HGH Pills
I have been reading so much about hgh pills and how the aid in weight loss. So many people are seeing effects of it and what is awesome is that it seems to stay off. HGH is a hormone and once used, you can burn calories daily and lose up to a couple of pounds per day. Wow. This may be part of my new years resolution.

Staying healthy
As a mom, it's not only my job to keep my kids healthy, but I need to make sure that I am also in good shape health wise. There was a time that I felt very sluggish and just not good, chasing after the kids all day, I knew I had to do something. I realized that I can take one of those multivitamin daily and feel better and it worked. Not a day goes by that I don't take them, I need them and they are part of my daily ritual.

Pumpkin Chocolate Cheesecake
Heaven. I tried these not too long ago and these are a must. I have been dabbling with pumpkin recipes since I am not a fan and have a few pumpkins left over from Halloween, so Im trying new things. This is a keeper and might just go in my turkey day menu.
Ingredients
1-1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened
1-3/4 cups sugar
3 eggs
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 ounces semisweet chocolate, cut up, or 1 cup semisweet chocolate pieces
2 tablespoons butter
1-1/4 cups sour cream
1/4 cup sugar
Grated fresh nutmeg and/or milk chocolate or semisweet chocolate curls
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly grease a 13x9x2-inch baking pan; set aside. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup sugar. Stir in the 1/3 cup melted butter. Press mixture evenly into bottom of the prepared baking pan; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine cream cheese and the 1-3/4 cups sugar. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating on low speed after each addition just until combined. Beat in pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and salt on low speed just until combined. Remove 1-1/4 cups of the mixture.
3. In a small heavy saucepan, combine the 6 ounces chocolate and the 2 tablespoons butter. Cook and stir over low heat until melted. Whisk chocolate mixture into the 1-1/4 cups pumpkin mixture. Pour over crust, spreading evenly. Bake for 15 minutes.
4. Carefully pour the remaining pumpkin mixture over baked chocolate layer, spreading evenly. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes more or until filling is puffed and center is set. Cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes.
5. In a small bowl, combine sour cream and 1/4 cup sugar. Gently spread over cookies. Cool completely. Cover and chill for at least 3 hours. Cut into bars.* Before serving, sprinkle with nutmeg and/or chocolate curls. Makes 24 to 36 bars.
*Test Kitchen Tip: To make triangle-shape bars, cut the cookies crosswise into four strips. Then cut each strip into five triangles (you'll end up with two half-triangles from the ends of each strip).
To Make Ahead: Bake and chill cookies as directed; cut into bars. Place in a single layer in an airtight container; cover. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Do not freeze

Work and Sleep
11.18.2010
I love working from home, but one of the things that I find myself doing is not sleeping. I will stay up all hours of the night because this is when the kids are sleeping and so is hubby, also known as no distractions. The truth is I do work best in the wee hours of the night and since its that time of year where I am making the most money for the holidays, I need some sleep pills to help me hit the pillow, otherwise, I will not be sleeping willingly on my own.

Purchase Scrubs Online
11.16.2010
I remember when I was younger and my mother would bring us along while she shopped for her scrubs,in this day and age you can purchase soft cotton scrubs online. This is perfect because where we lived, we had to travel a good distance to even find a store that carried uniforms for nurses and anyone who worked in the health field.
If you or someone you know want to know where to buy uniforms , buy uniforms online or buy uniforms like these, pass the link along. The site looks very simple and easy to navigate which makes things easier once ready to check out and make your order.
To be on the safe side, I would suggest to others to buy a set of scrubs to alternate through out your work week. This make it easy once its time to wash the other.

Mysurvey is my fave,I noticed that they added many prizes and options,including being paid via paypal. They used to send out checks, nothing wrong with that but paypal is a plus.
Here is payment proof:

Safety Work Supplies
11.04.2010
I have been home trying to work and there are some workers getting some construction down cross the street, very annoying. I took it upon myself to see what they are doing since I can not concentrate on anything else for the second day in row. I noticed they took off their safety gloves
but kept everything else on. I would always be sure to keep those gloves on, you just never know what could happen while on the job, that is what they are for, to help work safely. I need to find something else to occupy my time, I am thinking too much into it.

Freelance Work From Home
Many people are working from home whether it is full time or part time in addition to something that they have outside the home. I tell people about odesk and ow it is a wonderful place to start and get paid. I have used odesk before and it was a nice egg in my many baskets and would always recommend it to any and everyone. You can choose which categories that you want to work in (there are so many) and sift through to see what there.

Teeth Whitening
I have never been a fan of these but I figured why not. I drink so much coffee and dark beverages that it is starting to show, I simply can not have that happen, my smile is one of my best features I believe. So I decided to go with the crest white strips and they are fantastic. I see drastic results and on top of that I also use baking soda while brushing my teeth, it helps tremendously. I do recommend the crest white strips and baking soda are a great combo to get those whites pearly.

Gift Cards or Gifts?
11.01.2010
Someones birthday is coming up, what do you get them?is it cheap to get a gift card? Should that replace the actual gift itself? Many people may seem to think that getting a gift card as opposed to a gift is cheap. I think that both is a great way especially the gift card, if you know somewhere that they like to shop, make them have the option of what to get for themselves because the gift that you buy for the may not be what they want.
