Vitamins

So they make these "Animal Pak" vitamins, designed for the body builder i guess. Well I decided to get better about my vitamin and mineral intake.
I present you, the "Amanda Pak"...I even made my very own container out of an oatmeal can that looks just like the "Animal Pak."
My Amanda Pak contains:
Multi Vitamin-2 a day
Calcium and Vitamin D-Good for bone health and calcium good for preventing cramps during yucky time
Flexamin-containing glucosamine and condroiten for healthy joints
Cranberry-no UTI's here
Dong Quai-Good for female hormone balance, also helps with cramps, and good for hair growth in women
Stinging Nettle-Good for Iron deficiency, also helps with hair growth
Biotin- Good for hair, skin, and nails
Magnesium-works with Calcium to prevent cramps, also good for muscle and nervous system function.

I have been taking them all regularly for a couple weeks. I feel better. And no yucky time cramps.:)
In Health,

Just not the same without her

Gem City Chorus, my second family for the last 2 years, is going through some changes. Our beloved Jean Barford, Master Director, announced her retirement last night after 40 years of directing Gem City. Jean is very special, and gave me the opportunity to sing again. I hadn't since I graduated college, and it is my passion. She gave me the opportunity to be apart of something great, something big. Gem City will now be going through a transition that will probably involve renaming the chapter, losing a lot of members, and rebuilding. I am so thankful to have been able to sing under Jean Barford for the last 2 years. Lots of people couldn't say that. Jean has a wonderful gift and has coached more chorus and quartet champions than any other director in the whole organization. I am also thankful I was able to compete with THE Gem City Chorus while under the direction of the one and only Jean Barford. I don't know what I will do from here because Gem City as I know it will soon cease to exist. For those of you who don't know what Sweet Adelines International is, you can't begin to understand this. Sweet Adelines has changed my life, Gem City has taught me so much, and Jean Barford ...will always be loved.
