I am back to tracking my fitness again...it's about time.

I am not sure what it is, but I just love to ...read more

Woo hoo...a much needed break from the real world. We all know that Vegas is anything, but the real world and I haven't been there in so long so I am very excitied. I leave on Saturday, but will be out of the office on Friday...sorry no new posts! No worries, I will back in action in no time. On ...read more

I am sick! Can you believe it? After all of the certainty that I would not get sick...here I am with my box of tissues and cup of hot green tea. You win some you lose some I guess right? I have gotten over the worst of it, but I still wake up with a bit of a sore throat and stuffy nose. Why did it ...read more

Why is it that everyone around me is sick and I never seem to get the illness? I probably just jinxed myself, but lets hope otherwise. When I am sick I like to make Greek Lemon Soup; the lemon is a nice flavor boost compared to plain old chicken noodle. Here is the recipe so that you may enjoy it ...read more

I love these; they are amazing. You literally can't believe your eyes.  ...read more

Haha...they put some work into that one huh?  ...read more

Ok, I know...long time since I blogged and I have no excuses - I was lazy! Anywho...I am back to blog up a storm and fill you all in on my latest trials and tribulations. Ha...right! In all honesty, I have nothing of high excitement or new to report. Oh wait...my best friend now works with me ...read more

As horrible as they are for me, I LOVE THEM! I can't help myself - they remind me of the movies and my mom haha. Hands down...one of my all time favorite candies. Chocolate covered peanuts - what can I say? Please don't even tell me that you don't like them. Despite my efforts to tone up and be ...read more

Ugh! Back to work ladies and gentlemen...boy was I reluctant to get out of bed this morning. I had such a nice weekend at the beach; it couldn't have been better. The weather was fantastic, there wasn't a single soul on the beach, and just the right amount of wind. We decided to go to a beach that we ...read more

Who wouldn't be excited to get their own box of kitty pop-tarts? I know I want one...I need to get me some Kittie-Tarts.  ...read more

I think the gloomy weather is bringing my mood down...  ...read more

Finally, the weather will clear up for me. Tomorrow will be sunny skies rolling on through Saturday.  ...read more

I want these...are they cute or what? I think I am going to order them; I don't have yellow shoes yet *wink* I think I like them in black better though!  ...read more

Good morning! I have been awake since 1:30 this morning because for some reason I could not sleep. Surprisingly, I feel wide awake - that could be from the soda and coffee that I have shamelessly been consuming to keep me alert... So anyway, I bought a dresser from Ikea this weekend because I have ...read more

This is great! It is a little bit long, but it is worth watching. http://www.funnyjunk.com/movies/173/Evolution+Of+Dance/  ...read more

"You know, I hate gay people, so I let it be known," Hardaway said Wednesday, according to a transcript on the Miami Herald Web site. "I don't like gay people and I don't like to be around gay people. I am homophobic. I don't like it. It shouldn't be in the world or in the United ...read more

Did you miss me? Of course you did. Unfortunately I have been busy this week and did not get around to posting anything in the last couple of days. Luckily I did get my disc changer replaced in my car. I have never been more sick of the radio broadcasting in my life; ugh it was horrible. There ...read more

Ok, so yes it was Super Bowl XLI, but that is not why I was out as many might like to speculate. I wasn't totally plastered and woke up with a fat migrane. In all honesty, my neck and back were hurting all night so I didn't get an ouce of shut-eye. I actually npotified my company at 4:37 am that I ...read more

Ugh! Ok, so the Bears lost and Payton Manning went on to win Super Bowl XLI, I guess you can't win them all right? In all honesty, it didn't even seem like I watched the Super Bowl at all. I avoided all of the pre-game crap, missed the half time show, and couldn't hear any of the commercials; during the ...read more

It was a rough start to the weekend. I tried so hard not to cry, but it was innevitable. Bob was put out of his misery at 12:45 pm. It was the saddest thing I had ever seen; he was laying there in the incubator with his tongue out and in shock (his temp was 7 degrees below normal). It was so sad to ...read more

She has had a rough couple of nights this week and I am not too sure that they are going to get any better for her today. Her cat, Bob (pictured) seems to have taken a turn for the worst. He has been in and out of the vet for bacterial infections (bladder infections, e-coli and dehydration) and the ...read more

Ok, so I finally spoke to a representative from the maintenance department at Infinit and apparently I need to have the entire disc changer replaced. Ugh! Not only do I have to wait for the part to come in to the service department, but I also do not get my cd's back until they are removed from ...read more

Ok, so I am not a happy camper this morning. Why you ask? Well let's see...all of my CDs are stuck in my disc changer. They won't play, eject, or load. I have no idea why this happened, but I am pissed. The entire trip to work this morning was horrible; I was trying to get the CDs to eject or play or ...read more

Happy Wednesday; it's all downhill from here and aren't I glad for that. Surprisingly this week has been going by quite rapidly. I didn't even get a chance to post a blog yesterday. All in all not much was missed. So last night I went to the Goodwill...yes, the Goodwill. I went hunting for treasure. ...read more

So today I had a doctor's appointment; the first in quite some time now. It's not that I didn't ever want to go to the doctor, but more so that I didn't want to have to pay them for my visit. I hate those damn co-payments. With all of that said, I scheduled an appointment anyway and paid the due ...read more

Good Morning Everyone, I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. As planned, I got my oil changed and feel like a truck load was lifted off of my shoulders. I had been putting it off for so long that it was really starting to get to me. Boy, have the prices sure gone up! I had to change the oil in ...read more

My favorite day of the week! I don't have any plans for this weekend, other than getting my oil changed, but I am still excited. I get to sleep in and do whatever I want for the next two days. I love it. I think I am going to try a new recipe tomorrow; I like to try something new at least once ...read more

Hello everyone, Today, it was smooth saling on the way to work this morning. I decided to carpool so that it was less of a headache for me. It turned out to be a nice, calm morning with zero traffic interuptions. It was definitely a much needed sigh of relief. For a few days there it seemed like ...read more

Ugh! That's pretty much how my morning started out. Not only did I not want to wake up at all this morning, but I was in a rush, and two idiot drivers almost caused me to crash. Someone please explain to me why no one uses their blinkers and why people get out of one lane and then realize that ...read more

Hello again! I finally had my car washed today; well I just took it through the Shell car wash, but it looks a lot shinier then it did before. It has been two weeks since it's last bath and I was begining to feel guilty. It's poor wheels and tires were dirty and dull, the interiror was dusty and ...read more

Good morning everyone! I am slowly working my way through the week; although it is only Tuesday, I have a feeling this week will breeze right on through. Today we have a nice sunny day here in my area; a good day to go and get my car a much needed bath. That's my plan for lunch today; we'll see if ...read more

Well, well, well. who saw this one coming? I can say that I am honestly surprised at the out come of Sunday's championship games. I don't particularly care for any of the teams that were in the last four, but I was rooting for the Bears...always go for the underdog. I don't like the Colts and I ...read more

Bagel Day! Every Friday my company brings in bagels for all employees to enjoy and indulge. I know some worry about those extra carbs, but really bagels aren't all that bad. As long as you take the necessary precautions, you will be just fine. I usually stick to eating only half of a bagel; I leave ...read more

Happy Thursday everyone! Woo hoo, tomorrow is Friday! Ok, so yesterday I had a hair appointment with Karen Abbey, my hair stylist (www.karenabbey.com) and she decided that it was time to strip away the brown box dye from my locks and infuse my hair with golden-honey shimmer. I praise her; she is ...read more

Happy Tuesday morning everyone! Ok, so here's my thing...I don't like eating the same meals every week and I hate repetition, so once per week I try to cook a meal that I have never made or tried before. Last night I made Mango Chicken and it was delicious. It is a very low calorie and ...read more

Ladies, this one is for you. I have always been aware of heart disease and want to try and spread the awareness to those around me and In With Fitness members. You have probably seen the cereal commercials discussing heart disease, but have you really thought about it on a personal level? This is ...read more
