Forever Flex Stability Ball

This has to be one of the best inventions ever. I hate exercise. There I said it. I am overweight and need to do something about it, but I hate exercise. There I said it again.

A friend tried to get me to join a gym, sorry a fitness club. Another told me to try riding a bike and that wasn't happening my balance sucks. Walking is okay but its not going to work out much. I do not know how to swim and that leaves what? Drastic surgery or me just staying the way I am? No! And again NO!

I asked my physician what he thought about this type of product before I ever agreed to do a product review and he said it couldn't hurt to try. So here we are...me vs the ball.I had seen these in fitness clubs, yoga classes, etc. so now it's my turn.

When I got this and unpacked it I immediately noticed a difference from the ones I had seen others use. It seemed thicker. It came with everything you needed to start. The ball, the air pump, an extra valve closure and a remover tool for the valve. It also had very concise instructions for the initial filling up of the ball and it came with a great PDF to download and print of all the various exercises you can do on the ball. Once I got started and realized that this product made exercise fun, there was no stopping me!

The easiest way is to start slow and work your way up. I started with the sitting on the ball to see if I could balance. Slowly rolled backwards and then to see if I could get up again. Then there were the ab exercises and the versions with weights. I am 2 weeks into it and have started working on the leg exercises. I have absolutely noticed a difference and so have my friends and family. All in all I love this and I keep it in my office to use on a daily basis.

Strong, Functional Umbrella

This is absolutely the best umbrella I have owned in a long time! It is functional and fashionable! I bought the turquoise blue because I am so tired of the sea of black umbrellas I see every time it rains. I wish more people would have bright colored umbrellas to brighten up those dreary rainy days. But I regress... This umbrella is different from the moment you get it home. You can see the difference in just the opening of it when you see the sleeve it comes in and the material the sleeve is made of. The umbrella is made of that same material. It is thicker than your standard umbrellas you can see that and the material feel is soft yet durable. When you see the handle it has the auto open/close button and a wrist strap. The feel of the handle is almost like those plush microfiber materials yet made of plastic. It felt very comfortable in hand and did not slip. When you finally open the umbrella there is a black 'powdercoat' on...

The Scent of Christmas - All Year!

I love the smells of Christmas! Pine trees, cold air, snow, and of course, Peppermint! I recently discovered the benefits of pure essential oils for health, wellness and home uses. It was recommended to me that I try using an oil product in my diffusers/humidifiers in order to help clear up my sinuses. Right now it is cold and flu season although it is unseasonably warm in the NorthEast. I found this product and researched the company and learned a lot about them and the products they make. They are community oriented and based in the United States. I have used this now for a few weeks and find that my friends were spot on. It soothes my nasal issues and I find that I breathe easier. The scent is strong but not overbearing. Some scents can make you cough and your eyes burn, but not these. I find it brings great memories of Christmastime and heath and home. It also is great to ward off those little rodents in your h...

True Coffee Deserves True Flavor

My old friend Crowdtap is at it again. They have been partnered with the Folgers brand for a while now. Folgers has truly grown as a brand over the past few years and now with this product, they have show to be a true competitor in this market. My best memories of the Folgers brand was an old commercial where a college student comes home for Christmas and wakes up his family by making a pot of Folgers coffee. But I regress. I love these Folgers Flavors coffee enhancers. They come in 4 varieties, Vanilla, Mocha, Hazelnut, and Caramel. You can use as small an amount or as large an amount to bring the flavor out in your coffee to suit your needs. The aroma of a truly hot cuppa when adding these is reminiscent of a true coffeehouse brewing which can get pricey if done every day. Here is a less expensive alternative that allows you to get your much needed flavor rush while enjoying a casual java. At least that's my opinion. The Vanilla is my f...
