Just A Note: I had to cancel my BIRTHDAY TRIP because of various issues this year. I was VERY disappointed because it’s the ONE THING I look forward to all year long. I was able to scrape some money together and make it out to Joshua Tree just so I could grab some ME time. [...]

Just a note for my long time readers: Ms. Fat Adventures has had a rough time with depression and with that came some weigh gain and a stress fracture in her foot.

Did you know that walking in the sand can burn up 300 to 800 calories an hour? How cool is that?! In the wee hours, I decided that just a normal walk wouldn’t do.

Mr. Caiden is not allowed to have large amounts of sugar (just like Grandma). Anyone who GIVES Mr. Caiden sugar is in charge of removing him from the ceiling (again- just like Grandma).
