The Daily Krier

I was at a wine tasting event tonight with a friend and was really shocked at how rude the woman was who was pouring the wine!  There were 5 separate wines that we were tasting and she didn’t seem at all interested in serving the people that 1) weren’t members of the wine store we [...]

I’m  a pretty good tipper and feel you should reward servers for providing excellent service.  Well, I was out for dinner last night with my husband and another couple at The Melting Pot and our server was trying way too hard to make a connection with us.  Every time she came back to our table [...]

I was a big ER fan back when the series started, then my interest waned over the past several years and I basically stopped watching.  Even knowing that this was the last season, I didn’t feel compelled to start watching again.  I did, however, tune in a couple of weeks ago to see George Clooney reprise [...]

I’ve blogged about my desire to get in shape (and with spring here it’s even more of a pressing issue) and have debated getting the Wii Fit system, paying for personal training, etc.  Well a friend is doing the Jillian Michaels’ 30-day shred program and is challenged by it, even though she’s in great shape.  [...]

I’m wondering how many of you out there are struggling with time management these days. I have the usual stuff down — family and work, but what I’m struggling with is keeping up with reading, updating my social media profiles and the like.  Where does one get the time to keep up with reading both [...]

As those of you who know me personally know, I have two young children, both boys.  My older one turned two in February and just recently started with the “why?” questions.  Everything he asks is followed with “why?”.  First question in the morning is, “Where moon go?”  I give him an answer (and it varies [...]

I’ve had plenty of massages in my day, even a couple while pregant.  And while I’ve enjoyed them all, I never stray from the standard massage even though there are lots of different types.  Well I had a massage today and when I met with the masseuse prior to the start of my appointment, she [...]

My husband and I have been debating getting a Wii Fit.  My sister-in-law and her husband have a Wii and it’s great fun.  I’ve read good things about Wii Fit but need to do a bit more research before we run out and buy it.  I mean we already have a treadmill, elliptical trainer and weight [...]

Second visit to the chiropractor today to get the results from my x-rays.  The news was not good.  Major issues in my neck, upper back and lower back.  Basically the vertebrae in my neck are bent in the exact opposite way that they should be.  Great.  At least that explains a lot.  Anyway, he pointed [...]

There’s nothing like a beautiful weekend of sunny weather to give people spring fever.  Yes, it was only 40-some degrees out yesterday, but my husband and I took our 2 boys to the Zoo and it was packed.  My older son loved the penguins, elephants and monkeys (and of course, Mahal). Given that it was [...]
