Researching Web Hosts

Hubby has been increasingly interested in getting up and creating his own web-site and has been doing a bunch of asking around folks and doing a good amount of researching on the Internet about which web hosting company to go with. Word of mouth is the best advertising, as always, but the Internet is a great way to go these days.

I’ve even started checking out a few things myself so that I will be able to talk with him about this issue and hopefully it will help me sound like I know what I am talking about and we can learn together, this will be an adventure, I’m sure.

Motorcycles & Spring Time

Hubby has been talking about buying a motorcycle for the past several years, the subject comes up right about this time of year, each and every year. With spring approaching in what will be in no time, the itch for going for a ride and enjoying life on the open road is so very tempting for the both of us.

I wouldn’t mind owning one one bit as long as it was a Harley Davidson and of course that is what is has in mind, not a new one mind you, but one that has low mileage and a low monthly payment would be nice. With the thought in mind that we should be getting a decent tax refund this year, we have been tossing around the idea of actually purchasing a Harley D.

Hubby has been surfing the net, looking to see what deals are out there and I have to tell you that there are some very tempting deals being offered. It seems that people are getting desperate for cash and motorcycles are being sold in an effort to pay the bills and the asking prices are very sweet indeed.

He has shown me a few of the ones that have caught his eye, there isn’t a shortage of bikes and bike parts for sale in this part of the state that we just may have to start checking out a bit more serious like in the near future.

How Romantic Is This

My husband had planned out the most romantic celebration for our 20th anniversary two days ago, and I will never forget it for as long as I live. He called me at work early in the day and had told me that he loved me and couldn’t wait to see me later that day and of course it made my heart melt.

When I had came home, I walked into the door and there laid a beautiful cocktail dress he had wrapped up in pretty paper and gorgeous bow ties. It had a note on it telling me to change into it and meet him at a beauty parlor. So I had gotten dressed and went on my way to the beauty parlor where three girls were waiting outside with a sign up with my first name on it. I had walked up to them telling them I was Darlene and they had said “Lets get to work!”

They took me inside to where it was set up for a complete make over, which I have always wanted and they got to work on me. I was so excited to have a make over done, I mean what women wouldn’t be? After 2 hours of primping, they had put me in front of a huge mirror to where I could see the results. I was so shocked on how much of a great job these girls have done, I gave them a big hug and had thanked them, and they had relayed me a message from my husband telling me to go outside where a limo was waiting for me to take me to him.

We pulled up to a extraordinary and beautiful hotel where another woman was outside waiting for me to take me to a room. Well the room as soon as I came in, I had noticed over hundreds of rose petals scattered through out the room along with dozens of white candles every where lit up. My husband was waiting at the bar with a bottle of champagne and strawberries, which are my favorite, and had serenaded me for the rest of the evening. It was like a dream, and I loved every moment of it.

The Doctor Says

Am glad that I went ahead and placed my order now for the most important person that I am going to be spending my Christmas with. He knows who he is. He is one of my biggest fans off and online. I owe him more than he will ever realize and I appreciate everything that he has ever done for me throughout all of the madness that life brings to a person and their family.

What’s Up With A Console Cable?

Hubby tells me that we need to order a console cable but he seems to enjoy keeping in the dark as to why we need it (could he be up to something, hmm, something to think about)

He asked me to go online, he gave me the website diablocable dot com to go to and has asked me to just order him one up. This is not an unusual request seeing as I am the only one with a charge/debit card which is needed to make purchases online, and he has no patience when it comes to ordering items on line, but he always lets me know the who, what and where of it all when I do it for him.

Only thing that I can come up with is maybe he is working up something special for my birthday, that is coming up very soon, next month if I remember correctly. I guess time will tell and for now I’ll play his little game.

New Sewing Experience

I had expressed an interest in sewing to my husband and had told him I wanted to get a sewing machine so I could learn some techniques in creating some beautiful home piece’s such as pillows, blankets, throws, curtains or even clothes I became a pro at it. So my wonderful hubby had brought home a sewing machine from Walmart and man I was so excited to get the actual opportunity to sew. I got straight into the car and went fabric shopping so I could come home and experiment with them, and I had found that it wasn’t as easy as I had thought it would be and being the perfectionist I seem to be I wanted all my work to be precise.

I went to an Arts & Crafts store nearby to purchase a book called “Sewing for Dummies.” Of course the first piece I tried to work on was the easiest, a simple bed pillow and it came out surprisingly nice. I kept on with sewing the simplest things until I felt I was ready for something a little more challenging. I had found a page where it teaches you how to make something called a quillow, it seemed to be trickier then anything I did before, but I gave it a shot. It took me quit a few times to put one together decently. I do believe I have found my new hobby that I enjoy so very much, and I’m hoping that if I become good enough with it, then I could start selling them for extra cash or even give them away for birthdays and Christmas’s to other family members. I am so excited to learn so many more new things and get to gain knowledge on this sewing machine.

Hubby Is Thinking Ahead

Hubby and his brothers are worried that their Dad won’t be around for too many more years and they all want to pitch in and get him a great gift for Father’s Day that is coming up in a few short weeks. I think it is a wonderful idea and I hope that their Dad appreciates their efforts. He has an older model BMW that is in wonderful condition even for its age, he keeps it very well kept like he does all of his vehicles, but this one is special to him and I know the boys are wondering what will happen to it when Dad does finally pass on one of these years.

Anyway one of the brothers found a website  that sells some wheels that the guys are drooling over and hoping that they can all pitch in to afford these awesome Sevas wheels that are a must when owning a higher end quality car such as his BMW.

Wheelfire, I like the name, is a company that offers discount wheels, rims and tires packages. Where you can find 17, 18, 20, 22 and 24 inch discount and custom wheel rim and tire packages for your car, truck or SUV. So if you find you have a need for any of these for your use, you should take the time and check this web-site out.

Good Old Fashioned Elbow Grease

Okay, I have to admit that when I was told to go to the website of www.theotherwoman.net/ I had no idea that it was about having someone come into the house and have it cleaned spic and span like. But alas that is what this site is all about. I think every working mother should be able to have someone come in and clean their house for them once in awhile. I have never really hated cleaning but I certainly don’t enjoy it unless I am very angry and feel the need to get my anger out with a good old fashioned scrubbing. Hubby always jokes with me that he needs to get me in “one of my moods” in order to get the house cleaned! One of these days he is going to joke about it and I won’t find it funny at all. The next thing he knows he will be on his needs cleaning and see how funny it really is.

Scrubbing Away The Anger

 

Lunch at Red Lobster!

Hubby has been promised that we would go out to lunch at Red Lobster for a weeks now and something seems to come up every day that it doesn’t work out.

My sister sent us gift certificates for Red Lobster as a Christmas gift, I can’t believe that I have been holding on to them for this long, waiting for a chance to use them.  We wanted to do lunch so that it would be just the two of us.  We take the kids everywhere all the time, so if we can steal away for a lunch, just us two, we take it and run with it.

Today was the day, it just worked out, it wasn’t planned.  The computer was acting funny so neither of us could go online, the weather was cooperating nicely, so we went and got back in time for the youngest to get home from school by the bus.

We both ordered nice entrees and enjoyed an appetizer of stuffed mushrooms, yummy.  We both really enjoy their muffins, so they came home with us, along with a few other left overs, but not that much was left on our plates to bring home.  We did order a take out order of the fondue bread with lobster sauce so that the whole family can enjoy it later.

I love Red Lobster, thanks Sis!

Hubby needed work boots, since he is now in Construction for this summer and I had found a website called workbootsusa.com. I had clicked on the work boot link and found a wide range variety of work boots that are made with complete care and the quality boots they have are amazing.
