LIST IT!....5 things I CAN live without and 5 I CAN'T live without

What I CAN live without?

  1. TV I turn my TV off during the summer and I don't even really miss it. Confession I still hit up Music Man's house about once a week to finish the winter seasons of shows that I'm hopelessly addicted to: The Following, Nashville and Big Bang Theory.
  2. MILK - I'm not sure how I do this and I don't want to do it forever, but I've impressed even myself that I was able to stop drinking milk in order to work towards my weight loss goals. Someday soon, this one is going to make it's way back to the CAN'T live without list.
  3. INTERNET - Sure it makes me a terrible blogger, but I've kept so busy I haven't really noticed that I don't have internet at home....blog readers however are a different story. And of course I have internet at work....so its not like I quit cold turkey.
  4. BLUE-RAY - I don't even really know what is so great about it (or what it is), although everyone tells me I just need it. Case in point, someone brings over a RedBox in blue-ray....I can't even play it at my house; however, if you have a VHS, bring it on over....I got that handled!
  5. DIGGING DOGS - My new neighbor's dog likes to dig....under my fence and into my yard. That just won't do if I'm going to spend some hard earned cash to landscape my back yard. I'm gonna go back to my roots and get him  with a pellet gun and/or electric fence. I think he can be trained.
What I CAN'T live without?
  1. MY FITNESS PAL - It helps me stay on track with my eating, something I still struggle with nearly everyday and summer makes it so much worse. Beers and burgers are calling my name.
  2. OVERSIZED ICE PACKS - I love, love, love this oversized ice pack. I discovered them at physical therapy and then ordered one of my own. A little pricy and worth every penny.
  3. IPOD - I find myself listening to my Ipod all the time...work...working out...hanging out at the house...in the car. 
  4. FACEBOOK FITNESS GROUP - This is a group of girls spread all over the place and mentored by Farm Girl Fitness, my Beachbody coach. They hold me accountable, keep me motivated and are so supportive. I really look forward to logging on each day to see what they accomplished, what they struggled with and share my accomplishments and struggles. It really is easier when you have people in your corner.
  5. AMAZON - I'd be a rich woman if this website didn't exist. I'm pretty sure that if I can't find it on Amazon, it doesn't exist!

Oh How Pinteresting - yard ideas

Well I wanted to link up today....ya know go back to this blogging thing in full force....BBBUUUUUTTTTTT it seems that this link up is no longer. I'm getting old. I've been gone too long. Who knows, but since its my blog and I'll do what I want, I will pretend there is still a link up and I'm linking....I'm linking....I'm linking. My new house has a backyard that looks like this. Well, that's a bummer. So before the papers were even signed, I was pinning away. This is what it should resemble when I someone I hire gets done with it! Landscaping just really isn't my forte. And of course mine will be a scaled down version of this because I'm a cheapskate. But my plans do include splurging for the hot tub.

WILW: laugh 'til it hurts

[Linking up with Jamie for What I'm Loving Wednesday] A few years back, OKTrailerPark Friend and Snowboard Friend and I went to Canyons in Utah for a girls weekend. We had a slope side condo, reduced price lift tickets, wine and the resort swimming pool. Now when we vacation we do it up right. We snowboarded and rode the alpine slide by day and by night we soaked in the pool, wore sweatpants, cooked dinner in our condo, played cards, drank wine and watched this YouTube video....over and over and over and over. the.best.ab.workout.ever. Whenever I'm having a sub-par day, I pull this video out. I mean I do have it favorited on my work computer even! If this video doesn't make you laugh, go to the emergency room NOW! Here is a little note from Ed and Ross's mom, who posted the video. As you can read Ed and Ross were best friends! PLEASE NOTE..... THESE CLIPS WERE TAKEN OVER A PERIOD OF 18 MONTHS.... ED WAS A VERY GOOD BOY MOST OF THE TIME.... I HAVE HOURS

Painting with a twist

Image
I've seen several of my friends post pictures from their adventures of painting at various bachelorette parties and bridal showers. I was amazed that I don't have one single friend who isn't an accomplished artist! When Colorado Transplant Friend told me about the Arts Council's plan to bring Painting with a Twist to Green River I said to count me in! They chose Starry Tree for our masterpiece. When i showed up I was very disappointed to see a blank canvas staring back at me......and I mean blank! What the crap?! Where is my paint by number.....mine will never look like the "example" Here you can see the progression of my masterpiece....I think the most important thing is to finish the step and then put down the paint brush....anything I tried to "fix" yeah, that wasn't a good idea! On the left is the "professional painting" on the right is "the most professional painting" (that is mine in case you are confuse
