I Need Younger Looking Skin

My skin actually looks pretty good, but I have fallen off the wagon in terms of doing anti-aging activities. I did start taking vitamins again recently, so that is a start. But I used to be vigil about skin care, but that was before law school. My life can be divided into pre-law school and post law school. Once I started law school, things like that fell away.

But now I am done and anxious to start again. I am thinking about getting on a skin care system, so want to research some of them like Cindy Crawford's skin care system and some of the others. I really need to
learn some of the more recent anti-aging skin tips, since things have changed since I was on top of all that info. There seems to be so many products out there, it is really hard to know what is what. I am going to read up on some of the European anti-aging systems and see what they offer. My face looks pretty good, but my hands have caught up with me. I need to figure out what to do to make them look better. I have heard you can tell a woman's age by her hands. Oh no!

Where To Go On Vacation This Summer

I live for vacation and I go on different types. I like to explore new cities and countries, and I also like to visit family and friends. Then I like to go to the beach. A good year is when I do all of the above. Last year, I got to go to both Hilton Head and Destin. Both were great---fantastic beach trips. This year, a friend and I are thinking about getting one of those Outer Banks rentals. I have never been to the Outer Banks but have heard a lot of good things about it. It would be fun to try out a new beach and explore the surrounding area. Think I might check into it.

Time To Get A New Phone

I am hoping to get a new phone soon and want a smart phone. The trouble is, what kind? I was looking online today and started feeling overwhelmed. My first thought was an iphone, but then I like the android keyboard. I can get a blackberry for free, and I have heard about the blackberry playbook. The problem is getting a phone is sort of like a commitment, at least a two-year commitment, as that is how long my contract will be. So I want to get the right one. I need a phone that connects to the internet and that I can do messaging on. (My current phone is awful to use for messaging, and I refuse.) But I would like to get on board with that. I am kind of excited. I think a smart phone will open opportunties for me.

Working Out More!

I am happy to say that I have been working out more, going to the Y, mainly walking on the treadmill. I need to ramp it up, both going more and spending more time while I am there. When I am there, I have been watching the TV on the treadmill, which helps me stay there longer. I might actually take one of my
MP3 players and listen to music instead sometime. I like watching TV while exercising, but sometimes I think I work out better when I am listening to peppy music. Think I will do that next time I go.

Country Music Vacations

I live in Nashville, so am very aware of our competition Branson and Branson vacations. At least, it seemed like Branson was our competition for a while. But I haven't heard that much about that lately. Maybe the two towns have each found their niche in the country music vacation and are more complementary now rather than competitors? I have never been to Branson and would like to go. I would like to see how it compares to Nashville.

How To Get My Dog To Behave

I love my dog Stoopot, but he does not know how to behave. The worst thing is, he pulls on the leash, and he is strong. He doesn't look that strong, so it is a little deceiving. But if you aren't paying attention, he could pull you down. I have to be really careful when it is icy outside. I am thinking some dog training advice would help with this. He is not a young pup, but am hoping that maybe old dogs can learn new tricks. I am reluctant to let others walk him, because of this problem, but it would help me out if I thought others could do this too. Something to think about.

I Have No Trouble Sleeping Now

I am usually so sleep deprived these days, I fall asleep usually as soon as my head hits the pillow. I really need to get more sleep. I hear that you need at minimum 5 straight hours. Since I fall asleep on the couch most nights now, I hardly ever get 5 straight hours. That is stupid and totally avoidable. I am not going to do that anymore!There was a time when I was younger that I did have insomnia. I had a very hard time sleeping, and I think I went into depression. I probably could have used some sleep pills. Luckily, I came out of it on my own after a number of months. But that was way too long. Not being able to sleep for such a long time can have really bad effects on you.
