Three Miles even on a Rainy Day!!!

Do you skip your workout if it's raining?  I used too.  And then the guilt would set in when I looked at my DVD case that houses all my exercise DVD's.  There was no excuse.  It wasn't raining IN my house!  So I pulled out one of my favorites, and I have been feeling great ever since!!  I love my Walk at Home DVD's by Leslie Sansone.  They are so much fun and provide you with a sweat dripping workout---all while moving around your living room!!  She has four basic core moves that she works from and then she also does 1-2 minute "boost" that really intensifies the workout.  Just so much fun.  If you are pushed for time, she also gives you the option to do one, two, or three miles.  Then after the cool down, she does some great toning and abdominal work on the floor.
 I'm not one for the whole gym membership thing so I have always loved my DVD's.  Walmart also sells several of Leslie's DVD's...  If you are looking for a good one----these are it!!!

New Do, New Me....

     Got the hair all cut off...  I love it!!  Feel like a new me.  My hair before was just so thin at the length it was--it had to go.  I also started using a new product for thinning hair. It's called Nioxin..  Today was the first day to use it so I'm going to give it a few weeks before I say how it's doing.  However, my old flame (LOL), Nick Lachey,  is the spokesman for them---and he always speaks the truth!!!
      I've also decided I've really got to refocus my energies back on me.  I feel like I've let myself go lately because of my "divorce stress".  I have just got to turn that over to God and not worry so much about it.  I have a to get back to putting me and Mac on top of the list.  No matter what.  Many people are going through much worse circumstances than mine.  I need to feel blessed for what I have and the wonderful friends and family that are in my life.  I write and post alot of motivational post---but sometimes I don't think I take my own advice!  I can make my life better and happier, I've just got to chose to do so.  This is my new resolve, think of me and make me BETTER.  No one else is going to do it for me.

Here's to a new "Do" and a better ME!!!

Nioxin Tip:  The numbers are very important.  I use 3 because it is for normal thinning and color treated.  Make sure you get what is best suited for your hair.  I bought mine at the Ulta store...

Zulily---Check it Out!!

A few weeks ago a friend of mine at work turned me onto this site called Zulily.  It has virtually everything you can think of.  Clothes for all ages, housewares, jewelry and my favorite--shoes!!  They offer specials on select categories everyday with great prices.  The only catch to this is that none of the items can be returned.   I just ordered my first item today.  It was very easy.  I view the site via my iPhone every morning.  The items tend to sell out as the day progresses, so check it out as soon as you get the alert!!
