Lipovox combines 12 Super Foods and 2 Super Antioxidants to not only burn fat, but also reduce acne. As with any… [Continue Reading]

I never heard about mesothelioma until recently. I had a dear friend that had lung problems and guess what? It is part of this. Mesothelioma is a serious disease. The only known cause of mesothelioma is asbestos. I had NO idea! Sad that my friend was only 25 when he discovered he had this. So… [Continue Reading]

Every day comes the famous question “What’s for dinner?” I am running out of ideas, seriously. I think I come up with pretty yummy ideas, but not enough. I think the kids are getting bored with meals. With more moms like me preparing meals at home, keeping dinner ideas fresh, easy to prepare and budget-friendly… [Continue Reading]

When we were house hunting, we really liked the deck that is on our house. I would have to say it was probably the decision maker. Well, with this deck, we now need some outdoor furniture. Our summers here in the Midwest are not too hot like they were in the south, so we plan… [Continue Reading]

Gotta love old houses, huh? I really do not think that our house has ever ‘really’ had anything NEW added to it. This is where my plans will be changing. I would love to redo my kitchen completely.

We have been thinking more about our future and with this, comes life insurance. I have been looking around to get a life insurance quote, but there are just too many places out there and I don’t know who to trust.

Hubby got me a watch for my birthday last year. I love it and love watches in general. Ah, who am I kidding? I love jewelry in general. LOL I recently saw some Blancpain watches that really did catch my eye. I love the watches that are offered here. I am over here making my… [Continue Reading]

I grew up in a computer household. I think that is why I have my fascination with computers the way that I do. My dad always had programmer jobs and this helped me learn at an early age what my real passion in life was. I may not have gone to school for programming, but… [Continue Reading]

I love trying out new wine. I never really was in to wine until my mother had me try some at her house. I never knew that there was a wine of the month program out there. This would be better than a fruit of the month club. LOL I may have to check in… [Continue Reading]

I would love to make a family trip to Florida. I went this past summer to visit a girlfriend, but I would love to check in to the amazing and fun Orlando vacations. The kids are getting to an age where they may just enjoy something like this. I know I would! I am 33… [Continue Reading]

Who wouldn’t love putting on the fuzzy slippers, staying in your jammies and shopping on their couch? You will not catch me… [Continue Reading]

Of all the things in this life that are freaky – that’s spiders. They just make my skin crawl. ** shivers ** We live in an old house and spider traps are just what we need to keep these pesty things out. Why do we need traps for mice and spiders, yet we cant trap… [Continue Reading]

The economy may be rough right now,  but it sure seems to be the time to make those smart purchases and get your business rolling…. [Continue Reading]

I can remember when I used to back up my computer with a huge back up drive. Plug in, insert a big tape type device, wait 4 hours and pray that it would actually back up. Now, you can back up with CD’s, DVD’s, servers, external hard drive and now you can do an online… [Continue Reading]

When it comes to dieting, honestly, there isn’t a whole lot out there that claim to be a miracle drug, that actually works. I heard about Leptovox and I was going to research this and add it to my Fitness Challenge posts so that you, my readers, can judge for yourself. No, I am not… [Continue Reading]

Since we moved in to our new (OLD 1900) home in July, we are always on the lookout for some new and fresh items and ideas for our home. One of my dreams that I have had is to have a set of comfy armchairs. I would love to have room for a set of… [Continue Reading]

None of us ever want to get in an accident with our car or truck, but guess what? It happens from time to time and we aren’t so lucky. My hubby was in an accident last summer that scared the bejeezus out of me. Thankfully we had an amazing insurance company that guided up through… [Continue Reading]

The site isnt much to look at right now. My transfer was finally completed yesterday. Now I am working on getting the site up and better than ever. I hope to have it all  finished this weekend. Thank you for your patience!

I have some winners to email, prizes to be sent and fun posts to be done. While Tucker is in Preschool this morning, I will be getting this mega energy cleaning bug out of my system while it is in me. I will be back this afternoon!

As I roll in to my Fitness Challege today, I was reminded last night on how much FAT there is in ground beef. I buy the 5 pound rolls of ground beef, cook it all up and freeze 1/2 and 1 pound portions in Seal -A-Meal bags. I love this machine! My mother bought this… [Continue Reading]

I think we are all guilty of taking advantage of the things that we have. Just a couple of days before Christmas, a house just down the street from my house burned. I still cry when I see this house. I do not even know the neighbors. I do believe that this is the time… [Continue Reading]

I cannot even begin to express how much home security means to me, and us, as a family! Now that we own our own home, we want to protect what we have earned. When I was a child, our home was burglarized and even though I was very young, this was very traumatic to me…. [Continue Reading]

Well, New Year’s Resolution #3 is accomplished. Damn almond bark. Why can’t it be easier to get the bowls clean? LOL Actually, it wasn’t hard at all. I blame it on my short attention span and lack of ‘wanting’ to get them clean.

New Year’s Resolution #1: Unpack holiday travel suit cases New Year’s Resolution #2: Paint ugly hallway What is my New Year’s Resolution #3? Well, let’s see… I made some holiday snacks and dipped cookies and pretzels in Almond bark. Do you see where I am going with this? New Year’s Resolution #3 is to clean… [Continue Reading]

I am so excited! The kids got this fun playhouse from Grandma and Papa for Christmas. Hubby thinks it can wait until SUMMER to put it up. Uh. No. Guess what will be put up this week? It will go on our deck, until we can get a fence installed for our yard. Our deck… [Continue Reading]

When hubby had his accident last year, I was so thankful that we had great insurance and we didn’t have to search around for car parts on our own. If you do need to search around, I have found that Car Parts Warehouse has nice pricing and super fast shipping.

I am so bad. I have been so in tune to catching up on my blog and enjoying being home, that I have been slacking on unpacking our bags from Christmas. We have been home since SUNDAY and here are my suitcases…. Still sitting in my entry way, just begging to be unpacked and toted… [Continue Reading]
