REVIEW AND GIVEAWAY – Rubbermaid Bento Storage Containers
Are you organized? I am very organized at work, and on the computer. But around the house where I don’t have a lot of room? Not so much. I don’t have enough dedicated storage space in the house so things end up sitting right out in the open. Yuck! Recently I learned about a new [...]
Wordless Wednesday – Sleeping On His Back

La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre SkinMedica Giveaway
People like to feel good about themselves. Some choose to enhance their appearance with the help of a physician. Over the years I’ve heard and personally spoken with professionals (including physicians) who were quick to only recommend one solution to a problem. I remember a time years ago when some ob/gyns would only do a [...]
Wordless Wednesday – How Much Is That Two Headed Cat In The Window?
The other day I glanced over towards the picture window in the living room and saw a giant ball of fur that appeared. At first I thought it looked like it had two heads. Sure;y my eyes were deceiving me! Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Jules, on top of Romeo – both [...]

NAIC Health Insurance Tips – With Heart Monitor Giveaway
Health insurance is something we all ideally should have. Getting seriously ill is stressful enough, emotionally and financially, without having to add on the worries of how to pay for medical care. Had I not had health insurance earlier this year when I underwent major surgery we’d be looking at a lifetime of debt. Now [...]
