THRE3 by U.S Polo

K-Mart has a line made by U.S Polo
I was out looking for rubber boots the other day and came across this line.
I tried several items on and didn't care for any of them
one was a woven top, one was a knit top w/ ties on the sleeve's
I did try the jeans and dress pants and liked them
I ended up buying a short sleeve cardigan (24.99)and a v-neck tee (9.99)
I love them both!
the tee fit's so nice
I went back today to get some more and the 40% off sale was gone!
I found several cute things and they are on sale!!
1. sleeveless denim dress 24.99
I thought this would be great for my Uncle's western wedding
with a cute pair of cowboy boots

2. floral dress 24.99
another great option for the wedding

3. nice plaid shirt for work
on sale 5.99

4. My new favorite t-shirt!
on sale 4.99!!


5. Jeans- no picture
but they are so cute and on sale for 13.99!
I have to be careful because some styles in the store I didn't like the way the fit
My plan is to order and I can always return

Check it out!!

Truth???

truth??
Are you truthful?
I am a truthful person
but.....
Sometimes I don't speak my truth
I just don't say anything
WHY???
I'm afraid that people will be hurt, that I will offended or get a negative response
WHY???
I don't like confrontation
I don't like attention on me (positive or negative)
I don't like disagreements
I don't like disappointment
STOP!
2010 has been a turning year in my life I vowed to try new things
I stopped and evaluated me
STOP
missing out on things I like
STOP
sitting back and not taking care of myself
STOP
being afraid of not hearing the answers that I want to hear
STOP
wondering what if.....
I vowed that 2010 is my year for trying new things
I have kept this vow and it feels so good
I need to still work on this vow
I will continue with this vow
sitting back and not enjoying things in not an option it's
Time
to start being me
Time
to do the things I want
Time
to enjoy everyday
Time
to be truthful out loud.

Subway to the Rescue

Subway to the rescue!
My morning schedule had a change today
I need to be out the door early
I had heard about Subway breakfast and I thought I would give it a try!


I had an egg white sandwich
(never had an egg white omelet or just eggs whites w/o the yolk)
I added ham, spinach and tomato
It was SOOOOoooooOOO GOOD!
The flavor was out of this world.

Greek to me

Greek yogurt:
everyone one states that Greek yogurt is so good for you
it has 2x the protein
I tried it......
I didn't like it
It was thick, grainy, hardly no flavor
I had 2 spoonfuls and threw it away.
I may try it again
I might be good for dips or in a recipe

How to save $ & cut a pineapple

Start with a whole pineapple.
Cut off top of pineapple
Center pineapple cutter over core of pineapple.

Twist, twist, twist....
Pull the pineapple cutter from the pineapple. Pour the juice and have a glass. I pull the core out and you have a great container for a fresh fruit salad.
Once the cutter is out you can keep the pineapple in slices or cut into chunks.
You end up with the whole pineapple cut in slices. You can cut into smaller pieces make a fruit salad, freeze them (recommend laying slices or chunks on cookie sheet place in freezer. once frozen bag)
I bought this whole pineapple for $2.98 vs. can's of pineapple for $1.50+.
