When we stopped at the gas station this afternoon, my friend went inside to pay and came out with two cold drinks. that was nice, as it has been incredibly hot around here and we need to keep drinking water and other beverages to stay hydrated. Well, the drink turned out to be green tea. I had never tried green tea before and I was happy to find that it is very tasty.

The issue of choosing the perfect website hosting company seems to always come up when talking with people who are spending a good amount of time online, such as myself. I’ve always heard that Go Daddy was the best way to go, so I was glad to see their name on the list of the top ten web hosting reviews and ratings found on Webhostinggeeks.com. They have Go Daddy listed as the largest web hosting, with Yahoo being the most reliable, which I find interesting. I’ve never had an issue so far with my choice (I am knocking on wood as I type this) but it is good to know that there are other choices out there in case I need to look around at some point in time.

It is important to do your research before making a decision on your web host, just like any thing else. Word of mouth is always a good way to find out, but going online is a great alternative and a tool that is easy and manageable enough with sites like Webhostinggeeks.com around to do the leg work for you. This site has many great articles, tips, ratings, reviews and links that are there for the taking, you gotta love that.

I’m sure everyone has heard about “The Biggest Loser” program on TV, hosted by Jillian Michaels. She’s like the no-nonsense fitness guru of the decade. Now she even has an online fitness program to help motivate people to reach their goals and her site also offers  Jillian Michaels Coupons which is always a plus when it comes to putting your money where your mouth is. I think I made a joke!

Anyway, hubby has been watching the show and now he wants to give the diet a try. I think that’s great he wants to lose weight, but the whole family doesn’t want to do the diet. So I guess that means I’ll be cooking more special meals to order instead of one big family style meal.

I’ve never been much of an Oprah fan, I mean she has and does great things and in my opinion, she is a wonderful woman – I just never got into watching her talk show. I know that she is responsible for Dr. Phil’s successful T.V. talk show, which I usually enjoy watching, if I am at home to watch it.

For a while there, he was boring me with what seemed to be nothing but unhappily married couples day after day, which I tired of quickly, and I know that at times he can appear very full of himself, but for the most part his show can, and does, stimulate my mind while being entertained, to boot!

I do notice that a good majority of men bash Dr. Phil and it really puzzles me. Hubby even dislikes watching the show and carries on about how Dr. Phil isn’t really a shrink and isn’t licensed, and then he spouts off something about how he is really just a botanist, I’m not sure where he came up with that info, and I’ve given up on trying to figure that one out.

So when it comes to watching a talk show that Hubby and I both enjoy, I must admit that the winner is ELLEN, hands down.  (It just so happens we share the same name, too bad we don’t share bank books)

Friday nights are my night off because Hubby and our youngest are normally glued to the television watching their favorite wrestlers beat on each other. I’m glad our daughter watches it with Hubby because if he didn’t that would mean that I would have to sit and try and watch it. I’d rather be doing something else, thank you.

I am still trying to get in as much reading as I can, taking a nice hot buble bath late in the evening with a good book I have found, is a nice way to end the day, plus it makes it easier for me to ease off to sleep. So on Friday evenings I can count on being able to do just that while the guys, in the living room keep up with all the drama going on with America’s newest wrestling pro’s.
