Pretty soon the kids will be heading back to school, it's a bittersweet time. By the end of summer I am glad to return to more of a routine, relish in a house that stays clean (at least until the kids come home from school) and work in silence, but then.......those dreaded packed lunches are back on my to-do list every day! Boo!!!! With three boys in the house, that's 15 school lunches a week and it can get darn right tiresome and not just for me, but them too. My boys are the pickiest of the … [Read more...]

We miss them when they are gone, but there's such a thing as too much of a good thing! Before my oldest son started school a friend said to me something I always remembered.

I get bored really easily when it comes to working out, even with a program that allows you to put in a new workout everyday, if it's the same people and same set, I still get bored pretty fast. A few months ago I started searching for a few new and interesting workouts on the web.

So here's a few of my findings, just in case you are feeling the … [Read more...]
