Not very hungry lately

by

I was just saying on my other blog that my husband and I just finished eating a late dinner. I think we ate so late in part because I wasn’t really very hungry most of the day.

I haven’t been very hungry at all in the last two weeks. I do get hungry around dinner time but that’s about the only time that I really get hungry. I think it’s because we’ve been eating a bell peppers pretty much every day and they’ve been acting like the best appetite suppressant that I’ve ever had. I’m convinced that that’s what it is.

Have you ever experienced this .. Try eating bell peppers every day for a week or so. I don’t know if it works raw or not (probably). I’ve been eating them grilled or roasted – just a third to half a pepper a day and wow … no cravings for snacks between meals or feeling hungry at all.

Back to school

by

I just found out that my nephew went back to school in January. I was speaking with my sister the other day and she mentioned that my nephew had applied for an online business degree course and had started taking it in January.

I’m really pleased for him. He’s still young but he’s started a few different careers in the last couple of years and then stopped without finishing and this time it sounds like he might really see it through. I really hope that he gets his online business degree.

Sunday is going to be very busy

by

Sunday seems to be our big shopping day lately. I’m not sure how it’s turned out that way, but that seems to be the day when we go out grocery shopping for the week ahead, and run around to any other stores to get things we need.

Other than buying groceries, Sunday doesn’t make all that sense when I think about it, because the stores close so much earlier … we’re always scrambling to get to all the stores that we need to get to before they close. Silly isn’t it. I guess we should do some of our shopping on Saturdays or other weekdays.

On top of shopping I also have to read some jack3d reviews for my nephew either later tonight or tomorrow. He’s a fitness nut and he wants me to check this stuff out.

I think tomorrow is shaping up to be a very busy day.

Frustrated with my new computer

by

I’ve been spending so much time over the last couple of weeks trying to get my new laptop computer going that I’m about ready to put the new laptop aside or even send it back. I’m so frustrated with it.

The keyboard alone is driving me nuts! The shift key on the left hand side makes the cursor jump up a paragraph every once in a while, you know, when you use the shift key to capitalize a letter and then all of a sudden your cursor is in the middle of the paragraph above … what???? I don’t know if it’s the keyboard acting up or if I’m unknowingly hitting a key and causing the cursor to jump upward every once in a while. It’s so odd.

I think I am just going to put the computer aside for the night. My friend wants me to read these oxyelite pro reviews for her, then I’m going to bed. I think I’ll sleep in tomorrow.

I’m really enjoying my iPod

by

I’m really enjoying having an iPod. I’ve only had the iPod Touch for about a week and a half, but wow … what a blast!

I only wish I’d bought one sooner.

It’s not like I didn’t think about getting one years ago … I just didn’t see the need for one up until now. Now that we have a dog and I can see using it when we take her out for walks etc well … Actually since we got the iPod I’ve used it while I’ve been cooking, cleaning, working on the computer, when I’ve been out in the backyard with the dog and so on.

Now that I’m all hooked up with an iPod maybe I should think about getting a new cellphone too? Maybe a blackberry or an iPhone? I’ll have to look into both types and see if I like either of them I suppose.
