magic - I like his kind of humor!

KB - I love cute baby animals! Any pics?

I saw this and now understand why I prefer reds.

Wow! They're adorable! I've never seen this breed before. Thanks for sharing!

Probably already read the book. I feel bad I don't have that book. I've never read to my pup. Bad pup management.

My pup is a princess. When I exercise, I move her doggie bed out of the way by standing it up on its edge. Last night my daughter set it back down, but I noticed my pup was sitting next to it staring at my daughter. The doggie bed was upside down. After my daughter flipped it over, the princess observed it was good and climbed on top.

Here's a simple nerve flossing for the arms/chest/shoulder. Hold arms out with one hand palm down and other hand palm up. Face the hand that's palm down. Turn head towards the other hand while rotating your palms. Repeat for 30 secs/1 min. The video has more details and other techniques, but he can be chatty.

I can't wait! Whole family plans on going when it opens! My movie snack is peanut M&Ms, because um, protein.

Love this poster. That's Robin Wright (Claire Underwood/Princess Buttercup)on the left.

I think the sublingual is absorbed better. Can't remember where I read it though.

I bought our Wonder Woman tickets last night. We can pick out our seats ahead of time, so we can be sure we sit together. It's gotten really good reviews. Robin Wright said she had to train with about 150 women to become Amazon warriors. Cool!

Good story.

Surprise for a Mother Who Helped Her Paralyzed Son in Every Class

Judy O'Connor had no idea a surprise awaited her when she pushed her son, who uses a wheelchair, onto a stage at the commencement at Chapman University on Saturday.

As she stepped back to let her son, Marty, have his moment — he was receiving his M.B.A. — a dean kept her on stage. It was then announced that she had been awarded an honorary M.B.A. degree. An emotional Ms. O'Connor blew a kiss, and the crowd was on its feet.

"I was totally blown away," Ms. O'Connor, a retired elementary schoolteacher, said on Wednesday. "I had no idea what was happening."

"Then I heard my name on the loud speaker," she said. "It was a total surprise."

Ms. O'Connor, who has a business degree from Notre Dame, has been by her son's side, literally, throughout every one of his classes at Chapman, a Los Angeles-area private school. She took all of his notes and typed for him when necessary, Ms. O'Connor said. But their collaboration extended to their home as well.

"We spent a lot of late-night hours together," she said. While Mr. O'Connor has assistive technology, Ms. O'Connor created his study guides and organized his notes.

Mr. O'Connor, a quadriplegic, was injured in 2012, when he fell down a flight of stairs while working at the packaging industry firm TricorBraun in Southern California. Before that, he was an athlete, snowboarding and playing volleyball at his alma mater, the University of Colorado, Boulder.

As for the surprise, "he got the ball rolling about three months ago," Ms. O'Connor said, while he was meeting with the university president Daniele Struppa.

Weight is down 3 lbs since I saw my kinesiologist! Would like to lose those last 5 lbs.

My chronic pain is now intermittent! Toe numbness slowly diminishing.

Now that it's warmer, I've been ending my shower on cold. Brisk, but exhilarating!

Sushi tasted especially good today.

Thanks, ScotBird! I'm sure now that my sciatic pain will be gone completely. I was certain it was permanent when I started this thread. Keep finding those little joys!
