Tips for Packing a Suitcase
December 1st, 2009 · 1 Comment · Bonnie's Posts, Tips
By the time you read this I will already have left for my trip. I’m off to New York and then Tampa and I’ll be away for ten days. Unless you are planning on coming to rob my house, then I’m not really away at all. You should also know I have a big mean [...]

To my neighbours, I love you and think you’re all incredibly wonderful people with very big hearts and caring souls. With that said, please don’t be mad at me when I call you out for leaving your sprinkler system on during that rainy spell we had last week. You remember, that crazy downpour that lasted [...]

Rambling on about Acai, Aging & Spam
September 10th, 2009 · 2 Comments · Jacquie's Posts, Tips
This week has been about the joys and excitement of our wonderful little offspring heading back to the hallowed halls of book learnin’ ‘n other stuff. With my last babe entering her high school graduation year, it’s also been a time of reflection for me. No, literally. Reflection. Checking out the mirror and looking for [...]

It’s a Matter of Perspective
August 25th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Bonnie's Posts, Tips
I find it interesting that we tend to see ourselves so differently than others see us. What is that all about? Why is it that when we check ourselves out in a mirror we see a multitude of flaws? And that is just how we see ourselves from the outside.
Have you ever asked someone else [...]

Dating Etiquette
August 12th, 2009 · 5 Comments · Humour, Tips, Tracy's Posts
I’ve been thinking of dating and came across some tips online for those of us who have been out of it for awhile. Scott and I have been giving each other pointers on what is acceptable and what might not be when you start to date someone ‘new’. I use the term ‘new’ loosely because [...]

The Monashee Mountains boasts some of the most spectacular hiking areas in all of British Columbia. Walk through the Interior Rain Forests where the Cedar trees have stood for hundreds of years and the moss covers the forest floor.

Make Over Fun!
July 4th, 2009 · 6 Comments · Bonnie's Posts, Tips
Sorry boys. This post is kind of directed more towards the girls, but really anyone could have fun with it too.
Have you ever wondered what you would look like with short red, long black or wavy blonde hair? If you were to take the plunge for a radically different hair style and then just hated [...]

Talking to the kids about sex…
June 8th, 2009 · 6 Comments · Jacquie's Posts, Taboo, Tips
Happy Monday morning, you weekend warriors, you. I trust everyone got lots of rest and maybe a few ‘must do’ kind of things checked off their lists. I know I did and it feels soooo good. (Once we got the errands and housework done) Gavin and I went out to White Rock beach and did [...]
Finally Lost My Mammogram Virginity
June 1st, 2009 · 8 Comments · Health and fitness, Jacquie's Posts, Tips
There are three main reasons why I’m doing this post today. The first is that it finally gives me the opportunity to stick in high traffic keywords like virginity and breasts that make our statistics fly off the charts. For this to really work I’ll have to repeat the words virginity and breasts several times [...]

The Truth About Your Age
May 23rd, 2009 · 4 Comments · Bonnie's Posts, Tips
This post is really a follow up to a team post we did a couple of weeks ago called “Do you ever lie about your age?”. In this post we all seemed to agree that lying about your age was not necessary.
While surfing the net I found the following interview. I decided to share [...]

Wouldn’t It Be Nice
May 5th, 2009 · 5 Comments · Bonnie's Posts, Inspiring, Tips
I’ve been trying to use a process called “Wouldn’t it be nice if…” to help keep me positive when things don’t go like I want them to. It works like this. Imagine you are on your way to work in the morning; you might say to your self “Wouldn’t it be nice if the traffic [...]

Obligations and Expectations.
April 29th, 2009 · 5 Comments · Tips, Tracy's Posts
Obligations and expectations are something everyone accumulates over time. They can sneak up on you if you’re not careful. They start to layer themselves on us until we start to feel like our lives are being directed by everyone but us. Family obligations are one thing, such as celebrations and doing things for other family [...]

Tracy’s take~
As I age it gets harder and harder to look young and fresh. Some days it’s hard to look in the 10X mirror, but I wouldn’t live without it or all hell would break loose! I want to age gracefully! I have been told my entire life I have never looked my age (or [...]

Bejewelled Brazilians!
April 17th, 2009 · 15 Comments · Taboo, Tips, Tracy's Posts
I was chatting with some girlfriends waiting for kids to come out of school and the topic found it’s way to one Mom who just had a Brazilian wax. If this is too much information for you or you find this offensive I suggest you “Blog-off.” lol (as Bonnie would say) Not everyone can easily [...]
