Diet Journey

By At the Fence
Hey neighbors!!

The other day I posted about my new focus on diet and exercise.  Well, least Saturday I stepped out on our back deck and slipped on the snow and went straight down on my back. Well, I got up and felt jarred, but no real pain other than where my hand caught the wall.  Sunday was a different story.  My hip hurt, my neck was sore, my hand hurt and I found I had friction burned my elbow.

So I started dieting, but could not do too much as far as exercise.  Wednesday afternoon we went to the local YMCA and I got on the treadmill for a short time.  I managed a 1/4 of a mile.  That's it before my hip started hurting.  So, slow but steady.  I will continue to give updates as I continue this journey.


I have been eating better.  My husband and I went out for lunch Wednesday and I had a salad while he had an Asian buffet.  The salad bar was nice, because they include large chunks of roast beef, ham and grilled chicken.  For lunch I had on Thursday I had tuna fish (mayo and pickle mixed in) and cucumber slices with some Ranch dressing.  Dinners have been Pork Chops with Faux Potato Salad (Cauliflower) and then Steak with Green Beans.



Thanks for stopping by!!

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

By At the Fence
When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

By At the Fence
Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child.  Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First  TV.  Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age.  And it works!  Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life.  Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words.  Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing.  There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along.  The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish.  Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer.  Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child
