One Lazy lick after another

School is back in session! The lazy days of summer are over for my kids, but just beginning for me. Now that they’re back in school I can take a load off and enjoy leisurely dips in the water, lounging in hammocks and catch up on my summer reading. I don’t want to have to lift a finger, or turn a cone for that matter. I’m taking laziness to a new level with this Motorized Ice Cream Cone from Miles Kimball.com.

These booze themed Plush Dog Toys from In the Company of Dogs are perfect to crack open on New Year’s Eve, for a special Anniversary, or when Sparky finally catches that tail he’s been chasing for years.

Run don’t walk to get this Personal Trainer

I thought I’d take up running this summer. What felt like an Olympic mile run was actually more like a 50 yard dash. Not only can I keep accurate measures of my distance with his Garmin Forerunner Personal Trainer from Brigade QM, but I can feel like I have my own personal Drill Sargeant, pushing me to the next level…without all that boot camp abuse.

Worth it’s Weight in Gold

My husband says I’m worth a million bucks. I say I’m worth this 10 oz Gold Bar from Eagle National Mint. This hunk of hunk of burning gold is so dazzling, it makes me feel like I’m the richest woman in the universe just thinking about it.

Watch me Sleep

sleeptracker watch

I’m a bad sleeper. I toss and turn and kick around like I’m kung fu fighting that crazy panda character, plus I hate waking up right in the middle of a perfect dream. This Sleeptracker Watch from Brookstone makes sure I get my beauty sleep every night of the week. It monitors my body and helps me wake up more refreshed than Rip Van Winkle.
