It seems to me that when my mother would go grocery shopping back in the day, she would stop at the butcher counter and ask for a pound of ground chuck. She sometimes asked for ground round, although I admit I do not know the difference between chuck and round. But it was important to her. I’m just happy to find ground beef, whatever the original cut, at a fair price. It has gotten so expensive lately that I am not buying much of it.
No Time for Lunch
My friend, Alicia has been asking me to meet her for lunch for several weeks. I cannot believe how crazy busy I have been and have not yet been able to meet her for lunch. We used to have lunch at least once a month, sometimes more often. But this time of year seems to suck the life out of me. I miss my friend and am going to try to meet up wither this week. Surely we can grab a fast lunch near her office and enjoy at least an hour chatting and catching up.
Happy Birthday, Raymond
A good friend from many years ago is celebrating a big birthday today. Raymond, I think of you often and wish you lived closer so we could get together for fun times like we did back in the day.
Happy, Birthday, Little Buddy. (hehehe)
Merry Christmas, Friends!
You Can’t Choose Your Family
You know how I love to shop
Shopping online has become one of my new hobbies. I didn’t realize how much money I could save by shopping online. Stop and think about it, you save on time, you save gas and you don’t have to deal with all of the crowds. One thing I love is finding discount coupons. Did you know that you can get Hotels.com discount coupons? Well you can.
Another thing I didn’t expect to find discount coupons on was Best Buy discount coupons but there they were, big as day. It you add in the discounts, the gas and everything else you save, you can afford to go somewhere like to visit your sister.
Now why can’t I find one like this?
This is the kind of man I have looked for my whole life and they just aren’t around. Do you have any idea where I can find one? If you do, let me know, okay? It would be nice if he looked a little better than this guy.
My niece and skis!!!
My sisters only daughter is an absolute ski nut. I don’t mean water skiing either. She loves snow skiing, snow boarding and anything that has to do with sliding around in the snow. She’s always looking for ski deals. Me personally, I don’t care for snow at all. But this is one part of skiing that has totally surprised me. She won’t go out skiing unless she has the latest fashions for skiing or snow boarding for the new season.
See all of this time I thought the main thing was not to break your leg or neck and stay warm. Well not anymore it seems. You also have to be in the latest fashions for that year too. Personally I know absolutely nothing about what’s hot and what’s not in the latest and greatest ski apparel but I did learn a lot when I was searching for a graduation gift in the form of ski deals for her. It’s absolutely amazing what you can learn about on the Internet. Not to mention, who would have thought an old lady like me would be surfing the Internet for ski fashions for my niece either? I would have never dreamed a couple years ago but I think I’m as addicted to the Internet as she is to skiing.
These are so very awesome
Here I was one minute looking for baby shower invitations online and found myself totally engrossed in wedding invitations instead. I had no idea that anyone would or could print such amazing wedding invitations. Some of them were the cutest things I have ever seen and others were so very proper for the occasion.
One things for sure, IF and when there’s going to be a wedding around here, I already know where to look for invitations. Perfect invitations I should say. Oh and they have a lot more but those invitations were what really caught my eye and made me look more into the site. Bet you’ll love it too if you just check it out.
Man trouble
Okay, Okay, it all makes sense now… I never looked at it this way before but have you ever notice how it seems that all or at least most of a womens problems start with MEN?
Woman has Man in it; Mrs. has Mr. in it;
Female has Male in it; She has He in it;
Madam has Adam in it;
MENtal illness MENstrual cramps
MENtal breakdown MENopause
