Scrubs For The Summer

As you know I am looking for some new clothes to wear for the hot summer months. As much as I love summer, the heat is becoming harder and harder to tolerate, so it is getting harder to find clothes to wear that keep me cooler while still looking at least half way decent out in public. My sister just gave me a great idea about wearing some of the scrubs uniforms that so many of our medical people have been wearing and enjoying for years now. They are indeed coming out with some pretty cool scrub uniforms these days, so I’m taking her recommendation and have gone to blue sky scrubs website and ordered a couple sets of them to try out.

Of course I took advantage of the sets that they currently have on sale. The colors are all good colors for me to wear so it wasn’t a problem finding some that I think will do the trick quite nicely. I like that they have free returns and exchanges for all orders and that you can get free shipping with orders of $155 or more, which I just barely qualified for, but I did it!

Affordable Fender Amps Verified

It’s always gratifying to see that you made a good decision on some of the items/gifts that you have managed to purchase just a few months ago. Like the fender amps that I took such a good amount of time researching all kinds of the various affordable fender amps out there and basically crossing my fingers that I had made a good choice. I didn’t buy the cheapest nor did I dish out the cash for the most expensive top-of-the-line one either. In the long run, you do get what you pay for, more often time than not. So I try to go somewhere in the middle if at all possible

So while waiting for dinner to finish up last night I was do just a bit of looking around and saw that the price that I paid for the fender amps back in late October were indeed a good deal. Which surprises me considering how right now is a good time to get deals with all the summer sales that are still going strong and of course the 4th of July is right around the corner which is a good time for them to get rid as much as last years items as they can. A crazy time for the good folks in retail.

Good Money In Translating

It seems to me that any type of legal translation services (off or online) would be welcomed all across the country. With so many people traveling as much as they do these days and so many languages being spoken ( estimated to be between 5 and 6 thousand) there is certainly a great need to be able to communicate.

With this in mind I certainly wish that I had buckled down more in school and taken more languages classes. I did take 7th grade Spanish, twice. Once in 7th grade and then again in summer school because my mother didn’t have day care for me during the summer months so I had to take Typing and Spanish that summer. I can type really good, but as far as the Spanish that is a whole other ballgame.

It very well could be that I would have been making some pretty decent money at this time of my life. The Spanish language is widely used in so many areas of the world, or at least some type of Latin based language. I can muddle through a bit with many Hispanic people that I run across during my daily life, but to be able to hold a decent conversation, much less translate, no can do.

Jerky Dog Treats

Every once in a while a product that’s been on the shelves for a long time but never got your attention before will suddenly grab your attention and end up in your shopping cart. Sometimes it is placement on the store shelves that moves and you realize you are out of your routine. Sometimes it is new packaging, such as brighter colors on the box design or change from a box to a resealable bag. Sometimes it must be a mental response to a commercial or even subliminal advertising. Well, whatever the reason, today I noticed a bag of chicken jerky in the aisle for dog treats. It seemed to be a good sized bag with multiple treats inside, so I decided on a lark to buy a bag and see if my dog likes them. We haven’t broken into the bag yet but I’ll let you know if they are a hit or a miss.

Wedding Bands For Women

A few months ago my dear friend Russel called me shortly after my arrival home from work, and he wanted me to meet his girlfriend he thinks is “the one” and wanted to see if they could possibly come visit us for a few days to visit not only the kids and I, but his girlfriends parents live only a few blocks from me so they also wanted to meet my friend Russel. Shortly after both Russel and his girlfriend arrived his girlfriend got pulled on my daughters room by of course my daughter who wanted to show her everything  LOL!

It was then that Russel admitted to me that he’s going to ask her to marry him a few days after meeting her parents and he needed help finding an engagement and wedding ring. I told him we could search for one later on that night after his girlfriend and my kids went to sleep. We stayed up all night looking for the perfect rings and he decided to go the smart shopping and found wedding bands for women on an awesome website that offered beautiful rings for unbelievable prices that wanna make you sing. After ordering the perfect ring he is so confident and is do excited about the day he asks. I’m so happy I got to meet Russel’s girlfriend,  and so happy to help my dear friend Russel find the perfect ring for the perfect woman.

No Nonsense Please……………..

Zenni Optical has been in business for quite some time. I know several people that have used them and have been very pleased with their service, their prices and their eye wear that they have to offer the general public. I guess the other retailers of eye wear have got their nose out of joint and are starting to come down on businesses like Zenni Optical who make it easier for us to afford and purchase all types of glasses at deep discounted prices.

There is no reason we should have to spend a ton of money to get eyeglasses that most of us end up having to wear at some point in our life time. Times are hard enough as it is, with the economy in the toilet and all. It really bugs me when businesses try and stick it to us with outrageous mark ups that they feel are justified. What a bunch of nonsense. It seems that now there are eye doctors that are not willing to provide their patients with the much needed information that is needed in order to order glasses. What a scam, I’m glad that my eye doctor wouldn’t dream of pulling that type of nonsense on his patients.

Business Card Printing For Everyone

It is so cute to see how my kid sister is handing out her newly designed and printed business cards to anyone that will take one. You see, she is a stay-at-home mom that was blessed with a set of twin boys, Terry and Jerry. She used to be a working woman and is having a hard time adjusting to the transition of becoming mother.

Just about every day that it isn’t raining or snowing, sis takes the boys to the park where there are a lot of other moms and dads networking amongst themselves while watching their kid(s) on the playground day after day. It seems that the business card printing industry is a big deal for these dedicated parents to hand out with all of their contact information to the other adults that they run into during their day.

 

Offerings of Good Drums

My sister and my niece have been staying with me for a few months now since it is more logical due to the financial crisis we both are experiencing. I only have a 2 bedroom home so my sister and I ended up making the garage into a play area or hangout area for my niece, since she has been asking about having her own space.

When we finished it up, we talked about purchasing some good dynasty drums for her to play around with since her old drum set was ruined by their dog at their previous home. I searched around on the net to see what I could find and that was suitable for her and our pockets. I came across a really cool site that offered good dynasty drums for an unbelievable prices, and was excited for my sister to see. When I finally got her to sit down and take a look, she was amazed at the prices and immediately ordered one we both thought she would enjoy.

In no time it had arrived at the house and was ready for us to set up in my nieces new hang out room. When my niece had come home from school she walked into the garage and was shocked and ran over to the drum set and immediately took to it. She is enjoying her new drum set and hang out room to the fullest. I couldn’t be any happier or more thrilled and I know my sister and niece are too without question.

Modes of Transportation Up For Sale

The amount of various modes of transportation sitting by the side of the road with For Sale signs placed upon them, are growing as the economy is still in such turmoil. At first is was mainly cars, then the boats and motorcycles started showing up here and there. Living out in the country as I do we are seeing more and more pieces of equipment used for transportation up for sale.

On my way home from work the other day I saw a boom lift sale, it didn’t have a price on it so I have no idea what kind of money they are asking. It has become the norm to see tractors and other used material lifts up for sale around here. But I swear there are more and more of them each and every day. I hate to see our local farmers struggling and having to sell their important pieces of farm equipment. This has been a miserable winter, let’s hope that the spring will be better for all of us.

Beauty Salon Equipment Supplies By Elegans

Next week will be a great week if the weather could only cooperate a bit more. The kids will be out of school for their spring break and we are all piling into the car and heading down to North Carolina to spend some time with Judy and her kids. Judy and I have been very close friends since the fourth grade. Even though she moved down south, an eight hour drive from here, we have managed to keep in close contact with each other using our cell phones and of course there is always email and Facebook that we can rely on to communicate with each other.

Judy is in the process of opening up her own beauty salon. It will be good to be right there with her to get a good look at all of the things that she has been telling me about. Finding the right beauty equipment for sale has been a challenge for her. She is lucky that her mother lives less than 5 miles away and used to work as a beautician before they moved down there. I have always been envious of their close mother/daughter relationship. My mother and I rarely talk. I can’t imagine my mother just randomly coming over to the house and just hang out for the day. With her it still requires an invitation and it takes hours to get the place cleaned up before she is scheduled to arrive.

Anyway it looks like she has decided on the salon equipment sydney that she found online with the link that I found and sent her a few weeks ago. That makes me feel good to have been able to contribute to her new goal, even living so far away from each other. Watch out North Carolina, here we come!
