...buzz be gone...

About twice a year

we get a buncha flies in the house.

Those circling type

that buzz around and around.

ICK!

Sicks me out.

Usually I chase them all day and try to squish/vacuum/kill them.

But the trick is to wait until night.

They get all lazy and shut down I guess, and are easy targets.

I put my hubby on the hunt...

He usually gets the majority

and problem is solved.

So gross though.

Flies, flies, go away!

Saw on pinterest something about

hanging ziplock bag in doorways?

I'm gonna have to try it.

O, just saw a lot of people say to add pennies too.

What the hey!!

Any other fly remedies????

...water...

Water.

Water.

Water.

Notice how you type or say a word several times, and it starts to look/sound weird??  Try it with WATER.  Like how come its not pronounced with a long A?  Like waiter?  Nope.  Its wah-ter.

I am dwelling on water... because I want to start drinking it.  More of it.  Enough of it.  I think I have been dehydrated my whole life.  And used to it.

So I asked myself: 
What would it be like to be hydrated? 
With my little cells having enough water? 
With my whole body not in a drought? 
Will I lose weight? 
Will my thyroid be happier? 
Will I feel fuller? 
Will my skin get better? 
Could it impact my energy level in a positive way? 
Will I notice during my workouts? 
Will I live longer?

Even 1 of these things would make it worth it.  What's the hold up???

So I am adding that to my 40 days.  Forty days to declutter....  while creating a habit of hydration!! 

I'll drink to that!!!!

...high five for friday...

HIGH FIVE!!! 

Up high, down low, too slow Joe!!

Yay for Fridays, yay for another week closer to summer!!

Here are my High 5s for this week...

1.  My quesidilla maker...  amazing amounts of ways you can

make quick and easy "triangles" that my boys love!!

 2.  Turkey burgers!  Or anything with ground turkey. 

Tastes great, good for ya, cheaper than cow.  We like it!

3.  I am thankful for SUPER HEROES!!!  And the HOURS of entertainment and imagination stimulation the provide my family.  Drawing, dressing up like, acting out, and watching.  Yay for heroes!!

4.  Washable markers... again, hours and hours of entertainment.  So good to take digital pics of their masterpieces, so I don't have to save every single one.  And yay that it washes out - who ever invented that is a HERO!

5.  WATER.  I am working on being thankful for water... 

I need to drink more!  As you may have read, I am cutting back caffeine. 

Now I gotta add the H2O.  Gonna be working on that this week!

All right - hope you're week was great too and you get a chance to count your blessings!!  Enjoy the holiday, and THANKS to all the people who fight to protect our right to this beautiful and free life we get to live!!!
