Time to cut back / Summer days are here again

I chose #1

If I could cut back on something in my life that takes up a lot of my time it would have to be my computer time. I know I need my mouth washed out with soap for typing thatWash_mouth_out_soap_small,

but I do spend way to much time blogging, tweeting, facebooking (is that a word….) and e-mailing. I need to start spending more time with Bub over the summer outdoors and watching movies and stuff so my posts may be shorter and not everyday.. See I only did one question this time, I am making progress alreadywink.jpg. And just because I am trying to consolidate my blog time…two posts in one:

SCHOOLS OUT FOR SUMMER:

Now everyone give a big round of applause


soundboard.com and sing

I'm so excited,
And I just can't hide it.
I'm about to lose control,
And I think I like it.

Here are the Prompts for this week:
1.) If you could cut back on something in your life that takes up your time what would it be? And what would you prefer to spend that time doing?
(inspired by Lady Isra)
2.) Share a recent adventure you had with a friend.
(inspired by Amy)
3.) Describe a memorable gift. Why was it important to you?
(Inspired by Kit Kat)
4.) If you could change career paths now and be anything you wanted to be...what would you be and why?
(inspired by Lauren)
5.) Kim's email:
In the St. Louis News-Dispatch paper, they had an article of a man who wrote his own obituary before his death, and gave it to his sister to post when he died. He summed life up in 45 words:(I know it's a morbid subject, but what about a prompt about what would one's obit say, with a word limit. You could stipulate that everyone died at 100, so we'd all be predicting what our future would be like.
So there you have it. Sum up life in 45 words. :) Happy happy.
(Inspired by Kim)

Which one will YOU choose??

Today is Field Day at Bub’s school and it will be about 91 degrees with a very high UV Index, which means if you don’t have on sunscreen you will be one burnt crispy critter. I really detest being outside during the summer unless it entails a pool or a body of water near by, but this is all for the children... so please pray I don’t pass out in a pool of sweat.See full size image **Update** I survived but I feel Geerooossss.

Switchin it up a notch


Switcha what???
I guess I may need to do something since during the great flood of 2009 I ate this
P1040531 thisP1040535 thisP1040536
and this…
P1040679
Oh wait I just made that yesterday and if you want the recipe go here. It is called Banana Cinnamon Chip Cake and boy is it delicious. It will make you want to slap your eye balls out or slap your tongue out your mouth or something like that, those are southern terms or something my husband made up.. I will have to consult with him on the correct terminology. But I am telling you it is yummo and you could even eat it for breakfast, I mean if you were not doing the 30x5 and all. I am totally not eating that for breakfast, I am eating Blueberry Muffin Shredded Wheat w/skim milkavatar16.jpg cat wink image by patris0715. But seriously you need to try the recipe it will make you want to slap your Grandma, wait no, seriously I am confused. Don’t go slappin’ your grandma after you eat it and blame it on me because I will deny, deny, deny…
You know who I want to slap, well not really because I love his blog and he is a super great guy …GREG... He came up with this whole switcheroo concept and I have been perplexed ever since Linda put it up on her blog as our next challenge. I live in a very warm climate and the only safe things to do during the summer is get on the treadmill in the ACPhotobucket or swim for fear of heat stroke and I already do both of those. So I guess I will combine the two.. No I am not going to put my treadmill in the pool, I’m not a fan of being electrocuted. I will try to run in the pool for 30 to 40 minutes 5 days a week or maybe even 6, sounds good to me, right that’s switching it up isn’t it ?? And since I totally stunk up the last 30x5 since I am not a big fan of water, but I did try0522091418-00.
I am going to start drinking 2 parts water to one part CranStrawberry or CranApple..

Woohoo dance1 I can join in the Old Switcheroo and now I don’t have to slap anything or anyone…Thank goodness because all this slapping business is confusing the heck out of me.
