Life Cereal

Tina | August 30, 2010

I am not much on eating cereal for breakfast. But I do like it as a snack once in a while. Can’t deal with super sweet ones that seem to be so abundant on the shelves these days.  Shredded Wheat is good and I like Life as well. Both can have strawberries, black berries, blue [...]

Free HD for life

Tina | August 18, 2010

Sandy told me that she has decided to order the local tv satellite services that she found on the www.localtv-satellite.com website.  She said that she was getting the basic package from localtv-satellite.com that only costs $29.99 for the first year, and that she gets free HD for life just by signing up. I think that is a pretty [...]

Free Donuts

Tina | August 11, 2010

I like that when I get my hot mocha at Sheetz it comes with a coupon for a free donut. Sheetz is a gas/convenience store that I buy my gas and smokes at. They have the cheapest prices of anyone, most of the time. Their mocha’s aren’t as good as Starbucks, but they are cheaper [...]

New Furniture

Tina | August 3, 2010

One day I’ll be able to live in the kind of home with the furnishings of my dreams. I really didn’t think that it would take as long as it has to just get to where I currently am around the place. I’m grateful that my parents allowed me to take as much as I [...]

Serendipity find

Tina | July 26, 2010

I was looking for a particular funny video I had seen a few days ago to share with my son, and found a series of videos made about putting thngs in blenders. This guy is nuts! This is a video of him blending an I-phone! I don’t think I’d be inclined to invite this guy [...]

What is it about men that they get so excited about cars?

Tina | July 25, 2010

Have you ever noticed at the parties that you go to that the men gather at one end of the party area and the women gather on the other?  What is up with that? One of the things that I try to do at a casual party is to integrate the men and the women, [...]

Recent break-ins in the area

Tina | July 25, 2010

One of the things that I find most telling about the economy is how many homes have signposts in their yards that advertise that they use some kind of home security system to deter burglars.  As more and more people are losing their jobs and falling off of the unemployment benefits roster, more and more people [...]

Please Recycle

Tina | July 24, 2010

I can’t believe that I let such a pile build up in my bedroom of junk, like old newspapers, magazines, the local yellowpages, old expired coupons and the like. I’m glad though that I do recycle and that all of these are paper products that can be recycled when I go into the part of [...]

This is for the birds

Tina | July 9, 2010

My hubby and I have always enjoyed watching the birds in our backyard.  I can remember one year we video taped an owl that was perched on our bird feeder – he was there for a good ten minutes or more, hunting mice.  We especially get excited when we see a bluebird; we don’t see them very [...]

Scrubs seem to be mainstream fashion

Tina | July 7, 2010

I’ve noticed when I go out to town that there are a lot of people doing their errands while wearing scrubs of some kind.  I often wonder why these people are out in public wearing them.  I thought that medical scrubs and nursing scrubs were clothing items that were supposed to be worn in a hospital or doctor’s [...]

Water Issues

Tina | July 6, 2010

It is good to see that rain barrels are coming back in style. These rain water barrels help in so many ways and with so much emphasise on going and becoming as “Green” as possible, rain harvestings is a wonderful concept. We are now hearing that we are entering a drought and the restrictions are [...]

Pretty presents

Tina | June 30, 2010

I was thinking about buying some Subway tiles and painting some pretty flowers on them and use them as Christmas presents this year. A few years ago my mother-in-law decided to buy some new tiles from a local home improvement store to use as a back-splash all around her kitchen. She asked me to paint strawberries [...]

Compression hosiery

Tina | June 29, 2010

I’ve had bad vericose veins since I was in my teens, back in the 70′s. Would you believe that I had the veins stripped from my left leg when I was only 17? I regret having that done at such an early age. I should have waited until after I had finished my childbearing years. [...]

One Desperate Mop

Tina | June 28, 2010

This was written by guest blogger Molly Naylor Swiffer Wet Jet has a really cute and fun commercial that I love to see each and every time it comes on the television. For some reason I seem to see the commercial more often when I am at home on our Best Choice TV, but wherever [...]

I’d like a new computer

Tina | June 15, 2010

My brother keeps pressuring me to buy a new computer every two years. He’s really involved in computers, he makes his living as the IT technician. He is self-employed and has several clients that keep him busy. He enjoys helping them to buy Custom Computers and setting them up. I have to admire how well [...]

Cabinet Refacing Really Works!

Tina | June 15, 2010

This guest blog compliments of Hugh Vallecillo. If you have been thinking about remodeling your kitchen, but are worried about the cost than you should consider getting your cabinets refaced. When my wife and I were completing a kitchen remodel recently we knew that the ceramic flooring was going to run over budget and there [...]

Resizing rings

Tina | June 15, 2010

Today I finally came to grips with the realization that I will never ever be as slim as I was twenty years ago.  I have a lot of beautiful rings that I loved to wear that I can no longer get on my fingers, and it bothers me that I can’t wear them anymore.  So [...]

Understaffed

Tina | May 21, 2010

Last night my hubby and I went to Home Depot to pick up a few things to put some shelves up in the garage. I find it frustrating to shop at Home Depot a lot of times. I find it difficult to get the floor associates to help me find things. But on the other [...]

How much do you really care?

Tina | May 21, 2010

One of the things that I’ve learned over the years is that a family death can be more than heart breaking. It can also be a financial disaster. I think that too many people don’t bother buying Life Insurance because they are selfish. Many feel that once they are dead, that they have nothing to [...]

Napkins – the musical

Tina | May 21, 2010

Can you imagine going to a mall, and getting hungry, heading to the food court and grabbing a bite and all of a sudden a bunch of seemingly random people start singing and dancing? What a hoot! So funny – if I could participate in an Improv Everywhere stunt I would be so thrilled! I [...]
