Awesome Yoga Mats

Do you Yoga?

It makes you feel so good, and stretched.

I LOVE YOGA.

Not having a good mat, makes Yoga not so fun.

There are many brands of mats out there.

One I have heard of recently is 

Manduka eKO Lite mat. 

It is made from Natural tree Rubber, and

 "the Sea Grass surface provide a naturally grippy and durable surface, the closed cell surface keeps perspiration from sticking to the mat, thereby avoiding bacteria breeding"

As a BzzAgent I have a possible opportunity to try this mat, and review it. 

I would Love this opportunity. 

Not only do I do Yoga weekly, but I Love my Wii Fit, which I need a great Mat for.

Please Allow me this opportunity.

Thank you 

Star Wars on Blue-ray

Star Wars is no longer a trilogy. But there are 6. 

(What ever that gets called) 

Even better news is that these 6 awesome movies are now on Blue-ray. 

As a kid I used to watch these movies on VHS and I thought they were pretty amazing. 

My family even had some children's books of Star Wars where you followed along with the cassette tape. Oh how I loved those books.

Then the movies came on to DVD. Oh My Goodness. I didn't think those movies could get any better. And they added some new scenes, and changed somethings

I know some fans were up in arms over the changes

(especially when Darth Vader's image changed at the end of Return of the Jedi)

but I thought they only improved what was already GREAT!!!

You might be wondering why I would dedicate a whole blog to Star wars. 

Not only is it coming to Blue Ray. But As a BZZAgent I may have the Awesome opportunity to do a review of these movies. 

I could totally do Some Jedi Mind Tricks... 

"You will let me review these Movies"

But I don't think I will.... 

I have heard mix reviews already... Many have said there are way to many changes.

I know those who do visit my Blog my want an Honest opinion from a 

REAL STAR WARS FAN.

I am not oppsesed with them, but I LOVE these movies so much, I can give a very open opinion of the movies with all the improvements/changes. 

SO here is to hoping I will be chosen to review and give my opinion of these movies.

 

Oh and do you know that Weird Al Song about YODA? 

It is awesome. But I usually listen to this song often. 

Look it up it will make you laugh.

LunchBots Duo

I am a bzzagent. I get the opportunity to receive products to review. 

I am interested in reviewing the product LunchBots Duo.

I am an outdoor educator, I try to teach students about being stewards for the environment.

I try to find ways to have less of an impact on the environment.

We live in a throw away society. And for this reason I try to show the kids, and parents that come with them ways to have less throw away, and less of a negative impact. 

One way is to not use so much plastic.

There are alot of great products out there that can be reuseable. But many of them are plastic. 

As we know plastic is made from fossil fuel. So it actually does have a negative impact. 

Also Plastic decompses as you wash/heat/ and use it.

I have always wished there were other options out there.
And there is:

But how wonderful do these LunchBots look. You can pack you snack/lunch for school/work. 

Follow this link to their website to look at all the varieties they have:

I would love to be able to review this product, and share it with others. 

I have been looking for something differnt to take food in. And this just might be what I was looking for.

BZZ agent The Help

 For people who may not know, I belong to a group of reviewers called BzzAgents. 

I am given the opportunity to sample products, share those products with others (from time to time) and submit a review. 

This time around I am submitting my desire to review a product in order to be a lucky few who review the product. 

This summer I anticipated a movie that looked amazing, The Help. I didn't realize it was a book, but I saw 2 of my FAV actresses and saw a behind the scenes, and I knew I needed to see it.
I defintly was not disappointed. I laughed, I cried, and I was left with some life questions. I thought "which Charcter would I be more like, if I lived at that time?"
"would I have to courage to stand up for what I knew was wrong?"
Among many others. I really love movies that make you think about life, while entertaining.

After seeing it I knew I needed to get my Hands on the book. I love reading books that make you think about your life and the choices you are making. I Know it wasn't meant to do this, but I figure if the movie was able to get me to think, the book must to this and more.
It is told from the perspective of three women dealing with life in a racially charged Mississippi during the 1960’s. 

My Favorite book of all time is "To Kill a Mockingbird." The movie reminded me greatly of "To Kill a Mockingbird". But in a differnt aspect of the civil rights movement.

I would love to find out for myself how much the movie differs from the book, and get to know more about the characters and become immersed into the 1960's in Mississippi.
I would so greatly love the opportunity to read this book, and let others know how great it is, As I am sure it is.

THANK YOU

ALASKA!!!!! (really Long Post)

I know, I know. It has been WAY to long since I have posted.... I lost Interest, Motivation. I was being lazy, unfocused and distracted.

I promised people especially when I came to Alaska I would make sure to Blog. Again the same reasons as before were still here, and have not gone. So I am sitting here at the library waiting to meet up with some friends. and I have had this post with Pictures waitin to tell about my Alaska adventures, and it has been waiting for like a month.

So I am finishing It up and I hope to make this a regular thing. I haven't gone "OUT" and expereinced much. This is mainly out on field trips with the kids. My co Pilot was taking the pictures, I weeded through and found the ones I liked and Thought I would show them to you... A lot of the scenery has changed since my first week here.

Flowers and trees have blossemed. the Sun is sunny, even through the clouds. It is turning out the be a awesome place for the summer.

So Here is my first shots of ALASKA,

I thought I was COOL!

I think I got 3 hrs of sleep the whole night... not cuz it was so sunny, I have gotten over the sun

No, I was COLD, and I Hate camping on the ground. I am a cot sleeper. So having not camped in years I did not enjoy this aspect of it. I was BEAT, literaly there was a root at my feet, one in my back, and I was on the slope. Oh and I didn't have a warm enough Bag. SO I was COLD!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

It has been WAY to LONG....

I know It has been way to long.... I lacked desire, motivation, Something.

Well I have lately felt the need to blog. It was more like I cleaned off my photo card, and knew I should blog some of my pictures, These were top of my list.

So I have to start by explaining. I Am very picky on friends that I consider close friends. Let me start again. I am finding I am a very likable person (I am not coincided) Its just it hit me one day at church/FHE I noticed how many people talked to me. Not me talking to them. And I was sort of in a I don't really want to talk to you mood. But it would stop. Why is it I am a approachable person. I Like it, but sometimes I don't want to mindlessly chat.

So I kinda have a lot of acquaintances. A bucket load of friends, or people I hangout with.

And then I have a handful of Close Pals. BFFs if you feel so inclined to call them that.

I do, and I never call them girl friends that is just weird.

But they are people who I trust with my secrets and They for sure know what makes tick, Well for the most part. I like to think I am a closed book. I like to keep to myself. SO these ladies have gotten past the locked doors to my life.

Anyways Some of my pals and I went to the mall.(not by my choosing, I hate shopping and I can't handle crowds. SO you can guess being in a mall would do to me.

Someone needed to get some Harry Potter stuff, and Then someone needed to hit up BnBW. SO I went. cause I love my Girls.

I also Love playing in the stores, You know like you did when you were a kid, Playing in the clothes racks. well maybe my sister and I did All time, making the clothes talk. or playing Hide and go Seek.

SO I got Tanya to play in a fireplace in BnBW. 

See doesn't she fit so well

 Now the crazy picture.

The workers were looking at us, and laughed

the next pics are from Hot Topics, were the angry teenagers shop at. and People work there that you can't help but stare at. Also I think Management encourages colorful hair, lots of tats, and piercings anywhere.

I totally found this hat/glove combo and it was crying to have me where it.

You know you want to pet me and take me home.

Yup I made her where these. Cute as a bunny

(I know it is button) (work with me)

Ok So I love Kate to death. She is trying to eat the earmuffs.

I told her they were fake, but she was just so hungry. 

Love me some KJ. and her scrunched up nose. Love Love her.

There you have it, I hope to be back tomorrow for another edition of what in the world has Stephanie Been Up To. See you then
