Toddler Room: Panton Chair, Toys and More

Do you have a kid who is starting to learn how to play games? Do you plan on building a playroom just for him to enjoy? Are you having problems on what to place inside this room once it is finished? If your answer to all these questions is a resounding yes, then you should continue reading.

In any type of room, proper furniture and fixtures should be placed to add life and beauty to the room. The same is the case when developing a toddler’s room for your child or children. Here are some of the objects which should be present inside the room:

  • Toys – These things should always be present inside the playroom. Aside from the fact that they are the primary entertainment of your kids, they also keep them busy while you are doing the dishes or ironing the clothes. However, you have to make sure that you only place those toys which have been certified safe for children.
  • Coloring materials – According to research, there are two main activities which children do inside a playroom – play or color. Once they get tired of playing, they will look for another activity that looks fun but does not require as much energy as playing does.
  • Books – If your child has already reached five or six years old, it would greatly help him if you would include some educational books to entertain him. Make sure to spend some quality time with him every once in a while.
  • Panton chair – A room would not be complete without a decent and quality piece of furniture that your kids can sit on. This particular chair is not only safe, but also comes in different colors.
  • Mat – A playing mat or foam is vital in any playroom. If possible, it should cover the entire floor area of the room to keep your kids away from injuries due to excessive playing.
  • Air conditioner – Of course, you would want your child to feel comfortable whenever he goes to the playroom. If this is not possible, two electric fans would do.
  • Miniature playground – This is definitely not a requirement, but if you can afford it, then make sure you provide it. You may place a small seesaw, swing, and slide inside the room to keep your child and his friends busy.

These are just some of the objects, things and pieces of furniture which you should include inside your child’s playroom the moment it is finished. Among all these factors, the Panton chair may be one of the most crucial. Getting a sturdy and stable chair is very important to avoid accidents and other untoward incidents.

This specific chair design has been developed several decades ago, yet it has still managed to become popular in this time and age. Sporting a future and space theme, the Panton chair is a chair that will definitely get the attention of kids. And because it has a unibody design, you would not need to worry about creaking parts and features which get damaged easily.

Ladies Night Out

Once in a blue moon I’ll go out with some friends to a bar/restaurant for dinner and drinks. I can’t afford to go out as often as I would like to, but we are all experiencing hard times at this point with the economy in crisis and all. I’m trying to save as much money as possible, when ever I can, so when we do head out we try and make it on a Ladies Night, where the drinks are  more affordable for all us.

Last week we decided it was due time for a ladies night out and we went to our favorite “hole in the wall” and had a blast. We had a designated driver and all went well. No fights broke out, no one got so drunk that they ended up throwing up in the ladies room or the parking lot and each of us were able to go to work the next morning without a hitch.

We really enjoy going to this “hole in the wall” bar/restaurant. The waitresses are always nice and the owners are really great people that are just trying to keep their doors open with the rising costs that they are having to deal with. So we don’t mind throwing our business to them, when we are able to. The only problem is that they don’t have any foot rails for the patrons that end up sitting at the bar, so much of the night was discussing the issue with the owners. I think we made our point, they have consented to looking into the matter for us. So the next time we go I hope that they will have found some that they can afford to have installed and we all should be happy!

Atlanta Georgia 55 Community

For so many years our senior citizens have flocked to Florida for a variety of reasons, the warm weather being the biggest draw. But with all things good there are some bad things. With this warm weather comes, bugs and other critters that enjoy the heat and humidity down in the Land of Sunshine. As well as the hurricanes that seem to love causing havoc all over that part of the country.

Then our seniors started heading to Arizona and New Mexico. That was a huge success, but so far away for so many folks. Then all of a sudden the Carolinas, both north and south became the popular destinations, but I fear they are filling up and now we are seeing an increase of folks heading to the beautiful state of Georgia. My folks are looking at a particular Atlanta 55 Community, which sounds promising for all concerned. I don’t really know a lot about the state of Georgia, but will start digging further online to find out more so I am more familiar with the area.

It will be so weird for my parents to be living so far south from here, but we all knew that it would happen in due time.

Plastic Surgery

It is amazing what cosmetic surgeons can do with a body these days. One day I would really like to get a nose jog. Nothing major, just a little minor adjustment so that I wouldn’t be so self conscience about it for the rest of my life. My whole family has nose issues, so I got mine honestly, but it doesn’t mean that I have to like it.

I’ve been looking at some Before and After Photos online lately, trying to get my courageup and getting some ideas and price ranges. The Internet makes something like this a much simpler task and it has an educational as well as entertaining experience thus far.

You Go Girl!

My niece has always been very prepared for any physical threat that comes her way. I honestly can’t blame her tho, she used to assist in self defense classes with children and had picked up the habit of carrying a can of mase in her purse along the way, after hearing some terrifying stories of brutal beatings due to the lack of defense skills and mechanisms. Lately she’s been talking about possibly of purchasing a hand gun or even a stun gun for extra protection due to some peoples tolerance to mas.

So I thought we would search around on the net and try to find some affordable stun guns so that no matter what situation, nobody gets shot by a gun and possibly result in death. She thought it was a great idea, so we pursued the search. We came across a few standard stun guns that didn’t strike her attention. We kept on with the search, until she stopped me on a site that offered great quality and affordable safety girl stun guns. She pointed out one in particular that she really wanted so we ordered it and she is now constantly shooting the practice target poster board that came with her stun gun. She tells me she is feeling more confident of her and her loved ones safety now that she has her own stun gun. I’m down with that, you go girl!

Once A Month Is Enough For Me

It seems that there are a large amount of people that are suffering from digestive issues, what a drag. I know a lot of people that are dealing with stomach issues, mainly IBS, that are always looking for new products to help them ease the discomfort that goes along with this imbalance issue.

One of the ladies at work is trying the product of threelac that she found online. It is a natural solution for digestion candida and yeast imbalance control. She misses a couple of days a month due to her stomach woes, I can really feel for her. OMG once a month my gut is on fire for three to five days, I can’t imagine dealing with pain any more than that whole period deal.

As far as thrush goes, that’s a whole different story to share at a later time, ugh……

 

A New Baby In The Family Expected in August

My sister Jenny is expecting their fourth child in August and she is just now starting to show her baby bump. You would think that since she already had three kids that being pregnant would be almost old hat by now. But this pregnancy was not exactly planned. It was a nice surprise. Jenny is a great mom and she loves doing things with her kids. After her last baby almost five years ago, she thought it WAS her last baby so she gave away all her maternity clothes. Now she needs to move out of regular clothes and into maternity clothes and money is really tight, so my family is going to pitch in and help her buy several things so she has nice clothes to wear to work.

As important as it is to have some nice work clothes to wear Monday through Friday, we also need to start looking for baby items as well. Yard sales and Flea Markets are always a great way to get a good amount of baby related items. But there are some things that are better off being bought brand new. And course there will be a couple of baby showers being held that will help out with numerous items as well. They will most likely through her one at work and of course friends and family will be planning on one as well, so that will help out with a lot of things for her and the baby. This is so exciting, we haven’t had a new baby in the family in quite a few years!

 

Safeguarding The Public’s Food

This peanut butter recall has been going on for a couple of weeks now and I keep hearing about how more and more people are getting sick from food poisoning and at last count I think I read that 18 have died from complications. All because a crappy manufacturing plant has been getting away with unsanitary conditions for months and selling contaminated peanuts and peanut paste to people who used it for hundreds of different products. All those products are now suspect and being pulled from the shelves. Who knows what is safe to eat now?

There is a recall list on the Government’s FDA site, but it keeps growing longer and the story continues to worsen. I can’t take any chances on tainted food, so I’ve thrown out anything in my pantry that has peanuts or peanut products in it. That was like $60 worth of food wasted – and I despise wasting food. But I can’t afford to get food poisoning and die from peanut butter. Now I heard that there is a second crappy plant in Texas that has been doing the same thing. This is outrageous and one more example of the failure of both the FDA and the state health departments to inspect facilities and safeguard the public.

Making A Fashion Statement

One thing that I have been reluctant to admit is that I have trouble reading now. Everyone knows that once you hit 30 years old you are facing the inevitable need for reading glasses. The problem is that if you have been wearing eyeglasses most of your life for correction of your distance vision, the need for reading glasses means that you will need bifocals. I’m having a hard time admitting that I need eyeglasses that are bifocals. It makes me think of my dad in his later years and wearing bifocals just seems to make you old.

So my sister told me that I just to need to “get over myself” and get my eyes the help they need to be able to read. She says I look a bigger fool for not being able to read a menu at the restaurant than being so vain about bifocals. She went so far as to suggest that eyeglasses can be a fun fashion accessory. That made me think about eyeglasses – even bifocals – in a different light. What if I could buy several pairs of eyeglasses and use them as accessories? They would have to be inexpensive – as opposed to cheap – so I could have several pairs in different styles and colors.

 

 

Reputable Surgeons at Realistic Prices in the U.K.

As I’ve mentioned on numerous occasions here, I have been experiencing a weight issue all my life. I have heard some great stories about some of the procedures that are now available for folks like myself and have decided to start doing a bit of research on Cosmetic Surgery. A few of my friends and co workers have had the lap band surgery that is all the rage, I don’t think that I would be a good candidate for that particular procedure, but I do think that I might possibly be a good candidate for some good old liposuction.

People are going over seas for a lot of their cosmetic surgery these days. You can get much better prices in the U.K., and I’d have no problem taking a quick trip over there myself. I have some relatives over there that have issued me an open door invitation that I could take advantage of, so I could kill two birds with one stone, so to speak. I would love to see them and be able to see where they live and take care of my weight issue once and for all. Something that I definitely want and need to look into possibly after the holiday season is over and done with.
