How To Tell You If Spend Too Much Time Online

December 31, 2012 By Jendi Leave a Comment

When I first started blogging it seemed like the majority of bloggers had desktop computers. It was rare to hear of someone blogging in a coffee shop and definitely not from a smart phone. Of necessity we couldn’t spend as much time “connected” to the online world. I only checked email once a day {gasp}! Now there are tablets, data plans…on the way out of the store my husband noticed that Sears advertised free wi-fi! There’s hardly any reason to be away from email for a couple hours. Who needs instant messaging when we can reply to emails instantly?

Occasionally, you might realize that your vehicle needed inspected 3 months ago and you can’t remember the last time your child had a bath. You call your gardens a weed preserve and don’t need curtains on your windows because they are opaque with dirt.

Read the 10 signs in my post on TypeAParent.com and leave a comment if you have first hand experience with any of the signs!

Staying Healthy On The Road Again

June 22, 2011 By Jendi Leave a Comment

By the time you read this we will be cruising along in our Suburban on the way to the Type A Conference. I’ve spent the last couple days crazily trying to get everything ready. [I hope I didn't forget anything.] It was sketchy for a bit that we would be able to afford the trip until I got a sponsor.

We are very grateful that Doug from Fitness Weight Loss Center is sponsoring our trip. Joe and I got to meet him when we went to Baltimore. This is my favorite part of his about page:

I’ve started this Website with the two primary goals – (1) too keep myself immersed in a healthy lifestyle of proper diet, nutrition and regular physical exercise and (2) to help as many others as I can to reach their healthy lifestyle goals through proper diet, nutrition and regular physical exercise.

There is a lot of great information there that makes me think every time I visit his site. He even has info about eating healthy while traveling that I’m going to try to keep in mind. I struggle with that for us and the kids.

Now that I know we can afford a place to sleep and food to eat all I have to worry about is doing good during my presentation on video editing!

If you stop by FitnessWeightLossCenter would you do me a favor and leave a nice comment? Thanks so much!
