Anytime Fitness - Biggest Loser Challenge 2012

I belong to Anytime Fitness and I actually love the one I am going to now.  The manager, Jessi, is awesome and very encouraging!  Each year they have a "Biggest Loser Challenge".  This year it is running right along with the current season's theme "No Excuses", which I love.  Everyone has excuses and you just have to change them slowly but surely.  >>Read More at Reshaping My Reality

Football Legend of Penn State -Joe Paterno dies at 85



Good or bad, right or wrong - this man was a great football coach for over 60 years at Penn State.  He did not speak up about issues he had knowledge of, but he was still human.  This ordeal made his last 2 1/2 months of life miserable.

Sound the Alarm! Firehouse Subs Sparks My Interest

Recently I have had a strong boycott going against a major Sub Franchise...which shall remain unnamed (simply because I don't want any of their advertisements linked to my blog).

30 Day Experiments

Today I am going to embark on a 30 day experiment of 3 different products:

1. Affinity's Real Water
2. L'Oreal Go 360 Clean
3. Mane & Tail Shampoo/Conditioner

Two years ago I moved to Carthage, TX.  Since moving here I have developed several conditions due to our well water being contaminated.

I have never been a girly, girl...but I do appreciate my skin, hair and nails...all of which have been affected due to semi-poor diet and bacteria filled well water.

It took me 30 years, but now after having Chronic Asthma since the day I was born and recently developing Chronic Cystitis (recurring severe bladder infections), I appreciate my "health" more and I am trying to eat, drink and live a better life.

Soooo...onward I go for the next 30 days seeking improvement in my skin, hair and diet.

42 years ago, exactly to date...The United States became the Leader of Space Exploration after President Kennedy challenged America to be the FIRST to walk on the Moon. July 21, 1969 - Neil Armstrong walked on the moon as the American people were watching in amazement from living rooms across the country. As he stepped off the Lunar Module and placed his boot in the surface, he said those famous words "That's one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind."
