Happy Cinco de Mayo

It's a festive day as the world celebrates Cinco de Mayo which is Spanish for "fifth of May" and a celebration of  Mexican heritage and pride. Anyone have special plans for the day? It's a sunny Saturday in my town and I can't wait get out and soak up bits of sunshine. Enjoy the weekend and all the festive fun on Cinco de Mayo!

5 Excuses for Buying a Convertible

ALL GOOD :-) ->5 Excuses for Buying a Convertible - MSN Autos

Hello to my great readers. I'm looking forward to a good week ahead and know you are too. I feel giddy once again after getting so much done earlier in the day. This is a fun read and I like the excuse on getting Vitamin D from the sun in a Convertible. Drop the top!

Healthy Tidbit ->Step Out for Sun

If you're planning to spend the day inside the house working on various things, take a few minutes to step outside on the porch or deck and sit a few minutes in the sun. It's a good way to get a dose of vitamin D which our bodies need. I'm not advocating staying out in the sun for a long period of time given the skin cancer risks and let's not forget the hot temps, but just long enough to soak up bits of sunshine. Drink a cool glass of ice water while you're out there and then head back inside. The fresh air will do you good and you just might see one of these beautiful butterflies on the flowers. Now that would be delightful!

Exercise & Vitamin D

I am always looking for ways to sneak in exercise throughout the day. While out running errands today, I parked my car a distance away from the store for extra walking. I also got a good dose of Vitamin D from the sun. The health experts report that the sun is a good way to get it.

So, park your car a safe distance from your shopping or business appointments to get a good dose of exercise and Vitamin D.
