Momspective Reviews Comfort Pocket Shorts

From the company:
We have created a comfortable alternative to the EA SPORTS Active™ Standard Leg Strap. The wonderful seamstress “YOUSEWGIRL” and I have added a durable stretchy pocket to a pair of spandex compression shorts. I have exercised with EA SPORTS Active™ in blissful comfort ever since. The stretchy pocket holds the nunchuck in the same position the standard leg strap would. You get to keep all the functionality of EA SPORTS Active™ and gain many times the comfort.

Cover Your Hair! REVIEW & INTERNATIONAL GIVEAWAY!

Okay, I’m not necessarily a hat person but I travel to Syracuse, NY ALL THE TIME.  If any of you are familiar with that city you know it’s pretty much the Arctic.  When I travel up there, I’m always just freezing my butt off and all that’s available for warmth and protection are those pull down regular old plain hats that somehow give your static when you take them off.

When I was asked to review an item from CoverYourHair.com, I couldn’t believe all of the options I had to choose from.  There’s no way I could list the inventory.  They have hats, belts, headbands…it just never ends!

I have pretty short hair and couldn’t figure out what I was looking for and then I realized with this operation I’m having, doing my hair is doubtful and at the end of April, I plan on returning to NY so my family can visit my kids.  I travel there every two months so they don’t miss out on the drastic changes at ages 5 & 2 and after August, my oldest will be in Kindergarten so those trips will be limited, and they’ll most likely occur when it’s cold, which is all the time.  (more…)

Waves Of Gratitude

I may be crude and occasionally offensive in my posts, but that’s to be funny and that’s who I am.  I find that I do things for people that I actually get made fun of.  Someone calls me in the middle of the night and needs me, I will be there.  If I have $10 to my name there’s  a good chance I’ll spend it on a friend.

Unfortunately, sometimes I don’t feel the gratitude from the work I put into people.  I don’t do these things for gratitude but a sincere “Thank you” or just some show of appreciation makes a difference to me.

Before this week, I had only felt pure gratitude two different times.  The first was when I was in high school.  As I have mentioned before, I’ve been a writer since the age of 14 and one day, I was at a boyfriends house and saw a mommy mouse had been killed by the dog but a newborn had survived.

I took this baby in and I fed it with an eye dropper, looked up how a mother would bathe and make it go potty and the proper temperature the mouse needed to survive.

I blame myself for what happened.  I accidentally grabbed the wrong formula and the mouse died.  I grieved for this mouse for months and actually still do years later.

Because of my writing, a reader who was a fan of mine saw the story and felt my pain.  He knew the high school I went to, since I’m not shy about anything and he found me one day with a gift.  The gift was a brown box that slid in to reveal a tiny gold mouse.  That box, with the mouse inside sits in my car to this day.

The second time I felt gratitude shown to me was when I was on a cruise and because I had a little too much fun, I went wandering around looking for something to help cure my aching head.

Seeing a man at an information booth, I rushed over and asked where I could get something to help me out. He pointed me in the direction of a Cold Stone Creamery, now famous nationwide, but unfamiliar to me back then. (more…)

Two Must Haves On Road Trips. Trust Me, I Know

Winsheild Wonder and Jupiter Jack

Before I start writing this review, I have to confess something most of you already know.  I am OBSESSED with infomercials.  Like in an unhealthy, twisted way.  It’s been a dream of mine to one day star in my own infomercial, and I even have the product I want to create and promote in mind, I just don’t have the time or or skill to do either.

That is not the reason I’m reviewing these two products.  I actually didn’t even realize these products had the awesome “As Seen On TV” label because I had my friend open the package for me (I’m not a good package opener, I’m the most uncoordinated person on earth and if I tried, destruction would ensue).

The reason I opted to try these products is because I travel A LOT.  Every few months, I’ll put my two kids in the car and drive 12 hours from SC to NY through the night.  My hope is that they’ll sleep but it doesn’t always happen.  If plane tickets are cheap enough, I go that route but flying with a toddler is a NIGHTMARE and at least he’s locked in place in my car.

While some of the states I drive through allow us to talk on our cell phones, it’s just not safe to do and I don’t feel comfortable doing it with kids in the car.   That’s why when I was offered the Jupiter Jack to review, I figured I’d give it a whirl. I Rock. Read On, My Friend. Read On.
