Feels Great to Donate... www.donorschoose.org

I just stumbled upon an AMAZING donation website... www.donorschoose.org.    Holy cow! This site is totally amazing and makes me feel so full of gratitude and hope when I see that people have created something like this.

I strongly urge you to check it out... Teachers all over the US post projects that they're working on with their students, request donations and itemize out the project, benefits and their needs.  I just made a small donation for iPods and Nanos (being that i'm a MAJOR Apple fan.)  Apparently the class even sends hand written thank you notes! Feels great to donate.

Jackie Warner & I Gotta Feeling

thanks to Jackie Warner's new book This is Why You're Fat, I have worked out on the treadmill the last 2 days in a row. That's more than I've worked out in the last 12 months... and I feel pretty good.  Reason for this post though is because the Black Eyed Peas song called I Gotta Feeling.... i kicked ASS in my workout.

So - note to ALL Mothers out there... if you're feeling kinda frumpy, a little unmotivated, exhausted, depleted, fat, worn out, lonely - all of it... let yourself listen to this song. It's bound to lift your spirits even if just a little bit.  A gift you deserve.

Happy Mother's Day!
