No Sleep, but Found a Great Deal
My little sweet son has a stuffy nose and cannot sleep. Seems like a little thing, but its 3 in the morning right now and I know tomorrow will not be fun...
I stopped at the 24 hour Walgreens and picked up Triaminic Thin Strips, so hopefully those will be helping him soon. Right now he is next to me playing with a one of my make-up concealer sticks, a pen and some old game system inter-cooler. Its almost like he is trying to play the drums. I am tired and he is not. Often seems to be the case :-)
While waiting for him to tire out, I think I have stumbled across a great deal. Buy two Triaminic items from Walgreens and a $5 Register Reward will pop out. Plus there is a $1.50 coupon here. Try to print two, and if all goes well, that should make the items (originally on sale this week 2 for $10) only $1 each. Wow! Be sure to double check though.
Hope you all are able to get a good rest. Me, too...

Weightloss Wednesday
I've joined the weekly Weightloss Wednesday started by Rosey Little Things. I guess I should start out by stating my weightloss goals and steps.
Total Weightloss goal: I'll tell you when I make it :-).
Food Guide Resource: Magic Foods by Readers Digest
A guide to better blood sugar.
I'm happy to say that since the beginning of the year I have lost about seven to ten pounds. I found a way of eating that has really worked for me: controlling my blood sugar. A lot of people think controlling your blood sugar is for diabetic people only, but I have found that following such a lifestyle has made a lot of improvements for me. And I am not diabetic.
I also purchased a dance cardio dvd and joined the free marine corps fitness site that guides you through workouts and such to help you become strong in ways similar to marines.
I also recently made a more GL friendly (blood sugar friendly) french fry variation that I ablsolutely LOVE! Baked Sweet Potatoe "Fries" from scratch. Since my camera batteries died, I will have to make that my next post so I can show you how I made them. Delish!

Big Research Paper
As you know, I am in college working on pre-grad school credits. Right now I am in a research writing and developement (or of the sorts) English class and we are about to finalize what subject we are going to spend the WHOLE semester researching and writing about. After lots of brainstorming and trying to decide on something I really do want to know more about, I think I've narrowed it down.
Can you guess????
The stockmarket. I can hear some of you saying "Great!" and others wondering, "Why bother?"
Well, I really don't have in-depth knowledge of anything about the stockmarket. And I really want to! There is so much to learn, that hopefully I won't have a difficult time writing the approximately 10 page paper at the end of the semester or something (besides the difficulty of just writing that much in general).
It is possible that I may start sharing some of what I learn with you... (I almost feel bad for you myself).
I found out something really interesting about one of my fellow employees at my work. They started investing in stock really young and managed to get buy some in Starbucks. That stock paid for several cars and a house!
Now I know what some of you are thinking - "She's looking to get rich quick, and will find nothing but dissapointment along the way." That would be so if that was why I decided to study the subject, but its not (even though that would be really cool!). I'm studying it for understanding and awareness.
So if any of you know of good place to start my research, let me know! This venture could be really exciting or really boring. I guess we'll see.
