I have been very healthy during my life and I am very thankful for that.  But I worry that as I get older, my health may slip and I might run into problems.  So, I have decided that I will take some preventative measures to stay as healthy as possible.

The first step on my journey will be a colon cleanse.  Though I thought it sounded a little nasty, the thought of internal detoxification sounds good.  It will be my first step on the road of maintaining a healthy body and lifestyle.

I know that the big selling point of digital cameras was that you could take as many pictures as you wanted without having to worry about the cost of the film.  That was definitely a step in the right direction, but all these pictures came with one problem: we never printed anything out.

So, yesterday, we took some pictures into get printed and bought some picture frames to put on our walls.  Our home will look a lot more lived in with pictures of us on the walls - it is about time.

I would like to say a big hello to all the college students that read this post - it will be of interest to you.  I know that during my college years, I went through a ton of pens - whether it was taking notes in class, working on an assignment, or writing a paper, you needed to use a pen to do it.

I also know that I tried pretty much every brand of pen imaginable before finding one that I liked.  It turned out that Papermate pens worked the best for me.  They had the least number of exploded tips and had the longest life.

I would definitely recommend them to anyone that has a lot of writing to do - they are worth the money.

Well, I thought I knew everything, but once I walked up to the weight loss pills in the pharmacy, I knew that I was lost.  I thought that there would be one or two choices, but it turns out there were many more than that.

In fact, on the wall, there was a display of the top diet pills and there had to be ten different types.  It was at that point that I decided that I should just go back home and do some research before I made my purchase - obviously I didn’t have enough facts to make a decision.

I have had a parakeet for a couple of years now, and I make sure to make healthy choices for her when it comes to her diet.  I recently decided to try some new pet supplements that are on the market that promise to ensure a health parakeet.

Though it may sound silly to care so much, I treat my parakeet just like one of my children - I have to put its’ health first.

My computer has served me very well over the past few years, but I think that it is time for an upgrade.  I wish that I could say that it was for business reasons, but it turns out, there is a computer game that I want to play, but my computer doesn’t have enough memory.

So, I have been trying to find a company online that sell the type of RAM that I need.  So far, I haven’t had any luck, but I will keep looking - I really want to play that game!

I recently purchased a new car and I love it.  There is just something to be said about having a new car, and smelling that new car smell.  It is my first new car, so I am enjoying every minute of it.

But the one thing that I have noticed is all the cars that look just like mine.  I wanted to have a unique look to my car, so I went online to see if I could find something to help me set my car apart from everyone else.

I ended up at a site that sold custom grilles, and I picked up a new Chevy grille for my car.  It not only looks good, but it will set my car out from everyone else - which is just what I want.

Whenever I go grocery shopping, I always go and take a look at the food storage units. I use a lot of them, as I try to send reusable containers of yogurt and pudding in my children’s lunches, rather than sending a bunch of prepackaged food. I think it makes no sense to create more garbage if you don’t have to.

I remember when I found a food storage unit that was the perfect size for putting a sandwich into. I decided that my kids would never take a sandwich in a plastic bag again. I bought quite a few of them, because my kids have a nasty habit of losing their containers and I never see them again.

This is one of the reasons that I always tend to look for new containers for food storage when I am grocery shopping. I like the cheap ones, as it does not matter so much if the kids lose them. It is much more upsetting when I don’t get my Tupperware back.

Over the weekend, we finally had an opportunity to get some yard work done.  With the snow finally melted (we had some earlier in the week), we were able to do a little weeding.

Thankfully, I must have done a good job weeding last fall before the first snowfall, and it didn’t take very long.  So, I moved on to staining the deck and getting ready for barbeque season.

On Sunday, we were able to bring out our teak patio furniture, and sit and enjoy our yard.  Though there is going to be some yard work in the near future, sitting outside was the perfect end to a weekend of labor.

After completing his last stay at a drug rehab facility, my brother was doing very well.  In fact, he lasted just shy of three months before he started having problems again.

Maybe he should have moved to a new town with new faces, but he fell back into his same routines and started using drugs again.

But, our family has decided to take action again and put him into another drug rehab, that has a better reputation and history of success.  Hopefully, things will work out this time and he will be able to kick his habits.
