The FURminator works really well & does reduce shedding. My only complaint is that it is expensive for a comb but if you are willing to pay for it you will love it!

I have to admit I’ve never had a digital scale before because I’ve never trusted them, but since I was given the Eat Smart scale as a gift, I am extremely impressed!! It was extremely easy to start (just wait for it to all go back to 0.0…which I was patiently waiting for at first…but eventually it worked like a charm). And after that, I was able to stand on it and within milliseconds my weight would come up — and accurate at that (I tested with the gym’s manual scale). Excellent!! I never have to have anxiety about the scale being wrong again!! Only have to have anxiety about what it’s actually saying =)

What a great product!! If I cooked more often, I’d consider other scales!! Great product, EatSmart!

He is basically saying we all are god. We are all part of each other. We are all interconnected.. no one better, no one worse. It is not crazy, it is a philosophical idea. Not a big deal. People who say it’s blasphemy are ignorant about this subject, because it is not a new concept. It’s one that just reiterates our connective-ness as human beings. Isn’t that what jesus would want for us anyway..lol. Oh wait, and allah and buddha and all of those wonderful leaders of our souls.
The Companions of Columbus

Most of the time when I reach for a book that is earning high praise from critics and professional book reviewers I flinch a little inside and begin with not a small amount of trepidation. Why? Because most of the time the books fail to live up to the hype.

And so I put off reading The Help. I put it off for quite some time and honestly, I still would be putting it off if I hadn’t, on a whim, decided, what the hell, I might as well give it a shot.

The first page had me hooked and I’ve carried this book around with me all day long today, inhaling it like it was a huge box of chocolates and I couldn’t eat them fast enough.

I’m sure by now you know what this is a story about. 1960’s Mississippi dealing with segregation and the struggle to define a love/hate relationship between women and their “help” during that time period. The main three characters in this book nearly pop off the pages with their personalities and boy, the “villains”, those selfish, horrible women who have types that are still around today, they personify the worst of what any of us could be.

I cried and laughed and grieved my way through this novel. I was, in turn, horrified by the injustice of the acts being described and uplifted by the attitudes displayed. There are no saints here, there’s no need to be. Just pure, human emotions. Mistakes made, happy moments shared and throughout the entire book there is this gripping feeling of suspense that has you racing toward the end to learn the fates of the women you began to fall in love with at the beginning.

This is a story that will not disappoint you. If you are hesitant, like I was, take the leap. I’m glad I did.
