[ - ] cant believe this friend's dh caught screwing nanny. he works from home and friend was getting suspicious b/c when dc were in school she could never get in touch with nanny or dh. Plus, nanny started giving her attitude. she came home one day and found the nanny giving dh a bj. she lost it and proceeded to kick the nanny, she said she lost it and doesn't know how she didn't kill them. I feel for her, her dc (twins) are 5 and she is devastated. 3 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

I used to work in the courts and find it interesting so I would get to be there without the headache of being actually too involved (like a lawyer). It is flexible, you can choose to work p/t, f/t. you can move and always find a court to work in. it is nice money. [ Reply | More

[ - ] Any runner moms on? I have been training for a 1/2 marathon for the past 1.5 months and the past two weeks my running schedule has fallen apart. I should get in a 3 mile run before the 5 mile long run tomorrow, but will the running back to back not be good? Should I just skip the 3 miles today and go for the long run tomorrow? Also, how do you get back on track? I got my period, 1 year old is waking up at 5 a.m. and not taking naps, 3 year old has no more preschool and is a mess. I am going to bed at 9 p.m. and still bone tired in the morning. TIA 2 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

IMHO, if you've been training, even if nothing for past two weeks, running 3 miles today should not disrupt running 5 tomorrow. when I am "in shape", running 3 miles is not a big deal; and if you've been training, it shouldn't be for you either. [ Reply | More

my thought is do an "easy" run today for time - go for 35-50 mins. then do your 5 mile tomorrow. just don't push it today so your legs are fresh tomorrow. enjoy! [ Reply | More

Love Obama, but no. Not in the first term and probably never because he still has to deal with congress. Sorry, I'm a cynic, but I think the biggest change he'll bring is in attitude and the rest will come over time. [ Reply | More
