Off to a good start Off to a good start

I finished my first day of Weight Watchers with points leftover,  and even resisted the urge to spend those leftovers on a piece of cheesecake! Yeah, I had enough, but didn’t feel like I HAD to have it. The 30-Day Shred is BRUTAL. I think Jillian Michaels... [Read more]

A Piece of My Childhood Has Died A Piece of My Childhood Has Died

I was somewhat surprised that he died, but wouldn’t call it shocked. The man had a rough life, no matter how much money he once had. I will... [Read more]
