A HEALTHY MOMMY IS A HAPPY MOMMY!

Hey guys, 

  

    If you have been following me on youtube, you will know that I have just announced a new channel, I will be featuring my daily food and fitness progression.   It will be a vlogging channel where I hope to do some 'juice feasting' and exploring some alternative health options.  People seem to think that as long as you eat 'HEALTHY' that you will be ' HEALTHY'... well the real question is, What is healthy to you?    

               

           My grandmothers view of healthy is a nice juicy pork chop, smothered in canned mushroom soup and milk, with a side of starchy white potatoes, which are then boiled to extreme temps and then smothered in animal fat (also known as gravy) accompanied by a few boiled carrots!   YUMMY. ?? 

             Everyone has a version of healthy, and a lot of people seem to take the 'society exit' to things..by saying things like ... " well, its whole wheat not white so its good for me?"  well exactly my point!  What is ' Healthy'?     

           
On my  Second channel I am going to be experimenting for you! And you can follow my daily food logs on youtube and watch my progress day by day, maybe it will be inspiring for you? or maybe you can just be a supporter to help the others on there health journey.

You can see the video here...

             I am not doing this for the sole purpose of loosing weight, I want a life style change for my self and my family.
I will be posting new healthy recipes and alternatives to help both my self and anyone else who is following me , to make our transition easier.   These processed foods and unnatural ingredients have cause a lot of health problems for a lot of people. My children are exposed to more food commercials and false advertising then any other generation before it! I don't want them to have this unhealthy view on life or food or anything for that matter, and I fear that if my life continues in this downward spiral of unhealthy living and poor body choices that my children might pick them up and pass them to there children.
This is NOT  a ' diet' it is a life style change and It isn't healthy for our minds to continuously be convincing it's self that we need to do it just for the weight loss, while this is still a goal of mine.. it's not to fit into that ' cute little black dress' or to ' look better in my underwear' it is to FEEL better, awake, energized, emotionally and physically!
I am going to start up a second blog to accompany my second channel and It will be to keep track via blogging, for those of you who are not interested in following on Youtube.

this is my intro to those of you who are interested, this is featured on my main channel letting you guys know a bit about what I plan on doing in video. :) hope you enjoy

ORGANIZATION AND EASY DIY MOMMY SOLUTIONS

HELLO EVERYONE WHO IS READING THIS LONG AWAITED BLOG POST,

 I'm back , the holiday season has come to end for the most part, aside from the great  NEW YEARS EVE, event that I do not usually partake in...well...because I like to sleep? lol,  I will be keeping up with my blogging from now on !!  I just finished up with vlogmas on youtube, and if you would like to check those out you can click right here on THIS link :)

With the new year coming I have found my self thinking more and more about those RESOLUTIONS we all find our selves making around this time of year, and I have decided without debate that I MUST de-clutter and become a more organized human!  I have been looking on pintrest for some creative new 'simple living' decor and storage ideas and I have found a few I am going to share with you all.. with a bit of design diy and some decor..this is an awesome storage for short people lol...

I found it HERE

But I don't think this would work for my space, but I was thinking great for a kids room??

I have been looking for ways to improve on my ebay/etsy/online stock room, and I am thinking something simple like the link below, but maybe in a clear style bin? or colored bins for a better 'shelf apeal. ?? Hmmm


I found this HERE

after awhile of stumbling through the land of pintrest I started thinking about how to improve this big empty,'imaginationLESS' (not a real word )  playroom we have downstairs...it is white and plain and boring and we just have toys and books in totes as 'toy boxes..so I saw this...

I found this HERE

 And I am already mapping out the blueprints in my head as I type! this I think will be at the top of the 'HONEY DO' list!

Right in the next room over you would walk into my VERY dark and dungeon like laundry room
everything is CRAZY and I have miss match baskets! The whole house must think we have a laundry fairy , who magically sorts, washes and folds all the laundry I have one sloppy side 'folding table and piles of clothing that I have to sort! this made me think of  a few ideas to make it easier on our laundry fairy', and maybe give those ungrateful little slave drivers a hint .. ehhh LOL jk. but seriously.. great idea...

I found this HERE




which brings me to some much needed kitchen issues that need to be addressed, although I do have a large pantry and another one close by with a door...I have to admit, when it comes time to put away those pots and pans... I am a big FAIL! I just had matching up the sizes and stacking them like janga blocks EVERY time I need to put away or use a pot.  So it ends up just being a sloppy pile of metal and glass lids, which just avalanche out onto my feet every time I need one...  WELL let me tell you.. I just found the solution! ...
 

you can find these pins HERE and HERE

I have found so many amazing things on pintrest to help me find some organizational INSPIRATION, and I can't wait to get started on a fresh start on many paths in my life, health,fitness and all that good stuff! I will post my before and afters as I go, and will probably be making some video progression on my Youtube channel as well, so be sure to stop in and check it out, I would love to hear from you guys and see some of the organization pins you might have found!

Talk to you soon! <3
