My issue is malls and stores with big parking lots that have provided no way for walkers to get to the front door safely so the walkers have created a mud path through the grass or landscaping with their thousands of trips and after a while the retailer fixes the landscaping instead of creating a real path!Cindyhttp://fatchicksfitness.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-17511072505687060422015-05-14T16:26:18.753-04:002015-05-14T16:26:18.753-04:00Yes it's healthy to kvetch sometimes.

You take your life in your hands trying to get across the highway, or you'd best cross down into the creek to go under the highway and it's a pill.<br /><br />The reason they are making "fashion" that way is they can charge as much for it and use less fabric so they look like they are keeping prices the same but they aren't because they are giving you less fabric for the same amount of money. That's also why t-shirts so often don't have more than a hint of a tiny sleeve any more, either.<br /><br />Thank you, i needed that, too.messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-2476781159119215032015-05-14T08:10:36.535-04:002015-05-14T08:10:36.535-04:00Where can i get this oneWhere can i get this onePilates Yoga Centre parishttp://www.rituelstudio.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-82085922894222884502015-05-13T09:22:45.635-04:002015-05-13T09:22:45.635-04:00...but it was MEANT to be ugly!

Now I pick randomly at the grocery store.<br /><br />And weirdly enough, when I go to my mom's to visit, she picks the cheapest grocery store generic decaf she can find, and somehow it tastes great! Yet when i bring anything home that is decaf, no matter how fancy, and even use the same type of coffeemaker, is tastes kinda crappy.

I just got a new smart phone, and boy, is it ever smart. It has a seemingly endless way of gobbling up my data allocation on stuff that I really, really don't want to get. Am I the only one? I have never, really never, turned on any video on my phone unless I am in a wifi place, and my biggest usage is...yup, video. The phone has gotten more sensitive, it seems, and if I am simply scrolling through a news article, my finger might touch a video ad, and I may realize that the tinny voice I am hearing is coming from my phone - although I have now successfully scrolled far enough down that I am not watching the video. Grrr.<br /><br />On a more fitness oriented note, sort of a variation on your Texas walker-free theme, I am frustrated that there are so few practical public places for me to carry on my struggle to acquire chin-ups now that most playgrounds require you to have an actual child with you to go in. I am small, yes, and occasionally childish (I wish I could say child-like), but the grey hair is a dead give-away. I have a feeling my grandchildren would not appreciated being pressed into service so Grammy could do even more exercise.<br /><br />Yesterday I did a big ride with my two training buddies, and when they got tired before I did - a rare occasion, that - and I tried sympathy, they said, "I've got a right to whine, haven't I?"

(Also, your picture! which my comment was appreciating. Although I love the cat.)<br />I am not finding decaf at all difficult to come by, but then I don't do Starbucks. I nearly always make coffee at home, but Louisville's own coffee chain, Heine Bros., shows no sign of running out of decaf. <br />I have no comment on walkability, since it is my goal to get back out beyond sidewalks (despite the fact that walking is my favorite exercise) to where "town" is ten miles away.<br />Exercise clothes? This is such a strange concept for a walker. Pocket Rant: if so many people weren't mindless slaves of the consumer culture, we could go on strike (as I did more than forty years ago) and refuse to buy anything pocketless, and clothes without pockets would disappear! <br />That's my gripiness for the day.<br /><br />Mary Anne in Kentucky<br />solarityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03606487180967915130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-34777073207700293952015-05-11T16:35:07.218-04:002015-05-11T16:35:07.218-04:00I am with you on the decaf thing!

I have just rolled over and done the Americano thing, but I have to say it does bug me. And when they try to sell me a pound of their fancy new beans, I tell them I'd love to try it - do you have it in decaf?? Hah! No. It also bugs me when I want to have the occasional soda when we go out. At home I drink Coke Zero Decaf, which I have never found in any restaurant. And I get that, but then offer one of the caffeine-free sodas in diet, like Sprite or 7Up, but that doesn't happen either. I guess it's just not as glamorous as gluten-free :-( Emmaclairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06075275421271190384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-36191968159844064652015-05-11T14:40:15.046-04:002015-05-11T14:40:15.046-04:00I was trying to think of what is irritating me tod...I was trying to think of what is irritating me today, and couldn't think of anything (how great is that?)!<br /><br /> LynMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-22187284381985093872015-05-11T13:04:36.996-04:002015-05-11T13:04:36.996-04:00I need shorts that go down to my knees because my ...I need shorts that go down to my knees because my upper legs have a LOT of sagging skin and embarrass the hell out of me.

I finally gave up my beloved XP last year and only because a power surge fried it. So here I am, on a Windows 8, at least 5 years younger than my XP and it is slower. What gives? And furthermore...why have we had the big backslide in online advertising. I thought we had long since learned our lesson about pop-ups and animations that hog processing...not only a usability nightmare, but especially noticeable since newer computer is slower than my old one. <br /><br />That is all.
