Woodwind and Brasswind Instruments

The bass clarinet stands that I have been eyeballing are now being offered at %15 with a promo code, that’s along with free shipping. I have been looking for a new stand for a few months now. I can’t wait until my tax refund check arrive later this month, so I’ve gotten to know my way around the various websites that have musical instruments for sale. So far WWBW (Woodwind & Brasswind) has the best selection, they have new and/or used items, and if I use the promo code I can get it at one heck of a good price.

Come on Uncle Sam!!!

My Sons Birthday is Coming Up!

My sons birthday is coming up soon and I’m trying to make it to where I can afford his birthday gifts and throw somewhat of a decent party for him this year. He seems to really enjoy his new PlayStation 3 we had gotten him this past Christmas and has had his eye on a few new games that have recently came out. So today I am going to try to shop for the coolest games I can come across that I think he will really enjoy playing over and over, instead of getting tired of them after one time of playing them and never touching them ever again.

I also would like to find a cake with his favorite cartoon character, Sponge Bob on it, and make arrangement’s for it to be ready the day before his party. I have already found invitations he loves with Power Rangers all over them, and have already sent them out to the parents of his friends. I’m hoping to get all RSVP’s in the next week so I can make plans on all activities for the children on the day of his party. I am really hoping that the day of his party, it will be a nice sunny day out so we have more options on the activities we are selecting.

We All Love Cupcakes!

I have found the perfect gift to give to my mother for Mother’s Day I usually just send her a nice vase of springtime flowers that she loves so much, but upon surfing the Web, I came across a site that has a really great product called Cup a Cake Cupcake Holders. These holders have in each container these plastic “prongs” that keep the cupcake from moving around thus keeping all of that delicious frosting from getting messed up, which never seems to fail from happening.

My mother is a very busy women that attends all kinds of Women’s Club activities that always need a dessert or side dish to be brought along, and mother has a great recipe for cup cakes that she uses a lot so I think that she will really enjoy this new product idea and will get much use out of it.  This cool website is definitely going to be bookmarked for future use, they have some very unusual and unique gifts that I would like to keep in mind for the Christmas holidays that will be here before you know it.

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. At Work Boots USA they proudly brand themselves on extremely fast shipping, low prices, and outstanding service. They are factory authorized dealers for all of the brands you see on their web site. You can most definitely tell that they take great joy in helping people get the work boots they want and need. Just take a look around and you’ll see what I’m talking about, you won’t be disappointed at all.

Mom Wants And Needs A New PC

One of my brothers is the computer whiz in our family, but since he has recently gotten himself married he isn’t as available as much as he used to be.  I have depended on him for 90% of my computer needs and Hubby for the other 10%.  I  mean I can switch ink cartridges and add paper, but that is about my limit, sad but true.

The time has now come that I need to be more independent when it comes to the computer, I spend so much time on one, it makes sense to learn more about it.  So the next computer that I get I am going to dive in and learn.  In fact I have found a web-site that specializes in PC that you can build yourself, the instructions are in English and offers plenty of illustrations to help, pictures are good!

I found an easy site to navigate thru and I’m thinking that maybe I will order one of their PC Kits that comes with everything needed to build your own PC with, except a screwdriver, I have plenty of those, just need to find the right one when it’s needed.

I’m getting excited about a new coming into the house, I wonder if I should call my brother and ask his opinion on the idea of me trying this out.  Boy I just can’t seem to do anything computer related with out bothering him with something, maybe he will be happy to see my trying and will feel sympathetic and will come assist me, just in case, Hubby can be really grumpy when I ask for his help.  He is so grumpy even the kids won’t ask for his assistance with their homework.

LA Police Gear

My best friend’s husband has just gotten the interesting job of becoming our fair city’s Swat team leader last month. When my husband and I last went over to their house to visit we were very impressed with all of the different gear and tools he had shown us. I asked him how much all of this equipment had cost him, and he replied back that we could look it up on the Internet and check out some other cool stuff, with awesome deals.

The certain kind of gear he had was Blackhawk Gear, that can be looked up at www.lapolicegear.com. They had so many cool things on there that I have never even seen before, it was quit interesting to see all the different things they had to offer.

Something Cool

Something is getting popular now a days with all kinds of folks are having business cards printed up so that you can distribute them to who ever you choose to give them to. And with an offer such as “Free Business Cards” you can bet that my oldest daughter is ready to order.

She found a website called unlimitedbusinesscards.com and they advertise unlimited supply of free business cards AND free shipping.  You have to register to get access to the site which takes a few minutes but so many sites require this that you can practically do it in your sleep!

It seems that they can afford to offer these free because advertisers pay them to have their ads on the back of the free business cards, what a cool idea. They are what I call “Killing 2 birds with one stone”. It is an interesting proposition that they offer: After you fill out the form, your business card will become a product that our advertisers can choose to advertise on. Once we get 3 advertisers to advertise on your business card we will email you a link that you can use to upload your artwork or design your business card online choosing from over 13,000 templates. And they want you to agree to distribute all of your cards in a years time – interesting.

I actually registered and put in an order for some cards for Hubby to use and we will see how it goes from there, after we check them out I will allow our daughter to order some, free is a good amount to pay – I’m sure you would agree.

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.
