1. RealAge.com reports that people who came to work sick at least six times within the previous year were 50 percent more likely to need extended sick leave later on - as much as two or more weeks off within the next 18 months. Just say no to presenteeism.

viewsHand Wash Cold: Care Instructions for an Ordinary Life
By Nikki Hardin, Publisher skirt!, Monday, February 6, 2012
It’s easy to think that meaning, fulfillment, and bliss are “out there,” somewhere outside of our daily routine. But in this playful yet profound reflection on awareness, the compelling voice of a contemporary woman reveals the happiness at the bottom of the laundry basket, the love in the kitchen sink, and the peace possible in one’s own backyard. Follow Karen Maezen Miller through youthful ambition and self-absorption, beyond a broken marriage, and into the steady calm of a so-called ordinary life.

viewsGuiltless Buffalo Wings
By 21stCenturyBody, Saturday, February 4, 2012Super Bowl Sunday and Buffalo Wings are a match made in heaven. Buffalo Wings and Our Waistelines aren’t! With Super Bowl Sunday coming up I know it’s a day to toss out the guilt and eat all those deliciously caloric foods. Well, not this year, at least not with this recipe for buffa

viewsSo I wasn't going to say anything......but here it goes....
By iscott, Saturday, February 4, 2012I was really not going to mention ANYTHING about the Susan G. Komen split from planned parenthood because I know planned parenthood is a touchy subject for people. I can't understand WHY it's a touchy subject because I am a firm believe in pro-choice and although I could not ever make that decision to abort my child, I know it is beyond me to prevent another woman from making her own choice. HOWEVER, within days or maybe even hours they reversed the split! So now I need to speak...Was this just some kind of publicity stunt to help raise awareness about Komen and planned parenthood?

viewsRisky Business, Footloose and Other Spontaneous Random Acts of Silliness
By workin4shoeswine, Friday, February 3, 2012It is not unusual for me to break out into spontaneous song and dance in the following places: my bedroom, my bathroom, the shower, the kitchen (with a fabulous glass of wine), my office, the car, running down Peachtree Street in the mornings. You've probably seen me if you drive through South Buckhead into Midtown. Yes, that's me! It's the city, I blend in with the other crazies. I grab the closest hairbrush or ladle microphone and do my best Steve Perry, Bono or Pat Benatar impression. I bust out my Dance Fever moves and moonwalk, robot or running man my way across the floor.

viewsHospice, Sunsets and Memories
By helenoflafolot, Thursday, February 2, 2012I was showing my mom the beautiful sunset outside her Rehab/Hospice room window last evening. She said: ‘Sunset and Morning Star … a good time to die’ … I searched the words on the net and found this Alfred, Lord Tennyson poem. I think this is what she was referencing.
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
