Ticks in my living room now, R U kidding me!

Photobucket

So last week I posted about my dog having a tick for the first time and today m y living room had one for the first time.

We sprayed the backyard last week and today I walked in the living room and saw a little brown bug and stepped on it and that stupid thing was still alive. I then bent over to look at it and the little buggies head perched up to look at me back and BAM, it was a
 “TICK!” no wonder it would not squish.

Tick’s are so ridiculously creepy, that thing is gone forever now, thank goodness to isopropryl (sp?) alcohol! I checked the dog and the kids and myself and it least we are tick free. Now I can’t help but scratch all stinking day as I feel I have ticks crawling all over me. I hate that feeling!

In my future house I will NOT have trees and bushes. If we want shade we are buying a huge tent to perch up in the backyard. Again…I will NOT have anymore trees or bushes for bees and tick’s and bag worms to live in.

GEEZ this is frustrating and I can’t quit feeling all “heebie jeebied” now. Gross!

Hope you are having a bug free day!

I just registered to be a bone marrow donor!


I just had to share as this is awesome! Everyone always says “I wish there was something more I could do.” Well, if you have said it, and you meant it, than can I ask you to check out this website and get your name on the registry?
http://www.facebook.com/l/2AQCPDwX6/www.dkmsamericas.org/about We could all save a life and how cool would that be. It’s only a 2-3 hour procedure, not even a big deal.

I just registered and I hope you do too! Registering is free and no one gets paid for you signing up. the people that benefit are the patients that would die without a donor.

Happy Health to all!

Love has…NO BUTS!

Photobucket
Something we have started in our house over the last year is taking the “but” out. Let me explain.

You know when you are upset at someone and you say “I love you but…?” The but, to me, should not be part of any statement where love is involved. How about, “I love you very much, and am a little frustrated with you because you are not…” Take the “but” out, because love does not have a but, in my opinion.

My daughter has finally gotten used to this and she will catch me when I slip and say it to. I have also been trying very hard to start out with a positive before I say a negative. I do not get it all the time, but I get better every day. I like to start with, “I love you,” or “You are so smart,” You are so beautiful.” You get the point. Then I lose the “but” and try to reword it another way.

When it comes to me loving my family, there is never a but!

Have a good one!

Blogging can be come and obsessive disease!

I have found that the more I sit at the computer, the more I sit at the computer. I find that I have less and less time during the day to get things done as I find myself making excuses to “just do one more thing.”

I was talking to my blogging BFF Terry at My Journey with Candida and she said “it is kind of like a sickness and I think I am sick.” I totally agree with her, it can become a disease and an addiction and even though I love blogging etc, enough has to be enough.
Today is the day I sit down with my daughter and make a chore chart and a schedule for the both of us.
This morning I got up at 6am and went on a 60 minute walk with the dog and my friend Janet. Then I came home, made breakfast and got the kids ready for a little bike ride around our block. I took the dog again, my daughter rode her bike and my son got pulled in the wagon. I tried to walk him but the poor boy kept tripping and after his second scraped knee we came home and got the wagon.

Now we are home, in the hot humid weather, and here I sit. I will not sit longer than this post as I need to get a schedule done.

How many other bloggers have found themselves sitting longer and longer at the computer. How many of you have had to make a schedule to keep you sane and on track?

Have a great day and I will take a picture of our completed works later today or tomorrow.

Peace!

Starting to coupon but it’s hard for healthy food!

I am not an extreme couponer (not sure if that is even a real word, but you know what I mean) by any means. The biggest reason is that most food you coupon for is not healthy and I refuse to eat it. I have been trying to cut out more for toiletries etc. and am finding that coupons.com is definitely my favorite. I don’t buy the whole newspaper thing, I don’t read it. Not reading the paper is part of my mental health journey. I am tyring to keep the negative out so I don’t read or listen to the news much.


So coupons.com is definitely coming one of my favorite sites.
I did find a coupon to day for nature valley granola bars and I LOVE those! I also look for diaper coupons in between my Amazon shipments when I run out.

If you ever get bored and want to search coupons.com feel free to do some right from here, I have added the link for you. Some of these you can even double up on them and save twice as much!

I found a couple more that I have printed while writing this too!
Yummy free chips!

OK so these are not that healthy but I do love the chips and queso from Chile’s so I had to share! We all deserve a “cheat” day every now and then!


Enjoy!

Trying Shakeology for the First Time

Shakeology! Pictures, Images and Photos

So I decided that it was about time I tried Shakeology. You have heard all the hype and I wanted to know first hand if it was as good as it says.

First of all you cannot compare this to a protein drink. I did for a long time but until you actually read all the ingredients, don’t compare it to a protein drink because it is a lot more. Link to the ingredients.

Did I LOVE it? Well not all of it. I took a video of myself trying the Green berry and Chocolate for the very first time and no I did not love it all.

Check out my Youtube video and let me know what you think. I have posted the video here so you can find it easily. I will be adding more Youtube videos so subscribe to my channel if you would like!

So I will continue to get the Chocolate but not the Green berry. I can’t wait to try the new Tropical flavor that is coming out sometime this year! I will video that one too!

I am also giving away a FREE sample of Chocolate Shakeology and I have a tab on my blog but if you want to see from here, here is the link.
If anyone else has tried it please let me know your thoughts. If you ever want to try it I hope you will come back to my website for your future purchases!

Have a great day!

Peace!
