This & All That Jazz

Beds

2011-03-04T14:20:00.000-06:00

For as long as I can remember my Mom has talked about wanting one of those adjustable beds. Actually the other day she said she is having to sleep propped up on a wedge to help her sleep. So, I know it's not just a want for her, it's an actual need. They got a new bed a few years ago & I'm not sure why they didn't get an adjustable bed then. But I bet she regrets it now.

Not Moving

2011-03-04T14:17:00.001-06:00

Well.....We are not moving to Tennessee after all. D lost his job. Not sure what the future hold for us at this point. Life is mixed up & so are my emotions.

Life insurance

2011-02-27T18:51:00.000-06:00

D & I were talking the other day about life insurance. Not the topic most people want to discuss, but one that is very important. As soon as he gets a new job, we are going to look into life insurance no exam. We are in our 30's now. We are not kids anymore & it's time we get things like life insurance in order. Life is way too short & you never know what it just around the corner. Goodness knows, we are very aware of that after the year we have had.

Insurance

2011-02-27T18:41:00.000-06:00

I have several family members who have had to use SSDI benefits. I don't know how they would have made it without those benefits. Insurance is such a blessing & if you have it you shouldn't take it for granted. We are without insurance right now & I have been dealing with some health issues. I just kept putting off going to the doctor, then I ended up in the ER. Thankfully, I got the care I needed.

2011-02-27T17:14:00.001-06:00

Milk

2011-02-20T18:50:00.001-06:00

Since I have not had any babies this is not a concern I have ever had. But I do have friends that needed to increase breast milk since they were breast feeding their babies. If & when I am able to get pregnant, I do plan on breast feeding. But I do know you can "plan" all you want to, but life some times has other ideas how things will work out.

Dark Circles

2011-02-20T18:35:00.000-06:00

Do you know how to get rid of dark circles under my eyes? I don't know how to get rid of them, but I do know how to cover them up. I learned some tricks back in the "make-up days." I miss those days from time to time. I wonder how far I would have gone in that career if we had stayed in LA. I would have loved to have become a freelance artist.

Naturally Clear

2011-02-20T18:03:00.000-06:00

Nowadays there is so much over processed, chemically enhanced stuff, it's nice when you can find things that are all natural or organic. Even natural acne remedies. Skin on your face is so sensitive to begin with, the last thing you want to do it pack a bunch of harsh things on there. I know there are times people are desperate for ance relief, but to be able to have clear skin naturally is best.

Valentine's Day

2011-02-20T17:51:00.000-06:00

I made this for D for LOVE day.

HTC HD7

2011-02-13T15:37:00.001-06:00

I got a new phone back before Christmas & I wanted a HTC HD7 sooooo badly, but I wans't able too. Have you seen these things? Oh me! Oh my! I love that there is a kickstand so you can watch TV/movies. How fun is that! I am also digging the fabulous camcorder.Maybe, just maybe I can upgrade this year.

Memory

2011-01-27T22:35:00.000-06:00

I take so many photos that it doesn't take long before it consumes my computer & makes it run too slow. I really need to invest in some more computer memory. Thankfully D has his own laptop now & I got to remove some of the things he had installed on mine. That helped a ton. Plus I saved my photos & put them in the fire proof box.

Merchandiser

2011-01-27T22:28:00.000-06:00

Most of my working days I spent in retail. I loved it for the most part. And one of my most favorite parts were doing the window displays & dressing the mannequins. I learned to be a good merchandiser from a very early age. My parents owned a gas station & my Mom taught me how to display things. One of my jobs were going up & down the aisle at night & making sure all of the products were facing out.

2 Fellas

2011-01-27T21:55:00.000-06:00

My 2 little fellas! They make me smile. :)

Jobs

2011-01-17T17:11:00.000-06:00

Back in November D lost his job. And it was out of the blue. He immediately search through jobs online. But thankfully he made a phone call to a friend & that friend referred him to a place in need of someone with D's skills in the sound industry. The catch...A move to Memphis. He is now on his 6th week of commuting. While I am home packing & looking online for homes. Hopefully we will know something on a house this week & the BIG move will officially happen.

Get the pounds off

2011-01-12T02:37:00.000-06:00

I have gained so much weight in the last year. Blah. And right now I am in the midst of so much emotional eating, with the move to Memphis & all the changes going on around me that are out of my control. I want to lose some weight, but there is no way I could even begin to focus on that. But once we get moved & settled I will be look a diet pill review for sure. I am going to need all of the help I can get.

Award Season

2011-01-12T02:30:00.000-06:00

Awards season is coming up. I just love seeing all of the dresses. I think I like to see the worst dressed list, more than the best. I know those ladies in Hollywood know of a crash diet that works, to fit into those new frocks. Please they want to be in tip tip shape for the thousands of photos that was taken during this time of the year. I can not imagine being set up for that kind of scrutiny these people are under on a daily bases.

War Eagle!

2011-01-12T02:17:00.000-06:00

This is how Rocco & I watched the National Championship. That is until I was jumping up & down yelling at the TV. Our team won!!!! War Eagle!

The Great Snow 2011

2011-01-09T02:30:00.000-06:00

Tomorrow we are expecting a "great" snow storm here in Alabama. If you know anything about Alabama weather, than you it does not snow here very often. So, when the weather men say "snow" there is a frenzy. The grocery stores are wiped clean of food & safety goods. And every generator in town including the honda generator eu2000i are sold out! This is serious business in these parts. You should see the isles at the grocery store tonight. There is nothing left.

Remodels

2011-01-09T02:23:00.000-06:00

I have been searching & searching the internet for a home for us. Some have been so cute. Then there are the ones that are horrendous. They need to be remodeled completely. Especially the bathrooms, which need a new toilet, bath vanity & tub. I am honestly not that picky. If I were, I wouldn't be living where I do now. Haha! But I want a home to be nice.

A new year

2011-01-09T02:14:00.000-06:00

Life is changing a lot right now. We made it through the Holidays. My house is now half packed up. D is commuting for work. We are looking for a place to live. And my head is swirling as my heart is breaking. Welcome 2011.

Pine

2010-12-28T03:35:00.000-06:00

I have some friends who have a log cabin at the river & the entire place is full of pine furniture, including pine beds. I have never been up to the cabin, but I have seen photos of it. My parents have spent several weekends there & absolutely love it. Maybe one day D & I will get the opportunity to take a mini vacation there. I know we would have a splendid time.

Bedroom Redo

2010-12-28T03:26:00.000-06:00

We are moving to Memphis & I am not quite sure where we will be living just yet, but I do know there will be some redecorating. I got some new bedding on Black Friday & it's a black & white damask print. If I could I would get some of these wall sconces to use in the master bedroom on either side of the bed.

And they are called Crystorama. I think that's pretty sa-weet!

Rocco Giving Me The Look

2010-12-28T03:10:00.001-06:00

Apple Bottom

2010-12-07T03:08:00.000-06:00

When I saw the words "apple bottom", that songs that says...

Shawty had them Apple Bottom Jeans [Jeans]
Boots with the fur [With the fur]
The whole club was lookin at her
She hit the flo [She hit the flo]
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low low low low low

I like that song....It's catchy! But it also makes me think of Nelly. I remember when he launched that line of jeans. But I don't think I have ever seen a pair in person. I know it's not just jeans now either. There is a whole line of stuff.

Star Struck

2010-12-07T03:00:00.001-06:00

When D & I were dating & first married we would watch wrestling. I think I was so in love I would have watched anything just to spend time with my new man. We were living in LA & one day one of the famous wrestlers went walking through the store I was working at, at the time. I was completely star struck, so I went running after them & got their autograph. It was my first star sighting. It was so funny because my co-workers thought I was nuts...They had no clue who that wrestler was.

Pounds Overload

2010-12-07T02:55:00.000-06:00

I was looking up apidexin & it says you can possibly lose 4-7 pounds a week while using it. Those are some pretty good odds. I would love to lose that a week...I would love to lose more than that, but ya know! I would settle for any weight lose at this point. This last year I have put on way more pounds than I am willing to admit. Life has been crazy & food had been my very best friend.

The Kids

2010-12-07T02:44:00.000-06:00

Blackheads be gone

2010-11-28T17:06:00.001-06:00

Even though I have rarely had to deal with bad skin, I do have blackheads on my nose. And so does D. It would be need to find a www.homeremediesforblackheads.com to help with ridding mine & D's nose of blackheads. I have used those little stick pads that pulls the blackheads out, but it seems to just leave your pores open for more dirt to collect. So there has to be something better to use & or prevent the blackheads.

Vitamins Baby!

2010-11-28T16:58:00.000-06:00

I need to find some of the best multivitamins. I had a cabinet full of all kinds, but as I finished up a bottle I wouldn't replenish my supply. Now I am completely out. After Mom had gastric bypass, vitamins became a huge part of her daily routine. She has a basket overflowing with them at her house. I guess if I ever really needed some, I could just walk next door & snag a few.

Skinny Minded

2010-11-28T16:46:00.000-06:00

I don't think there is a day that goes by that I don't see an ad for weightloss diet pills, on TV, in a magazine, on the web & now they are on the side on my e-mail! It's pure madness. But it is just proof of our true desire to lose the pounds that weigh us down. I have battled it my entire life. I do not remember a time, when weight was not on my mind. I was always the biggest kid in elementary school, in all areas. But I stopped getting taller & everyone passed me. I just continued to grow wider! Haha!

War Eagle!

2010-11-28T16:41:00.001-06:00

Microphones

2010-11-18T16:14:00.000-06:00

From the time I was very little I had a great love of music. And thought I had to have a shine microphone to sing with. Mom made me one out of aluminium foil. I was the happiest singing little girl you can imagine. Then when I became a teen, I began singing in church & once again a microphone was in my hand. Then I married a soundman & yet again microphones are in my life, but these are not made of aluminium foil.

Putting Stuff To Good Use

2010-11-18T15:49:00.000-06:00

I have been doing alot of couponing for the last couple of years & I get free stuff from time to time. Once I got some acne products, but had no use for them. I just put them in my "stock pile" of stuff. Then found out about a father who had lost his job & he had 2 teenagers. So I fixed up a bag full of all kinds of products. I added the acne stuff to it. I figured they could use them. One thing that makes a stressful situation even more stress if being worried about your appearance...Especially for a teen. I hope they got to put them to good use.

Reviews

2010-11-18T15:40:00.000-06:00

Just like anything else in this world there are good and bad phentermine reviews. I guess you just need to weed through them, talk to your doctor & discover what is best for you. I have personally used it before & found some success. The best success though was with making healthy food choices & adding exercise to my daily routine. The most I lost was around 50 pounds.

Christmas Trees!

2010-11-18T15:15:00.000-06:00

I am always looking for inspiration & gift ideas & found the cutest place full of stuff www.personalcreations.com

I love, love, love this ornament tree! I have been wanting one for a long time. I think they are sooooo neat! Maybe I will finally get one this year. I'm not sure where I would put it though. I already have 3 Christmas trees going up. And have thought about putting up one for the "furbabies." I'll be honest my trees are usually up already, but there has just been no time to get them out. I am going to have to make time though. I have not been in the Christmas mood.

Holiday Painting

2010-11-18T14:51:00.000-06:00

So.....It's a week from Thanksgiving. I am consumed with painting. I'm finishing up a batch today. And doing some deliveries tomorrow. I enjoy it, but I am ready to set that paint brush down & enjoy the holidays.

Inkjet

2010-11-10T18:47:00.000-06:00

With my "little painting business" going on, I seem to use my printer more than normal. I actually just sent Daniel to go get some inkjet cartridges. Can not work without ink in the printer. How easy it is nowadays to change ink cartridges. I can remember a time when it seemed like you had to basically stand on your head to change them! Thankfully those days are over.

Jewelry Making

2010-11-10T18:17:00.000-06:00

I have recently been working at a place that sales costume jewelry & I am sit tagging some of the piece I think about how fun it would be to design & create my very own unique pieces of jewelry. I would need to get some jewelry making tools, beads & some wire to start off with. I am sure I would enjoy it. I am in the midst of doing tons of painting right now, so the idea of being creative in another medium sounds very appealing.

Office Decor

2010-10-29T01:49:00.002-05:00

We have a room that used to be considered the "computer room" but once we got a laptop, it is now the dogs room. I would love to remodel the room one of these day & turn into a home office/ craft room. And this photo would for sure hang in it. I have loved this photo since the very first time I saw it when I was a kid. I would need some special office décor, but I would want the room to have a very retro feel. That I know for sure.

Project Runway...

2010-10-29T01:42:00.001-05:00

...I am mad at you.

Grateful for driving

2010-10-27T02:18:00.001-05:00

As I was driving home from the grocery store today I was thinking about how long I have been driving. find that has been 17 yrs. And sometimes I am still amazed that I can. I don't take the ability to drive for granted. I think that may be partly to do the fact that we have one car & me driving feels like a luxury since I don't have the care very often. Thankfully in all my years of driving I have been blessed to not be pulled over, except for once. But nothing happened....Thankfully. I have a friend that has the best radar detector money can buy. I once went with him on a trip to Florida & I know for a fact he would have been pulled over on several occasions if not for that thing. He's a scary driver & I was oh so grateful to finally be home.

Stock Market

2010-10-21T00:53:00.000-05:00

I have zero clue about the stock market. I don't know the difference between Forex charts & a technical chart. My mind goes completely blank when it comes to it all. I'm glad there are people out there that know all the ends & outs of those numbers & what it all means. But as for me....No way! I'm a do-do.

Chin Acne

2010-10-21T00:45:00.001-05:00

I haven't ever dealt with acne much, but the older I have gotten the more it has been a bit of a problem. When I do occasionally get it, it's normally around my nose or on my chin. It drives me crazy. Maybe I should go to http://www.chinacne.org & buy some acne treatment. I wouldn't need it much, but when those little boogers pop up, I would be ready!

Wedding Shows

2010-10-21T00:39:00.000-05:00

I've been married for over 10 years, but I still love watching wedding shows. There are so many on now that there always seems to be one on. Actually there is a new wedding channel, I don't have that one, but wouldn't totally watch it if I did. I just adore everything about the shows. From what flowers they choose for the centerpieces, to the wedding dress, to the interactions with the planners. It's all so dramatic & fun!

Where did the year go???

2010-10-21T00:24:00.001-05:00

How in the world did most of October pass me by???? I am freaking out a bit with the idea that this year is almost over. Didn't it just turn 2010? Every year I know I say this year was the fastest year ever. But honestly...This was the fastest year ever!

Flashlights

2010-10-11T02:29:00.000-05:00

Christmas if fast approaching & with that Christmas shopping & looking for the perfect gifts for those we love. Danny is always one that stumps me when it comes to finding him something. One thing he loves is flashlights. I don't know how many flashlights I have bought him throughout the years, for Christmas, birthdays & Father's Days. I don't think he has any led flashlights so I guess that is what he will be getting this year.

New Insurance

2010-10-11T02:20:00.000-05:00

I've been thinking lately that we may need to get some new car insurance quotes. I am just trying to think of the best way to cut back on some of the bills & this may be one way to help if we can find the same kind of coverage but for a cheaper price. Even if it's just $10-$20, that would be worth changing insurance companies. These days we are pinching pennies so every little bit helps.

♥

2010-10-11T02:17:00.002-05:00

Me & my love on our last date night. I love him.

Needs Some Tickets

2010-09-29T17:34:00.000-05:00

A few months ago tons of my friends kept talking about Taylor Swift tickets on facebook. How they needed them or wanted them. One I think even won a pair. Most were parents with young daughters & had planned on taking them to her concert as a big treat. It was so cute after they went to the concert seeing all the picture they posted from the big night. I even had several friends in their 30's that went as a "Girl's Night Out." They all wore cowboys boots & fun dresses. I think the next time Taylor Swift comes to town, I need to go! It looked like too much fun.

Molly Girl

2010-09-29T17:23:00.001-05:00

Molly turned 14 yrs old this week. It is so hard to believe it! It feels she has been apart of my life forever, but yet it seems she is still a puppy. What a sweet blessing she has been.

Acne Tips

2010-09-29T17:21:00.000-05:00

I will never forget when I was a young teen, I hurt a friends feeling so badly. She had horrible acne & would cake on tons of make-up to hide it. It looked so bad. Mom had told me that the make-up she was using to cover the pimples was only making it worse & that she shouldn't wear it. What she needed was some good acne tips. I had invited her to go to my church for a concert. While extending the invite I said, "You can go but you can't wear all of that make-up to my church." I still to this day don't know why I said that. It was so mean! As the words were flowing from my lips I knew it was wrong. And then the look on her face was one of hurt. She did go to church with me, but our friendship was never the same.

A Perfect Vacation

2010-09-15T19:03:00.001-05:00

Imagine someone saying that you could take a vacation anywhere of your choice...For free. Where would you choose to go? I have a list of "must go" places & one of those on the list is to the Outer Banks. I had never heard of the Outer Banks until a few years ago, when I saw a special on TV. That place is stunning! One of my good friends in from North Carolina & she has had the pleasure of vacationing there. I was soooo jealous seeing the photos she posted on her blog of her fabulous trip. I was looking at Outer Banks vacation homes on Carolina Designs & dreaming of one of those spectacular places on the beach. I can just imagine Daniel & I lounging on the large porches of a house like this one & eating seafood til our hearts content. Maybe one day we will get our chance. Here's to hoping!

Remover

2010-09-15T18:40:00.000-05:00

I love, love. love using a blackhead remover on D's nose! It is so much fun. I get a kick at seeing all the junk that comes out. I know it's gross but I like picking at things....I don't get pimples very often, but they are fun to pop. Haha! I wish I could find a fat remover....Now that would be a blast to use! If only.....

Yikes!

2010-09-15T17:51:00.000-05:00

Have you ever been at someone's house...Ya know, a bunch a people watching TV & a commercial for natural male enhancement pills comes on? Then everyone gets a bit embarrassed? Haha! One time I was watching a certain movie with my in-laws & brother-in-law & there was a questionable scene & that's putting it mildly. I wanted to dig a hole & crawl in it!

Diet Mania

2010-09-15T17:01:00.000-05:00

I think I came out of the womb, searching for a supersize fry. And I think I went on my first diet, when I was 8 or 9. So that means, over 20 years of dealing with weight issues. Yikes! I've never thought about it that way. You would have thought, I would have won that battle by now. There are somethings I tried, that actually work, but I just didn't stick to them, including exercise, Weight Watchers & low carb. I do have a few medical things stacked against me, so it's an even bigger challenge for me. I'm gonna check out a few diet pill reviews, to see if I can find something that will help me.

The Hummers

2010-09-15T16:50:00.000-05:00

I just adore these sweet little birds! They make life outside my window full of life! The season is coming to a end & they will be flying South soon. I'm gonna miss them.

What Is It?

2010-09-15T16:46:00.000-05:00

Herpes simplex...What is it? I know when someone hears the word "herpes" they get a bit squeamish. But herpes simplex is basically cold sores & fever blisters. Not so scary after all. I don't think I have ever had one. I used to have a friend that seemed to keep them, so they were always putting some kinda ointment on their lips.

Acne Cream

2010-09-15T16:14:00.000-05:00

When I was a teen I didn't have an abundance of acne. But I wanted to badly to use the latest acne cream on the market. So I would get my Mom to buy it for me. I'm sure she was thinking, "What in the world is this for?" It was a way for me to "fit in" so to speak. I wanted to be like everyone else, when I was so different.

Stuff To Paint

2010-09-15T16:06:00.000-05:00

I just adore going to the arts & craft store! It's like a little piece of Heaven to me. I paint ornaments & have had people ask for me to make some that are not breakable. So I found some thin plywood that I have been using & people seem to love them. I'm even selling some in a bookstore. I am thinking of adding plaques & canvas to my inventory.

Ornament Making

2010-09-15T15:38:00.001-05:00

I have been making tons of ornaments lately....Here is one of the "fan" favorites!

Credit Report

2010-09-13T23:25:00.003-05:00

I have never done one of those free credit report things. Have you? There always seems to be a commercial or ad for one. I am honestly scared to know my credit score because I know it's not good. It was at one time. I have worked hard to keep it good, but then I got married, we went into the ministry & ended up having to live off credit cards. It have been a never ending battle trying to get out of that.http://www.creditscorequick.com/

Bathroom Makeover

2010-08-29T15:25:00.001-05:00

Even though I am grateful to have a home & working bathroom, I hate how mine looks. It needs to much work. I have some grand ideas of it makeover. Not sure when it will ever happen, but it never hurts to dream, now does it? I have a "idea book" that I keep pages from magazines or web addresses for things I like, such as paint colors, bathroom accessories, vanities & shower curtains. So, when the time comes to do this makeover I will have all the inspiration I need.

Chipmunks

These little cuties have been very busy around here lately.

A New Camera

2010-08-12T01:09:00.000-05:00

I need a new camera soooooo bad! I love photography & taking pictures is a passion of mine. But my camera is ancient, compared to what is out on the market today. I was saving my money for a new super duper awesome camera, but life swooped in & I had to use my savings. Oh well....But when I am able to go shopping for my dream camera, I am going to ask my photographer friends for advice on what's the best, as well as reading camera reviews. I also wouldn't mind a new video camera too! I think I need to work on a wish list!

Summer~Summer~Summer Time

2010-08-12T00:35:00.001-05:00

This Summer has been one of the hottest I can ever remember around here. It's been in the 100's consistently. That just doesn't happen. We always have a 100 here of there, but 100's for days....Yikes! I haven't even been opening my curtain in the house to keep the heat out. It makes it super gloomy, but you have to do all you can to keep things cool.

New Laptop

2010-07-24T17:14:00.000-05:00

D is wanting his own laptop. I told him since I use the laptop the most that I should be the one getting the new one & he can have mine. :) Not sure how well that will go over, but it seems quite logical to me! We can't buy 2nd laptop time right now, but we have been looking at different brands including Asus. Not sure which direction we will go in when the time comes, but as soon as or car is paid off...New laptop here we come!

Door Chimes

2010-07-24T17:09:00.000-05:00

I have never lived in a house that has door chimes. But I think it would be fun to have them. I know we need them here at our house, especially if we are asleep. We have fans in the bedroom & we can't here someone knock. So door chimes would be good. Someone stopped by not long ago & if not for the dogs barking I would not have known anyone was at my door. If we got door chimes, I would want them to play a cute tune. The "I Love Lucy" tune would be perfect!

Comparison chart

2010-07-10T19:50:00.000-05:00

In all of this talk about fat & losing weight, I need to find a weight loss pill comparison chart or something. There are so many out there it is easy to get confused or just not even know where to begin. You know there are a lot to choose from when there is an entire aisle at the store devoted just to them. And that's not even all that is out there!

Burn some fat

2010-07-10T19:44:00.000-05:00

Boy, do I have some fat that needs to find some fat burners fast! I am tried of being overweight. I mean...Really tired. And I am typing this as I eat a candy bar...Go figure! Honestly though.....I want to get healthy, not skinny. Skinny wouldn't be bad, but healthy is more important. I think some changes are in my future.

Helps to lose weight

2010-07-10T19:23:00.000-05:00

I think I am possible at my heaviest & I hate it. I haven't been eating more, just not as active as I need to be. But I have zero energy....I have different health issues that make me so tired & that is why it is so hard to lose weight & keep it off. I think I may look into some apidexin. Maybe that stuff can help with kick starting my weight loss.

Something New

2010-07-10T19:16:00.000-05:00

Danny made this awesome gate for our front porch. We love it!

Natural

2010-07-04T22:45:00.000-05:00

Out of all the diet potions out there, I wonder just how many are natural weight loss products. So many things out there are dangerous & you have no clue what is in them. But to find something natural & possibly organic would be the best way to go when trying to lose weight with the aid of a product. Now, it's just finding the natural ones in the sea of the bad stuff.

Supplements

2010-07-04T22:34:00.000-05:00

I think when people hear diet supplement, that think diet pills, but that is not the only supplements out there. They include a list of things...vitamins, minerals, fiber, protein, fatty acids, amino acids...It's really anything that provides nutrients. Especially something our body may be lacking & we need more of. So when you walk down the vitamin aisle at the store you are actually going down the diet supplement aisle.

Alli Reviews

2010-07-04T22:26:00.000-05:00

I have taken prescription diet pills & over the counter ones too, but have been curious about alli. I see the commercials & it looks to be a pill that works. Of course there is no magic pill, but with healthy eating & exercise, it helps. I have been reading some alli reviews & I have things look encouraging. I may just have to give it a try. Then I will be able to give my own review.

2010-07-04T22:14:00.001-05:00

Us celebrating the 4th!

Vitamins

2010-06-20T17:31:00.002-05:00

I know since my Mom had gastric bypass surgery, she has to take all different kinds of supplements. One being prenatal vitamins. I wonder if she has taken vitafol prenatal vitamins. She probably has, I know she has tried all different ones. I do know that prenatal vitamins are some of the best vitamins anyone can take. You don't have to be pregnant.

Weight Tips

2010-05-28T14:11:00.000-05:00

Growing up with a Mom who struggled with her weight, the subject of quick weight loss tips were one I heard often. If it is been out there, I'm sure she tried it or at least thought about it. I have also battled the bulge the majority of my life. I was thinking the last time I wore a bikini, I was 3 years old. I am now 33. Haha! Oh my, just now as I type that I am realizing that I have dealt with weight issues for 30 yrs. Wow!

Too Cute

This video is so funny!

Thrown away

2010-05-26T23:18:00.000-05:00

I was looking in our medicine cabinet the other day & couldn't find what I was looking for because of all the expired junk in there. It was something I had been needing to do anyway, but at 1 am I was throwing out all sorts of stuff. Cough drops, weight loss pills, antibiotics, ear drops, ect. I hate when things don't get used up before it expires & it ends up in the trash.

Hair Loss

2010-05-26T22:56:00.000-05:00

I used to have thick curly hair & hated it. I complained all the time about it. Now that I have had some health issues my hair isn't nice & thick like it used to be. And it does bother me. I have been searching some hair loss treatment for women. One thing I have learned is be grateful for what you have, because one day it may not be there. And stop complaining.

Sleep Tight

2010-05-26T22:10:00.000-05:00

I wish I were someone how can fall fast asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow. My husband is like that. And once he is asleep the house could down around him & he would never know it. Me on the hand has to sorta decompress. I have to read or watch TV. But I also have to be exhausted. And if I know I have to get up early, the idea of going to sleep taunts me. I need to look into the best sleeping pills for me. So I can get a good nights rest.

Books

2010-05-26T21:55:00.001-05:00

There is a local place that sell used books. It is owned by the very odd older man & that is putting it mildly. I have never gone in there alone & never will. And if you give him a chance to start talking....Watch out, because he will not shut up for anything. I really don't know how the place even stays open there is rarely anyone in there. Any time I pass it I always look to see if it has closed down.

Mom's gift

2010-05-26T21:46:00.001-05:00

The time has already passed for this year, but you can never start to early looking for great mothers day gifts. Mom's are pretty special & shouldn't be left for the last minute. I was at the store the night before Mother's day & was shocked at the people rummaging through the leftover cards to find "something" to give. How sad is that? I made my Mom a gift this year, but I always try to do something that will mean something to her & not a flimsy card.

Drive In Baby!

2010-05-26T21:34:00.000-05:00

D & I went to the drive in a couple of weekends ago & saw Iron Man 2. We had such a fun time. It was a surprisingly cool Southern night with honeysuckle strong in the air. We took some hot dogs wrapped in foil & Route 44 slushies from Sonic. Sweet times for sure.

Invitations

2010-05-16T23:25:00.000-05:00

Since I call D "Honey D" & he calls me "Honey C" I thought if we ever had a baby would call it "Honey B" as a nickname. I found these baby shower invitations that would be perfect.

So cute! The entire shower could be all Bee themed. I just love it! I just wish now it would actually happen, so the planning & the fun could begin! One day...One day...One day.....

Weight Loss

2010-05-16T01:10:00.000-05:00

I have been given a many different kinds of weight loss supplement from doctors. I have also found over the counters ones from the drug store & some from the health store. Some have worked while others haven't. There are some that you can feel working, while others you feel nothing. I know that for me, I can not lose without some kind of supplement. It's just finding the right one that works.

Burning fat foods

2010-05-16T01:04:00.000-05:00

With changing the way I eat, adding some food that burns fat would also help. I was doing some research on this & found some lists. On those lists were these foods...Cayenne pepper, cinnamon, ginger, Citrus fruit, apples & berries, soybeans, bananas, garlic & also dairy products. I think I need to go to the grocery store & load up on this stuff!

Diet Pill Reviews

2010-05-16T00:52:00.000-05:00

Goodness...Is it time to do something about my weight! I need to find something that will help aide in the weight lose. I was looking at the apidexin reviews. From what I have read it is a very powerful diet pill. It's not just a diet pill, but also a fat burner. And it's made of some of the best quality ingredients. Might be something worth looking into.

Nicer Couch

2010-04-29T09:57:00.001-05:00

We have a used couch. It's is pretty good condition. Has good bones. But the fabric is faded & has some stains. I would love to a slip cover for it, but it is a couch that has 4 large pillows, instead of a normal cushion. I guess I will need to look into some custom slipcovers. I would love to go with a deep red color. I have always wanted a red couch for some reason.

2010-04-25T00:04:00.000-05:00

Lose it quick

2010-04-24T23:18:00.000-05:00

I have so much weight to lose that quick weight loss is not the answer. Of course, I want it off quick, who doesn't? I have lost 15 pounds recently, but it took over 2 months to do so. I wish food addiction was not my problem. But I guess it could be worse. Maybe one day I will be free from this burden.

Ones that work

2010-04-24T23:12:00.000-05:00

I wish I could find diet pills that work for me. The Doctor put me on some that have worked before, but now they don't. It's aggravating. I don't ever remember losing weight without the aide of something. Not only do the diet pills help me lose weight, but they give me energy. Something I lack. If I have energy I get moving & helps with the weight lose.

Blue Light Therapy

2010-04-15T22:25:00.000-05:00

I have never heard of blue light therapy before. So I did some researching on it & found some very cool info. It is an amazing treatment for acne. Who knew? Not me, that is for sure. It kills the bacteria that causes acne, plus helps reduce inflammation. If I had acne problems I would for sure give this type of treatment a try!

Insurance Safety

2010-04-15T22:12:00.000-05:00

Thankfully we have all of our insurance stuff in order, but I do remember when I was just starting out on my own having to get insurance quotes. I'm sure we will have have to do so again, when we start a family. Insurance is just a part of life & finding the one that is best for you & your family comes along with it. Even is you are hoping you never have to use it.

Want To Get Moving!

2010-04-15T21:39:00.000-05:00

I know I need to exercise. Everyone needs to in some compacity. I do have some physical limitations, but I know exercise would most definitely help in strengthening my body. I don't have a way to go to a gym & my neighborhood isn't the best for walking, so I need to find something I can do in my home. And that thing is an elliptical. Oh, how I would love, love, love to have one!

LCD TV's

2010-04-15T21:32:00.000-05:00

I think one of the hottest gifts this past Christmas was an LCD TV. I know when I was out shopping on Black Friday people were lined up around buildings for hours to get the best deal of the day. And I know there were alot of very happy people on Christmas morning! We don't have an LCD TV. I'm sure we will get one in the future, but it is so not a priority for us now. We got a newer TV when a hotel replaced all their TV's with LCD TV, so I think we are set for awhile.

Car Insurance

2010-03-30T19:25:00.000-05:00

When I started driving, my parents immediately added me to their car insurance. When I moved out of state, I got different insurance on my own. Then after getting married & the budget was extra tight, we changed to another insurance that was cheaper, but ended up having better coverage. We haven't needed to use it, but I'm sure there are some out there searching for some insurance & I bet carinsurancelist blog has some good companies to choose from.

Cell Phones

2010-03-30T19:14:00.000-05:00

Remember when we used to say cellular phones? They were huge! I think when they first came out they were in big carrying cases. Now they are so tiny, you can barely see them. I guess they are so small now that they have to be called a smaller word...Cell. Along with things getting smaller, so does the way we say stuff. Actually now words are either abbreviations or an acronyms.
