How Mom Gets Some Me Time

Leave a comment

*Sponsored Content*

I know I’ve mentioned a time or two (or a dozen) in the past that being a mom of 5 doesn’t really leave me a lot of ‘me time’.  Before I became a mom, obviously I had a lot more free time and was able to do things I enjoyed.  After I became pregnant with Zack, there was a lot of fun things to do during my pregnancy.  One thing that I did, along with some fellow moms-to-be, was head to our local casino to play BINGO.

Yes, you read that correctly.  We went and sat, for hours, playing BINGO and enjoying snacks.  It was SO much fun and I certainly miss those nights.

These days, with all the new technology, I may not be able to sneak away to the bingo hall but I still manage to get my bingo fix thanks to games like Bingo Bash being available for me to play on my computer via Facebook, on my Android phone & tablet or you can play on your iPad, Kindle etc.

Bingo Bash, Bash Gaming,

How I did not discover this game sooner is beyond me since it is the #1 BINGO game in the world and has over 1.5M players daily!

I’ve certainly been enjoying playing Bingo Bash and love that they offer sweepstakes in which you can win things such as Amazon gift cards, which I LOVE to get!

Bingo Bash offers users over 341 levels to play,  sweepstakes, a new game each season like the new Solitairingo ( Solitaire + Bingo), they are the only game that has innovated classic bingo and if you are like me, you’ll enjoy it because it’s free and fun!

I’m excited because they just released their Valentine’s Room, Sweethearts Bridge (*patent pending) where a correct daub builds a bridge to brings two sweet hearts together.

Thankfully that Alex of mine enjoys bingo too! *All the years I played bingo at the local casino, I’ve never won….he won the first time I brought him*.
 
Playing bingo at the casino gets expensive and the chances of win are very low.  I like that I can enjoy my time at home and steal some time for myself to play and enter for the chance to win Amazon gift cards to buy the things I want!
 
Take some time to yourself and install the game today and start playing!

If you know me in real life (yay, lucky you!) then you know that my hair is out of control.  It’s super curly, super thick, and unfortunately, I started getting gray hair before I was in my twenties which means my hair is also color treated.

Now, being a mom with 5 kids,I don’t have a lot of time to do stuff with my hair, let alone color it on a regular basis.  In order to save money and time, I find ways to make my color last by using products like Dove Color Care Shampoo and Conditioner.

It is because of products like these that I am able to squeeze a few extra (and much needed) weeks of life out of my color before having to cover the grays.

Dove offers great videos on Walmart.com that will show you how you can get glam mom hair!  

If you are looking for a way to get that curly hair without using styling tools, fighting frizzy hair, need to recharge dry hair or just looking for some simple hair-dos, check out Blogger Jordan Reid of Ramshackle Glam and her tips and tricks for beautiful “mom” hair with the help of Dove products!  (I know I need all the extra help I can get!)

It's A Family Affair

The Family That Gets Sick Together, Stays Together

Leave a comment

You may have noticed that things have been quiet around here the last few days and that is because the entire family has been sick.

It started with me not feeling well last Thursday and by that night, both Ellie and Peanut were throwing up all night long.  By Friday night, Zack was hit and then it pretty much took down the rest of the family.

It has not been fun.

But, we are still here.  We’ve stocked up on every Lysol product out there, have been washing our hands and doing laundry like crazy and trying to scrub down and disinfect the entire house.

Since we are having a ‘snow’ day tomorrow because of the lovely artic blast that is causing us to have temps as low as -55*F below 0 I am hoping that we can get everyone healthy and get the house back in order.

Until I return, here are a few pics to hold you over!

Another new recipe for our family and another hit!  This recipe for Beef Tips and Gravy is better then what I’ve had at weddings with family style dinners and is definitely something we will be making again.  You can follow this recipe and cook day of or make it all in a freezer bag and toss it in the freezer to use at a later date.
