stop swine flu tips!!!

OK this is going around and we just have to be careful and prepared. So far so good no one I know has had it but it is just a matter of time, or is it?

My husband is having back surgery on October 16th and he had his pre-op appointment. He brought home a piece of paper that he thought I would be interested in. This piece of paper came from ST. Francis Hospital in Tulsa , OK so this info is real and legit!

Here are two easy things you can do to prevent the flu from attacking your family. Now this does not replace the flu shot it just helps.

1.) If your throat starts hurting gargle salt water. The salt water kills the flu virus germs and prevents them from going any further. Gargle everyday if you want, this is such an easy and simple preventative action.

2.) You can also drink a hot beverage, this pushes the germs into your stomach. The flu germs cannot survive in your stomach.

How amazing are these steps? And from a Hospital no less. So the big questions is, why has the news not given this info? I mean how many people could this help? So I am blogging this for you and hoping it gets passed along. Spread it like wild fire. I know us women can do this, I believe in you. Good luck and stay healthy.
God Bless,
Heather

marriage and communication, getting your relationship back

Today I was running errands while my husband of 10 yrs was at home with our kids and I started to think about how we wound up where we are right now. Trying to remember the 1st week of our relationship was very hard, not to mention the feelings that came with it. Now all we do is go to work, run the house and take care of our kids. Some where in the middle of that we lost our connection and became room mates. So how do you get back the relationship that started the whole thing? That is a big question. I have gone online, read and even asked other people their advice and it comes to this.

Communication is the number one thing you must have to get back to each other. This right here may take some time. Not only have you been married for a number of years, you have also grown apart. Some how you need to get back on the same road and the best way to do that is to communicate.

The next step is to take some time for the both of you. Do somethings together that you enjoy. Most likely your hobbies will have changed so this can be a new experience for the both of you. What do you do if you both like different things?
Take turns on your time together. Even if you really don't want to do it you need to try and at least give your partner the respect and understanding of learning or sharing their interests.

Don't dwell on the past.
I know that when things got started it was wonderful and exciting, but some how that went away. The reason for this is you have grown up and matured so the things that started it won't give you the same affect today as it did yesterday.

Start a new routine.
Share the responsibilities if possible. Nothing is more frustrating than working all day then coming home and you have more work in front of you. Give yourself some decompression time after work then start your time together. It doesn't have to be going out. Life does not allow us for fun all the time. My suggestion is do the responsibilities together, get it done faster so the two of you have more time for luxury tasks.

If you have a million things on your plate then stop for 1 minute and notice your partner. Give them a hug or kiss and ask how there day was. Tell them about yours. This way your communicating and still paying attention to their needs along with yours. This can be hard to do, I struggle with this one. It is so easy to just forget and keep going. Try your best to make it a habit, write it down until you have a routine with it.

Involve the kids.
Pick one day out of the week for a family night. Your choice on activities or you can alternate each week. Talk to your kids about how you met, the wedding or how you lived before they were born. The kids will love this and you will get to remember your special memories. Also if the kids are old enough inform them that you two will be taking 30 Min's each day to talk without interruptions from the kids. They need to learn along with the two of you that taking this time is very healthy for your relationship since it encourages communication.

The main thing to remember is you two have become distant so unless you want to stay that way you need to make time for each other. It is important to grow and better to grow together. It's never too late to start over no matter how long you have been married and running your own lives... If you still love each other and want to be happier then take the time to make it happen. I hope this has helped you. I plan on following my own advice and see what we can accomplish together.

There is no time frame for this only time spent together.

School is ready, are you?

Today I went to my girls school for meet the teacher night and it was a wonderful feeling. Both of my girls will be in school and I will actually have freedom to work, go to school or even sleep if I want. What a wonderful milestone in a kids and parents life when all kids in the house attend school. I have been back and forth on how I feel about the whole thing. My baby is growing up so fast, I get to be a woman for a small time rather than mom, I'll miss them and the biggest one is how much I am going to worry about them. How well they adjust, get along with the teacher and kids. Will they listen to the teacher and mind her? Will my little one handle the all day schedule including the structure of lunch time? These are just a few things running thru my mind these last couple of weeks. What are some of yours? I am sure there a millions of moms and dads that feel the same maybe more. Seems like we should have some kind of support group for parents to help deal with the stress and anxieties. What is your opinion? Feel free to comment or add your own advice or personal experiences. This is just an attempt to help clear my mind in order to sleep tonight so if you share some of the same feelings please feel free to leave a comment. I can't wait to hear from you. To all the parents out there about to go on the school journey, Good Luck!

10 surprising reasons your stressed

I always find the best stories and ideas from Woman's Magazine and therefore want to share with you. Being a stay-at-home mom, maid, cleaner's, hair dresser, massage therapist, Avon rep, taxi and so on I can relate to stress and I know you can too. So take a deep breath.... and read.



Which do you think is the most damaging to your health?

A. Lose a Job

B. messy house

C. a major blow out with your friends



If you picked both B and C then your right.



1. People who say yes when they mean no.

You have friends that make plans with you then show up late or cancel at the last minute. SO guess what goes up? Your stress." Research shows that ambiguous relationships where you can't predict whether an encounter will be positive or negative from one day to the next can take a greater toll on you than a relationship with someone you consciously dislike" says Elizabeth Scott, stress management guide for about.com



2. Rude encounters from sales people

you go to check out and the sales person ignores you and does not even do what you request, like double bagging, changes your attitude goes from bad to worse in 2.5 seconds. Elizabeth Lombardo, PhD, a clinical psychologist and author of the upcoming book A Happy you:Your Ultimate Prescription for Happiness. This sends us into fight or slight mode, we either want to be rude right back, or we walk away feeling bad about ourselves."



3. does anyone else see the mess?

This is a common question in my house, and I wish they would listen when they hear it. Now this is good so if you want proof to show your husband get the September issue of Woman's Day.

"Research on men's brains shows that they take in fewer sensory details than women and don't see or feel mess in the same way we do." says Alice Domar, PhD, executive director of the Domar Center for Mind,Body health in Waltham, Massachusetts. And of course kids generally don't care, so in other words your desire for clean is not a high priority for others.



4.If you need help please press 1

Automated customer Service. Need I say more. I know for me just to get to the right number to push to get a real person takes about 10-15 minutes, or if the automative choices are voice sensitive and you have little ones running around asking you 20 questions just cause you got on the phone to begin with, ends up taking 2 or 4 calls altogether just to get through. Enough already. "These systems were designed to save companies money," says Walt Tetschner, Get2Human.com consumer advocate, "but they often take too long to get to a person, are illogically designed and end u losing customers who get angry and impatient."



5.Can I get a little quiet?

No wonder we can't distress-right now as I write this my 7 yr old has to ask me question after question and I am having a difficult time concentrating on writing. It is just about impossible to find some quiet time alone. "Everyone needs some time without noise and demands, to recharge her batteries," says Meghan McDonough, author of the upcoming book A Minute for Me. "Wherever your attention is focused is where all your energy will flow. A little solution can redirect it back to you."



6. my husband drives me crazy!

OK this happens all the time, It's just part of being married, or is it?

They say opposites attract, and it's true that many of us look for someone who has qualities we lack. However, the key to a successful relationship is not having the same personality traits, but having similar attitudes about major issues. "After a few years, we tend to look past our commonalities and focus on personality issues, which become one of the most common areas of marital stress," says Dr. Lombardo "what once attracted you his generosity, his sense of humor is now a major irritant."

6. packing in too many to do's

I don't know about you but for me they come in waves. Some days I have nothing then bam, I will have about 2 or 3 things to do and my list will grow and my day is gone.

Even if you don't mind your daily errands and you have the energy for it; the question is, are your days so packed that one small hiccup throws you onto a tizzy?
Everyone needs breathing space so small things don't seem huge ordeals. Start your day rushing and you trigger the stress response that will last all day.

8. Who is that in the mirror?

Do you look in the mirror and see the mom look? hair pulled back for comfort, no make-up and clothes that are comfy and not flattering, meanwhile your kids have the latest clothes, and you run yourself ragged to get home and make dinner so your husband can go to the gym after work. "The mirror is a subtle reminder that, while you take care of everyone else, you aren't taking care of your self," There's also a strong correlation between how you present yourself to the world reacts to you. When you project project a positive aura, people respond positively. It's hard to feel bad when your getting good feedback.

9. is anyone listening?

This has to be my biggest pet peeves. I feel very strong about this one and that no one in my family listens to a thing I say, then when something happens I get blamed because they say I never told them, when in fact I did. Need I say more?Your kids can talk about everything going on in today's world but can't remember what you say, your hubby goes to the store for milk and comes home with ice cream and cookies. You think is anyone listening to what I say? "Not feeling connected to your loved ones is a major source of stress," says Scott, " but we've accepted lives that preclude the art of talking and listening to each other and mastered instead the art of tuning out.

10. eating too few calories.

Anyone guilty of this? I am in the summer, I have to remind myself to eat before I pass out.

You are either too busy or you want to cut calories to lose weight. Naturally, your body goes into craving mode and you find yourself irritable, head achy and tired. You can either stay irritable, or eat and then blast yourself for breaking your diet. Forget counting calories and choose healthy snacks and small meals to keep up your energy and positive attitude for the day.

Most of my writing comes directly out of Woman's magazine. After reading this I just had to share with you. I know it makes me feel better that I am not going crazy and my feelings are validated by professionals who actually know what they are talking about. I would love to hear other's opinions on this. Why don't we turn this into the venting post that way everyone who needs to vent about whatever is bugging them can, then feel better after getting it off our chests. Plus it is always nice to share and have someone who agrees or understands. So I can't wait to share with you and vice verse. God Bless,

Rose
