Healthy Back-to-School & Work

Smiley
Yep, it's Monday and hope everybody had a nice weekend. This may have been back-to-school time for some like here in Georgia. I'm sure the morning was quite different especially getting the kids up out of bed. They will adjust and probably could not wait to see their friends and meet new ones. The Atlanta Journal Constitution newspaper has plenty of coverage as metro students returned to school.

The school lunches are on a quest to be healthier which is one good thing for the returning students. Make sure to include a piece of fruit in their backpack that is easy to eat like a small banana or box of raisins. The temperatures are still warm during the day so drinking water is important. I hope school's are allowing some recess time outdoors for kids to stretch, walk around and socialize.

Just like the kids, pack yourself a healthy lunch and toss fruit into the bag. Make your own trail mix and place in a zip lock baggie that includes raisins, nuts, pretzel twists, and dried cereal. It's the great go-to snack that will give you a healthy jolt of energy.

Back to Work Tip of the Day

Hot Coffee
Good Monday morning everybody. Yep, it's back to work and a new week of projects and assignments. Let's be honest, sometimes it takes awhile to get going on Mondays and for coffee lovers, a cup or two sure helps to give our bodies a burst of energy from the caffeine.

Just remember to refresh your body with plenty of water while drinking coffee to stay hydrated. You will get that same burst of energy from cool cups of water. If you can, start on a few smaller projects that won't take long to finish and work your way up to the more time-consuming ones. Stay focused!

It's National Donut Day

Good evening, I just could not miss posting this sweetie. I hope some of you had a delicious donut in its honor. Did any of your co-workers bring in a dozen this morning for the office to enjoy with coffee? According to the story on CNN, the day was started by the Salvation Army in Chicago in 1938 to honor 'Donut Lassies' who served treats and provided assistance to soldiers on the front lines during World War 1.

The Versatile Blogger Award

This week I received The Versatile Blogger award from a new follower of my blog. I was really surprised and appreciative of the recognition. The blogger, Carmen Esposito received the award for her own blog In Pursuit of Writing that chronicles her journey to become a writer. Way to go!

I know we all visit and follow lots of blogs and are very supportive. It takes a lot of time to keep up your blog on a daily basis or every few days with interesting posts for the readers. To be able to balance work, family & any other commitments makes a day in the life of a blogger pretty fantastic.

Thanks Carmen for this award!
