Be Specific - Ask For What You Want

Saturday, November 15th, 2008

I can’t remember who I heard this from but I remember listening to a program on the radio and they were talking about people never getting what they want because they don’t ask for it.  It was as simple as that.   How can you get what you want if you don’t ask for it? 
At the time we had [...]

Kick The Habit - No More

Monday, October 27th, 2008

I was hoping our Kick The Habit would have been a little bit more successful then it has over the past couple of weeks.  So for those of you who had joined our Kick The Habit we may just pick it back up in a couple of months.  Possibly December or January when we are [...]

Works For Me Wednesday - The Well-Stocked Pantry

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

I have to admit that I’m a bit fanatical about having a well-stocked pantry. I always have sugar, brown sugar, flour, noodles, rice, canned tomatoes, canned beans, dry beans, cake mixes, brownie mixes, pie filling, chocolate chips, cornmeal, oatmeal, peanut butter, syrup, jelly, Italian salad dressing (sometimes other kinds too), barbecue sauce, steak sauce, soy [...]

Shannon’s post today over at Rocks In My Dryer, our hostess for Works For Me Wednesday is about her laundry schedule - that sounds like a good idea to me, I need to try and implement it around here, anyway her post inspired me to write about the one thing I do with laundry that [...]

Like the Girl Scouts - Be Prepared

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

Last night I was sitting watching some television when my house suddenly went dark.  Every light in the place was dead.  The flashlight I was so proudly congratulating myself for having stowed in my kitchen junk drawer had dead batteries.  My car was locked in the garage because my garage door was electric and I [...]

Sunday’s Sanity Saver - Take a Nap

Sunday, September 28th, 2008

Really, I mean it - if at all possible, when you get worn down with life and your responsibilities, take a little time out for a quick nap after work or on a weekend afternoon. Give yourself permission to wind down and relax. I find that with Lil Sugar (and the dog) constantly interrupting my [...]
