  Apparently, skin is no longer “in” concerning the NCAA Basketball fashion scene. Spandex and socks now cover 90% of the bodies of these premier athletes and you will be surprised to find out some of the real reasons many of them do it (hint, it’s not medical)! The skin between the hem of the shorts and the top of the high tops have been shrinking for years. Think back to t... Read More »

Whine Time Wine Time

Whine Time = Wine Time

You probably shouldn’t be reading this if you are against drinking or think that drinking a glass of wine around kids is bad parenting. By the way, if you do happen to feel this way, I highly disagree with you and think you probably need a glass of wine yourself.  And, if you don’t even have kids but have an opinion about this, then you won’t even be heard, because you have NO id...

For anyone who read my first post, knows that I am an animal lover and I’m also a vet tech, so this is where my confession stems from.

Finding the Best Babysitter

Finding the Best Babysitter

When it comes to kids you can never be too safe, especially when it’s your own little one were talking about. That’s why it is important to ask as many questions as you can possibly think of before hiring a babysitter.

Weight Loss & Nutrition Email

Weight Loss & Nutrition Email

I’ve recently, in the past year, done a 180 with my weight. I get emails all the time and wanted to share an example of the advice I give to a typical person in need of some help! Going from 170-120 lbs took two years and it could have taken a lot less time if I focused more on my nutrition!! Oh, and feel free to take advantage of the coupon code at the bottom of this post for Express Your H... Read More »
