The Junior Prom This Year

It will be nice to see my daughter and her current boyfriend all dressed up for the Junior Prom, at the end of the year. We have already been looking at dresses, shoes, handbags and all of the other accessories that it takes to dress up all formal like. He has been looking at various tuxedo vests to match the color of the dress, when my daughter finally makes a decision on her dress, which better be soon. He has a lot to do himself for this big event.

This will be fun. I never got to go to any of the formal dances back in my high school years, so this is all so new and exciting for me. Never thought that I would be one of those mothers that gets all crazy during these memory making moments. And to think this is only the Junior Prom. I can’t imagine what all is involved with next year’s Senior Prom although I’m sure there will be a limo some how involved.

Crappy Service

Today I had gone to the grocery store and had purchased a few items. I had a few problems trying to find a few items and had asked for help, but didn’t seem to get any service at all with finding these certain items. So I had came home in a bad mood, and had wrote a letter to the store’s office complaining about their crappy services, and had received a phone call not too long afterwards apologizing and offering me coupons to save big in their store. I took the coupon offer and plan on only shopping there one more time just so I could use the coupons. I don’t deal with crappy service, its unacceptable to me.

Hubby Cleans Up Real Nice!

Even though Hubby is a “Blue collar worker” and his wardrobe consists mainly of tee shirts and jeans with a few Khakis and sweatshirts thrown in, he does have a few nice clothes but I have decided that it is now time for it to have an much needed upgrade, cause Hubby does clean up real nice!

I want to purchase by going online from a website – upscalemenswear.com that has gotten my attention, it’s by a company by the name of Upscale Menswear that is located in  Atlanta, Georgia, but thankfully they have made it possible to buy from them the most unique, colors and styles from brand names like Steve Harvey, Romano Fiesso and Robert Wayne, some wonderful hi-fashion suits and designer shoes  like the ones that are always seen and worn in Hollywood and New york, but are offered at realistic prices, without having to take the long drive by use of the good old Internet! I think that I will enjoy this.

Online Banking Solutions

Well the “Pink Stuff” was hit at my sister’s house this afternoon, we had a nice time with the dozen or so of the family that were able to attend, my eldest daughter decided to go with me at the last minute, which was nice. We really had a nice time during the drive down, listening to music and laughing together. I had her drive because she still doesn’t know the way to her aunt’s house enough to get there by herself if need be some time, she is a good driver and it gives me time to look around at the scenery for a change instead of focusing on the road and traffic and such.

One of my brother’s came with his wife that is such a doll, we don’t get to see her very often so I made sure and took the time to visit and chat with her as much as I could. She caught me up to date with her attempt of starting up her own business that is keeping her super busy and worn out physically and mentally. She is working with a company called Northern Trust that she hooked up with on the Internet, that has assigned her a financial advisor that she thinks very highly of and is trusting him to guide her in these important financial decisions in the opening her very own florist boutique.

All of the paperwork involved is tremendous so she is happy doing the majority of their business online and has even started up her business checking account and is talking about retirement plans already with her personal “Relationship Manager” from Northern Trust.

It is good to see her so excited and up beat about the whole thing and is keeping a sense of humor and I hope that it all works out well for her. It will be great to be related to a florist.

Niece Is Doing Great In Texas

Uplogix is headquartered in Austin, TX and my niece has just landed a position as an office secretary with the option of being promoted if interested and qualified in a short time frame, it is a growing company and urges their employee’s to grow with them. Since she has moved from home a few years ago and ended up in the great state of Texas, she seems to be flourishing, I hear nothing but good positive things about this young lady that I miss terribly since she has moved so far away. She and I were very close during her childhood, I am her favorite aunt and I adore her as if she was my own.

She always did great in school, almost a straight A student and very knowledgeable about computers and various other technical stuff that I have absolutely no knowledge of what so ever. I always knew that she would be an independent women who would go far and make a difference in this wacky world.

So now it seems that she is working at a company that deals with Solaris security and she proudly sent me the link to their websire  where I have learned that they are revolutionizing remote management they work by combining the localized control and survivable connectivity of a console server with the intelligence of an enterprise software solution, which in turn delivers you secure management.

Boy do I feel under qualified when I was cruising through their very technical site, I’m sure my niece will fit in perfectly there and they are very fortunate to have her, she is eager to learn and eager to live, I hope that they treat each other well and with respect due.

Awesome gift giving idea – Hot Air Balloon Rides

I have always had an interest in Hot Air Balloons, I have several hot air balloon figures and paintings around the house. Hubby and I just missed an opportunity to purchase a genuine one for a very low price years ago and have kicked ourselves in the rear several times since than. Hot Air Balloon Rides are not as rare as they were back then either, now a days there seem to be Hot Air Balloon festival and events in almost every state somewhere.

During the summer and autumn months is when you get expect to see the majority of balloons in the air and I love it when at certain  times we can even see one or two when we are out and enjoying the backyard.

There is a website that my parents sent me called www.xperiencedays.com and they have listings and listings of adventures for sale. Interesting and fun ideas for you to experience ranging from cruises, horseback riding, air combat, drag racing, hang gliding and tons more of the coolest ways to have fun or relax. Every package is designed for the first timer which is a major plus! My parents are thinking of giving us a gift certificate that can be used to attend my dream of taking a ride in a hot air balloon at a place that is locating very near to were they have moved to in Florida, since retirement. I’ve got to tell mom that this is a great idea and I love the website that she sent me and will share it with many others I’m sure.

I am definitely going to bookmark this site for further investigation and use.

Real Estate App

This goconnect real estate app would have been a welcomed checklist tool back in the day when I was in the real estate business. I saw what was going on with our economy and ducked out while the pickens were good. That seems like a life time ago, but it really was only since 2007 when I stopped working full time and decided to stay home with the kids. Hopefully when the kids are both out of school and out of the house, the economy will have lifted up and read estate agents can get back to work and make a good honest living.

With all of the technology that still coming out there will be a lot more great tools that I can take advantage of when the time comes. I’m sure a lot of things will be different, but I think it will all come back to me, much like riding a bike!

An Email Hint From My Mother

My mother has been trying to talk Hubby and I into starting our own business for a few years now. She insists that we will get nowhere if we are working our butts off to line someone else’s pocket in the interim.

She sent me an email with some pretty interesting franchise information from a website called www.redhotfranchises.com, I must say they have a huge selection of business opportunities listed for review. Every kind of franchise you could imagine.

I did look it over and there are many that I find appealing but honestly I don’t think Hubby and I have the energy needed to start up something at this time. We still have our hand’s full with the kids and all of their needs seem to take up the majority of our time right now. But who is to say what the future has in mind for us, maybe one day we will take mom’s advice, but not this day. Right now my main concern is getting through the holidays and the start of a brand new year.

My Brother and His Brood

My eldest brother who lives in the beautiful up state New York along with his second wife and their large brood of children, 5 all together, you know the typical, his, mine and ours kind of family. Hard times seem to be hitting all kinds of people all over, I had the impression that things were going fairly well with them until my mother filled me in otherwise.

He had sent her an email letting her and Dad know that they were going to file bankruptcy and have hired a well known New York bankruptcy lawyer services firm that came highly recommended by his manager at the company where he and his wife both work.

I hope big brother and his family will get through this all right, I worry about him sometimes, but that is what sisters do, at least ours do.

The Task Of Ordering Machine Handles Online

The days of running all over town, and sometimes needing to go to neighboring towns, to find items that are so easy to order Online such as the machine handles that Hubby is needing. It is worth waiting a few days for the items to arrive at our door and ready to go.  It took all of 7 minutes to find the perfect handles and they should be here in time for him to get what he needs to do with them.

Now I can move on to other tasks that need to be tackled. My “To Do List” is never ending and always changing. And to  think that the Christmas season is looming straight ahead at us. Actually I just looked up how long before Christmas comes and it tells me it is 77 more sleeps, which equals ten weeks. OMG, makes my head hurt just thinking about it.
