It's been a while. But I'm here. Posting for the year 2010. <div><br /></div><div>It's been an eventful couple of years! Most recently, Elizabeth broke her femur this past summer. That made the summer very interesting. She was in a half body cast, which made her completely immobile for 4 weeks. While that sounds like it's not such a long time, believe me, it was. We had to completely potty train her again and re-teach her how to walk. But it didn't kill us, so it made us stronger, right? We like to think so.</div><div><br /></div><div>Charlie is in 1st grade now and is doing fantastic! We couldn't be prouder of him. Elizabeth, on the other hand, regressed so much with the broken leg that we are considering keeping her out of Kindergarten next year. We'll decide closer to the time, but if we had to decide right now? She would not be going.</div><div><br /></div><div>In the meantime, I ran my first and second 5k! I'm very stoked that I accomplished this goal and got great times (in my opinion) as well! This has always been a goal of mine and I finally did it. At 32!</div><div><br /></div><div>My husband is kicking butt with his DJ business and it's only getting better. Things couldn't be better with us in this moment.</div><div><br /></div><div>So that's the 411 on what's happened in this circus in the last year or so. I plan to redo this blog and post more often. Stay tuned!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398331391243963651.post-51547610375194933722009-07-21T21:39:00.003-04:002009-07-21T21:40:38.167-04:00Neela Bag Giveaway!Lindsay at Frugal and Fabulous has another great giveaway! <a href="http://www.frugalandfabulous.org/2009/07/giveaway-neela-bags-denali-pack-5.html">Click here</a> to register to win a Neela Bag Denali pack.

Have you ever worried that you'd have an emergency and not be able to communicate a drug allergy or an important piece of medical history to the doctors treating you?</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Well, now with the </span><a style="font-family: arial;" href="https://healthmanager.mayoclinic.com/">Mayo Clinic Health Manager</a><span style="font-family: arial;"> you can keep all of your medical information in one central location, accessible only to those you give permission. This site was just launched Tuesday, April 21 and I had the opportunity to set up an account and check it out a bit. The site is fantastic! When you sign up, you get recommendations based on your gender and age. For example, one of my recommendations was that I calculate my BMI. Another recommendation was that I enter my vaccination history. The more information you enter, the better and more accurate the recommendations will be.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The other thing I like about this that you can be reminded of upcoming appointments or appointments you need to make, such as annual exams, etc. You can also track your entire family under 1 account, which is very nice. Other features include personalized tools like the weight tracker, a place to keep health-related contacts, allergy tracker, and a helpful tool to prepare for an appointment. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The site upholds strict privacy guidelines and only those people you specify can have access to your information. These individuals might be doctors or other family members.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Overall, the </span><a style="font-family: arial;" href="https://healthmanager.mayoclinic.com/">Mayo Clinic Health Manager</a><span style="font-family: arial;"> is a very useful tool for the health conscious person. Check it out and leave a comment letting me know how you like it!</span></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398331391243963651.post-82937638124731165782009-04-21T14:02:00.000-04:002009-04-21T14:03:13.039-04:00Website Review: SparkPeople.com<center><a href="http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/register.asp?referredby=3545413&from=friend" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.sparkpeople.com/assets/newprofile/stl-btn1.gif" alt="SparkPeople.com: Get a Free Online Diet" border="0" /></a></center><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">At the beginning of 2009, I decided I needed to start eating healthier and maybe even drop about 5 lbs. However, I found this to be very difficult. I tried to count calories throughout the day, but would lose track or wouldn't know how many calories were in a particular food, so I would guess. Was I guessing accurately? Probably not.<br /><br />Also, I was so focused on avoiding the things I didn't want in the foods I ate that I wasn't paying attention to the nutrients I needed. Was I getting enough? Probably not.<br /><br />The uncertainty of how much of what I needed and didn't need was daunting to say the least. Needless to say, my diet wasn't working very well for me. </span><span style="font-family:arial;">Then I stumbled upon SparkPeople</span><span style="font-family:arial;">. I first noticed that they offer a </span><a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/register.asp?referredby=3545413&from=friend" target="_blank"><span style="color: rgb(255, 123, 8);">Free Online Diet Plan</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;">. That seemed pretty cool, so I decided to sign up and give it a try.<br /><br />I found that the website has tons of features like a nutrition tracker, fitness tracker, message boards, articles, recipes, and blogs to name a few. The first thing I did was set up my goals. You can select from a plan to lose weight or to maintain your weight. I then took a look at the nutrition tracker, where you can track everything you eat throughout the day and your water consumption. I love this feature! I simply select the food from the dropdown menu (or add a food if it's not in the list) and enter how much I ate. It adds your food to the day and tracks the calories, carbs, and protein. You can also add numerous other nutrients to track. For example, I also track fiber, vitamin D, sodium, and calcium just to be sure I'm getting the correct amounts. The totals run at the bottom of your list along with the amounts you should be getting, depending on the goals you set.<br /><br />The fitness tracker is great as well. You can easily track the exercises you do throughout the day and see how many calories you have burned. I have also joined a few of the message boards, which help me to stay motivated. Another fun feature is the points. By doing different things on the SparkPeople website, you can earn points, which earn you trophies. While these points and trophies don't mean anything, they are motivating to a competitive person like me who likes to see how many points she can rack up in a day.<br /><br />The only downside to this website is all of the advertisements. However, the ads are what keep the site free, so I don't mind them at all.<br /><br />Overall, SparkPeople is a fabulous website that has a lot to offer. Whether you're trying to lose weight or just maintain a healthy lifestyle, this website is the perfect tool.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/register.asp?referredby=3545413&from=friend" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.sparkpeople.com/assets/newprofile/stl-btn2.gif" alt="Join me at: SparkPeople.com" border="0" /></a><br /></center></span></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398331391243963651.post-51070417171081029022009-04-20T18:45:00.000-04:002009-04-20T18:46:09.498-04:00Free Cone Day at Ben & Jerry's 4/21<span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Ben & Jerry's shops are giving away a free cone of ice cream tomorrow, April 21.

So, without further ado, here is my review.<br /><br />The day I received it in the mail was the first time I had ever seen this product. I hadn't noticed it at my grocery or drug store. Even if I had, I am not sure I would have purchased it as it costs about $8. Without a <span style="font-style: italic;">great</span> sale and a high-value coupon, I never would have bought this product. I would have missed out...<br /><br />The first thing I noticed, and liked, was that it is made with 92% natural ingredients. This prompted me to think about all of the chemicals I was routinely putting into my body with the products I already had. Something I rarely thought about was that chemicals can be absorbed into the body from things like lotions. I have more recently begun to try to use natural products both in and on my body. So the fact that this particular moisturizer was mostly natural appealed to me.<br /><br />So, I put the full sized bottle in my bathroom right on the vanity so I would be sure to use it whenever I was there. I first used the moisturizer right out of the shower and my first reaction was, "Wow, this stuff smells great!" As I smoothed it on, I noticed how soft it was making my skin. I just wanted to keep putting more and more on! As I went about my business, I realized that my skin felt great all day. By the end of the day, my skin still felt moisturized, not dry and scaly as it usually does.<br /><br />I would highly recommend Jergen's Naturals Hydrate moisturizer. With over 90% natural ingredients, it fits the bill for anyone trying to reduce chemical use. Also, it has the power to moisturize even the driest skin. Finally, it smells great!<br /><br />Don't let the price stop you from purchasing this moisturizer. The bottle is huge. I've had it for about a month and it's still more than half full after daily usage. It really is a great value.<br /></span><span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:130%;" ><br />Definitely try this product for yourself!!</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398331391243963651.post-50330576294988803162009-03-05T12:39:00.004-05:002009-03-05T13:00:15.165-05:00Weis Deals week of 3/5<span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:130%;" >A few good deals at Weis Markets this week.<br /><br /><u>4-Day Sale Thurs., March 5-March 8</u><br />$1.69/lb Boneless Pork Loins-LIMIT 2 w/ a $25 purchase<br />$3.95/lb California Navel Oranges-8 lb bag-LIMIT 2 w/ a $25 purchase<br />$2.99/lb Farmland Cooked Ham & Weis American Cheese-LIMIT 2 lbs w/ a $25 purchase<br />$0.99 Tastykake Family Packs 8-12.75 oz.
