I Want To Ride My Bicycle...

Don't worry, I am not going to belt out the song! You would have to cover your ears anyhow to protect them from the awful shrieking!

Actually what made me think about it was, I was just reading this brief bio about a guy who wanted his own beach bicycle, so he bought a whole container of bikes from China and now the rest is history! Want one of your own cruiser bikes ? Then check out the website by clicking cruiser bikes, you can click either one actually.

Just so you all know, I haven't ridden a bike since I was about 12 years old. Well, not one that actually moves, I do ride the stationary one at the gym, although I am not a fan of it. The last time I rode a bike (I remember like it was yesterday) I was on my way home and I pulled in to the driveway, we had one of those driveways the started at one side of the house, went around the back of the house and dumped you back on the rode just on the other side of the house, if that makes any sense!? Ok, like a big U...Now back to my story.. I am coming around the house and my dog was outside, apparently very happy to see me. He ran right in front of me, I slammed on my brakes and went right over the handle bars. I smashed my head on the ground but I was ok. A little shaken, with a huge bump on my head and a few scratches on my face, I vowed to never ride a bike again... not even one of those beach cruiser bikes....

I like this one...blue..

Still Here

I am still here! There has been a lot going on at home with my son. For 2 weeks it has been non stop drama and I think it is finally settling down! It is very hard to keep focused on things when he is having drama. At times I wish my brain was like computer memory just delete and free up space. Unfortunately it doesn't work that way. That would be to easy!

I will be back tomorrow with regular posts and blog visits. I hope everyone is well, Happy Mothers Day to all you moms out there and I hope you have a great day! See you all tomorrow, I need to go and call my mom now.

Did I Lose?

Well today is another weigh in day! Time to get back on the scale to see if there has been any progress! I think I did ok..although I did eat out on Thursday, I hade Long John Silver's. You think fried fish is ok?! LOL..It was only one baadd meal and I did make sure I walked that night, last night and I took a walk this morning as well! We'll see!

After my weigh in I need to go look for some cat furniture , my cat's think my new furniture is their personal jungle gym! I think not! After that, I have some party planning to do for my not so little boy's 13th birthday party. His birthday is actually tomorrow, but his party will be a week from today.

My mom started this weird b-day tradition. She was born on Feb. 5th, I was born on Feb. 5th and my son was expected to be born on Feb. 5th but he decided being in my belly was a much better place. So he made his arrival on Feb 10th. Feb. 10th just happens to be my parent's Wedding Anniversary!

Oh well..all family traditions can't be the same!

Let's Make Life Simple

Does your life feel cluttered? Papers and bills piled up all over the place? Are there things that could be more organized but aren't?

If you work in a cluttered work area you could spend up to a half an hour a day looking or things, ultimatley wasting time. Time that adds up to a month and a half of lost time over the course of a year! Check out these tips to help get better organized and clear out clutter.

• Subscribed to any magazines? How many do you actually read? Cancel the ones you don't read or read thoroughly. Saves clutter and money!
• Paying bills - Set up automatic payments. I am a big believer in that and my bills are never late!
• Saying no is okay. If there is something you just don't have the time to do, don't feel obligated to do it.
• Clean out your wallet or purse. If you have credit cards and don't use them, take them out. Get rid of any other items you don't use as well.
• If you have debt, consolidate it. One convenient payment is much better than making several payments to different companies. Saves time and money.
