OK, I’m going to switch it up a little bit. It’s time to go a little Martha Stewart and offer a few safety tips for the holiday. The ILiveOnClayStreet Staff want all of our readers to be safe and enjoy the holiday season. Here are a few things to keep in mind when shopping for my gift, err I mean when shopping….
1. Avoid wearing expensive jewelry
This means…fellas leave the Jesus pieces at home, and ladies keep the Tiffanys’ charm bracelet in the jewelry box. When you wear expensive noticeable jewelry you literally become a walking Christmas tree wrapped in lights and tinsel for criminals. We know you want to look good, but try to stay a little low key during this time.
2. Shop during daylight hours when possible.
If you have to shop at night (midnight madness…I know, I know…) then definitely bring a friend along. There is definitely strength in numbers. A criminal will feel more intimidated by the presence of two people rather than one.
3. Dress casually and comfortably
Ladies, we know you all love to stay fly, but this tip goes back to #1 (staying low key). Easy comfortable clothes allow better movement. Not only will you be able to move around more freely in the hustle and bustle of shopping, but you never know what you may encounter in the parking lot. That stiletto just may get you caught up, ma…
And finally…
4. Stay Alert!
Be aware of your surroundings at all times. You may be able to stop a bad situation from happening before it even starts.
I hope this helps. By all means, enjoy your holiday, but just remember crooks love the holidays just as much as you do. Be Safe!!!

The journey has not been half bad (30 days no fast food). HOWEVER I have a moment here and there and I came across a commercial that describes EXACTLY how I feel when that happens. My inner Richard comes out….big ups to R. Simmons….still holding it down…hahahaha.
Be Easy

So, I was chillin with Ellis and Timmy and we got on the topic of how unhealthy fast food is for you. They urged me to watch the film “Super Size Me” (which I have yet to do). Now, me, personally I loooooove fast food. There hasn’t been a day gone by that I haven’t eaten it. I’m surprised that I don’t smell like a Big Mac Meal. BUT they raised great points that got my attention, such as how much better organic foods are for my system, how you feel differently, and how you have much more energy.
I’ve decided to take that challenge. I guess in a way this is just like my own little “Super Size Me”, but the opposite…haha. 3 days into this I’m not totally buggin out right now. I have found healthy ways to substitute the foods I’d usually eat, and I’m getting my kids involved too. Instead of that sausage egg and chesse McMuffin, I eat blueberry waffles, an egg, and mixed fruit. No more “chicken nuggets” with a fry and a soda, now it’s a turkey sandwich made at home with some veggies and an apple juice. I’m going to put 100% into this. It can only help me. A little exercise along with this new lifestyle wouldn’t hurt either. I gotta get it tight for the 3rd Rail Snow Jam :p So here we go: 30 days, No Fast Food, Healthy Living, and Positive Attitude….oh boy, what have I gotten myself into. My journey continues…
