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.

A Karaoke Birthday

My birthday is right around the corner and everyone in my family is asking me what I want this year, so I have been thinking about it and I have decided my top pick would have to be a home karaoke machine. Ever since I was a young kid I’ve always find myself turning up some of my favorite music and singing along (quite loudly, mind you) with it, dancing around the room with a spiral hair brush in my hand pretending it is my microphone. Most of my girlfriends did the same thing and when we would all get together we would spend most of it listening, singing and talking about music. Man didn’t we have some great times, all based around the magic of music.

And the sleep-overs, I swear I don’t think I ever spent a weekend along. I was either at one of my friends house or one or more was sleeping over at my place. Most of the time we were at my house, it was always so kid friendly and a safe place for all the kids of the neighborhood and all the other kids that wanted or needed a place to hang and have fun. My parents made a huge effort to make and keep it that way for as long as possible. They still have people come to the door that used to come over  and play that just wanted to stop by and say hello and see if our family was still calling the house our home. My mother really gets a kick out of seeing how much they have grown and changed and hear all of there stories.

Well back to the subject of a karaoke machine I searched around on the Internet for some idea of the prices that they are asking for today’s home karaoke machines, and where to buy a microphone that I would like with it and had found a particular website that offers so many awesome karaoke machines for outrageously low prices. I sent out an email shared this sites URL with my close family members that have asked me for any ideas that I might have for a birthday gift this year.

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!

Doomed From The Beginning

As far as any one of us were concerned, our musician friend Eric had flown the coop to San Francisco and had no plans of seeing him again any time soon. He and his buddy, Josh, left right after Christmas, they loaded up their cargo van with all of their musical instruments and equipment and a few things that they would need once they got there and got settled in and left town with the biggest grins on their faces. A Kodak moment to be sure, too bad no one had a camera and didn’t think to use any of the cell phones that we all had that could have captured the moment, sigh.

So imagine my surprise to answer the door last night to find Eric and Josh both standing on my front porch looking pretty ragged and tired. I got them in, fixed them some grub and brought in the six-pack that I had just purchased on my way home and settled in to hear their tales of woe.

They were doomed from the beginning with getting two flat tires even before leaving the state and of course they only had one spare. That held them up an extra day and put a hurting in their budge right off. Then one night when they were in a restaurant/bar some body broke into their vehicle and stole a bunch of their equipment, including Eric’s brand new apogee quartet that he had just gotten for Christmas, which broke Eric’s heart and his spirit enough to were they never made it out to California at all. How depressing this whole adventure turned out to be.

Searching for Chocolate

My sister belongs to the local Red Hatter’s club, so I’ve been helping her to find a cool restaurant to hold their March gathering. They are a great group of ladies, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting most of them at various functions that I’ve attended with my sister. One day I’ll be joining the club, but you have to be 50 years old and I have a ways to go yet, but it will come soon enough, I’m sure.

Anyways, it is cool that we no longer have to rely on the old fashioned paper version of the local yellowpages to find local restaurants and such and that we can turn to the Internet to find just about anything you need at any time. Whether it is a local search or trying to find something half way across the world, it’s all there for the taking for anyone looking.

We did come up with a place called The Frenchman’s Corner, that sounds interesting, you can drink your coffee or tea and  taste their Belgian chocolates on a what is promised to be a journey of gastronomic sweet delights. Going with a group of friends to a place like that is perfect. If and when they decide to go there I’ll tag along, sounds like fun and I love chocolate!

Insurance Needs and Wants

Shopping for your normal every day life insurance policies online has become a lot easier these days. I remember way back, years ago trying to do some comparison shopping for my auto insurance using the computer and it was a real hassle. I finally got so frustrated that I just about tossed the stupid laptop out the living room window and gave up. That left a real bad taste in my mouth, a taste that I just can’t seem to get our of my system for way too many years.

I was watching a friend go online the other day and it didn’t take him all that long to get some decent quotes for his home and auto insurance needs and wants. He finally hooked up with an agency don allred insurance burlington nc and couldn’t be happier, so I have decided to give it one more try for myself. I mean it shouldn’t be all that bad. I do spend a good amount of time on a computer at work and at home, so I shouldn’t have too much trouble figuring this whole free online quotes and get a much better bang for my buck.

According to all the TV commercials that we end up watching year after year put out by most of the well known top 10 insurance companies, I should be able to save at least $300 a year on my auto insurance policy, if I take my time, follow through and do it right. There is so much I could do with saving $300 a year!

Marching Bands

While looking online at various musical instrument sites, trying to find a good deal on an electric guitar to get for my nephew for Christmas I came across some exquisite Atkinson french horns that brought back a flood of memories from my days back in high school. One of our favorite things to do was to go to the Friday night football games, man those were some extraordinarily good times. The half time celebration was always a blast. I knew a lot of the kids that were in the marching band that always played during this exciting half time. To this day I get goose bumps whenever I see or hear a marching band play like in a parade, or on TV or in a movie, or even on YouTube!

I am still on the look out for a good guitar and with Christmas only a couple of weeks away I’m starting to get a bit nervous about the whole ordeal. It’s a good thing that I got a lot of my Christmas shopping done way ahead of time.

Immigration

We got the news that our good friend Jimmy passed away last night. The whole community will miss all that he did for the immigrates in various neighborhoods around town that are mainly occupied by Latinos. He was a great friend with a big heart that brought a lot of business to the immigration attorney right downtown. We had the pleasure of going to several meetings and learned so much about the immigration issues that we are all concerned about and are effected by.

I am sure that when they get the whole situation under control and announce what type of service will be held that there will be larger than normal crowd attending. I wouldn’t expect anything less for Jimmy.

Sexual Harassment Attorney In The San Diego Area

It breaks my heart to keep hearing the same old story from my youngest sister, who moved all the way across the county and eventually landed in the San Diego California area. She has had the worst luck finding a job. Nothing comes cheap in the entire state of California, much less the San Diego area and if you don’t have a decent income, things can spiral deep down before you can even bat an eye. You want the great weather, you got to pay dearly for it!

Once she finds a job, it doesn’t last long. Each time she is complaining that it is some form of sexual harassment. She is a beautiful girl and she does bring a lot of attention to herself, but a girl has got to draw the line some where before she ends up searching online for the best san diego sexual harassment attorney that there is and take this nonsense to an entire different level for once.

I say a prayer for her every night before I lay my head down, along with a long list of close family and friends.

That Darned Check Engine Light

I’ve noticed that my check engine light has been on for the past few weeks and I guess I really need to get it checked out in case it is something serious. God I hope not. It drives me crazy when that light comes on, I don’t always have time to take my Ford R-150 to an auto shop to see what is going on. Although most shops are not as busy as they would like to be, due to the economy, so the waiting time isn’t as bad as it used to be, but I still hate taking the time out of my busy schedule to tend to things such as this. It is never a quick fix and even with an appointment you still can end up waiting for way too long.

I’ve a friend who just started working at a nice local auto repair shop that tells me that busy has really slowed down and they are looking for business big time and is urging me to bring the truck to them this Saturday.  Since my friend is working there I feel confident that I will not be ripped off and will be taken seriously about the light issue and my financial situation at this point.
