Going through the jewelry box

I was going through my jewelry box the other day, and I was that I always used to like wearing watches better than my other jewelry, but since I have been married I have become so used to my rings. I guess this is because I don’t take them off. Necklaces, watches, and bracelets are removed daily, which often makes me forget to put them back on the next day. Maybe I should start asking for more rings to wear (I’ve had my eye on a couple of titanium rings anyways…though they are a bit on the expensive side) so I will actually wear them and they won’t sit in my jewelry box day after day…

Puppy’s growing up

Wow, Charmin is getting so big! He’s 6 1/2 months old now, and earlier, when he were playing/wrestling around with him, I realized just how heavy he’s getting. He weighs a little over 40 lbs now…won’t be long before I won’t be able to even pick him up. He’s still sleeping in his crate at night. Sometimes I’d like to let him out so he could just sleep on the floor, which would probably be softer (or maybe I should consider a baby bassinet…I kid! :P ) It will be a long time before he’s left out on his own…especially if we’d like to keep all of our furniture and things in one piece!

Why must I have a land line?!?!

I know I’ve said this before, but we need a new Internet company…We currently have ours through the phone company, but they still live in the dark ages when a telephone line was required to have Internet service. I’d soon just not have a landline since it rings ALL DAY LONG! We always let it go to the answering machine, and 90% of the time it’s an annoying telemarketer…We are thinking about trying a satellite internet provider, but nothing’s set in stone yet…

Selling Baby Clothes on Ebay

Kecia and I haven’t been out to the yard sales lately. We still have tons of stuff to sell on Ebay, but I am hoping to find some cute baby clothes that still have tags on them. Some new moms get so many outfits that the baby doesn’t get to wear them all before he/she outgrows them. Baby clothes sell on ebay very well…Guess lots of people purchase baby gifts from there!

Get everything from ebay!

I’ve been selling on Ebay for a while now, and I must admit…people will sell anything on there!! From corn flakes to golf equipment, you can find anything on that site. There are so many things on there that I wouldn’t even think about listing that ends up selling for $100’s! It’s crazy…I don’t need state-shaped corn flakes, but I could use some women’s golf equipment. Kecia and James talk about wanting to go, but they’d have to get them some clubs first.

Old Navy

My family (well, the girls) and I love shopping at Old Navy. We are all big women, and cannot wear the skinny clothing that most stores sell. However, we can always find something at Old Navy. They have very cute, fashionable items, and they are more affordable than Gap and American Eagle. Krista has been buying a lot of their “Sweetheart” jeans because they fit better than anyone else’s jeans. I like getting cheap tops from there. I have many different colors! We prefer to shop in the store, but we never pass up sales on their websites. This store has something for every one and every size!

Which is better?

Do you think titanium rings are more, less, or equally popular than gold? In my opinion, they are more popular. Around here, there aren’t many men who go for yellow gold wedding rings. Some still opt for white gold, but I know of quite a few whose choice of metal is titanium. It’s not wonder…those things are indestructible!W

He’s one already?!?!

A friend of mine has a son that was born on my daughter’s birthday last year, and earlier this month she was going crazy trying to come up with 1st birthday ideas. She wants to have a party, but is racking her brain on what to serve, how to invite, and the biggest problem: what kind of theme. She finally settled  for just blue and green items. Her son isn’t really into any characters yet, so I think that was a good decision (and less expensive!).

My oldest is 24!

Today is Kecia’s birthday. I cannot believe i have a 24 year old daughter already!! Now if I can just get her to have me a couple of grandkids. :) I have no clue what I am going to get her…I offered to help her buy some flooring for her living room. Having Charmin (my granddog) in the house is destroying their carpet. It already had a few stains when they moved in, but it’s now looking worse with paw prints on it.
