Laughing Eating Singing Dancing

Hope all goes well and you recover quickly.

is this an SOS?

this made me laugh! and then today....I see this!! reminds me of the tracy/travis thing which I never fully understood...hahaha

finished up my week strong....I did purposely skip leg day yesterday....to be honest they were sore and my knee was bothering me and I have a race this weekend and didn't want to be in pain for that so I skipped. I rarely skip so it's ok :) Today was cardio kickboxing day...TGIF!

that's why I avoid doctors, at least traditional ones anyway

FYI The Food and Drug Administration is strengthening warnings on painkillers like ibuprofen to say that they cause an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. The over-the-counter forms include Advil, Motrin IB and Aleve. The distinction was subtle: The labels already say such drugs “may cause” increased risk of heart attack and stroke. But the agency said that new data from a recent analysis provided stronger evidence of the increased risk of heart failure from such drugs, called nonaspirin nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (Nsaids), which are taken by millions of Americans. In the coming months, the agency said it would ask manufacturers to change the labels to say that the drugs “cause an increased risk” of serious heart failure. It also will ask them to add that the risk may occur early in treatment and may increase the longer the patient uses the medicine. The changes will apply to over-the-counter and prescription forms of the medicine, an F.D.A. spokesman said. The agency said people with heart problems should consult a doctor before taking the medication. The F.D.A. said it reviewed a large number of studies that supported the conclusion that the medicines caused increased risk. The studies estimated that the relative risk increased by 10 percent to 50 percent, depending on the drugs and the doses considered. The agency first warned of the risk of heart attack and stroke in the prescription medicines in 2005. People who have heart disease, particularly those who recently had a heart attack or stroke, are most at risk, the agency said. But it added that even those who had never had heart disease were at risk. “Everyone may be at risk, even people without an underlying risk for cardiovascular disease,” Dr. Judy Racoosin, the deputy director of the F.D.A.’s Division of Anesthesia, Analgesia and Addiction Products, said in a written explanation of the change. Last year, the F.D.A. convened a panel of experts to review the studies and evidence that informed its decision on Thursday. The over-the-counter form of the drugs is used to treat pain or fever. The prescription forms tend to be stronger and are used to treat arthritis and other painful conditions, the agency said. In a statement, the Consumer Healthcare Products Association, a trade association for makers of over-the-counter medicines, said such drugs “have a long history of safety and efficacy when used as directed,” and that the current label already addresses heart risks “and directs consumers to take the smallest effective dose.” It said it would work with the F.D.A. to make the changes it is requesting “to ensure continued safe consumer use.” http://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/10/us/fda-is-set-to-toughen-nonaspirin-warnings.html?_r=1

we used to go there every year....when my kids were little...for at least 10 years....but then we just stopped going when my dad died...haven't been back since 2003....so we are pretty excited.,,,it does stink cause I can spend hours in the water catching waves...but i can honestly say I am afraid this time. Too many sharks...way too many One year we took a plane ride and flew over Ocacroake island and you can see like 15 HUGE sharks swimming about 100 feet away from the shore where there were swimmers..the pilot told us they are always there but never bother anyone. It's different now....ugghhhh

that's exactly where i'm going in 3 weeks....outer banks....Avon to be exact...where there was not 1, but 2 attacks AND...... this guy caught a shark there that was over 6 ft long but had to toss it back in because it was below legal size :huh: :wacko: :blink:

funny how shark week is simultaneous with all these shark attacks...I smell a conspiracy!! the sharks are in on it..I just know it

open mindedness great sense of humor confidence...but not too much...not arrogant....bleah!! sexy smile positive attitude
