I know my posting has been a bit more spaced out than usual lately.  I was surprised when I looked at my blog this morning and realized I hadn’t posted since Thursday.  Since this is my second post today I am hoping that helps to make up for my lack of posting.

Anyhoo- my tackle for today is this:

We are starting to do a little room re-arranging at our house to meet our needs a little bit better.  Moving the furniture won’t be all that hard- it will finding homes for things that need to be moved that will be a bit harder.  So, I am going to tackle it a little bit at a time.  For this week I am simply going to tackle these cubes.  All of the stuff on these cubes needs new homes.  And some of the stuff should probably go into my garage sale box.  Then I am probably going to use those cubes in our downstairs as a place to organize all of the art supplies I have for Hailey.

Stop by 5 Minutes for Mom to see what everyone else is tackling.

And- make sure you check out my fabulous giveaway this week- it’s for a $50 gift certificate!

Do you have any nosy neighbors?  I’m sure we all have that certain neighbor who usually knows everything that is going on in the neighborhood- who is on vacation, who is splitting up, who gets a lot of packages, etc.  The Sproutwells have one of those neighbors- just watch and see:

I know you must be curious now about how freshfunds works.  If you go to FreshFunds you can sign up for an account (it takes about 15 seconds).  Then you save points that you will get when you buy healthy foods.  Then once you accumulate enough points you can use those points to bid on great items.  For example, a few of the items I would love to bid on- an elliptical, a travel package (which includes plane tickets and a camera) and Pink Kitchen Aid appliances.

It’s really very simple and there are tons of great prizes coming up- so hurry on over to FreshFunds to join the fun today!

How is it possibly time for another Thursday Thirteen?  Every week my mind is blank when I try to think of something fun to do for Thursday Thirteen.  How do some people have hundreds of Thursday Thirteens?  How can you come up with stuff every single week?  Anyhoo, I decided to go with 13 quotes by Bill Cosby.

1. Human beings are the only creatures on earth that allow their children to come back home.
2. I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
3. Fatherhood is pretending the present you love most is soap on-a-rope.
4. I am not the boss of my house. I don’t know when I lost it. I don’t know if I ever had it. But I have seen the boss’s job and I do not want it.
5. Women don’t want to hear what you think. Women want to hear what they think– in a deeper voice.
6. Old is always fifteen years from now.
7. Let us now set forth one of the fundamental truths about marriage: the wife is in charge.
8. You know the only people who are always sure about the proper way to raise children? Those who’ve never had any.
9. Sigmund Freud once said, “What do women want?” The only thing I have learned in fifty-two years is that women want men to stop asking dumb questions like that.
10. No matter how calmly you try to referee, parenting will eventually produce bizarre behavior, and I’m not talking about the kids. Their behavior is always normal.
11. In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.
12. Parents are not interested in justice, they’re interested in peace and quiet.
13. Men and women belong to different species and communications between them is still in its infancy.

I am always looking for ways to try to be healthier.  I try to exercise and try to eat healthy.  I try to get enough sleep, but Hailey doesn’t always cooperate with that plan.  Recently I’ve noticed when I look in the mirror that I am starting to look older.  Now, I have always looked quite a bit younger than I am.  When I was in my late teens and early twenties it really bothered me that people thought I was so young.  Now that I am 30 I really like hearing people tell me they think I only look 20.  But the lack of sleep that being a mommy brings and several stressful things that have happened are starting to make me look a little older.  So, I was reading about Solutions IE Total Body Detox today.  Check out this press release:

Press Release:
Lehi, UT – The SOLUTIONS IE Total Body Cleanse formula combination is the latest breakthrough technology in the health industry, according to Lyn Hanshew, M.D. The program consists of two powerful products, Total Zeolite and Total Silver. Creator, and SOLUTIONS IE founder, David Larson, says zeolite - a naturally occurring mineral formed from volcanic ash millions of years ago -supports the body in the elimination of toxic heavy metals and harsh chemical toxins.”

Zeolite minerals from Total Zeolite enter the body as energized cages that trap toxic heavy metals and pollutants, such as mercury and lead, and eliminates them. Your body then has a cleaner, healthier environment, free of toxic heavy metals and modern poisons that can make you sick. Zeolite is so powerful it is used to create purified, medical grade oxygen from air using its ability to trap impurities. Zeolite was also used successfully in the clean-up after the nuclear power plant disaster at Chernobyl and was fed to cattle to keep radioactive ions out of the milk.

Total Silver is the perfect companion to Total Zeolite. Unlike antibiotics, which destroy only bacteria, and destroy both good and bad alike, Total Silver has been proven to destroy many different types of pathogens including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and other single-celled organisms such as parasites.

Total Silver may also be the answer to the rapid rise of staph infections. Several studies at a major Western University have shown the powerful effects of Total Silver on infections such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

“The combination of these two products will create a healthy environment for your immune system, rid your body of toxic waste, as well as kill any destructive pathogens that could be making you sick,” says Dr. Hanshew.

The Total Body Cleanse system is starting to see a boost in prescriptions from integrative practitioners around the world. Larson says these breakthrough formulas combine to address the most basic reasons why most people get sick: toxic environments and harmful pathogens. “Detoxification is a must to maintain a healthy lifestyle. You will be astounded at how much more vibrant you will feel when the internal cleansing process begins. Both Total Silver® and Total Zeolite® are provided in simple-to-use Intra-oral sprays making detoxification simple” says Larson.
Total Zeolite and Total Silver are the newest products from SOLUTIONS IE. Please visit http://www.solutionsie.com or call 801-717-3225 for more information.

My Wordless Wednesday is really late this week. I almost didn’t post it since it’s going to be Thursday in a few hours.  But, it just doesn’t feel like Wednesday without a Wordless Wednesday.  On to my wordlessness.

Does anyone else have days like this?  My laptop has been giving me problems lately that are frustrating me to no end.  So, what kind of computer issues do you have?
