This week I have been true to my promise and gone to all of my gym classes. During the past week, I also hurt my knee, because it finally decided it was tired of carrying the extra thirty-five pounds I have bestowed upon my frame. One day last week my knee made a...

Hello again from the UK…I hear those of you in Oklahoma are being pounded by a nasty winter storm. I am not sorry to miss that, although as I write, it is 5a.m. here, I am in bed, feet on a hot water bottle and my nose is as cold as a Labrador’s. I want to say a...
