As time goes by, the amount of work people need to get done each day seem to be piling up more and more. There are numerous errands to run, deadlines to meet, appointments to go to and schedules to keep. It is no wonder that the number of hours seem to be not enough to finish everything. Even when technology is constantly coming up with inventions, processes and gadgets to make things easier and faster, still time seems to be too short.

I am running a half marathon in May. I head out the door for my runs early in the morning before my family wakes up and I'm starving when I get back to the house.

Slow Cooker Potato and Ham Soup Recipe. This is one of my favorite soups – probably because it is just so simple, but everyone loves it and it is a perfect “fix it and forget it” recipe. I’ve been making it for years and it is a great meal, even in the summer, because you use the slow cooker, so it doesn’t heat up your kitchen. I usually make this with bacon, but after all the leftover ham from Easter , I wanted to try it with ham, and you know what?

Lack of sleep can have far-reaching health implications as well as being annoying and leaving you tired for the next day. For years, I had issues sleeping. If I got more than 4 hours a night I was doing good. Something had to be done. I did some research as to some possible things I could try to improve the situation. I figured I had nothing to lose, so I tried any suggestion I came across.

Nicole, a Simply CVS reader, emailed the following information and photo to me today to share with you all: "I stopped at a Cvs near work downtown Chicago. They had the Cottonelle backup holders for 1.99 and get back 1.99 in ECB. However the item was not recognized by the register so they had to Manually print the ECB for me." Hopefully some of you can find these, too.

Conrad Richter , in the book, The Trees, describes the burial of Sayward’s pioneer mother. Sayward was just a teen, but she took charge of preparing her mother’s body for burial – instructing her sisters to help her wash her mom’s body, clean the clothing to bury her in and sew a pillow to put under her head. All the while the two smallest siblings were watching their father make a wood casket and dig the burial hole.

Most of us eat too much salt, which can increase your blood pressure and put you at greater risk of developing heart disease or having a stroke. Even if you don’t consciously add salt to your food, you’re not necessarily in the clear as many foods contain added salt and you may well be consuming a lot more salt than you realize. This is a worrying thought but you can easily cut down on your salt intake by following these hints.

With rising gas prices at the pump, it can be down right painful to fill up at the gas station. And with the American Automobile Association (AAA) reported this week that the national average is $3.93 for a gallon of gas, we know that it will probably only get worse as the summer rolls on. Of course, driving less can help reduce the amount of gas you use, and therefore need to buy, but when carpooling, riding your bike, or using alternative transportation just isn’t feasible, then you can still
