The Home Safety Council sponsors the Home Safety Awareness Month every June, and honestly, this was the first time it "caught my eye" because I never gave much thought about "home safety" until having a baby. Now, it's all I think about!

There is a great Safety Guide and Checklist for every-possible safety measure you can think of: http://www.homesafetycouncil.org/safety_...

What have you done to make your home safer, for either yourself, your family or even guests!

Let's Have a Safe Summer - your Swimming Pool or Splash Pool Safety

I have this horrible fear of my children drowning in a pool. We don't have a pool and don't swim on a regular basis. We even built our home around the corner from the small lake in our development, for fear of the water (ok, and all the duck and swan poop that our neighbors with the 'waterfront' views have to deal with in their yards).

Have you tried Diet Pills?

I think many women have at least tried diet pills. I made the mistake of trying Alli and spent a lot of money on a bottle and the side effects...let's say I stopped straight away and lost my weight the old fashioned way.

Now that I am maintaining pretty well, I am still seeing ads for tons of weight loss pills, some that cost an absolute fortune.

Alli is FDA approved which made it sell pretty quickly at first but now - not so quickly. Those side effects are pretty terrible!
