Getting Healthier- Starting with cutting out SODA! One of the goals that David and I have had for quite some time is to cut out the drinking of soda/not drink as much soda. I actually went an entire summer not that long ago and didn't have any AT ALL and lost about 10lbs. I generally do really well with NOT drinking it because I don't really buy any that I like- I just get whatever David wants and then I know I won't drink it! Oh and while we are on it I do NOT do diet soda - i think it is absolutely horrid! Lately, I have not been doing so well on that front though! Really though the most soda I drink tends to be when we go out to eat somewhere or when I am at my mom and dads for the most part. I know that David does a lot worse on this level than I do -and he even gets really bad kidney infections and stuff because of drinking certain sodas more than he should. Say Hello To Sparkling Ice! Available in Tea, Water & Lemonade! I personally try to drink green tea for my main … [Read more...]
Monday & Weather Event ?
Hey Everyone Well - I had thought we were going to have all this "winter weather" here today- it changed so many times I was like RIGHT.. but it was supposed to start at 2 a/m or so... When we got up for David to go to work it was NOTHING and was supposed to move in at noon... Now I might be seeing stuff-- it is 10 a.m or so- but the parking lot is wet and I thought I saw some light snow/sleet and if it were to keep up/get heavier/stick I know they will send David home from work. With it being as cold as it was this morning I am shocked they weren't delayed or off work period. The weekend was a fly by! I know that Saturday we got out and about for a bit and then yesterday I did manage to write a review (my goal is 2-3 more today!- well at least ONE you know :) ) and other than that it was pretty low key. I Had hoped to get over to my parents but it just never happened. . I don't know the last time I Was over there and with my dad being out of work with his elbow I know my … [Read more...]

Bad News, Cold Weather
Hey Everyone Well today for me has been a little bit slow going and it seems like it isn't going to perk up either! I know that David and Dad were on a delay again but with the way David kind of picks and chooses when he goes in (sometimes 530 sometimes 630) and what not he must have split it down the middle and went at the normal time! We ended up staying up WAY too late last night, and in my defense I told him at 11 it was getting late and we should go to bed but he didn't listen so... also , he lolly gagged around the house before we went to walmart/dinner last night until nearly 8 so.. yeah! I know that my mom made my dad go to the DR today because he was having some problems with his elbow/arm and well they have spent basically the entire day at the DR office and apparently it is broken /stress fractures and what not so they are referring him to a specialist, and have taken him out of work for a week.. I Know that my dad has oodles of vacay time that he can take but it … [Read more...]
Review: NY Style Pita Chips #ad #sponsored #review
I know it seems that everyone always does the whole "new year, new me" thing a the beginning of the year and most people come up with goals to be more healthy and work out and eat better and all of that kind of thing. I have to admit to being on that bandwagon a bit myself so when people knock others who have those sorts of attitudes and goals, i'm like well to each their own- which has became my attitude for a lot of things because what works for one person doesn't work for someone else in lots of situations!! David and I have had the goal to eat better /workout/loose weight for quite some time but it is very slow going for us... A lot of times I don't think it is so much of what we eat but the quanity of it /the not working out part! However, if you have noticed I have done little things to improve upon what we are eating and or what I am cooking with like the algae oil I reviewed and the low sodium and unsalted for broths- and even using my instant pot for most … [Read more...]
Early to bed- still late to rise for me- even though David had an hour delay!
Holy Wow I went to bed WAY too early last night but I actually slept for the most of the night- except when I heard some crazy noise that sounded like glass breaking about 2 a/m but never could figure out what it was- I had thought Sam had got into something again because he was in destroy mode all day yesterday it seemed- I mean he was in the hall closet 2 shelves up asleep, and then he got in the extra room twice and tore up all the stuff on my chinese table so.. but he was asleep at the foot of the bed and of course Marley was asleep beside of me. I think maybe I had a weird dream and woke up when something went crazy in it, like glass breaking. Let me put it to you this way I haven't found anything broke yet so... I had wanted to read 30 more minutes- We had went to bed about 9ish and I was watching AW - well David fell asleep during it and when it was over I read for a few minutes. I had stuck my foot under his leg though and it had started to go numb so I Had to move it...and … [Read more...]
