ZzzQuil Review

Today's review will be coming from one of my daughters who sometimes have trouble falling to sleep.

Zzzquil is great for those times when you need a little extra help sleeping. I love that it's non-habit forming. It takes me 30 minutes to an hour to fall asleep. When I get up, I still feel a little groggy so that wouldn't be beneficial for work or school days unless I go to sleep earlier than normal. The price is also reasonable. 

• ZzzQuil is not for pain. It is just for Sleep.
• When taking ZzzQuil, you should give yourself 7-8 hours to sleep. 
• Take as directed. 
• Intended for occasional use.

As with any over the counter medication, please consult your physician before use. 

Thanks Influenster for this sample.

Be the Best You

We are perfectly imperfect
and beautiful within
because beauty isn’t skin deep
it’s deeper than the skin

We are who we allow ourselves to become
we get what we give, we give what we get
so give it your all
and don’t ever give up

Be the best you
be the person you want to be
just remember to be yourself
not who others want to see

This day is yours
it belongs to no one but you
put one foot in front of the other
and take a step closer
to making all your dreams come true

You are perfectly imperfect
and this is okay
because no one is flawless
no one is perfectly made

You are beautiful within
and your smile reflects
the love inside your heart
So, share a grin
and let others see who you are

Be the best you
just be who you are inside
be the person that makes you happy
and live your best life

Enough is Enough!

I am here today with an EXTREMELY heavy heart. I'm sad, angry, disappointed and most of all my soul is deeply disturbed because of the senseless acts by those who were sworn to protect and serve the community. 

How are we suppose to feel SAFE and TRUST law enforcement officers when "they" are the ones doing the unwarranted killings?  Something MUST BE DONE!! We can no longer sit around and wait to see if things will get any better or remain silent. We MUST speak up and DEMAND a change!!! The officers involved MUST be held accountable for their actions as well.
 
We NEED justice for the victims!
 
My heart goes out not only to Alton Sterling and Philando Castile's family but to all of those who have lost a loved one to these heinous acts. May their soul rest peacefully.

Police brutality must STOP!

Thanks Fitbit!

I was initially disappointed to find out my Fitbit Charge HR was longer working. I could not figure out why it would not charge or do anything for that matter. After troubleshooting and getting frustrated, I decided to contact the company. 

Once speaking with a representative about my problem, she decided to troubleshoot once again. She proceeded to inform me that I would in deed qualify for a replacement and the company would be shipping me out a new one as soon as possible. Needless to say, I was extremely happy to hear! 

I was really enjoying my fitbit until that unfortunate circumstance but I'm excited to get back to using it to help towards my fitness goals.

 

 

Thanks fitbit for great customer service and honoring your warranty replacement plan without a hassle. I am now looking into the fitbit aria and fitbit blaze.  I am determine to stay on this fitness journey.

A Marriage Prayer

Lord, be in this marriage
In a special way,
May we feel Your presence
Each and every day.

Grant us both good humor
To surpass our coming years;
May there always be much laughter,
May there always be less tears.

Give us strength and courage
To follow in Your will,
To trust You in the valley
As we do upon the hill.

Give us both the eyes of love
So we'll always see
The goodness in each other,
Secure us, Lord, in Thee.

Give us words of kindness, Lord,
Help us both to live
So our lips are ever quick
In saying, "I forgive."

Give us hearts that beat as one,
Bind us ever near;
May our love grow deeper, Lord,
With each passing year.

Lord, be in this marriage,
Keep our love brand new;
May we love each other, Lord,
The same way that *You* do.

Wisdom Wednesday

Thank you Lord for giving me strength when I am weary, hope when I am disappointed, and peace when I am anxious. 

Isaiah 40:29-31New King James Version (NKJV)

²⁹ He gives power to the weak,
And to those who have no might He increases strength.
³⁰ Even the youths shall faint and be weary,
And the young men shall utterly fall,
³¹ But those who wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.

Only By Grace...

Happy Ressurection!

Why do you seek the living among the dead?  He is not here, but is risen! 
Luke 24:5-6 (NKJV)

Robitussin Review

I received three coupons from Crowdtap to review Robitussin. I was extremely happy because Robitussin is one of my all time favorite cough medicines.

One coupon allowed me to try one 3 oz. Robitussin 12 Hour Cough Relief product any flavor for free and two coupons for $3 off a future purchase of the12 Hour  Relief or a Robitussin DM Max 8 oz product.

 

The extended release 12 Hour Cough Relief comes in grape and orange flavors. I was able to find it at my local Kroger for $ 9.99 and I decided on the grape flavor. Oh, and be prepared to show ID when purchasing this product because as stated on the side of the box you must be 18 years of age to purchase.

I was so glad to have this because I have been having  a terrible cough during the night.

 So, before I went to bed I gave it a try. I must say it taste great and doesn't leave a horrible after taste. I have to say that it also worked for my cough. I was able to have a good night sleep. I wished I had this sooner!

TASTYKAKE Minis Review

I was so happy to receive a package from Influenster today or should I say my family was REALLY  happy since they are the ones who are going to be eating these treats.

How the items were packaged

Included inside the box, was a box of Tastykake Minis Cupcakes in Peanut butter flavor, Tastykakes minis Koozie, Tastsykake party hat and coupons.

Party hat and Koozie

 Inside the package you will find three mini cupcakes.
These are the perfect size for lunch boxes or for those want a little something sweet.  If you're looking for a light dessert, this would be great!

My family really enjoyed these and said they were very moist and sweet. I was also told to buy them again.
