Go-Arounds

It’s been a rough week with the girls. I’ve had some go-arounds with them, and have been disappointed in them as well.

Schoolwork, or more accurately homework has been one of the go-arounds this week. The tv or playing is so much more interesting than homework, or at least so they think. I try to stay on the sidelines when it comes to certain things….Like a math test I knew was coming up today, and acouple of times this past week I asked if she was ready for this test, she said “yes” although I knew she hadn’t committed a lot of time to studying. Turns out she wasn’t quite as ready as she said….so, out comes Mom from the sidelines.

I used one test as an example, but there have been other instances with both of them. Needless to say they aren’t exactly happy that I’ve come off the sidelines, but as soon as I see them turning things around again, I will slide back a bit. Education and good grades, but they need to realize that themselves, not always have me hanging over their shoulder’s.

Lingerie

Here I’ve been sitting for days, thinking of what I’d like to get my family for Christmas. I was thinking about what to get my Mom for Christmas. I find buying something for her is difficult. I mean she’s Mom, she’s happy with anything we give her, but I want to give her something that she REALLY likes.

I was thinking about lingerie….*LOL* She loves fancy lingerie, but somehow I don’t see me giving it to her for Christmas. *LOL*…Maybe I’ll just get her a gift card.

Fat Burner

It seems that fat burners, diet supplements, and other weight loss programs come out at the same time that Christmas decorations do.

Really what is the obsession people have with their weight?? Okay, yes I want to look good too, but I’m not obsessed about it. I don’t count calories, or fat content. I’m not a vegatarian, or a vegan….I still drink soda, I still eat candy, cakes and other desserts. I mean really to me it’s just a matter of exercise and moderating the amount of things that I eat.

Diet Supplement Reviews

Reading diet supplement reviews can be helpful. Of course I think that reading reviews about anything can be helpful.

After reading reviews I decided which camera I want to buy. I did the same with the bikes that I want to buy the girls for Christmas. Hearing other people’s feedback on the same products that I’m considering buying, help me to decide if it is truly the one I want.
