Way back in the April 01 issue of the newsletter I ran a link for a free sample of Gillette Face and Body Wash for Men… I’d also ordered it for my better half, since he complains that I’m always ordering stuff but never anything for him, so I thought it might shut him up for awhile.

Silly me - unlike most of those WalMart sample offers (which usually arrive within a few weeks) this one took over three months and I’d given up. Figured that they’s run out or something.

Oh, well, it got here today and there should be enough for three or four showers…

A while ago I ordered a Free Cookbook called “Light & Easy Recipes” from Merck and the American Heart Association… you had to take a quiz to get the free book, but as I remember it was pretty easy and only took a few minutes.

Anyway, that was in the newsletter last month, and it arrived today. I just checked and the link is still good - just take the ‘Heart Smarts Challenge’ if you want to get a copy for yourself.

About the book; it’s about 90 pages of healthy recipes covering everything from appetizers to desserts… and some healthy info from the American Heart Association spread throughout. All in all, well worth the few minutes it took to get it.

A couple weeks ago I ran a freebie offer in the newsletter for a Free Anti-Smoking Bumper Sticker and/or Poster … today the poster I ordered arrived. It’s a little smaller than I expected, but you certainly can’t fault their speed in sending it.

There were about a half-dozen posters to pick from, I chose this one to put in the kids bathroom because my youngest is really vain - even for a teenage girl - and I hope it will make her think twice before she lets the tobacco company advertising convince her that smoking is cool.

Limit Your Kid’s Online Time with ComputerTime (Free Trial Download)

Why I Like This Software:
ComputerTime lets me set how much time in a day, and when during the day, my kids can use the computer.
With our kids addicted to instant messaging, and all the dangers of the Internet, we needed to find a solution that sets time limits on the computer. ComputerTime does just that!

We can set flexible limits for when, and how long, our children can use the computer. Different limits can easily be set for each day of the week. ComputerTime also has a popular feature called “Time Tokens” which gives you the ability to hand out extra computer time to do homework or as a reward for good behavior.

Here’s a user review from PCMag.com - funny thing is that I could have written this myself: Except for the time span (I’ve only had it about three months) it’s exactly how I feel about this software!
“I’ve been using ComputerTime for over a year now and it is AWESOME! Before installing ComputerTime, my kids were on the computer way more than I liked. And when I asked them to take a break for 20 minutes, they would complain and get upset with me. ComputerTime let me set the times during which they can use the computer as well as how long they can use the computer in one sitting. The best part of all is that there is no more complaining and arguing about using the computer! My kids know, up front, how much time they can spend on the computer before it logs them out so they can manage their own use of that time by using it all at once, or saving time for later…talk about learning time management at an early age - bonus! I love it and would highly recommend this software. The installation and setup was the easiest I have seen anywhere!”

With the dangers of unsupervised Internet surfing, instant messaging, and game playing; every parent in the world needs a way to limit their kids computer use… There is a free trial download ~ get it and give it a try. If you love it as much as I think you will, it can be easily purchased right from the trial copy user interface.

I just saw a fantastic video that I want to share with everyone…

Summer time is coming ~ and if you are like me then getting rid of a few of those extra inches around the waist is on your mind…

My friend Andrea just created a video and a free report of the “best of the best” weight
loss tips that you’ll ever see.

Watch the video

When I finished watching this video I just thought to myself: “Finally! Somebody who really ‘gets it’!”

This is straight talk, no nonsense stuff, but with a fun and heart-centered approach that I think the whole world has just been waiting for.

This girl is going to be changing lives.

Check it out now by going Here.

You’re welcome!
