This weekend was my hubs birthday. The big idea person in me had planned a getaway to the Opus hotel overnight for us….the dream of a child free night danced in our head. Then reality slipped in. Sneaky sneaky reality. The kids had been….em ….difficult, to put it nicely. By Friday we were feeling beaten […]
Earth Day – Disney Style
I am a bit behind in this but Earth Day is coming up this weekend. We usually spend Earth Day at our local nature park where tree plantings take place and so on. The latest from Disney Nature – Chimpanzee also debuts on Earth Day. As part of this, Disney hosted an Earth Month event, […]
Hallmark Seasons
I can’t find the Chicken. This was probably more crucial BEFORE Easter when I received another fantastic box from Hallmark. Unfortunately, things got away from me and I didn’t manage to share with you all the fun Easter ideas Hallmark had. The Chicken is awesome by the way. Spring isn’t just about Easter though. Spring […]
Worn Down – Push Through

Real Living Nutrition Balance Program – Week 3
I will totally admit to sucking on this program. However, in a way it has been a success because instead of a diet program and focusing on weight loss, the Real Living Nutrition program has been a way to think and rethink how I eat, why I eat and how to make it better long […]
Poke the Crazy People with a Stick
So today was an interesting day. We put the review model of the Ford Edge through it’s paces today. We drove in rain, wind, highway’s and rocky mountain trails….all in one day. I also realized that what I just ‘do’ is too much for some people and probably borderline crazy. Like today. We drove to […]

I was asked to join the Green Works Community on Big Tent so we could share our experiences with the products. Since I already use them, I agreed. I am a bit behind, but do want to share my views on the items that were sent to me to check out. Sent just in time […]
