Go Green & Blogger Spot Light

I was reading a little tid-bit in Fitness Magazine{which I couldn’t find online, sorry!) the other day about using cash instead of a card to pay for meals when you go out to eat, because when spending CASH verses just using your card, you tend to order less food, you skip the appetizer, drinks, dessert etc. Hubs and I have already been doing this and it’s true. You not only save money, you save on calories too.

You’ll be just fine having the cobb-salad. So why do you often add on chips & dips AND a lemonade? Because when you bring your card, you don’t FEEL the money leave your bank account. There’s something about that hard-earn green cash in your pocket that makes you protect it more, and you really do think about your food choices. I dare you, go green, try it. You’ll notice a difference in what you order when you’re paying with cash on hand. :)

And have I mentioned that I love birthday month?… I think I did before.. maybe… in case you missed last Tuesday, check it out here.

The Blogger Spot Light for this week is: My sweet friend Melissa.

Melissa and I met earlier this past March in a Financial Peace University classes Hubs & I took. I am so glad I met Melissa, she is such an awesome friend and I’ve loved getting to know her and her Husband more. And YOU should get to know her blog. Melissa is a runner. She’s training for the Women’s Nike Half-Marathon and I am SO  excited for her!

Melissa has been training all summer long, through this awful gross humid Texas heat, waking up at crazy O-clock in the morning to get her run in before the sun would shine. She seriously impresses the bananas outta me! Be sure to check out Melissa blog and send her some encouragement on her training and quickly approaching race! :) Love ya Mel!!

So tell me, who is your blogger spot-light this week?

It’s Birthday MONTH! {Blogger Spot-Light}

September 01, 2009 7 comments

Happy September my friends! My FAVORITE MONTH, can you guess why? ;) Yep, it’s Birthday month for me. September 22 is around the corner and I’ll be 27 years old.

27.

I remember being 7 thinking 27 was SO FAR away. Sheesh. :) I love life, and I kindly welcome 27.

So I was thinking, birthdays {for me and other people} are always a time to tell that person how you’re glad they’re here on this earth and make that person feel important a special right? Well, in honor of birthday Month and since my Birthday will be on a Tuesday this year, every Tuesday in the Month of September I’m going to spot light a blogger and tell you why I think they’re important and special, and I want to invite you to do the same… You can link up below on MckLinky and tell us what blogger you want to tell the world about.

The blogger I want to share with ya’ll, I found through another blog and was curious by the name, which took me to fabulous Beth at discom-BOB-ulated Runng:

Beth is a runner. Disciplined, driven, determined. {I wanna be like her when I grow up.} She writes about her running adventures and has such a hilarious sense of humor, I find myself cracking up while reading her posts, good stuff ya’ll. One thing I like about Beth is she’s so down to earth, she can wake up at the crack O’dawn {lucky morning person} and pound out many miles and she doesn’t have a running chip on her shoulder. {ever met one of those? They’re not many, but they exist :| } I appreciate her, she’ll answer my silliest of questions and encourage me along the way. She’s got a great heart too, her and her sister ran a 5K this past Father’s Day in honor of her Dad who passed away two years ago, for me, that was so awesome to read about.  If you’re not reading her blog, you should, get to know my blogging friend. You’ll love it, you’ll laugh, you’ll be inspired and you’ll get to know about an awesome person!!

So tell me, who are some blogs out there that you want to share?
