Keeping This New Year Resolution to Stay Smoke-Free

Keeping This New Year Resolution: a.k.a. Quit Season Time

Here we are again. I can’t believe how fast this year has flown by! Things are great. I am single again but happy! I am healthy; have a fantastic group of girlfriends (me? YES), the most amazing parents, and a celeb dog; I’m making changes in this world one day at a time; and I have a brand new home! It is almost the New Year and a time to continue to make good changes, reset my battery and shed unwanted people, things, and bad habits from my life. I try not to wait until the New Year to rid… Continue Reading

SELFtember™: Join Me Now For A Healthy Change

Happy September! Wow. I can’t believe how fast the year is flying by and summer is coming to an end. I can now play outside without melting! YAY. I am determined this year to get as healthy and fit as possible so that I can enjoy being a happy and healthy Melany. What does this mean? It means that I am dedicated to getting back into fighting shape, and this includes shedding one very yucky habit. One habit that I am proud to have shed is smoking. It’s a topic that no one likes to talk about. I hope that… Continue Reading

Win $4,145 Beachbody® On Demand For One Year And Fitness Package

Happy Day! Today is the day I get back to what I love doing and that is blogging and introducing people to amazing products. I have missed all of you while I have been moving for the past month! But, during this past month, I have learned a lot about myself, refocused my personal and professional goals plus found super cute clothes while on a shopping spree in my own closet from years past. But, I am getting older and it is continually proving harder to lose weight, get toned and STAY that way. Moving brings a lot of stress… Continue Reading

FORE: Gone Golfing

FORE: Gone Golfing

I did it. I finally got in touch with a golf pro and am now on the golf course taking lessons. It is super challenging and takes patience, which I don’t usually have but need if I am going to be good at this sport. Yes, this is a sport. I apologize to my friend in seventh grade when I said golf wasn’t a sport. Wow – was I wrong! In my defense, I was an avid softball player and couldn’t see anything else but a softball bat and a ball (and cute baseball players). So, I am finally taking… Continue Reading

Aura picture

I have been working on being on not being a workaholic. How am I doing, you ask? Well, I have been making time for myself! The first part of this process started by getting my ass back in the gym. I can’t tell you how good I feel now that I have been moving around and active for the past month. In all fairness to me, I placed myself in my own prison a.k.a. a walking boot from an injury sustained while playing kickball. Yes, kickball. I’m a total ringer too but one bad step while running through the bag,… Continue Reading

Grab Your (Love) Life by the Horns with Some Big Changes

Another great post from Laura with suggestions on what we all can do to make our love lives better. I was just talking about this with a friend. You must be happy with yourself before you can be happy in a relationship, right? Thanks Laura and happy weekend! How can you be successful in your love life if you don’t have the rest of your life together? Some women might feel like their romantic relationship is the only good thing they have. However, if you’re not having much luck with romance, it could be because you need to focus on… Continue Reading

Get On The Good Foot: Observations from a Rocker

Get on the Good Foot by James Brown is my jam

I learned a few things this weekend. 1. Melany is a very popular porn star name and I know this because when Google-ing my name (with the letter “Y” at the end) you will not find it on a Coke bottle, key chain but will find that it is a chosen name for a lot of porn stars. Just look at the images. Google it. See me in the midst of those women. Yeah. So, mom has looked into changing this melodic spelling for me legally. I will keep you updated. DISCLAIMER: I am not a porn star. Melanys is… Continue Reading
