The one where I pet sit

So forever and a day ago I created a profile on care.com to.offer services like petsitting, babysitting, tutoring, etc and I never really had anyone send me a response or anything... I actually had quite forgotten about it when.suddenly I get an email from a prospective parent of the four cutest dogs ever!

She wanted to do a meet and greet to see if I would be able to help her, especially since she is here in Moapa Valley for a few months. Well right away as I enter the dogs stampede my way and start loving all up on me. It was ridiculous and I loved it. Apparently they loved me and a trial sit was set for a couple days later.

Let me say these dogs are the most easygoing animals ever. They get worn out from the heat easy so after a little bit of outside play they want back in and its snoozeville from there. I've decided that I love petsitting. Something about being with these dogs makes me extremely relaxed and happy. I feel blessed to be able to spend time with them...even when they are going crazy inside since outside is storming.

So far I've made in two days of sitting, what I earn in a week of working my other job. These pet parents want the best for their furbabies and I don't blame them. While they are here I am going to enjoy being able to help them and I'm not going to lie the extra money is nice. The hubs and I are going to put the money into savings :) Hopefully this will help us save a pretty penny and help us not be so strapped at times!

These dogs are seriously becoming my favorite way to spend the day. It isn't a job so much as spending time with some four-legged friends each week :)

The one were we feel "special"

So I've been in my apartment for a little over eight months now, okay thats over half a year, and all this time I have been puzzled as to why the walk-in pantry is void of its own light source. The hubby and I would joke about getting one of those push on night lights for in there, but never got around to it.Thankfully we hadn't otherwise this already embarassing situation would have been made worse. There is in fact a light. It just doesn't have a bulb in the socket. There is even a nifty little light switch right on the inside of the pantry by the door.

...this is where I hang my head in shame.

How we never noticed it before is beyond me. We had been in there looking at our options for dinner and he turned around and all of a sudden is asking what the switch went to. Naturally we started looking and lo and behold there is the sad empty little lightbulb house.

After we stopped staring at it incredously we laughed for a few minutes and than we started feeling like the couple of fools we are.

Let this be a lesson to you all. ALWAYS look...even when you think you have looked, look again!

It Works...it really does!

Here it is! The long awaited posting about what has been consuming my life lately! It Works Global and their Uh-MAZING products!Back in June I signed up as a distributor for It Works (link to my site below) and I haven't looked back! I did it on a whim, a shot in the dark, a hope for a better future and so far I haven't done too bad! The best part is that I managed to get a couple wraps on me before the wedding and I didn't have to have my dress taken out at all! The zipper had been a little bit close to popping, but after being wrapped it fit perfectly, if not just a little loose.

For those who don't know what a wrap is, it is a nonwoven cloth that has a natural botanically based lotion on it. You place the wrap on, wrap yourself up in an ace bandage or form fitting shirt or even tights and 45 minutes later you take it off, rub the remaining lotion in and VOILA! There should be some shrinkage, but the amazing thing is that over the next 72 hours YOU KEEP LOSING!!! You just have to make sure you drink plenty of water to help flush out the toxins being released from your fat cells. This isn't water weight happening. It is inch loss. The lotion helps to shrink fat cells which expand when they are loaded down with toxic junk...and water helps to flush it right out!

I and so many others have experience the magic of this wrap and the other products sold. If you want to know more about it works click the link.below and search around. You can message me through my contact information on the site if you wish to know more!

How I stopped stressing

For those of you who have followed this blog for awhile, and those who have just clicked on it, you know I have had a long and ardous struggle with depression and anxiety. Heck most of my most emotional (and more popular) posts were done in times of great sorrow. Last year I elected to stop taking the anti-depressants I was on. I didn't like feeling like a zombie, and I didn't like all the side effects that come with those medications. I've struggled with that on and off and while I've been an emotional train wreck at times, I have been happier off of them.

It got to a point though where, especially now that I'm married, my emotional stability (already fragile) was being completely obliterated. Poor Hubby has had to comfort me almost every day for the past couple of months as stress piled with other emotional traumas piled up. I decided to do something about it and as you know from previous posts I am a distributor for IT Works Global and I have started taking the Confianza supplements they have. It is an anti-stess formula that has also amazingly been helping with my depression! I've only been taking it for a week so far, but after years of living how I was I can honestly say I feel amazing.

The best part is that there aren't any side effects! It is hard to explain just how clouded and poisonous my thoughts/ feelings were, but let me tell you I have been able to think.more clearly than even when I was on antidepressants. I understand I've been on it for a week, and most people wouldn't take anyone at their word for it, but for the first time in my life I am actually happy and I don't get irritated or stressed at the drop of a dime. My anxiety levels have dropped and even in situations that made me snap or cry last week I am able to get through with ease!

I will continue to take Confianza because it is a natural supplement, it doesn't give me side effects (who needs to be jittery like a junkie?), and it gives me the ability to be in control of.my.emotions and notnthe other way around.
