Countdown Continues…

Happy Write It Wednesday!!

Okay don’t lie, who’s ready for the Olympics to start already?!, I know I am! I certainly can’t wait till the opening ceremony. Hopefully I’ll get to watch most of it but I’ll record it just in case. Every four years I look forward to seeing the various teams compete against each other. So, if you saw my post from Make It Monday this week you would know the Countdown Continues.

Cabbage Soup Diet

 Hello Random Tuesday!!

So, I have heard a lot of people say how gross this soup sounds; but don’t knock it til you try it, huh?! I do this Cabbage Soup Diet 2-3 times a year just to help keep my weight maintained or give me a jump-start when I’m trying to lose weight if I’ve let it go too much. This go around I started this past Sunday in hopes I would lose a few before my brother-in-law got into town with hopefully some simit from Turkey.

The first time I did this diet was in July 2004 with one of my best friends. We made the soup together at my house and did it ‘together’ during the week. Since she just lived around the block we saw each other most days. I made it through the whole week, but if I remember right, she didn’t. We mainly tried it out since I was getting ready to move down to Ft. Lauderdale, FL and she was helping me make the drive down <– it’s a 19.5 hour drive from where I live.

Olympics Countdown

It’s Make It MONDAY!!

The Olympics Countdown for the opening has started! It is ONLY three days until the Opening Ceremony now so times a ticking. If you have read my previous posts, you would know I was planning on doing an add-on to one of them. As you have already probably figured out, it’s something that has to do with the Olympics. The ‘add-on’ project is from my “Make It Monday” on the Fourth of July, which you can find here.

I know I said I was going to finish the project from last week; however, I completely forgot this week was the start of the games so the continuation of that project is now for next weeks post.

You are the Anchor to my Heart…

It’s Scrap It Friday again!

The Weekend is HERE!!

I LOVE the beach (in case you haven’t noticed!), in fact; I plan to one day (hopefully sooner, rather than later) have my wedding on a beach. So today I made a double page layout with a beachy theme. Since today is my parent’s wedding anniversary, I thought it would be just right to do a wedding type layout; but make it for someone who plans or has had a beach wedding, like me. The layout’s name is “You are the Anchor to my Heart.” I also thought this would be a nice layout type for two sets of people I know who got married this summer either on a cruise or somewhere on a beach.
