I don’t talk about my dog Max that often. But honestly it is fair to say I adore him. Max is a member of our family, and I jokingly refer to him as the nanny. He is always with my children when they go outside to play. I trust him in making sure no one comes into our yard that is not meant to be there. He is so loyal to our family, I could not ask for a better dog. Because he means so much to us, I am always shopping for the highest quality pet supplies. I want to make sure he is with us for the long time. He is such a great dog, everyone should have a German Shepherd just like him.

Never, never, never did I have an acne problem when I was young. I thought that guaranteed me clear skin for life. Ahh, but life is cruel. Shortly after giving birth to my son I became susceptible to break-outs. Even, now I have yet to get it entirely under control. For sometime now, I have been researching in hopes of finding a natural acne treatment. My skin is incredibly sensitive and often store bought products leave my skin raw and irritated. Anyone have any suggestions? What has worked for you? I’m all ears…

It’s been years since I have purchased what anyone might consider to be hot lingerie . My life had taken a turn from satin and silk to good old home grown cotton, and I rarely look back with regret- rarely I say. On occasion I think to myself, ‘wouldn’t a corset be fun?’ Then I remind myself perhaps not so much- I don’t know that it was all that fun way back when. Although I wouldn’t mind knowing I could actually fit into one. I guess it’s one more reason to stick to the treadmill.

Privacy seems to be a long lost privilege these days. More and more employers are opting to keep an eye on their employees by means of computer software and even gps tracking devices. While I appreciate the need to keep a watchful eye on the bottom line, it would be nice to have a little freedom by way of trust. Why do I even bring this up? Last week I had a job interview for an account manager position for a local manufacturer. They went the extra mile stressing the various means they employ to make certain employees are being as productive as possible. I could not help but feel ill at ease. Who wants to work for a company who spends their days and nights thinking up new ways to monitor their employees?

Excuse me while I vent. I have an acronym abuser living at my house. It’s my husband. I swear it would be a miracle if a single sentence could slip past his lips that was not laced with some kind of nonsense code. Things like pov, rp, soc and cpm find there way into our conversations, and often I find myself lost. Do you have this problem at your house, or does your spouse have a normal job?

I few posts ago I told you about my glorious gray hairs. It occurred to me that perhaps my bathroom lighting isn’t up to snuff. If it had been, perhaps I would have noticed my skunk patch sooner. Who knows how long its been there. Weeks? Months? More than a year? Is that even possible? So now I am fretting about what else I might overlook. Maybe some toothpaste at the corner of my lips. A booger in my nose??? I think I need to crank up the wattage before I embarrass myself further.

I hate Saturday and Sunday mornings. I’m so use to getting up early that my body now refuses to let me sleep in on the weekends. So after spending a good 30 minutes staring that the my clock, I accept there is no falling back asleep and make my descent downstairs.
Now I sit with my coffee in hand in front of the tv. The little voice in my head says ‘no, don’t do it. Don’t turn that tv on. That evil tv is going to try to sell you something.’ But do I listen? No! And this is where my pain and suffering begins. There is one thing that always sucks me in, exercise equipment and weight loss programs. Why God, why?
If only I could lose a substantial amount of weight simply by stacking and moving the boxes of all the things I bought, then I wouldn’t feel so bad about all of the money I’ve spent.

Do you remember the good old days, back when there was no cable tv, cellular phones or home computers? Way back when the internet was referred to as the information highway, I passed my days away by spending time outdoors and reading books. Now it seems as though I spend my days and nights attached to electronics in one form or another. Duh, I say as I type away at this computer…If I am not on the computer, then I might be walking out the door with my Blackberry in my purse and iPod earbuds hanging around my neck. Oh wait, did I leave my Garmin in the car???
Can I ever go back? I don’t think so. I’m too obsessed.

The other day as I passed by the mirror I gave a quick glance from the corner of my eye. It was at that particular moment that the sun made its presence known, highlighting a what would have been an obvious skunk patch to anyone who did not suffer from nearsightedness, such as I. I was stunned to say the very least. Ya, I knew I had a gray hair or two. I had no idea I was turning completely white. Then I began to pull and tug at the corners of my eyes. I smiled then frowned and smiled again, trying to determine the severity of my wrinkles. Now I am on the prowl for some awesome hair color and the best wrinkle cream money can buy. God knows, I am too young to look like Heloise.
Sorry, Heloise…

It is probably a little too soon to be planning a baby shower, but I am very excited nonetheless. I, for one, have always loved a good party, expecially when the party involves a plethora of miniture desserts. I love the games, the decorations and of course seeing all of the baby gifts. I suppose I should at least wait to find out what she is having before I go any further. But still, I can’t wait…I just can’t wait!
