Life Happens

Each month this year I thought I would take a few minutes to catch you all up on the things that are currently going on in our lives whether it be personal or within my blogging life.  Although there will be plenty of posts talking about all of that I just felt that this would be a great way to catch everyone up. Sort of like a summary post if you will.

In My Blogging Life

 

Actually there is a lot going on in my blogging life. I have TONS of reviews coming the next few months and I am really excited about that. If you subscribed to my newsletter, the winners of the KitchenAid Mixer are COMING SOON! I ended up having to extend the giveaway due to health issues. I also have several giveaways coming here to the blog soon as well as another newsletter one or two. 

In My Personal Life

 

If you follow along then you will know that I had a heart attack a couple of weeks ago. This has left me scrambling a bit because I wasn’t expecting it. Not that anyone ever truly is! I have congenital heart disease which means I have known there is a problem for my entire life. Which also means I really try to take care of my heart. My stress levels that sent my blood pressure through the roof  is one of the big factors to the attack. So I have been taking things a little easier. Working on getting caught up with a plan to reduce my stress (easier said than done!!)

 

 

 

With the Jeeples

JeepPhoto used with permission. By permission I mean I told him I was using and he said fine cause that’s how siblings are. 🙂

If you are new here then you may not know much about the Jeeples and while I don’t do a whole lot with them through out the year I am always busy with them during certain times of the year. Th Jeeples are the group of Jeep enthusiast that my brother belongs to. I am a member by proxy and really because I am the one who does most of the cooking when I am there. I will however be keeping you all up to date with the things that they are doing throughout the year regardless of whether I am with them or not. They have been rather busy going to various places as you can see from above. I am hoping to bring more of their pictures this year and maybe a new adventure with them of my own.
