Inspiration For the Masses
For those of you that watch reality shows you might be familiar with the TV show My Big Fat Fabulous Life. There are very few reality shows that I watch. My Big Fat Fabulous Life and Chrisley Knows Best are my favorites. My Big Fat Fabulous Life is focused around Whitney Way Thore’s journey in life. There have been 6 seasons so far, I believe. My Mother has been watching the show ever since it started but I didn’t start watching it until around 2 years ago. We always watch the show together now. Whitney Way Thore is a huge inspiration. She has had such a long journey with her…

Listen & Act
The coronavirus is causing health issues, economic issues, etc. now. Let us all try to remember that even if we don’t feel like heeding the advice of healthcare officials all that does is send not only yourself but other people downhill. Please, please, be sure to follow the advice of healthcare officials when it comes to social distance, quarantine, preventing and treating the coronavirus. If we don’t keep from spreading the virus as much as possible then the amount of people with the virus will simply increase. Coronavirus is highly contagious, so please don’t think that just because you have a strong immune system you are not at risk. You…

Coronavirus Taking Over
COVID-19, also known as the coronavirus, has caused a world wide panic due to the number of outbreaks and deaths. While it is a concern for everyone it is a bigger concern for senior citizens and those with a compromised immune system. Please, everyone, be mindful of others. If you have any symptoms of a cold or flu please don’t go near others if at all possible. It is imperative that we try our best not to spread viruses when possible. Personally speaking, the employees where I work get sick more often than they should due to customers coming in with the flu when they can 100% avoid going into…

Protein Muffin On-The-Go
Busy workers are always looking for some form of food that’s on-the-go, especially breakfast. One of Dunkin’s latest creations is their Protein Muffin, complete with pumpkin seeds on top. The protein muffin isn’t without flaws. Just like a lot of on-the-go muffins this one is high on the calorie and sugar end. However, it is also high in protein and potassium. If you’re like me and typically only eat half of a muffin then the amount of calories and sugar are cut in half. If it’s the only thing you’re eating for breakfast the calories aren’t too hard to swallow. Taste wise, Dunkin’s protein muffin is on the yummy side.…

Bookworm Moment #316
Walking into Books-A-Million over the weekend after not having been in a bookstore in a couple years is a thrilling moment for a bookworm. The not so thrilling moment? The prices! Also, the Books-A-Million location that I go to no longer has a huge book bargain section, which was my favorite section. Upon entering the store I made my way over to the stationary section before book browsing when something caught my eye. There was an astrology section. It was complete with stationary, astrology books, candles, bookmarks, etc. Of course most of the Scorpio items were sold out. Just my luck! The first bookshelf took me by surprise. It was…

All the Bright Places
Netflix released All the Bright Places February 28th, 2020. The movie is based on the novel All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven. It is surely a movie for John Green fans. If John Green, author of The Fault In Our Stars, watched All the Bright Places and wasn’t impressed then I would be shocked. Meet Violet Markey, played by Elle Fanning. Violet is just a girl in a big world that met unfortunate circumstances and is full of more grief than one person should have to deal with. Meet Theodore Finch, played by Justice Smith. Theodore had to grow up too soon and has his own plate of unfortunate…

Flu Bug Begone
Hey Readers! Sorry, I’ve been MIA for a week or more. As hard as I tried not to get the flu it eventually tackled me. One of the biggest downsides to working in an office with a flow of customers is having customers constantly knowingly coming into the office with the flu and spreading said flu. Needless to say getting the flu is not fun! I’m still not fully recovered but getting there. As soon as symptoms began to appear a trip to Walgreens was needed. After going on a virus shopping spree it must have looked like I bought out the pharmaceutical department to the cashier. Walgreens stocks must…
