta, pinnocle, crib, but I grew up in a small town where there was nothing to do.  My suggestion is hanging out with those friends more or just one of them and practicing.  I was playing crib with my grandfather at 10.  Hang in there it will get easier.

They are still in business, you might have to go to their website, but I think they are making a comeback.  Business did slow down for them a bit.

It really depends on the day.  I enjoy spearmint, but I am a real fan of cinnamon gum.  I enjoy the kick it has.

There were some hugs and kisses, but the majority of my hugs came from other relatives likes aunts, uncles, and grandparents.

No, but I have three.  They sit and collect dust.  It is not necessary for me to know the seconds, so the time I just look at my cell phone.

We are much closer then we were when I was younger.  She also had a drinking problem, but she has not had a drink in years and that makes me very happy.

My favorite cookie is choc chip or snickerdoodle.  They are both delicious.  But they have to be soft and moist, not a fan of hard or crunchy cookies.

I tend to hold in my emotions and wait for a time when I am alone and can watch a sad or happy movie and then I let it out when no one is around.

I think they do need to enforcement more. I know I need to put mine down more. I think that many things distract us while we drive, cellphones, other cars, thinking about the days stress.
