Uuummmm ... I'm sorry?

Okay so you guys knooooow how much I love NPR so a lot of my conversations start with "so I heard today on NPR...". okay so I heard today on NPR a story about methods of achieving success in product development. Blue rooms seemed key ... as well as having a little freedom to do your own thing. Okay so maybe I'll paint a room sky blue and take a little time to do something spur of the moment. Makes sense. I'll be sure to pencil that in. Except for the part where they said red rooms were also effective for problem solving ... Ummm is it blue or red people? The same they are not ...

Something I also heard today was the fact that at one time Proctor & Gamble had more PhDs than any other company -- we'll say in the US because to say in the world just sounds wrong. Anywho I'm always thinking of companies I'd like to invest in. Only problem is I think of these lists it's a list of unicorns I'd like to own. I don't ever do anything about it!!! What's up with that?!?!?!  Such a 70's baby!!  I know what it is though. I seriously looked up P&G while watching Duck Dynasty and chomping down some bbq chips (I counted out a serving earlier ... this time, not so much) ... back to P&G: So you can invest in the company through a broker or directly from the company. I need help guys. seriously ... between the investment options, fees and Medallion Signature Guarantee I'm confused. But I'm GOING to invest in some individual stock before the end on this year. I am. I don't care if you don't believe me. In other news: I got four new cameras this week. New to me. Polaroids .. SOOO excited .. Thanks Scott! More on that some other time. Back to Duck Dynasty now and building my stock portfolio some other time ... 

FINALLY!

So I guess I must have just been waiting to lose all my privacy before I came back to Google... 7:39 and they haven't come to take me away yet ...

So so sorry I haven't posted in a while. I'm sure all three of you really missed me ;) ... my laptop d-d-died and I had to gather my pennies for a new one. My FIRST new one to be exact (all previous have been hand-me-downs). Reminds me of the days when I'd get hand-me-down sneakers  from my sisters. Hey, it just wasn't a high priority. But I will tell you what IS

GETTING FIT!! ... I MEAN DIESEL - CUT - RIPPED - TEN!!!!!! One of my fitness consultants - lol - said I need to start working out 6 days a week - 5 at the least ... ... well, desperate times call for desperate measures and since smoking crack is not a option, 5 to 6 days a week workout has to be. Yes, that's how it goes - exercise or dangerous drugs. At least that's how it appears as I skip fat-burner ad after fat-burner ad in  a popular fitness magazine. i. must. resist.

okay so this is the workout I did today - POP Pilates ... I really needed to take it easy on my knees today ... the workout did grant reprieve for my dear kneecaps. My abs and glutes served their time.

Now I must say, even in the midst of all this fat-burning talk, I do wish I was going to be in Charleston for the Food and Wine Festival this weekend.

I'd just have to lunge from one food tent to another...
