i love my fruit machines

06 September 2008

Fruit machines are the best thing in the whole world. I spend all day at work thinking about them and how I’d love to be playing on them all the time. Who doesn’t love fruit machines? My favourite ones are the ones with all the bright colours, flashing away and making you feel all dazzly and glamorous. Some fruit machines are downright ugly, though, I think and they shouldn’t even be allowed to get out into the open market. Never mind - at least there’s a huge choice to choose from and you can find one to suit your mood.

It’s about to be a girl-fight!

06 September 2008

I have no idea what is up with girls these days. It feels like I’m in some huge competition to get the last breathing guy. Most girls are really snotty when we go out. I can’t begin to count the number of snarly looks that I’ve gotten while hanging out with my friends. I just want to drill into their heads that I’m just out with my friends and not trying to push up on their boyfriend. Or maybe they are just trying to get an ex back so they want to pick a fight. Who knows? I’m just tired of it all!

Our Nutty Boss

04 September 2008

Our boss is a bit crazy. She is so random, coming up with large projects out of the blue and changing things constantly. Sometimes she sends out memos for theme days. Last week was Hawaiian Day and we all got to wear Hawaiian shirts and drink cocktails with tiny umbrellas in them at our desks. This week we have Olympics Day and we all have to come dressed and looking like our favorite Olympian. On occasion, she will go on a redecoration kick and change all of the office furniture around while we’re gone for the night. Sometimes, it’s really hard to find my desk in the mornings! This year for Christmas, we couldn’t figure out what to get for her. Traditional gifts just didn’t seem to work. Finally, we figured it out. On Christmas Eve, we presented her with multiple nut gifts… literally. From almonds to pistachios, she got them all. Then we presented her with a large card that simply read, “You’re nuts! But we love you.” She said it was the best Christmas present she’d ever had.

piano playing videos

03 September 2008

What kind of learner are you?  I’m a visual learner.  If I need to learn how to do something, then it always helps if I can see it done first.  That’s why I like all the learn to play the piano videos found in Rocket Piano.  There are 57 video lessons that will teach you how to play, and for me that’s huge.  Once I see somebody do something, it suddenly makes sense to me.  If you just explain it to me, I sometimes struggle to picture what exactly I’m supposed to be doing.   I’m also a big fan of the two games you get to play when learning how to play the piano called Jayde Musica Pro and Chordinator. 

Natural Disasters can’t destroy Mueller Steel Buildings

02 September 2008

This Global Warming issue is effecting weather more than ever. The tornadoes, hurricanes, and natural disasters are at an all time high. They are less predictable, more damaging and in areas they have never been before. Cities and towns are not prepared for this type of change. The cities that are used to this type of mother nature activity use steel providers like Mueller Steel buildings that construct buildings that will last through just about anything. Any damage is minimal and easy to repair. They are almost indestructible. These buildings are going to be needed in cities that never thought they would see natural disaster. We must prepare.

The cologn and perfume markets

01 September 2008

Not many markets have become as popular or as mainstream as the perfume or cologne markets. Just about everyone either uses or has at least heard of Christian Dior perfume for example. The thing about this is although many don’t choose to wear his perfumes they have often heard about them due to the many articles in newspapers with the sample smell tab that usually colors the magazine to a specific scent, or they’ve seen the commercials that are everywhere including in time square in new York city and on busses everywhere all over the country. Perfume is just a fascinating thing.

Harding Hotel Dublin

29 August 2008

My husband and I are planning to travel to Dublin, and we are looking for a hotel in to stay at. We aren’t really familiar with Dublin hotels, so we could use some advice. We want somewhere to stay that is near the city center and not too expensive. A friend stayed at the Harding Hotel Dublin last year and said that it was okay, so unless we can find something we think will be better we will probably stay there as well. Does anyone have any recommendations for good Dublin hotels near that city center? We want to be able to walk to at least some of the tourist attractions.

New Technology Introduces Personalized Children’s Books

26 August 2008

Today I’m going to talk a little about gifts.  Am I the gift expert? No.  But I know what I see, and that is that children love personalized children’s books.  Personalized Children’s books are the new craze in the children’s gift instrustry.  Due to advances in technology the cost of "on demenad" printing has gotton very inexpensive.  There are also software programs that allow for many types of printing automation that was never possible in the past.  So if you are looking for something a little different for your child this year, try checking out personalized children’s books.

getting older

24 August 2008

Dating when you are getting older and the biological clock starts ticking can be hard. I have a friend who starts dating guys, and immediately gives them the 411 on she is not here to play games. I know she is trying to protect herself from getting hurt, but I want to tell her to chill out and enjoy just meeting new people. She broke up with this guy, but then texted him constantly. I am like, you can’t expect to get your ex back on a text message. You can’t tell him one thing, and then give him a completely different signal. That is confusing.

Online e cards sensual

22 August 2008

If you want to send someone a romantic card, try looking on the Internet for e cards sensual. There are tons of cards to choose from so it won’t be hard to find some that you like. The hardest part will probably be narrowing the field to just one! Well, guess what? You don’t have to send just one, make it a habit, and a good one at that. Your loved one will really appreciate it and it’ll make you feel good too. Just get in the habit of sending one every once in a while to keep letting her or him know you care.

Generator

20 August 2008

Living in the country we are very vulnerable to power outages. Most of the lines are on poles and when the winter storms set in, they often take down trees which fall on the electrical lines. We do not loose power that much but when we do it can be down for up to a week at a time. Our neighbor has installed a generator for his home but I worry about the exhaust fumes for ours. After reading Earth 4 Energy I am convinced that I can provide power for our home much cheaper than he can with a gas generator.

Kids Gift

20 August 2008

I do not think it is ever to early to start planning for Christmas especially when you have little ones in the house. This year I am thinking that I would like to get the family a set of matching motorcycle jackets. Although my girls are still way too young to be able to ride with Daddy, I think that all of them would like being able to look alike. My girls are always hounding us to get leather pants, but I think we will start with the jackets and I am sure they will get a lot of use out of them.

Australian Shepherd Breeders

18 August 2008

If you are interested in finding  Australian Shepherd breeders       you may have some luck if you look online.  There are quite a few that you can choose from and you may find one in your area as well.  You should try and find one that is less aggressive if possible because they will make the best pets.  They were originally meant to work with cattle and that only.  But if you can find a more submissive one, thy can be a pet.

Got glue?

16 August 2008

One thing you will always need when making something that requires several parts is a bonding agent to hold the parts together. Unless you have interlocking parts you will need tape or glue or even super glue to make sure your creation doesn’t fall apart. I am talking of course about things you make yourself like crafts. Things like buildings of course need nails which help interlock the pieces of wood. Glue can also be used in wall paper to keep it on the wall. The interesting thing about glue is where it comes from. Some glues are made from hoof!
