Shopping

This morning I made a quick trip to Kohls. They have been having such great sales on kids clothes lately. Because of the great sales Dru and I ran over to Mason City to buy Clara her Christmas Present. We got her a very cute outfits that she will look absolutely adorable in. The best part of all is I only spent $10 when the original price would have been $40. :)

Sadness At A Local Communtiy

This past week has been a very sad one for a local community. Last weekend they expectantly lost a 16 year old boy. He left home to walk to the grocery store to buy a loaf of bread for a sick neighbor. He did not return home, on the way he collapsed and died later that day. His family and friends are still waiting to hear the autopsy reports, but they are wondering if it wasn't his heart, even though he had no symptoms.

After his funeral later on in the week three of his classmates were involved in an auto accident due to the very high winds that our area has been experencing. They were pushed off the road, hit a tree, slid down the embankment, and landed in the river. One of the teenagers was able to escape, however, the other two boys were trapped in the car. I read in the paper this morning one of those boys has now passed away also. How sad. The paper has not released how the other boy is doing. I can only hope that he will be okay amist all this tragedy.

Fall Cleaning

It's that time of year again, it's the time to start doing some in depth fall cleaning. Getting rid of all the dust bunnies that have accumulated under furniture, the spider webs that just seem to appear out of no where, and just organizing all the winter clothing. I cannot believe what a job it can be and I sometimes wonder how things can get so dirty. At least when the cleaning is done I feel good about how the house looks, I just hope the kids will let me have it picked up, if even for a weekend.

Gold Coins

Right now is a great time to invest in precious metals. One place to visit when the time comes to invest is the United States Gold Bureau. Their dedicated and professional staff is always available to help with any precious metal investment needs. They offer a convenient market with competitive prices. When the decision has been made to purchase precious metals, such as silver ingots or possibly a gold coin or gold bullion, the United States Gold Bureau is the perfect place to start. They will arrange for your purchase to be sent for immediate personal delivery or arrange for it to be deposited in a safe storage at an independent bank.

Friends And Family 20% Off Coupon

While shopping last night a random customer overheard my husband and I discussing which type of bunk bed to purchase for our daughters. Realizing the cost of the bunk beds she was kind enough to offer us a coupon for 20% off of our purchasing in the specific store we were at. We very much appreciated the offer and gladly accepted her offer. How very nice and considerate of her to help us out with that coupon which really did save us a lot of money. I wish everyone could be that giving.

Bunk Beds

My husband John and I decided it's time to purchase a bunk bed for our girls. We have four children, with only four bedrooms in our home, so it's only obvious that someone is going to have to share a bedroom. That leaves Becca our 10 year old and Dru our 2 year old (we are tired of sharing our bed with Dru). Dru is very hard to sleep with because she is so very active and it's time she has her own bed. It will be nice to have bunk beds in their bedroom as it is such a small bedroom anyway. Dru seems to be very excited about having her "own bed", so lets get this thing purchased and put together so we can all get some much needed rest.

Pest Control

Being a mother of 4 children, I like knowing that my home is free from all the nasty pests that like to invade houses. Making sure my home is free from termites, fleas, bees, or other types of pests puts my mind at ease. Knowing a professional pest control company who's employees have over 50 years combined experience is a good place to starting looking for pest control services. Bulls Eye Pest Control, is a Houston pest control company, who uses cutting edge technology with friendly and fast services to help with pest control needs. This company has been around since the beginning of the century, offering a staff that are all licensed and insured.

Rain And More Rain

I think our beautiful fall weather we have been experiencing has finally left us and we are officially into the icky fall weather we are usually accustom to. Our Indian summer is gone. It started raining last night and has not yet stopped. The weather forecast looks like our warm temperatures are going to drop now also, I hope this doesn't mean ice. We are also suppose to experience 50 mile per hour winds today, which means cold, cold, cold, and winter is definitely on the way.

Electric Skillet

I have been wanting an electric skillet for a longtime now. With a family of six it seems like I never have a big enough frying service to make more than two grilled cheese sandwiches or more than two pancakes. This weekend while shopping I found a great sale on an electric skillet big enough to make at least 6 pancakes or grilled cheese sandwiches at a time. I was so excited to finally purchase one and start cooking with it. I plan to use it for way more things than just grilled cheese and pancakes though.

Regency Beauty Institute

Once a person has decided on a career, the next step is always to decide what is the best way to achieve ones career goal. To me the most common sense thing would be to attend the best school for your chosen career goal. For instance, if cosmetology is the course your life is leading you towards, then Regency Beauty Institute could be the best choice of schools. Regency was established more that 50 years ago in Minneapolis, MN. Since 2002 alone they have grown into more than 80 campuses in 19 states. One campus to consider visiting would be their cosmetology school in Phoenix.

Supper?

Does anyone ever have those kind of nights when making supper is the last thing you want to do. Tonight is one of those nights for me. Not only do I have too many things going on to want to stop and make it, I don't even know what to make and nothing even sounds good. I am thinking that tonight should be an easy supper like cereal and toast. That actually does sound good to me.

Last Football Game Of The Season

Last night was Cole's last football game of the season. They finished with a winning record, they did very well. Cole should be very proud of himself as he played really great this season. Last night he had such a good hit on his guy that I thought he was going to carry him across the field and down to the goal line. It's really too bad that the varsity squad didn't have as good of a season, however the JV squad will be varsity next year and will hopefull dominate. :)

Bullion Investment

Right now is the perfect time to invest in precious metals. Whether you are thinking of investing in gold bullion or silver bullion the time is now. One place to go when it's your time to invest is United States Gold Bureau. They have a dedicated and professional staff who is waiting to help. Not only do they offer a convenient market, but also competitive prices. They can ship your investment to a depository of your choice or they can arrange for personal delivery. Right now silver is in such demand that the annual production can not keep up. Because of this demand for silver represents a great investment opportunity.

Changing Colors

Autumn has arrived and the color of fall has arrived. My favorite thing about this time of year is all the beautiful colors. It just amazes me how the leaves change and we get to enjoy all the different colors of orange, yellows, and browns. It is fun to drive around and see all the scenery the trees have to offer. It is especially neat to drive along the river and bluffs, the kaleidoscope of colors are fantastic.
