• A special water-activated Moisturizing Serum hydrates to replenish skin’s natural moisture throughout each shave. It’s infused with nourishing marine extracts and rich shea butter.

Despicable Me has to be one of my favorite movies.  I love it.  I’ve watched it so many times, and it never gets old for me.

Last year the creators of Despicable Me released Hop in the movie theaters.  I never got a chance to see it, but my niece took her friends for her birthday party to it and all the kids really liked it.

This year, just in time for Easter, Hop will be released on Blu-ray and DVD (March 23, 2012).

It’s just January and I’m already thinking to the end of spring.  Partly the weather has something to do with it (it’s just been so un-winter here this year), but it’s also because of graduations.  We know a number of people graduating from all sorts of educational institutions and of course that means parties and some gift giving as well.

Where we live it is customary for parents to hold an open house when their children graduate.  It’s kind of a nice way to catch up with people that you may have not seen in a while, family, friends and neighbors.  As a tribute to the graduate you at the least bring a card, and while it’s not an obligation to give a gift, I always sort of feel I should come with something. 

I love Christmas time.  I love decorating for it.  I love my Christmas tree, and I especially love my ‘candy garland’ strands that adorn it each year.  What I DON’T love is the glitter those very same candy garlands leave all over my floors.

Yep from December to June we drag that glitter from one room to the next on the soles of our slippers, socks and feet.  Why oh why does glitter need to cling so furiously?

Some of you may have already seen this as my husband received is as an e-mail forwarded from a co-worker, who got it from his wife, who got it from…well you know how it goes.  I don’t know where it originally came from but I laughed and thought you might too.  A good start to the weekend!

Have you set goals for your life at the beginning of other years and never accomplished them?  Was one of them perhaps to get more education or work further on a degree you already have?  Did you put it aside because of time, money or both?  If this is the case for you, think about it again in 2012, and list the steps you need to take to reach that goal.  It may have changed since you first resolved to do it, but setting a goal towards furthering your education will put you on the path to actually doing it.

Okay I’m going to start the New Year off with a great giveaway.  It may also peak your interest in the DVD release of “I Don’t Know How She Does It” by Anchor Bay Entertainment on January 3rd.  Here’s a little about the movie:

Trying to balance work and family is a non-stop juggling act for Kate Reddy (Sarah Jessica Parker).  As a determined Boston-based finance executive, she devotes her day to her job and her night to her adoring husband Richard (Greg Kinnear) and their two young children.

We have had an abnormally warm and dry winter so far here in South Dakota, and I’m counting my blessings every morning when I wake up and it’s still brown.  There’s a reason I’d like to move further south!  That being said, we still have January, February and even

The holidays were wonderful; we put school on hold, I took some time off from the blogging and networking, and my family and I spent time hosting a high school friend of mine and her family who passed through our state and playing the new MMO game Star Wars: The Old Republic.

Now I have a mountain of laundry to do, the Christmas decorations to put away, dishes all over the counter, and school lessons to prepare. 

The makers of Centrum multivitamins have introduced ProNutrients – a select line of supplements designed to naturally work with your multivitamin to further support your health every day.  Maybe it’s your New Years Resolution to add supplements like Omega-3 or probiotics to your diet.  It is definitely one of mine, now with ProNutrients I can feel confident that I will get key nutrients for health and wellness.
