I am so directionally challenged. My husband always says that I couldn't find my way out of a one room apartment. Although that is a total over-exaggeration and completely condescending, I do agree I have some issues with knowing my way around. Put me in a city and I will just assume all roads are symmetrical. I have gotten myself in quite a few binds with that kind of mentality. Oh, by

Ya ever wonder why life doesn't just throw you a bone once in awhile? Why is it that when one problem is solved in your life, another arises? I don't mean to sound negative. Oh, well, maybe I do but seriously, at any given time in your life is it possible for all things to be going right? Whether it be work, your relationship, your health, you finances, something is always in a dumper at

Looking good is a pivotal thing in my life. I really think that how you look on the outside highly affects how you feel on the inside. If I slink around in sweat pants and don't do my hair, I just feel icky. If my face looks like I exploded in pimples, I want to stay inside all day. Why for goodness sakes, is there not the perfect acne cure? Maybe there is, I am just have not tried it yet.

Tonight, SNL is supposed to have another awesome Palin skit, in response to the VP debate the other night. I am still laughing over this one. I just think Tina Fey hits it on the head so perfectly. I am not a Palin fan and I think her folksy talk is stupid. I just cannot relate. I love it that they are going to do another one and really focus in on that stupid talk. Make sure you tune in!

I can't believe how long it has been since I worked out. I feel like a big blob. My weight has creeped up a couple pounds. I can't believe how fast it seems to happen. Reallly, it's probably only been about a week and a half...still, if I don't exercise, I feel so fat. I am wondering about that diet product, alli, has anyone used it? Does it work? Is it really expensive? I guess I can

Okay, another North Korea rant, this question is directed right to the North Korean hierarchy. You know, "the people that be." Why does it make any sense that because the United States did not remove your country from our terrorist list that you are to re-open your nuclear bomb facility? Is that an oxy-moron? You are mad that we didn't remove you from our list of potential attackers so

Where can you find numbers for any state in the US? The 50 state phone book of course! So easy, so convenient. I am all about using an online Phone Book versus going down and flipping the pages of my big fat one. In fact, I think I am going to do away with that big bulky book altogether! It is taking up precious space! This site has easy searching and is super fast to find what you need.

Why is it when I sit down to blog lately, my mind goes blank. I can't tell you how many times I get these great ideas or things in my head that I just want to blog about but I am in the middle of something so I can't. And lately, I have been feeling so down in the dumps too. My self esteem is totally falling. I haven't been working out, I feel like my friends are deserting me. I know I am

I am so in the mood to bake something. I go through this...it's not hunger related, it's like a desire for relaxation thing. Baking does relax me. Especially cookies and breads, like banana and zucchini bread. I think though I need to look up some new cookie recipes. I am kind of bored of my old ones. I am thinking about a ginger snap cookie or pumpkin spice cookies. Oh, I am so ready for

Gawd how I dread today. Work has been nuts and will continue like this all week. Today's Rosh Hoshana so the kids have off from school. They are not really going to let me get much work done....as most WAHMs already know. It is so much harder to work from home...let the juggling begin. I already have a full dishwasher to empty and 2 loads of laundry to put away! Fun, fun!

I am on a roll just depressing people today... I can't help it. My mood has been sobered by finances and nuclear threats. Even in my own hometown, I worry about Sexual Predators. There are two articles in my local paper about attempted lurings in nearby neighborhoods. Both times it was man in his 40s trying to pick up 13 year old girls. He would ask them if they saw his lost dog. How

The news today just keeps getting worse... The Dow's dropped nearly 778-points today.... being the worst single-day point loss ever. This of course came after the House rejected the government's $700 billion bank bailout plan. A sad, sad day...banks, even big banks are actually collapsing. What will happen to our economy? Today feels like we have just fell into a big black hole in the

I love having a blog. I love it that there are so many other blogs out there. And I love it that most stores, restaurants and small companies have websites. I think everybody should have one! Websites galore. People are sharing their thoughts and ideas everywhere! I think it is great too how easy it is to find out a cheap web hosting listing. Right here, totally summarized. So

North Korea. A country that despises the United States. As of last Wednesday, the North began forcing U.N. monitors from the Yongbyon nuclear plant and plans to start reactivating it. They are believed to have enough plutonium at Yongbyon to make at least eight or nine nuclear weapons. YIKES!!! Supposedly today a negotiator named Chris Hill, is to leave New York for North Korea to talk

I have been hearing more and more about the idea of detoxifing your body. It does give me the creeps to think about the fact that I could have grotesque foods just sticking around on the insides of my colon. I happen to be a very clean person. I don't eat or drink anything that doesn't appear clean. Just today, I ordered a bagel with cream cheese at WaWa. As I was walking away from the

Well we had another mom's night out last night. As part of our playgroup, occasionally us moms go out for a drink or two. This time, it was a couple regulars and a couple new moms that have never attended before. It is funny how you get a bunch of women together at a table and it is pretty obvious who are the partygirls and who are not. I like to drink and talk but after about an hour or two,

I so need this. One way to really get my buttox in gear would be to try out this Bikini Boot Camp. Basically it is for women only which is good because I don't want to be competing with any men. Seriously, I love the idea of a fitness boot camp. I really do need someone shouting in my ear to move it. If you are interested, check out www.BootyCampFitness.com. They focus on all different

I like this one...perfect for what is going on in my life right now. Men...they can really be buttheads. After a huge argument last night, I am not feeling too positively about the fact that my hubby is unappreciative for the fact I do everything around this place. Yes, he works more but believe me, he also does a lot less. Anyway, here is something a friend sent to me: "Eleven people were

Are you looking to power up your vehicle? Maybe get better performance? There is nothing worse than driving a car that is just put-putting along. I know mine could use a little more power. If you are interested, check into a turbocharger for your car then. Turbochargers boost your engine so you can get about 50-percent more air into the engine, which means more power. And more power means

It is time to start teaching tolerance. We all need this lesson. Learning how to deal with others that are different from you either racially, intellectually, religiously, whatever.... is so crucial in society today. Hate crimes must stop. It goes beyond just kids bullying one another just because one looks or acts different from them in any way. This is a great overview article from

We hear so much about beauty in the media these days. Everywhere you look there is an ad. I guess it is the world we live in. We should just face it. The truth is though the more I hear about a particular product, the more we trust in it. Seriously, I have heard about Proactiv so much I undoubtedly trust it. It might not work at all but since I hear so much about it, I just assume it does.

You know what annoys me? Parents of children that feel it is okay to let their kids hit back. Really, haven't we all grown up to realize that this solution will not get them anywhere? Or at least, not anywhere good. I have been hearing parents actually say that if their kid gets hit by another kid [repeatedly] that they should just hit them back. Number 1: Why aren't we teaching our kids to

Yes, I have heard it myself too but didn't really know all the ins and outs. Some of my guy friends though, they know everything. They are like ATV encyclopedias.

I am totally bugging right now. This may sound totally gross but I have a toenail that was damaged. It turned black some time ago but the truth is, I don't even remember dropping something on it. Sure, my 33 pound daughter often steps on it but I would have more black toenails if that were the case. Finally, after googling, I came across this explanation. I would have never thought that this

I am so in the mood to start furniture shopping again. Our basement has been finished for awhile but we just haven't gotten the chance to look for some cool Counter Stools for our "bar area." Basically we built in a long counter top area with cabinets underneath behind our couch. Sort of to break the one big room into two rooms. Plus it looks awesome and serves as a great entertaining area.
