A New Way To Do Shopping Research

2012-01-16T15:49:00.000-08:00

Being self-employed and working out of the home has exposed both strengths and weaknesses of mine that have proven a benefit in the long run. It’s one thing to have the talent to attack a specific market, provide a particular service, or invent/create a needed product, but it’s the “other” needed talents, which I don’t possess adequately, that have been the biggest headache for me.

An example would be organization. I started off with an old work desk that provided plenty of work space, but was missing half its drawers. The work space was great in that it accommodated all my technology (PC, monitor, speakers, phone, printer, scanner, copier, wireless modem, etc.) and all my mess (notepads, scratch paper, files, bills, books, checking/savings statements, taxes, etc.), in that last case, too much paper mess to adequately describe.

What I needed was a new work desk, but not just any work desk but one that was designed simply. One that was efficient and practical. It’s not that I needed exceptional talent to organize, but an exceptional desk that allowed me to best utilize my minimal organizational talent at the maximum.

A little research produced the secretary desk with filing cabinet options found at Become.com. With so many choices and excellent product descriptions (compare 31 w/secretary desks), I was able to find the perfect desk/cabinet combination that fit my needs. Now a little less time worrying about my organizational skills translates into more time spent where my talent really does me some good. Sales!

Now on to the next dilemma in my life—you see, I need to find a shower cover plate for my master bathroom...

Remarried

2011-12-03T14:50:00.000-08:00

Guest written by our friend Mason Abbott:

I got remarried last month. My first marriage lasted 21 years and I have two beautiful kids to show for it, but I am sad to say that my first husband and I fell out of love. My new husband is so different than my first. My first husband and I practically went bankrupt due to his lack of money management. My new husband is very frugal and money conscious. He has already given me several Tips for saving on energy costs and wants to make sure we have the best rates on all of our utilities. I am all for saving money because I do not want to end up with our finances in such a terrible state as I did with my first husband. I just hope my new husband is not so frugal that he questions me about every penny I spend. When I got home from the grocery store last night he immediately asked me how much I spent at the store and wanted to see what I bought. I just want him to trust that I know how to spend and save money.

So Touching At This Time of Year

2011-11-27T20:56:00.000-08:00

When an old man died in the geriatric ward of a nursing home in GRASS VALLEY, CA. It was believed that he had nothing left of any value.

Later, when the nurses were going through his meager possessions, they found this poem. Its quality and content so impressed the staff that copies were made and distributed to every nurse in the hospital.

One nurse took her copy to Missouri.

The old man's sole bequest to posterity has since appeared in the Christmas edition of the News Magazine of the St. Louis Association for Mental Health. A slide presentation has also been made based on his simple, but eloquent, poem.

And this little old man, with nothing left to give to the world, is now the author of this 'anonymous' poem winging across the Internet.

Crabby Old Man...
What do you see nurses? . . ... . . What do you see?
What are you thinking . . . . . When you're looking at me?
A crabby old man . .. . . . Not very wise,
Uncertain of habit .... . . . . With faraway eyes?

Who dribbles his food . . . .. . And makes no reply.
When you say in a loud voice . . . . . 'I do wish you'd try!'
Who seems not to notice .. .. . .... . The things that you do.
And forever is losing . . . . . A sock or shoe?

Who, resisting or not . . . . . Lets you do as you will,
With bathing and feeding . .. . .. . The long day to fill?
Is that what you're thinking? . .... . . . Is that what you see?
Then open your eyes, nurse . . . .. . You're not looking at me.

I'll tell you who I am. . . . .... . As I sit here so still,
As I do at your bidding, . . . .. . As I eat at your will.
I'm a small child of Ten . .. . . .. With a father and mother,
Brothers and sisters . . .. ... .. Who love one another.

A young boy of Sixteen . . . .. With wings on his feet.
Dreaming that soon now . . . . ... A lover he'll meet.
A groom soon at Twenty . . . . .. My heart gives a leap.
Remembering, the vows . . . . . That I promised to keep.

At Twenty-Five, now . . . .... . I have young of my own.
Who need me to guide . . . . . And a secure happy home.
A man of Thirty . . . . . My young now grown fast,
Bound to each other .. . . . . With ties that should last.

At Forty, my young sons . . ... . . Have grown and are gone,
But my woman's beside me . . . . . To see I don't mourn.
At Fifty, once more, babies play 'round my knee,
Again, we know children .. . . . My loved one and me.

Dark days are upon me . . . . . My wife is now dead.
I look at the future . . . . . Shudder with dread.
For my young are all rearing . .... . . . Young of their own.
And I think of the years .. . . .. . And the love that I've known.

I'm now an old man . . . . ..... And nature is cruel.
Tis jest to make old age . . . . . Look like a fool.
The body, it crumbles . . . . . Grace and vigor, depart.
There is now a stone . . . . Where I once had a heart.

But inside this old carcass . . . . . A young guy still dwells,
And now and again . . . . . My battered heart swells.
I remember the joys . . . . . I remember the pain.
And I'm loving and living . . . ... . Life over again.

I think of the years, all too few . . . . ... Gone too fast.
And accept the stark fact . .. . . That nothing can last.
So open your eyes, people . . . ... . Open and see.
Not a crabby old man . ... . . Look closer . .. . See ME!!

Remember this poem when you next meet an older person who you might brush aside without looking at the young soul within.

We will all, one day, be there, too!

A Walk Down Memory Lane At Ugly Trailor Antiques {Giveaway}

2011-11-06T21:09:00.000-08:00

Sometimes the most interesting things are found in the most remote spots! Case in point, Ugly Trailor Antiques in Hurricane, UT! I've heard a lot about this little spot in the Southern Utah desert town and evidently it is quite the tourist attraction, let alone place to get great memorabilia from many different eras. Fred and Sue Thomas have put their talents together to create this unique little place that oozes hospitality, charm and fun! It is a very easy stop to make if you are on your way to or from Zion's, Bryce, or even Grand Canyon National Parks. Also, St. George, UT is about 20 miles from Hurricane.

It's rather hard to miss the company's trademark "ugly trailor", parked in the front of the store. The location itself has a lot of history behind it. It was the Hurricane Jail for 50 years, from 1920 to 1970 and the restroom is a converted jail cell along with an iron bar door.

The whole antique store boasts 22,000 square feet. Besides finding their own pieces, the owners also do consignment and as a result, have almost everything you can imagine. Plus, the prices are extremely reasonable!

"if you like to walk down memory
lane, this is the place to do it"

"It was so much fun! Like visiting
your grandparents home!"

The different rooms are themed and so, if you come knowing what you'd like to find, chances are you'll definitely find it! The holidays
are especially busy for Ugly Trailor Antiques because
many people want to find the perfect unique gift for
the discerning antiquer in their life. They have 30-day layaway to make it easy!

Fred and Sue Thomas, owners of Ugly Trailor Antiques would be pleased to give one lucky reader a $20 store credit for any item of their choosing! To enter, please complete the mandatory entry and any other extra entries you'd like to do, maximizing your chances of winning! Please comment on each entry you completed.

Curb Appeal

2011-09-26T19:06:00.000-07:00

This guest post from Edgardo Rosa

The other day I was watching Curb Appeal on HGTV and realized that there’s a guy on that show that I went to high school with. I had never watched that show before because we only recently got satellite TV by searching dish satellite georgia. I really enjoy watching that show because it shows ways to improve the outside of your home, giving it more curb appeal, hence the name of the show. It was crazy seeing my friend from high school giving home improvement advice, but he really knew what he was talking about. I have often thought that our house needs some improvement on the outside. We live in a really pretty neighborhood, and I would like to make our home one of the most attractive. We have a really large front yard and it has a lot of trees in it that block the view of our home. I liked this when we first moved here because it gives us so much privacy, but now that I have been watching Curb Appeal, I would like to cut the trees down and add some new flowers and plants to the yard.

I Love My Deck

2011-08-12T10:54:00.000-07:00

It has been so much fun eating dinner outside in the cool of the evenings on our deck this summer! I've got a love for comfortable outdoor furniture in the warm summer months, along with beautiful flowers! Great conversation and great food is what I can enjoy when I've got a deck with chairs and tables to do it. One of these days we'll invest in some patio furniture! Until then, we make due with camp chairs, etc.
Our deck has some beautiful hanging flower arrangements and a big standing flower pot. It was so neat because while I DID plant the hanging baskets this year, I didn't do anything with the big flower pot. I was surprised when a few sprouts came up after all of the rain we had this year. So I started watering them and now, the whole thing is full of beautiful petunias. I also love our little hummingbird feeder! We get our cute little "pets" zooming in to check out the nectar in the early evening hours before they go back to their little nests for the night.

I guess if I didn't have a deck I'd go to the park in the evenings and set up some chairs there and do a picnic or a barbeque there!
The only big problem this year is that we live near Utah Lake and closer yet to a standing duck pond. The mosquitoes have been horrible. They are worse this year than any previous year. So while we have had plenty of rain and snow this year, it has definitely caused the mosquitoes to come out in full force. But it's still very nice until the sun has gone down completely. One of these days we will move into another house and it had better have a nice deck so I can enjoy my days outside!!

Bound To Be Found At Budget Gadgets!

2011-07-22T13:59:00.000-07:00

I found a company the other day that has the greatest gadgets! Sometimes you can't find something that you need anywhere else but in a place that sells random items! I found a couple things that I really really like! But before I share what I got, I'd like to tell you a little bit about BudgetGadgets!
First of all, they have Free Shipping to anywhere in the world! That's always a nice feature, and they have great deals on ipod, iphone and ipad accessories! For that matter, anything having to do with electronics is bound to be found for super great deals at BudgetGadgets!

I thought they have really great novelty gifts for young kids and teens! And they have a fairly large selection of pocket watches

I ordered the hit the gopher keychain game! (It was only $2.85) I thought it might provide some entertainment to my squirrely students during down time. And I was right. They love to play with it. Yeah, and they're in high school. I like that you can turn the volume off if you want to, although I wish there was a built-in scoring system. I also got the animal pattern camera case (it was only $3.40) for my beloved camera. It's orange, which is great because I can easily find it in my bag or in the car!

Have you decided to go check out BudgetGadgets yet? I hope so, you'll love it and make sure to check them out on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube as well! ...'Cause a gal can never have too many gadgets in her life!

I was not paid for my review, but did receive the above products for the purpose of review!

The Help by Kathryn Stockett - Reviews, Discussion, Bookclubs, Lists

2011-07-19T21:13:00.001-07:00

Girls Like Us

2011-06-29T10:25:00.001-07:00

'Girls Like Us', specifically Carly Simon, Joni Mitchell, and Carole King--3 women who defined the 60's , peaked in the 70's and are still an influence even today. Because of these women and their lives, today's female artists are empowered and owe so much to these 3!
I loved the book and learned about their struggles and determination to be artists who were heard--above all else, it seems. I do have my favorite among the 3. After reading about Carole King, my respect and awe of her has emerged, grown and flourished. She was responsible for so many hits of the 60's and 70's. That's not to say I don't admire all of them--who will be your favorite?

There are a lot of Chili's Giveaways going on right now. It's the Shout Out To Eat Out Campaign and they are promoting their Triple Dipper Appetizer Plate! They end tomorrow! I've entered a few. Here is a list of the one's I've entered! I'm hoping to score a $20 Gift Card to put a dent in the bill when I take my husband and two sons out to eat to try these Triple Dipper plates. If I was to choose any 3 foods to put on my plate at one time, I think I would pick BBQ Spare Ribs, a baked sweet potato with butter, salt and sour cream, and a great salad with great dressing! Yum I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

Cold Mountain

2011-03-12T16:54:00.001-08:00

I just finished reading the book 'Cold Mountain' by Charles Frazier. It started out quite slow, but I like that because the characters were very well developed. He also has a beautiful descriptive way of writing. As the book went on, it tells a tale of two people separated by the Civil War, each going through their own changes as a result of this war.
