Random thoughts for a rainy Wednesday! (At least it is rainy here. But, it is Indiana. I will give it 5 minutes, it could change!) These kind of blog posts are my favorites. Yes, they are simple to do, but they are fun for me. I hope you enjoy them. I need to come up with a fancy name for these kinds of posts. Feel free to give me any suggestions!
1) My best friend, Carli, has talked me into joining a new app called "Periscope". It is an extension of Twitter and is essentially a video post that you can comment live on. You can watch other people's videos or make your own. Each video is kept up only for 24 hours then it is taken down. You can go back through and watch people's videos if you follow them (just like Twitter). I got to watch Michael Rosenbaum's Scope (that is the lingo, kind of like a "tweet") earlier. It is kind of funny. I did my first Scope last night. I am still not sure what I think, but I will try it a little longer. How about you? Have you checked this new form of social media out? What did you think?
2) Have you ever found a TV show that you really didn't think you were going to like and then just HAVE to watch every single episode? I have found that in the show "Supernatural". Seriously people, I thought it would be a total corny, and at times it really is, but it is a really good show. Now, do not worry, I am fully aware that it is NOT real. That said, it is pretty cool that the show pulls in scripture. I have looked up a lot of what I have heard on there in the Bible. Obviously, big time liberties are taken, but it is still really interesting and I have learned quite a bit about my own faith just from watching a TV show. Huh, who would have thought.
3) Speaking of TV shows, a fellow cycling instructor told me about a show called "Hollywood Cycle" and it is about a gym in Los Angeles called Cycle House. It is a reality show, which normally I do not watch. But, it is about cycling, so I thought I would try it. Ugh. So much stupid, non-sense drama. I can't see any redeeming qualities to this show. Even they way they were cycling goes against everything I have been taught. I am sure there was a rhyme to the reason, but it looked ridiculous! And the women! Oh. My. Goodness. They were showing these women in full makeup and in teeny tiny clothes. Now, I realize it is LA and life is different there than in good ol' Indiana, but I guarantee you if you came to my class dressed like that in full make up and shaking your butt for all they boys to see, well, I would be working your butt off even more! Craziness! I do not think I will be watching it again.
4) I have been trying to decide if I am ready for school to start. I am not really ready to go back to the school schedule, but let me tell you, my kids are driving me CRAZY!! Anyone else in this boat?
5) I am obsessed with Skinny Pop Popcorn! Have you tried this? Oh my goodness, it is so amazing!! Go, try it. I promise you will not be disappointed.
6) We have been getting ready for 4H the past couple of weeks. We have a ton of sugar cookies in my freezer. I am trying to avoid them as much as possible. I have been really doing well the past 2 1/2 days. I only had 1 yesterday to test the recipe (promise!). The balanced food plan is going well. I feel better and my system seems to be running better, even after only a couple of days. Yay for healthy choices!!
Ok, I think that is all I have for today! Have a great day!!
Blessings!
