For The Greater Good

Had to get up even earlier today to take our three year old male Pug into town and drop him off at the Humane Society so that they could transport him and approximately 38 other house pets (cats and dogs) to have them spayed or neutered. My heart broke having to leave him there in his old crate, out in the cold. He is an inside dog and doesn’t like anything to do with a crate. He actually peed on it when I got it out of the basement and put it in the living room to clean up a few days before using it.

I didn’t know that it was going to be an over night job, so I am spending tonight feeling like my best friend has gone away. I hope that I sleep all right tonight, he is always right on my feet or in the crook of my back. It is going to be a cold, long night. I really didn’t think I’d miss him this much. But I know that it is for the greater good to have this done and over with once and for all. I wonder if this will change his personality, or if he will put on weight, or just how exactly this will effect him.

Combonation Pain Relief With Electric Impulses

My mother asked me to Visit LGMedSupply Online and what I can find out about the Combo TENS Unit and Muscle Stimulator that my father has decided to purchase this type of electric impulse pain relief product. His back has been bothering him, big time, for the past couple of years and his doctor just keeps trying to get my father to take narcotics and participate in some therapy. Of course Dad wants nothing to do with either suggestion right now and he is getting grumpier and grumpier which effects everyone in numerous ways, especially my mother!

However, he has consented in trying this combination unit that allows you to receive relief with a double whammy.  This is something that he can do when he needs and wants to do it, having total control over the situation. He has always been a “control freak” so this might just be what we all have been looking and waiting for.

So far I have taken a quick peep at the site and managed to read their online customer blog on YouTube which was well made and interesting. I have been having a hard time posting videos here on my blog. I hope that this one will come through alright, I miss being able to share videos on here.

So far I am impressed with what I see on this medical supply site. I will be over at their house in the next day or two and will talk to both of them and share my thoughts with them at that time. It’s a busy time of the year, but a persons health is the most important thing, ever.

On My Soap Box for Just a Moment

I was always taught that with everything in this world that has good, there is always a bad and vice verse. The holidays are filled with such wonderful things, family, friends, good food and course all the good gifts and presents that are given and received. It is unfortunate that people do turn to drinking alcoholic beverages this time of year and that presents problems with holiday drinking and driving.

Each year we hear how they are catching so many people drinking and driving and lives are lost due to that. Christmas is no time to loose someone due to some one’s carelessness. By getting a DUI is bad news all the way around. I know several people that still don’t have their license, because of getting caught drinking and driving. It can cost you a boat load of money, jail time and then having to find high risk drivers insurance to boot.

So I’m hoping that people will drink responsibly and that we can all enjoy a fun but safe holiday this year. With all the snow still on the ground people need to stay off the bottle, stay off the cell phone and pay full attention to the road up ahead. I’ll get off my soap box now.

Really Green PRS Custom 24 Flame Electric Guitar

Although I am not one bit crazy about the weird green color of this good prs custom 24 flame electric guitar, I am happy with the price that I came up with. I’m just grateful that it isn’t me paying for it and that I just had to do the leg-work to find the darned thing and send the link to my parents so that they can get a better look at it and decide if they are really going to buy it for my pain-in-the-butt little brother Eric, who always has been spoiled rotten ever since the day he was brought into this world.

You see my dad really wanted a son and after having 3 girls in a row he was so happy to finally spawn a son that he totally went nuts and just spoiled the brat something fierce and still does. So I’m sure that they won’t think too hard about spending the just under $3,000 price tag that is attached to this particular electric guitar. Me, I’d rather spend that kind of money on a car or something that I really need. I’m sure that after a few months Eric will be tired of his new toy and it will end up under his bed or in the closet with all of his other stuff that he receives and gets bored with so quickly. My mom blames it on his ADHD but he isn’t fooling us girls any, he is just a spoiled brat, plain and simple.

Cheap Eyeglasses Are A Reality

I learned so much about eyeglasses when I worked for the Christmas shopping season at the mall years ago at a small kiosk that sold sunglasses. I never imagined how many varieties, styles, brands, sizes, price ranges, and all of the options that are out there these days for eye wear. I enjoyed working there and the experience has made me more aware of the importance of sunglasses. But I have to say that I was surprised to see how much money some of these sunglasses cost and how many people were willing to shell out some big bucks for some of the famous designer sunglasses. They just felt the need to over pay for these items, paying for the brand name is what they were doing.

Anyway I came out of the deal with enough money to have a good Christmas as well as several pairs of sunglasses that I got while they were on sale and while using my employee discount as well. We all know how easy it is to lose or break your glasses and I’m no different from anyone else and I find myself down to only one pair and that will never do. So I’ve been looking around online to see what I could find there.

I ran across an article in the Examiner that was discussing Zenni Optical and how easy it is (and affordable) to find almost any type of eye wear on their website. You can even download a picture of yourself and they have it set up to where you can virtually try on all the glasses that they sell. You name it and they seem to have it there, good quality eye wear for cheap prices.  I’ve had fun experimenting with it all and I’m placing my order next Friday. I’ll let you know what I think when I receive my order. Might even post a picture or two!

Mesothelioma

The first time I had ever heard of Mesothelioma was at work, back some ten years or so. One of the girls that I work with came in to work all freaked out and upset because her cousin had just been diagnosed with Mesothelioma. We all got an education from her about this horrible type of cancer that is becoming a major concern for so many people.

These days the TV is full of attorneys that are advertising their specialities in the Mesothelioma Cancer area. I can only pray that this gal’s family found themselves a good Florida Mesothelioma Lawyer to help them with their expenses due to this type of cancer. It seems that her cousin was in the Navy in Vietnam and contacted this disease while on one of their submarines. Now how crazy is that? Apparently the subs had asbestos in them and now a good amount of our veterans are suffering from Mesothelioma, what a total bummer.

I’m glad that we have the Internet to turn to for information that we need for things just such as this. The more you know and the better informed you are the better it is all the way around. I hope that they start finding cures for all these types of cancer that we keep discovering that killing us off each and every day.

Peace Out……….

Zenni Optical Online

I love how the Internet makes it possible to research products and compare prices, at my convenience and letting my fingers do the walking on my lap top’s keyboard. I just got back from the eye doctor and it seems that I need new eyeglasses. Not just any type of eyeglasses mind you but bifocals, ugh……………In my mind I’m way too young to be needing bifocals, but the doctor knows best, right?

With money being so tight I was leery of going next door and purchasing my new glasses at the optical store which is so conveniently located right next store to his office. I wanted a chance to do some comparison shopping to see what types of deals I could find on my own. I’ve heard good things about Zenni Optical so I took some time this afternoon during my break at work and checked them out. When I Googled Zenni Optical I found an article that enlightened me about Zenni Optical. Did you know that they start their eyeglasses at $8.00, now how cool is that to be able to get good quality glasses at a nice low price? I’ll let you know how it all pans out and I might even post a picture of me with my new glasses on…………………….

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……
