I hope you are all having a fabulous 2015! My new year started off on an amazing note. I hope that means this year has nothing but great things ahead! Typically, our New Year’s consists of my husband working and me at my in-laws watching their neighbors blow up anything they can find. But that’s…
It’s back to school time! There’s a part of me that’s excited about school. My kids have had enough summer fun! At the same time, I’m dreading the homework, school supply shopping and all the after-school activities that are just around the corner. I was recently asked to participate in a blogger event to do…
The Book Warehouse is a little independent bookstore in Oviedo that is sadly closing. Tomorrow (Thursday) is their LAST DAY and right now all books are $1. ALL BOOKS ARE $1. It’s crazy, because there are some great books! My kids aren’t big readers. But I tell you, tell them they can have anything in…
It’s not often the Mr. and I get a true date night. But once I saw this event pop I, I figured it was at least our chance to get out and try some new things! Fl Blog Con organized the event and it’s a great organization if you are a blogger, want to be…

But I wanted to celebrate today with some fun facts about EPCOT. • Epcot was opened 1st October 1982 after three years of construction. • The pavements at Epcot…
You can’t go to Disney, at least with me, and not do some shopping. It’s just not right. There are some great new items this year to explore at the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival. Check out the latest from Disney…. (I’m really excited about the beer-themed merchandise this year!)
So I’ve been on this “get in shape” kick for about 3 years now, with little success. The problem always seems to be about time. I just don’t have enough of it. Here’s the thing, I’m a routine person. If I can get into a routine, then I’m good. But if something disrupts that routine…
So I’m thinking of buying a new bike. I have a great, wonderful, awesome Specialized bike already: And I do love this bike! But I’m looking for a road bike. I want to go faster. I want to enter some bike events, and just don’t think I’ll fit in with my big fat tires. So…
