Recently, I was given the opportunity to try out "Cover Plug". Even though I don't have any tiny babies crawling around, my youngest, who is 4 years old, loves to plug things in. With this product, she couldn't get her way because the whole outlet is covered! I was amazed on how well this works. If you have crawling babies or mischievous toddlers, then this product is for you! Here is what they say at their site: The paintable CoverPlug is one product with two uses: it … [Read more...]
EA Sports Active Update – Day 19
June 19, 2009 by 3 Comments
I fell off the exercise wagon two weeks ago. I couldn't help it. And I was so ready for the 30 Day Challenge but I forgot about the "woman issues" that I go through. Back & abdominal pain, bloating, feeling nauseous, tired, etc...the list can go on and on. But I did hop back on the wagon and I'm continuing the challenge. So far, I've done 10 workouts and I feel great! My legs are a bit toned and I've lost some of my "love handles". Slowly but surely I can tell I'm losing the fat … [Read more...]
Trying to Lose weight? Remember to eat your fats!
June 15, 2009 by 2 Comments
Most people think they need to start eating low fat or eat no fat at all in order to lose weight. That is true, to a point. They forget that our bodies need the "good" fats in order for our metabolism to work properly and to stay healthy and stay away from the "bad" fats such as saturated fats that clog up your arteries. The editors from Fitness Magazine say to have a small amount of fat in every meal. It digests slowly, so you'll feel satisfied for a longer period of time and you'll eat … [Read more...]

I decided to do one of these while I was reading Isolated Existence (which is a great blog), so I thought I should do one too. So here are mine: 1. I grew up thinking I was fat because I have thick thighs. 2. Twitter was the last website I was at before coming here. 3. Why don't you sign up for Swagbucks? It's awesome! 4. Coffee helps me relax. 5. Thanks for the visit, I really appreciate it.. 6.Laundry sometimes can become very off-putting. 7. And as for the … [Read more...]
Wordless Wednesday – The Ants Go Marching…
June 10, 2009 by 6 Comments
While I was picking up my kids mess in the bathroom, I spotted an ant. I grabbed a book that my daughter left on the floor and this is what I grabbed to kill the little bastard. How funny! I absolutely did not know that book was in the bathroom. I guess since we've been finding ants in the house, my daughter decided to leave this book in the bathroom and read it while she handles business. For more Wordless Wednesday and to participate, go to Momspective for great photos & 5 … [Read more...]

Last Saturday, my sister, my girls and I were on the bus to go to her house after having a fabulous day in the city (post coming soon). My sister pointed out a billboard that was up above the windows on the bus. When I first saw it, I thought it was just for married people. I didn't know it would be a site for so much more. If you want to improve your relationship with your other half, this site is perfect for the two of you. If you're a parent, dating someone, engaged, living … [Read more...]

I always get burned!
June 5, 2009 by 6 Comments
When it comes to cooking, most of the time I get burned. Since I'm trying to do so many things at once, sometimes I forget that the pots are hot. Oh and don't get me started on breaking fights/arguments, telling my kids to keep it down or even hearing my 4 year old cry about something. I'm lucky to have dinner in less than an hour most days. Yesterday when I was cooking dinner, my daughter started talking to me about school, which isn't an unusual thing. She loves to talk about school … [Read more...]

Thank goodness yesterday was my rest day because my lower body was SCREAMING with soreness. I couldn't believe how sore I was. Every time I would sit down, I could feel my leg muscles burning. It was uncomfortable but well worth it. I can't wait until my body is lean and toned. I am so happy I was given the opportunity to try this out to see for myself if it can actually melt off the fat and tone your body. People, it actually works! I can tell already with just 3 workouts! Since I … [Read more...]
My favorite mom saying won!
May 29, 2009 by 5 Comments
I couldn't believe when I received the email fromLeTop. It said, "Congratulations on your recent win on your favorite mom sayings" I was so excited! It was a secret Twitter - only contest and I decided to enter just for the fun of it. I sent them what I usually say to my family. I had no idea I would win although I was hoping to. I was so glad I entered. It all started several years ago when my son couldn't find something in the refrigerator. I forgot what it was but I know it was … [Read more...]
