Well, I have not broke records for weight loss but I have lost about five pounds since I’ve started college. I work until five and then go straight to college, where my first class starts at 6:10. So I usually have a light supper (such as a Fiber One bar or something like that) and I get a little more exercise than usual. I have to walk from class to class, and my classes are on opposite ends of the campus. So I know I have blogged about wanting to lose weight, exercise and diet pills before, but I feel good about it this time. Maybe I can lose weight without diet pills or surgery. I just try to eat a good breakfast and lunch, and then I have a very light dinner before classes. No in between meal snacking either. This is great. I’ll keep you posted.

Well, I don’t have a lot of time to get on here anymore. I still work full-time and attend college full-time in the evenings, but sometimes I still find the time on the weekends to just surf the web. And it’s fun, too! So whether I’m looking to find remodeling tips, stainless steel tiles (from my last post) or Ferrari parts. Okay, I’m not in the market for stainless steel tiles or Ferrari parts, but it is still fun to look. Oh, here’s something that I need to be looking for. There’s two old movies that I want to find (a lady at work said that they are the last horror movies that she has seen), but they sounded interesting to me. The first one is “Hush, Hush….Sweet Charlotte” and the other one is “What ever happened to Baby Jane?” I googled them and they didn’t sound like horror movies to me but they did seem interesting. So, I would like to see them. If anyone knows where I can find them, let me know.

I just love surfing the web, and looking at different stuff. I was looking today and I found something different. I found some stainless steel tiles. Now I have heard of porcelain and ceramic tiles but not stainless steel. But what I have looked at, you can used them in some ways that you would use ceramic or porcelain. Such as for backsplashes for the kitchen or bath, fireplace surrounds or accent walls. You use grout with them just like ceramic tiles. And I kept looking and also found copper tiles, too. I think they look really good.

As I get older, I notice gray hairs, drier skin, and new wrinkles everyday. So, what do I do? Well, for the gray hair….I cover it. So I now have blonde hair, no grays. The drier skin, I have found a good but inexpensive Vitamin E lotion. But for the wrinkles….well, everybody advertises that they have the best wrinkle creams. Now, if I can just find the best cream without buying a ton of the not-so-best wrinkle creams. So I have been asking my friends for recommendations and looking on the web (but there again, everyone on the web is the best). So I would like to know if anyone has a great wrinkle cream that isn’t expensive.
Any suggetions??

Here’s my next “what do you think?” This week, my question is what do you think of the rear spoiler for a car? I think they make a small sports car look cool. My son-in-law has an ‘08 mitsubishi lancer and it has a lip spoiler. In my opinion, it looks good, but he really wanted the post spoiler (or what I call a fin). 
But sometimes the spoilers that are installed after the vehicle is purchased, they don’t look so good. Like the spoilers that are really tall, those look really tacky. Of course, this is just my opinion. So, what do you think?

I’m already planning our next family vacation. Of course, it won’t be until next summer but I’m trying to decide where to go. We’ve been going to Panama City Beach for several years now and we really like going there. But sometimes I think it might be fun to go somewhere else. We’ve been to Disneyworld two times and it’s been a long time since we have been there. Kecia (my oldest daughter) wants us to go with her and her husband, James in a couple of years from now when she graduates college. I would like to try to do that. And a friend of mine has talked to me about las vegas hotels and the fun things to do in las vegas besides gambling. That might be a possibility. I have been wanting to go to Niagara Falls, too. So I’m looking for some place new. Any suggestions???

I don’t know why I was thinking about this. Maybe with all the weddings that I have been to this year, and the prom that my daughter attended. But what do you think about the tuxedo vest? I’ve noticed with the people that I’ve come in contact with and searching on the internet, that you can do all different things with vests. You can match your tux, such as black on black or you could do black with gray. Or there is the ever popular, matching the date’s dress. And there is several different fabric textures. So what do you think is the best look??
I’m thinking about doing a weekly or monthly post on a “what do you think?” subject. I think I will enjoy the feedback and see how others think about things. Thanks for your input.

Yes, we are still needing to do some remodeling. I have probably talked about this before, but we are needing to remodel the guest bathroom. So I am looking at stuff for the bathroom. I want a new vanity, new flooring (which we already have), and definitely some new bathroom lighting. And I know this might sound strange, but I want to remove the tub in that bathroom (we always use the shower in the other bathroom). I would like to get a cabinet to go there. So on my list of remodeling jobs the guest bathroom is top priority, but I also want to do some other things to the house. In the future, I would like new living room furniture.

I absolutely love photography, and I have seriously considered taking some classes. But for now, I will just be happy taking pictures of my family and friends. I have done some engagement pictures and took some senior pictures of my daughter and her friend. I am not a professional but I think they look alright. I love taking pictures when we are at the beach. So every year when we are on our family vacation to Panama City Beach, I come home with 200 to 300 pictures….everything from beach sunrises to sunsets, to when we are playing mini-golf, to deep sea fishing excursions. My friends goes to Naples each year, and they love taking pictures on the beach with a Naples photographer. I really like taking pictures of people on the beach. You can take black and white or color pictures, they are all great. Well, I just thought I would share that with you. And maybe I will take some classes someday. Probably in four years after I earn my nursing degree, until then I will enjoy photographing my family.
