This post is from from my other blog here

When the folks at Parent Bloggers Network offered me a chance to review James Lehman’s Total Transformation Program I leapt at the chance. I had heard his 30-minute infomercial on the radio and thought it sounded interesting.

Best of Comedy Central II Now that the kids are at school all day, I like to watch movies while I take a break from the computer and do household chores like folding laundry. But this week I’ve been sick, too, so it’s nice to have a video to watch instead of re-watching Ice Road Truckers or The Real Housewives for the millionth time.
