Twitter, My Night, and My Latest, Greatest Find!

For the past two weeks I have heard Twitter, Twitter, Twitter! So I used my trusty Google to find out what this Twitter hype is all about! Well...I found out that it is a series of status messages to let your friends (or followers OR stalkers) to know what you're doing. Well...I decided to join to see if maybe it would be something I would like...there are a lot of celebs on it, which is pretty cool I guess.

So, I'm encouraging you all to join so I'll have some followers and also someone to follow. Go to
http://twitter.com/home and add taranic...THAT'S ME!!

Now...for my eventful night last night!

I decided to go pick up a few things at Wal-Mart since I got paid. I'm trying so hard to say no to going out at lunch and taking my own. It's healthier, cheaper and easier! I decided if I blog during lunch that will give me initiative to stay here at work for lunch and not go out. So..blogger is my anti-fast food! LOL..So, I was on a quest for healthy food last night...I ended up getting some yogurt drink, Danactive with probiotics. It is supposed to boost your immune system which is fine with me, the person with no health insurance. I can't be going to the Doctor all the time! I tried it this morning and it wasn't too bad. I ended up getting the Peach flavor cause I'm pretty fond of Peach stuff. On top of drinking my Danactive I actually made a salad for lunch with ham, turkey, a little 2% cheese, cucumbers and carrots! Yay for me! And to top it off...LIGHT ranch! Go me! If only I can keep it up. I finally found a light dressing I can stand. It's made by Marzetti and it's good! I found it in the produce section in a jar. Good stuff...I can handle this! Finally a salad that doesn't have the exact amount of calories a Big Mac has! Haha!

Oh, and Nikki...I know you are looking for some good snacks for your diet. I picked up some Slim Fast bars...Chocolate Peanut Nougat. Tastes a lot like a Snickers...mmm...Guilt Free at its best! And another favorite of mine, the good ol' childhood favorite, Goldfish crackers! Savannah and Carson may have some you can sneak a few of! LOL!

Now enough about food before I get hungry...

You know I couldn't go to Wal-Mart without buying a beauty product...I was over by the vitamins...yes, the vitamins. When I looked down I saw a little stick of something. Vitamin E moisturizing stick...98 cents!! I bought this stuff for my chapped lips that I can't get rid of. OMG!! It feels so silky on my lips! And another good thing about it...it's pure vitamin E...so you know exactly what is on your lips and you know there is no harmful additives that you could swallow! Vitamin E is known for it's healing properties. I have used it for a long time. I used to take the liquid gel capsules and break them and just apply it to cuts, scrapes, whatever. Great stuff. It's cheap, safe and natural! I definitely encourage you to go buy this! Just take a look at it real good before you buy it as they are not sealed. Make sure some kid didn't decide to stick their finger in it or write on the shelf with it! (Ha ha...I used to be a kid...I know these things.)


And here is a pic of it...(sorry for the quality-used my phone)

One other tip for the day, if you put something on your lips to moisturize them, you need to make sure you have all the flakie stuff off them. Otherwise you are just putting stuff on already dead skin, and that doesn't do any good.There are two ways to do this. Either you can take a toothbrush and GENTLY rub it on your lips...they make a great lip exfoliating tool or you can make your own lip scrub with sugar and olive oil. Just get it to a pasty like consistency and rub it on your lips. Now your ready to moisturize!

Hope you found some useful stuff today! I'll probably post later on today as well...probably at lunch! Love ya all!

  2. Yeah, me either really but I decided I'll try it. It is just like facebook statuses. I do like though on here and on there that there's not all that trashy crap like on myspace. You know those pic comments and stuff...happy Hump Day and all with girls in thongs...I don't wanna see that! Geez! I may come see you this evening =)
