With my husband staying on the East Coast and telling me how beautiful it is every day, I’m more and more tempted to eventually make a trip out there. I always see stuff online about Outer Banks vacation rentals and I decided to look into it a little bit. There’s a company called Carolina Designs who leases out a lot of these GORGEOUS vacation homes out there. The prices are really reasonable which surprised me. I’ve always wanted to go on a vacation with friends and family and this would be the perfect opportunity. The one house in particular that caught my eye has a private pool and hot tub! Oh, I’d be in heaven. Add that to the fact that there is a VIDEO LIBRARY and a gameroom/sports bar with a pool table. It has a grill outside, as well as amenities for the little guests like a high chair and even a pack n play (That’s one less thing to drag with you, moms).

The more and more I look at this stuff, the more I’m tempted to just start driving, haha. Of course we’d need to plan it all, but cost wise it’s really reasonable and a week there would just melt my stress away. I think perhaps I’ll go talk to the hubby about the idea.

I’ve started drinking wine. We used to drink beer if we decided to have anything, and we’d usually have a bottle of rum around for if we wanted a mixed drink, or if we had friends over. Well, recently I’ve been trying to take better care of myself, but I do enjoy a drink sometimes. So, after doing my research, I decided to try drinking wine. I’ve tried a few different kinds, but I haven’t yet decided what I really like the best. Wine is the one alcohol that can actually be included into a diabetic diet. Of course, getting drunk every night off wine is not what they’re talking about.. maybe 1-2 glasses sometimes.

So far I’ve tried a chardonnay, which I did like. Also a merlot which was okay.. those were both wines I tested in the store. I recently bought a different bottle so we’ll see how that goes. It is quite tasty now that I’m finding more or less what I enjoy more.

I was recently given the opportunity to review a couple of products from Care Cleaning and Protection. One of those products was their Latex Gloves. While Latex gloves are mostly used in the medical field, they actually have a wide variety of uses. From cleaning around the house to projects, the uses are endless. I happened to be making a shelf to house my DVDs in which I was using a stain, and I decided that was a good opportunity to try the gloves. The result was great.. I loved that they didn’t have the powder that made my hands feel disgusting. They protected my hands well and no stain got through, which is actually something I’ve had a problem with in the past. I’ve done a video review on them.
