I confess that when Lands’ End asked me to review one of their swimsuits, I was a bit apprehensive. Swimsuit shopping is not a favorite activity of mine. I struggle with knowing what kind of suit to get and it seems I always pick a black one.
I was relieved and excited to find out that Lands’ End has a video explaining the different body types. In addition to this, they sell swimsuits specific to your body type! With this information, I suddenly felt more at ease about my swimsuit shopping.
I clicked on the Lands’ End website, clicked on swimwear, and …read more

One of the best things about blogging is I get to try out some of the latest and greatest products for the family. Today is no exception. I recently received a pair of pink (of course) Lanikai Stride Rite sandals for my daughter and a pair of blue Bondi Stride Rite sandals for my son. There were lots of good things about the shoes that I liked and one major thing that I found lacking, IMHO.
Best parts of the sandals:
• They were easy to get on and off, both for me and her.
• My kids have fat feet so they …read more

I got the opportunity to try the new Tic Tac Chill product line. They gave me the Paradise MInt and the Cherry to try. The kicker was that they are sugar free. That usually knocks me out of liking something. I took them to work and so did my husband. I think I was the only one who didn’t like the Cherry. The Paradise Mint was ok though. I thought the Cherry was overpowering but my co-worker barely tasted the cherry. So I have to say, we were torn. But I didn’t have that awful sugar free shock that normally …read more

Today I had to take one of my students to a doctor’s appointment an hour away. Once again, I printed out some directions from Mapquest. Why do I even bother anymore????? I can’t begin to tell you the number of times the directions have been wrong (including today). It is sooooo frustrating!!!! I guess deep down I just keep hoping for the best.
I was in the company vehicle and we’ve been switching vehicles a lot lately. Unfortunately, I forgot to take my new Sony Nav-u with me today. Thankfully, someone was able to give me some assistance and help me …read more
