Over scheduling can hurt relationships

MS Word Clipart

Something I have had a real hard time learning, and still am learning, is that over scheduling yourself to the point that you cannot keep up with your life is not a selfless act but really a selfish act. That may sound harsh, but it is my belief. Let me explain… Continue reading

Generic paper towels versus Viva

MS Word Clipart

MS Word Clipart

Let’s just say that I, as many others, try to save money at the store. I do by a lot of generic things and today I decided I would test the paper towels I have been buying.

I have two kinds of paper towels in my house. I have Viva Paper towels and a generic grocery brand. I have the Viva for smoothing out my butter cream cakes. The generic I buy for every day use. However, I think I am changing my tune on the generic towels.

I did my own experiment today. Continue reading

Dance Mom’s giving us a bad name!

showposter

Most of you have probably heard of the show Dance Mom’s. I have danced for over 30-years and to be honest, it took me until season 2 to know that this show was out there. Being a “Dance Mom” I figured…”awesome…I will watch it!” Well let’s say I TRIED to watch it, but, it  gave us dance Mom’s a bad rap!

I could not believe how awful and horrible those Mom’s AND the teacher are. Holy cow! Honestly, what Mom, with a real brain would allow their kids to be put into that situation? What parent would stand for that kind of environment? I know the reason… Continue reading

Is Social Media sending you Negative Karma?

fb_icon_325x325

I love social media, to a point. When Facebook first become popular it was so cool and fun to find people you haven’t seen in years and share your life with them. However, in my opinion, social media, Facebook especially is turning to a negative battle field and I hate it! Actually it may even be a better to title this blog post…”Facebook for Bullies!”

It is nice that everyone has different opinions. If we all had the same opinions and views then this world would be boring and we would not develop new views, ideas, and even technology as we do. That is the nice thing about America, is we get to have our own opinion. However Facebook and other social media has turned into a Continue reading

Pay It Forward Friday!

Pay it forward pic

You have heard the hype lately of people paying it forward? Well, I guess hype may be the wrong word. I think it is a great idea especially now that our country is in such turmoil and people need help!

I have decided to try and start a new Friday trend. I may be the only one doing this trend, but hope to bleed out into the world and have Friday be a weekly pay-it-forward day. You don’t even have to spend any money to pay-it-forward. You just have to give of your heart, time, or whatever you can afford to do.

Here are some examples of things that I have done or will start doing…this list will grow and I would love you to add to it too!http://www.fitafterbabies.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif Continue reading

WTFriday…Going green?!

WTFriday imageYou would think with all the “green” talk these days that people would take into account that their trash throwing should be a thing of the past…but NO!

I have picked up so much trash over the past few weeks. When I walk with the kids, I will pick up trash, put it in the stroller, and then throw it away. It has been ridiculous how much trash I pass within a 1.7 mile walk! Oh and the biggest one…those damn Continue reading

Surgery put workouts on hold…yuck!

DSC00829I haven’t posted about my 40-workouts for awhile and I still have about half the stack left. Reason is that I had to have surgery a couple months ago and was not able to workout for quite a while. Yuck…this has put on a bit of weight, but I get to start working out again Continue reading

Does sending in FASFA cost?

MS Word Clipart

MS Word Clipart

I have been kicking around the idea of whether or not I want to go back to school. I am on the fence about it, but figured I might as well feel out my FASFA (student loan paperwork) just in case I decided to go.

I learned something today and I wanted to share before anyone else gets, or almost gets roped into PAYING to send in their FASFA!http://btrbb.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gifI know for a fact that I have NEVER paid for FASFA in the past. I have a Master’s degree so I have probably filled out those forms about a dozen times. Heck…I filled them out before the Internet came to be.

I went to FASFA.com and filled it all out and BAM…they wanted around Continue reading
