An exercise in exercise

With the summer months coming soon, it’s time to start thinking about how I will look at the beach. The winter was good to me but I managed to put on a few pounds. It’s time to start working it off, but I believe I need a little help. That’s why I turned to the internet to find the motivation I need. I was lucky to find a site that would help me do a 90 Day Review of my body to find the areas I wanted to work on most.

After thinking about what my goals would be, I decided that having the perfect Beach Body is what I wanted. I knew it would be a lot of work and that I would have to struggle through the hard times to reach the goals I set for myself. I am sure I can do it though as I have a lot of willpower and some aces up my sleeve.

One thing I was interested in was the Extreme Body Workout. I thought I could handle it and that it would be a quick way to get in shape. I guess time will tell but for now, it will have to do. I believe it’s time to get out from behind this computer and to start getting in shape. This is a guest post provided by Fitness Alliance.

Naps

One thing that I have recently started doing is taking naps. I guess I must be getting older and I have really been getting tired in the afternoon. The problem is that there is so much noise in our neighborhood that it is hard to get any rest.

There are kids playing in the street and yelling. We also have a pond out back that invites the noises of ducks and geese. Believe me when I say they can be very loud. We also have jets and airplanes overhead. It all adds up to one very tired person.

Economic theory

President Obama has unveiled his new plan for the coming years. He has maintained that the need to serve the poor while taxing the rich is the right way to go. His latest plan includes tax hikes on the wealthy while keeping programs for the poor and those who need medical care going.

Many republicans have already opposed the plan calling it bad for the economy. They want tax cuts instead of tax hikes. Either way, the government still owes trillions of dollars to foreign countries. I guess we will have to see how this turns out.

Safe driving

With the advent of the cell phone, millions of Americans are using them. The problem is that many Americans are endangering others by driving while texting or being on the phone while driving. There are some laws in some states to prevent this, but they are difficult to enforce.

A new study shows that use of a cell phone while driving dramatically increases the chances of an accident. I think that further education on the matter will help prevent the problem and save lives.

Staying slim and fit

One thing we love to do around our house is to eat. It seems that every time I go into the kitchen, somebody is cooking something up. While it seems a good idea at the time, I have found that we are all eating too much. The problem is that this leads to my families overall weight problem. Everyone in our family has always been on the heavy side and it’s a constant battle to stay slim.

Luckily, there is a solution to this problem. There is a product called Herbalife that can help you shed the extra pounds that are put on. There are many other extra benefits to this product as well. It can help you increase your energy levels as well as help reduce the stress that comes with daily life. I have tried this product and have been very happy with it.

The answer to this type of problem is simple. All you have to do is to find your local Herbalife Distributor. The good news is that there are Herbalife Distributors all over the country so it’s easy to find one near you. I really believe that taking care of your body is a key to a happy healthy life. I believe that everyone should consider giving this product a try.

Old Band Aids

Looking around the house for a band aid is so annoying. I almost never need a band aid, but when I do need one it seems there are never any in the house. I have looked in the medicine cabinet in the bathroom, in the hall closet and in the kitchen.

Finally I found a first aid kit in the trunk of my car and it had some really old band aids in it. So the interesting thing about an old band aid is that adhesive must get stronger as it ages, because this band aid is stuck on there and its not letting go without a fight.

Help With Breathing

I remember when I was just a kid and my Aunt Rose brought all her kids over to our house for a weekend visit. I don’t know what was really going on in the adult world, but that was unusual to have all of them come over and spend the night. My and brother and I had to give up our bedroom so Aunt Rose could have our bed. Us kids all slept in the living room. Mom had kids lined up all across the living room floor, everyone in a sleeping bag, like Army barracks without the cots.

I remember my youngest cousin was still in diapers and he was toddling around with a runny nose and coughing a lot. My mom called him, “our Booger Baby.” But that night he had to sleep with my Aunt Rose so they could use a Vaporizer to help him breathe.

Sick babies are stressful on everyone. The babies can’t talk and tell you what i wrong with them, so you hook up Vaporizers and take their temperature and give them stuff to reduce fever. And if the fever gets worse, you take them to the pediatrician.

I was reminded of all that when I saw a Volcano Vaporizer and memories of that weekend with my sick Booger Baby cousin came rushing to my mind. Of course, he is OK now, and I wonder if he even remembers any of that.

Smokey Austin

Remember how I said that most of Texas is having problems with wildfires? Well, it turns out that my high school buddy, who lives in Austin, is having problems with this exact thing. He works for Dell computers, which is in the Austin area. Actually, it is up in Round Rock, but that’s part of Austin. And the smoke from the fires is causing problems for everyone – besides the threat of having your house or ranch or business torched to the ground.

A really big problem  for homeowners and landlords is cleanup after a fire or dealing with smoke damage. Smoke gets on everything – even dishes and food stored inside kitchen cabinets. It covers the walls, the ceiling, light fixtures, curtains and gets in carpet really bad. He’s going to have to get to come out and help clean up his house after the fires are put out for good.

He says th smoke damage is so bad that he can’t even sleep in his own home. He had to go get a motel room for a couple of night. Now, that is really bad if you can’t even sleep in your own house. If it were me, I think I’d take a week off and go somewhere else. But he says that he can’t take off any time right now because its the start of the second quarter and they have to make their numbers. When its safe to go back home, he’ll get Carpet Cleaning Round Rock to come get his carpets cleaned while he scrubs the rest of the house with Dawn dishwashing detergent to get rid of the smoke film.

Spring Fever

I don’t know about where you live, but around here it’s been a long and cold winter. That’s why I was so excited when t he weather finally seems to be turning. Yesterday was very nice and today is even better. I spent the better part of the morning outside just enjoying the sunshine.

I have been waiting to get out of the house for a long time. I like doing many things indoors, but it’s really nice to get out and enjoy our earth. I am sure the worst of the winter is over and we will all be basking in the sun!
