A Product Service Review: Fabletics
This review contains only my own opinions. I am an affiliate so I may receive compensation if you purchase products through the link at no additional cost to you. I was not compensated for this post. As a regular walker and occasional yogi, I wear a lot of leggings! Lots of leggings! My son says I don’t exercise enough for these outfits! 😊 I started wearing them almost exclusively when my kidney started failing sometime in 2014. I didn’t have a lot of energy, so leggings were easy to wear. When I had the dialysis catheter implanted into my abdomen in September 2015, the leggings were a blessing! Even now,…

My Favorite Horror (Scary) Movies
During Blogtober, I have seen several posts other bloggers have written about their favorite Halloween movies.

I wasn’t always very diligent about warming up and caring for my body before and after a workout. I know much more now. The following…

My Favorite Fall Television Shows
I’m an odd television watcher. I have the television on all day because I hate silence while I’m working. Which means I can see a TV program without “seeing” it. I can keep it moving with the TV on in the background. Due to that, I do like going back and watching a series all the way through. I can miss parts of the show while I’m on my computer! And with streaming, I have become a fan of show binging. I adapt to the times! I do have some current shows that I enjoy watching (not always live – Hulu is a great aid in this!). I love waiting…
