I found the Arizona Diet Green Tea with Ginseng at the store two days ago. It’s got a great flavor and zero calories. Not to mention…inexpensive. I bought 48 cans so it should last me awhile. They are a little over 23 ounces per can. We are temporarily caught up

I got a call from the realtor two days ago, and we close on my house June 2nd. My heart sank. I guess deep down, I was hoping their financing would fall through. I love my house with all the beautiful shade trees and the enclosed front porch. I have a glider on the porch. I had

There was a message on my answering machine the other night from a woman I use to be friends with over 20 years ago. She recently moved back in the area and heard we had a lawn care business. She wanted to know if we could give them an estimate on cutting their lawn. With the good

I had some business to take care of in Joliet today and stopped at White Castle on the way out of town. I had proceeded into the restroom after one of the employees had exited. The sink was bone dry. It was quite obvious she didn’t was her hands. She walked back behind the

I must be working too hard today. When I went to check my pedometer, it was gone. We were at our second lawn when I noticed it missing. We back tracked after we finished that yard but to no avail. I hope who ever found it, puts it to go use. I guess my son knows me too well. He bought

The sun is shining and the weather is perfect. There are tons of garage sales today. I just put on my pedometer and am heading out the door with mom. Love finding those bargains…whether I need it or not. Shopping and losing weight…I love them both.

I sure didn’t get much of a break cutting grass. I helped my husband Saturday with two lawns inbetween rain. Today we weren’t so lucky. We had finished two lawns and were working on the third when the skies opened up. Whoaaa….a torrential downpour. I didn’t

I have forgotten to take my blood pressure pill and water pill for the last 3 days. When I got on the scale this morning, I had gained almost 4 pounds. It has to be the water retention. I just never realized I retained that much so quickly. I can tell by the way the elastic in

I tried a recipe yesterday I got from another blogger. It was Portabella mushrooms baked in the oven with salsa and then sprinkled with low fat mozarrella cheese and returned to the oven until it melted. They were delicious. I need to eat more foods like that. Today I’m making

It feels like winter edging it’s way back. The wind is howling, the skies are gray, and its drizzling. It’s a perfect day to curl up with a good book and a cup of hot tea. I went with my husband this morning to cut a lawn. Before we reached the business it started

Weight Loss Help – The What, Where, and Why Any individual hoping to shed a few pounds has more than likely been inundated with advertisements and products promising to completely transform their physical image and their life overnight. The negative connotations associated with

Today we are going down to the house to finish packing up things. I’m being optomistic when I say that. I’m hoping we finish packing. It’s been a long time since I’ve burnt any of my bridges..it sure feels odd. The hardest thing is going to be keeping my husband

I got good/bad news on Friday. My house has sold. I had to go sign the papers yesterday and the people want to close on June 1st. YIKES!! I’m already sore as heck from all this yard work and my husband’s lawn business….this packing up is going to be a killer

I’ve just been to sore and tired to make any posts the last few days. I have been helping my husband dig out the area for the patio. I bought a new shovel a couple of days ago and it holds more dirt. My shoulders and arms are killing me today. At least the digging is done

Getting Skinny In A Hurry We live in a culture that loves instant gratification, and the way we diet is no exception. The first thing we want to see when we embark on a new diet is virtually instant results. There is nothing wrong with that expectation if the diet is done in a healthy

It’s been raining the last couple of days so we haven’t been able to cut any lawns. YEAAAA Today I was helping my husband dig out the space for the patio. I’m sure my shoulders will be killing me later. The dirt was heavy because of all the moisture. I don’t
