There are two categories of women; those who see the need of getting physically fit and actually take up the challenge and hit the gym and those who see the need of being physically fit but have not yet begun. Most often, the reasons that you will give for not having started getting physically fit will be things such as you have no time because of work.
Another excuse may be that you have not yet identified the most suitable place for you or you may just be lazy; let’s hit the nail on…

*feel free to check out the original post, http://www.shadesoflovely.com/the-thing-that-changed-my-mind-about-santa/*
I grew up not believing in Santa Claus. My parents would tell you that we celebrated the historic "Saint Nicholas" so we did technically partake— but we never believed he was real. Nor did we receive gifts from Santa, leave out cookies, or emphasize Santa as a major part of…

I’m probably in the minority with my opinion about today’s topic. The older I get, the more I feel that trying to get kids to believe in Santa Claus is a waste of time.

Some of you may remember this post from a few years ago, and some of you may be reading it for the first time. Whatever the case, it was my own nucking futty spin on the classic tale of "The Night Before Christmas". If your holidays are anything like mine, you'll appreciate the recounting of a Christmas Eve that's not exactly what you might call picture-perfect.…

The story begins in 1821 with our narrator talking about the origins of the Atchinson,…

Every creature was stirring, being exceptionally bad.

And Goatdog was eating each one that he tore.
