Dehydration Could Be The Death Of You
I found this dehydration infographic and it is really hitting home for me. You see, I just lost my uncle unexpectedly from a massive heart attack.

I have ...

Product Review: Knuckle Lights
Since my Pavement Warriors and me were running outside in the dark in the wee early morning I thought it necessary to have some additional lighting because a few of our divas experienced some spills. Unfortunately in our neck of the woods, there aren’t many street lamps shining bright at 5:00 am.
I found these Knuckle Lights from doing ...
