Angus is our (almost) 4 year old Boxer. Angus has his own blog - 'From Angus With Love' and believe me, he loves to blog!

Angus also supports local and national animal shelters. He has been lucky enough to receive lots of mail from all kinds of fans too!

Recently he has been asked to try out different dog toys and other pet supplies as well. Stop by his blog and check out the reviews he has in store for everyone!

Well, it could be weight loss supplements or it could just be that you need to lose your sense of smell/taste. Seriously, this house has been locked down - we've all been really sick. I had a wicked sinus infection and with that came the loss of smell/taste. I was hungry but hated eating because the food was just blah.

So, I either didn't bother eating or ate very small portions and 5 pounds gone! Ha! I must add, I am getting my sense of smell/taste back and umm, I am more than making up for the lack of food, LOL

Well, I thought I'd have 3 separate trips to take next year. One in March for the T-Mobile PEAK Award ceremony - CJ won that award but we turned down the Hawaii trip, so no need to go looking for tuxedo shirts and fancy dresses. Oh we're crazy for turning down a Hawaii trip? LOL - well these are our reasons

I also thought we'd be getting a trip to Vegas because CJ was in the running (top spot actually) for another T-Mobile award and that awards ceremony is held in Las Vegas but he has recently gotten a promotion and the promotion takes him out of the running for that particular award, so no Vegas trip.

We will, however, be going to Disney World again - as Disney Vacation Club members! I am so excited I can hardly stand it! We own 320 points at Bay Lake Tower!


Check out my Family Disney Vacations blog for all the fun!

I have found a really awesome website that sells wholesale maternity jeans at really good prices!

These maternity jeans are 100% made in Italy and are available online and they are also sold in stores world wide.

These maternity jeans are really stylish - if you're looking for decent maternity jeans, definitely check out www.maternityjean.co.uk

Well, this last week has been crazy for our finances! Our electric bill was $250! You bet your butt the air conditioners have been turned off! Thank goodness for cooler weather.

Then we find out that our cable provider is going full on HD and we will HAVE to have a converter box for every tv in the house - that's $14 a month per box! Time to look into other options, bell tv looks like a good deal, too bad we're not in Canada.

Just been one of 'those' weeks.

I am going to be using an aromatherapy diffuser from now on after what happened yesterday! They are MUCH safer! We had a candle accident yesterday that could have gotten really ugly had our smoke detector not worked! Everything is fine but a few more seconds and I'd be looking for a new pace to live.

Reed diffusers are awesome - they last a long time and the scents they give off are not overpowering. Health Freak Mommy actually has some good information about them on her blog. I've always believed in aromatherapy I just never took the time to really study it so I've been taking more time for that now.

I am certainly starting to tune into the more 'natural' aspect of myself. In fact, I recently came upon handmade natural soaps that make my skin feel so soft - I love them! The glycerine soap is my all time favorite! I hope I can find some the next time I go to the Fairie Festival - I've been missing that festival last 2 years because we've been in Disne World!
