Every boyfriend or husband has the pressure to get a gift for Valentine's day. When my husband married me he got double pressure, my birthday is February 13th the day before Valentine's day. I use to tease him and call it my "birthday, Valentine's extravaganza." To top it off, my sister was born on my birthday so my family has two birthdays to celebrate.
My birthday extravaganza pales in comparison to my kid's birthdays. My girls' were born close to Christmas. So now every year we celebrate the "Thanksgiving, birthday, Christmas, New Year's, birthday extravaganza. Because of the kids closeness to the holidays we actually celebrate 1/2 birthdays. Nothing big, we just do something a little special for them, like have their favorite meal or let them pick out something they want from the store. Talk about pressure!
Good luck to all you Valentine's shoppers! Don't give into the pressure.
You might have heard me on the radio go on and on about snow. I love it! I have so many good memories of snow days, plus it makes everything look so beautiful. I am under the belief that if it is winter and you live here in WV then it should snow.
I can tell that the no snow days off from school is taking a toll on my daughter. She is starting to get a little Spring fever.
I loved it when we had all that snow 2 years ago. It was amazing and the best part of all it makes everyone stay home. Admit it you like it once in awhile when you can just stay home, eat some good ol' veggie beef soup and watch t.v..
Snow days also make us slow down. From driving to running errands it takes our busy lives and slows us down.
So are we going to have any more snow this year? I hope so! (Sorry you snow haters...you've had a good winter so far!)
This is why I love my job! Today, one of the guests on Panhandle Live (on our sister station WEPM) is Carrie Chase. She is

Some people celebrate President's day by shopping for furniture, cars, or just sleeping in. The women in these pictures celebrated by goosing the President. See, President Obama was campaigning in San Francisco, and two seperate women took the photo...

Here's one of my favorites and I hope you like it!
It came together kind of accidentally, inspired by a recipe from Kraft which called for VELVEETA (YUK)… instead, I decided to go with a classic creamy cheese sauce made from scratch. I...
I have always said my 2 favorite breakfast foods are pancakes and bacon. I wish I could have been there to witness this fun. Over 900 students in England set a new Guiness World Record for flipping flapjacks yesterday. Read here for the whole...
So it's the day after Valentine's day and we made it through. I did get a couple of pieces of chocolate from the intern yesterday...and my trainer showed his love by making our workout group do tons of squats. Ugh. I'm sore today as a result....
So this one seems like a "duh" but whatever. There was recently a survey asking people about streee. The results? (here's the duh part) If you're a guy, you're most likely stressed out about your job. If you're a woman,...
Some days you wake up and get going and realize that your brain is still in bed under the covers sleeping. Today is one of those for me definitely. I need a weekend to recover from my weekend. On Saturday night I saw Howie Mandel, and on Sunday night, I...
Do you remember the band Savage Garden? Of course you do! Well, former front-man Darren Hayes has a new album that is amazing! It is called "Secret Codes and Battleships". My biggest problem with the album is that it has not been promoted at...

I'm single and I'm just not that fond of Valentines day. Maybe it's because for one day you are meant to feel like a loser if you aren't paired up in a relationship. It's more a commercial holiday than anything else. At any rate, I...
Weather experts and allergists are saying that due to the short (or nonexistent) winter, allergy season is arriving early this year. They say that it's here because of the warmth and humidity in the air. Read more about why you might be coughing,...

I'm a self admitted Madonna fan. When I heard she'd be performing (even if it was lip syncing) at the Super Bowl on Sunday, I was excited to see her bring it. Lots of people have had thoughts about it. Some say, she looked tired, some people said...
Its Super Bowl Sunday! I thought I would do a little write up to get you ready for the big game today on NBC between the New England Patriots and New York Giants. This will catch up people who don't watch football and also provide good information...

Do you eat cereal for breakfast? Do you know which cereals rank highest and fiber, sugar content etc? I can spend 30 minutes in the cereal aisle trying to compare nutrition facts and label. I just came across a blog post from Diet.com about the best and...
Seriously funny stuff...I wonder what the girlfriend initailly thought of this website and book. It's kind of poking fun at her and the fact that she and her boyfriend argue about silly things. It also just shows you how human you are when you fuss...
Folks fib more frequently when text messaging, a new study suggests. Why? They feel like their words aren’t as closely scrutinized. Rather, they believe they are watched far more closely by their peers when communicating face-to-face and/or via...
