We Bought a Boat!

... ok not a boat
we bought a kayak...

an inflatable one...
which I wasn't too thrilled about to begin with
but Abbie insisted that I would love it
so we bought one for a shared Christmas gift

Today was its maiden voyage
that started out with us turning back because it was deflating

After fixing the problem though, we were good to go
and had an amazing time out
I didn't bring a camera because I didn't want it to end up in the water
but we pretty much looked like this:

Next time I'll be sure to capture the action.

What's your dream?

Just like guy in Pretty Woman
I want to know
What's your dream?

They say that you should do what you love.
But for the life of me I can't figure out how to make money
eating cheese and drinking wine

So here's what I'm thinking...
I'm going to break out on my own
and create something for all those like me
who do not know what to be when they grow up
(after all 40 is the new grown up- so I still have time)

My creation will be a machine
where you can type in all of your likes
which it will use to
compute/calculate/create 
and spit out 
the career of your dreams
(much like Conky's word of the day)

My likes would include the following:
dogs
wine
cheese
pita chips
movies
blogging
spinning
napping
reading
dancing
traveling
The Bachelor

What do you think? Is my invention Shark Tank material?

What words would you use for the Career Machine?

I'm a Juicehead

"A juicehead is a hot, Italian, tan guy, typically muscley. And loves, working out, you know, lookin' buff and brawlic." Snookie


Not this kind though.



That's right baby. I'm hitting this every morning and every night.
Shots!Shots!Shots! 
sing with me!

Here are some facts:
The health benefits of aloe vera taken internally include: improved circulation, regulation of blood pressure, promotes healing of bones and joints, strengthens the immune system, defends the body against bacteria, heals internal tissue damage, heals ulcers, improves and even eliminates constipation, blood sugar regulation, and reduces itchiness in psoriasis helping it to heal.

Drinking two to four ounces a day is all that is required to gain the many benefits of aloe vera juice. If you drink it daily, aloe vera can aid your digestion, improve your circulation and detoxify your body and cleanse your colon.

The detoxification properties of aloe vera juice also act to detoxify your blood stream. If you have intestinal or stomach problems it can help your digestive tract to work smoothly.

Aloe vera also helps to dilate the capillaries and support cell growth, thereby improving circulation.

One of the most important health benefits of aloe vera juice is its operation as an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal agent, helping to prevent the onset of disease in the body. Thus, taking aloe vera juice daily helps to maintain good health and provide a sense of wellbeing and energy.

Abbie can't stand the taste- but it really doesn't bother me. I've been taking it for about 3 days now. I'll keep you posted if I notice any benefits.

Off to meditation!
