I’ve been following @bookieboo and some of the other ladies who participate with the Mamavation group for some time. Finally decided to join the group and get some mamavation going while I work harder towards my health and fitness goals. Today I got my approval to join and let me just say I’m PUMPED! Or [...]
Let’s start over…
I’m starting some goals over again this week. It’s a new week and I’m feeling optimistic. I’ve noticed I’ve been bad lately in all kinds of areas and need a good kick in the ass. Reading, finances, school, work, family, and self need a bit of re-evaluation. We just have to review these things every [...]
Tips for frugal shopping
I’ve gone back to work full time again but that’s no reason for me to go back to spending whatever like we used to. In fact being home for nearly 2 years with the family even while my husband’s work slowed down last year taught us we needed to do the opposite. Now that I’m [...]
Changes
My goodness…working full time, going to school, caring for the family, reading, reviewing, and blogging is insanely time consuming! I wonder now when there’s time just for me! I’ve not blogged and read as much as I’ve wanted (though I’m trying to get it back like before instead of “cramming” on the weekends). At work [...]
My Blogging Resolutions
Well since I had regular resolutions for myself in the new year, I figured I ought to think about my resolutions towards blogging. I’ve gone back to work full time in the office, so I won’t have nearly as much time as I once had. Add in my school classes that start back up the [...]
New Year = New Goals
2009 is wrapping to an end very quickly so you know what that means? Time to refresh goals for the year. They say goals need to be attainable and specific in your wish to keep them going. For some goals you could even set up rewards for completion. They also say that you don’t want [...]
SAHM Goes Back to the Office
This home mom is heading back into the office after 3 years. Woohoo!! I feel as if I’m getting my identity back. 1/2 of the 3 years I worked full time from home (WAHM = work at home mom) while I worked in Corporate America. The other 1/2 I did freelance work and provided services [...]
A Parent’s Worry
That parent would of course be me since I’m writing this post. I’m worried. Worried, worried, worried. I’ve already had my weepy fit this morning from guilt and worry. My little man is now in the care of a pediatric neurologist and supposedly one of the best in the Raleigh area. I brought him to [...]
Tuesday Toot 8.25.09
In the past I’ve done my Tuesday Toots with the Mommy Community over at Wife and Mom of 3 but I believe I’m going to start doing them here now. I’ve recently started this blog as a “transformation” of sorts. I am hoping to make my 30s much happier, healthier, and obviously sexier. Throwing out [...]
Duke’s Healthy Lifestyle Program
I meant to post about my daughter and my experience with Duke’s Healthy Lifestyle program yesterday, but it was a busy day around here. The intensive program is designed to help overweight children and their families. We are assigned a pediatrician, nutritionist, physical therapist, and working jointly with a psychologist. For the next 6 months [...]
