Keepin On!


Today has been just a blah frickin day. Who am I to complain though, after all the complaints at work, after all the unfinished homework, stack of dirty dishes, and the pile of the laundry, I still have my beautiful babies and my health. Tomorrow is another day!


I have started a new book this week, so far so good! maybe a possibilty of actually finishing something this week... fingers crossed!!! Book title: 'If I Stay' by Gayle Forman; I love reading Young adult fiction.(Smile)

The character in this book 'Mia' has a decision to make, life or death, (and believe me it's not what you think) Its a perspective on holding onto what you know and what is unknown to happen in the future. I'm only 40 pages into the book and I hate having to put it down to return to work. The story covers tragedy, family, love, and some interesting characters. Oh how I am anxious to finish this book.


Well goodnight Blog!

Reebok Baby! Easy Tones!

Latley there has been a swarm of shape up shoes that claim to do wonders for your body.. hmmm... I am on a mission to find the true outcome of walking around in these tone-up shoes. I chose the route of the The reebok Easy tones. They look good! The easy tone can Pass for just a regular shoe so I would favor wearing it more often. Will they be effective though.. I hope to find some amazing results for my gluteus maximus.. hahaha.. so the claim is that you get better legs and a better butt with every step. The shoe is designed to increase your legs muscle action by 28% in your glutes, 11% in our hamstrings and 11% in the calves. The percentage is based on tests done compared to a regualr reebok shoe such as the Reebok Express walk. I have reeboks for running shoes, so I'm looking for some major improvments.
I was sad to find out that the only Finish Line close to my house was sold out of the Black and pink EasyTones.( They Look Awesome!) So I will be waiting patiently for a few days while the shoes are shipped.
Excited for their arrival!

Amazon.com = Amazing

I was in search for a new watch a few weeks ago and since moving out of the Twin cities, MN and to a smaller city such as Wichita, KS there is not much access to a large shopping scene, at least compared to having access to the Mall of America in MN. I have since discovered the wonderful side of shopping online. In the past year I have been surrounded by mini malls and a repeat of the same stores, as well as a limited variety of styles due to the lack of... umm ...a large population, shopping is just no fun anymore. To get back on track, as I said I was shopping for a watch, through all the same department stores looking for a Puma brand watch that was under $100.00 and durable for work. I found nothing! One day a co-worker of mine suggested looking on Amazon.com; I was hesitant. After all doesnt it cost an arm and a leg for shipping and on top of that you have to wait days on end for the items to finally arrive? Wrong! Everything I assumed about buying items online has pretty much turned out to be wrong! I began my online shopping browsing the Puma website through their featured watches. I was ready to dish out a heafty $120.00 plus shipping for a watch I fell in love with instantly. Something inside me urged to double check amazon.com; I did and very glad I did. I was able to find a larger variety and selection of not only puma watches but many others for half the price I would be paying ordering through the site of the product. Everything is secure, and I love the option to save a "pay phrase" so the next time you shop just eneter the phrase. The site has inexpensive shipping as well, and also options to recieve free shipping. I recieved my product within 5 days, which I was okay with; paying standard shipping and waiting, I wasn't in too much of a rush. Since this discovery I have discovered many other sites to save money and find a larger selection of products.
Appreciative!
