Protecting Mother’s Wedding Dress

I’m thinking of digging out my mother’s wedding dress, that has been in a chest, at the foot of the bed, in one of the upstairs bedrooms and giving it to my sister to have and to hold. While I am in there I am going to look for platinum wedding rings that I was told were in there as well. We have already agreed that I will keep these rings, at least for now. They will be placed in mother’s jewelry box, along with a few other key pieces of jewelery that we want to keep in the family.

But before I do all of that I want to look at some different types of garment bags, so that I can give the dress to her fully protected, safe and secure.

I never knew that there was so many different types of these protective products to choose from but I think I found the perfect one, made specifically made for a wedding dress such as this one is and have ordered it this afternoon and am guaranteed same day shipping, so it should arrive promptly for me to turn over to her the next time she visits me and the farm.

Favorite News Program

In my opinion there is no news program better than the Today Show on NBC. The reason that the Today Show is my favorite news program is because it is one of the first news programs that I can remember ever watching. Jane Pauly and Bryant Gumbel have now given way to Matt Lauer and his cohorts. Another figure that I can remember very well from those old days was Gene Shalit and his movie reviews. As a matter of fact, Gene still makes an appearence on the current show every now and then.

Then there is none other than Willard Scott and his recognizing of people who have reached their 100th birthday. Still, the Today Show in my opinion delivers the morning news like none other and is the best among the major networks. There is nothing better than turning on my TV and watching the Today Show each and every morning. I found some really great satellite TV deals, so it’s nice to really use them! It has been a tradition that has gone on in my households for many years and will be for many years to come, regardless who the host of the show is.

Perfect Match Required

The larrivee guitar that I ordered should be arriving any day now. I swear I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas morning to hurry up and arrive. I haven’t purchased anything like this for myself in a very long time and it is exciting. I have Uncle Sam to thank for this much anticipated purchase.

While waiting for the delivery I have been looking at a sweet looking THD amp and have made arrangements to order it as soon as I have my new guitar in hand and can make sure that it is a perfect match.

Web Hosting Options

I have learned so much about computers and all that the Internet has to offer us all these past couple of years since taking over the house and the farm. I don’t know what I would have done without my handy dandy laptop, gone completely insane I would imagine. With not much extra time on my hands most days, my social life is a joke and I don’t get much company, besides family, so the computer has become my best friend and I have still so much to learn about my new best friend.

I have been looking into switching to a new web hosting provider. There are several out there that have been doing their part in the “green movement” that has become so popular with everyone these days and I would like to do what I can to help as well. So I found a good web hosting reviews and rating site that lists the top ten Green Web Hosting providers that has helped me sort them all out to find the right match for me and my needs and wants. GreenGeeks advertises that it is 300% Green Hosting, that is a pretty high percentage, wouldn’t you say.

I’ll take my time and see what I can figure out the next couple of days.
