sleep aid
just sharing a link that is a new product helpful for sleep. It was recommended by a very well know integrative doctor in California. I am not recommending it for restless legs, but my sister and her husband say it helps with sleep. https://lifewave.com

What ever happened?
Why can't I get my fat arse out of my room and bed? I wrote some lists out for what we need to do around the house and remind us what to do on a daily and weekly basis once the deep clean is done, Every time I plan anything I just get waylaid and all that gets done is, tv oh yeah and crap snacking!
