Christmas Shopping

I’ve started shopping for Christmas! It’s my favorite time of the year- and I always spending much more money than I should to get people the perfect present. It’s amazing the stuff you can find on the internet.  And that makes shopping for my mom super easy because she refuses to use the internet!  So,…

Game On: Day 9!

I’ve made it this far! I haven’t had sugar…I haven’t killed anyone…and I’m starting to loose weight! The hardest still for me is food.  That is a daily challenge, but it is getting easier. I’m finding the team portion is fun.  I learning lots about everyone playing the game…and now so many more people are…

Once upon a TV time, there was a talk-show called “Rosie.”  I loved the show! I taped it everyday on the VCR and would make a mix-tape of the funniest segments, songs, clips, etc. Yes, I’ve always been a huge dork. One of my favorite songs she ever did was a parody of some Miss…

I Hate Halloween

I know  some people LIVE for this time of year…I am not one of those people. I don’t like dressing up.  Don’t like spending money on something I’m going to wear once…don’t like spending money on kids costumes they are going to grow out of soon…. Plus- costumes are just so cheap! They rip after…

Game On Diet: Week 3

It’s day 3 of the Game On Diet and I’m still alive! So far, so good!!  Here’s my problem with any diet/excercise.  I’m kind-of into instant gratification.  Ok, not kind of…totally!  The whole diet/exercise regime is just too slow with results! I know I’ll see them, I just don’t have the patience! Exercise:  Doing great…

Random Blog: Jackhole of the Week

Among the list of my pet peeves…people who park blocking sidewalks. It is actually ILLEGAL in many parts, including where I live, to block a sidewalk. Yet people do it every, single day…over and over again. Here’s the problem, I enjoy bike riding with my kids around our neighborhood.  Everyday there is at least one…

Game On Diet: Day 1!

I’ve survived Day ONE! This is going to be an interesting game! It’s Salt-N-Pepa vs. That’s What She Said….and it’s truly GAME ON! I think out of all the point areas- I’m going to have the hardest time with food. Water was easy- although I peed, what felt like, every ten minutes! Exercise is great-…

Game On!

“Almost all of us struggle with our bodies,  no matter what our size.  The game is not only about getting fit, it’s about getting healthy….” I’ve been exercising, trying to eat right and still haven’t seen many results….it’s annoying and frustrating. But I may have finally found something that sounds like it could work…and it…
