Top SEVEN List - Fabulous Fridays!

Top Seven Tips, one for each day of the week; I know, I'm just that DAMN nice :)




1) Get active; do something actively fun; participate in THE RUSH. And...



Yes, "that" does counts too ;-P


Actively fun stuff: spin class, aerobic class, the gym, a walk, a run, skating, skiing, snowboarding, sledding, lifting weights, swimming, ... just to name a few!



Get moving, a little each day. Begin with small goals, walking a pet, taking a stroll with a friend, simple really. Shake what your mama gave ya :)

2)Remember it is hard; life that is. However, you're never given anything YOU can't handle. SUCK IT UP PRINCESS!


3)DRINK WATER; as mentioned before! It's THAT important!


4)Be a positive role model. Would you be friends with you? Lighten up, be the sunshine for others!


5) Don't be too hard on yourself. People you encounter daily can do that draining thing to you; don't let you - do that to you! If you don't make it to the gym, IT IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD! If you decide to consume an entire bag of cookies, NO ONE WILL DIE! Just make certain you don't choose to form a habit - learn from your oopsies!


6) PUT "IT" DOWN, NOW! Yes, NOW! Not Monday ;) Eating right doesn't begin...tomorrow, Monday, after the holidays, etc. Eating smart begins with TODAY, NOW, THIS SECOND! Stop putting off what you can control immediately.


7) Express your thoughts. In a journal, to a friend, a medical person, your pet, whomever. Work through your ideas, set a goal for the week, think about something important for 2 minutes a day, conquer a negative memory... Living healthy begins with your melon people. Strengthen that noodle!



Celebrate, have fun and don't get caught - have a wonderful weekend!!!!

All That Jazz...


I was interviewed yesterday.


Why? I asked this same question to myself...


"But, why me? What did I do, really? Are they certain they want me? Is this a mistake? Can I? Do I wanna? Oh boy, what have I gotten myself into?"

And the questions increased as the day progressed inching up to 'THE INTERVIEW'.


Then I rambled, a lot. I went on and on and on not sure whether I even answered her queries efficiently. Or at all :) That's me. AND THAT'S WHEN I KNEW WHY - I was being interviewed because, I'm a goddess.


I know, I know *holding up my hand* I need medication. Seriously though, I am goddess like.

Goddesses come in all shapes, sizes, from all different backgrounds, they come in a variety of colours with all types of experiences and lifestyles.


So today is a NEW provincial celebration day, it's GODDESS DAY!


Know a goddess, appreciate her, love her, see her in all her entirety for being a wonderful person. Vocalize to her how much she means to you and how special you find her. Even us goddesses need to hear that every once and a while, yanno ;)


Over and out, be kind - rewind, and all that jazz...

I AM AN ADDICT!

NOTE: Title for this SHOULD be "SPANK"!

I have never played scrabble as a child, teen or adult. UNTIL NOW! And frankly I LOVE THIS GAME, well, a version of this game. It's on facebook, it's named "Scrabulous"...

So, this is what it feels like being a nerd, finally, at 37. Not bad really :)

Just sharing a moment, now I'm done.

Git, go, be gone.. go have some fun!

SHAZAM!

Commercial Break!

A woman in her fifties went to a plastic surgeon for a face lift.

The surgeon told her about a new procedure called "The Knob" where a small knob is placed on the top of a woman's head and can be turned to tighten up her skin to produce the effect of a brand new face lift. Of course the woman wanted "The Knob".

Over the course of the years, the woman tightened the knob and the effects were wonderful. The woman remained young looking and vibrant.

After fifteen years, the woman returned to the surgeon with two problems."All of these years, everything has been working just fine. I have turned the knob many times and have been very pleased with the results. But now,I've developed two annoying problems: First, I have these terrible bags under my eyes and the knob won't get rid of them."

The doctor looked at her closely and said, "Those aren't bags, those are your breasts."

She said, "Well, I guess there's no point in asking about the goatee."


Now, back to your regular scheduled programming...

Oh My - Slim Fast Look OUT!



Shake it for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

*laughing*...

Nice try guys!

PS. Remember to click on my title for yet another disturbing snapshot!

Everyone's Doing it!



Just remember to have fun ;)

*evil smirk*....

Muhahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Top SEVEN List

LUMINATE YOUR LIFE!


1)
Be happy. Pretend if you have to. It won't last long, soon you will be as happy as you faked being. Be happy dammit!


2)
Drink a shit load of water. It flushes out, purifies, sheds excess, and plumps up wrinkles. Yea, it can be a chore to do, however it does benefit you!


3)
Don't eat past 7pm. THIS IS FREAKING DIFFICULT! Near impossible, I KNOW. I also am reminded of when I chose to do this for TWO LONG MONTHS - 20 pounds lost. Just by not eating after 7pm. Crazy, but true.


4) Eat lots of fibre. Cleansing, it's a good thing :-P


5) Have a small reward each day. Why? Cos you made it through yet another day? Isn't that enough? Sheesh... the size of your fist in potato chips, cookies, ice cream, sweet baby carrots, whatever. YOU DO DESERVE IT.


6) Control your portions. A small plate is sufficient.


7) Eat small aka: reasonable meals/snacks, six of them through out your day. Begin with waking up, end at 7pm.

Repeat as needed, daily :)

TADA!

Muscle Overexertion - Aaaaaaaah!

Enlightenment Your Way....


Night leg cramps: What causes them?

Mayo Clinic physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist Edward Laskowski, M.D., and colleagues answer select questions from readers.

Answer:
A muscle cramp is an involuntary, sustained tightening (contraction) of one or more of your muscles. It can result in intense pain and an inability to use the affected muscles. Night leg cramps are contractions of the leg muscles, usually in the back of the lower leg (calf). They often occur just as you're falling asleep or just as you're waking up.

The exact cause of night leg cramps isn't known. Some experts believe they may be due to abnormal processing of electrolytes — essential elements and chemical substances your body needs for basic functions — by muscles. Almost everyone has occasional leg cramps. But they occur most often in older adults. Common causes of night leg cramps include:

Muscle overexertion
Prolonged sitting
Dehydration
Pregnancy
Diabetes
Decreased potassium levels
Neuromuscular disorders, such as Parkinson's disease
Certain medications, such as albuterol, niacin, diuretics, and some calcium channel blockers and antipsychotic medications
Alcohol use


If you do get a leg cramp, you may be able to make it go away by:
Walking on the affected leg
Massaging the affected muscle
Straightening your leg and flexing your foot toward your knee until you feel the calf muscles stretch
Applying a cold pack to the affected muscle
Taking a hot bath


To help prevent night leg cramps:
Drink plenty of fluids during the day.
Stretch your leg muscles before bedtime.
Get adequate potassium in your diet.
If you have frequent and severe leg cramps at night, talk to your doctor. Treatment results vary.


But the most effective treatments based on current research are:
Vitamin B-12
Gabapentin


Night leg cramps should be distinguished from another common cause of night leg discomfort called restless legs syndrome, a condition in which your legs have a creepy, crawly or fidgety sensation unless you move them. The sensation often worsens as night approaches. Restless legs syndrome is a neurologic condition that requires different treatment from that of night leg cramps.


Deep breath, now go back to drooling or whatever else floats your boat ;)

Just Because I Can!

Just because he is... Wonderful!

Just because I can... Trust his opinion.

Just because he... Truly loves me.

Just because I am... Neurotic!

*****************

I asked my (place an adjective here that means wonderful-honest-excellent-beautiful-sweet-funny-wise-fabulous-motivating-truthful-etc.)husband, "What colour should I colour my hair this time? Look at the roots, I have grey hairs! I dunno about the black anymore. And blonde, it's so harsh.. I'm getting older!"

His genuine response, "Ummm, how about dirty blonde with some grey flecks?!"

I then looked up, smirked and exclaimed, "THAT'S MY NATURAL COLOUR!"

He smiled knowingly.

He stated matter of factly, "I have never found an attractive woman with grey hair, less attractive. You're beautiful."

********************

That's yet another reason why I love my husband! And I won't bother him with the trivial, aka: my hair colour choice :) much, any more.

********************

I'm thinking of pulling some more blonde through.. getting ready for the summer months at the beach. Blonde just "goes" with summer, don't cha think? ;)

Sooooo...

So, I signed up for this writing class. Now, surprisingly, I don't feel much like putting anything down in script. *shrugs* Oh well. I am enjoying the class very much so. The people are quite different from whom I would "choose" to hang with. Lovely, interesting, wise and talented they are. *laughing to self* I didn't mean it like that. Okay, my hugging, generous, kind, loving, intelligent, witty, artisitic, full of passion friends hold all those characteristics too... I guess I am simply trying to say these fellow students are a different breath of air. And that's good. We need to bring different qualities to life's experiences. Seeing things individually, expressing your view in a group setting, and accepting other's opinions. It's all berry, berry, cool-a-tastic!

Okay, so spell check is still broken or not set up, or something.

My bold won't work, again.

Larger print option - nada.

Colours are of a distant past.

WHAT THE HELL IS BLOGGER COMING TO?

The end :)

TADA - WW - Woooooooooooooooooooooooooshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Fabulously Blonde!




A highway patrolman pulled alongside a speeding car on the freeway. Glancing at the car, he was astounded to see that the blonde behind the wheel was knitting!

Realizing that she was oblivious to his flashing lights and siren, the trooper cranked down his window, turned on his bullhorn and yelled, "PULL OVER!"

"NO!" the blonde yelled back, "IT'S A SCARF!"




Gentlemen Prefer Blondes



Smart Blondes

A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from LA to NY. The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game?The blonde, tired, just wants to take a nap, politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists and explains that the game is easy and a lot of fun. He explains, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5.00, and vise versa." Again, she declines and tries to get some sleep. The lawyer, now agitated, says, "Okay, if you don't know the answer you pay me $5.00, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500.00." This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring there will be no end to this torment unless she plays, agrees to the game. The lawyer asks the first question. "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?" The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her purse, pulls out a $5.00 bill and hands it to the lawyer. Okay says the lawyer, your turn. She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four legs?" The lawyer, puzzled, takes out his laptop computer and searches all his references, no answer. He taps into the air phone with his modem and searches the net and the library of congress, no answer. Frustrated, he sends e-mails to all his friends and coworker, to no avail. After an hour, he wakes the blonde, and hands her $500. The blonde says, "Thank you", and turns back to get some more sleep. The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed, wakes the blonde and asks, "Well, what's the answer?" Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5.00, and goes back to sleep.

The Day the Penis asked for a Raise!

I, the Penis, hereby request a raise in salary for the following reasons:

I do physical labour.

I work at great depths.

I plunge headfirst into everything I do.

I do not get weekends or public holidays off.

I work in a damp environment.

I work in a dark workplace that has poor ventilation.

I work in high temperatures.

My work exposes me to contagious diseases.

Sincerely,
P. Niss



The Response:

Dear P. Niss,

After assessing your request, and considering the arguments you have raised,the administration rejects your request for the following reasons:

You do not work 8 hours straight.

You fall asleep after brief work periods.

You do not always follow the orders of the management team.

You do not stay in your designated area and are often seen visiting other locations.

You do not take initiative - you need to be pressured and stimulated in order to start working.

You leave the workplace rather messy at the end of your shift.

You don't always observe necessary safety regulations, such as wearing the correct protective clothing.

You will retire well before you are 65.

You are unable to work double shifts.

You sometimes leave your designated work area before you have completed your assigned task.

And if that were not all, you have been seen constantly entering and exiting the workplace carrying two suspicious-looking bags.

Sincerely,
V. Gina

Thick, White, Creamy, Liquid...



"Royal jelly is an extremely nutritious, thick, milky-white creamy liquid secreted by the hypopharryngeal glands of the nurse bees. Queen bees live exclusively on royal jelly and it accounts for their incredible size, fertility, and longevity."

Well, since I'm a goddess, I ponder the benefits this supplement could possess for me...


UPDATE: This supplement does nothing for a migraine! Not that it claimed to, just hoped it would, it might... sigh.

Just so that you know...

I have devised a clever (yeah, I say it is, alright?!) way of sliding in odd/fun/sexy/non appropriate pictures, captions, etc... It's been going on for a while now. AND it makes me smile! La, la, la...

Be sure you ALWAYS click on the "Title". If you dare ;-)

Pick me, pick me, pick me!

Monday Bliss...



A Monday Poem



Work

I do not "work"
Instead, I "fun"
I try to goof
And get things done

At the same time
Love what I do
Do what I love
And then can you

Honestly say
You do not work
You simply fun
And do not shirk
Until it's done

The object then
Midst all this strife
Is not to work
A day in life

For if you love
That which you do
It is not work

Now
I am through
