That Lucky Girl!
I have always envied my cousin Michelle. She just gave birth five months ago, but she doesn’t look like she just did. How can some women be so darn lucky? She’s got the kind of body that looks like it takes a strict water and lettuce diet to maintain, but she actually has a big appetite. I would definitely need help from the best diet pills to achieve that kind of body! I’m always on the heavier side and no matter how little I eat, I still feel heavy. How I wish I am as lucky as her. 
Sister’s Week Tag
I had no idea it’s sister’s week until Race over at A Beautiful Life tagged me on this. Thanks for this tag sissy!
Be the kind of women that when your feet hit the floor each morning,
The devil says “Oh Crap, She’s Up.”
Sister, life is too short to wake up with regrets.
So love the people who treat you right.
Love the ones who don’t just because you can.
Believe in everything happens for a reason.
If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.
If it changes your life, let it.
Kiss slowly. Forgive quickly.
God never said life would be easy.
He just promise it would be worth it.
Today is sister’s day.
To the cool women that have touched my life.
this is for you…..LOVE U!!!
Rules:
Tag all your sisters, mothers, daughters, aunts, girlfriends.
If you get tag back seven times, you are loved.
Happy sister’s day! LOVE YA SISTA!!!
Girlfriend and sisters WEEK.

Just when you thought that the car industry is taking a hit, BMW and Jaguar are coming out with their 2010 models. Enthusiasts will surely be very eager to get their hands on some of the most handsome cars around. BMW will be unveiling their brand new series 5 and 6 while Jaguar will come out with their XF model.
The BMW 5 series will feature six variants, five sedans and a wagon. Click on bmw 5 series photos for reference. The base is the 528i which has a RWD and AWD variant. Boasting of a 3-liter, 6-cylinder engine. Both have 6-speed manual transmission. The 528i is a good mid-sized sedan which carries with it the reliability of BMW. With 230-horses pulling its legs, the 528i is no pushover when it comes to performance. Next is the 535i also comes in two variants. The 535i has the same engine as the 528i but comes with a turbo which churns out a massive 300 horses. The 535i also has a wagon variant. Last in the 5 series is the 550i which has a V8, 4.8 liter engine. This balanced beast has 360 torque and 360 horses.
The 6 series features the 650i. See attached bmw 6 series m6 photos. It comes as a coupe and a convertible. This is one toy the big boys will really love. Its power plant is a 4.8 liter V8 but this has the 6-speed sport automatic transmission. You don’t have you regular shifter but F1-like paddle shifters. With 360 horses, this sub-compact will surely leave anything in the dust.
Not to be outdone, Jaguar unveils its XF model. It has 5 variants that would surely meet your every requirement. The XF has everything, from elegant styling to a powerful engine. Starting at 300 horses for it basic 4.2 liter V8, the rest of its variants goes up to a monstrous 510 horses for its supercharged XFR. Of course it has jaguar’s 6-speed sequential shift. Yes, steering wheel mounted paddle shifters. Take a look at the jaguar xf photos and be amazed. This cat doesn’t purr, it growls.
Big boys have toys too!
That’s what I call service!
With the winter months approaching really fast, I’m sure many of you are already looking forward to the first snow, skiing and hitting the slopes during the holidays. But a skiing holiday can be stressful and expensive, unless you already have your own skiing gear and equipment. If you don’t, then get ready to spend big time on skiing paraphernalia. Buying your own gear and equipment is not a wise decision ever at this time, unless you’re into the sports. Why would you spend a fortune on things you will only be using once or twice during winter when you can rent your equipment?
Most ski resorts offer ski rental services that are affordable but the Beaver Creek Ski Rentals service is unmatched. Why? Because you don’t go to them, they come to you!
Simply book online to reserve the things you will be needing for your vacation and the equipment will be delivered in your hotel. Fitting is not a problem too, it can be done right in the comfort of your own room. And even if you are not sure about your boot size, there is no need to worry. The staff will bring all the sizes to ensure a good fit. Any queries you may have or any problems with your equipment, you can be sure that it will be addressed promptly. Just give them a ring and they’ll come to you right away. There’s no need to return the stuff you rented. They’ll pick it up from your place.
And as I have mentioned earlier, when it comes to prices, theirs are unbeatable. As soon as you have decided to hit the slopes, take the easy road and leave the worrying to someone else.
Stop Burglars From Scooting Around Your House
How secure is your home? Is it secure enough you can sleep soundly at night or leave on a two-week vacation without worrying about burglars penetrating your home? One should not be too complacent when it comes to Home Security System. These criminals are getting creative and are always updated when it comes to protecting our homes. An outdated Security System definitely won’t scare them off.
They are not even terrified of dogs and are not easily fooled by light timers. Not that dumb to know when the light goes on so when using light timers, it’s best to set them so they switch on and off on a staggered schedule when you are away.
Replace your outdated security system with a web-enabled home monitored alarm system like ADT. This will let you keep an eye of your home even when you are away. Burglars are heartless people who take advantage of other people’s hard earned possessions. Following these simple tips will give you that peace of mind and stop them from scooting around your house.

Face Painting Fun
Are your little ones bored when they can’t play outdoors on rainy afternoons? Here’s a way to keep them entertained for hours, custom face paint! To do: In a custard cup, mix 2 tablespoons of cornstartch with 1 tablespoon of vegetable shortening, then add 3 drops of food coloring. Repeat, using a different shade of food coloring in each cup. Apply with cotton swabs or old makeup brushes. The cornstarch gives shortening a thick consistency so your homemade paint won’t run. It’s also very easy to clean up. Simply wash away the makeup with a mild facial cleanser. 
The DIY face paint can also be used for your kids’ Halloween makeup!
