I love this site. This woman is amazing in the house and home genre of blogging. She has built an entire business around it, complete with a show on the Food Network now. She is the Pioneer Woman. Her name is Ree and I just love going to her page for new recipes and ideas. I have thought from time to time about home schooling when I have kids one day, but I am not sure that I have the temperament for that. I keep up with her blog on homeschooling though because I have learned from my sister about how horrible the schools have gotten around here. It is a thought I will not throw out for the moment though. Anyway, I thought I would share with you all and I hope you like this page as much as I do.
A little DIY for the girls
So here is a little video on how to make stands to hold your fashion jewelry. I found it very easy to make and cheap as well. We all love to get those little items from yard sales that no one else really wants, and here is a good use for some of them. With very little effort, you can make this and have all of those accessories up and out of those boxes that clutter your dresser. It makes it much easier to find what you are looking for if it is up and in plain view. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.
Old friends
Social networks can be a lot of fun and re connect people who have seemingly disappeared from your life. People move and we lose track of them as the years pass by, but not anymore. Now we find those who were lost from our lives. I have made a lot of re connections over the last couple of years through Face Book, but I have had just as many sad moments when I find out someone is sick, dying or passed away already. There have been quite a few of those lately and I am starting to feel a little old.
Two days ago and old friend who was part of a group of friends I used to hang out with had a massive stroke. He is only forty nine years old. He was always one of the older members of our group but he isn’t old by any stretch of the word. I am worried for his recovery right now, as he cannot say any other word but the word no and cannot move the right side of his body. It is very sad for his daughter who is having to deal with her father in this condition at such a young age. I hope and pray for his speedy recovery.
Auction site
I found this neat auction site called DealDash. It looks like they have just about anything a person could possibly want on their site. The auctions sell these products for way less then you would be able to buy them anywhere else. There was all kinds of electronics, gift cards, video games, kitchen appliances and much more. I was really surprised. A two hundred dollar gift card sold for about fifty dollars. That is just amazing savings. I am going to try out the site and see what I can get from it. I will have to wait until the weekend when I am off of work, so that I have plenty of time to watch whatever I am bidding on.
If I win anything, I promise to post about it on here so you can see it too. I always try to let you guys know when I find really good savings. I like to pass it along and help others. I find all kinds of neat stuff online. Sometimes, I buy and sometimes I don’t, but I always let you know about it. There is one camera that I saw on there, and I am hoping they will have others later for me to bid on.
So pretty
Oh he is just beautiful. I wish I had a horse that looked like that. I have always loved horses. Like most girls, they fascinated me when I was young, and apparently I have not outgrown that. I doubt that most women really do. Once you fall in love with horses, it stays with you for life.
