I recently got the chance to join Purex in their Purex Insiders program. I know that you've probably noticed my badge over on the sidebar for quiet some time now :) I am pretty proud of it! What the program is , is a way for bloggers & other social media active people to get the word out about the latest purex products!Pretty neat huh? I was a little late signing up so when I got my first product: Purex Complete Crystals Softner it was already out in the stores!  It was released at Walmart on December 28 2010 I believe,and is scheduled to be in other stores in January of this year. Purex Complete Crystals are 92% natural, which I really like because I have mentioned before I have very sensitive skin, and usually the more natural things are the less chance of a reaction that I seem to have. Also, Natural is just the way to go..who wants all those nasty chemicals getting into your clothes/skin/etc So how do you use these innovative little crystals? They sure aren't like … [Read more...]

I have to say that when it comes to a computer mouse, I cannot stand laptop ones. They annoy me to no end. I always keep a regular one on hand…even though the one on the DV4 that I have doesn’t really get on my nerves all that bad. I almost cut my middle finger off in an electric butter churn when I was 3 (I was “helping” my mom). So my finger can sometimes be VERY sensitive when using a touch pad, and sometimes it even hurts! I recently got the chance from  Smartfish to review their Smartfish Ergomotion Laser Mouse. I was really excited from the get go because of the whole wireless factor, plus it just seemed like a great concept! I am IN LOVE with this mouse! It was one of those love at first sight things. It is hands down the best mouse I have ever had the pleasure of having my hands on! I mean if I could get away with writing you a one word review it would be “awesome” lol. I don’t think that’s what they were looking for though, so I’ll write you a little bit more of a … [Read more...]

In the new year, many people have goals & resolutions to get into shape and to loose weight! Being a skinny gal most of my life, I haven't really ever been a person with this sort of ambition. However after gaining about 30ish lbs over the last couple of years, I have decided it might be time to do something about it. Now, don't get me wrong I don't want to be a "twig" or whatever. It isn't so much as how much I weigh,but all of the weight is right in my stomach. I kid you not when I tell you that I have FAT ROLLS. It isn't any wonder my back hurts & I can't find anything that fits anymore. One thing that I HATE doing is weighing myself. I think the last time that I weighed myself was when we had Shadow & were living with my parents. That would mean..Summer of 2009! I wanted to know how much Shadow weighed so I weighed myself first so I could hold him and subtract the extra. He weighed 9lbs i believe and I weighed 133. A couple of weeks ago I got the opportunity to … [Read more...]

I absolutely ADORED the Halloween Pack that I got to review from Python Printable Games! I have all of those babies printed out and put in a notebook for future use :D(with fancy page protectors, none the less lol) Recently, I got the chance to review their Christmas Game Mega Pack which includes 70 Printable Christmas Games! I swear these Packs include everything under the sun, and there is something for every age group too.You have movie trivia, those neat little directional games(those cute little right left games)mad libs,scavenger hunts,the works. One of my favorites is the charlie brownchristmas trivia one ! I absolutely ADORE that charlie brown christmas movie (I am going to have to go get out my dvd and watch it soon; I can't wait for it to be on t.v or i'll forget to watch it one lol) I like how the games like that one come with separate answer sheets, that way you can actually hand out the game to someone and they can't cheat! :) A really nice thing about this … [Read more...]

My Love for reviews & my love for books. They make a great partnership :) Thanks to Hachette Publishers,I recently got the chance to review a book called Simple Times: Crafts For Poor People by Amy Sedaris.Now, I have to admit that at first I thought this was going to be a serious book about different crafts that you can make on a budget, which it is. However, It is more for comical purposes instead of practical purposes I guess is how to say it. I did however enjoy it! From the book inside book cover you could get a good feel for what the book was going to be like (and that is the way that it should be lol) You also get your first "craft" idea which is to make a hat out of the book jacket ha ha! There are around 300 pages of ideas,hints and tips,etc that will keep you very entertained! There are even recipies (serious ones). The pictures are awesome and at times cute, and times maybe a little..shocking? I guess would be the correct word for them! One of the funniest crafts … [Read more...]
