Advice if you have any, plz & thanks!
I recently started a new workout routine, not a whole lot different than anything else I've ever done except have added jumping jacks and jump rope to it. It's an intense 20 min workout with a warm up at the beginning and a cool down at the end.
Since I have started it I have been getting pains in my sciatica that almost make my legs buckle. Any ideas what I should or shouldn't be doing? I LOVE to work out. Am gonna give myself a day off and hope to resume again tomorrow. Am thinking the workout may not be allowing enough time for stretching or something like that.
Thanks for any info!

Something fun to do...
"But I also heard the same dream from an old man of daring character, who had lived an active and enterprising life." (from the book MAN AND HIS SYMBOLS by Carl G. Jung which I am currently reading).

Depression...
...I sink into depression episdoes (not horribly) but still there are episodes when I feel down and sad and have no idea what brings them on. I speak to my brain and tell myself that I have a choice...I can either choose to be upbeat or allow myself to feel this downness...
Do you ever feel depressed? How do you handle it and do you know what brings it on to begin with? Thanks for any info.

...question for you...
......while in Facebook, I took one of those silly little tests. This one was called, What Country Are You From. It came out saying I was German (ok, I am a Latina); anyway, along with the answer was a photo of a young man somewhere around 20-25 years old...hard to tell anymore. Anyway! I thought he was pretty cute and I commented (on my own page mind you), "Hey, he's pretty cute. I wonder if he is real." One of my "friends," commented. something to the effect that I am a cougar. I am a bit miffed about it. As I was merely commenting on his appearance not salivating over him.
What would be a good reply so that I appear witty (ha!), not hurtful, but still come across as showing my displeasure at getting a label put on me for a simple comment that I made. (And what is a cougar anyway, I know it has somethig to do with older women and younger men.)
Thanks! (or am I being too sensitive...I guess I just hate labels!) --Pajarito

Some Rain...
Well, we had ONE nice day here where it got to a sizzling 83 degrees. That was short-lived...one day only and POOF it was gone. We are back to wearing our jackets/coats/raincoats.
It was just POURING rain before but the grass is starting to green up and the trees are starting to bud here.
How is it where you live? What do you see when you look out of your window? There is a pretty tree ready to bud right outside the window and when it does, it is beyond beautiful! Here's hoping your view of your world is as beautiful as it gets too!

41 Years
Today, my hubby and I celebrate 41 years of marriage. The time has passed by so quickly. I was fortunate and blessed to find a companion who is not only loving, but kind, warm, compassionate, patient and gives me support in all of my endeavors.
Today we are taking the day off and just doing odds and ends but we are spending the day together. And that's the best thing in the world.
Today, 41 years ago I married my soul mate. The love of my life. --PJ

ZUMBA!
I have been taking Zumba this month and hope to re-enroll in yet another class. It's wonderful fun. Dance/arobics mixed (kind of like the old Jazzercise but this is more Latin oriented). Anyone out there doing Zumba? If they have classes in your area, I'd sign up if I were you, it's TONS O FUN! --Pajarito
