Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post. However, all thoughts and opinions are my own. If you have been keeping up with our family, you know my son's last dentist appointment didn't go so well. He had 3 teeth removed (one by accident) and 2 fillings. Our dentist also gave us a referral to an pediatric orthodontist to get braces. My other child has nearly perfect teeth so this came to quite a shock to me. At this point before I make my way to the orthodontist, I am familiarizing myself with Continue Reading
Being Loved and Fresh n Sexy #shop #FreshNSexy
Growing up I was never a very physically confident person. But I always had a positive attitude & to this day try to focus on my positive assets versus my pitfalls. Being married for over 16 years, I know my husband is totally in love with me. I'll be the first to admit that I am spoiled by him. He not only is in love with me, but he adores me, worships me and seriously, I have some sort of spell on him which allows him not to see exactly how crazy I really am! Because of this I am always Continue Reading
Balancing Family, Work and Health #HealthcareClinic
I have been dealing with wrist and finger pain for quite some time. Over the last 2 years my wrist pain has gotten worse.

I force myself to leave work early for my routine dental appointments. But leaving my job early during the week is very hard. In fact, if I can avoid it, I will. Walgreens has revamped their Take Care Clinics to the Continue Reading
Go Deep!! Philips Sonicare PowerUp Toothbrush #PowerUpUrSmile

Over the last 2 years I have had so much dental work done, nothing cosmetic, all preventative or regular maintenance. My bottom teeth are crowded, so they are very susceptible to cavities and almost every 6 months I refill my booster toothpaste prescription (I use the rx only before bedtime), get a new toothbrush & he reminds me how important I deep clean my lower teeth. A manual toothbrush isn't Continue Reading

Stepping Into Springtime with BIGELOW Tea #AmericasTea
It's funny how certain seasons triggers specific emotions & memories I had as a child. My grandmother would spend several hours a day in the spring & summer months tending to her large garden.

One thing I clearly remembered was my grandmother coming inside on a hot day to enjoy a glass of iced tea. She had boxes of tea on the counter from herbal tea, Continue Reading
