Random Tuesday Once Again!

Ready For Some Football!

I cannot wait til Thursday!! Who else is ready for some Football?! Thursday is the New Orleans Saints first pre-season game.

I didn’t actually become a big fan til I moved to Long Beach, MS for my second bachelors degree. I wanted something to watch other than my regular television shows so I could make myself take a break from studying; as I found myself always studying and not really taking any breaks. So ever since I haven’t missed watching a game unless I absolutely had no choice. Continue reading “Ready For Some Football”

Cabbage Soup Diet

Posted on by Crafty JBird

 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.

Teavana Tea Drinker…

Hello Random Tuesday!

Tired of drinking coffee but still want that caffeine kick? I have been drinking tea most of my life thanks to my mom. Growing up we didn’t even own a coffee maker. Technically we still don’t. I personally can’t even really stand the smell of coffee.  However, tea I think I could just smell it all day! It’s sorta like my Young Living Essential Oils. I guess that makes sense since they both come from plants.

Dallas Zoo…

Happy Random Tuesday Y’all!!

Istanbul, Turkey:

So Friday my mom and I went to Dallas to pick my sis up from the airport.  While waiting, we got the news about what was going on in Istanbul, Turkey.  I was so thankful I knew my sis was about to land in the Big D, but scared because my brother-in-law and his family was still there.  I texted my brother-in-law to check up on him and he was good.  Later on, I found out his family was all out-of-town visiting his mother’s home town so everyone I know over there was good to go.  🙂

While in Dallas, we decided to visit the Dallas Zoo since in my memory I have never been and even if I had, they’ve updated since then.  We also went to see “The Secret Life of Pets” at the Studio Movie Grill in the area we always stay in close to family.  Unfortunately, they were all sick so we didn’t get to visit with them.  The movie was great!  If you haven’t seen it yet, you need to go.

The Big D Zoo:

So today I wanted to focus more on the zoo.  I love zoos almost as much as I love aquariums.  One of my items on my bucket list is to visit every aquarium and zoo in the States and as many as possibly outside the States. Continue reading “Dallas Zoo…”

Becoming a Tripawd….

It’s Random Tuesday once again!

I hope everyone is having a GREAT morning!  Me, I had to go to the dentist at 7am for my 6 month cleaning but after leaving and getting half way there I realized I forgot something I needed.  Once I got back home to get it and went to get out of the car, I saw I managed to forget to also change shoes as I was still in my UGG house shoes. ?  So yea, my mornings been GREAT!

Any who…

I’ve mentioned my Gracie baby a few times in my previous posts.  For this post I wanted to tell you about the time she tragically broke her front left leg.  I know I’ve touched on this subject too, but I thought I would go a little more in-depth. Continue reading “Becoming a Tripawd….”
