Spring

I know that we still have some Winter weather left but I do look forward to Spring. I am not a fan of the cold and snow. I prefer being able to wear light weight clothing rather than the heavy coats and boots. I know many people love the cold but I am not one of them. If you are one that enjoys the cold, I am happy for you.

Chain Nose Pliers

Years ago when we first became grandparents, I found a neat item for the girls. A gal I work with creates and makes beaded bracelets. She has everything you would need, such as a chain nose pliers, beads, rings and clasps. She made the neatest bracelets for the girls and myself. Mine says Grammy on it. I just love it!

Water Leak

My husband just hates problems with the house or car. Well, today was not exception. He noticed this morning that there was a slight water leak under the kitchen sink. When he got home from work he found that it was just a water line that needed to be tightened. He had to dry out the area under the sink which wasn't too bad. I actually thought he might react worse than he did.

Famous Footwear Coupons

Anyone that knows me knows how I enjoy shopping. Lately I have been so busy that I haven't had a chance to go. I'm itching for some new boots and and would love to use the famous footwear coupons to save some money on my purchase. There are times I have had a $10 off coupon. That's pretty good!

THE BALLOT BOX

Guest post written by Joseph Finch

Thank goodness I have clear 4g wireless service because I have been really fired up lately and love to follow the presidential election. So far, it is just the republican primaries, but I can’t get enough of the news. This is really the first election that I have really educated myself on the candidates and their point of views. I think the reason that I have been able to really educate myself this year is because of all of the political blogs, newspaper, and candidate’s websites that I have been to access from the comfort of my couch. The Republican primaries are only about a week away. It has been a roller coaster ride with different taking first place and falling down the totem poll throughout the race. I haven’t decided who I am going to vote for in the primary yet. I am going to leave it up to the day before to decide. I have some favorites, but I am going to continue to follow the news on-line, right up until it is time for me to pull the lever at the ballot box.

New Computer

Our old desktop computer seems slower than ever and I am considering buying a new one. I really don't know when we bought the desktop but I imagine it has been at least five years. We did buy a laptop a year or so ago and it is much faster than the desktop. Well, I guess I have convinced myself to buy the new computer. Hope I find a good one.
