My Life as Mama Jodi

Its time for me to get back in the gym. I have slacked off long enough, and it is really showing. I am not liking the way I look right now. Its also time to start torturing one of the instructors there with requesting that one of the channels being switched over to Maury so we can hear the paternity testing at Paternity-Answers.com and his famous words “You are the father!” I won’t be able to use my iPhone to listen to my music until I find an arm band that is the correct size, and this is a must find item!

Want to play along, then visit Friday Fill In’s.

There are a lot of us who would agree that as Americans, we spend a lot of money on healthcare, and all of the things that go with it. Health is important, which is why we are willing to spend so much money on it. Most of the money that we spend on healthcare and health related items are those who are elderly, and those who may be disabled. For those of us with these kinds of problems, especially for those who live alone, the thought that something terrible can happen while you are alone can be a very scary thought. There are many patients who are elderly that have caregivers that come full time, or even part time, but they are usually very expensive, and some patients are just not able to afford it.

For those patients who are looking into some of the different options that may be available to them, there are a multitude of other choices out there. If you are deciding whether or not you want to invest your money into these kinds of devices either for you, or someone else you know, there are a few questions that you may want to ask yourself. One of the questions would be whether or not your lifestyle is conducive to the kind of product that you are going to be buying. It also helps to know, especially if you happen to be the caregiver, it helps to talk to the person who is going to be using the device so that you can be sure that when you give them the device, you are sure that they are going to be using it.

Something else that you can do, whether you are a patient, or a care giver is talk to your doctor next time you go to your appointment, and they should be able to give you some ideas as to what you should do if you or someone you know have the problem of being elderly or disabled and living on their own. There are many different options when it comes to choosing a medical alert system. When most of us think of a medical alert system we think of the plastic piece that the user wears around their neck. These have a button that the user can push in order to be directly connected to someone who is monitoring the device for the patient. This allows the response time that it takes for emergency workers to arrive on the scene to be cut drastically in half. Having these kinds of systems available in an emergency situation is something that is vital in situations like these.

If you are deciding to invest in a medical alert, it is important that you do all of the research that is necessary. This can keep you from having to go through the trial and error of trying out different methods. No matter which you choose, it is important to have some sort of system in place in case of a medical emergency.

I need a weekend away with my hubby. Now that Trent has his license, we don’t have to be around to pick him up from work. I want to go check out some antique shops, and do lots of browsing at things like rustic furniture, knick knacks, and jewelry. I am hoping to find some beads or even some rings that I can transform into prettier rings and sell them on my facebook craft page.

I have some things in mind that I want to find for part of my bathroom remodel and deck remodel as well. So a road trip it is! Now to find the right weekend and make it happen!

I haven’t been back to the gym in a really long time. I feel blah and gross. Now that some of my extra activities have slowed down, I may be getting my butt back in the gym. I know its going to kick my butt, but its something that I need. I have even resorted back to looking at all of those diet aids. Wondering, does hexaghen work?

I should start back on my Herbalife, and watch what I eat. It has worked in the past, so I just need to quit doubting it. Also need to stop drinking pop. This is such a damn addicting habit that I just wish would go away! Also my candy bar and donut binging needs to stop as well.

Monday starts a brand new week!
