2006-12-25T01:37:00.000-06:00

I wanted to be sure I wished everyone a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!!

I also wanted to share an experience that happend to me on the way back from seeing my mom VERY early Sunday morning.... I had paid a visit to my Gramma's grave on my way back. I wished her a Merry Christmas amoungst saying other personal things... Awhile passed & I saw the most brilliant shooting star, it had a long bright tail, & before it was done, flickered a sec. then disappeared.

I hope this is a sign of better things to come! As it's been going on 3 years+ of bad crap going on!!

I am not sure what one calls this birthday this year.... I been calling it MY YEAR!! 07-07-07!! I just hope THIS is THE ONE!! & it continues!!

Something To Check Out!!

2006-12-22T04:19:00.000-06:00

I came across this via a friend, who also takes this juice on a daily basis, & as I wrote in earlier posts, my mom has health problems too. If I can help others with health problems too, then I am glad to do it..... Please read on! Any information you would like or to order please contact Rebekah!

Some information about the Himalayan Goji Juice - my mom is taking it on a daily basis and having much success in detoxifying her system and getting rid of all the chemicals she accumulated in her body from working at Red Wing Shoe Factory.

Most of the info I have is written material which I will get to you via email or snail mail, whichever you prefer (meaning if you're reading this from my Blog here, feel free to look thru the links provided!)

In the meantime here's the links to my website and a couple of other websites that give other background information. My website is http://www.healthierlives.freelife.com/ You just need to click on North America on the map and then you'll be in the company website. You can view product info, including some videos, and business info. You can also place an order there to, but it might be best to call me to help you the first time.

This juice is delicious! And the most nutrient dense juice you can ever buy! And the best thing is Freelife has a 90-day money back guarantee. In other words, you can drink the juice for 90 days and if you decide you have not noticed any improvement in your health, they will refund all your money!

The next website to check out is http://www.gojihealthstories.com/ Here you will find many testimonies from people whose health conditions improved or disappeared after drinking Himalayan goji juice regularly over a period of time. Another website is http://www.gojicopycats.com/ - This website is important because since Freelife has started marketing the Himalayan Goji Juice, many other companies have started selling goji berries and goji juice also. However, these juices are not made in the manner Freelife uses (which does not pasteurize the juice or any other kind of process which would kill the nutrient density of the berry).

Further, Dr. Earl Mindell (who developed the juice extraction technique) uses only the best quality berries - the are tested with a spectrometer prior to selection for the juicing process to make sure the highest nutrient quality is in that berry.

Consequently, the other juices do not have the same high level of nutrition you will find in the Himalayan Goji juice produced by Freelife.Finally, if you want you can learn more by going to http://www.gojitalks.com/ and select the Product training tab. Here you can listen to numerous conference calls by Doctors informing listeners about the Himalayan Goji Juice and the benefits they and their patients have experienced from it. (Dr. Rica's calls are really good - but then all of them are good and interesting.)

Please contact me with any further questions - as well as your address and phone number. I look forward to talking with you!

Also be sure to tell Rebekah where you heard about this (ie: tzbug's Blog!! ;-)

I want to get this as far & wide as possible!

Sums It All Up Doncha Think!?

2006-12-16T14:06:00.000-06:00

I came across these while searching for pics yesterday, & I wanted to put them on my blog! I feel fortunate to have found them! Amazing what cool things you can find on the myspace pages! I tried to figure it out once... LOL!! It seems like it's sooooo involved! I'll have to try and sit down one day to figure it all out! I like how you can really customize it! (Was why I started this blog thing in the first place!) I'm not very happy with the FEW templates there are for this! I want my own space online & really make it my own, to reflect who I am & show off creativity! I really like these, hope you do too! (I know the female population will!!)

Where's the Beef? Right Here!!

2006-09-29T22:50:00.000-05:00

While talking to people today, got me thinking (of course!)... this one gal was telling me how she changed Majors, because her parents were paying for college. I cannot believe in this day and age this would still be going on!! I mean keeping your grades up is one thing... but choosing a Major JUST because THEY say so... sorry that is wrong on SO MANY levels!!!

Then this other lady was telling me about her fight against breast cancer... I felt angered for her too!! (we women HAVE to stick together after all!!!) that the Dr. told her she had the lump for 8 years or so. She seemed surprised, since she goes in EVERY year for an exam (she discovered the lump herself too!) The Dr. told her that the ONLY reason they found it now, was because she had an MRI. The tumor was the size of a fist! Now shouldn't it be that an MRI SHOULD be used as part of early detection/exams, if tests FAIL to catch it!? As a woman I was outraged for her!

She was telling me even though she was upset by all this, she DIDN'T want to PISS OFF any of the Dr.'s... I say WHO CARES!!! I do understand where she's coming from on this, but THEY have to understand NOT only the disease, BUT the patient is JUST THAT! A PERSON!! The emotions this woman is feeling... besides the disease... all they seem to treat the disease... NOT the person (emotions that go along with it.)

I have always said Dr.'s need courses in COMMUNICATION!! This is THE biggest beef I have with the Medical comunity. It's all stemmed from communication... just doesn't seem to be DONE/EXECUTED very well! Except in THEIR own language of which THEY understand!!

No wonder Dr.'s can be frowned upon... Lawyers too! (THAT is another one I will coment on at another time!!)

I have many things that bug me... and form very strong opinions on!! I will share them in my Blog as I continue to add posts!

=)

Now to Get Started...

2006-09-29T22:02:00.000-05:00

I am not so sure how personal I want to get with this Blog thing, but I guess if I don't I won't get much feedback/help with this Blog. Which after all IS the point is it not!?

I have been @ an odd point in my life going on 3 years now... things have been spiraling out of control. I had been going to school since 2002, and working, trying to move along as we all try to do.

Then my Mom's health problems had to be dealt with as well as some personal issues had arisen too. So, one by one things seem to unravel - job, eventually school.

To try and make a long story short, I am still dealing with the fallout of things in my life, and needing to rebuild a job, school... and some sort of a (personal/social)life and in general.

I do not have kids, but I DO give credit to those who do. Whether a single parent or otherwise, it's some job! I am not dealing with this role reversal either. But I am the only child, and want to help my Mom all I can.

I need some feedback about networking for jobs, as well as going back to school. I want to be able to complete it and move on to better things!

The first school was pretty much for the location, thought I'd get generals out of the way, and move on to the next school and be able to focus on the core classes. (I didn't like what I was going for majorwise.) I found a school in the Cities, but again, they had a program I wanted to go for... then they dropped the program not even a full semester. I was devastated to say the least!!

I was doing the FULL time work, PART time school for the stint of my college career so far... Trudging through during the lack of a job, and I have been wanting to try the opposite - PART time work, & FULL time school... with working part time right now * NO school... I am not getting by it seems! I need some resources to help me through this tough time, and looking after my Mom as well!

Thoughts welcome!!

Cosmic Void ?'s

2006-09-29T20:50:00.000-05:00

Oh where to start!? I have been told before how I ask thought provoking questions... was partly why I also started this Blog in the first place. I want to hear from others in Blog/Cyberland to get thoughts and opinions from not only friends, but those who do not have the predisposition of knowing me. Nothing to sugarcoat, or saying what YOU THINK I want to hear. Genuine. I heard it said that it starts with being personal... Not exactly sure where this Blog will turn/go, but onward and upward!

I am finding things to spark my thoughts everyday. I started a paper journal way back in High School, due to a teacher requiring us to do one for class. The other thing that stuck with me from H.S was this assignment we had to do about "Who Are You?" (nooooo it's not continuing from "Alice in Wonderland" from when the Caterpillar asked that to Alice...)

We were to describe ourselves to someone who never met us before... the example given by our teacher was an alien from another world. I hope I evoke thought and in return gain info and insight as well!

Some Good Quotes I Want to Share

2006-09-29T18:05:00.000-05:00

What I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it – Hugh Mulligan

We are given a mouth that closes and ears that don’t – which should tell us something.

Humor is one of the few things in life which we should take seriously.

Wisdom is knowing what to do next, skill is knowing how to do it, and virtue is doing it.

Attitude is a little thing, but it makes a big difference.

Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity we have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand- and melting like a snowflake. Let us use it before it’s too late. – Marie Beyon Ray

The key to successful leadership today is influence not authority. – Kenneth Blanchard

Be bold and courageous. When you look back on your life, you’ll regret the things you didn’t do more than the ones you did.

Courage doesn’t always roar. Some times courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says… I’ll try again tomorrow.

Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. - Edgar Allen Poe

Anyone Else Having Problems With Their Blog Page?!

2006-09-16T23:26:00.000-05:00

I know I have not done much with this in awhile, pretty new to this (the MySpace thing drives me INSANE!! Trying to figure out how to customize it all!!). I see the Blog thing will be NO exception! I do not like that my pic & links and other navigation areas are at the BOTTOM of the page, and not along side of my page like it first started out to be! Well, this is what I get for being a latebloomer! This is a work in progress people!!

SOME EXAMPLES OF PERFECT MEN

2006-08-27T23:34:00.000-05:00

THE most PERFECT Man!! Tom Hanks! If ALL MEN could be patterned after him! We Cancers ROCK!! I have been a fan since his Bosom Buddies days! I saw that show & I was immediately hooked! & I thought at that time that he was going to be a HUGE star one day!! To work with him & receive the honors he has would be a dream come true for me!

Another fellow Cancerian! John Cusack! He also manages to stay out of those ridiculous tabloids! In the industry he's in, can be a pretty big feat to do!

Jeremy Piven seems to be John's cohort, they've been in many films together! I love The Pivs because he's got a great sense of humor and seems so relaxed and cool with who he is; again with the idustry he;s in... is a rare jewel to find a guy such as him!

Networking!

2006-08-27T18:42:00.000-05:00

I have no idea why it took me so long to start this... I wanted to kinda jump right in this, and network!

I am speaking in part here for my Mom. She has Celiac Disease called Celiac Sprue. She's always loved food and cooking it. She has had a dream for some time to make and market them for people, no matter if they were on a special diet or not.

We have been given the advice of starting small (which is common sense), perfecting the recipes, and get them into some of the different health food stores.

My question is where can I find/get the bottles and the labels for them!? I am not the most business savvy, but I want to help my Mom she's done so much for me, I want this to happen for her!!

I also need to know how we can get some money for this endevour too, and some business help, so she can get this idea of hers off the ground. I know there is some help for women entrepreneurs, and I would like some legitimate resources for this as well!

Any and all help with this is greatly appreciated!
