Amazon:
Do you wish you had slim, toned arms that looked great in any sleeveless attire? If you said yes, then you need Rachel Howe's arm toning book. She has put together 15 exercises designed to target the muscles located in your arms. This means when you implement her workout into your exercise routine you will think you went back in time.

No more sloping shoulders. No more bird arms. Be prepared for younger looking arms that are prepared for any outfit. Get the arm definition you have always dreamed about. You will be finding excuses just to show off your new found arms.

Mine: Now is the time to get this started (actually a couple months ago would have been better), since it’s short sleeve time of year.

Most are done with weights, but if they help – great. Most of these look easy, some could even be done while watching tv or if you are really good you could do while walking, I’ve been trying to do them while doing my walk (having been to the Dr and told lose weight!). Figure walking is the way to start.

Book Review: Freedom From Eczema…..by Dr. Robert B. Campbell (ebook)






Title: Freedom From Eczema…..by Dr. Robert B. Campbell (ebook)

From the Author
This book is dedicated to all those who have been afflicted with Eczema. May you find freedom as you read about the process that has brought others their freedom.

From the Inside Flap
I want to share with you what I would say to you if I were speaking to you face to face about eczema. These insights and principles have helped bring healing to many people over the years through one on one ministry or in our healing schools. I pray these insights will bring healing and release from Eczema. These principles are not intended to be head knowledge applied only once, but to be revelation, walked out all through life. If you just try this, it will have limited impact, but if you get the full revelation, you will walk in a changed mindset until you see the full manifestation of your healing!


Mine: Well I was hoping that this was going to give me some clues about Eczema, since I just finished going to the Dermotologist and was told the dry skin on my hands was eczema.

I wasn’t expecting bible verses and scripture. How it relates is beyond me. I’m all for affirmations and things, but I don’t think they help in getting rid of eczema. What a huge let down, besides no where in the description does it talk about the scripture verses.

Library Read-A-Thon - June 9th - 16th

Rachael @ Rachael Turns Pages is sponsoring the Library Books Readathon - checked it out.


Happy National Library Week!

After all the fun I have had celebrating Nation Library week at my local library I thought it would be the perfect time to announce The 2nd Annual Library Books Readathon. After the great turn out of last year's readathon I couldn't wait to host it again. I changed it to be the beginning of the month since there is another Library readathon at the end of June.

The goal of this read-a-thon is to read as many library books as possible. If you are like me you always have books that are close to due that need to be done and fast so this read-a-thon is a great time to get those books done and get them back to the library.

I'm not going to be picky. If you want to read your own books go ahead. I just love read-a-thons so I would love anybody who could join.

This Read-A-Thon will start at midnight on June 9th and will go until midnight of the 16th. I will have daily posts about services my library offers that maybe your library offers too. If you are interested in guest posting during the readathon about your library email me at rachaelc1020 at gmail.com.

My Goals

This time around I thought I would clear the iPad (ebooks) that fall under non-fiction. Hope to find some helpful hints in some of them. I have a few more, but thought I would start with these - can you see a theme - time & clean up.
