Chance of Light Rain

Chance of Light Rain
Photo-A-Day #1533

It looks like it will stay a bit rainy off and on around here. FYI: Photo of a snake below for the faint of heart.

Today I drove to work in rain, not in rain, back in rain again. All day it was drizzly out too. I worked at my company’s newest building and boy is it a beautiful one. The entire building gets some amazing natural light all the time. Even the artwork is better in this building.If it wasn’t such a message up place to get to I’d jump at moving there. For me, to get to the building I have to either go up and take a right or go right then take a left and go up. It is diagonally away from my house. There is no direct easy route to get there and getting back is worse. So, I’ll only go occasionally. The nice thing is that there is a bike trail outside the back of the building and one day I’ll go early enough to rollerblade before work.

On the way home I decided to pop into KMart because they had a buy $50 of menswear get two free tickets to Transformers 2 promotion. I walked all over the place and could not find anything I wanted to buy let alone spend $50 on. I finally decided that $50 worth of something I didn’t need wasn’t worth $20 worth of something I wanted.

Queit night here, just hanging out while Allison is at book club. I’m going to get some comic reading done.

Here is that snake photo and another flower I took a photo of. The snake likes to hang out in the bushes along the side of the house. Eva likes to go looking for them and watch then slither around the yard, there are about 5 or 6 ones we see regularly.

I see you

Win One of Five Blu Prizes!

You have heard me talk about BluFrog Wildly Healthy Energy Drink before on this blog. Heck I even won a case of it from Martha Decker and received a case for Blogs, Brews and Belly Laughs from Jeremy Kendall, fine people who are BluFrog distributors. I first heard about BluFrog through my friend Heather, she had connected with Jeremy and through Heather we got to talking about the drink. I was really clamoring to try some because it is filled with great vitamins and it has the same caffeine as a cup of coffee and less sugar than other energy drinks.

Well, I got my chance to try it when I won a case. I drank it for a few weeks and all the while I monitored my blood sugar. I’m a type II diabetic and sugar and I are not the best of friends. I am not a doctor so I won’t tell you what the numbers were but let’s just say that I’d be happy drinking BluFrog as part of my diet. I also loved how it prevented me from the head-tilt-neck-jerk-sleepy-time-reflex that I get when I go into meetings. I was pumped and ready to listen to the most boring stuff you could throw at me. I could take it! For me it is the simple things.
