Reclaiming My Bod
With Jenny Craig-Week 7
Okay.
So here's where reality sets in and the flowers and butterflies of my previous posts takes a nose dive.
My weigh-in this week didn't go so hot.
There were many things playing into that outcome:

Wine = empty calories that don't like to say goodbye.

You really need to take the time to take in the many broadway-like performances that are offered in our city!
The show did not disappoint at all! Mamma Mia portrays the ...

Mother’s Day Craft….Flower of love
I always try and have my kids do something special for their grandmas for Mother’s Day, a project they can help with and that is meaningful.

Of course, grandma loved it…a flower she could keep year round, filled with loving words and a photo of her “babies”. In fact, it is still on display in her ...
