Media Monday's

I'm linking up with Women Living Well with her Media Monday's. I know it's Tuesday but I just read her post from yesterday as well as one from Raising Mighty Arrows who is also linking up.


I don't know about most of you fellow bloggers but for me the computer and TV can be a great way to escape and most days for much longer that I ever plan on. Then there is also the mighty Blackberry that lets me know every email, facebook, twitter, text message that I get and I can get lost in that not to mention the endless apps and games that are available.


For the next 8 weeks I'm going to long my  hours that I'm on the computer. I'm going to first see how many hours I spend on it and then I'm going to put limits and restrictions on it. Having a business that is online can often get me distracted and even give me an excuse to be online. I have to keep working on things if I'm going to sell it to anyone else. They need to see what I'm doing but I need to change that to making sure it is healthy for myself and family.


So today I have been on here way to much. I'm going to finish this and then I'm turning my phone on silent (not off just in case the hubs needs to get a hold of me) and I'm going to go read the Bible and have my quiet time with the Lord while Rex is sleeping. Then I think we will head outside to the park after he is up so we can get some of that great Vitamin D and social interactions that require actually talking not just typing!


If you are interested in doing Media Monday's head over to Women Living Well and grab the button and link up and take the channel to look and see if media is affecting you family or your quiet time with God.

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

Week #2 on THM

Well it's officially the end of week 2 on Trim Healthy Mama! I have tried some more new recipes from the book and from pinterest and I'm having so much fun with it. I also order some xylitol online to save money. I didn't realize how much sweetener I would be using but when you can make sweets for any meal or snack through out the day you can use quite a bit. Favorite Meals this week E pancakes from the book! Yum! I added in frozen berries to them while cooking and they were great and the boys loved them too. They got to have the added whipped cream or syrup on theirs. Fat Stripping Frappa! OMGOSH! This is going to be my go to summer morning drink! I can see myself making one of these up first thing in the morning to get my day going and then enjoying a yummy breakfast 3 hours later. Soon as warm weather hits Hubby's schedule will be packed full daily so my mornings will start early, like 5am early! So having a breakfast at 8:30 will be perfect timing! Cheese ...
