I Had Better Get Them Now

My husband and I want to go on another cruise. We just haven't decided whether or not we are going to take the kids! I would like to but at the same time I also would not like to! Does that sound bad?? LOL

First things first, we each need a passport. In 2006 we didn't need one but I am pretty sure that we are going to need them now since all the laws and policies have changed since then. We don't need any drama trying to get on the boat. We haven't yet decided where we want to go, me personally, I would rather go to a resort. There is enough to do on a boat when you are out at sea but I would like to try something different. I hope my husband will be on the same wave length as me, he can be a baby when he doesn't get his way! LOL...I don't really want to hear him whine so a cruise it may be!

Dumb car..

The car doesn't know it yet but if it keeps doing stupid stuff I am going to take it apart and sell the car parts off of it! Oh well, we are moving soon and I will only be 3 miles from work. I guess I could drive the SUV again. Poor thing has been in the garage for about 3 weeks now.

Actually I should walk to work. God knows that Weight Watcher's flew out the window...again! There is just sooo much going on, Ebay, trying to blog and getting ready to move. UGH!

I Am A Slacker

I confess, I have been slacking here at A Day In The Zone. But I don't need to tell you guys that! Between Ebay, moving and my overbearing boss there just doesn't seem like there is enough time in a day. So I have decided that I must drop something from my daily list but what do I drop?? How about my boss..LOL, yeah right! No really, I am not going to drop anything. I just need to learn to manage my time a little better. I know, I have said it before, I will get back into blogging. Well I have been here 2 days in a row. That's a start!

Unfortunately I have to go and do a couple of things. I have to check up on my grandfather who fell down a flight of stairs in Paris..LOL. It's not funny, but if you knew my grandfather then you would understand. I hope my grandparents had some sort of travel health insurance. But I will be around later to update my outdated template!

Oh No Mom

So my son is at the age now where he is starting to get pimples. He is not very happy about that but as I told him some people get them some don't. So I have been on the look out for a natural acne treatment or something gentle on the skin. I have very sensitive skin and I tend to be overly cautious about what I buy. I don't want to use harsh chemicals on my face and certainly don't want that for my son either! Please let me know if you know of something. My skin is extremely dry and I very rarely get a pimple. I am really quite clueless about that kind of stuff, my concern is finding a good moisturizer!

We'll Make Do

I am so ready for a vacation and I would love to go some where nice. Summer is here and my actual vacation is in August. I think we are going to stick to day trips this year. Looking into anything else and especially something like North Padre Island rentals totally out of the question! Although maybe someday it could be possible, you never know.

I would much rather do day trips, that way I am in control of whet I eat and where! Nothing worse than going somewhere and having nothing but crap to eat. People may know you are trying to lose weight but they still seem to shove the crap in your face! I plan on being in control of what food I put in my mouth this year. So there!

So Like Everything Else

the grocery bill has gone up too. I was talking with my mom yesterday after I went grocery shopping and had to go back AGAIN for cat supplies! She told me that her and my dad have started a small garden. I think it is pretty cool but that just tells me how bad things are getting. My mom did get her full time job back, which I am sooo happy about but I think the idea that this guy's business will fold is still on the top of everyones head.

My parent's haven't had a garden since I was a kid! They did that so my mom could stay home with me and my brother and force us into child slave labor! Just kidding about the child slave labor. I never thought they would have another and especially a 50 some odd years old. Quite frankly though, you need to do what you need to do to survive and cut costs. I wish I had a spot for a garden!

Cookouts

It seems like every weekend a call comes in and someone is having a cookout. They are great social activities although I could take it or leave it but the certainly don't help the weight loss efforts. My husband and our friends could have cookouts everyday if you let them. There has to be a limit though as far as I am concerned! 2 or 3 times a week and 3 times is pushing it. I can only eat so much salad and fruit myself. I do eat the meat but when your only option is hot dogs and hamburgers from a box, well let's just say that it gets old pretty quick! I guess it is the fun of summer!

I want one!!

I want one of those shower chairs !! Not because I need it, but because some times I stand in the shower wasting water after I am done doing what I need to do. YES, I am guilty of that, I just don't liked to be rushed on some days. Like today, I was late for work, because I goofed off on EBAY longer than I should have, got in the shower late and stood there to long. Then I got ready for work, packed up my lunch (that takes a long time too). I did this all as if I had plenty of time to spare! I actually had none.

You know what it is, I just can't stand going to work anymore!

Have You Heard Of This..

The this I am referring to is called Orovo. I personally thought it was some kind of vacuum cleaner or machine of some sort. Apparently not, Orovo is actually another, yes another, weight loss aid. It comes in the form of a pill and apparently you can make money selling it at the same time. From the looks of it they sell more than diet pills but quite honestly, it is not the type of business I want to get involved with. I don't think I could sell something that could potentially hurt someone. Besides is the old fashion way of losing weight the best way??



With that said, if it sounds interesting to you go ahead and check it out.
