I haven't had a lot of good luck when it comes to something to track my walking like a fitness tracker! I have had 2 in the past- one I lost the first day I had it out- we had went walking on the trail when we lived in town and I had it clipped on my shoe- and somewhere along the way it came off. David , His Dad and I walked the trail again and never found it. Then after we got home I was still upset so we went back and ran into David's dad looking again! Needless to say it never turned up! I guess the second was not really a case of having bad luck but it cost a lot of money and I felt guilty having it on the credit card at the time, plus it got a bit finicky with charging and even with tracking me so I just ended up taking it back! I really enjoyed it while I had it though- Marley and I were walking around here at the apartments about twice a day for a while! I like being able to have a way to track my steps and see my distance and all that- it makes you feel like yes, … [Read more...]
Happy REAL thanksgiving from Me & Mine to You & Yours
Of course I am not celebrating Thanksgiving with my family until Saturday (if I don't wind up changing my mind and it is likely to happen) However I Made David and I our own little thanksgiving-ish meal. Of course I don't eat turkey because I hate it, and good lord I can't even imagine trying to make one even if I did like it! I made some Chicken & Stuffing Casserole (with stove top- don't want anyone having to fake scurvy like the pilgrim on the commercial!) Mashed potatoes and some Green Beans! I even had a glass of my moms home made wine-she had held out me this last bottle I got has been the best of all the ones she has made so far! No one in Davids family even bothered to invite him/us to anything going on which is kinda predictable but kind crappy at the same time. They have called now as I am writing this after the fact but David was in the shower and they left a voicemail so .. but still I kinda expect these things. I am going to try to write up some reviews this … [Read more...]
Why oh why am I even up?
Well I did manage to go to bed early- I watched a little bit of Another World via my ipod/youtube/apple tv and by 11 I was like o.k. i'm going to sleep but.. at 6 this morning David was up swearing the bed is god awful and he can't sleep and his back hurts and what not so since I am not likely to go back to sleep I just decided to get up and I will def. be taking a nap later. I need to go over to my moms this evening for a few things so I might just see if she can do dinner for us and we go over there about 5 or so.. I know she and my dad are leaving in the morning to go up to my grandmas - it really sucks the way thanksgiving is laying out this year- but I think we already knew I felt that way. I guess it might be a good thing I don't have my reviews wrote because that will give me something to do on actual thanksgiving day? EH I am so tired I can't stand myself right now and my head is killing me but I am trying to make it until at least 1 before I go crash. ..but good grief … [Read more...]
Flooded Car Floorboard? Of course..
Hey Everyone well I am trying my best to finish up 3 reviews but.. heaven help me the writing bug isn't really with me! I am finally getting 2 of the 3 to flow- one more than the other and phew- hopefully I will get at least 1 of them churned out here in a bit! I hate writers block. It isn't that I don't have anything to say about the stuff, it just isn't coming out the right way. Eh. I had one of them almost wrote on Saturday and hated it so I deleted it and started over- and I had planned to try yesterday but- that obviously didn't happen either. Oh well.. it isn't like I don't have plenty of time- so it will happen when it happens :) We have some sort of leak in the car in the drivers floorboard and we don't know what it is- and basically david had to tear the carpet out so we don't end up with mold. We think it might be the windshield but that will cost $100 for our deductible and we don't really have that right now. I do have some money that my mom is holding on to for me … [Read more...]
NaBloPoMo Prompts #9 November 2015-What is the first thing you do every single day (I mean, after you hit the snooze button)? When did that step in your routine begin? #NaBloPoMo
I am writing along with these prompts for NABLOPOMO and you can find out more about them if you want by clicking the image above! The first thing I do is usually get up come into the kitchen and check Marley's food bowl, put a cup of water in the microwave for my coffee, walk over to the patio door and open the shades,then go check on sam's bowl and put it up on the counter in the extra bathroom and then I give them food if they need it! See it is all about the fur babes around here, and coffee in the mornings :) After that it is finding what I am going to watch on tv or whatever while I am doing whatever it is I am doing that day, I grab the computer and sit down and start checking my email and facebook and all of that good thing. Some mornings I grab something to snack on, and some mornings I might be going somewhere with my mom so I take marley out and put on "real clothes" :) This has well been my routine in some format for many years, but especially since we moved here … [Read more...]
I am getting good at forgetting to name my posts!
Hey Everyone Don't be alarmed my being up early on a Saturday and all lol. I just went to bed early as could be last night so - yeah. I did manage to get a review up yesterday evening - I kinda had figured yesterday was a no go but I sat down right about 5 and started writing and next thing I know BAM it was ready :) now if I can get 3 more done and then I Have 3 more coming.. and I am actually already scheduling stuff into the new year wahoo- that way things don't die down and then when the winter blues come- if they come- which is likely I will be able to have things to do and all of that good thing :) Pretty well just what is here and the couple things coming in for gift guide- everything else is being moved to the early part of next year. There are a couple things that might end up worked in if I get yes' on them but I think it is time to wind down on that note because I don't want December to be overwhelming.. then again I don't want to be bored so we will see how it goes … [Read more...]
