Could You Type and Walk On A Treadmill At The Same Time?

One of my girlfriends saw the strangest thing on TV a couple of weeks ago. She said that a company had set up treadmills treadmills that could hold laptops so that their staff could walk - all be it slowly - and type at the same time .
Call me crazy but […]

It’s 20 after 3 and I need a Nap!

I think I’m actually going to have to lay down LOL! It’s kind of embarrassing though. Here I am working away, the kids are playing, and I’m pondering different ways to sneak in a nap LOL! The kids are full of energy like they always are though and I’m not sure that […]

Are You A Coupon Clipper?

I’m really not unless it’s a HUGE savings to use the coupon. I’m not sure why I dont’ use them though. I’ve heard of people saving a LOT of money with them - especially double coupons (though I’ve never heard of those here in Canada, I’ve read about them on US blogs - […]

I Watched “The Story Of Us” Last Night

Hubby is away on a boys’ weekend so I’ve got my stack of Chick-Flicks to watch Last night I watched “The Story Of Us”. It sounds romantic but I have to tell you, it’s not LOL! The whole thing is about a couple falling out of love with each other. […]

Daydreaming About My Dream House

Today I find myself staring out the window a lot. It’s a beautiful blue sky day and finally, though it’s still minus 2 outside, it feels warm because it’s been minus 11 or 12 for a couple weeks now. The kids are in the back yard and I’m watching them and thinking about […]

Do You Let Your Kids Pick Their Clothes?

Today Jenn picked out an outfit that really didn’t match. I found myself with a dilemma that I’ve had a few times now - do I let her express herself and wear it anyway or do I save her from the sideways glances she’ll get and strongly suggest she pick another top?
Well, this time […]

Imagine a String Pulling Your Head Up As You Walk

I’ve noticed that my posture is pretty bad. Not horrible mind you, but I certainly don’t “walk tall” - I look kinda mopey and/or sad. And, in my defense, lately I have been mopey and sad BUT I’d rather still look my best so I decided that my best posture corrector would be […]

Canadian Health Care ROCKS!

I was watching TV just now and a commercial for medicare insurance came on. It reminded me of how lucky we are in Canada to not have to pay for any doctor’s visits. I can’t imagine how stressful it must be to have, for example, a heart condition that needs surgery AND that […]

Guitar Hero for Wii - So Fun!!!

I’m not that big video games so I really didn’t think that I’d actually enjoy playing Guitar Hero with the kids but I REALLY did have fun! Now we’re trying to find it for ourselves (it’s at at our family cottage now) to have at home but we can only find it for […]

Sweet Barbeque Honey!

Someone asked me today if we have a nice barbeque. I know that’s not exciting on it’s own but, the odd thing was that I had no idea what the answer was . I mean it looks nice; its a silver colour and it looks kind a big… but […]
