Dickens is a really frugal choice for reading — you can get used copies really reasonably and price per page is almost nothing!

I was up to 11 when I injured my hip. Recovery is over and I'm up to about 5 miles again. Its been so hot its scary to do more. Congratulations on the 16 miles. Oh and inflation is understated, but since its measuring prices we've already paid the CPI lacks relavance. A better measure is to monitor your own budget and control expenses. But we all know that here. Wow 16 miles is impressive. I was up to 11 when I injured my hip. Recovery is over and I’m up to about 5 miles again. Its been so hot its scary to do more.

I read Bleak House back in 2006, inspired by the PBS mini-series. Dickens is a really frugal choice for reading -- you can get used copies really reasonably and price per page is almost nothing! I couldn't have used the library, though, it was a very long book and I have an intenal limit on renewing! To Susy @3, though, I'd say that eating healthy is a good idea for anyone before during or after cancer, but it won't on its own keep you from developing cancer. Hi.

At least one good thing that's coming out of all of this economic unrest is that people are finally buckling down and trying to save money and budget. It's too bad it took so long, might be a little too late. Like trying to eat healthy once you already have cancer. Wow, 16 miles congrats!!!

I didn't really care since I was doing it for organic veggies and for fun. Flash forward a few months later and everyone is telling me that I am a genius. I really like have a garden 10 feet from my back door. It is like having my own produce aisle in my back yard.
