Underwear Issues

Saturday, October 15th, 2011

One thing I can say about mens underwear is that it is pretty darned easy to order them online. I don’t know about you but when I need new underwear I have to go out shopping and look through endless piles and racks of under garments and then try all the ones that I have found on. What a pain that is considering that you have to (and really need to) keep your own underwear on underneath the new ones, for sanitary reasons of course. It is so hard to get the real feel of things that way, if you know what I mean.

I have been buying my son’s and my husbands underwear for as long as I remember and now I have been purchasing them online which has been a time and money saver, both of which are awesome. I can usually find good deals and free shipping is always a must when ordering anything online, if not those shipping and handling charges can really rack up the final total bill and we can’t be having that these days.

Saying A Prayer For The Weekend Weather Scare

Friday, August 26th, 2011

I’m so glad that I switched over to Direct TV. I just hope that we don’t lose power over the weekend due to the up and coming arrival of the hurricane that we have been watching the progress of on our new Direct TV system. I have always wanted a generator for the house just for occasions such as this, but we haven’t had the extra money lately to put into something like this. Right now my main concern is finding a home security system to have installed so I have Googled “home security cordova” to see what kind of deals I can find.

Since the economy doesn’t seem to be letting up at all, there has been more and more home break ins and robberies happening and I just don’t feel safe anymore. Even though we really don’t have much of anything of value around here they could still walk away with some of the electronics and really trash the place searching for more things that we might possibly have and that just wouldn’t be cool. We have worked hard for the things that we have.

In the mean time I’m praying that these hurricane doesn’t hit as hard as they are saying it could hit. Be safe.

A Mother’s Work Is Never Done

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011

Our oldest son has always had issues with his teeth, and now that he is grown and out on his own I’m afraid that he isn’t taking his oral hygiene as seriously as he should be and I’m not happy about it one bit. I have spent so money on this kid’s mouth that it just isn’t funny and to think that he isn’t following up on all the time, money, effort and work that has been put into that mouth of his just jerks my chain.

His girlfriend sent me an email today informing me that she thinks that he needs to see a Periodontist and is asking me to step into the picture and urge him to find a Periodontist that will take his insurance and is taking new patients. So I have decided to do a bit of the leg work for him and went to smilegeneration.com to see if I could find a Periodontist for him. I love how the Internet makes a task such as this a much easier task to tackle, it sure beats thumbing through the Big Yellow Book trying to find what you want and need. I don’t even have any phone books in my house any more, they were just taking up space and collecting dust so as soon as one arrives at the end of the drive way they go straight into the paper recycling bin and good riddance to them all.

So I did find a couple of Periodontists that fit the bill and I have sent him an email with the information that is needed and I can only hope that he takes it from there, if not I guess I will have go into my “nag” mode and I really don’t like going there any more than I have to.

My Own Company!

Guest post written by my buddy Aldo Mays

Being a writer has always been a dream of mine and here I am in my mid-20s finally realizing it! I love the way I get to make my own schedule and work for who I want and I also love how creative this business allows me to be on a daily basis. When I first started, a lot of my clients wanted to use a credit card to pay me but I wasn’t sure how to do so. I went to http://bank-card-processing.com and tried to find a solution. Once that was taken care of I was more or less up and running and once I got my website completed, I was a total professional! Life is good as an entrepreneur and I’m even getting so busy that I may have to start contracting out some of my work ! When I quit my real job a few years back I never would have guessed things would turn out so well for me in this endeavor but I guess it shows that taking a risk is usually worth it!

Cool Cotton For The Summer Heat

Friday, July 15th, 2011

This summer has been so hot that I haven’t been able to enjoy any of the outside activities that I usually participate in, due to the extreme heat. It seems that the older I get the worse I am with dealing with extreme temperatures, hot or cold. I’m having a hard time finding the right kind of clothes to wear during this heat wave of a summer. It seems that all of the shorts that I usually wear during the summer just aren’t cutting the mustard, they seem to tight and constricting which is so uncomfortable to begin with and when the sweat starts into the picture I am so miserable. Even my deodorant is failing me this year, I’m just a mess.

So, my best friend came up with a great idea and sent me the link to http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/ and told me to pick out a set of cotton scrubs that I wouldn’t mind wearing in public this summer. I was amazed to see all of the varieties of medical uniforms that are out there for our good folks that are in the medical field. So it didn’t take me long to find several outfits that I wouldn’t mind sporting around town. I put my order in and they should be arriving in short order and I’m excited to find out how they look and fit and mainly how they feel out in this outrageous heat. Thanks BFF for the idea, hope it works!
