Gwen's site: Notes from Joan Batlle

	Gwendolyn Piper Steeves: Notes from Joan Batlle We all miss you and your mom at the Curves in Evanston and wish you would stop in one day to visit. How is your little elephant? Can't believe you will be walking soon.

In another year or two, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. My kids couldn't get enough of it.
Any book strong enough to chew on.

Don't even know if these are available anymore. The Wee Sing Series. They will drive Mom and Dad nuts, but they are addicting to young developing minds.

Forget that you ever heard bad workout music at Curves.
Just saw Willie Nelson last night and can recommend him for your many moods to come. Also, he will teach you not to find your men at rodeos or honky tonks.

Learn to trust your gut and become an astute observer of your fellow humans. 99% of the people you meet are well meaning and kind, the other 1% you must learn to recognize and run, don't walk, from. Start developing this skill now and you will be fine when you become a teenager and mom and dad aren't there to protect you. Unfortunately, no web site for this (yet!!).
Secondly (and this is embedded in your little baby brain somewhere), strength training is the missing element in most womens' work out and diet routines...The Tao of Curves
