Women, most of us take a daily multi vitamin of some kind. Some have calcium, some, like mine are stress relief assistance and some are a well rounded general health type. We know it's important to keep ourselves healthy and we know that most of the time we do not have the time or energy to eat what we need to to get those vitamins we need.
However, our men eat what we eat. So if we are not getting the proper nutrition, neither are our men! So how many of you bought a men's multivitamin for your sweetheart last time you were at the drugstore?
It's just as important for them to stay healthy and keep their energy up. After all, we need them! Who else would move the furniture for us to vacuum, kill the bug in the bathroom at 1am or knock out the wall when we get the wild idea to remodel. We need them to be healthy, and just like our children, they depend on us to keep them that way.

Natural Detoxification....
It is always important, especially in today's world of high calorie, high fat, high preservative foods, to help our bodies flush out all of the unnatural things we put into them. Your kidneys for example need lots and lots of water to flush out all of the chemicals and minerals that build up in them. Your colon, or large intestines, need regular treatment to flush the toxins they retain.
WebMD states, "The practice of natural colon cleanse dates back to ancient Greece. In the United States, cleansing the colon -- the large intestine -- became popular in the 1920s and 1930s. But when the theories behind it lost support, it fell out of favor. Recently, though, colon cleansing -- using, for example, teas, enzymes, or colon irrigation -- has experienced resurgence"
It is now highly believed that the toxins found in your body can cause all types of illnesses such as fatigue, exhaustion, naseaus, pain, cramping, headache and weight gain. One of the main theories behind detoxifying your body, dates back centuries to the belief that undigested foods, minerals and vitamins cause buildup in areas of the body. The buildup creates toxins that are then released back into the body and are rapidly absorbed into the blood by the very nature of where they are stored.
So I would think that a regular, natural detoxification of your body would be very beneficial to your overall health and well being. Natural detoxifications can be done many, many ways. Anything high in antioxidants like grape juice and green teas are a great way to help your body on a daily basis. And for those who are believers, many religions believe in fasting as a religious practice, however, God would never lead you astray! Fasting regularly is a wonderful way to give your body the chance to flush out all the toxins it's keeping. And a water flush is another great way to flush your body, especially your kidneys.
Take some time to find out which option or options would be best for you and try it. See if you can give yourself that boost you need.

I want your opinion...
I have been seeing alot of appetite suppressants being advertised lately, tons of appetite suppressant reviews that you can never be sure legit, and I am wondering if any of them actually work. I want to hear from people who have actually tried them and I want to know your results. Did they really suppress your appetite? Did you lose weight? Did you find yourself binging after they wore off? Did you find the side effects to be too much to handle? What are your experiences? I want to start an open conversation about appetite suppressants, complete with your experiences, thoughts, warnings and praises. So please, let me know what you think. Leave your comments below and lets start a discussion on this.
Why kids are better than 1 hour on the ellipticals...
Why having kids is better than spending an hour on the ellipticals...
#1 Laundry, Breakfast, Shopping, Cleaning, School Program, Dance Practice, Soccer Game, Football Practice and finally bedtime....
#2 "Why did you draw on the wall with permanent marker?!?" Scrub, scrub, up and down, up and down, scrub, scrub
#3 "You let the dog off it's chain?!?" "Here puppy, puppy. Here puppy, puppy" "No! Bad puppy! Don't run away from me!"
#4 "You had a crayon in the pocket of your jeans and I missed it?" Take the clothes out of the dryer, scrub, scrub, scrub.
#5 Kitchen cleaned, on to the livingroom. Livingroom cleaned, on to the..... What have you done to my clean kitchen!?!?
#6 Disneyland? Seriously?!? How about the beach instead?

Natural Eczema Treatment
I have long been a huge promoter of the wonderful health and wellness benefits of Coconut oil and here is yet another wonder benefit. Coconut oil works as a healing agent as well as a wonderful moisturizer so for those of you with eczema, try this.
Take a teaspoon of Coconut oil, mix it with 1/2 teaspoon of sugar. After washing your hands with soap and water, massage the coconut oil and sugar mixture over the area affected by eczema. Rinse the mixture off and pat dry. Massage with another 1/2 teaspoon of plain coconut oil and pat dry with a soft towel. You will instantly feel the difference!

Wintertime Blues
It must be wintertime. I know this because my father just returned from Arizona. He was down there looking at Phoenix and Scottsdale foreclosure homes. He always seems to get the wintertime blues just about the time the inversion starts to settle in and he starts thinking that the grass is greener somewhere else.
But the good news is that soon the inversion will lift, the sun will find itself closer to the earth and melt the snow and he will start to get cabin fever and I mean that in every sense of the word. He's building a cabin up in the woods and he can't wait to get up there to play!

I Want to Win a Wii
I am very excited. Today my boss announced that the top seller will win a Nintendo wii with the Guitar Hero upgrade. Now, I'll admit, I do already have a Wii, but I do not have the Guitar Hero nor do I have a Wii that I can use. Every waking minute at least one child is on our Wii.
So if and when I win the Nintendo Wii from work, I will put it in my newly cleaned craft room and they will NOT be allowed to use it! Wahhhhhahahahah!!!!

I Hate Computers!!!
I work all day on a computer. These lovely little POS systems are supposed to make our lives easier, however for all their bells and whistles, they are inherently irritating! They never work the way you want them to, their programs can only work one way and a simple change can take six weeks to create, test and install, followed by another six to twelve weeks of troubleshooting and "bug fixes".
Well, at work we are in the six to twelve weeks of troubleshooting, "bug fixes" and hair ripping! I can't seem to get through a single order without needing technical support to finish it out. Considering I work partially on commission, this is negatively affecting my bottom line here people!!! Can't I just take the orders by hand???? Pretty, pretty please!?!

Job Market Woes
Is the job market really that tight right now? I would have to say yes. I was laid off for the first time in my entire working career in July and I did not get back to work until December. A full 6 months without work. And I normally find work really easily!
Of course, I'm not typically doing a Construction job search in the middle of winter, but typically I can find a good paying job, quickly and easily.
My brother is the same way and yet, he has been out of work for nearly 9 months. So, unless you are content flipping burgers at McDonald, Yes, the job market is tight.
But the sun is on the horizon. It is getting better and as long as we can all ignore the dreadful, creator of bad news, "the media", and continue to live our lives, spend our money and do our part to strengthen the economy, then things will just get better and better.
