Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

I have been so awful about getting in a run lately since I got since. I only get in about 1 run a week now. Sometimes its only a walk, but we have a new addition to the family that will help get us all in shape as soon as we can find a collar that won't slip off the neck.

I will post pictures of this delightful creature as soon as I can.

Wednesday, December 1, 2010

Monday was errand day. OMG! I thought I was going to need a nap after taking almost a month off from running and lifting weights. I sufferred. I just went to bed early.

Tuesday was strollerize boot camp. Gotta love the trainer. She really worked me at a pace that didn't have me wheezing or collapsing. I still got a good work out int.

Wednesday I stayed making Christmas Gifts. I planned on walking down and picking up the kiddos from school. Though, I ran out of time with having to deliver a few Christmas gifts early. I am still making loads of stuff. I am running out of time.

Thursday I took the day off from crafting. I spent walking around and play monster with my friend Robyn's kiddos at an outlet mall. She was recognized as the local hero for her 24 hour run on the tredmill. I walked 2miles after that to pick up my kiddos and bring them home. I made butternut squash soup for hte first time ever. You need lots of s quash to make thick like the resturant versions of it.

Eatting is healthy other than chips.

Sickness in the family

Sickness in the family has prevented me from posting as much as I like.

Monday, November 15, 2010

MOnday Day 58- Friday Day 63

Monday

Calories: 3/4 of a navel orange, 1/3 of cup of banana nut cheerios, lentil sauce with rice, and watered down koolaid, 1 big cup of coffee with fat free cool whip for flavor, 8 oz of coke, bannana smoothie, black bean tacos and kool aide

Excerise: none

This past weekend was rough emotionally for me. I have serve allergies. Not only did they hit full swing, along with finanical stresses with a spouse. No one lost a job just bills in general. Yes, we have always had a problem communication about the real cost of bills. Unfortunately, it usually takes a melt down on both parties part for each one to be heard and something to done about it. So, with that said, those that have my cell number know I have a new cell number, and other items were either cut down to size or cancelled all together.

Thank you, t-mobile for finally letting us out of a contract with you. Since, we didn't have cell service at our location. Thank you for finally doing right by your customer of three years. Since the original mistake was made by an employee not us. *note to all readers t-mobile has the best family packages for phones though if you live near mountains check all areas for service received before getting with them. I will never complain about the bill with t-mobile only the ability to have service. ***

Tuesday: I threw up last night. Apparently, my allergies are totally out of control. I may have more than allergies. Seriously.

So, am miserable.

Wednesday:

No excerise. Food very healthy. not really tracking it. I am just tracking the meds I am on because they are more important. Asthama...I can live without it!!!!

Thursday:

No excerise:

Oatmeal, 8 oz of coke, my meds and my new pal the inhaler..actaully its a pal I went without for almost two years. Though by having it, once the flair up goes away, I only need it before I excerise.

This weekend was awesome. The friend of the individual needing intervention did the best the friend could do on trying to get the individual to see just how far gone the individual is. Kuddos to friend. It scared the friend really bad as to how broke this particular individual is mentally, physically, and spiritually.

I saw a sign this weekend. It totally describes the situation I am currently in.

It says, I'm a badass, your just an ass.

Okay, update on the individual. the individual's boss got the individual and individual's partner a devotional book even dedicated it to the couple. Apparently, its apparent to everyone but the individual.

Saturday, October 2, 2010

Friday Day 35

2 8 oz coke zeros
3 pieces of cheese toast
3 taco bell fresco tacos
a half of a club sandwich and half of a small greek salad a cholocate cookie too

excerise:
60 mins in stollerize
40 mins washing car
2 hours grocery shopping

Good news another friend of the individual that is in a process of a intervention knows that this individual has a problem. This particular friend is in shock about the situation. This friend has agreed now to help in the intervention.

Friday, October 1, 2010

Day 34 Thursday

lifted weights 30 mins every area that I could did it
25 min run for 2.07 mis

lunch orange chicken my friend made
snack salad with carrots and curtons
dinner potato salad with chocolate milk
1 60 oz coke zero
1 6 oz coke zero

News flash the person that is having an intervention backslide to the starting point last night. I was so mad. Mad probably isn't the exact words to describe the me emotions during the event. This particular persons swears up and down that its ears never heard the word stop. I promise you, the participant involved repeatedly said stop. I want to scream and shout, and just shake this particulat individual senseless but it would not accomplish anything. I knew it was going to be tough but it still is frustrating beyond comprehension.

I will be offline the the rest of the week and weekend. We have company coming in. I do hope the company will see that this individual is in need of more intervention.

Thursday, September 30, 2010

Wednesday Day 33

Excerise 2.02 mis in 25 mins
20 mins weight lifting on legs

diet:
egg whites with cheese and turkey bacon
veggie pattie with hummus gravy
16 oz of coke zero
3 16 oz of water
taco salad for dinner with chocolate milk
lentil dip with saltine crackers with 4 oz of plain milk

Note to self and anyone else making healthy stuff. Lentils and flax seeds mixed together and ingested after ingesting salad makes you into a human skunk. Seriously, i could have run my family out of the house not just out of the room. Okay, not funny when it was happening. Looking back at it, it was rather funny considering that normally I don't get gas that bad. I get gas. I pass the cheese or let the frog in the house etc. Not to the extent.

The spiritual intervention is having a positive affect on the person in my life that needs it. The person still needs to seek medical help. Baby steps do pay off everyone!

Please be blessed.
Please bless others.
Harm to none,
Love in return.
Let it rock and roll
on life's stream of fun.

Spiritually, I am good.

Physically, getting better.

Emotionally, numb.

Monday, September 27, 2010

Monday Day 31

Okay, after almost three weeks offline due to my computer being possibly hacked. Its back up and running. Thanks DH! Your the best.

During these past three weeks, I have deeply struggled to stay on track, physically, mentally, and emotinally. I have been attacked in always possible to keep from being positive in all areas of my life. It has been the most difficult time for me. Those nearest and dearest know the situations 411 that I am not at liberty to post. Though let's say the cat is out of the bag per say on the situation. Its in the intervention stage for the person who is needing it the most. Its one step at a time, one day at a time, and one prayer at a time. Needless, to say, the heart is much littler, the mind is less blogged down, and I'm following a plan of action thanks to my friends.

I'd like to thank all my friends from the bottom of my heart for being here with me. I could not have gotten through this past month without you. No, I am not stopping this blog. I think its important to those that wish to get healthy, stay healthy, and help others be healthy.

Physically, I have been challenging myself to run 2.10 to 2.50 mis five days a week. I, also, challenged myself to lift weights at four times week. I did that expect for last week. Last week was roller coaster ride, of one that is not made of fun, dreams, and screams. Well, the screams were silent not the thrilling kind either.

I have been struggling wiht eatting healthy too. We have been doing a lot of take out or drive through even though, I choose the lower calorie menu it still has something in it that makes my gall bladder riot like someone's civil rights are being violated. Bad pun, I know just hear me out. They, the right of our body's organs are being violated when we ingest stuff that isn't good for us.

I have been doing much better. I have made a creamy lentil dip for saltine crackers. i made a chick peas sauce for meat or rice. Thanks to my dear friend Robyn. She gave me her food processor that she wasn't using at all. I have to say a big thanks to her because it is a blessing. She also gave me some food that she was no longer going to eat that was extremely healthy. The kiddos discovered it, and they love it. Robyn, I really do believe that your idea is something we should run with. You know what it is girl.

I got the lastest issue of health magazine. They have some awesome articles and recipes that I will be sharing with you in the next couple of weeks.

my menu for the day:
water with koolaide 2 (16 oz)
reg coke (16 oz)
Shell pasta with red garden sauce
2 16 oz of water down sweet tea
lean meat cooked in the oven with italian dumplings topped with seasonsing and cheese, and blackeyed peas (the food not the group)

20 minutes lifting arm weights
25 min run/walk 2.07 mis

Spiritually I am reconnecting not with myself though, I was already doing that with spiritual boot camp, with others spiritually.

Please be blessed.
Please bless others.
Harm to none,
Love in return.
Let it rock and roll
on life's stream of fun.

Thursday day 18 & Friday day 19

has been a real challenge the las few days. Besides my computer being hacked by viruses, the car battery died, and we had a very bad in school wiht one of my kids.

I have been eatting healthy. I have been excerising healthy. I have been having to distance myself from certain people in my life right now that are just being way too negative to able to have a relationship that I want to with. It breaks my heart to have to distance myself, its the only way to keep from getting pulled under with them. I feel less stressed by this. I am more relaxed by this. I just wish the same could happen for them.

Wednesday, September 8, 2010

Monday Day 15

Spiritual Boot Camp Challenge- a dear friend Jo Lynne challenged her friends and follwers of her books to do this. I agreed since I am trying to be healthy in all areas.

So, today is day one of the challenge.

Breakfast: dominos pizza wiht coke for caffine
Lunch: toasted sandwiches on wheat bread with swiss cheese and ham. kettle cooked sea salt and pepper chips by lays
Dinner: black bean tacos with cheese, rice, flour tortillas, lettuce, and taco bell packet sauce

Lemon water is a part of my day. To the delight of my kids, to find a picther in the fridge.
Water in general has always be a part of my diet.
My detox choice is cranberry juice one cup a day.

Excerise: Pushing a chart with 10 lbs of water in it, plus 12 pks of coke, and groceries in it. Let me tell you its a work out in itself.

Meditating: Hanging out at the pool on the last offical weekend of summer.

Spiritually: Let's just I am catching some of it on paper for my journal other things come so fast at me that I can't even write them down. I pressume that I am not suppose to write it at the point but enjoy the moment.

Passion: let's just say, I am extremely pleased to be able to say its back to a degree.

Goddess wear: I will be making myself a fabric flower head band to wear and a new nightgown because I deserve it. I am a goddess, a queen, and special person to my family. I should treat myself in that manner.

I will be adding my amthyst stone to my alread precious cross necklace I don't take off. I have a feeling that I need all the protection from negativity I can get since my goal is to be more postive about myself.

Lazy Weekend..Carrot Cake Cookies

My house is a mess, and i don't care.

My works are missing, and I don't care. I do but its nice to just lay around.

Here's a healthy sweet recipe for you.I haven't made this yet. It sure does sound yummy.

Carrott Cake Cookies
2 cups quick or old fashioned oats
1 1/2 all purpose flour or self rising flour
1 tsp baking soda (skip if using self rising flour)
1 tsp salt (skip if using self rising flour)
4 Tbs Promise Buttery Spread
2 Neufchatel or 1/3 less fat cream cheese, softened
1 1/4 firmly packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1/3 cup lowfat vanilla yogart
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup raisans
1/2 cup shredded carrot (about 1 large carrot)

1. Combine oats, flour, baking soda, and salt in medium bowl; set aside.

2. Beat Promise buttery spread, cream cheese, and brown sugar in large bowl with electric mixer until creamy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg, yogart, and vanilla until blended. Gradually beat in oat mixture just until blended. Stir in raisans and carrot.

3. Turn dough onto wax paper and form into four 7-in long logs. Wrap tightly and freeze 2 hours or until firm.

4. preheat oven 375. For 2 servings, slive off four 1 inch rounds from log, then refresh remaining dough until ready to bake. Arrange frozen cookie slices on baking sheet. Let stand 10 minutes. Bake 8 minutes until edges are golden and centers are set. Cool 2 minutes on wire rack; removie from sheet and cool completely.

From a cook book food in a grocery store called Safeway this summer.

Wednesday-total slacker

AFter a night of hardly sleeping because DH was on site working and still is for the second night in a row. I have a headache, again. I have not motivation. I have not wanting to go do anything. I have been eatting healthy. We went to the pool to day in our subdivision. They have one of the old fashion scales with weights and such. So, I decided to weigh myself. The scale and I are never friends. This scale said I was 146, the wii fit said I 156 to 166 depending on the week it wants to work. Go figure.

cleaning for two hours

Phew the weekends over

Okay food intake for the weekend, so, much healthy that I forgot to keep track. No seriously, I mean it.

Excerise, well Saturday we drove up to Prescott. We walked around the square, went to costcos, Sam's Club, Kmart, Khol's, and a few others stores. A total of 6 hours of moving. I crashed and burned. Not to mention the change in altitude, and the humidity we are having played havoc with my hears and head. I spent Saturday night and sunday doped up until about 2 pm then the headache came right back.

I am about ready to just have a word fight wiht Dh. Yes, he is eatting much better than he was. I am the best shape of my life. yes, I have a muffin top. Let me explain about my muffin top, three full term pregancies, life saving surgery through some very important adnomibal muscles left my stomach scarred and stretched to the point, I will always have a muffintop to an extent. Am I happy about that ...NO BUT HELL NO. Can I live with it? Yes by heaven's grace, I can. Do I like people talking about it and trying to make themselves feel better about themselves. NO. Do I pick on them when they have a problem area. NO. I say come work out with me. I will do the excerises with you. Do they do it. NO.

I have regained lost butt muscles to where my hips look slightly slimmer and my butt a little firmer. You know the dimples you had as kid on the side of your butts that disappear with kids and age. Mine have come back thank you very much. If he would simply start again with the wii fit, I know he could seriously drop some pounds.

thursday calories, minutes, and stres

calories:

snack none
dinner lasanga wiht wheat garlic toast
candy for desert

minutes..cleaning, running errands-40 minutes

Stress, my dh is trying so hard that its not even funny. He's stressed at work, he's stressed at home supposed by the lack of cleaning we do per day. Excuse me, have you seen teh kids chore charts, or extra stars for extra cleaning they have done ...knock knock any one home. What gets him is little stuff that gets looked over. Box top that was thrown in a window sill or donation forgotten to be taken to the donation bin at the kids school, etc. I'm only one person not a God with ultimate powers, the kids are kids, and your cranky from dieting ...get it over it. Mountains out of mole hills are never good. They should be let go.

Now, we had planned on heading to chompies for jewish sliders but dh didn't get home in time for dinner. he is the one that requested more healthy sandwiches. So, originally I made grilled cheese sandwiches but added meat to his and the youngest. I hadn't planned on cooking at all. I had no meat thawed to cook anything. Needless, to say most stuff I normally get he took off the list grocery list then the other stuff he says is weird and won't eat. Its crazy! I told about an old southern reciped that we could take the sausage out of. His reply was why do you do weird stuff. Why can't you cook normal stuff? Excuse me okra dishes are normal for the southerns. ARGGGG!!!

okay so here it is, Dh called saying he got back from his work trip early than expected. He need lunch. he came home to eat lunch with us. It was nice. Though we debted taking advantage of the subway customer appreciation special this month. While debting his phone goes off, its work. Since it wasn't 5 and technically they said he could finish his day at home in the home office, he had to answer the phone. It took so long that the kids were too hungery to make the short trip to subway for sandwiches...

Weekend Calories/Minutes the saga of my DH's turn from the Darkside

Weekend Minutes:
Saturday 120 minutes running and weight lifting
21/2 hours window shopping
2 hours grocery shopping

Calories:
breakfast potato soup wiht 8 oz of coke
lots of water
gold fish crackers
lunch paradise bakery you choose cafe..1/2 a sandwich with a small salad zero coke 2x and a chocolate chip cookie
dinner sweet tea, fresco burrito and soft taco from taco bell
6 oz coke
16 oz of water
bites of cantalope

diet production of the day:
Okay while headed to go window shopping and return the shaun white snowboarding game. we were going to go out to eat. The kids said, buffalo wild wings. I said, wait a second hon. You got sick from rich food yesterday. Maybe, you should try somehting less rich. How about paradise bakery, you get your salad delux and a 1/2 sandwhich. Its perfect portion too. We go, not only do we get a great lunch but due to their rewards program which we had been signed up for, we got a free lunch. So, instead of paying $30.00 for a family of four to eat out, we paid $20.00.
I am so happy my Dh listened to me about food choices this time.

sunday
minutes: 1 hr of stairs at the baseball game
16oz of coke
calories: breakfast healthy cereal with skim milk
lunch: two hot dogs with onions, mustard, and ketchup, pink lemonade 2 x, diet pepsi (yucko), 1 bag of peanuts, 2 1/2 bags of lays barbeque chips, three small waters
dinner: small salad with lettuce cucumbers, tomtatoes; sweet tea 3 x, sandwich on wheat with pickle and meat
So today wasn't so great with healthy eatting at the baseball game. I am not surprised. Though, my Dh has switched from white to wheat bread. How many years have I waited for my dh to do this? Um, my entire marriage. Almost had an O moment just hearing my DH say, "Get wheat bread from now on". Then he has been eatting breakfast every morning. My Dh who doesn't eat breakfast. Yes, folks my dh is eatting breakfast. He has made sure that the kids stop their boredom eatting as well too. Yes, folks this I'm hungery but grabbing for unhealthy food is over at our house offically for I don't know how long. I just hope his parents help keep him on track when we go home for a visit.

Did I mention he switched from regular coke to coke zero. Yup. He said he still prefers regular coke but coke zero is better for him.

Friday Minutes Calories..and the beginning of our journey with my DH

Calories:
cereal with milk
lots of water
lunch mini ravoliis 8 oz of coke
4 oz of coke
tea, pasta with alfredo sauce, spinach, and mushrooms

Minutes:
60 minutes in strollerize, 40 minutes school shopping

Okay, so, yesterday was teh big day for us to be healthy with my Dh. The phone rings, my kiddo answers it.

kiddo: Hi Daddy!

DH: Hi kiddo! Whatcha ya doin?

kiddo: playing with play doh.

dh: that sounds fun

kiddo: yeah it is. Mommy is making me some shorts right now

dh: that's cool.

Kiddo: when you comin' home

dh: on my way. wanted to know what you wanted for dinner?

kiddo: pizza

dh: sounds good

kiddo: is that okay for you to eat?

dh: yeah once in awhile it is..

mean while i am listening just silently shaking my head knowing this is the stubbling block I knew was coming. Thank goodness once he got home. Both kiddos acted so bad in the card he refused to order pizza. Instead we had past with alfredo sauce, spinach, and mushrooms.

He also relieved that he act mexican today because it was client paying for it. He admitted that he couldn't handle it. He got sick when he got back to the office. he said it was the strangest thing too. He has never gotten sick from mexican. I think his body is just had it with all junk food. Mexican fixed right can be very healthy but what was served probably wasn't that healthy.

Okay here's the deal, I have been looking for a job for sometime now. A lot of places don't give descriptions of jobs or what hours of work are expected. They now give it during an interview. Yup, totally unprofessional. I have had several job leads that I am following up on. My Dh found out about them. He was like how come you didn't tell me you were applying for jobs. I replied that I hadn't heard back from anything. The only way to inquire is to apply for the jobs. When something serious passes by, I will tell you. He goes off on some mean word tanturm about me never talking to him about what I am doing and How I never consider the kids. That i'm not allowed to get a job until the fall, that he will take away the keys to my van, if I don't talk to him yad yad yad. Yes, this is a form of abuse. I understand it. I also understand my DH more than he gives me credit for. I know he wants to hours of employment, he wants to know pay rate, he wants to know if the kids can come with me if the kids are out of school, can i take the summer off, how do I go about requesting days for said family vacation. If I do not have this information, then there is no hope of even considering the job for me. So, I'd rather be belittled too, than not be actively trying to get a job. Part of the war of words, is that he has ocd, a tooth that needs attention by dentist, and debt he got this family into with two words-credit card. I just went back to sleep and ignored him until I have more information to appease his need for knowledge.

Heathly eatting deals at Wal-mart

Typically, I don't shop their for groceries. The local supermarket branches have been having much better prices plus free carry out with tip. Wal-mart has no carry out but their prices have recently dropped.

Here's the deals that I found.
pink lady apples a bag for $3.00
Lemons $0.25
bell peppers $0.68
bananas $0.44
10 lb bag of potatoes $2.00

Great value brand frozen vegetables if you don't fresh
Brocoli bag $0.98
Carrots n Peas $0.98

Non-whole wheat $0.88 - I prefer whole wheat but my family likes to mix it both.

Small loaves of bread white and wheat $0.88

Oscar meyer meat in round tubs $2.50 a lb. Not bad when the wal-mart brand is $3.00

Oatmeal Fruit cookies by Susan Powter

2 meduim sized bananas
2 egg whites
1 cup pitted and chopped dates (replaced with sunflower kernels)
11/2 rolled oats
1/2 cup raisans (replaced with cranberries)

Preheat Oven 350 degrees

Mash Banans leaving some chunks. Add egg whites and dates, and mix to make sure dates are well coated and seperated.

Mix in rolled oats and raisans. Set aside for 10 minutes. Wipe a cookie sheet with a little oil. Place teaspoonful of dough on cookie sheet, and flatten with the back of the spoon.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned. Cool and remove from pan. Store well covered in refrigator or freezer.

She says this is 88% carbohydrate, 6% fat, 6% protein..

I just love bananas.

Here is my challenge to you..make it your own by putting in the dried fruit or fresh fruit instead of the raisans and dates. Post your alternation here in this post..I will post all your alternations later.

Okay, I know there is a bunch stuff all over the internet but some of her recipes kick tale. She has some excellent points made in her books and backed up by professionals.

Sunday Quotes

Okay, Friday I got complimented on my skin. I don't have the perfect skin. I just know how to hide its imperfections and scars well. I wish people would not look at the outside to determine perfection rather inside just like the saying, "don't judge a book by its cover". The best beauty comes from the heart.

Menu for yesterday:

cheese toast

1 cup of peanuts

soup-enchilda and baked potatoe and house salad with strawberry lemonade from chilis

crackers and 6 oz of coca cola due to an upset stomach

yogart and peanuts for dinner

Basil- an herb we often don't know much about

This is from Southern Living May 2010 it teachs you how to grow the basil. They suggest you can use it to keep flies away. I thought it was interesting because they mention there are six kinds of basil you can grow.





This article is from Health Magazine May 2010 on diy remedies for things. The only thing I can say, is I normally make a tea broth with basil and drink it. I don't just smell it. I add 1 tablespoon or 2 teaspoons of sugar to drink it though.








This article was found in the Lowe's creative ideas for home and garden magazine they send out every two months.
I hope this helps you learn more about basil oops, basil is also known for its spiritual benefits as well. They are love, physic development, and protection.
This is something that is important to our diet.

No real tips for savings this week. Apparently stores don't want us to come shopping...

I'm so soar from yesterdays strollerise class and pulling weeds from the yard. It hurts to breath in because I used stomach muscles I don't typically use. This is good considering that my stomach muscles where damaged from live saving surgery 10 years ago. If trainer of the class keeps this up, I won't have a 12 pack abs but I might get better ton to a close to a 6 pack abs if I really push myself. Though, I have a feeling, I will need to get job by the end of summer.

I have started listening to Nickelback. I heard their last three hit songs. I thought hmm do they have anymore great excerise songs. Oh baby yeah! Needless, to say, I can't play them around the kids. They lyrics are exactly appropiate for them to listen to, however, its great for me. They were probably never written for young kids any ways. I currently am listening to Dark horse though they have three to four albums out currently available through most stores. Can't afford to buy it. Well, quit being a snob, walk your tail down, drive a vechile of transportion to the library for a listen. Knock, knock anyone home?

Wednesday Minutes/Calories

Okay, yesterday was a bad day for me..really bad day. Though I manage to excerise 3 hours to let go of some stress. Though, I thought I had it under control, it came bubbling the flowing out when I lost a $10 bill that was my husband's yesterday. I spent an hour looking for it, and crying for it. I told him I was so sorry. One minute it was sitting in the van and the next minute it was gone. I told I had backed tracked to the places where I went. He said it happens though not a good time to loose the $10 but he understood. What he couldn't understood was why I was crying. I told him it wasn't really the $10 bill but the other stuff dealing with my ex-Dh. He said he understood. He said it wasn't my fault they arent' truthful with me. He also added that he has given us good reason not to trust them. Until they give more information for us to help them we can't. He knows that I am torn up because even though I don't get along at all with my ex-DH I hate it when anything bad happens to anyone even if I don't know them personally. Its my heart that attracted him to me in the first place. That's what makes a good person, because I care.

He was really great last night. He understood that I need some cuddling and holding to make it all bettter. Thanks DH your the best. That's why we are married. YOu know when I really do need you the most.

Well, the fancy dancy ones from wal-mart the kind that make you look good while cleaning but don't hold up to real cleaning. I found I had a hole in the finger tip last night.

Sunday 'Quotes Calories/Minutes

I am going to quote the character John Locke from Season one when he was dealing with Walter the boy that got crashed with a bunch of adults.

Walter: I totally suck at this knife throwing thing.

John: I want to you concentrate on this section of the tree. You see here.

Walter: yes, I aimed for that the last time.

John: Use your mind's eye. Do you know what that means?

Walter: Seeing it in your mind before doing it?

John: Exactly

There is a pause in the scene when Walter closes his eyes and does just that .Then he opens his eyes, throws the knife and hits the target area of the tree dead one. If you watch the show then you know how the scene ends.

Thus, is our quest to be healthy. We first must want to be that way mentally before we can excute it physically.

Example: Friday I decided I wasn't going to let my allergies keep me from excerising, again this past week. I decided instead of running the 5 k to my excerise class, I would walk it. I walk the excerise route whatever it might be, and walk back home another 5 k. Guess what no matter what I did it. I even did this great big hill I once could run up but now I have trouble with. I walked fast and straight right up. I just kept picturing the top with light post. I got there. Even the instructor was impressed.

I use less water by washing my dishes and they seem cleaner than using my dish washer since my water company provides crappy quality of water.

What's your opinion?

Tuesday Product Review Calories/Minutes

four hours cleaning up my kitchen, den and adult living room...kids totally trashed it.

as for products--I have none. I have not tried any or discovered anything that might be useful other than the new kool-aide fizzle tablets designed for water bottles. They are basically $3.00 for 8 tablets. They only work in 16-20 oz water bottles. My house isn't buying it because are not traveling any where.

I haven't come across any product this week that would be worthy of any type of a review. Unless, you count my vaccum warranty which so far holds to be true. We will find out when DH gets the thing on the way home from work today.

Monday Resturant Reviews Calories/Minutes

No resturant reviews. Only Banquet boxed microwavable meals. To humor my irriatable husband, this weekend, we, again, tried banquet microwaveable meals. To my horror, within in 20 minutes of eatting my pot pies I became serverly nauseated, with dry heaves and painfully cramps. My kids still said they were hungry after eatting their chineses meals from them. I finally had to break down and take my phenagren, go to bed at 5:30 pm at night crying myself to sleep because my DH felt I was over reacting. How do you explain that your stomach felt like a ticking time bomb about to explode causing death and destruction to a man who is so blinded by his own thoughts and emotions right now, you can't.

So, my advice..even if you know that it will please someone else to give something you know will make you sick a second chance. Don't. It's not worth the sickness you will feel later.

Sunday Quote

"Easier said than done, don't take it personaly, etc" These are great for making some one feel better but in all honesty the person who you are saying it to still feels like crap and is probably depressed.

Tuesday Product Review calories/minutes

Okay, I know a lot of people stay away from Suave products. I know I did for a few years. I had repeatedly tried their products but it didn't seem to help my hair. So, when I saw these products at Wal-mart. My eyes popped out, my nose said let smell the scents, and my wallet went cha-ching this really looks like a good deal. After using it for a week, I have to say...I love it. I just wished they had more products like this to use. I think my hair would do awesomely. Is that even a word or a correct spelling? I am not sure at this point. I have to say suave gets my vote on good job.

I have used the other shampoo and conditioners in the product line but if you want to contact the company for your own research, I have listed their web contact information for you.
http://secure.suave.com/contact-us


NOTE***SUAVE IS NOT PAYING ME FOR THIS. I SPENT MY OWN MONEY AND TRIED THE PRODUCT. Though, if suave company is reading this ...I'd love some samples of the others stuff.
Four hours of volunteering at the school walking between rooms, work room, and waiting on the copier machine.

Sunday Quotes...

I really don't have one but author Ellen Schrierber makes some excellent points about rumors and treating people right now matter how they look or act in her Vampire Kisses series. You may not be into the whole paranormal books but this series totally hits the right spot for teaching lessons in humanity.

No really movement this weekend..just recovering from the the cold cooties that Dh brought from work to home.

Saturday Money Saving Tips calories/Minutes

Walgreens, Walgreens, Walgreens yes the national pharmacy chain..watch their ads. They often put items on clearance that save you lots of money. For instance the other night we only spent $3.68 on candy and drinks for hockey night, we got over 9 items. Yesterday, we spent $10.00 but we got three arizona ice teas, three boxes of kleenex and medicine. The regular price would have been $20.00

Tuesday Product Review and Calories/Minutes

Wal-mart stories..why is this a product because it takes everyone working as a team to have a sucessful store with low prices. The prices haven't been low. Their associates in general are not helpful expect at the door greeting. The majority of the associates couldn't be bothered. The stock items such as flips in packaging that makes it difficult to try on,the brands are improving but not stocked well for misses and men, some stores are layed out similar but not identical making it difficult to find items if you travel a distance to find them, they only have certain stores they will ship from warehouse to store for free, and they don't price match all prices. You must look at your ads, and call the stores. Overall, wal-mart is full of itself when they have the lowest price in town.

No minutes of moving so far.

Monday Resturant Review and CAlories/Minutes

Paradise Bakery-always good, always hot, and always priced right.

TGIF Friday-never can go wrong with their french onion soup or jack daniels feature platters, however, I tried their chicken burscetta dish. It had hugh portions, but not enough taste to it. The pasta dish was hot but not steaming. So, the past was slightly dried out when they served it to me.

Buffalo Wild Wings-Their new slider platters are awesome as my family would say.You want wings they gotta but they are not healthy.

Dominos Pizza-isn't bad but we are kinda tried out on pizza around here.

Taco Bell-definitely has healthy choices and we feed six people for under $20.00.

Logan's Steakhouse-love the atomsphere, and the fact you can be messy with peanut shells with kids awesome. They under cooked their salmon on two orders. The steak wasn't bad but they didn't listen to how the baked potato or baked sweet potato was suppose to be. It wasn't the waitress but the cook staff in the back. Be sure to send our food back if it doesn't come out right. The meal deal for $13.99 for two full meal platters for adults is a good value.
