Ceiling fans now!

Boy is Mom going all out or what?  Now she’s wanting to get new ceiling fans for the whole house.  It’s not like she doesn’t have ceiling fans in every room but since she’s redecorating, she needs to change the ceiling fans to match her new decor she says.  Some of the fans are pretty new too but she wants new ones so she’ll get new ones.

She has Hunter fans now and they’re really good fans.  I love them personally but she wants a change.  She said she just needed a change and was looking at the Casablanca ceiling fans and fell in love with them.  Casablanca has always been a favorite movie of hers in the first place and that’s the style she wants.  I fully expected for her to want something custom.  That’s the good thing about this online store, they’ll even make a custom ceiling fan to meet you specifications with all the bells and whistles you could want with it.  I wonder if I could get her to give me the fans she takes down?

I really need to learn to relax

I was sitting on the couch watching TV last night when I suddenly realized that I was sitting there with just about every muscle as tight as can be.  I wasn’t watching anything that would make me tense up like a scary movie or anything like that so I don’t have any idea at all why I was doing that.  I made myself relax and within a half hour, I realized I was back as tight as before.  What’s up with that?  I can’t figure it out.

You know I was telling you about a site where you could learn different Martial Arts online, well I really think I’m going to try the Tai Chi to see if I can stop this.  It’s not healthy to be sitting there all knotted up when you’re supposed to be relaxing, you know.  Now I just have to find the time.  You know, I bet I need to do that in the evenings before I go to bed.  It just might help me to rest better at night.

I need some new glasses

Yes I wear eyeglasses because I hate contacts.  They really bother my eyes so it’s glasses for me.  The best part of wearing prescription eyeglasses is you can now have more than one pair to go with your mood or your wardrobe.  You know how women are, they are never happy with just one of anything.  Did you know that you can find eyeglasses online at really great prices? Well you can and one of my favorite places to find them is ausspecs.   Eye Glasses should be more than just something to help you see better, they should show your style or personality too.

My father always called them Spectacles and I love it when he called them that.  I still smile when I see or hear that word because he was the only person I knew personally that called glasses spectacles.  Anyway, I just get a written prescription when I go to the eye doctor and then go to my favorite web site and I can get 2 pair of eyeglasses for $99.  They have beautiful stylish frames  and you can even get anti-reflective coating for free on them.  I also got tinted sunglasses.  That’s not all you can get either.  They deliver within a week and I won’t buy my glasses from my eye doctor anymore because he can’t match the prices at all.

My father taught me to protect myself

One thing I can say about our father is he made sure to teach each of us girls how to protect ourselves.  He was in the military and was taught some martial arts in there and in turn, taught us how to get away if someone was to grab us and other things like that.  I always wanted to take Karate lessons and found karate pictures online one day.  That rekindled my interest but you know how it is, you work all day, come home and fix something to eat and the last thing you want to do is go back out.

Luckily I bookmarked the site and went back to it a little later.  I found that the site is named  Martial Arts Tutor and you can actually learn Karate moves, Judo, Tai Chi, and all sorts of various Martial Arts.  There are a lot of Martial Arts articles, pictures, and even movies they’ll tell you about to help you learn.  I can learn any form of Martial Arts right in my home so that way, I have no excuse what-so-ever not to do a lesson.  In fact, I can view the same kick or whatever over and over until I get it right without feeling embarrassed that I didn’t get it as fast as someone else might have.  This is great!!!

My cousin is getting married, finally!!!

She and her guy have been engaged for about 5 years now I think it is and they finally decided to go ahead and get married. Everyone keeps saying “It’s about time!!” She has a beautiful engagement ring but he didn’t purchase wedding rings when he got it so now they have to find a set of wedding bands they like. She was telling me about an online store they were looking at where they could get the rings they pick out the very next day, has a great selection of over 200 wedding bands and great service too. She showed me the ones she thinks they’re getting and they were absolutely beautiful!!!

Darn it I hurt myself!!

Some of my friends and I decided to go play tennis this past weekend since it was perfect weather on Saturday.  It wasn’t too hot or too cool so we hit the courts.  As luck would have it, I think I got a shin splint. Now I don’t know much about shin splints so my friend recommended I check this web site. It’s full of all kinds of wonderful information on what a shin splint is and how to make it better. In fact, it has a list from a-z of injuries. It will explain what the injury really is and how to make it better so you can’t ask for more than that.  It just might save you a doctor bill you know, and I like the sounds of that.

A web host can make or break your site

I have found out the hard way that the web host you choose can make or break your web site.  Even it’s just a blog site, you want people to be able to access it at any time so your choice of web host is very important.  The way I chose my web host was by researching web hosting online.  They do all of the research for you.  They will tell you which ones are the best for blogs, ecommerce sites or whatever you are looking for.  They even will break them down by which is the best web host for your money so you can’t go wrong that way.

It’s that time of year again

It’s spring and you know what that means.  It’s time to start thinking about a new bathing suit.  I honestly hate looking for a new bathing suit.  There are so many that I just wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing and then there’s always the problem of finding one that actually fits.  It’s not one of my favorite pastimes until I came across these bathing suits. I was really surprised at the prices I found on this site but even more than that, I actually found one I like.

See I go to the beach with my mother and sisters a lot and also spend time on the local lake with my friends so I need a bathing suit that my mother will not be ashamed to be seen with me in and still looks good on me too.  What I like about this bathing suit is how easily I could just slip some cut off jeans on and look fine to go anywhere for a burger or what ever after leaving the lake.  I love white bathing suits too because I don’t get real dark like some people do and a white suit makes me look darker than I am.  Plus it’s got the cutest skirt on it.  I just think it’s adorable.  What do you think?

Mom’s going all out on redecorating

My mother is amazing me with the things she’s doing with her home.  The part that’s really amazing me is most of the things she’s getting, she found online.  She’s becoming quite the Internet shopper.  She has found some of the best deals on home furnishings and home decor.   I had no idea she was becoming so proficient on finding so many good deals online.

She got new linens and bedding for her bedroom.   The new comforter she got is beautiful.  It really set the room off if you know what I mean.  She even found the therapeutic pillows like she likes and has to sleep with.  She keeps a set of bed pillows with the shams on them that matches her comforter that she puts on top of her pillows and it looks great.

She found the prettiest new lamps for the living room too.  They really changed the look of the whole room.  Mom is great with home accessories.   I wish I could look at something online like she can and find just the right place for them.  I do good to find the right desk lamp.  Maybe there’s still a lot to learn from Mom!!

Stocks might be scary right now

With all of the mess dealing with the stock market and the banks not doing so well either, online trading might be the last thing you would want to consider.  Well it’s never too late to get started saving for retirement either and I’m sure a lot of people have lost a lot of their retirement they thought was secure.  I have heard a lot of economist say that now is the time to buy stocks.  Maybe you should check into online trading.

I’ve been checking into an online broker and have learned a lot about stocks from them.  I honestly wish I knew and understood more but these guys are working real hard to help me understand all of this.  Stock trading was always my fathers thing and when I had questions, he would explain it to me.  Since he’s gone now, I have to trust someone else and I think I have found them.  Maybe they have something to offer you too.  It’s worth a shot to at least check it out.
